Jake finally had some time alone to deal with what's happened. Brooke had been staying with them for the past few days, but Brooke was booked on a flight to return home to California in only a few days. Peyton couldn't deal with Brooke going but she would never say. Brooke and Peyton had taken Jenny to the park for a while. Jake was in his and Peyton's room. He noticed the box. Brooke and Peyton didn't put it away after their little heart to heart. He opened it and saw everything, the pictures and Peyton's list. He wanted her to be ok. He knew one way or another. He would make her wishes come true.


"Abi, that's in the past." Lucas told her. She was worried about him and Brooke. Would he want her back? She couldn't let that happen.

"I want you" he told her. He was only saying what she wanted to hear. Deep down he wanted Brooke.

"Prove it" she said. She was very cunning. She wanted Lucas to sleep with her. Lucas didn't want to; he didn't want to betray Brooke. But he did anyway, he didn't want any trouble.


Jenny was playing on the swings while Peyton and Brooke were sitting on a bench in the hot sun.

"Be careful sweetheart" Peyton shouted to Jenny.

"You really care for her, don't you?"

"Yeah, she's such a beautiful girl, and I can't imagine life without her or Jake. I hope they'll be ok when I'm gone"

"P. Sawyer don't you dare talk like that"

"I'm sorry; it's just hard not to think about it."

Peyton and Brooke shared a hug. Jenny ran over to them, it was time to go.

"Please don't leave me mommy. I love you." Jenny said, she had been told that Peyton was ill and at some point may not be there anymore, but she didn't really understand. She would hold on tight to stop her going anywhere.


"Ok, see you then" Jake said putting the phone down. He had just spoken to Nathan, and before that Haley. He had told them about the cancer and Peyton's wishes. He was going to make her wishes come true some how. He wasn't about to loose the girl he loved.


Abi was looking through Lucas' things; she came across pictures of Lucas and Brooke together. She knew for a fact that she would loose Lucas, and she couldn't let that happen.


"Brooke, I'm sorry, I just guessed you would have moved on. So I did too"

"Luke, it doesn't bother me that you have a girlfriend" That was a lie straight away. "What bothers me is that I wrote to you and you didn't even bother to call. FOR THREE YEARS!" Brooke said getting quite pissed off.

"Brooke.."

"Lucas, it would have been ok if you didn't feel what I did, but at least a call!"

"Brooke, I never read your letter" Lucas said.

"So...you never got it?" she asked.

"Never opened it. I was scared too" he confessed.

"Luke.."

"Brooke, I don't know what that letter said, and I don't care. I'm just glad you're here"

Lucas moved forward and kissed Brooke. She was surprised but it was something she wanted too. They broke apart, she looked at him and he was there like her prayers had been answered.

"I love you" he said looking at her.

"I love you too"

She closed her eyes as she moved forward; her lips touched his as they kissed.


Haley arrived at the airport without her daughter. She didn't want a little girl to see someone suffer that much. As Haley walked down ready to get a taxi, she could have sworn she saw Nathan. Oh maybe just her imagination. A taxi pulled up and she went to open the door, but so did someone else. She went to yell at them for taking her cab, until she looked up and she was right. It was Nathan. They both stared for a while, and considering they were both going to Tree Hill so they shared the cab. On the way they talked about Peyton, how life had changed, and..

"How my-" Nathan said.

"Your daughter!" Haley said sounding pissed off.

"Yeah" he said slightly embarrassed.

"She's fine. Missing her father"

They were there. Getting out of the cab, Nathan paid. Jake walked out to meet them. He was quite shocked to see them together, but he was just glad they were here. They walked into the house and Peyton was really surprised-but it was a good surprise. They sat down and talked.


Lucas walked into his room and Abi was already there. His was going to break up with her so he could be with Brooke. But it was harder then he thought.

"Abi, your great but-"

"But you're breaking up with me? Right?"

"Umm..yeah. I'm sorry"

"You love her, don't you?" she was referring to Brooke. He couldn't lie to her, so he nodded.

"Is she worth it?"

"Yeah, I think she is"

"Lucas, I love you, we had something special"

"Abi, you know we didn't"

Time for revenge she thought to herself.

"Maybe you could explain that to your kid when it's older"

"What the hell?"

"I'm pregnant!" she announced.
