Chapter Nineteen:

It had been two long hours since Haley had discovered her baby girl was gone, her tears wouldn't stop as she held Jamie close to her…he was the only one she could truly hold and protect.

"Mrs. Scott, would you like something to help you sleep?" The doctor came in smiling, she thought Haley was already a wonderful mother but she needed her sleep.

Haley shook her head, "No…I couldn't sleep even with help…not until she's back and safe…what are her chances?"

"She's hasn't gained any weight, which is not bad but it's not good for this situation…all we can is pray that this woman will take care of her…will she?" Tears were falling on Jamie's head and she wiped them away.

"Rachel…shot…Brooke's little boy and attacked Brooke…little Austin almost died in his mommy's arms because of her." Haley sobbed remembering Austin bleeding in Brooke's arms, he was so small and pale.

Nathan put his arms around her, she was in the NICU where Rebecca had been brought so that Haley could be with her babies at the same time watching over them. He'd been on the phone with his mom who was watching the kids at the hotel when he and Lucas had heard Brooke scream, he remembered walking towards the incubator and seeing his little girl missing and the IV tubes that were feeding her on the floor. Brooke was screaming clutching Devin's incubator.

"Oh no! Nurse! Nurse! Nathan! Lucas! Somebody! Help!" She'd screamed as both Lucas and Nathan ran in. Lucas gathered her in his arms and tried to console her as the nurses came in and Nathan demanded to know what his daughter was.

Lucas took Brooke out of the NICU since he couldn't console her, Nathan and the head nurse on duty came out into the hallway. "Where the hell is my daughter!" He yelled, he hoped that she'd gone for some tests and that soon she'd be back in her incubator safe and sound.

The look on Haley's face when she came out of the chapel had broken his heart, and then she walked into the NICU and had broken down. "N…Nathan where is she? Tell me she's okay…where is my baby?" She sobbed in his arms. "Please…please Nathan get her back."

His heart broke again thinking about it, Lucas had taken Brooke to the hotel so she could lay down. After they'd discovered Devin gone the male nurse that had talked to Rachel had confessed to seeing her and that she'd told him her name was Brooke Scott.

Rachel had his baby girl, his sweet little girl with the big brown eyes and long eye lashes and sweet dimples.

Karen was taking all the kids back to Tree Hill where they would be safe, Jake and Peyton along with Brooke and Lucas were staying to help Haley and Nathan and to help look for the baby.

After a lot of coaxing Haley finally laid Jamie in his bed, "Mommy's here…she'll always be here." She whispered softly kissing his brown hair.

His bed was brought into her room, unfortunately Ryan was still too small to be taken out of his incubator until his lungs were fully working and Rebecca was still much to small and weak, her surgery was already scheduled and was just three weeks away and Haley prayed that her Devin would be back by then.

Brooke woke up after a thirty minute nap, she had good bye to her boys and was now lying back in bed. Rachel had used her name to take that baby, she hoped and prayed that where ever Devin was that she was alright.

The baby was lying on a blanket in the backseat of the car screaming, she'd cried ever since Rachel had taken her. "Shut up you brat!" Rachel screamed turning the music up louder as she gunned the engine. "Damn what's that smell? I hope you didn't crap!" Rachel stopped the car and frowned when she saw the police car parking behind her, she swore under her breath, "Can I help you officer?" She said sweetly beginning to change the baby.

"That child needs a car seat, its illegal to drive with a baby that age and no car seat." He said glancing at the baby, for some reason she looked familiar.

Rachel kept smiling through the stink, "Yeah I know we're just on our way to get one."

The officer smiled, "Well I'm sorry ma'am but I cannot allow you to drive with that child and no car seat. Is there anyone you could call?"

Lucas had just gotten out of the shower and dressed when the phone rang, "This is Luke." He said handing Brooke a cup of hot chocolate.

"I need you help." The person on the other line said quietly. Luke grabbed Brooke's arm.

"Okay…what do you want me to do?" He asked worried about the baby.

Brooke was listening on the other extension quietly, "Bring a car seat and meet me." She gave him the directions, "Come alone." She said firmly, she wasn't getting hauled in for kidnapping.

After he hung up Brooke had him in a tight hug, "Please promise that you'll be careful! What if this is all just a trap?"

"I have to try and get the baby back to the hospital regardless, I love you and please do not say anything until Devin's far away from that bitch." He said wrapping his arms around her and kissing her softly. "Go to the hospital and wait outside for me, that way you can get a doctor…It's going to be okay baby." He told her before leaving.

Brooke promised and then sat on the bed after he left, "I hope you get her back safe." She whispered softly missing Lucas and her boys. She slipped into a pair of blue jeans and a white blouse, then she headed to the hospital.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Lucas had stopped by Nathan's and Haley's room and gotten one of the car seats, he wasn't sure how Devin was doing but he grabbed the smallest diaper he could find it would have to do until he got her to the hospital.

Thirty minutes he pulled his rented Dodge Ram 1500 behind a rented car and a police car, had the police already gotten her? If not it wasn't wise to tell them not until he'd gotten far enough away with the baby.

Lucas got out and grabbed the car seat and one of his sons blankets, "Hello officer my name is Lucas Scott I'm the babies uncle." He said shaking the officer's hand and smiling. "Hello Rachel." He said with a smile that didn't reach his eyes. "Now I better get my niece back to her mommy and daddy."

The baby was crying loudly in the back of the car, he lifted her gently into his arms her face was flushed with fever. In her Uncle's strong arms with him murmuring that she was safe now her crying stopped. He laid her in the car seat carefully, it was a little big for her but she wouldn't be in it for long. "Thanks for taking care of her." He said before driving off to call Brooke.

"I got her baby, I'm on my way to the hospital she's got a fever so get the doc out there to meet me." He said calmly, he didn't want to upset her or the baby who was sleeping. After hanging up with his wife he called 9-1-1 and told them about Rachel and he described the car she was driving.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Brooke ran through the halls and found the doctor, "Rachel…she called Lucas at our hotel room and he's got the baby…she has a fever and was crying real bad when he got her. He said you should wait outside so you can get her right away."

"Alright I will, go and tell Nathan and Haley." She said before getting on the elevator to go to the main floor.

Brooke found Haley sound asleep with baby Jamie on the bed beside her, normally she wouldn't have woken her up but she knew that Haley would want to be awake to see her daughter safe and sound.

"Hales…I gotta tell you something…wake up." She said softly shaking Haley's shoulder.

Haley woke up to Brooke's urgent voice, "Wh..what's going on?"

"Rachel called Lucas…he got Devin and he's bringing her here…oh Haley she's going to be alright." Brooke said smiling.

"Is… is she alright?" Brooke knew that she couldn't lie and the baby was so small and no with a fever.

"Lucas said she was screaming when he got her and her diaper was wet, he changed her and noticed it was real red down there and she has a bad fever." Brooke said softly stroking Jamie's dark hair.

Haley wiped away a tear, "Well she's on her way back now and the doctor's will take care of her. Can you help me into the wheel chair? I want to be down there when Lucas gets here and we should find Nathan."

When Lucas arrived he didn't bother parking he'd do that once the baby was in the doctor's arms, he saw the doctor running out to meet him.

"She does have a fever." The doctor said with a frown, "Damn she was just too little to have left…her immune system isn't strong enough." Lucas parked the car while the doctor was putting a new iv into little Devin and lying her back in the heated incubator. "I want antibiotics, we have to get this fever down!"

Because of the infection Haley and Nathan could only watch Devin from the window in the hallway, "Oh Lucas!" Haley cried seeing him walk down the hall, "You saved our baby!"

He gave her a tight hug, "I just wish they could've arrested her right there but I was worried about the baby." Lucas found Brooke sitting in the chapel rubbing her belly, "Are you alright baby?"

"Yeah…just a little angry at myself." She said softly, before the tears fell…"Oh Luke I've been thinking the most selfish and awful things."

Lucas sat down next to her and wrapped his arm around her holding her close, "What cheery?"

"I am so happy that Devin's back…but you were there for Haley and her baby and you…you weren't for me and Austin." She said sobbing against his chest, "I'm horrible for thinking things like that because I know that it wasn't your fault and you'd have been there if you could've been and you were there in the hospital."

He kissed her hair and rubbed her arm, "I would've killed her if I'd been there…sit up." He said softly, "Now listen to me you're not horrible you're the bravest and most wonderful wife and mommy and me and our boys and this little girl adore you. One more thing that witch will NEVER hurt you, or our boys, or this sweet girl." He kissed her wet lips and tasted the salty tears, "I love you so much."

"I love you too Lucas…we both too…right Tammy?" As a answer Tammy gave her mommy a swift kick in the ribs and Brooke laughed at the pain, "Would you mind if you're daughter was a soccer player?"

Lucas laughed, "As long as she's happy she can be whatever she wants." He said softly.
