A/N: This chapter will include Prom so I know a lot of you wanted to see the Peyton and Ian thing so I'm going to write it, but it isn't my main focus so I will include smaller scenes and then just focus at the actual prom. I'm not sure how prom goes considering I skipped mine, but hopefully this chapter works out well.

So sorry it took so long to update, but I had to re-watch the episode to get my mind straight.


The party slowly winded down. Everyone had left after the video was played, but nobody asked any questions. Brooke was looking at her husband who looked like he was going to faint.

"Lucas, sit down," Haley orders as she sees him sway lightly.

Lucas does as he is told and stares at the floor.

"Nathan and I were together Brooke! We were dating and you decide to have sex with him and then shortly thereafter enter a sexual relationship with his brother. What kind of person does that?" Peyton asks in outrage. "I mean I don't want to think you trapped him into something, but is Sophia really his."

Haley looks at her husband who like Lucas was just staring at the ground. That had never crossed his mind. He never thought that Sophia was biologically his. Could it even be a possibility?"

Brooke turned to face her friend.

"I was not a good person back then alright. I was drunk and he was convenient, but don't you dare tell me that you think I would trap Lucas into something like that."

"I hate to say it," Lucas says after he coughs. "But she does have a point. Before I thought I had nothing to worry about, but that video proved it wrong. Is Sophia mine?"

Brooke ran up to Lucas and kneeled beside him. She could see tears forming in Lucas' eyes and she felt bad that she caused them.

"Of course she is. Sophia is your little girl. I've made plenty of mistakes in my past, but that was not one of them. You are her father and if you need medical results to prove it then so be it. We'll pay for a DNA test, but I am one hundred percent sure that our little girl is in fact ours and not Nathan and I's."

"I just want to go home," Lucas mutters before standing up from the couch and walking out the front door not caring that his wife was crying on the floor. He really needed his baby girl.

Once Lucas leaves, Nathan looks up at his wife.

"I was drunk and it was stupid. I never believed that Sophia was mine. She doesn't even look like me."

Haley shakes her head.

"I don't want to hear it. I just want to get some sleep. We have our high school prom tomorrow, let's just worry about that."

Haley walks out of the room and heads up to the bedroom that she and Nathan were going to sleep in. They didn't want to head to the apartment.

"Peyton let's get you home," Jake says in a tired tone. He just wanted this day to end.

Peyton just follows Jake out the door. She didn't want to talk to Brooke anymore.

-Changes-

Brooke locks the front door to the apartment and makes her way into Sophia's room. She knew her husband was going to be in there after this emotion filled day. Brooke saw Lucas sitting in the chair with Sophia cuddled up asleep on his chest. Lucas' eyes were on Sophia's breathing.

"I know she's mine," Lucas whispers when he hears his wife enter the room. "But there was a split second where I didn't and it scared the hell out of me. She's the perfect mixture of you and me. The thought of her not being mine breaks my heart," Lucas gets up from the chair and tucks his daughter into bed. "I just don't like the doubt in my mind is all."

"She's yours," Brooke says in a stern tone. "I would never be the kind of person to trap someone into something as taking care of a child."

Lucas nods his head and wraps his arms around his wife.

"Let's go to bed. Prom is tomorrow."

Brooke groans.

"I'm so not looking forward to it."

-Changes-

The gang all gathered around the table watching their classmates dance with their dates. Mouth and Rachel were standing close together as well as Haley and Nathan. Brooke and Lucas were lovingly smiling at each other. That's when they noticed that Jake had walked in all by himself.

"Where's Peyton?" Brooke asks.

Jake shrugs his shoulders.

"I went to pick her up, but she didn't answer the door. It's okay though. Yesterday, she told me she didn't want to go to Prom, but I had to try."

"Peyton and I have been dreaming about Prom since we were kids," Brooke explains.

"Maybe she's still hurt," Nathan states. "I apologized to her earlier, but she was kind of mean. I just took at as normal Peyton attitude."

Brooke turns to her husband with a sweet smile.

"I need to borrow the car."

Lucas raises an eyebrow.

"Why?"

"I want to check on Peyton and see if I can get her to come. She's my best friend Luke. I don't want to lose her to something that happened in the past that I can't change."

Lucas pulled out his keys and handed them to his wife.

"If there is any trouble, just call me, but hurry back. I would like to dance with my wife at Prom at some point."

"Thank you husband," Brooke says before brushing her lips over Lucas' and quickly hurrying out of the gym.

"Are you sure putting Peyton and Brooke in the same room is going to be okay?" Rachel questions. Rachel looks at the looks she is getting and snorts. "Oh come on you all were thinking it. I just had the balls to say it."

-Changes-

It didn't take long for Brooke to reach Peyton's house. She knew that her friend was there because her car was in the driveway. Brooke had searched everywhere in the house calling her name. Brooke approached the basement stairs and sighed. The door was open, but she didn't really want to go down there.

"Hide in your creepy basement because you know I hate it. Too bad. I'm coming down anyway."

Brooke walks down the stairs and doesn't notice that fake Derek is hiding beneath them. Brooke turns the corner and sees Peyton strapped to a chair.

"Oh my god."

Brooke screams when she gets grabbed from behind.

"Well, well, if it isn't Brooke Davis or should I say Brooke Scott?"

"Get off me!"

Fake Derek shakes his head.

"I'd cooperate Brooke unless you want your daughter to grow up without her mommy."

Peyton screams her name from behind the cloth stuck in her mouth. Fake Derek chokes Brooke harder.

-Changes-

"How has your night been so far?" Mouth asks his date with a smile. He and Rachel decided to ditch the dance floor and to walk around the school.

"Not to sound corny, but this is better than I imagined. It's like my world is better now that you are in. I don't feel so hurt anymore."

"I'm glad I could help. I really like you Rachel and I'm glad that you took a shot with me."

Rachel stopped Mouth from walking away. She leans down and kisses him softly.

"The night isn't over yet," Rachel says with a grin.

-Changes-

Fake Derek ties Brooke into a chair next to Peyton.

"It's a good thing I brought extra rope."

"Untie me you freak!" Brooke demands after she manages to get the cloth that fake Derek had shoved in her mouth.

"Figures you'd be good with your mouth," Fake Derek comments.

Fake Derek walks over to Peyton and removes the cloth from Peyton's mouth.

"No one is going to hear you."

Peyton and Brooke both scream.

"HELP!"

"You know Peyton? You really shouldn't play your music so loud!"

Fake Derek turns on the music as loud as it goes. Brooke and Peyton continue to scream for help.

-Changes-

Haley yawned in her seat while watching her husband getting her something to drink. The closer it got to her due date the more tired she seemed. She just wanted her son to be born.

Nathan kisses Haley softly and hands her a drink.

"It's punch."

Haley takes a sip and grimaces.

"Oh, honey, that isn't punch."

A random kid comes up to the table.

"I know isn't it great? I spiked the punch."

Nathan looked at the teen in anger.

"You spiked the punch, my wife is pregnant you idiot," Nathan says as he grabs the kid.

"Dude, its prom."

Nathan lets go of the kid's shirt and sighs in frustration. He turns to his wife.

"Yeah Nathan, its prom."

-Changes-

Brooke and Peyton manage to get away because Peyton played into Fake Derek's hands. She pretended to like him in order to get him to trust her and when he did she stabbed him before untying Brooke and running upstairs before Brooke had a chance to get fully free. Derek follows Peyton.

Derek follows Peyton upstairs where Peyton hides in her room. Derek slams on the door.

"Open the door Peyton! You already know I can break it down."

Derek tires the knob and is surprised that it's unlocked. Derek opens the door and looks around the dark room.

"You forgot to lock it."

"I didn't forget," Peyton says as she comes from behind the door. She tasers Derek in the neck.

"Doesn't feel too good does it? I'm not going to run from you anymore Derek," Peyton says as she watches him fall to the ground. "I'm not gonna run anymore period. Now get up!"

Peyton was wearing boxing gloves and holding the out in front of her getting ready to fight. Derek stands up. Peyton punches him a few times and knocks him on the ground. Derek laughs.

"You've been training," Derek says as he barely gets up from the floor.

"That's right," Peyton responds. "With my real brother. He taught me this," Peyton says as she punches him in the gut and then in the face causing Derek to hit the wall and slide down to the ground.

Peyton bends down to him.

"Now that was for making me afraid to sleep at night, you creepy hair-smelling son of a bitch!" she yells as she prepares to swing.

Derek stops her and grabs her by the throat as he stands up. Derek head butts her to the bed. Peyton cries out and falls onto her back. Derek rips her dress and loosens his tie as he climbs on top of her.

"Did you really think that you could beat me?" Derek asks as he grabs onto Peyton's wrists while she cries. "A girl, huh?"

"How about two girls?" Brooke asks as she hits Derek on the back with an object. Derek pushes Brooke to the ground and Peyton jumps on his back.

"Peyton, what do I do?"

"Just kick him!"

The girls end up brining their fight into the hallway and towards the stairs. Brooke kneels by the stairs after Derek pushes her.

"Peyton, eighth grade cheer camp."

Peyton kicks Derek and he falls over Brooke and down the stairs. The girls slowly retreat down the stairs step by step.

"I hated the bottom of that pyramid," Brooke complains out of breath.

"Yeah I know. You bitched about it all summer."

Brooke grabs onto Peyton's arm.

"Peyton be careful. He's gonna lunge. They always lunge."

Derek starts to lunge, but Peyton kicks him back to the wall at the end of the stairs.

"I'm gonna call 911."

"Brooke, wait," Peyton pleads. "Give me five minutes."

Brooke nods her head and retreats the rest of the way down the stairs while Peyton kicks Derek, over and over again

-Changes-

Lucas takes a seat next to Jake. He knew how Jake was feeling. His date was missing too and on top of all of that he was missing his little girl which he assumes that Jake was as well.

"This prom sucks," Jake comments. "I miss Peyton."

"I miss Brooke and truthfully I never thought that prom was such a big deal. And I honestly don't know how long it's going to take for Brooke to get Peyton. They could be fighting each other right now."

Jake raises an eyebrow.

"There's nothing worse than that right?"

-Changes-

Derek is pulled away in a stretcher and Peyton and Brooke are sitting on the steps wrapped in blankets.

"The moment he mentioned my daughter, my heart just froze."

Peyton looks to her friend.

"Yeah, but he was just doing it to scare you. Now he is going to be in jail for a very long time."

"You saved me," Peyton comments after a few minutes of silence.

"You saved me, too and Sophia doesn't have to grow up not knowing her mother."

Peyton smiles and nods her head.

"It sucks when you grow up without a mother."

"I guess now its hoes over psychos."

Peyton chuckles and they fist bump each other. Peyton lays her head on Brooke's shoulder.

"So, where do we go from here?" Brooke questions.

"Prom."

Brooke laughs.

"Okay."

-Changes-

Jake and Lucas look towards the front of the gym and frown. They saw their significant others appearance and had no idea what was going on. They were just speechless.

"Are you ready for this Brooke Scott?"

Brooke locks arms with Peyton.

"Welcome to prom P. Sawyer."

The girls walk forward as Bevin takes a stand upstage to get ready for an announcement.

"Attention everyone, gather around the stage. It's time to announce our prom queen. The envelope please…All right. And this year's prom queen. Brooke Scott!"

Brooke looks surprised and everyone claps for her not caring what she looks like. It was a great ending from the start of a horrific night.
