A/N-This chapter is getting up later than I originally planned, but I managed to get it up so I hope you like it.


Part 2 Ch. 8 Sickness

"Don't you think this is weird?" Chelsea whispers in her brother's ear.

Chase looks at Skye and Mark sitting at their lunch table together.

"It's been a month Chelsea of course it's weird."

"They have one thing in common and that person is Brianna."

Chelsea sighs and smiles politely when Chelsea and Chase reach the table.

"Hey guys," Skye says with a small smile.

Everyone at the table knew that Skye was full of it. Her smiles never reached her eyes and she hasn't hung around anybody besides Mark which was a surprise in its own.

"Okay, this is weird," Chelsea states as she sits down.

Skye and Mark look up from their lunch and frown. Chase pinches his sister in her arm.

"Ow, you ass," Chelsea looks at Skye. "Look, I know you are hurting, but you belong with Brianna it's as simple as that. And you," Chelsea looks at Mark. "You are Brianna's friend emphasis on the friend, okay? She was confused or something, but you don't have Brianna's heart," Chelsea points at Skye. "She does, so live with it."

Skye smiles softly and Mark glares.

"What the hell do you know?"

Chase shakes his head, but remains quiet. Chelsea smirks at Mark. She never liked him.

"Considering I am the only one at this table that still has contact with Brianna, I would say a lot."

"What did she tell you?"

"How is she?"

Those two questions came out of the people in front of her.

"Mark, do you want to know the reason why I know that Brianna still has Skye in her heart? It isn't because she told me it's because the first question that came out of Skye's mouth was how is she whereas you said what did she tell you. It's clear to me who really has love for Brianna and it isn't you."

Mark slams his hand on the table shocking everyone. He doesn't say a word; he just gets up and leaves.

"Why do you talk to him?" Chelsea asks softly.

"Because he knows what I am feeling."

"Honey, I don't think he does."

"I'll just leave you two alone," Chase says as he gets up from the table to leave the two girls to talk.

"I know I hurt her. I don't know why I did what I did, but she won't listen to me. I've barely spoken to her a month, a month Chelsea. The longest we used to go talking to each other was like twelve hours. It sucks."

"She's hurting right now. She cheated on Mark with you and when she thought that you and she where reconciling you turn it around on her. She's hurting. You have to give her time."

"I've given her a month."

"Being in love can be easy, but fixing a broken heart takes awhile and for some it takes a lifetime."

"I haven't seen at school all week."

Chelsea looks at her food.

"She's sick. I think she got the flu."

"Honey, you have to take this," Peyton says holding out a spoon filled with liquid in front of Brianna's face.

"I don't wanna," Brianna whines in a nasally voice. Brianna turns around and Peyton sighs.

Peyton rubs Brianna's back.

"I know it doesn't taste very good, but Brianna you have to take it to get better. Please, can you take it for me?"

Brianna moans and turns around with a groan. She opens her mouth and Peyton gives her the medicine. After taking the medicine, Brianna closes her eyes and shortly after she falls asleep. Peyton smiles and quietly leaves the room.

Peyton finds Brooke sitting on her bed looking over remedies to get over the flu.

"Baby, what are you doing?" Peyton says before yawning and sitting down next to her wife.

"I feel bad that I can't physically help Brianna get better so I was looking stuff up."

Peyton nods her head and glances at the clock on her wife's bedside. She sighs.

"It seriously took me over a half hour to get her to take that medicine!"

Brooke laughs and closes her laptop and sets it on her bedside table.

"It did, but I think most kids are whiney when they are sick. I know I was, but my parents were never around."

Peyton kisses Brooke softly and smiles.

"I think it's kind of funny."

Brooke looks at Peyton with a raised eyebrow.

"Seriously, she just got off of her three week grounding and she was only out for one day and then she gets the flu and she has been bed ridden for almost a week, poor girl."

"You just said you thought it was funny."

Peyton smiles.

"I did, but that doesn't mean I don't feel sorry for her. I'm just glad I got my flu shot."

Brooke rolls her eyes and lies down on the bed. She rests her hands on her stomach.

"Only one more month," Peyton mentions.

"I know and about that. When are you going to let me see the nursery you have spending so much time on?"

"It's almost finished. I promise."

Brooke nods her head.

"Did you hear anything back from that musician you wanted to sign?"

Peyton sighs and nods her head.

"Yes, and she still is thinking about it, but she's been at school so she can't do anything right now and I understand that."

"Have you found anybody else?"

Peyton shakes her head.

"No, but right now my family is my top priority," Peyton says before scooting down and kisses Brooke's belly softly, "You, Brianna, and Evan."

A/N-Well hope you enjoyed that chapter. I'm still trying to figure out what I want to do with Mark and some have said to kill him off, but I think that would screw Brianna up a little bit considering she has lost so many people already so I need ideas for Mark….Help please and if you do I can give a few sneak peeks for some upcoming chapters.
