A/N: This should've been up on Wednesday, but I am currently a volunteer for a program this summer so my hours are kind of wacky. I was just so tired to write yesterday…So, here is what I have been thinking and this is only for the next three months or so, but I was thinking that if you don't see an update for any one of my stories on the day they are supposed to be updated then expect to see one on Friday, Saturday or Sunday. That way I don't have to skip a week, you just have to wait a few days.

The poll results are in and I will be telling you guys the results of the poll.

Here is the order that I will be writing these stories…D, B, E, C, A

D=29 Votes, B=25 Votes, E=21 Votes, C=14 Votes, A=10 Votes

Part 3 Ch. 2: Married at School

Since coming home, Brianna and Skye have spent very little time apart. Brooke and Peyton were hesitant at first because Brianna was their daughter, but when Brianna played the married card, Brooke and Peyton let them be.

Ty and Melissa were also getting used to the fact that their pseudo daughter was married as well. Being married young themselves, they didn't believe it was a right fit for Skyler.

It was the first day back to school from Spring Break and Brianna and Skye were nervous about it. It's not every day that a couple who recently just got back together before Spring Break comes back from Spring Break married. It just doesn't happen.

Skye and Brianna had driven to school. They didn't feel like walking. Both girls had kept their wedding rings on and they had decided not to tell anybody, but that doesn't stop the rumors from getting around.

Brianna parks the car into the school parking lot and shuts off the car.

"What are the odds that we got married not even being talked about in school?"

"Small town wifey, news travels fast around here, but I do need to go to the office to pick up my new locker combo considering my locker has now moved to right next to yours."

"Alright then Skyler Evans, let's get to class."

Skye grins and gets out of the car.

-I Need You Now-

Brooke walked into her daughter's room with a basket full of clean clothes. Peyton had followed Brooke in there carrying Evan in her arms.

"Brooke, what are you doing?"

"Laundry, that's what I'm doing."

Peyton sat Evan on the floor and shut the bedroom door.

"Brooke, I can't read your emotions at the moment. What's going on with you?"

Brooke looked at the clothes in the basket and frowned.

"This shirt isn't Brianna's, its Skyler's shirt," Brooke places the shirt on the bed and throws the basket down on the floor. Evan looks up at his mom with a startled expression on his face. Peyton raises an eyebrow at her wife's behavior and Brooke pouts as she sits on her daughter's bed. "I don't like this Peyton. I don't like it at all. She's too young."

"Honey, if we made them dissolve their marriage what's to say that they wouldn't go out to do it again. We can't stop them Brooke. They're eighteen years old. If our parents refused for us to get married, what would you have done?"

"I would've married you anyway, but Peyton, that's not the point. I don't love my parents, but Brianna loves us."

"This doesn't have anything to do with love," Brooke turns to her wife with a slight smirk. Peyton rolls her eyes. "Okay, our love for Brianna doesn't play into this situation. This is about Skyler and Brianna who might I mention we have been rooting for all along."

"I know, but it was our daughter Peyton," Brooke says while tears formed in her eyes. "We've only had her in our lives for not even three years. I wanted to be the one to make her wedding dress. I wanted to be the one to help plan her wedding. I wanted to dance with you at her wedding. I just wanted to be there. I really wanted to be there."

Peyton gathers her crying wife into her arms. She smiles down at her son who had walked his way over to his mothers sensing that one of them was sad.

"No cry!"

Brooke sniffles and smiles down at her baby boy.

"Mommy won't cry anymore just promise to invite us to your wedding."

"Okay!" Evan says while clapping his hands, happy that his mother wasn't crying anymore.

-I Need You Now-

It took all of first hour before the rumors spread like a wildfire in California. Of course all of it was speculation because Brianna and Skye refused to comment on it. They wanted their friends to know first.

Skye and Brianna grabbed their lunches and sat down at their normal table. Chelsea and Chase hadn't arrived yet, but when they did, Brianna and Skye remained quiet while Chelsea began to babble. Chase stared at their hands.

"Can you believe that outrageous rumor about you and Skye getting married? I mean you two are in high school. Why would you tie yourselves to each other for eternity?"

Chase tapped at his sister's shoulder.

"Chels, don't say anymore," Chase warned.

Chelsea looked at her twin in confusion.

"Why?"

Chase pointed to Skye and Brianna who held up their hands revealing their wedding rings. Chelsea's eyes widen in surprise and she goes quiet. She had no idea what to say.

"We were in Vegas. We got drunk and the next morning we woke up married," Brianna explained.

"That's pretty much the whole story except that our families weren't really happy with what we did, but we are staying married and nothing anybody can say or do will change that."

"I can honestly say that I am happy for you two. You are in love with each other and we all knew it would happen eventually. Congratulations, you two," Chase says with a smile.

"Yeah, congrats," Chelsea says as she finally found the words to talk.

-I Need You Now-

When Skye and Brianna arrived at the Sawyer household, they both had to bite back a moan when they spotted Ty and Mel's car in the driveway.

"What is this going to be another inquisition?"

Skye looks at her wife and shrugs her shoulders.

"It's better if we just get it over with and then we won't have to worry about it anymore."

Brianna and Skye left their bags in the car and entered the house with disinterest. They didn't want to have to talk about this anymore. They got married. Everybody else had to get over it.

Everyone settled into the living room. Jennifer and Evan were playing on the floor while the adults stood in front of Brianna and Skye who took residence on the couch.

"All of us have talked while you two were in school. We discussed a lot of things and we think that the first thing that you two need is your own apartment," Ty starts.

Skye and Brianna look at each other in surprise.

"Normally I would say jobs to keep up with the rent, but we really want the jobs to come second," Melissa adds in.

"Brianna, we will continue to pay for your car insurance, but with a catch. You have to come up with half of it. The rest is up to you," Peyton finishes.

Brooke drops several newspapers on the table.

"These are all ads for apartments for rent. We suggest that you two go over them and pick the best one for you. All the adults will pay for first and last month's rent and the security deposit, but that is it."

Brianna remained quit after Brooke started talking about apartments. The adults left the room and Skye grabbed a paper from the table.

"What are we interested in?" Skye asks as she flips through the paper.

"Um, I don't care. I'll be right back though. Brooke reminded me of something," Brianna says before leaving the room and heading into her bedroom.

-I Need You Now-

When Brooke had mentions security deposit, everything seemed to click into Brianna's mind. Since her mother's death, everything that involved her had been forgotten or tried to be forgotten in Brianna's mind because it was too hard to remember. The one thing that Brianna could always count on her birth mother was that she was always prepared, for everything. She had plans for tornadoes and hurricanes and hot weather, every sort of situation and Brianna's mother had a plan for it. She even had a plan for Brianna if she had died for before her time, Brianna had forgotten all about it until now.

Brianna went into her room and dug through her desk for a tin box, inside that tin box was a worn out letter and a key. Brianna opened up the letter and sighed. She had only read this letter once and that was when her mother had first died.

My Baby girl,

If you are reading this, then that means that I am now gone and all the preparing in the world couldn't stop this from happening. I am so sorry about that. Just know that I love you very much, both you and your brother oh so much.

I remember when my friends had said that I was too prepared for everything and I believe that they were wrong. You can never be too prepared for anything.

I'm sorry that you weren't prepared for my death. I guess not many people can prepare for something like that.

I just want you and your brother to know that you will do great things in this world and I will be with you the entire way. I'll be your guardian Angel and I'll listen when you're hurt. All you have to do is talk.

Enclosed in this letter is a key to a safety deposit box with your name, Brianna. Everything you will ever need will be in the box, just please don't forget it.

I love you with all my heart,

Mom

Brianna wiped the tears off of her face and folded the letter back up. She picked up the key and examined the name on it. Tree Hill Bank.
