Episode 20 Ch.1 Lifeless

"They say when you're about to die your life flashes before your eyes," Lily's voice.

Flashes of them loading Brooke into the ambulance, Breanne being wheeled into surgery, and Jacey wiping tears from her eyes, and Lily jammed into the car.

"I'm not sure if that's true, but I guess we'll all find out eventually," Lily's voice again.

Lucas and Peyton are trying to reassure the guest that the wedding is still going to happen.

Isabella is beginning to worry, "Where's my mom?"

Lucas' phone rings, "Hello…Nathan calm down. Yeah we're on our way," panic filled his body.

"Uncle Luke," Isabella said.

"Lucas," she said almost at the same time as Isabella.

"We've all got to get to the hospital. Elizabeth I need you to take care of the guest. Reassure them that everything is okay, and we will call them later."

"My mom has been hurt hasn't she?" Chase asked, but he already knew the answer.

"I don't know the details, but I know we need to go," Lucas honestly told him.

……………….

The two cars were flipped over, and one of them was on fire, and the other was in the ditch. There were people everywhere, and an ambulance finally arrives.

Lucas and Peyton come upon the accident. "What the hell happened here?" he knew it looked bad.

"We should have gone the other way."

"Damn it's a bad accident."

She shook her head, "It doesn't look like there are any survivors."

"Nope," he closed his eyes.

"You should turn around."

"I can't. There are people behind me."

They finally get the person out of the vehicle that is not on fire. It is Lily.

"They got someone out," he takes another look. "Oh my God that's Spencer's car." He takes his seatbelt off, "Lily, Lily," he runs to the car.

"Sir," the police officer stops him.

"That's my sister," he screamed.

"I'm sorry sir you have to stay back."

…………………………

Jacey was pacing back and forth in the hospital waiting room. Keith stood up and put his hands on her shoulders. She pushed him away. "Don't ever touch me again," she yelled at him.

"Jacey," he pleaded with her.

"No, if they die it is all on you."

Keith knew she was right. Breanne and her baby could die and it would be all his fault.

……………………….

Nathan was in another part of the hospital when the Doctor came in. "Are you here for Brooke Davis?"

"Yeah, I'm her fiancé."

"She's going to need surgery to stop the bleeding."

"Can I see her first," Nathan just wanted to see her.

"I don't see why not. She's awake and alert."

"Is she going to be okay?" Nathan asked hoping for a yes.

"We're going to do everything we can for her, but it is hard to tell right now."

The scene changes to Nathan walking into Brooke's hospital room. She opens her eyes to see him. "Hey," she says weakly.

"I love you," he took her hands.

"Let's get married. I want to be your wife."

"Brooke," he shook his head.

"Call the minister and let's get married right now."

"You have to have surgery baby," he didn't want to face the reality.

"I won't have the surgery until I'm your wife," Nathan smiled because although she was sick and could be dying she was still feisty and bossy.
