Episode 20 Ch. 5 The Dream's the Thing

Lucas and Peyton are sitting in the waiting room, "Thank God Brooke's okay."

"You can go see her if you want," Lucas told her.

"No I'm right where I want to be." Peyton kissed his forehead.

"Keith's lying to us."

"Luke," Peyton didn't want to talk about Keith. It was too painful to talk about.

"It's all my fault."

"You have to stop blaming yourself."

"I can't when it's my fault. We should have grounded him, and locked him in his room like you wanted to do."

Peyton shook her head, "That wouldn't have stopped this. Stop worrying honey. When we get home we will figure out all of this, but right now we just have to stay strong for Lily."

Lucas squeezed her hand and nodded his head in agreement. "We have to be strong for Lily."

………………………………

Lily and Jenny are walking downstairs. Jenny is wearing a very revealing black dress while Lily is wearing her blue jean jacket buttoned up to the top and skirt with leggings. "Oh wow you two look cute," Karen told them.

"Thanks mom."

"You going anywhere special?"

"Just to this party," Lily told her mom. They had a very trusting relationship.

"Oh well be careful and have fun," Karen didn't like the fact that her daughter was going to a party, but she trusted Lily.

"We will," Jenny smiled.

Keith walked in, "There's my girl. Where you going?"

"A party," Lily told him.

"Oh okay," Keith smiled. He wasn't fond of the idea, but he was going to trust his daughter.

Lily gave her dad a hug, "Don't worry daddy everything is going to be okay. I promise. Bye guys I love you."

"We love you too," Keith smiled. His daughter was everything to him.

Keith walked over to Karen who was fixing a salad. "I love you wife," he smiled as he kissed her neck.

"I love you too." She smiled and held her hands out, "This is everything I have ever wanted. We're lucky that we have each other."

"I know some people never get this lucky. I'll tell ya Karen if I was to die tomorrow I would die a happy man." He kissed her again.

"Oh Keith Scott you are never allowed to leave me."

They kissed again.

…………………………………….

Lily and Jenny arrive at Jamie's house. "Hey boyfriend," Jenny smiled and then kissed Jamie.

"You are so damn hot," he smiled.

"James Lucas Scott watch your mouth," Haley demanded as she walked into the living room. "Aw there's my favorite daughter in law." Haley hugged Jenny.

"We're not married mom," Jamie told her.

"Yeah well one day," Haley hoped. She loved Jenny, and she was good for Jamie. "Where are you guys headed?"

"To the library," Jamie joked.

"You probably don't even know where the library is," Lily smiled.

Haley laughed, "Have fun at the party."

"How did ya know?" Jamie wondered.

"I'm magic," Haley smiled and kissed her son's forehead. "Be good and take care of Lily."

"I don't need to taken care of Hales," Lily told her. Everyone thought it was there job to protect her, but she didn't need to be protected.

"I know Lily, but I got to give him something to do. I'll see you guys at twelve James Lucas Scott," She told him.

He hated having a curfew, "Mom," he groaned.

"You want to make it eleven," she smiled knowing what his answer was going to be.

"See ya at twelve," he said sadly.

………………………………….

Nathan walks back into the waiting room. "How is she?" Isabella asked first.

"Mommy Brooke has to be okay," Millie said.

"Yeah, when can we see her?" Eligh wondered.

"Your mom is doing better. She is going to be okay, but she is resting right now so no visitors."

"But as soon as she wakes up," Millie started to talk.

"Yeah as soon as she wakes up everyone can see her. She can't wait to see you guys." Nathan smiled.

Jamie walked up to his dad, "Hey dad can we talk?"

They walked out of the waiting room, "What's up son?"

"I um know that this isn't the best time, but I want to go on tour with Becky."

"Excuse me."

"Mia made it to where I can go with her and sing a duet. Can I go?"

"I thought the tour leaves soon."

"Yeah in two weeks," Jamie told him.

"You can't go Jamie. You have school. This is your senior year."

"But dad this is a chance of a lifetime."

"Well it will have to be some other lifetime for you because you can't miss the rest of your senior year. That is out of the question," Nathan told him.

"Dad," Jamie pleaded.

"Sorry buddy, but my decision is final." Nathan walked off without hearing anything else from Jamie.

………………………………..

Lily, Jamie, and Jenny are at the party. Lily is looking for Jeremy. "Give it up Lil, he is probably with Breanne."

"He invited me Jenny," Lily told her.

"Well he's a jerk. Most guys are."

"Hey," Jamie pouted.

"You're a jerk Jamie," she informed him. "But you are my jerk." She kissed him.

"I'm gonna go upstairs. He might be up there." Lily told them as she made her way upstairs.

"Yeah with Breanne," Jenny said under her breath.

Lily walked upstairs and checked the room. She finally came to the one on the end, and when she opened it she was devastated to see Jeremy and Breanne having sex. "Oh My God," she slammed the door.

Jenny had been right. She hated it when Jenny was right.

………………………………….

Keith is outside of the hospital trying to think of ways to get himself out of his mess. He sees Trey walking towards him. "Hey man I saw what you did to Vance. I think he's dead." Keith told him.

"Yeah I know the bastard is dead. That's why I'm here."

"They are going to arrest you Trey. You better get out of town."

"I didn't want to have to do this to you man, but I can't go to jail."

"What are you talking about?" Keith was confused.

"I didn't kill Vance, Keith. You did. I saw you," Trey played dumb.

"What are you talking about? I didn't even know he had been shot."

"Yeah you did. You pulled the trigger. We all saw you do it."

Keith finally realized that everything had been a set up. "You lying son of a bitch," Keith went to hit him.

"I wouldn't do that Keith," Trey backed away. "You wouldn't want to add to your sentence." Trey walked away leaving Keith dumbfounded. He couldn't believe he had walked into their trap.

One More Chapter left, and I will probably post it tonight. Hope you guys enjoy
