It was like she had been in this hospital for ever. Waiting and waiting over again. She was so tired, she didn't even have the strengh to cry or to sleep anymore. She looked pale and weak. Brooke Davis looked like a ghost, wandering in the Tree Hill hospital waiting room. She and Karen had spend the night there, waiting for the doctors to tell them about Lucas, but they never came. All they knew what that he was in intensives cares. It was morning now, Brooke could tell by looking at the window but she didn't really care. Karen was asleep on the couch. How could she sleep, that was a mystery to Brooke who had spent the night thinking about her and Lucas, about how badly she wanted this relationship to work, she even had caught herself thinking about the names of their futur babies. She saw Haley and Nathan walking in the hallway. Haley immediately hugged her tightly and kissed her on the cheek and Nathan joined their hugging. No words needed to be said.

"I have some news about Lucas Scott." A doctor said, approching them.

Karen jumped from the couch and got up. Brooke, Haley and Nathan let go of each others.

"He got out of intensives cares, he's going to be okay soon. He is in a single room now, you can see him but make sure to let him rest." He added.

Everyone smiled with relief. Lucas would make it, that was for sure now.

Karen took Brooke's hand and told her: "Let's go see him."

"No, I—I think, I think Haley should go." She replied.

Haley looked shocked, she didn't understand why Brooke didn't want to see her boyfriend. "Are you sure?" She asked.

Brooke nodded and said: "He'll be happy to see you." They both hugged and Karen and Haley followed the doctor to Lucas' room.

Nathan and Brooke sat down face to face in the waiting room.

"You look like hell." Nathan said.

"Yeah, I know you're more into the blondies, Peyton, Haley..." She replied.

"It's not what I meant Brooke." He told her. "I'm concerned about you. You haven't sleep in almost two days, I'm sure you didn't eat anything. You should go home and rest. Lucas' fine now."

"I don't have a home Nathan..." She whispered.

He got up and walked close to her. "Let's go see him."

"No, I can't." Brooke replied.

"What you can't? What's wrong with you?" He asked.

"Last time I went to see him, he had another heart attack... I don't want it to happen again." She explained.

"So what, you're going to ignore him for the rest of his life?" He asked again.

She srugged.

"And you think this is your fault if he has an heart attack? That's stupid Brooke. The only thing he can risk with you is to have a broken heart, not a heart attack." He said.

She gave him a look and shook her head. This was enough for Nathan, he knew what Brooke loved Lucas and that Lucas loved her back and he wanted the both of them to share the same happiness that he was sharing with Haley. He grabbed her by the arm and said firmly: "Let's go." Brooke tried to get away from his grasp but he was too strong and she knew he wouldn't let her go until she was in Lucas' room, that's how stubborn the Scotts were.

Nathan asked to a nurse the number and the direction of Lucas' room, not letting Brooke go away from him. When they arrived, Brooke stopped at the doorway and Nathan got into the room next to Haley. Lucas was sleeping and Karen was holding his hand. Nathan got closer to him and whispered in his ear: "Glad you're okay bro."

Haley smiled and her husband planted a kiss on her forehead and she said: "Karen, you sould go home, it's not good for you and the baby not to rest."

Karen nodded and Brooke said: "I'll stay here and keep an eye on him, I'll call you later and let you know about him."

"Thank you Brooke." Karen told her.

They all kissed or hugged Brooke goodbye and left.

Brooke stood there, at the doorway, looking at Lucas. She was so happy that he was okay now, so relieved but still she couldn't get into the room. She remembered how scared she was when he went after Nathan into the school the day of the shooting, the day Keith died. She went off of her thoughts when she saw Lucas stirring. He looked around the room, he looked scared and alone. When his eyes met Brooke's, he smiled. Brooked smiled back at him and without thinking about the last time she got into his hospital room she walked close to him.

"Hey..." He whispered.

"Shh, please Luke don't talk, just rest okay. You scared the hell out of me, I don't want this to happen again. Please close your eyes and get some more sleep." She ordered him gently.

"Rest with me, you look tired." He whispered again. That was all about Lucas, carrying after the others when he was the one who needed to be taken care of.

"God Lucas, can't you just rest and stop talking?" She said. "No until you lay down next to me." He murmured.

"First of all this is completly forbidden and second of all please stop talking, you need to rest." She explained him again.

"If you don't lie with me, I'll to try to get up and run in the hallway." He threatened with a smile.

Brooke rolled her eyes and gave in, she knew he would do anything to reach his goal. She crawled carefully in bed with him. She closed her eyes, it was feeling so good to be next to him again. She inhaled his scent deeply and felt him kissing her head.

"I love you Brooke Davis." He said.

"Not that I don't like to hear you saying these kind of things but please, pretty please, you have to rest." She told him, looking at him in the eyes. "And I love you too Lucas Scott." She added, planting a kiss on his lips. Lucas smiled at her and nodded.

"Don't be scared." He said. "I feel a lot more better now."

"I'm scared, I can't help it." She replied.

He reached for her hand and placed it on his heart. "Here, it's beating, you can feel it and it's never going to stop, not now that I have you in my life."

She smiled and whispered: "Let's sleep for a while now."

Lucas kissed her head once again and nodded. He was exhausted, but he wanted to make sure that Brooke was okay. He closed his eyes and fell asleep immediately. As for Brooke, she spent about 30 minutes listening and feeling Lucas' heart beating. Afterwards she drifted off to sleep, she was exhausted as well, now that Lucas was okay, she could get some sleep. She felt good and secure in his arms, she always did.

Suddenly she jumped when a nurse entered the room to check on Lucas.

"Miss, I don't think this is allowed..." The nurse said.

Brooke rubbed her eyes and she was about to say something when the nurse stopped her with her hand and said: "Let's just say I didn't see you here."

"Thank you." Brooke whispered.

The nurse smiled and went off the room closing the door.

Brooke cuddled back close to Lucas, she put her hand on her heart and she went back to sleep, in her boyfriend arms.

------------

Later that day, Brooke woke up. She felt Lucas' hand caressing her waist under her shirt. She smiled, she was feeling so good with him, she felt warm and safe.

"I thought you were supposed to sleep." She softly told him.

"Coudn't, you kept snoring." He replied with a wide smile.

Normaly she would have punch him playfully in the arm for that but this time she just turned to look at him in the eyes and she asked: "How do you feel?"

"I feel in love with the most beautiful and carrying girl in the world." He replied.

"It's not what I meant." She told him.

"I know, I just don't want you to worry about me Brooke." He told her.

"I can't help it, I love you, I care about, I worry about you." She said. "Now please, no more lies, just tell me how you feel." She added.

"I feel tired, but I'm good Brooke, I'm not going to leave you ever again." He explained.

"Promise?" She asked, hopefully with tears forming in her eyes.

Lucas nodded and said: "I promise."

Brooke gave him a peak on the lips.

"Although, maybe there is something you could do to make me feel better." He said.

Brooked nodded and waited for him to tell her.

"Well, a kiss would be great, but a real kiss you know, the kind you save for when it's just the two of us." He said.

"Lucas Scott you're unbelievable." Brooke said as she bent down to give him this special kiss she saved for him. They hear to door of the room opening and Brooke broke apart. Lucas sighted loudly, really disappointed that they couldn't share this moment alone. Brooke recognized the doctor she was about to slap entering the room. She jumped off the bed and said: "I'm going to get something to drink." With that she stormed out of the room. She knew visitors weren't allowed to stay for more than 20 minutes in the patients' room, she couldn't even think about how forbidden is could be to slid in a patient's bed and to give him hell of a kiss.

"Well, I think you're getting better Lucas." The doctor said. "You'll be home soon."

"Thanks doctor." Lucas replied.

The doctor was about to go out of the room when he saw Peyton next to the door.

"You're a lucky guy to have all those pretty girls watching over you." He said before leaving.

Both of Lucas and Peyton smiled.

"Is it okay if I come in?" Peyton asked.

"Yeah, it's okay, come here." Lucas told her.

She entered the room and sat down on his bed. She held her hand and kissed his forehead.

All they could hear was Brooke's cup of coffee falling on the floor at the entrance of the room. She looked at them, shook her head and went away.
