The next few days were really stressful because Brooke had let is slip that I was pregnant during our argument and because Bevin and Logan had herd what she said just about everyone in school knew that I was pregnant with Lucas' baby. It was pretty funny the stories that were going around one involved Lucas and I in a bathroom at one of the basketball games. Another had us in his bed and his mom catching us and telling Brooke what she had seen. I couldn't help but laugh when I herd that. After a day of letting the rumors spread people had started coming to us asking if they were true. We told them that it was true I was pregnant with his baby and that it was true that he had slept with me during his relationship with Brooke, but we had made it very clear that it hadn't happened at a basketball game, concert, in Lucas' bed, my bed, or at the river-court. After we had talked to a few people Lucas had gotten defensive when people started giving us dirty looks and had started calling me a slut after walking off, he had almost hit one guy who asked me if I was going to have an abortion. I couldn't help but save the guy, I knew that he didn't mean any harm and that he had just been asking. Lucas still didn't like it and had been sending the guy dirty looks all through lunch so far.

"Lucas, are you ever going to stop glaring at him?"

"No."

"Why"

"Peyton he asked you if you were going to have an abortion. That is not something that I am okay with."

"I know that, but Jake was just asking. You know that he has a daughter right?"

"No I didn't know that. I guess I was over reaction wasn't I?"

"Yea I think you were. He knows how hard it is to be a teenage parent, and he was just asking me a question that most pregnant teenagers get asked Luke."

"I know I just don't like the thought of that at all. He seems like a pretty nice guy maybe I will apologize after school or something."

"Thank you that would be greatly appreciated." I said leaning over to kiss his cheek.

After lunch Lucas and I had English together, so we toke off down the hall together hand in hand. About half way to our classroom we herd a girl behind us talking about me and the things she was saying weren't so nice. So we decided to stop and talk to her.

"Yeah it's totally true; Peyton slept with Lucas and didn't use protection just to give her better odds of getting pregnant just so that she could steal Lucas from Brooke."

The thought of this idea made me laugh internally. I mean really what kind of person would even think about getting pregnant on purpose just to steal their best friend's boyfriend. Especially what teenage girl does that? I am sixteen and I for one do not like the idea of telling my kid that I was in high school and not married when I got pregnant. After hearing that I really couldn't hold my tong, so I walked up to the girl and spun her around. And what do you know it's Logan, one of Brooke's big mouth cheerleader's.

"You know Logan you really should get facts before you spread lies."

"What are you talking about Peyton?"

"Don't act stupid. Lucas and I both herd what you were saying and you know what. I thought that you knew me better than that."

"And why is that?"

"I don't know maybe because we have been on the same cheer squad since we were eight years old and I actually thought that you were my friend, but clearly your not and the only person you have loyalties to would be your bitch of a captain right."

"First of all Brooke is not the bitch, you are. Peyton you stole your best friend's boyfriend."

I could tell that this statement made Lucas angry. He was tired of everyone assuming that because we were together now and the fact that he cheated on Brooke with me meant that I had stolen him. When really Brooke had lost him a long time before he cheated, you know because he never really wanted her in the first place. I mean that doesn't mean that he didn't fall for her in the process of them dating it just meant that he wanted me more than her.

"Okay, Logan is it?"

"Yea that's my name"

"Well I just wanted to make it very clear for all you and your little friends her Logan. Peyton did not steal me from Brooke, because I went gladly. Brooke and I were not truly in love the way that Peyton and I are okay. I mean yes I cheated on Brooke with Peyton, but that does not mean that I was stolen like a little kid's favorite toy or something. If I was really in love with Brooke do you think that I would have slept with Peyton?

"Well Peyton can be very seductive."

These comments made both of us laugh out loud.

"If I was in love with Brooke that wouldn't matter and even if it did, do you really think that I would have broken up with Brooke or would I have tried to work it out with her when I found out about Peyton's pregnancy?"

This left her speechless because she knew he was right. And that meant that all the lies and rumors that she was trying to spread really meant nothing. See her and her cheerleading friends thought that because Lucas was just "stolen" by me meant that if he heard enough rumors that he would eventually brake up with me and go back to their captain, Brooke. And now they knew that this would never happen because Lucas and I actually had true feelings for each other. So after his last comment Lucas spun us around and started walking towards English again.

Once we were both in our chairs, which just happened to be right next to each other, Lucas decided to write me a note.

Peyton I just wanted to make sure that you knew everything that I said out there to Logan was completely true. I love you not Brooke. And I believe you were you tell me that you love me and that you really didn't plan this pregnancy, even though you and this baby are the best things that have ever happened to me. I know that even though we are young and not really that ready we are still going to be great parents. And I know that you are going to be the best mom any kid has ever had besides me of course because no one can beat my mom.

love, Lucas

After reading this it toke everything that I had not to sit in our class and cry my eyes out because of the sincerity of his words. I could tell by the words written on the paper in front of me and the look in his eyes that he did truly love me and not Brooke. No matter what people said and I knew that he would always be there for me and our baby. So this on top of the stupid hormones from my pregnancy made it very hard not to loose control and cry right there and also not to jump out of my seat and kiss him so hard that he wouldn't remember his own name. So after I gained some control back I toke the time to write out a reply.

Thank you so much for those words Lucas. I can tell that they are sincere and how much you mean them. I love you very much too and you make me a very happy person. I can not wait to have you in my arms after this class, so that I can give you a proper thank you kiss. I was worried before you found out about the pregnancy because even though I didn't have the results I knew I was pregnant. And yes because you were with Brooke I didn't know if you would really take responsibility and step up when I needed you, but now I know I had nothing to worry about because even if you and I were not together I know that you would have stepped up and been there for your child and even for me. It makes me all the more happier that you and I are together now though, because I know that you have no one stopping you from coming to me in the middle of the night if I called you. I know that you would jump up and be there in a heartbeat. I really cant tell you how much I love you because of this. I know that you are going to be a wonderful supporter for me and I know that you will always be there for me. So again thank you so much and again I love you with all my heart. I can't wait to see the baby that you and I made together. That baby is going to be perfect because he or she is going to be just like their dad, minus the cheating. J/K. Truthfully you are the most amazing person there is out there and there is not another person out there that I would want to raise this baby with. I love you so much and I know that you are going to be a great dad to our baby.

love, Peyton

After I wrote this out I waited till the perfect timing when our teacher had his back turned where he could not see me and passed the note on to Lucas' desk. I could see that he knew it was there, but he was not even making a gesture towards it. He was silently taking notes about verb phrases and how they are used in writing. So after a few minutes of watching him trying to see if he was going to read the note I got bored and went on to start on my own notes. After writing a few paragraphs I looked over at Lucas and saw him reading my note. Has he was reading I could see the look of pure love on his face and this made me look away, because I could not look at this and not cry sometime, damn hormones. After a few minutes I saw something go on to the corner of my desk. I looked up and noticed the person sitting in front of me was getting annoyed, I guess he could tell that we were passing notes in the middle of class and didn't like it much. So for him I decided to read what Lucas had written and write back once more and then stop. Unless Lucas wrote back to my reply with something that I couldn't help but reply to, so I toke the note and read what Lucas had wrote me.

Peyton thank you so much for your support and trust me nothing would bring me more joy then to be out of this class room and be somewhere kissing you instead. I know that you have had your doubts and I know that there will be more to come, but like I have promised you before I will always be there for you, and that means if we are together or not. You can always count on me. I hope you know that. I cant wiat to be that guy for you though, the guy how wakes up in the middle of the night just to get up and run down to the nearest gas station or grocery store just because you are having a wild and insane craving for some kind of food. Although I hope you don't make me do that to much. You know me and you know that like you I need my sleep, but I would still gladly give it up if it meant satisfying you and our baby. And about your thoughts on our baby I would have to disagree. Our baby is going to be just like his or her mom and is going to also have a very nice jump shot that he or she gets from his or her dad. I love you so much and I cant wait to share memories of our baby together with you. I know that we may have rough spots but I believe that we will always find a way to each other, especially now because now you are gong to be in my life some how because of this baby. If we are together or not you are stuck with me!I love you so much and I cant wait to get out of this class so that I can kiss you infront of everyone just to show them that you are my girl and no one else's.

love, Lucas

This made my heart swell with love for him. I knew that no matter what after having this baby with him and going through everything that we have been through together i would always love Lucas Scott. No matter what happened I was stuck with him and that made me grin with happieness.
