Peyton smiled when she reached the river court and saw that Lucas was indeed there, just like she tought he would be, he was with Skillz who was the first to notice her.
"Hey home wrecker" He smiled
Lucas turned around and gave a small glare to his friend when he noticed who is was "Peyton, hey."
"So I have some news."
"Brooke, is she ok?" He asked immediately thinking the worst. The smile on her face soon made all
those thoughts clear from his mind, grinning he ran over to her and hugged her "That's great"
She pulled back and nodded her head "Did you talk to her?"
The blonde shook her head "No, I mean sort of, I was talking to her to try to wake her and she squeezed my hand. I didn't stay though."
"Why not?"
Peyton sighed "Because Lucas, she doesn't want me there."
"Does she know?" He asked hesitantly
"No, not yet." Peyton sighed "I mean how do you tell her something like that, she probally didn't even know there was a baby in the first place."
Lucas raised a brow "How do you know?"
Peyton shrugged "She didn't say anything to me, you or Haley, she would have told one of us."
"Well maybe she told Bevin?" Lucas thought as he turned to Skillz who was pretending to not have been listening to the conversation. He turned around and tried his best to look innocent
"Huh?"
Peyton shook her head and chuckled
He raised his hands in the air and smiled "Fine, I was listening. Bevin doesnt know anything dawg."
"If she did the whole school would have known by now." Peyton said as she looked at Skillz
"The whole school? Don't get it twisted, try the whole school." Skillz laughed getting another glare from Lucas. He then turned back around and started bouncing his basketball.
Peyton chuckled "Skillz stop pretending to be doing something else, you can listen to us."
"If you insist." He replied with a smile
"The doctor would have told her." Lucas said looking at the ground
"Haley spoke with one of them and asked them not to say anything, she said that we could handle it."
Lucas nodded "Who? She won't talk to any of us."
"Why not you?" Peyton asked confused
Lucas sighed "If she is pissed at you, chances are she is pissed at me."
"Plus she called him and broke it off." Skillz chimed in matter of factly.
"Thanks." Lucas said sarcastically turning to him getting a shrug in return
Peyton looked at him confused "What? When was this?"
"After the wedding, I was in the car with my mom and she called me, she didn't say much apart from I wasn't in her heart anymore and she couldn't do it anymore."
Skillz interrupted again "And she didn't miss him no more."
"Dude!"
"You said I could listen." Skillz said defending himself
Lucas laughed "Well do it quietly."
"Whatever."
"Who is with her now?" Lucas asked changing the subject.
"Rachel" Skillz responded
Both Lucas and Peyton looked at him with the same confused expression of their faces
He sighed "Bevin went down to the hospital this morning, she took some of her clothes to her. Rachel was there."
"Since when have they gotten so close?" Lucas asked Peyton
"I have no idea, I know that they started talking more but the best friend thing I don't know where that came from."
They looked at Skillz who scrunched up his nose "Why ya'll looking at me? I don't know all the answers."
OTH
Slowly Brooke opened her eyes and looked around the room spotting Rachel she smiled but made sure Rachel didn't see "You still here, can't get enough of me huh?"
"So I was thinking."
"That's never good." Brooke mumbled cutting Rachel off
"Shut up, and to think I was going to give you the offer of a lifetime."
Brooke shook her head "I don't need your surgeons number...I'm already hot."
Sighing the red head stood up "I don't know why I put up with you." She walked over to Brooke who was trying to get up "Lay down, you are going to hurt yourself."
"I already have."
"Do you always have to be so stubborn?" Rachel asked already knowing the answer.
"I just hate being stuck here I hate the fucking hospitals." Brooke moaned
Rachel chuckled "Like anybody enjoys it. Atleast you look good since I got you some of your clothes.
You are probably the hottest in this hospital."
"Well that's a given."
Rachel grinned "Apart from me." She laughed as Brooke rolled her eyes then turned serious "Anyway, back to what I was saying, you should come stay with me now, you are getting let out tomorrow and since you can't go to Peytons, I guess I will be nice and let you stay at my humble abode."
"You only want me there so you can kill me in my sleep and take over my team." Brooke whispered half asleep.
The red head smiled "You got me.
The brunette nodded and Rachel smiled, She then began to pull the covers over Brooke which was very hard since she was just laying there trying her best to make it hard for the other girl to do. It was mean but what else was she to do?
"There all done." Rachel grinned as she finally got them around her.
Brooke sighed "Isn't it hot? I'm roasting in here, I'll need to take this blanket off."
"Brooke!" Rachel groaned clearly angry
Brooke let out a sleepy giggle and in return got a swat from her friend.
"I hate you."
