Disclaimer-what do you think?

Note-People on message boards are making me angry. No not people… Peyton fans!(no offense) They like to bring up Brooke's past to justify that Peyton kissed Lucas. That's a load of BS! breaths in and out I'm better now, rant over…for now. This is shorter then the last two, but I will try to update tomorrow.

Previously-

"I'm going to transfer to the Lakers."

"You would do that for Paige?"

"For Paige…and you."

"Lucas, I love you," she whispered as she drifted off to sleep.

"Brooke, I love you too."


Scene-the next morning

Brooke woke up with Lucas's arm around her and smiled. "Lucas, wakey-wakey," she whispered.

Lucas opened one eye and smiled. "Morning, Brooke," he replied.

"You and I need to have a serious conversation," she stated.

"Brooke Davis and a serious conversation before noon? Wow, I'm shocked."

She playfully hit him. "I'm a mother I wake up at 7 in the morning." She poked her tongue out.

"What do we need to talk about?"

"Paige," she stated calmly.

"What about her?"

Brooke smiled. "When do you want to be introduced as Daddy?"

He smiled. "How about I get Nathan and Jake to help me get my stuff from Rachel then you meet me around noon at the Café like we planned before."

"Safety in numbers, I see."

"Better safe then sorry."

"Lucas, another thing, you don't have to look for a place to live in L.A." She smiled. "There's plenty of room at my apartment."


Scene-Lucas's apartment

Lucas, Nathan, and Jake walked into Lucas's apartment only to find most of his things already gone.

"Rachel!" he yelled.

She walked out with her hands on her hips. "Why are you yelling?" she asked.

"Where are my clothes?"

"I burned them…but I'm not completely heartless. I didn't burn any of the things that really meant something to you…oh wait yes I did. Hope you didn't want those pictures from high school," she replied bitterly

"You bitch!"

She handed him a box. "There's all your belongings." She smiled meanly.

Lucas grabbed the box and walked out. Jake and Nathan followed.

"Well, look on the bright side, when you move to L.A. you won't have to take a lot," Nathan said.

"Ha ha, you're hilarious." Lucas looked at his watch. "I have to go meet Brooke…bye." He started walking to River court with the box in his hand.

Scene-River court

Brooke rolled a basketball to Paige as they waited for Lucas. Finally he arrived. Why is he carrying a box?

"Sorry, I'm late," he started. "Rachel burned all of clothes this…" he motioned to the box. "…is all I have left."

"I'm sorry, Broody," Brooke replied sympathetically. "Paige, I have something to tell you."

Paige looked up at her mother. "What, Mommy?" she asked.

"Sweetie this is your Daddy."


Scene-Karen's hospital room

Keith walked in with a boutique of red roses in one arm and Alyssa in the other.

"Mommy!" Alyssa said trying to get out of her father's arms. "Daddy, let go!"

He put her down and laughed.

Alyssa ran to her mothers bed and hugged her. "Mommy, I missed you. Daddy doesn't know how to tuck me in," the 5 ½ year old whispered.

Karen smiled. "Well he is a man," she replied.

"Very funny you two," Keith said.

"Where's Lucas?" Karen asked.

"Right, you've missed a lot," Keith started as he pulled a chair close to Karen's bed.

"What happened?" she asked worriedly.

"Lucas broke up with Rachel…"

Yes! she thought.

"…and is officially meeting Paige as his daughter today."

"I have missed a lot."


Scene-River court

"But I don't have a Daddy," replied a confused Paige.

"Now you do," Brooke said.

"Are you two gonna get married, like Auntie Hawley and Uncle Nathan?" Paige asked innocently.

Kids say the darnest things, don't they?
