Justawriter, Jake is still unconscious, Peyton put his arm around her. So, yeah. Sorry about the confusion! Please continue to R&R!
Peyton woke up to the bright sun. She quickly opened her eyes and realized were she was. Still in that hospital bed, with Jake. "Jake?" She whispered, just hoping against hope he would open his badly bruised eyes. But no luck. She sighed and rubbed herself up against him. "Please come back, Jake. I need you. We need you." Peyton said rubbing her stomach.
Peyton smiled as her eye caught the glow of his wedding ring, sparkling in the sunlight. She smiled. Maybe he would wake up soon, maybe all hope wasn't lost. She looked at his bruises and whispered "I love you..." To him one last time before cuddling back into him again.
"I'm not sure if we have a problem, or if I have a problem."
"Well, what's the problem?"
"In a nutshell, your you and I'm me."
"Yeah but if I was you, well then you'd be dating yourself."
"I guess, I do what I do. And I like what I like. And that's just who I am."
"Yeah I know, that's what I like about you."
"But the music that you listen to and the books that you read, I'm not into any of that stuff."
"And I never asked you to be. I kind of enjoy the fact that were different."
Brooke smiled back at that memory. Lucas and Brooke were different. Brooke was the fun girl, always looking for something to do. While Lucas was quiet and brooding. But deep down, Brooke Davis had a big heart, and Lucas brought that out in her.
The new Brooke Scott looked at her cell phone. 0 new texts, 0 new calls. She was expecting Peyton to call her by now. Brooke always got worried when Peyton was depressed. Especially after the cocaine incident.
"Peyton call yet?" Lucas asked walking into their room, holding a small blue outfit. "No, I'm kinda worried about her." Lucas smiled. "She'll be okay, Brooke. So will Jake." Brooke nodded and looked at the outfit. "What's that?" Brooke asked smiling. "Oh just some stuff my mom picked out for the baby." Brooke smiled.
"So this is really happening eh?" Brooke asked, looking at her baby bump. "I'm afraid so pretty girl." Brooke smiled. "What about names?" Brooke asked. "Well, I was thinking Michael." Brooke smiled. "Michael eh?" Lucas nodded. "You know what, I kinda like it. Mikey Scott it is!" Lucas smiled and kissed her.
Peyton sat alone in the hospital room, still wearing the dress she had worn yesterday. Her hair still in the bun, just looking at him. What was she going to do without him? Jake's mom had decided to take Jenny for a couple days so Peyton could look after Jake.
Soon, Brooke and Lucas arrived. Brooke, with her pregnancy was always very tired and grumpy, therefore making Lucas very aggravated. Peyton was in no mood to bug people anyways.
Brooke, Lucas, and Peyton just sat beside Jake. Talking about old times. Times when everything was better. "Remember when you were naked in my car?" Lucas asked, causing Peyton to smile and Brooke to laugh. "What? It's a Davis tradition."
"Hey gorgeous."
"Hey...um...I think you have the wrong car."
"Oh don't mind me I just need to get out of this uniform."
Brooke smiled back at the memory. "Now it's a Scott tradition." Lucas said smiling. "I love you, Broody." Peyton looked at Jake. She wished he was here right now, laughing and joking. Wandering back down memory lane.
Peyton remembered the fun times Jake and her had together, and how much she missed him.
"Bowchickawowwow. Hey, you ladies order room service?"
Peyton looked at him and smiled. There was nothing else she could do but smile. And hope. Hope that he would wake up and they could have their fairy tale ending that was supposed to be. That should be.
Karen Roe sat alone at her kitchen table, flipping through her scrapbook. She looked at all her old pictures, when Lucas was a baby, when Keith first held him. Keith, the only man who ever loved her uncontrollably. The only man that would ever, she thought. But boy was she wrong.
"Karen?" A somewhat familiar voice called from outside the door. "Come in!" She shouted, not bothering to look up. "Oh, hi Larry!" Karen said, setting her scrapbook down beside her and walking over to her. "Hi Karen." Larry said smiling. "How was your long work trip?" Karen asked smiling. "It was fun." Larry answered looking at her. "Would you like to come in? Have some coffee?" Larry nodded.
Brooke had gotten to get some food for Peyton who hadn't eaten in fourteen hours. Peyton was trying so hard to hold in her nervous breakdown. And Lucas knew she was close to the edge. "Lucas, everything's gonna be okay right?" Lucas smiled. "I don't know, you tell me." He said smiling. And Peyton broke down, remembering Jake's words.
"I needa move out."
"Why? Because we kissed?"
"Well, yeah."
"Okay, you know what..."
"And I wanna ask you out Friday night. I talked to Karen she agreed to watch Jenny."
"Oh. Well that's kinda presumptuous don't you think?"
"I don't know, you tell me."
Peyton couldn't take it anymore and stood up, running into Lucas's arms, crying her heart out.
And that's what Jake woke up to.
