Bonjour! Hope everyone is having a splendid day! Hope you enjoy chapter 6. It incorporates Lucas, and he will be there for some of the upcoming chapters, but Brathan fans please do not worry. I have not forgotten about Nathan lol. Enjoy!
Lucas Scott was lying on his bed, melancholy and loneliness taking over him. The house was oddly quiet without Brooke or the kids, a noise that was foreign to the Scott family. He missed her. He tried so hard to hate her. She cheated on him with his brother. It had felt like she had ripped his heart out and cut it in half. He should hate her. But he couldn't. He still loved her. And he hated the fact that he did.
The shrill ringing of the telephone brought Lucas back to reality. He sat up. Who the heck was calling?
"Hello, Scott residence."
"May I speak to Mr. Lucas Scott please?" Lucas could hear tons of commotion in the background. Wherever this guy was calling from must have been a busy place.
"This is he. How may I help you?"
"Mr. Scott, this is Tree Hill Hospital. I'm very sorry to disappoint you but your wife has been in a car accident. She is in critical condition. It would be best if you came to the hospital as soon as possible."
Lucas felt like his heart was getting ripped out all over again. Brooke. Car Accident. Critical Condition. The words repeatedly ran through his head.
"I'm on my way," he whispered before hanging up. He quickly got dressed and ran to his car. "God, please let Brooke be okay," he thought as he sped off to Tree Hill Hospital.

Nathan was sitting on a kitchen stool, his head resting in between his hands. He had fed the kids and they were currently being entertained by his 50" TV. How could he be such a dumb ass? Why did he try to kiss her? It was wrong on all levels. 1) She's still married. 2) To his brother. 3) He was still married. 4) They were both emotionally unstable. 5) He was starting to have feelings for her. Actually, he had started to have feeling for her for a while now. He just hadn't realized it until now.
"God, why is my love life so screwed up?" he said as he banged his head on the counter.
Suddenly the phone rang. Nathan rushed to it, half hoping it was Brooke, half hoping it wasn't.
"Hello?"
"Nathan…It's Lucas." He sounded like he had been crying. Suddenly, all Nathan's previous thoughts disappeared. Instead, fear filled him up. What was wrong? Luke rarely cried.
"Luke, what's wrong? Are you ok?"
"It's Brooke." Nathan felt like his world was slowly falling apart.
"Man, what happened to Brooke?"
"She was running and a car hit her and she's in the hospital. Nate, they don't know if she'll be okay or not."
"I'm on my way," he said before he hung up. He slowly slid down the wall. This was his entire fault. That damn kiss. "God, please let Brooke be okay," he thought as he hurriedly made his way to the front door.

Nathan rushed into the hospital. Searching everywhere he finally found Lucas slumped in a rattled up chair. He looked like hell. Of course he should, Nathan, he's her husband.
"Lucas! How is she?" Nathan asked as he rushed forward to his brother.
"I don't know. The doctors haven't come out yet. Nathan, I'm scared. What if she doesn't make it?"
"She'll make it. She's strong. She's a fighter, Luke."
"I hope so. I still don't know where the kids are. I went off on her last night and she left with the kids."
Nathan looked away guiltily. "Actually, they are at my house."
Lucas looked up at his brother. The brotherly moment was ruined as Luke's hate for his brother returned. Because of the accident, they had both forgot about last night's events and the secret from that fateful night. Lucas shook his head and smirked. His previously sad eyes turned hard and cold. "Unbelievable," he said as he got up and walked away from his brother.
"Lucas, nothing happened. She just needed a place to stay. We were both going through the same emotions with you kicking her out and Haley leaving me. She just needed a friend to comfort her." After he said it, Nathan quickly regretted it and knew that he shouldn't have.
"Well, I bet you did lots of comforting last night." He smirked.
"Lucas, it happened two and a half years ago! It was one mistake! It didn't mean anything!"
"Damn it Nathan you slept with my wife! That means something to me!" Lucas bellowed, drawing attention from the people around them.
"I'm sorry, ok? I'm sorry we hid it from you and I'm sorry Shelly is my daughter and I'm sorry it all blew up now!" he yelled back.
A nurse came storming up to them. "Sir, this a hospital! People are struggling for their lives. Either you stop arguing or I will kick you out. Your choice."
"Sorry," they both mumbled and sat down.
After an awkward silence, Nathan finally spoke up. "You can hate me all you want Luke. What I did was wrong. But for this one moment can you kindly forget about this and concentrate on why we are really here? For Brooke?"
"Yeah, I'm sorry," he said, a guilty look crossing his face.
At that exact moment, the doors to Brooke's room opened and a doctor came out. Both Nathan and Lucas jumped out of their seats.
The doctor looked at both men before saying, "We tried everything we could…"
