"What Lies Ahead Of Us" -Chapter Three


The smirk on Jake's face made Peyton roll her eyes and laugh. She ran over to him, giving him a hug. "How have you been?" She asked warmly, looking at him with a smile on her face.

She had missed him and for ages she had been wondering how he was. Now, he was here, and she couldn't believe it. He was okay, and she was so happy. There were so many things that she wanted to say, yet it seemed like she couldn't speak at all.

"I've been great, Peyton, we're all just fine." Jake smiled at her, his daughter standing right by his side. Jenny was a beautiful girl. She had light brown hair with many blonde higlights that had slight curls scattered everywhere. Her face and skin was beautiful.

Peyton smiled at the two of them, and somehow the feelings that she once had for her him swarmed right back into her life.


Brooke ran up the steps, leading to a hallway of apartments. She was rushing, looking for a specific number that led to Peyton and Lucas' apartment. When she finally found it, she knocked on the door repeatedly. When she heard no sign of movement, she got out her purse and the key that Peyton had gave her, and let herself in.

Running inside, Brooke squealed when she saw Peyton walking to her. "Nice job letting yourself in." Peyton joked, looking at her best friend in front of her.

"Well, that is the point of having a key," Brooke shot back, and Peyton smirked. Brooke grinned, looking vibrant and excited.

"P. Sawyer, I'm pregnant!" She screamed, and Peyton looked shocked. They both jumped up & down, squeezing each other. They couldn't believe that a little one would be around soon.

"Babe, I'm so excited for you!" Peyton exclaimed, grinning. "I can't believe it!"

Still jumping up and down, Lucas joined in, and the three of them burst out laughing. "What happened?" Lucas laughed.

Brooke looked back and forth from Peyton to Lucas, so excited she thought she might burst. "Peyton's pregnant!" She screamed, but then stopped smiling when Luke's face froze. "Luke, aren't you happy?" Turning to Peyton, who's eyes were wide, she realized what she had said. "Oh my god! No, no, no, I'm the one that's pregnant, Luke! Not Peyton." Brooke said, reassuring him and laughing nervously. Peyton stared at Lucas, a slightly angry look on her face.

"Good to know where you at," Peyton winked at him, and the two of them walked away, leaving Lucas sighing.

Dammit.
