Brooke hooked her arm underneath Haley to get a better grip on her. She hardly was walking now. She was holding the sweatshirt against her side, it was completely soaked through now with her blood.
"Come on Hales, only one more hallway. We are almost to the auditorium!" Brooke said trying to urge her to keep on walking.
"Brooke I can't walk anymore" she said sliding down the wall onto the floor.
"No, No, No Hales get up, we need to keep going. We can't just sit in the hall like sitting ducks for Jimmy Edwards" Brooke was starting to panic. She knew they couldn't just sit here someone would find them, but she also knew that Haley couldn't walk anymore. She knew that they were in serious trouble. She grabbed Haley's arm and slid her into the nearest classroom.
"AHHH! Dam it" Haley screamed in pain
"I'm sorry but we couldn't just sit in the hallway" Brooke said pacing. She knew she needed to figure out how to get them out of here
"Brooke come over here" Haley motioned to her. Brooke came over and sat down next to her on the floor, she grabbed Brookes hands in hers. "I want you to listen to what I am going to say" Brooke shook her head "You saved my life this year. My family was gone when I came back, Nathan wouldn't give me the time of day, Peyton wouldn't even speak to me and I had no where to go. My life fell apart then you held out your hand to me and gave me a place to stay, helped me with Nathan and my music. You have become my best friend" Haley said wiping away her tears "Now it's my turn to help you…leave me here" Brooke shook her head and wiped her own tears away now "No I am not leaving you here"
"Listen to me I cannot walk anymore and I lost a lot of blood Brooke. You can move a lot quicker and you can get me help. If I hide in here no one will find me and Ill stay in here until you get help in here" she pleaded with Brooke
"I can't just leave you here Hales"
"Yes you can, I want you too. If roles were reversed you would say the same thing to me. You need to do this for me and get me some help" she said getting loud now
"Ok Ok I will go and get you help. You have to promise me that you will stay here and not move. I will have someone come in here and get you" Brooke said crying because part of her was worried this would be the last time that she would talk to Haley "You're my best friend too, your like the sister I never had and I love you" Brooke said giving her a hug
"love you too" she said as Brooke was getting ready to step out into the hallway "Oh Brooke when you see Nathan just tell him that I love him and I am so sorry for everything" she said wiping the tears off her face "I wont have to you will tell him yourself" she said winking at her and stepped out into the hallway.
Brooke walked down the hallway toward the auditorium she was just about to the door and she saw 2 kids with guns in the auditorium. "Shit" she whispered running down the hall. She took a quick left and a right and was by the art hall when she heard screaming, what the hell going on she thought she slowly crept down the hall and saw Peyton jumping in Jason's back as gunshots went off. She watched as Nathan, Lucas, and Peyton all hit the floor. "NOOO" she screamed hitting the floor when she heard another shot go off. Everyone just laid on the floor for a minute…Nathan started to move "Luke are you ok man" he asked slowly moving
"Yah Yah I'm ok what about Peyton and Brooke I saw her come down at the end of the hall"
Peyton slowly moved "HOLY SHIT!" she screamed holding the gun in her hands that she got out of Jason's hand. "I shot him I think he is dead" she said completely horrified. Jake got up and ran over to her "its ok Peyton you didn't mean it" he said hugging her. Peyton looked at him and jumped into his arms "Thank god your ok…I was going out of my mind"
"Brooke" Lucas yelled he didn't see her anymore. Brooke crawled around the corner holding her head she smashed it when she it the floor.
"Oh my God Lucas. Thank god I found you." She said crying in his arms she was holding him so tight. She looked at him and gave him a kiss
"Brooke where is Haley?" Nathan asked running up to her wondering why Brooke was without Haley.
