Hey everyone. Here is the next chapter. I know it's not the best because I'm writing this with no sleep all weekend. Friday I slept over my friends for her birthday and we went to bed at 3 and got up at 6 so that didn't help. Then last night I had my friend Lisa's sweet sixteen and now I have no voice. Anyway I'm sorry if this chapter isn't the best but I'm trying my best. I wrote most of this in the best class ever! Guess it, of course its math class with Mr. R. The next chapter should be up on Wednesday by the latest. I have a half-day then because of PSAT'S.

I've been forgetting to put this in here. I own nothing! It depresses me a lot.

I Want To Thank Everyone Who Is Reading This Story But Mostly: B.P.Davis, wtlozy, hoeoverbros, onetreehillgirl066, bornagainbrucasfan, toddntan and forblueskies89.


Chapter 7: Happiness In The End Of Pain

"Hey Brooke." Lucas said when his Pretty Girl got there.

"Hey Luke. Sorry I'm a little late. Haley called and then in the middle she started to yell at Kay for eating dirt."

"It's ok."

"So what did you want to talk about?"

"Brooke I've been thinking about how much I've been missing you lately and I was wondering if we can give us another try."


"I'm sorry Luke." Brooke said, "You had many chances and I can't go threw that anymore."

"Why not?"

"Because I'm engaged." Brooke said showing Lucas her ring, "He asked last night and I said yes. Him and I are waiting till tomorrow to tell the kids."

"How long?" Luke asked trying not to be so depressed about it.

"Since last night. We're decided to tell the kids tomorrow since you have Ryan and Tessa tonight." Brooke said as her cell phone started to ring.

"Hello?"

"Is this Brooke Scott?"

"Yes why?"

"This is Hospital. Your daughter Miley is on her way here from school."

"Oh god. I'm on my way." Brooke said hanging up the phone.

"Brooke where are you off running to?" Lucas asked.

"Mileyhospitalnow." Brooke cried knowing what she said didn't make any sense.

"Brooke say it slower."

"Miley and hospital now."

"Come on I'll drive you." Luke said walking to his car with Brooke following him.

"She's going to be alright, right?" Brooke cried.

"She'll be fine." Lucas said as they drove away, "At least I hope." He said keeping the last part to himself.

"My daughter Miley is here." Brooke said after she ran to the front desk in the Emergency Room.

"Room 323." The nurse said as Brooke and Lucas walked away.

"Hey Brooke." Haley said when they walked into the room, "The school called me when they couldn't get in touch with you at work."

"How is she?"

"Mom one minute we were in gym playing basketball the next she's on the floor passed out." Cried Tessa as the other two girls cried along with her.

"Girlies you have to calm down a little." Brooke said rubbing Tessa back to try at least to calm her down.

"I'll go find the doctor." Haley said, "Girls why don't you come with me?"

"Ok." Cay, Tessa, and Sam said following Haley out of the room.

"My baby girl." Brooke said giving Miley a big hug.

"I'm sorry." Miley cried.

"Miles it's nothing to be sorry about." Luke said.

"What's wrong baby girl?"

"My chest hurts mommy. Make it stop." Miley cried more.

"Babe I wish I could do something but I can't." Brooke said with tears in her hazel eyes. She hated seeing one of her kids in pain. She couldn't stand it to know she can't do anything to help, " I need some air." Brooke said walking out of the room.

"Dad everything is going to be alright right?" Miley said.

"Yeah it is babe." Luke said kissing the top of Miley's head, "Now try to get some sleep."

"But it hurts bad daddy."

"I know babe, but it will help." Lucas said as Miley fell right asleep and walked out to find Brooke crying.

"Brooke you have to calm down a little or you are going to end up on one of those beds."

"Luke there's nothing I can do to help her. It hurts so bad knowing that."

"Brooke she need's you to be strong."

"Brooke, Luke I got the Doctor he said he'll be here in five minutes. If you want I'll go pick up Ryan and Sean for you?"

"Thanks so much Tutor Girl."

"Mr. and Mrs. Scott?" Dr. Carter said as he walked into Miley's room.

"What's wrong with her?" Brooke asked.

"Well it seems that she has a genetic heart problem called HCM."

"No not this again." Brooke cried. She didn't want to go threw it again. She sat there just thinking of all the pain that it caused her when Lucas told her he had it in High School.

"There are two options we can do for it now. One is that we do this new surgery and remove a part of the damaged muscle and she will still need to take the medicine but there will be a chance she wouldn't need it anymore or she can just take the medicine." Dr. Carter finished.

"I think the surgery Brooke. I've been on the medicine for years now. Maybe with the surgery Miley can be lucky and won't need to take the medicine that long."

"Lucas I don't know. It's open-heart surgery. She could die at any minute."

"Yeah but if she forgets to take the medicine she could die."

"Fine go a head with the surgery." Brooke said, "Only if she really is going to be ok."

"She'll be better with the surgery then with out it." Dr. Carter said.

"Ok." Brooke said as Lucas gave her a hug trying to calm her down.

"Mommy." Ryan said running to the parents sitting in the waiting room.

"Hey Ry-Ry." Brooke said.

"Daddy!" Anna said following Ryan the best she could.

"Wow she is really a minnie Peyton." Brooke said when Anna jumped on Lucas' lap.

"Anna Banana say hello."

"Hi." A shy Anna said.

"So what's going on?" Haley said walking over to the adults.

"She has HCM." Brooke cried, "She's in surgery right now."

"Mommy no cry." Ryan said whipping the tears away from Brooke's eyes.

"She'll be fine Brooke." Haley said, "If she lived this long when the doctors said she wouldn't make it past a week she can fight this."

"She has to." Brooke said as Sean, Sam, Cay and Tessa came in with Karen, Keith, and Dan.

"Hey mom." Luke said giving Karen a hug.

"Oh Luke. This shouldn't be happening now."

"There was nothing we could do."

"Brooke maybe you should call mom and dad or maybe even Chase?"

"Can you call mom and dad? I have to call Chase."

"Sure Tigger." Haley said grabbing her cell phone from her purse and dialing a number that she known since childhood. "They are on their way."

"Chase is too."

"He shouldn't be coming here he doesn't belong to this family." Sam said running out side.

"Oh god. Not her." Brooke said placing Ryan on the chair next to her, getting up and walking after Sam out the door.

"Sammy what's wrong?" Brooke asked taking a seat next to Sam on a bench next to the door.

"You can't let him here mom. I don't like him. None of us do." Sam cried into her mom's arms.

"Babe I know but he make's me happy. That's all I want to be and he likes you guys a lot."

"But don't you want us to be happy Mom?"

"Sam I always want you guys to be happy but sometimes you need to let me be happy too."

"You were happy with out him."

"But not as happy as I am with him. Now come on it's too cold to be out here. Let's go inside."


"How is she Brooke?" Chase said walking into the hospital waiting room.

"She's still in surgery right now." Brooke said giving Chase a big hug.

"Did you tell the kids yet?"

"Tell us what mom?" Sean asked.

"Um. Chase and I are getting married." Brooke said.

"Congratulations Brooke." Haley said.

"Thanks."

"No one should be happy about this." Cay said as she, Tessa, Sam walked to the other side of the room with Sean following them a little bit after.

"I knew they wouldn't like it that much." Brooke said.

"Brooke they have to learn to get over it. It make's you happy then they should be happy." Chase said.

"I'm going to talk to them." Brooke said, "Ry-Ry come with me."

"Ok." Ryan said grabbing Brooke's hand.

"Kids we have to talk now." Brooke said taking a seat across from them.

"What's there to talk about? You're marrying a guy that we all hate." Tessa said.

"Tess watch the attitude." Brooke said in a stern voice, "You guys don't give him a chance to get to know you. He wants to."

"Why would a guy want to get to know some one's kids?" Sean asked, "If you want us to show that we want to get to know him then make him show it to us."

"He does show it."

"Yeah right." Cay said rolling her eyes.

"If you're getting married to him then I'm going to go live with dad." Tessa said as Cay and Sam said me to in agreement.

"Not happening girls." Brooke said getting up, " Now I want you to apologize to Chase."

"For what reason, we didn't do anything?" Sam said.

"Sam cut the attitude right now. Now go say sorry."

"Sorry we all hate you." They said walking up to Chase.

"Sorry about them. They are kind of reacting weird from what I thought they would have." Brooke said giving Chase a kiss on the lips.

"You have nothing to be sorry about Brooke, they are acting like normal kids do when their mom is getting remarried."

"So how did it go?" Lucas asked when Dr. Carter came out.

"It went fine. Everything went well. If she heels good then she should be home in a week, but no basketball for a long time."

"Ok. Can we see her?" Brooke asked thanking God that her baby girl is ok.

"Room 233 the same one as before."

"Thanks." Brooke said walking to the room with everyone following her.
