Chapter 8
"You waited." A soft weak voice said.
Lucas turned around and saw Brooke open her eyes a whisper those two word. "You waited." She repeated.
"Of course, I'll wait for you, forever." Lucas replied equally as softly, careful not to damage Brooke in anyway. Lucas leaned into Brooke's body, but before he could touch her lips, Dr. Copeland walked in.
"Brooke, wait here I'll be back in a moment." Dr. Copeland said n disbelief that she was awake.
Brooke found that comment quite amusing and struggled out a small laugh, "Yes I think I'm defiantly going to make a runner."
Lucas laughed but felt uncomfortable, and was still thinking about what would of happened if Dr. Copeland hadn't have walked in when he did. Would he and Brooke have kissed? Would he have told her how he felt? Would she have rejected him? Lucas would never know.
Dr. Copeland came in with another doctor that neither Brooke nor Lucas recognised.
"Hi Brooke, my name is Dr. Rachel Gatina, I am going to be your specialist doctor. I will be your therapist and doctor once you have left the hospital."
"When will that be exactly?" Lucas asked curiously.
"Well if Brooke continues to make good progress, then just over a week." Dr. Copeland answered.
Both Brooke and Lucas smiled, but when they caught each others gaze, quickly dodged it awkwardly.
Two weeks later Brooke, Lucas, Nathan, Haley, Karen, Keith and many more people gathered around a grave stone and they all laid flowers down.
"Peyton Sawyer was a great friend, she was my best friend and I am going to miss always. But I know that she is now with both her moms, so I know she will be happy." Brooke said in tears at Peyton's funeral. Behind Brooke was a picture of Peyton and a few records and her drawings.
"Peyton Sawyer was an amazing person and a loyal friend. Her love and affection towards her friends was extraordinary. I will miss her very much." Haley said with tears streaming down her face, she turned and placed a single lily on the coffin which was lying next to he picture and Peyton's things.
Nathan had no words to say so he just sat and watched in pure silence and he experienced something he wished he wouldn't have to do again. A flashback of the day he found Peyton Sawyer dead on the classroom floor.
Sorry if I have disappointed people by killing Peyton off. It just gives the story more drama! Plenty more Brucas and Naley to come, so keep reviewing!!
