Chapter 16
The school bell rang at the end of the day and the corridors filled up with hundreds of students. Brooke went to her locker and when she opened it and was pleasantly surprised by what she saw. There was a strip of photos of her and Lucas from when they were dating last year. Underneath written in pink writing was 'Brooke and Lucas forever.' Brooke smiled and turned around to see Lucas standing behind her looking very pleased with himself.
"So do you like it?" Lucas asked hopefully, "I love it, thank you Luc!" Brooke exclaimed putting her arms around Lucas' neck and kissing him softly. "So I was thinking we could go and visit Peyton's grave before we head over to the river court." Brooke suggested. Lucas saw it in her eyes, the sadness, "You miss her don't you." Lucas said looking into Brooke's brown eyes. "She was my best friend. She always was, always will be." Brooke said trying to be strong. "Your right I think we should." Lucas said comfortingly. "Hey, it's gonna be okay, I promise." Lucas whispered and Brooke nodded and Lucas held Brooke close and hugged her tight.
"Haley wait up, Haley!" Nathan called to his wife as she walked out the school doors. Haley pretended not hear Nathan, but he caught up with her anyway. "Haley, have I done something wrong, because you've been avoiding me for days now? Your never in the apartment and in school you always seem to dodge me and you haven't answered any of my texts or calls. If I have done anything wrong we can work it out, together." Nathan said holding on to Haley's hands.
But she then pulled away and said, "I'm sorry Nathan, you are going to hate me." Haley said starting to cry. "How could I ever hate you Haley, I love you." Nathan pleaded. "I'm sorry……." Haley trailed off and walked away. Nathan watched his wife walk away and it was not a good feeling.
"Hey mate, you 'right?" Lucas asked hand in hand with Brooke, as he approached his, little brother. "No, its Haley something's wrong and I'm not sure what. She hasn't said anything to you, has she Brooke?" Nathan asked curiously, Brooke shook her head ashamed of herself, she didn't want to lie to Nathan but she knew she couldn't break Haley's trust.
Lucas didn't like seeing his brother in this sate so he asked if Nathan wanted to join him and Brooke, "We're on our way to Peyton's grave." Lucas added, Nathan had second thoughts but he really didn't want to be alone, so he agreed. "Hang on; I'm not like intruding on some kind of date am I? Brooke are you sure this is okay?" Nathan asked slightly embarrassed that he might have ruined Brooke's first date with Lucas. "No, of course I don't mind. It will be good to hang out together, Nate. Besides I'll have plenty of time to spend with Lucas tonight!" Brooke said with a cheeky smile, all Lucas and Nathan could do was laugh.
"Oh crap" Haley cursed to herself when she realised that she had lost her favourite purse that she had a couple of days ago. She realised that she must have dropped it when she was visiting Peyton's grave. Haley then thought of the pregnancy and how she was going to tell Nathan. Little did she know that he would find out himself.
The three of them arrived and Brooke was the first to say something, "Hey buddy I miss you. There is so much I have to tell you and I just wish I could have told you in person. Well to start of with me and Lucas are back together," Brooke paused, while she wiped away a tear, "I'm so happy Peyton and I just wish you were here to share it with me." Brooke couldn't continue because she was crying to much, Lucas walked over to her and hugged her tight.
"I miss her so much, Luc." Brooke wailed, "I know." That was all Lucas could say. Nathan had picked up some roses from the store across the road and went to place them down on Peyton's grave when he saw a purse on the floor. He picked it up and immediately recognised it as Haley's.
Nosily Nathan opened it up and picked up a box that was lying in it, he read the label and his whole world came crashing down. He opned the box and he made himself look at what he had just brought out. Nathan was so shocked but just managed to say.
"Did you guys know that Haley was pregnant?"
