"Jamie baby let's go inside." Haley pulled at Jamie's arm and turned to walk into Brooke and Lucas's house.

"But mama" The four year old's voice faded in the background as his mother escorted him away from Dan.

"Dan you need to go." Nathan tried to remain as calm as possible. He glanced over at his brother who was frozen in his place, his wife hiding slightly behind him.

"You're right. I'm sorry son." Dan reached for the door of his truck.

"DON'T. Don't you dare call me that ever again." Nathan shouted. "Now leave before Karen or Deb sees you. Or before my four year old starts asking questions about his grandfather who is a murderer."

Dan remained silent, got in his truck and pulled away vanishing down the street.

Nathan shook his head in disgust and turned to walk into the house. Peyton, in shock like everyone else, followed him up the driveway. Brooke and Lucas were the only ones still out front. Lucas didn't take his focus off the street although Dan's car had disappeared already.

Brooke pulled on Lucas's arm. "Come on babe, he's gone now. Let's go inside."

Lucas looked down at his wife, put his arm around her and kissed her on her forehead. As the two started the walk back up the driveway, Brooke stumbled a bit. She put a hand to her stomach and then up to her head.

"You okay pretty girl?" Lucas asked.

"Yeah I just got a little dizzy for a sec. I'll be fine." Brooke replied tightening her grip on Lucas's arm.

As the young couple reached the front steps of their house, Lucas noticed Brooke was moving more and more slowly. He looked down at her face which had went completely pale.

"Babe are you sure you're …" But before Lucas could ask if Brooke was alright she fainted in his arms.

Lucas leaned over and pounded on his own front door.

"SOMEBODY CALL 911!"

Brooke's eyes fluttered open at the two paramedics who were leaning over her as the stretcher she was strapped to was being lifted into an ambulance.

"Brooke baby I'm right here don't worry everything's going to be fine." Lucas struggled to keep up with the fast moving paramedics as he jumped into the back of the ambulance.

As the sirens faded with the ambulance that drove down the block, Brooke and Lucas's family and friends stood on the front lawn and watched. Karen and Victoria followed the ambulance in a car but suggested that everyone else go home and wait for any news.

Brooke woke up for the second time in the back of the ambulance. She looked around and saw Lucas sitting right beside her.

"What happened Luke?" She asked "Did I pass out?"

"Yeah Brooke you fainted in my arms. How do you feel?" Lucas said taking a hold of Brooke's hand.

"Like I just got hit by a bus." Brooke said forcing a slight smile.

"You're blood pressure is fine." A paramedic said as he took Brooke's blood pressure. "We'll just run some tests down at the hospital and maybe give you an IV drip. You were probably dehydrated and that's why you fainted but you should be fine."

"And the baby?" Brooke couldn't help but wonder what effect this had on her unborn daughter.

"Oh the baby should be fine. But again, we'll run some tests and take a look at the baby's heartbeat as soon as we arrive at the hospital.

"Thank you so much." Lucas leaned over and shook the paramedics hand.

"There's your little girl." An ultrasound tech smiled down at Lucas and Brooke as she ran the monitor over Brooke's bare stomach. The pounding, consistent heartbeat echoed in the silent room and it made Brooke tear up.

"See she's okay Brooke." Lucas smiled and leaned down to kiss Brooke on the forehead.

"Thank God." Brooke said smiling.

"I'll give you guys some privacy." The tech took off her gloves, walked into the hallway and shut the door behind her.

"I'm sorry about today babe. I know I should be taking better care of myself for the sake of our baby. Everything's just been really stressful lately." Brooke explained as she looked up at her husband.

"Brooke you don't have to apologize, I know how hard you have to work. I'm just glad you're okay." Lucas said as he ran his hand on Brooke's thigh.

"Some end to our party huh?" Brooke laughed. "Our poor guests will probably be scared to come to any future ones we throw will all the chaos that went down."

"Oh I don't know about that." Lucas smirked as he opened the door to the room.

"Karen was the first to walk in and she went over to where Brooke was lying.

"Hi Brooke how are you feeling?" Karen asked as she hugged Brooke.

"Much better thank you for coming." Brooke answered smiling.

"Well I'm not the only one who came to check on you sweetheart." Karen motioned over to the door and all of Brooke and Lucas's friends walked in.

Andy was carrying Lily who was holding a stuffed pink bunny. Next came in Haley and Peyton who were carrying so many pink balloons that said "It's a girl!" on them. Jake and Nathan walked in behind them with Jenny, Jamie and Gage. All the kids had some sort of pink stuffed animal with them. Deb was next in line carrying a bouquet of pink roses. Finally Victoria walked in with about 4 shopping bags. Brooke could guess immediately that her mother bought tons of baby girl clothes. "Typical" Brooke thought to herself and laughed. She was lying a hospital and her mother found an excuse to shop.

Brooke smiled and her eyes brimmed with tears as her doting friends and family members filled the room.

"I can't believe you guys all came!" Brooke exclaimed.

"Are you kidding? We all needed to make sure you and that baby girl were okay and healthy." Peyton said looking down at Brooke.

"We're so excited you're having a girl guys! Congratulations!" Haley shouted as she hugged Lucas and then walked around the bed to hug Brooke.

"I knew I was right man" Nathan said smiling as he hugged Lucas. "Congrats."

"Thanks little brother." Lucas responded.

"Let's celebrate!" Jamie shouted from in between the crowd of adults.

Everyone laughed at the little boy.

2 1/2 months later

"Babe did I ever tell you you're the best basketball coach ever?" Brooke and Lucas were walking to their car holding hands. It was a warm evening in April and Lucas and Jake and just coached the Ravens to win the third game in the playoffs. Now they were in the semi-finals and the whole town couldn't be more excited.

"Hey I don't know about that." Lucas said shaking his head and laughing. "Whitey was pretty incredible."

"But did Whitey turn around a group of lanky, awkward, disrespectful teenagers into winning machines?" Brooke asked looking up at her husband.

"Well he did help us win a state championship." Lucas argued back.

"And you're going to do just that in a couple of weeks." Brooke leaned up, wrapped her arms around Lucas's neck and kissed him.

"We don't know if we're even in the state championship yet remember?" Lucas asked Brooke breaking their kiss. "We need to win the semi finals first."

"Oh yeah and that will be no problem for your team I just know it." Brooke giggled and kissed Lucas again. Lucas wrapped his arms around Brooke's waist and pulled her closer.

"Could you two get a room? Hey Luke you do realize your wife is already pregnant don't you?" Nathan joked as he and Haley walked to where Lucas and Brooke were making out in the parking lot.

"Uh yeah Nate how could I forget?" Lucas said motioning down to Brooke's giant belly.

"Hey mister that is rude!" Brooke shouted and punched Lucas on the arm playfully.

"What? I love this belly." Lucas said as he bent down and put his head up to Brooke's stomach. "Hey Livy it's your daddy again."

"Livy?" Haley asked excitedly. "You guys picked a name?!

"Yes Livy is short for Olivia. How do you guys think it sounds?" Lucas said standing up straight and looking over at his brother and sister in law.

"Lucas Scott what are you talking about we did not agree on the name Olivia!" Brooke said annoyed.

"Why do you like Olivia so much Luke?" Nathan asked.

"Come on Nathan, Olivia is a Shakespeare name. Typical Lucas." Haley giggled jokingly.

"Well I don't care what it is. I like Olivia but I like other names more and we need to discuss this." Brooke explained looking at Lucas.

"Well what names do you like Brooke?" Haley asked her best friend.

"It's supposed to be a surprise!" Brooke shouted. "Enough talking about this. Let's go out and get some food and celebrate. Peyton and Jake are probably at the restaurant by now."
