Haley pick up the phone and said, "Hello", and the person said, "Hello, is the residence of Nathan Scott? I could talk to him please", Haley said," just a minute", turned to Nathan and said, "it's for you, it seems serious."
Nathan picked up the phone and said, "Nathan Scott", the person said, "Nathan, here is the chief of police Andrew Brown", Nathan looked at Haley and said, "Is there something wrong?"
The chief said, "Nathan I have something to talk with you, I need you to come to the police station as soon as you can", Nathan quickly responded, "Can you tell me now? I'm nervous enough now"
The chief said, "I would prefer to talk in person, but if you want I can make a exception, it's about your father Dan Scott", Nathan without understanding further said, "what about him?"
The chief said, "He surrendered himself today for killing his brother, your uncle, Keith Scott". Silence reigned on the phone until the officer spoke again, "Nathan? Are you there?" Nathan said," yeah, I'm here, thank you for the information" and hung up.
Lucas came home and saw his mother on the kitchen floor crying, he ran up to her and asked frantically, "Mom! mom! You okay? What happened? Want me to call the doctor?" Karen looked at his son and said, "No, it's ok, I think, just got a call. We need to talk, help me get up".
Lucas helped her get up and sit in the chair and sat in front of her, Karen dried the tears and said, "Luke you have to stay calm and listen to me okay? Remember you have a heart condition and you're all I have, you and the baby…"
Lucas looked at his mother and said, "ok mom, I can stay calm, just tell me what happened", Karen took his hand and said, "the chief of police called, Dan turned himself in, he killed Keith".
Lucas didn't know what to think, what to say or what to do, stood there with the tears running from his eyes, Karen got up and hugged him and said, "Luke .." before she could say more he said, "Is he arrested? And he'll stay there?"
Karen looked at him and said, "yes Luke, he should get at least ten years or more, but the important thing here is that justice is being done and the truth is that nothing is going to bring Keith back."
Lucas stood up and hugged his mother and said, "you're right, that bastard will pay for what he did, and we will not have to worry about him for the rest of your lives", Karen said, "that's right, now I have to rest, all of this can't be good for the baby", Karen retired to her bedroom, and Luke stayed in the kitchen, crying alone.
Rachel and Brooke were in the bedroom talking, Rachel took the flyers that the doctor gave them from her purse, gave them to Brooke and said, "you know, this flyers aren't so useless as I thought"
Brooke picked up and put them on her side and said, "yeah I suppose, but I'm not ready yet to read, what I'm going to do Rachel?"
Rachel look at her, and said, "what we are going to do? Not you, I'm not going anywhere" Brooke half smiled and said, "what we are going to so then?! How I have a child, be a mother? I'm still in school, don't even know if I'm got in to a college… I don't even know if I want to go.."
Rachel was about to reply when the doorbell rang, and she said, "Nathan?", Brooke got up and said, " probably not, he said he would come over later, but I get it" and she left the room and went downstairs to answer the door.
When she opened the door she came across with Peyton, and the only thing out of her mouth was, "Peyton!?" Peyton looked at her and said, "hey, I would call but decided it was better to come, is that a problem?"
Brooke looked at her and said, "no.. you can get in, I think we have to talk anyway" Brooke and Peyton sat on the couch and Peyton said, "Rachel is here? I don't fight with her again" Brooke said, "she's up stairs, but I think we won't have a problem today".
Peyton was about to speak but Brooke went ahead and said, "Peyton before we start talking about other things and avoid the subject I'll talk first. Lucas told me, well I found out, but whatever.. so we can go right to the subject".
Peyton didn't understand very well, but the only thing that came into her mind were the messages, and said, "Brooke, I'm sorry that I lied to you, it wasn't my intention, I just didn't want to start that mess again, but the truth is he sent me first I just answer it".
Now was Brooke that didn't understand and said, "Peyton, what are you talking about?" Peyton looked at her and said, "the messages that Luke and I send to each other while his was away. That's not what you said you found out?"
Brooke got up and said, "no, it wasn't that. I was talking about the kissing on the day of the shooting at school" Peyton looked at the floor and put her hands on her head, and Brooke kept talking, "but I knew you were lying when you told me about not having news from Lucas, so it's not a surprise".
Peyton looked up and said, "I didn't want any of this you know", Brooke stopped her and said, "you didn't want this?!? Give me a break Peyton." Peyton stood up and said, "I know I don't deserve but I can explain everything please?"
Brooke stopped talking and sat down and Peyton said, "I didn't know that everything was going to happen, first kiss, Brooke, the kiss.. that kiss wasn't like you think it was. It was two friends, who had a past together.. Brooke I was bleeding, I thought I was going to die, I swear to you, at that moment was nothing more than that"
Brooke looked at her in the eye and said, "I believe you" Peyton didn't expect that and said, "do you believe?", Brooke said, "yeah I believe you, because I know that you are telling the truth, but the fact that I know you love him and messages.."
Peyton didn't let her finish and said, "when I went to see Jake I asked him in marry me" Brooke got up and said, "you what?!?", Peyton went on, "he said yes, it was an incredible moment, but then I woke up at dawn and I saw standing looking at me, he said that I said I love you Lucas while we were sleeping. We talked and he said to me to come back and see where my heart was, because he didn't deserve that and he wouldn't let Jenny get through that and that if we were really meant to be one day we would be together, someday.."
Brooke didn't know what to say, she looked at her and said, "my God Peyton, honestly don't know what is going on with you, I think I don't even know you anymore. You have to decide what you want and keep that choice, stop hurting everybody. Stop hurting me."
Peyton looked at her and said, "I know, I could never say sorry enough, I wanted to talk to you about everything before you found out, but the timing.."
Brooke sat in front of her and said, "I don't want your sorry Peyton, and you still have time for one thing" Peyton looked at her and said, "I know, this is exactly what I came, Brooke, I love Lucas" Brooke looked at her and said, "Nothing new there, but at least you have the balls to tell me at my face. Seriously Peyton, I don't know what to say to or what you want me to say.."
At that time Peyton phone rang, she looked at it and saw it was Lucas calling. She looked at Brooke that said, "you can answer".
Peyton pick up the phone and said, "hey Luke, can I call you back?" Lucas said with a sad voice, "Peyt, I need to talk to you" Peyton heard his voice and said concerned, "Lucas what happened?"
Lucas said, "Can you come here now?" Peyton looked at Brooke and said, "okay, I'm going" and hung up.
Brooke got up and Peyton said, "there is something wrong, want come with me?" Brooke looked at her and said, "he didn't call me Peyton, you go" Peyton walked up to the door and said, "Brooke.. this.. I want do things different, I don't hurt you any more and not talk to you again.."
Brooke opened the door and said, "yeah it's kinda late for that Peyton. And that doesn't change what has happened and what is happening now, does it? Goodbye Peyton" She closed the door with Peyton on the other side and began to cry.
Rachel, who was listening to all in the stairs went to her and hugged her and said, "B. I never met anyone like you, you're the strongest person I know. I'm here for you, you can let it all go now"
Nathan had just told what the call was about to Haley and she was in shock and she said, "Nathan.. I don't know what to say,,. I can't believe it, are you okay? You know I'm here for you, right?"
Nathan looked at her and hug her and said, "thanks Hales, I know, but I don't know how I feel, I don't know what to think .."
At that Lucas came in Haley's mind and she said, "Nathan, you think they called Luke?" Nathan sat on the couch and said, "I think so Haley, after all he's his father too and Keith and Karen.." Nathan looked at Haley's face of concern and said, "you can go Hales, I know you want to go and see if they are ok, I think I'm going out too.. I don't want to stand still"
Haley looked at him and said, "no Nathan. I don't want to leave you alone, you're my husband! Why don't we go together? He's your brother".
Nathan put his coat and said, "Haley, I'm fine, you can go, I don't want to. He's my brother and I love him, but it's not the same thing, need time alone. I don't really want to see him right now, and he did some things that I'm not very happy with it, so go.. I'm fine."
Haley nodded and said, "okay, just don't want to leave you alone, but I know you need time .. and other things with Lucas.. is about Brooke right?"
Nathan said, "yeah.. but it's not the time to talk about it, You know.. I think I'm going to see her, so this way I'm not alone and she knows me since childhood, she knows everything.. and you go see Lucas"
Haley picked up her coat and said, "okay, but if something happen call me, after I see Lucas I'll call you and meet you at Brooke's" and with at they left the apartment.
After Brooke stopped crying she and Rachel went to their room in silence and were so distracted with their thoughts that didn't heard the noise downstairs. Nathan arrived at Rachel's house, went inside without knocking.
Brooke and Rachel were lying down when Nathan opened the bedroom door, they jump in fright and Rachel said, "Gosh Nate are you trying to kill us with fright or something?!"
Nathan standing at the door said, "at least it's me, how many times I have to tell you to lock the door!"
Before Rachel could say something else Brooke looked at his face and saw something, sadness, she hasn't seen this look in a long time and went to him and hugged him. Rachel without understanding what was going on said, "what happened?"
Brooke pulled Nathan to bed with her and said, "Nathan I know this look, what your father did?" Rachel was still trying to follow what was happening, Brooke looked at Nathan and that said, "you won't believe it… I'm still not believing myself, it's serious B. very serious"
Brooke looked into his eyes and said, "Nate tell me, what happened?" Nathan looked down and said, "He's in jail" Brooke and Rachel looked at each other and Nathan continued, "it was him who killed Keith, he surrendered himself to the police today".
Lucas and Peyton were in bed talking, Lucas had told everything that happened to her and he was calmer. Haley opened the door to Luke's room and saw them in bed and wonder, what was Peyton doing here, she came in and asked Lucas, "you know?"
Lucas looked at Peyton and said, "yeah, when I got home and my mom told me" Haley sat in the chair and said, "how are you?" Luke settled himself in bed and said, "better now, I didn't know what to think, but I called Peyton, we talked, I'm fine, and Nathan?"
Haley now offended that Lucas called Peyton and not her or his brother or even Brooke said, "he's..not so good, but tells me that he's fine, you know how it is" Peyton looked at her and said, "where is he? Why aren't you with him?"
Haley took a deep breath to calmed herself down, Peyton is one of her best friends but what she is doing isn't right and the tone of her question wasn't the most friendly one, Haley looked at her and replied calmly, "this is between me and my husband, I came here to see how my best friend is, but apparently he doesn't need me"
Haley got up and Luke said, "Haley, hales, it's not true, don't go away I need you too" Haley sat down and looked at Luke who said, "where is Nate?"
Haley said, "We talked after the we heard, I wanted to come see you and he knew that, he told me to come and stay with you and he went to see Brooke" A wave of guilt hung in the room, Lucas and Peyton looked and said the same time, "Brooke!?"
Brooke and Rachel were in shock with the news, they couldn't think of anything to say and Nathan said, "I know...I said it was serious, I don't know what to do now, I don't know what to think.."
Brooke stopped him holding his hand and said, "Nate, look at me, I know you since we were babies, I saw all sides of you and I know how your father was..well..is, you are one of the best guys I know, if not the best, What he did doesn't define you, it has nothing to do with you. After all that happened to you, you overcame all and became a better person, someone who everyone can count on, I don't want this to change you. You are strong Nate, you are better than him".
Nathan looked at her with tears in his eyes and Brooke went on, "I know that no matter what he's always going to be your father and you will always love him and that's ok. I'm here Nate, for whatever you need, we'll get over it."
Nathan looked at her and said, "thanks B. you have no idea how much I needed to hear that", he wiped the tears that were now falling from her eyes and continued, "thanks for everything, you're right, he made his choice when he pulled that trigger and I'm doing mine, I don't need him in my life, I have amazing friends and it's all I need".
Brooke smiled and hugged him and Nathan said, "I missed our talks" they looked to the side and saw Rachel and Brooke said, "come here slut, group hug! I know you feel left out there".
Nathan and Rachel laughed and she said, "I'm not bitch, I'm just thinking how much drama more we'll have in our lives, because I want a warning next time" the three began to laugh, Nathan pulled Rachel and the three hugged.
The three sat on the bed and Brookes said, "Nate, does your mother knows?" Nathan said, "I don't think so, she is still in rehab, I'm going there over the weekend and talk to her, she was going to be out, but after all this I don't know what will happen".
Brooke and Rachel nodded and Rachel said, "if you want the company we can go with you right B.?" Brooke agreed and Nathan said, "thanks, I'll let you know, but let's change the subject what you wanted talk to me Brooke?"
Brooke looked at Rachel and said, "oh…about that.. I don't think the timing id right, you have a lot going on .." Rachel interrupted and said, "Brooke don't be a coward and tell to him, the soon you say it will be better you'll see".
Brooke looked at her and said, "bitch! I thought I was going to decide when" Rachel shot back, "that was when I thought you would do the right thing, slut!"
Nathan realized that if he didn't interrupt this discussion things would get worse and said, "Ok! Ok! You two stop this, Brooke, I'm here, spit it out. What is it? Tell me please" Brooke looked at him and said, "okay, but you have to stay calm, because I don't know yet how to handle it and I need you" Nathan agreed, and Brooke said, "So.. Nate.. I'm pregnant".
