Episode 5 Ch.2 The Great Unknown

Peyton is at work when Spencer walks in. "I'm sorry I'm late."

Peyton laughed.

"What's so funny?"

"I just got here like five minutes ago."

"Oh good," Spencer sat down at his desk.

"I've been so busy lately. I barely have time to think." Her cell phone rings. "See never a spare moment for breathing." She answered the phone. "Yes…what?...Again…Okay…I'm on my way."

"What happened?"

"Lucy is sick again." She made finger quotations when she spoke. Peyton had picked Lucy up three times in the past couple of weeks, and it was getting old. "Life as a mother is never over."

Isabella walks into the café after her first eight a.m. class. She hated school, but it was part of her punishment. She wanted to go to the café to get some coffee and doughnuts.

She walked to the counter and bumped into Daniel. They just stared at each other. They hadn't seen each other in a very long time. Daniel thought that she was still as beautiful as she was before. He had missed the smell of her perfume and her beautiful smile that could light up a room.

Jenny is at home with her son Nicholas. Wesley is in his bedroom playing. Nicholas won't stop crying.

"Come on Nick…please stop crying…Mommy is tired of hearing it." She bounces him around, but he won't stop crying. "Please….I'm so sick of the crying…" She lays him down in the basinet with him still crying. "Just Shut Up!" She screamed as Julie walked back into the house. She was living with them.

"What are you doing here Julie?"

"I left some of my art stuff behind."

Jenny smiles and picks Nicholas up. "If you enjoy living here you will forget what you saw."

Julie just looks at her. She knew that something was wrong with Jenny, but she wasn't sure what it was, but she knew that whatever it was she had to tell Rob. He needed to know about his wife.

Peyton carries Lucy into the house and sits her on the couch. "Mommy I don't feel good." Lucy faked a cough.

"I know baby girl." She was pretty sure that Lucy was lying.

Lucas slowly walked downstairs. The doctor told him that he could walk around a little, but he could not under any circumstances stress himself out. Peyton still didn't let him get out of bed too much. He was still in a lot of pain.

"Hey what are you two doing home?"

Peyton looks at Lucas. "Lucy isn't feeling well."

Lucas walked over and sat next to Lucy. "Is my little girl not feeling good today?" Lucas felt her head. "You don't feel like you are running a fever."

"I just don't feel good daddy. Can we go upstairs and watch TV?"

"Sure…You go ahead, and I'll be upstairs in a minute."

"Okay daddy," Lucy ran upstairs like nothing was wrong with her.

Peyton looked at Lucas. "You do know that nothing is wrong with her?"

Lucas nodded his head as Peyton sat down beside him and touched his knee. "We have to talk to her."

"She just wants to spend sometime with me. I don't blame her."

Peyton rolled her eyes. Lucas had a soft spot for his little girls. "She can't think that this is okay."

"We can talk to her later. Can't I please just go watch some TV with her?" Lucas gave her the puppy dog face.

"Go ahead, but when I get home from work we have to talk to her."

"Okay deal…" Lucas smiled, gave her a kiss on the cheek, and stood up. "I love you Peyton, and I am so happy that you are going to be okay."

Peyton smiled, "Me too…I was so scared that I had cancer."

"I don't know what I would do without you."

"Yeah…yeah…" Peyton gave him a kiss. "Go watch TV with your faker of a daughter."

Lucas laughed and smiled. It was good to know that she was going to be okay, and he was going to have her in his life for a little while longer.

Aidan and Lily are sitting on his kitchen floor having a picnic. "This is the best picnic ever." Lily smiled.

"I thought you might think so. I know you love picnics."

"Yeah I think they are so sexy."

"I think you are sexy." He grabbed her hand and pulled her body closer to his. "I love you so much."

"I know you do. You tell me that all the time."

"Well I'm going to tell you how much I love you every single day for the rest of our lives." He kissed her forehead. "I'm not only going to tell you, but I'm going to show you."

Lily smiled.

"I know I've said if before Lily, but you are my whole world, and I know that we are supposed to be together for ever."

"I know that too." Lily smiled and he kissed her lips slowly letting it linger.

"You are never going to have to worry about anything. I am going to take care of you forever." He rubbed his hand up and down her back sending chills down her spine. His touch was mesmerizing and his kiss was even better.

Elizabeth and Noah are standing outside of Andy and Michelle's house with Emma Peyton. "I am officially freaking out."

"We have to do this. We don't have any choice."

"I know, but they are going to want to know why we kept it a secret for two weeks."

"We are going to tell them exactly what we rehearsed. We're in this together." She smiled. Noah knocked on the door. Michelle opened the door.

"Noah…"

"Hey mom…"

"What's going on?"

"Well mom I think you should meet your granddaughter, Emma Peyton." Noah smiled and pointed to his daughter who was sitting in her stroller.

Michelle's mouth popped open. She couldn't believe it. She was confused.

Alright so there is chapter 2. Let me know what you thought.
