Chapter 2

Lucas heart began to race at the news that he had been in a coma for two years. He had missed out on two years of his life and his friends and families life. The the thought hit Lucas where was his mom and what has happened to her and how was she dealing with what happened to him. The more Lucas thought about what he missed the more upset he became. The monitors started to go off and Haley began to panic.

"Lucas you need to come down. Just try and take big breaths," Haley said trying not to panic about what was happening to her friend.

Lucas tried coming down but his breathing was becoming labored. The doctors rushed into the room began to work on him. One of the doctors pulled Haley aside to find out what happened.

"Can you tell me what happened?", the doctor asked her.

"He woke up and I told him that some of the things that he thought happened really didn't and I mentioned that he had been in a coma for two years. What happened to him? Is he going to be okay?," she replied with tears streaming down her face.

"We need to work on getting him stable and I need you to step out the room until we do." Haley nodded her head and preceded out the door. She stood outside his hospital room pacing up and down the hallway waiting on word from the doctor to come out and explain what was going on. The doctor exited the room and headed toward Haley.

"What's going on? Is he okay?", she asked.

"Lucas suffered from a panic attack. We gave him a mild sedate and he is resting right now. You might want to take this time and call your family and friends to let them know that he is awake."

Haley called Karen and let her know that Lucas was awake. She walked back into the room and sat in the chair and waited for Lucas to wake up. Lucas began to stir and Haley moved by his bedside.

"Hales?", he said as his eyes began to open.

"I'm right here Lucas," she answered. She saw the tears that began to fill in his eyes.

"What's wrong Luke?", she asked.

"What's wrong is that I'm lost two years of my life and things I thought happened didn't and things that I wished didn't happened have!",he yelled.

"What are you talking about. What do you wish didn't happen but did?," Haley asked completely confused by what he was talking about.

"Keith," he whispered.

"What about Keith?", she asked.

Lucas looked at Haley like she had two heads and said, "He's dead Hales."

"Lucas what are you talking about?" she questioned.

"He dead because I went back into that school and its my fault that my mom is alone," he said with tears in his eyes.

Before Haley could respond to what Lucas was talking about the door opened and Karen walked in. Lucas look up and saw his mother as she made her way toward the bed. Haley moved so Karen could embrace him.

"I have missed you so much my boy," she said with tears running down her face.

"I missed you too," he answered.

"What about me?" questioned the voice from the doorway.

Lucas moved his eyes from his mother's face and toward the door. What he saw made him speechless. There stood Keith holding a little girl that looked to be about two years old.

"Keith?", he questioned.

Keith made his way over toward the bed. He handed the little girl to Karen and embrace Lucas. Lucas held onto Keith like he was afraid that if he let go he would disappear. Finally the two men broke apart and Lucas just stared at Keith.

"I can't believe you're here," he said.

"Where else would I be son?", Keith questioned.

"I thought you where dead." Keith looked at Lucas like he had lost his mind. "You went into the school after me and you got shot," Lucas said with so much conviction in his voice.

"Lucas I did go into the school after you that day but I didn't get shot I'm the one that found you," he said.

Lucas mind was reeling from the change of events that was happening. Karen noticed that he seemed to be thinking hard about things that he thought happened and the things that actually did. So she decided that now would be a good time for a subject change. She moved toward the bed with the little girl in her hands and sat down.

"Lucas I would like you to meet your little sister Lily," she said.

Lucas stared at the little girl she was the same girl from his dream. He was glad at least she was one thing that remained the same.

"Hi, Lily I'm your brother Lucas," he said.

"Hi," she replied and then she buried her head into her mother's shoulder.

"So what else has happened with you guys in the last two years?", he questioned.

"Well you remember how I wanted to adopt you before the shooting?" Keith questioned. Lucas nodded his head and Keith continued. "We went ahead with the adoption and you are now legally mine."

Lucas nodded his head as the tears filled up in his eyes again. Keith placed his hand on his son's shoulder as he was also overcome with emotion.

"So did you two finally tie the knot?", Lucas asked.

"We wanted to wait until you woke up to get married and now that you are awake we can start planning the wedding," Karen answered.

Lucas sat there wondering how they could put some thing so important on hold for the possibility of him waking up.

Karen grabbed her son's hand and gave it a squeeze and said, "We knew that you where going to wake up and we wanted you to be apart of the most important day of our lives."

They talked for few more hours until it was time for them to go home. Lucas said goodbye to his parents and little sister as they left. Haley moved to hug Lucas and say goodbye.

"So Hales when are you going to tell me what is going on in your life and tell me about what happened to everyone else," he said.

"Lucas I promise to tell you all about me and Nate tomorrow. You have had enough information for one day get some rest and I will see you tomorrow."

Haley left the room and Lucas was alone with his thoughts. He wondered where Nathan was and what he had been up to. He also wondered where Peyton was but the biggest question in his mind was where was his Pretty Girl. The thoughts in Lucas's head finally subsided and he fell asleep wondering if all his questions would be answered tomorrow.
