Our Middle

Chapter 6

The expression on Lucas's face softened. (I can't believe this is happening.)

(I know I told you I would never cut you out of my life. And I meant that. I know things between us haven't been defined but this changes the things.) Lucas said.

(I don't need anything but to know it's going to be the three of us.)

(I can wait on the rest.) Peyton insisted.

(Of course I'll be there as much as I can.) Lucas reassured her.

(Lucas thank God. I found you out here.) Haley said.

As she rushed over. Ignoring the sight of Peyton.

(Brooke needs you and it can't wait. She's on the way to the hospital.) Haley announced.

Lucas 's heart sunk. (I need to get over where is she?) Lucas asked.

Haley whispered the hospital location in his ear and took off running.

Haley stared Peyton. (What did I just walk in on?) Haley questioned.

Peyton smiled. (I'm having Lucas 's child. The way it was meant to be.) She replied. As she walked away.

...

Brooke's mind was racing. Her emotions changed every few seconds.

(What's going on with my baby?) Brooke pleaded.

(We won't know what's going on until we give you an ultrasound.)

(But that can wait. We need to make sure you don't have internal injuries.) The doctor explained.

(I'm okay. All I care about is my baby. Please.) Brooke insisted.

(Okay we'll give you an ultrasound. It's early on in the pregnancy. We can make no guarantees.) She explained. Add she left the exam room.

Brooke was in the exam room alone. Rachel wanted to come in but couldn't.

Brooke was wearing a hospital gown. Her legs hanging off the bottom.

She was scared nervous and felt all alone. Tears welling in her eyes.

She felt her heart jump into her throat

At the sight of Lucas. Bursting through the door.

(I'm sorry I wasn't here earlier. What happened.?) Lucas questioned.

Brooke just started to cry. (What if the baby is gone.? I didn't want it?)

( I wanted to give it away. What if it felt that? ) Brooke asked.

(What do you want now?) Lucas asked. Letting her go from his arms. Once she calmed.

(I want this baby. I want it more than anything.) Brooke revealed.

(Who are you?) The doctor asked.

(Her boyfriend. The father of the baby.) Lucas replied.
