Behind Closed Doors
Chapter 11
It comes and goes in waves
I watched my wild youth. Diseapper in front of my eyes.
You slipped through my fingers.
Days Later
Brooke smiled brightly as she looked to the ultrasound screen. With Lucas by her side. She was one of the first appointments in her OBGYN's office for the day.
She explained the positive pregnancy test and why she was there. Wanting confirmation on that and to see how far along she was.
"From what i can see here you are pregnant."
"To be exact. You are 6 weeks along. Very early."
"The baby is the size of a sweet pea. As you can see here." The woman explained.
Brooke's face lit up. She gazed at Lucas.
"Look at what we made Luke. Our baby." Brooke said softly.
Lucas leaned over kissing her softly. Taking her hand in his.
"You'll be experiencing. Heartburn, nausea and frequent urination. Fatigue. Breast tenderness and changes."
"You should emotionally and mentally prepare as much as you can."
"Pregnancy is a life altering time for a woman and couple."
"I've been through it 4 times. But every time is different. This is a journey for the two of you to experienc together."
"I'll be back with a vitamins i want you to take throughout the pregnancy its importat for the baby." She advised before leaving the exam room.

Later on that day
"I know what i want for lunch. What are you thinking of ordering?" Lucas asked. Looking to his wife.
As the two sat across from each other at the nearby bistro.
"I can't decide. A grilled cheese and fries. Sounds good." Brooke replied. As the waiter came by to take their meal and drink orders.
"I'm here to love and support you through this. Cravings. Body aches. All of it. I can't wait." Lucas admitted.
"We're going to be a family. The three of us. I don't want to cry." Brooke replied.
"Just you wait until i'm hormonal and can't see past my belly." Brooke said.
"You're going to be stunning. I'm looking forward to watching our baby grow inside you. Feeling kicks." Lucas replied.
"You're going to be the best daddy. Keith, Lucas, Karen. For names so far." Brooke replied.
"Brooke, Penelope, Addison. Are my picks." Lucas said.
The food and drinks were soon plated in front of them.
"Sounds like you're holding out hope for a daughter. Mr. Scott." Brooke teased.
"I would love a son just the same. But something about having a mini Brooke just warms my heart." Lucas admitted.
"Look at the happy newlyweds." Peyton said. As she walked over to the table. With a smile.
