Hey guys, I know it's been a while since my last update.

Okay and I know you don't like where I have gone with Karen and I'm really sorry about that I am because it hurts me to write it just a much.

I hope ya'll keep reading though. Thank you for all your reviews and likes. I appreciate it always. I do love reading your reviews even if they are negative.

I hope you enjoy this chapter.

Four months had pass and we find out our babies gender soon. Karen has gotten progressively worse. She is now currently house ridden. No energy to do much. We do her shopping and take care of her.

It's so heart breaking to see her like this. This strong independent women become so helpless and needing everything pretty much doing for her. My heart ached every day with every change in her.

"So I was thinking of moving into my ma's house with her" Lucas says walking into the new babies nursery.

"You want to move out?"

He shakes his head moves towards me sitting down in front of me "I can go between here and there, but mostly there just to help out and look after Lily".

"Okay I understand that" I also nod "the twins and I will visit when we can"

"I just want you to take it easy with the twins and the baby and I will come by to see you and the twins. Please just don't stress so much about anything"

"I won't I promise" he smiles and leans in giving me a kiss on the lips "I love you, you know that right?"

I nod "of course I do Luke. I love you too"

"I better head off. I'm taking Wynter over to Peyton and Wyatt will come with me"

"Wait Wynter is going over to Peyton?"

"Yeah Peyton wanted to take the stress off us"

"But she is expecting too"

"I know baby, but Wynter is good for her and she knows that" I just nod

"How about I take Wynter and go see Peyton. That way I can get my mind off of some stuff"

"That's a good idea actually" he agrees "so we rain check the nursery?"

I look around and nod "yeah, I think once we find out the sex tomorrow then we can finish the nursery better"

"Okay pretty girl" he leans in and kisses me

"So are you bringing Wyatt back tonight and staying at your Ma's?"

"Yeah I'll bring Wyatt by Peyton's later today and then grab some stuff from ours and head over to Ma's place"

"Okay" I sounded a little sad, but I totally understand why he was staying with his Ma.

"I'll meet you at the doctors tomorrow mid day"

I nod "Haley said she'll look after Wyatt as she hasn't spent time with the twins because of well you know and Peyton of course wants Wynter. It's just amazing how close those two are"

"Okay that's perfect" he kisses the side of my head "I'm gonna head out. I'll see you tomorrow"

"Okay. Love you"

"And I love you"

"So how is everything?" Peyton asked as we sit in the lounge area with Wynter watching The little mermaid.

"Erm.. Better. I think Lucas actually listened to me. He is slowly letting me in" I answer "he is staying with Karen for a little while which I totally understand why"

"Which is understandable" Peyton says "and the baby, how are you and the baby?"

"We are good" I place a hand on my stomach "we find out the sex tomorrow which I'm super excited about. We can then finalise the nursery. I think completing the nursery will be my safe haven. Give me something to focus on although I could never compete with what you did for the twins"

"if I wasn't heavily pregnant I would do the same thing for this baby"

"I know" I agree "Lucas and the guys are going to build everything. I'm just going to paint it. I mean I am artistic too just not as great as you"

"I'm sure what ever you do will be great Brooke"

Peyton and I talked a little longer about her an the baby and how our lives have turned out and how happy we were in our relationships. Anything that got my mind of reality.

"Mama" I look up at Wynter as she was sat on her bean bag Peyton brought her when she moved into her house "Mama"

"Yes princess"

"Are mermaids real?"

"No one has ever seen a real mermaid" I answer "but anything is possible"

She smiled and her eyes lit up "I would love to be a mermaid Mama just like Ariel"

"With those big blue eyes and that pretty smile you don't need to be a mermaid because you're a princess" she giggled making me smile.

"Mama pretty too"

"Awe thank you baby girl" she giggles again and then turns back to the movie

"You and Lucas make really cute babies Brooke"

She was right. We do.

5 in the evening and Lucas dropped Wyatt off. He and Wynter watched Nemo and we had dinner at Peyton's and then I took the twins home. I was exhausted, but yet I couldn't settle yet. It was now 9pm and the twins were fast asleep in their beds. I flicked through Netflix and couldn't find anything I wanted to watch so I got up and headed to the nursery.

The nursery was just next too the twins bedroom. I peaked into the twins room and saw they were fast asleep. Their steady breathing made me happy. I push open the nursery door and stand with my arms crossed looking into the room.

The theme of this room was going to be if a boy a safari theme and if a girl a elephant theme. I could picture both in my head as I looked around and what I would do each theme. I was excited. I placed a hand on my belly and for some reason I had a feeling of girl. I smiled at that.

I walked into the nursery and I could picture the name printed on the wall above the changing table. The mobile above the crib. The beside light attached to the wall.

I sat on the carpeted floor feeling the fluffy fabric under my feet. We had brought some neutral clothing already which I have washed and put away.

It felt like hours as I sat there just looking around the nursery and feeling the baby in my stomach. Watching as my belly grew each day seeing something different and feeling it too. It was an amazing experience and I am so grateful to be able to experience it.

The next morning I dropped Wynter with Peyton and Wyatt with Haley and headed to the doctors surgery for my appointment. I got there first hoping Lucas remembered to come today. I say in the waiting room just staring at the wall opposite where I was sitting looking at each poster about birth, after birth.

Still no Lucas. My heart pounded against my chest and the time got closer to my appointment time.

"Miss Davis" I look up at the nurse and nod standing to my feet.

Still no Lucas

"How are you today Brooke?" I sit on the bed in the office

"I'm okay thanks" I reply

"No Lucas today?"

"Erm I think he's just running late" I reply just as the door to the room opened and Lucas walked in

"Sorry I'm late" he whispers walking over to me and kissing my cheek

"we haven't started yet"

I laid down and the nurse placed the cold gel on my stomach and then used the toggle thing moving it around to find the baby.

"Ahhh there they are" she says smiling "a perfect baby growing at a great speed. Everything seems normal" She says "did we want to know the sex today?"

Lucas looked to me and then we both said "yes"

The nurse laughed "okay well..." she moved the toggle around a little longer "ahhh okay so the baby has finally moved showing us that she is excited to meet her mom and dad"

"She?" the nurse nodded "oh my god like another princess. Wynter is going to love having a baby girl"

"And she'll be perfect just like the twins" Lucas leaned down and placed a kiss to my lips "you have given me so much Brooke and I will forever be grateful"

"I'm just glad you are able to be here this time Luke. It's nice to share these moments with you"

He nods and leans in to kiss me "I love you so much you know that right?"

"Of course I do because I love you just as much" he smiles and gives me another kiss just as the nurse comes back with the photos.

"Okay these are for you. You are good to go when you're ready" I thank the nurse and wipe the stuff off of my belly and we head out.

PLEASE REVIEW!!!

Love you all so much
