Hey guys,
I'm gonna try and finish this story with regular updates.
Thank you all for being so patient with me.
Hope you enjoy this next chapter
2 months had passed and everything has dramatically changed. Karen has gotten weaker as the weeks went on. The doctors said she hasn't got much more time and I could see it was breaking Lucas apart but by bit.
That is the worse part that he is hurting g and there is absolutely nothing I can do to stop the pain for him.
Baby Scott was growing nicely in my stomach. She has been kicking away a lot recently. The flutters were nice. It was nice feeling her moving around.
I sat on the sofa with my sketch pad. I needed something to occupy my mind. I was continuing my line for children. I was 8 months pregnant and my stomach was slowly dropping. She was weighing on my back just that little more than usual.
"Mommy Nemo" Wyatt sat down on his bean bag on the floor looking up at the TV. I put Nemo on for him and go back to sketching.
My phone buzzed and I glanced over to see Jake's message come through.
Peyt is in labour. She told me to tell you not to come up to the hospital, but she'll ring you once baby is delivered. She said she loves you.
I shoot to my feet and waddle over to Wyatt "baby we are going to go see Auntie Peyt, she is having a baby" Wyatt nodded and stood to his feet "put your shoes in for mommy and grab your jacket" Wyatt did as I asked and we headed to the hospital.
Once we arrived the nurse at the main station sent me to the floor she was admitted too. I waddled up there holding Wyatt's hand. Finally reaching the right place I see Jake pacing outside her room.
Horror shadowed over me and my heart hammered against my chest. Fear crept in and I hope with everything in me that Peyton and the baby were okay.
It's like Jake could sense me. He stopped and turned to me. Our eyes locked as I saw the worried look he had and my heart dropped to the floor.
"The text said for you not to come to the hospital Brooke"
"As if I was going to miss my bestfriend giving birth" I reply walking towards him "but by the look on your face I should be worried. Very worried"
Jake looked away from me and ran a hand over his face and sat down in one of the chairs.
"What happened?"
"She shouted for me and when I got to our bedroom she was sat on the floor with blood all over her hand crying and terrified. I swooped her up and we rushed here fearful that we were going to lose the baby" he says tears filling his eyes "she was rushed into the delivery room and then the nurse said that the baby's heart rate was dropping and they sent me out as a lot of nurses and doctors rushed in"
"Oh my god" I whispered sitting down beside him with Wyatt beside me "I'm sure they will be okay Jake" and I had to believe that. My bestfriend had to be okay. She had to. I can't do this without her. We all need them to pull through.
It felt like we were sitting there for days waiting for news about Peyton and the baby. Jake was beside himself. Lucas had come and got Wyatt a few hours ago and they both told me I should go home and wait for news, but I wasn't going to leave while my bestfriend was going through all of this. I know for a fact she would have done the same.
Lucas didn't fight me on this because he knew he was not going to win. He gave me a kiss and told Jake to call him if anything changes.
What seemed like forever finally a doctor approached with a pad in his hand.
"Family of Miss Sawyer" Jake shot up and hurried over to the doctor. I waddled behind him "Miss Sawyer is back from surgery. She is on recovery, but has not woken up yet"
Oh thank god. She was okay. I let out a breath I didn't realise I was holding.
"And the baby" the doctor looked up at Jake and dread washed over me. Oh god please no.
And then a smile formed on his face and the dread was gone.
"The baby survived. Congratulations you have a baby girl. She is a strng one. Such a fighter. She is in the nursery waiting for a visit from you"
Jake turned around tears running down his cheeks. He embraced me in a hug sobbing into my shoulder.
"You are able to see Miss Sawyer any time"
I nod thanking him as he walked away.
"Its okay Jake" I rub his back as he continued to sob "they're okay. You and Peyt have what you've always wanted. Your baby girl is okay"
"So how about you go visit your little girl and I'll go sit with Peyt until you come back"
Jake pulled away and wiped at his face "are you sure? Do you think Peyton would be upset if I don't go see her first?"
I shake my head "I think she'll be mad if you don't go assure your daughter first"
Jake nodded and kissed my cheek "thank you so much for coming Brooke. I don't think I could have done this alone"
"Anytime Jake" he smiled and headed down to the nursery to see his little girl.
I wiped at my own eyes and head down to recovery. I pushed the double doors and walk in. I see the number 3 above the curtain. I pull the curtain back and Peyton was lying on the hospital bed with a drip in her hand for fluids.
Her head turned and she gave me a weak smile. She was awake. I smiled too not releasing I was also crying until I felt water on my hand
"I told your stupid ass to stay at home until I messaged you"
"Yeah well your stupid ass didn't tell me you were having complications"
"I didn't want to worry you because if you didn't notice you are 8 months pregnant and I didn't want you to go into early labour"
I sat down beside her "we could have lost you" I whisper "I haven't felt that pain in my heart since Lucas almost died"
"I'm sorry I scared you"
"You didn't scare me Sawyer, you absolutely terrified me and Jake"
"Is he still here"
"Of course he is" I nod "he would never have left. You're the love of his life Peyt, you know that"
"Where is he"
"Gone to see baby girl" a smile formed on her lips and on mine.
"Is she okay" I nod "oh thank god. I was so worried I lost her. There was so much blood Brooke. I was so scared"
I take her hand in mine "I know Peyt, but she is okay and so are you" a tear falls down both of our cheeks "I'm so glad you're okay. I don't know what I'd do with you"
And then I felt it. A sharp pain rip through my body just as Jake came around the corner.
"Jake call Luke" I push out through a contraction "I think baby girl is coming"
And then it happened my water broke.
"Help, we need a nurse in here" Peyton pressed her nurse call bell.
The nurse came in "my friend Brooke has gone into labour"
This is the second time this has happened to me. I visited Lucas and my water broke. Its like the babies know when I'm in the hospital.
The nurse got me a wheelchair and wheeled me down to delivery.
Many hours later and i was walking around then labour room sweating from feeling so hot panting waiting for baby Scott to make an arrival. I wad only 5 centimetres dilated and I had to get to 10.
The twins didn't wait this long to enter the world.
"Brooke" Lucas came running into the room "are you okay"
I slowly nod breathing in and out "I'm okay just in labour" he smiled kissing my forehead.
"I came as soon as Jake rang me"
"Where are the twins?"
"With Haley and Nathan" he replies
The door to the room opened again and the nurse came back in "okay Brooke I need you to climb back on the bed so we can check you again" I did just that with the help of Lucas and the nurse.
"Okay Brooke you are almost there 1 more dilation to go" I laid back frustrated with that.
"How is Peyt and the baby?" I needed a little distraction
"I haven't asked. I came straight here to you"
I nodded and breathed thought about sharp pain panting through it.
"The name we've picked out for her, are we sure it's a great fit"
He nodded "Well it did take us 3 months to figure out a name , so yes I think it is perfect for her. We had to pick between two and that was the perfect one"
"Yeah I agree" he laughed.
"Okay Brooke I think your ready" Nurse Blakely says.
-*
"One last push for me Brooke. You're doing great"
I took all my strength that I had left and pushed so hard and then I stopped and laid back our of breathe.
"And she is here" Nurse Blakely says wrapping her in a pink blanket and taking her to the side.
"Wait she isn't crying" I say suddenly feeling worry creep up my body "why isn't she crying? Is she okay?"
"She's blue" one of the other nurses say "pass me the syringe" tears filled my eyes.
"Can someone please tell us what is going on"
And then a loud cry was heard in the room and I let out a breath I didn't realise I had inhaled.
"Congratulations you have healthy baby girl" Nurse Blakely handed her to me and she so beautiful with big doe eyes "have we got a name for her so we put it on her crib and her notes?"
"Oh yeah we have" I nod looking up at the nurse the back down at baby girl "welcome to the world Willow Karen Davis Scott"
