Everything Changed
Chapter 17
"We should cool things down. We're close good friends."
"Alot has happened. When we do become a couple."
"It has to be the right time the circumstances need to be calm and not full of turmoil or pregnancy hormones." Brooke proclaimed.
"You're right. I just need you to know you aren't alone in this." Lucas proclaimed.
"I have you. Our friends. I'm far from alone. I'm grateful for the community i have. We'll be in touch." Brooke said. As she got up. And made her way towards the door to leave.

Weeks Later
"When i see you all pregnant and glowing sometimes i miss being pregnant but then i go home to my three kids and know i couldn't handle anymore."
"You couldn't be more beautiful." Haley gushed.
Brooke smiled happily.
"You know i've never been one for motherhood and pregnancy but every so often i wonder if i could do it." Rachel admitted.
"No more crowding my god child." Peyton said. Putting her hand on Brooke's stomach.
"There is no need to fight. This baby will be raised by all three of you. So get ready." Brooke insisted.
The waiter came over with menus and asked about drinks as the women were now settled in for dinner.
After spending a couple of hours bonding with her close girlfriends and taking home dessert.
Brooke drove home. Made her way upstairs and into the home.
She put the dessert into the fridge. Before heading upstairs.
She went through the hallway and into the bedroom she had picked out as the nursery. She couldn't have been more surprised.
To see the nursery furniture all set up.
She knew Lucas and her guy friends had done this. She was relieved.
Brooke turned on the light and sat down on the rocking chair near the window. Feeling herself relax.
Her hands on her baby bump. She was 17 weeks along.
She had strech marks. Round ligment pain. Baby was the size of a large onion. Growing appetite. Back aches.
"Momma loves you so much."
"I cannot wait for you to meet you're big brothers. You're aunts and uncles. Lucas."
"You are so wanted. We're a team little one." Brooke said. Talking to the baby inside of her.
Weeks Later
At 21 weeks i was 5 months into my pregnancy. Baby was kicking and stretching. Juggling the store. The boys. Friends.
It was more then could of ever imagined.
My life was so full of possibility. Hope. And life that had yet to be experienced.
"Let's go get breakfast for ourselves and you're brothers." Brooke said. With a smile. As she got out of bed. Left her bedroom.
Checked in on the boys who were still asleep.
She started to make her way downstairs.
"My god. What a vision."
"You're hair. That body. I've missed you Brooke." Julian said.
Brooke's eyes went wide. She felt her heart start to race.
"Julian. How did you. Just go away. Please." Brooke said.
"You didn't think i would give back my key did you?"
"I just want and need to feel you again. You're lips."
"You're body. I need you Brooke."
"You are my teen fantasy come true. I gave you that baby growing inside you."
"And i want is to touch and taste you again." Julian proclaimed.
As he soon grabbed onto her and started to kiss her.
He tightened his grip on her.
"I love you. I can't live without you Brooke."
"You're all i think about. I've tried for months to let you go."
"You're a part of me. You're all i've ever wanted." Julian proclaimed.
"Julian stop it! You're hurting me!" Brooke exclaimed.
His eyes dark his grip going tighter.
His breath on her skin. Digging into her.
As he kissed her furiously. Pushing her down on the staircase beneath him.
Brooke attempted to push her away. And when she did.
His grip loosened and Brooke started to run.
He grabbed onto her. Pulling her back down.
Brooke attempted to shield her belly even though.
She had already fallen.
"Ow! Oh god!" Brooke exclaimed.
As she grabbed onto her belly.
Julian began to panic.
"Leave our momma alone!" The boys exclaimed.
As they started to run down the stairs.
