SURPRISE,SURPRISE

Flashback

The computer screen that sat in front of him mocked him with its blank. brightness. He had been at this for three solid days. He would come into his room, turn on his laptop, and sit there , worthlessly sitting there , not typing a single thing. The tediousness of it all was starting to grate on his nerves.

The sad part was the fact that he couldn't refer to the problem as writers block. His fingers were practically twitching with the need get this out. His mind had been running constantly, the thoughts in his head taking him away from his confusing reality.

He felt the need to put his feelings into words, to add description to it all. Thoughts of a kiss that three days later he could still feel on his lips. If he could write it and describe it he was sure to almost relive the experience. His emotions ran rampid, ranging from guilt to sadness to euphoria and finally anger. He knew that once he started to write it he wouldn't be able to stop himself. It would turn into an obsession, this extreme need to write about something that was forbidden to him, his pretty girl.

"Still blocked" his fiancé asked walking into the room, finding a seat on his lap.

"Yeah, I'm just drawing blank," he stated never once turning his full attention to her, his forehead furrowed in the all to familiar broody expression.

Peyton took a hand and brought it up to run through his messy blond locks" I have some news, that might turn out to be just the inspiration you need" she told him

Lucas jerked his head up, he had a gut feeling this news wasn't going to hit him the way she thought it would " what's that" he inquired stilling himself for what ever it was to come.

Peyton was bursting with happiness, all her dreams finally coming true" were pregnant!" she shouted waiting for the smile she knew would light his face up, but the only things his face held were shock and confusion "wha…what" he stuttered out trying to grasp hold of the fact that his fate was pretty much sealed now. He was going to be a father, he was going to marry Peyton and have a family with …her. He loved her he really did but he couldn't summon up the excitement that he knew she was now searching his features for.

"are you sure"

Peyton frowned, she was expecting a different reaction. This was not going the way she envisioned it when she left the doctors office. " the doctor confirmed it this morning." She stated simply

"OH" was all he could think of to say in that moment

" Lucas, what's going on I thought you wanted children, you don't seem to excited"

"You just caught me off guard is all. Its a lot to process" he rationed trying to stall the tears that were ready to fall from her green eyes. His features softened and he lifted a hand to graze her cheek. He felt like a jerk. "of course I'm happy , Like I said it just caught me of guard""really" she asked turning her face into the palm of his hand, her eyes seeking out the truth in his.

She always had a way to make him feel the need to comfort her " absolutely" he lied, giving her a chaste kiss on the forehead.

Offering him a small smile she got up from her spot on his lap " well I guess I'll go get dinner started , and we can talk about this when you've had a chance to wrap your head around it."

With that Lucas rose from his seat to stand in front of her "I kind of told the guys I would meet them for a game" He told another lie, but he had to get some air and be alone with his thoughts.

"I guess I will see you when you get back then" She said turning to leave the room.

"Peyton" Lucas called out to her

Pausing mid stride she brought her head around to face him "YES"

"You know I love you right"

Peyton lips turned up into a smile her face bighting instantly " of course, I love you to" She said before turning to leave the room.

That wasn't a lie. Lucas really did love Peyton, he always had, he just wasn't sure it was the right kind of love,

Peyton hummed to her self while staring at her ultrasound picture, and daydreaming about her future with Lucas. She was suddenly jerked out of her thoughts by the piercing sound of the door bell. Setting the picture down, she went to answer the front door.

Once she opened the door she was greeted with the last person she wanted to see. "What the hell are you doing here, I told you last month when you showed up to stay the hell away from me , especially after what you pulled the last time." she spat out. She didn't need Julian Baker messing up her life.

Julian just gave her his signature grin " and like I told you the last time, this has nothing to do with you. I am here to offer your boyfriend the opportunity of a life time, you should be jumping for joy."

Jumping for joy was the last thing she had on her mind in that moment. " he's my fiancé, and I know you're up to something. You do remember what happened last time you showed up with this exact same excuse " she got out rolling her eyes,

Julian just strode past her into the house uninvited. With a little chuckle he took a seat on her couch, propping his feet on the coffee table as if he owned the place. Knocking a piece of paper on the floor he bent to retrieve it, the smile on his face disappearing in an instant.

Noticing what had grabbed his attention Peyton started to panic. With his jaw clenched Juliann looked from the ultra sound picture to her, confusion and anger present in his eyes "Well well…… what do we have here. I just have one question for you though"

Peyton masked her worry , putting on an act of indifference "Oh yeah, and what's that" She asked crossing her arms over her chest.

Glancing from her to the picture and back his lips formed into a sick little smirk " Is it mine"

Okay guy let me know what you think, and until next much love my homies
