So this is the prologue so it's kind of short. The story will go back and forth. There will be tons of flashbacks of the gang, from ages 2-45. Also, part of the story will be about their kids in high school at Tree Hill High. So please review and I'll try to update as much as possible!

Flying Without Wings

The snow fell lightly on the ground outside and frost covered the windows. It was just like a winter wonderland. But for the three children sitting by the fire, it was the worst day in the world.

A pretty brunette walked was standing at the window, looking silently at the falling snow. She had on a black dress and her light curls fell around her shoulders. Her hands were laid lightly on her 8 month pregnant stomach. All she wanted to do was curl up in her bed and hide. Hide from everything. The past three days have been the longest days in the world. I guess that's what happens when you lose someone you love.

Flashback:

4 days ago

"And where do you think you're going?" she asked her husband as he grabbed his coat.

Her husband smiled "Santa needs to finish his Christmas shopping."

"We already got the kids all of their presents." She said to him as he caressed her stomach.

"Who said it was for the kids?" he asked, kissing her lightly on the lips.

She laughed "I love you so much."

"I love you too." He said "I'll be home in an hour."

Present:

Sadly, he never came home.

"Mom?" an older boy walked up to where his mother was standing, looking out the window.

"Yes?" she asked quietly.

"The boys are in bed. Why don't you get upstairs to bed?" he offered.

"I'm gonna sleep on the couch tonight again." She told him, walking towards the couch and sitting down.

"Mom, it's not good for you or the baby to sleep on the couch. C'mon, you need to get to bed." He said, offering his hand.

But his mother shook her head "It's too hard to sleep up there….I've never slept in that bed without your father beside me."

The boy lowered his head "I know Mom, I know."

"Goodnight baby." She said quietly, kissing her son on his forehead.

"Goodnight Mom, I love you." The boy said, walking up the stairs to his bedroom.

This young boy's name is Jake Scott. Jake lived with his mother, father, and two little brothers in Tree Hill, North Carolina. He is the star of the basketball team, and the most popular boy in school. He has shaggy blonde hair and big blue eyes; he looks exactly like his father. His two little brothers, Clay and Cole, are 12 year old twins. They too look exactly like their father. Tomorrow though, Clay and Cole are going to move in with their Grandparents until everything gets back to normal.

You see, three long days ago, their father was in a terrible car accident and passed away. Their mother, who is 8 months pregnant, is trying her best to stay strong, but with everything going on, it is so hard.

Their mother's name is Brooke Scott….previously Brooke Davis. Brooke Scott has been married to her husband, Lucas Scott, for 25 years. She is a huge fashion designer with the biggest fashion line in the country. She had her first son, Jake, who is 17 years old, when she was 28 years old. And she had the twins when she was 33. Now, Brooke Scott is 45 years old, and pregnant with her fourth. She was so excited for the baby, hoping after three boys she's finally have a girl. Her husband was hoping too, hoping for a little girl to teach to play basketball…..of course Brooke objected to this. But now, Brooke isn't sure about the baby, she doesn't know if she can't do it….at least not without her husband, Lucas Scott.

Brooke and Lucas Scott were the perfect family, they always were. They were high school sweethearts and went to the same college. They live in a huge house on the beach and are surrounded by great friends. But none of that matters to Brooke now….since her husband isn't here with her, nothing matters.
