The
year is 2021. Jake and Peyton have Jenny, along with three other
children. Lucas and Brooke also have three children of their own.

Backstory
The couples have scattered all
over the US after high school (Lucas and Brooke to New York, Jake and
Peyton in Savannah, Haley and Nathan to California)and now the itme
has come for their fifteen year reunion. They have all kept in touch
with each other, but since they are so far away and involved with
children they don't know everything about each person. When they see
each other again there will be some changes...
Friday
before Reunion
Lucas and Brooke have gotten to Tree Hill a
week before the reunion, and are staying with Karen and Keith. Nathan
and Haley had also arrived a week early, and are staying with Deb.
Peyton and jake are not scheduled to arrive until the Monday of the
week of the reunion, and plan on staying at the local Tree Hill
Inn.
Brooke and Lucas
"Hey Broody, watcha
thinking about?" Brooke asked he quiet husband.
"Oh,
nothing. Just thinking about how long it has been since we have seen
Jake and Peyton. When was the last time? Five years ago? At the last
reunion I think it was. Peyton was pregnant with their third kid
right?"
"Mmm, I think you are right. She is my best
friend and I cannot believe that it has been so long sinc eI last saw
her. I did talk to her, though, juts before we left and they are
supposed to be getting inot Tree Hill on Monday. Oh, speaking of
arrivals, where did Haley say they were? Are they there yet?"
Brooke was definitely anxious to get back and see everyone.
"They
had just gotten to the cafe when she called. Mom and Keith said hi
and they can't wait to see us." Lucas told her. At that moment
they passed the sign welcoming them to Tree Hill, NC.
"Well,
we're here. Are you ready to do this?" he asked his lovely
wife.
Brooke answered somewhat pensively,"as ready as I'll
ever be, I guess. But, husband, can we wait to tell? Can we not say
anything right away?"
Luke looked at her, "Hey, Cheery,
its going to be ok. Sweetie they are going to find out soon enough, I
mean how long to you expect to keep something this big and obvious a
secret, especially from our friends? And why do you want to
keep it a secret so badly anyway?"
Brooke sighed, "Well,
its just so sudden, and unexpected. I know I am ecstatic, but what
about them?"
Lucas had stopped the car outside the cafe, nad
he looked out of the car window before taking Brooke's hand, "Listen
to me pretty girl. It does not matter what they think, ok? They will
just have to adjust, this is out life, not theirs. This is what we
both want, right?"
"Yes, it definitely is," Brooke
smiled a watery smile and kissed her husband before getting out of
the car. They were holding hands clasped tightly together as they
walked into the cafe.
Nathan and Haley
"Nate,
has your mom told you anything else about what is going on with that
kid?"
"No, but we are supposed ot go straight to the
cafe and we'll find out there. But its weird, because whatever we do,
we are not supposed to tell Brooke and Lucas anything about it,"
nate was confused about this since it was mostly about Karen and
Keith as far as he knew anyway.
"That's weird, but I guess we
will find out in a coule of minutes, because there is the cafe."
haley pointed ahead of her.
Jake and Peyton
"I
wonder if the others are back yet. They all said they were getting in
today," Peyton was talking to her husband as they did dishes
together after dinner.
"I dunno Peyt. You could give them a
call, just remember, we have our secrets, hun," Jake turned and
winked at his very pregnant wife.
At that moment
seventeen-year-old Jenny walked into the kitchen with five-year-old
Lizzie, "Hey mom, dad, I am going to put Lizzie to bed and then
can I talk to you?"
"Sure jen, we'll be in here,"
Peyt answered. She looked at jake with a soft smile, "I still,
after fifteen years, love hearing that girl call me mom. I wonder
what she wants."
Jake replied, "I dunno, but we're about
to find out, there she is," Jenny walked in and sat down ready
to talk to her parents.
