Hey my first One Tree Hill fanfic hope you all like it please read and review.

I don't own One Tree Hill or any of the characters, not from lack of wishing!

Set after Haley's and Nate's wedding when Nate jumps into the river after the others.

"NATHAN!" screams Haley at the top of her voice staring down from the bridge praying to see him surface "HELP, PLEASE HELP, NATHAN!"

Suddenly a man came running up to her and straight away jumps in after Nate, his uncle and Rachel. He hits the surface and dives straight away with determination. It felt like an eternity, for Haley before a figure broke the surface of the water.

"NATHAN" yelled Haley which made the figure look up. She sighed with relief that it was him meaning he was ok, but before she could call back to him he had dived again. Somewhere behind her a car screeched to a halt and two people came rushing towards her.

"Haley what's happened?" Lucas asked looking frantically down into the river.

"The limo, the one Rachel and his uncle took, it went over into the river, I thin... I think they were trapped so he jumped Nate jumped then another guy went after them... Where is he?" Haley sobbed while Karen tried to comfort her.

"He'll be alright!" Lucas reassured her still looking down.

"How do you know he could be ... how do you know!" cried Haley

"Because I can see him he's trying to take someone to shore!" Lucas yelled over his shoulder as he ran for the edge of the bridge to make his way down the bank to help. Karen and Haley looked over the bridge and saw, as Luke had said Nathan swimming to the bank and began racing after Lucas.

5 minutes later Lucas, Karen and Haley were half helping half dragging the two soaking figures out of the river.

"How ... How is she?" Nathan asked indicating to Rachel who he had saved.

"Unconscious but she'll live!" Lucas replied

"Where... Where are the other two?" asked Haley, this caused Nathan to panic looking around, frantically searching for something like it was going to disappear

"They must be still down there, I have to go back, I have to go get them!" screamed Nathan about to jump back into the water.

"Wait" yelled Lucas holding him back "there over there" pointing to two figures that had just emerged from the river. The man started to swim towards the bank when Cooper began to wake up and splashing around trying to break free. He continued to struggle as the bloke tried helping him to shore and eventually ended up breaking free by kicking the mystery guy away and hitting him in the face in his blind panic. Cooper began swimming madly for the shore and managed to reach it and hurl himself out. Everyone apart from Nathan ran up to him to check he was OK.

After they reassured he was alright they went back to check on Rachel, and saw Nathan standing staring out.

"Where is he?" Nathan asked more to himself

"Nathan who was he?" Lucas asked studying his brother

Suddenly Nathan took off down the bank, a couple of minutes later Nathan was pulling a tired figure out of the water. Nathan was blocking the man from view of the rest so they were unable to identify him, but as soon as the other man had caught his breath and straightened up Nathan began hugging him as if to make sure he would stay.

This confused the rest, who began slowly walking up to them, Haley was first to reach and screamed at who she saw which caused the rest to speed up. As they reached them Nathan released the man and as they caught sight of him stood still as if they'd been petrified.

"What's the matter you looked like you've seen a ghost?" asked the drenched man staring round at them in confusion.

"Ke... Keith?" mumbled Lucas nearly in tears.
