The Next Stage
Sequel to Family
Okay, lets start with a couple author's notes. I have not been updating any of my stories for a while because on May 30, 2009 my only Grandma that I have left passed away and since then I have been working through a lot of emotions and being with my parents and extended family members so now that the funeral is over I will begin working on updating my stories slowly. I hope by the end of the summer that I will have them all updated and to be adding more to them more consistently than I have been.
That was the first note. The second note has more to do with this story. I know that in Season 6 of the show Brooke has Sam living with her as a foster child but this story is a take off of Season 5. Sam will not as of right now be in the story. However, she may be introduced later on.
The third note that I have to mention is that I have been so honored by all the replies that I received while writing my story Family which this story is now a sequel to because so many of you loyal readers requested that I make a sequel to it so here it is my first attempt at a sequel to any story.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chapter One
We'll begin with Alyssa's birth.
It has been nine months since Nathan and Haley were told that they were going to be parents again. This time with a little girl. Whom they soon named Alyssa Faith Scott.
Alyssa will be joining the family with an older brother, James "Jamie" Lucas Scott.
Nathan and Haley are at the hospital maternity wing waiting for their little girl to arrive. Jamie is in the waiting room with Deb, Lucas, Peyton, Brooke, Chase, Lydia, and Jimmy.
*I'm bringing Karen, Lily, and Andy back into the story mainly because I miss writing about her. We should let the show know that we want to see Karen, Lily, and Andy back. Lucas needs his mom and sister around more.*
Karen, Andy, and Lily are also there
Lucas is sitting on the couch with Peyton when he hears Jamie ask, "What is taking so long? I want to see my little sister."
Deb pats him on the head, "Maybe she's not ready yet. You'll be a big brother soon."
They see Karen, Andy, and Lily walking towards them.
Lily lets go of Karen's hand when she sees Lucas.
"Lucas!!!!!!!!!!" Lily calls.
Lucas stands up and faces her and bends down and opens his arms.
Lily runs into his arms as he picks her up and hugs her.
"I missed you little sister!" Lucas says as he kisses her head and looks up as Karen walks over to them.
She has missed this, the sight of her two kids together. She knows that this is worth the decision to buy a new house with Andy, So she will be with her son and her daughter. (I did this because Karen gave the house to Lucas that he grew up in)
Karen hugs Lucas who is still holding Lily.
"Any news on the baby?" Karen asks.
Brooke shakes her head, "Nothing yet."
Jamie gets up and walks to Chase.
"Uncle Chase, can you walk with me to the bathroom?" Jamie asks.
"Sure, lets go" Chase says as he stands up and leads Jamie down the hallway.
Back in Haley's room.
"Come on Sweetie you can do this. Push!" Nathan says
"I can't its too hard." She cries out.
"Yes you can! You did it once before with Jamie and you are more than strong enough to do this. Come on baby, pretty soon we will have our little girl." Nathan says to encourage her.
"Come on Haley the head and shoulders are out, all you have to do is give one last big push and you'll have your little girl to hold." The doctor says.
Nathan sits on the stool next to the bed and grabs Haley's hand and starts to count with her as she squeezes his hand.
A minute later the doctor pulls the baby out and they are rewarded with the sound of a cry from the baby.
The doctor holds the baby up to show Nathan and Haley after cutting the cord.
"It seems that you have a healthy baby girl with all ten fingers and ten toes. Mary, here is going to take little Alyssa and get her all cleaned up while I'm getting you all cleaned up." The doctor tells them.
Haley wipes a couple happy tears away from her eyes as she smiles at her newborn daughter and waves as the her nurse Mary takes Alyssa over to the side of the room to get her all cleaned up.
"She is so beautiful isn't she Nathan?" Haley says to Nathan.
"Yes she is almost as gorgeous as her mother." Nathan says still holding Haley's hand in his.
"Aww you are quite the sweet talker." Haley says
Nathan leans down and kisses her quickly.
"After they get you all cleaned up and moved back to your room I'll go tell everyone that they can come back and see you and Alyssa." Nathan tells Haley.
Haley nods and agrees with his plan.
The nurse has finished cleaning up Alyssa and the doctor has finished with Haley. Mary walks back over to Nathan and Haley holding Alyssa who is wrapped in a light yellow blanket and has a pink hat on. The nurse has also attached an Id bracelet with Alyssa's full name and the name of her parents around her little arm.
Mary gently hands Alyssa over to Haley.
"I'll leave you two alone for a few minutes while I get her name written on the birth certificate and then I'll be back to take you three back to your own room." Mary says.
"Thank you." Nathan says.
"Your very welcome." Mary says as she goes out the door and passes the family in the waiting room.
"Both baby and mom are doing great. It will be a couple more minutes before you can go see them. Nathan will come and get you after Haley has been moved back to her room." Mary tells them
They all cheer. Jamie runs over to his grandparents and jumps onto Jimmy's lap.
"I have a little sister Grandpa!" He says excitedly.
Jimmy laughs and says, "I know, I'm a grandpa again."
About ten minutes later Nathan walks into the waiting room to have all eyes land on him.
"Daddy!!" Jamie yells and runs to where Nathan is standing.
Nathan laughs and picks Jamie up and rests him on his hip.
"Well, Jamie are you ready to meet your little sister?" He asks.
Jamie nods his head.
"Okay then if you all want to fallow me to the room and you can all meet the newest addition to the family." Nathan says as he starts walking with Jamie down the hallway toward Haley's room.
They finally reach the end of the hallway where Haley's room is and Nathan knocks on the door lightly before opening it.
"Hey, I found some people who want to see you outside in the hallway." Nathan says as he walks into the room still holding Jamie in his arms.
"Hey guys I want you all to meet Alyssa Faith Scott." Haley says as Nathan reaches her bed with Jamie and sets Jamie down on the bed next to her.
"Hi Mamma, she is pretty." Jamie says.
"Hi baby, she is pretty darn cute just like her big brother." Haley says and puts her free arm around Jamie and pulls him closer kissing the top of his head.
Jamie smiles at the little baby in his mother's arms before looking up at Haley to ask, "Can I kiss her?"
"Sure, just be gentle." Haley tells him.
"Okay," was Jamie's response.
He leans over towards the little baby and softly kisses her on the forehead. "Hi Alyssa, I'm your big brother James and I love you and I can't wait to play with you when your older."
There is a collected "awww" from everyone in the room as they witness the cuteness of a big brother meeting his little sister.
Jamie sits back down and reaches his hand out to touch Alyssa's much smaller one. When he does Alyssa grabs onto his finger tightly.
Lydia can't help herself and takes a picture of the young family.
"I'm so happy for you Haley. She is so pretty." Lydia says.
"Thank you mom." Haley says.
"She looks so much like you Haley except she has Nathan's nose." Deb says.
"The poor kid may need to have a nose job later in life." Lucas says.
"Very funny Luke." Nathan says.
Everyone laughs. Soon everyone has held Alyssa. Mary(the nurse) comes back into the room.
"I'm sorry but visiting hours are over, I can only let the immediate family stay in the room with Haley. That means the rest of you have to leave." Mary says.
Everyone says their goodbyes and leaves Nathan, Haley, Jamie, and Alyssa alone.
