Chapter 1
Brooke was getting diner ready for Tia when the phone rang.
"Hi" Brooke said as she answered.
"Hey Brooke" Haley said really missing her best friend.
"Hey Haley how are you, how's Jamie and Nathan" Brooke asked.
"They're fine Brooke when are you coming to Tree Hill to see us" Haley asked hopefully it's been to long since she'd seen them.
"I can't Haley I really want to I just can't" Brooke said.
"Brooke every time I ask you always say no, Brooke Jamie really wants to meet you, I miss you Brooke we all do you're my best friend in the whole world" Haley said hoping Brooke would change her mind.
"I miss you too, I really wish I could come" Brooke said wishing she could just go.
"Brooke my first live show is on Thursday I really want my best friend there" Haley pleaded.
"You're doing your music again" Brooke asked shocked.
"Yea, while Nathan's playing ball I decided to start music again" Haley said.
"I'm happy for you and tell Nate great game the other night" Brooke said.
"I will, please say you'll come" Haley asked again.
"I can't he'll be there" Brooke said. She couldn't see him coz if she did everything would change.
"Brooke if you mean Lucas yes he'll be there but you don't have to speak to him if you don't want to" Haley said.
"How is he" Brooke asked.
"He's alright, Brooke you do know he's not with Peyton and he hasn't been with her since the first time" Haley said knowing why Brooke left.
"Haley you don't have to lie I know about Luke and Peyton" Brooke said.
"Brooke she kissed him and that was 6 years ago he regrets that more than anything, Brooke but you just left" Haley said.
"Mommy" Tia said as she came in the room.
"Haley I gotta go" Brooke said as Tia came in the room.
"First tell me you'll come" Haley said.
"Ok yes I'll be there bye" Brooke said as she hung up.
"Mommy I missed you" Tia said as she ran into her arms.
"I missed you to princess how was school" Brooke asked.
"It was ok can we go get some ice cream mommy, nanny said I had to wait until after dinner" Tia asked hopefully.
"Nan's right, I made your favourite mac and cheese, you are too much like Haley" Brooke said remembering Haley's love for it.
"Mommy who's Haley" Tia asked.
"Somebody I used to know" Brooke said wishing she could tell Tia about her old life but that would mean talking about her father and she just couldn't.
"Hi sweetie I'm just gonna go and have a lie down" Nan said as she came in the kitchen.
"Nan can I talk to you a minute" Brooke said.
"Of course" Nan said.
"Nan, Haley wants me to go to Tree Hill and I sort of said I would" Brooke said as they went into the hall.
"At last Brooke I love having you and Tia here but you need to go home" Nan said.
"Nan I'm not going for good I'm just gonna say hello to everyone and come home" Brooke said.
"Ok sweetie when do you and Tia leave" Nan asked.
"That's the thing Nan can Tia stay here I'm not ready for everyone to know about her yet" Brooke asked hoping her Nan would.
"Brooke you're never gonna be ready, it's like your ashamed" Nan said disappointed she really wants Brooke to face her friends and family.
"Nan I love Tia more than anything in the world" Brooke said.
"I know that Brooke but why don't you let your friends now about her" Nan asked.
"Because of Lucas" Brooke said.
"Brooke he deserves to know he's a father and Tia deserves to know her dad" Nan said hoping Brooke would just tell him.
"I know that Nan I just can't what if he doesn't want her" Brooke said sadly.
"Brooke you have to take that chance I know you still love him that's why you haven't moved on" Nan said noticing every guy that came around she turned down.
"I know that Nan but he doesn't love me" Brooke said tears forming in her eyes.
"How do you know Brooke from what you told me Lucas was the one and I know he hurt you but you didn't even give him a chance you just ran" Nan said.
"I had too I couldn't see him with Peyton" Brooke said.
"Brooke if you have to go to Tree Hill go but you have to take Tia with you she's you daughter Brooke and you can't hide her forever" Nan said.
"Fine I'm not going then" Brooke said.
"Mommy, nanny the dinner's getting cold" Tia said as she came in the hall.
"We're coming sweetie" Brooke said.
"Tia how would you like to go on a little holiday with mommy so mommy can go and see some friends" Nan asked.
"Mommy has friends" Tia asked as the only friend that ever came to see them was Rachel and some of Brooke work friends.
"Nan" Brooke said annoyed why did she have to tell Tia.
"Will aunty Rachel be there" Tia asked.
"No sweetie she lives in New York" Brooke said.
"Ok who are we going to see" Tia asked.
"We might not be going now" Brooke said.
"Mommy please can we go I really wanna meet your friends I promise I'll be good" Tia said hopefully.
"I know you will princess" Brooke said not wanting to upset her daughter.
"Can we go mommy" Tia asked.
"Ok we can go" Brooke said what is everyone gonna say she thought.
After getting off the phone to Brooke, Haley went to make diner, while she was cooking Nathan and Lucas walked through the door.
"Hey babe did you talk to her" Nathan asked as he put his arms around Haley waist.
"Yeah she's coming" Haley said.
"Who, who's coming" Lucas asked hoping it was Brooke.
"Brooke I spoke to her earlier" Haley said.
"Really, she's really coming home" Lucas asked as every other time she didn't come.
"Yeah but I think it's just for the show" Haley said.
"Is, is she with anybody" Lucas asked hoping the answer was no.
"No I don't think so" Haley said.
"That's good" Lucas said trying to play it cool.
"Luke now's your chance don't blow it again, you need Brooke in your life" Nathan said.
"I know Nate but what if she doesn't let me in" Lucas said sadly.
"Then make her Luke you love her and I know she loves you" Nathan said.
