One Tree Hill

Chapter 1: A Tearful Reunion

In Tree Hill Haley hears rumors about Jacob's homecoming and does not believe them as she thinks her best friend is never coming back.

Haley: Karen do you hear this? People think Jacob is coming home. How crazy is that?

Karen: Now Haley just calm down. I know you miss Jacob I do to but do you think Jacob would really do that to you? I seem to recall you two being best friends just like you and Lucas.

Lucas: Come on Hales you know Jacob better then anyone else. Well you and Brooke do.

Haley: I just wish the rumors would stop he is never coming home. He is married to that bitch Chelsea and he is playing football he cannot come back home.

Eventually Jacob rolled into town in his 1972 Chevy Nova and stops by the cafe to surprise Haley, Lucas and Karen. He enters the cafe and just shocks everyone.

Jacob: Well, well, well. Haley James.

Haley: Did I just hear? Jacob. You're home. I've missed you so much.

Jacob: I've missed you too Haley bug. I have something to tell you, Lucas and Karen.

Haley: What is it Jacob? You can tell me anything.

Jacob: You might want to sit down.

As Jacob and everyone sits down Jacob tells Haley, Lucas, and Karen about his divorce and retirment from the NFL.

Jacob: Me and Chelsea got a divorce.

Lucas: What happened?

Jacob: She cheated on me. My own wife or ex-wife in this case cheated on me. Our marriage went south anyway so I could care less about her. She was bossy and banned me from talking to Quinn.

Haley: Chelsea had no right to do that to you Jacob. You've been in love with Quinn since you met her and I know deep down you still like my sister.

Karen: Why did your marriage go south?

Jacob: We fought constantly. Even worse in our last fight she called Haley, Taylor and Quinn mean things and I just wanted to beat her ass so badly but it against the law to do it so I just left the house in anger and when I came back that night she had cheated on me with another man. I've never hated somebody that much in my life. Nobody.

Haley: I am so sorry Jacob. Chelsea never deserved you in the first place. You and Quinn belong together. Also no one took your old job here so maybe you can start working with me again.

Jacob: As long its okay with Karen here.

Karen: I would love to have you as an employee again Jacob. Cafe has not been the same since you left.

That same morning Jacob took Haley and Lucas to school in his car and was offered a part-time job as assistant coach to Whitey Durham.

Principal Turner: Its been a long time Mr. Davis. How have you been?

Jacob: I have been good just got divorced.

Principal Turner: Let me guess Chelsea cheated on you? Haley told me the whole story.

Jacob: Yeah even worse I really hurt Quinn. I am such a jerk.

Principal Turner: I am sure Ms. James knows you did not mean to hurt her. I am also posititve that she still cares about you.

Jacob: Yeah I hope she does. Thanks for the help Mr. Turner. Have you seen my sister Brooke anywhere? I've came to surprise her.

Principal Turner: Your sister should be in the gym with the other girls.

Jacob: Okay. I will be on my way to see her so you can back to punishing bad students.

As Jacob walks into the gym he sees Nathan for the first time since he left but tries to avoid his sister until he can manage to surprise her.

Nathan: Jacob? Hey man. Long time no see.

Jacob: Yeah its been a long time. I have to remain unnoticed by Brooke so I have to hurry up.

Nathan: Brooke should be over there with Peyton and the others.

Jacob: Alright. It was nice catching up with you Nathan but I have attend to my sister and Peyton.

Brooke: Alright ladies lets get started. The first game is coming up so we have to practice hard.

Peyton: Brooke we've practiced hard all week. Its time to let up.

Brooke: Maybe you can sit out then Peyton.

Peyton: If Jacob was hear he would tell you the same thing.

Brooke: Well my big brother is not here now is he?

Jacob: Actually he is Brooke Penelope Davis.

Brooke: Wait that voice? Jacob Alexander Davis. You came home. I've missed you so much big brother.

Jacob: I've missed you my baby sister.

Brooke: Where your ring? Did Chelsea do something?

Jacob: Chelsea cheated on me Brooke.

Brooke: Oh bubby I am so sorry. She never deserved you anyway.

Jacob: Funny. Haley said that too at the cafe.

Peyton: Hey where is my hug?

Jacob: Come over here then.

Peyton: Welcome home Jacob.

Jacob: Its great to be home Peyton. I've missed you, Brooke and Haley the most.

Peyton: I've missed you too buddy.

Jacob: I better get home and everything.

Peyton: See ya sometime tomorrow new assistant coach.

Jacob: See ya tomorrow Peyton.

At home Jacob prepares for bed when he heard a loud noise in the house and it was Brooke.

Brooke: Don't worry big brother. Its just me you baby sister.

Jacob: Brooke you scared me half to death silly.

Brooke: Are you coming to the game this Friday?

Jacob: Of course I am the assistant coach.

Brooke: Oh I forgot. I am sorry.

Jacob: Its okay Brooke I forget stuff too sometimes. We better rest.

Brooke: Yeah we better. I love you big brother.
