This song "I Don't Want to be" holds so many memories of the One Tree Hill show that touched all our lives. I was disappointed that the series finale did not feature Lucas or Peyton. I wish it did because I watched this show because of Lucas to begin with. It is okay though, I got to watch this show for nine years and I needed to write another fan fiction to celebrate the fact that it lasted this long and what it gave me. Please review, I would greatly appreciate it.

I don't need to be anything other
Than a prison guard's son
I don't need to be anything other
Than a specialist's son
I don't have to be anyone other
Than the birth of two souls in one
Part of where I'm going, is knowing where I'm coming from

Nathan, Haley, Brooke, Julian, Skills, Mouth, Millie, Chris, Chase, Clay, Quinn and their children were all in Karen's café. Jamie, Chuck and Logan were running and laughing. Skills, Mouth and Chase were tending to the drinks while Chris sampled some of the drinks.

[Chorus:]
I don't want to be
Anything other than what I've been trying to be lately
All I have to do
Is think of me and I have peace of mind
I'm tired of looking 'round rooms
Wondering what I've got to do
Or who I'm supposed to be
I don't want to be anything other than me

Brooke and Millie were playing with the twins and catching up. Haley and Quinn came over to join them. Haley started to trace her fingers on a book that meant the world to her. The girls sat and talked.

[Chorus:]
I don't want to be
Anything other than what I've been trying to be lately
All I have to do
Is think of me and I have peace of mind
I'm tired of looking 'round rooms
Wondering what I've got to do
Or who I'm supposed to be
I don't want to be anything other than me

Nathan, Clay and Julian were talking until the children, Jamie, Chuck and Logan, started playing with them.

I'm surrounded by liars everywhere I turn
I'm surrounded by imposters everywhere I turn
I'm surrounded by identity crisis everywhere I turn
Am I the only one who noticed?
I can't be the only one who's learned!

I don't want to be
Anything other than what I've been trying to be lately
All I have to do
Is think of me and I have peace of mind
I'm tired of looking 'round rooms
Wondering what I've got to do
Or who I'm supposed to be
I don't want to be anything other than me

"Dad…Chuck, Logan and I want to go outside. We want to play some ball. "Said Jamie

"Fine you can go but be very careful. You know what Clay and I will go too." Said Nathan who exchanged a look with Clay who nodded at him and then he looked at Julian and asked, "Hey Julian want to come with us?" asked Nathan

"Of course, thanks" said Julian and then he continued, "but let me check with Brooke to see if she needs help with the boys." Brooke heard the conversation from her seat she said "Honey, go. I have help; I can handle the Baker boys for a while"

Chase smiled heard the plan too and waved to the boys.

Jamie, Clay, Julian, Logan and Chuck were in the back gathering food. When they were finished gathering the food, all the men looked ready to go but one. Nathan looked at the clock and then called out, "I have to use the bathroom…I will be right back"

The other men and boys sat down and waited for Nathan. Meanwhile Chris tasted another drink. He was trying to swallow but he could not. He ran out the café and then spat out the drink.

Chase said, "Chris Keller always has to be dramatic"

Chris was outside when he noticed a little girl around Jamie's age dancing and singing outside.

Chris went toward the outside door of the café, opened it and yelled, "Yo mini-Keller you have to see this girl. She is mighty fine for someone your age"

Everyone in the café gave him a look. Chuck looked at Chase and said, "I don't want to be called mini-Keller anymore. Chase is my hero" Chuck exchanges a look with Chase and smiles. Then Chuck adds, "Plus I don't want a girl, ew"

Chase laughs at his best friend and says, "Seriously you are scoping out a girl that could be your child?"

Then another person who is outside talks to Chris.

Can I have everyone's attention please?
If you're not like this and that, you're gonna have to leave
I came from the mountain
The crust of creation
My whole situation-made from clay to stone
And now I'm telling everybody

"You know Chris you are lucky you helped save my little brother otherwise I WOULD punch you."

Chris turns around and looks surprised at the new comer. Haley, Quinn, Brooke, Chase, Mouth, and Skills all looked shocked when they hear the voice. Nathan emerges from the bathroom with a smirk.

Lucas's left hand is holding Lily and his right hand is holding Peyton's hand. They walk past Chris and into the café. Everyone is looking at them. Nathan walks up to Lucas and says, "Took you long enough to get here, big brother"

Lucas responds, "Well there is only One Tree Hill. We could only stay away for a short time"

The two brothers, who one can argue started it all, embraced.

I don't want to be
Anything other than what I've been trying to be lately
All I have to do
Is think of me and I have peace of mind
I'm tired of looking 'round rooms
Wondering what I've got to do
Or who I'm supposed to be
I don't want to be anything other than me
