Okay here is the 411: Lucas did leave One Tree Hill for the summer, but never fear he is back in town and ready for a new start.
Haley and Nathan did get married and ended up sleeping together. However as they are both minors the parents, intervened and quickly got the marriage annulled.
Nathan moved back home to live with his mother.
Dan Scott, his father is living in an apartment across town.
Haley still lives at home and wrote to Lucas every week when he was away. Haley is still in love with Nathan but is starting to wonder if she ever got over Lucas.
Peyton and Brooke went away for a 2 week summer vacation to try and get their problems behind them and become best of buds again.
Kate is a new girl to the little group. She played basketball with Nathan when they were younger, and was a tomboy. She still plays basketball but dresses more like a girl from Clueless.
:: Tree Hill High School::
Students are walking around the hallways. The freshmen acting like little lost children, trying to find their way in the big bad world of high school. The sophomore's students acting a little more superior, as last year it was they who were on the receiving end of all the pranks. The junior students walking around school like the owned the place, having been there 2 years already and with another year to go it was now or never, a make or break for the popularity. The seniors had lived the life, of all three combined. Now it was time to sit back and relax and just watch the fun.
Haley stood at her locker, fixing her folders so that they were in a correct order in co-ordination with her schedule. She wasn't like some of the other girls in the school, she didn't give into peer pressure and start to dress in the low cut, showing too much skin short micro mini skirts and tops that if they were any lower that playboy might be interested in a full cover shot.
Nathan dressed in a pair of blue denim jeans and a black muscle bound t- shirt with 'Can you fcuk this?' written in the centre also had a bag across his shoulder which was carrying only a few books, ones he thought he might need for the day to get him by without any teachers pounding on his ass.
Kate walked up behind Nathan and started walking beside him. She was dressed in a pair of black knee high boots, a white skirt knee length skirt with a see through layer on the top a shoulder cut long sleeved black thin top. A small silver chain with a cross was over the top. Her long brown hair was swept back with a few strands falling loose at the front.
"So monkey boy, tell me. When's practise? I need to come and see what skills you've learnt since I've been out of the picture"
Nathan turned and looked at her with a smile on his face. Putting an arm around her neck, he joked. "Believe me when I say, I have the best skills in this entire school that could easily out do and out match anything you've got."
Playfully, Kate hit him in the chest as they continued to walk. "I won't believe you, I have to see things with my own eyes before I believe anything, which is why I refuse to believe that aliens exist..Oh what, I've seen you, I'm a believer"
As the two approached Haley, Nathan removed his arm from Kate's neck and walked up behind Haley wrapping his arms around her waist, kissing the side of her neck. "Good morning."
Haley turned around and smiled, leaning up and planting a small kiss on Nathan's lips. "Good morning to you too."
"Isn't it a bit earlier for public affection, I mean come on guys I've not long ago eaten my cereal, I don't really wanna be seeing it again." Kate joked. "Whoa, girl you sleep with a hanger in your mouth or do you always smile like that when butt ugly boy here kisses you good morning?"
Haley grabbing some books from her locker and placing them in her backpack, looking at Kate with a 'I can't help it' smile. "No, I do it with all my other boyfriend, Nathan just happens to be the first one who approaches me. I'm expecting the rest any moment soon." Haley zips up her backpack and places it on her shoulder.
Nathan still with his arms wrapped around Haley's waist looks at Kate with a smirk. "Well if I recall you always used to smile when I kissed you good morning."
"We were 14 and I had just had my brace removed, of course I'm gonna be constantly smiling. I needed to pull some attractive guys, but you kept blocking my view."
Haley and Kate laughed together as Lucas approached the three of them. Haley's face lights up when she sees him. Her smile seems to grow wider as she breaks free of Nathan's embrace and walks up to Lucas hugging him. "Oh my gosh, Luke" Haley takes in a deep breath, while Kate and Nathan look on at the little scene. "I missed you so much"
Lucas or Luke as he is sometimes referred to, has a different appearance. His blonde locks are slightly longer, giving him a slightly cleaner cut look rather than the rugged edged one he had before leaving Tree Hill. Dressed in a pair of blue denim jeans and a white t-shirt, he looks every bit the school Romeo he had been before, with the whole situation of Brooke and Peyton. "I missed you too."
Lucas pulls back and smiles at her. He turns his attentions to Nathan, his half brother whom he had never really gotten on well with before the end of the school year. And a new girl, an attractive brunette that was just looking him up and down, checking him out.
Haley looked from Lucas to Kate. "Oh I'm sorry, I lost all my manors in the heat of the moment. Luke this is Kate Jones, she moved to Tree Hill over the summer. She's an ex girlfriend, old best friend of Nathan's, she's also a little miss basketball know it all and play it all."
"Wow, I like half of that introduction." Kate smiled at Lucas. "So you're the other Scott brother, I bet you hate hearing that." Kate turns to Nathan who seems a little agitated that Luke is back in town. "By looking at you I would never have guessed there was a good looking guy in your family, til boy wonder showed up."
Kate joked and watched as Janelle, one of the popular senior guys bumped right into her like she was nothing. Janelle and her little posse stopped and stared at the girl who had 'gotten' in their way.
"Would you watch where you're going? I have $400 pair of shoes on, that don't need to be trampled on by you little K-mart wonder boots.." Some more attention was being paid to the little commotion. Brooke and Peyton had now walked over and joined the little posse, as if they were just checking it out, but they wanted to see who the new meat was.
"Sweetie, when your wearing a pair of $400 shoes into school you don't stop the rumours circulating that you're a hoe, you just tell them you're an expensive one. I mean seriously...when you see people like Janelle and her clique in the hallway; everyone is desperately wishing that they were walking with them. And thinking that maybe if they were wearing the right shoes, sporting the latest hairstyle, and using the hottest shade of lip- gloss, then maybe they would toss a glance in their direction. Ever wonder why they force their narrow-minded opinions down our throats? Perhaps it's because they have an inkling of what the future has in store for them beyond graduation. Cut to 25 years from now, Janelle will wake up one morning feeling empty. Maybe it's because her Dartmouth-educated lawyer husband Tad has run off to Tijuana with her daughter's roommate from boarding school. Or maybe it's because the twins, Timmy and Tommy, call her by her first name and their live-in housekeeper "Mom." Or maybe it's Janelle's daily 2:00, 5:00, 7:00, and 9:15 showdown with her bottle of Prozac. Her life has become a domestic wasteland. I mean why would anyone want to have this fate?. I certainly wont becoming another cookie-cutter blonde, size 4, rah-rah-sis-bam-boom, mindless, soulless, spineless wench."
Kate now went silent, as Haley led the crowd into a whopping big ho-ha. People had started clapping and the little miss popular girl's posse gasped as they played follow the leader and walked away.
"Wow, I'm impressed that there is someone else in this school is opening their mouth and expressing their opinions." Brooke walked over to Kate and smiled. "I'm Brooke and this is Peyton." Brooke indicated to Peyton who was standing slightly behind her.
Brooke and Peyton kept taking glances at Lucas, who was trying to avoid eye contact with both of them. "Peyton has dated both of the Scott boys, whilst I've only stuck to the Blondie. But seriously, if you need anyone to shop with, let me know cause I'm loving the outfit." Brooke turned around and walked away from the group, as Peyton stepped into the spot where she was standing. "Hey Peyton" Haley smiled at Peyton, they hadn't become extremely close over the summer but they had talked some.
Peyton had told Haley that she felt guilty over the way she left with things with a lot of people and that she couldn't wait til the new school year came around because she was gonna start a fresh, just like Lucas only this time she would start experimenting with dating, dating guys she wouldn't usually date.
"Hey.." Peyton looked at Kate. "For future reference, don't be offended by Brooke's constant honest approach, her foot does live inside her mouth most days of the year."
The bell rang which indicated it was time for class. Haley looked down at her schedule. "Oo, got to go. Don't wanna be late on my first day of further maths" Haley leaned up and kissed Nathan on the lips.
"Okay, well I'll be practising Basketball most of the day, I think now that Whitey is back on form, he's gonna push us to the limits, so I'll catch ya later." Nathan walked off with Peyton to first period of Math, while Lucas turned around and walked to his locker.
Kate followed Lucas to his locker. "Don't worry, I'm not playing female stalker of the boy wonder, I just noticed that you have English first period and so do I...and as I don't know exactly where to go, I thought.."
"That you might play female stalker.." Lucas turned and smiled at Kate as he opened up his locker.
"Exactly" She smiled back, blushing slightly.
Lucas shut his locker grabbing a couple of books. "How about I make you a deal..If I play the tour guide and show you around the school, that you have to show me some of your basketball skills."
"Oh, I'm really not that good..I'm great" She joked
"So it's a deal?"
"It's a deal."
The two of them turned around and walked off in direction of the English classrooms.
:: The Gymnasium::
On the court, Lucas and Nathan are playing basketball joined by their fellow team mates and to the side is the girl cheerleading squad, practising their cheers for tomorrow night's, first game of the season.
Nathan and Lucas, shooting 3 pointers taking it in turns. Not acting as brothers, or even close friend but they have become team-mates which they both look at as a beginning.
Lucas: "So you and .. Kate are.."
Nathan looks at Lucas: "Just friends." He stops dribbling the ball and walks over to him. "Why you got a thing for her?"
Lucas: "Nah, I'm not saying that. I'm just curious"
Nathan: "Well curiosity killed the cat"
Whitey walks over to the two boys, looking better than he did last season a little more healthier.
Whitey: "Boys hit the locker room, but remember tomorrow none of this crap we had last year. This is a new year, there's a new team, so there's gonna be a new attitude where we play as.."
Nathan and Lucas speak together: "Team-mates"
Whitey: "Good that's what I like to hear. Now get going."
Nathan and Lucas turn around and start making their way for the locker room.
:: Outside the Gymnasium ::
Kate and Haley are sitting on a bench.
"So your interested in Luke?" Haley smiles looking up at Kate, finishing off her ice-cream. "I mean if you were it wouldn't be that much of a big deal."
"Yeh it would, I mean... he's Nathan's brother and your best friend, besides I get the feeling that Brooke and Peyton aren't over him yet and I don't wanna get into a cat fight on my first day at a new school." Kate pauses, and smirks remembering earlier on in the day when she let loose on a girl who had bumped into her. "Well a cat fight with potential friends."
"Peyton is over Lucas, I mean sure she might still find him attractive, but he is an attractive guy." Haley looks at Kate and smiles. "What, I'm allowed to say that he's my best friend." She jokes. "Besides, I don't think you'd be getting into any cat fights, Brooke has made it clear as you saw earlier that she has absolutely no interest in him anymore."
"I dunno, I mean we talked earlier and seemed to really hit it off. There was a spark, I dunno maybe it's because he's a tortured athlete or something I mean it's generally what I go for in a guy." Kate turns to the side and looks at the gymnasium, as some guys start to exit the building. "Like Nathan?"
Kate turns back and looks at Haley. "Nathan, no not anymore. I was attracted to his ass" She paused, and smirks. "His assy side, you know sarcastic always trying to be a smart ass..but he's not like that no more and he's changed, I've changed."
"I wasn't saying if you wanted him back or anything, I was just curious."
"Well you know what they said about curiosity, it killed the cat" The both smirk.
::On the play ground::
"You really don't have to do this." Lucas watches Kate as she steps onto the court. "I mean your dressed in.."
"A stunning ensemble that could get ruined when I play, yeh I know." Kate smirked sitting down, pulling off her knee high boots and throwing them to one side. "Beside you said you wanted me to show you my skills, and what better way to do that than to show you that I can kick your ass on the court" Kate smirks standing up, picking the ball up and dribbling it over to him.
Lucas smirks. "Okay, but I'm not gonna go easy on you.."
"Please don't"
The two play a game of one on one. A pattern emerges first Lucas scores then Kate. It's 14-14, with the next basket to take the game. Lucas taking possession, dribbles the ball over to the 3 pointer line, with Kate in pursuit.
"I said I wouldn't take it easy on you.."
"So did I-"
Lucas takes the ball in his hand and before he has time to lift his arms to make the shot, Kate has moved right in front of him. He looks down at her, into her eyes. He raises his arms and shoots the ball without looking. Kate leans up and kisses him, with his arms coming down from the shot and pulling her up against him. The ball goes in the net as the two passionately kiss.
Next On: ONE TREE HILL:
Kate grabbing Lucas's hand and pulling him into an empty classroom, pushing herself back against the wall, as they kiss.
"We can't keep doing this" Lucas breaks apart from the kiss.
"Doing what?"
"Hiding, in secret. I don't care if people see us, I'm not ashamed."
"Neither am I.."
Nathan talking to Kate: "Do you like him?"
Kate: "I think I do.."
Nathan looking slightly jealous.
Haley: "Nathan why are you so jealous?"
Nathan: "I'm not jealous"
Haley: "Do you like her more than a friend?"
Nathan: "God Haley, don't be so paranoid"
Haley: "A yes or a no?"
Nathan: "It's hard to explain.."
Haley: "Well don't explain then" Haley turns to walk out of the door.
Nathan: "She was the first girl I ever loved...and the first girl I ever had sex with."
Haley turning around looking at him, a little hurt.
Nathan: "Haley, I love you."
Haley: "Then why didn't you tell me.."
Haley and Nathan did get married and ended up sleeping together. However as they are both minors the parents, intervened and quickly got the marriage annulled.
Nathan moved back home to live with his mother.
Dan Scott, his father is living in an apartment across town.
Haley still lives at home and wrote to Lucas every week when he was away. Haley is still in love with Nathan but is starting to wonder if she ever got over Lucas.
