OMG! I already have nine reviews and haven't even started yet well here is the first chapter i would like to first off say thank you and i will try to give everyone what they want to see. I also want to say nothing belongs to me only the story line again it's all Mark!

I am still really confused about Sawyer's age because Jamie turned six before she was born then in season seven they skipped a year or a year and a half then another year went by before Haley even got pregnant with Lydia so i am counting three years someone tell me if i am wrong.

This chapter is basically like an openeer for all the characters i did do some of it through there parents and there are a few suprises so don't hate at the end! LOL.

(AMI) Don't worry this is not just Lydia based this is everyone! I want them all to have storylines i want everyone to be apart and i am making them all as diff from their parents as possible!

(Lift-me-up) I didn't put Chase in the airforce but i did give you a bit what you ask for well somewhat but i had already started on previous chapters so don't be mad.

(Anon) again no worries they won't be exactly like their parents trust me then there would be no point i might as well just re-write one tree hill they will be diff and be their own person. I think Jamie was almost nine whenever she was born it is all so confusing LOL.

(XBestrongXBeBraveXLoveLifeX) There will be some parent storylines no troubles as for couples i can't give anything away or you won't come back lol But as for Mia and Chase yeah i loved them! I love Jana Kramer but Alex and Chase just didn't fit well with me to me she isn't the type to change not a real Tree Hill girl!

As for the Brooke moment in here that was taken from my real life whenever i adopted my daughter and i hope you enjoy!


Tree Hill is just a place somewhere in the world. Maybe it's a lot like your world. Maybe it's nothing like it. But, if you look closely you might see someone like you.

Jamie Scott heard the faint yet familiar noise and looked through the window of Karen's café to see a young child bouncing a basketball down the street as he once did, for so long Jamie's life revolved around that very ball until it was taken away from him. Only four months ago Jamie had the world by his fingertips, he was playing his third year in the NBA at the age of twenty three when all of it was taken away from him before he had the chance to blink.

With each dribble of the ball he could still hear the echoes from the crowds he played in front of every night some cheering for him and some cheering against him, the smell of each newly waxed gym, what it was like to be on the road every night awaiting his next destination he would never get that feeling again instead Jamie was forced to sit on the sidelines a place he was not familiar with at all. Ninety two days ago Jamie never even thought to consider that he would be back in Tree Hill sharing a house with his cousin Logan Evans and longtime friend Chuck Scolnik while working for his mother at Karen's café.

Three seconds. That's all it took for his life to completely change.

Lily Scott walked the halls of Tree Hill high for the first time in her life she had been homeschooled from the start of Kindergarten and never thought that was a good thing until now. Lily had only been in the school building for five minutes and found herself standing on the very spot her father was murdered. After Dan's death many learned to forgive him because of all the good he had done since then her mother even shed a few tears after hearing that he had died. But never Lily, in fact she didn't pity him at all.

No matter what good he had done in his life it never justified him for the murderer of his brother, Lily could never imagine pointing a gun at Lucas and watching the life drain from his eyes, he seemed to be the only other person that didn't really care that he was dead. Lily had been raised without a father sure she had Andy and she Lucas to turn to growing up but it wasn't fair that she never got the chance to meet her father up until recently she had avoided even coming to Tree Hill but her mother had insisted that she move home to be with her family.

"Miss. Scott" Lily heard a voice and turned around to see Principal Jakes walking near her. "Welcome to Tree Hill let me show you too your classroom. Is this your first time teaching"?

Jenny Jagielski drove through her birthplace where she had once lived long ago, it was a beautiful place and she would be happy to call the place home again. Four days prior something had hit Jenny when she met up with a high school friend who had just graduated from Law school. Jenny was twenty five and had just been fired from her teller job at the bank, no college degree, and still living with her father after she had been evicted from her apartment for not making rent that month that didn't exactly say she was ready for the responsibilities of life.

Jenny remembered a place her father had told her about, a place that he had called his home. Her mother never agreed but then again Jenny didn't care about what Nicki had to say all her life Jenny wanted as far away from her mother is possible. All of Jenny's life had just been one battle after another with her parents and once she was thirteen she was able to testify for herself and chose to live with her father who she adored. Nicki then vanished until Jenny was sixteen but it didn't matter she didn't want to see her mother anyways.

But, for the very first time in her life Jenny was on her own away from her mother and all the Nicki bitching that came with her. Jake was a great father to Jenny but he always told her what he thought she should do he never trusted her to make her own decisions but she never gave him a reason to either. Every time she got a job or was on her way to being successful she somehow screwed it up for herself but not this time, this time she was going to make it somehow and without the help of her father or anyone, Jenny was going to make it one her own and she was sure of it.

Someone trying to find their self.

Sawyer Brooke Scott walked through the town she had called home since her father moved her family back whenever she was ten years old and since then she couldn't imagine being anywhere else in the world. Sawyer had recently graduated from Tree Hill but unlike everyone else she didn't have a dream to follow, she didn't know where she wanted to go or what she wanted to become.

Sawyer was just like her parents on the outside but at the same time she was really nothing like them despite what everyone thinks, the only thing that they had in common was music and basketball but not like she had a choice. Growing up her father would play basketball with her and her brothers outside as her mother blasted the Cure drawing on the porch other than that Sawyer didn't know who she was. She only knew what her parents had showed her throughout her life.

After graduating from Tree Hill Sawyer decided she wasn't going to college right away denying many basketball, art, and literature scholarships she had been offered anywhere she wanted to go. But how could she go somewhere and be educated for something that she didn't want to do? She loved her parents and loved their jobs but perhaps it wasn't for her. Sawyer got a job at Tric as the manager from Chase and Mia who now own it and was living in a cramped apartment with her Aunt Lily. She had to find out who she truly was not who she had been made out to be.

Sometimes it's easy to feel like you're the only one in the world who is struggling, who's frustrated, or unsatisfied.

Fourteen years ago Mia Adams was at the top of the music charts every week and singing to sold out arena's every night her life was all that she wanted it to be. Now people would probably classify her as a has been she hasn't made an album since her daughter was five years old. Slutty wedding sex at Millie and Mouth's wedding turned into a daughter nine months later for Mia and Chase. They married three years after that and Mia had their first son Cadell Adams very recently his three years old to be exact and Mia loves both her children very much but sometimes she misses the life she could have had.

"Breakfast is ready why don't you go get your sister up" Mia told her youngest child.

"OK mama" he said smiling and ran up the stairs to fetch his sister "Catalano"!

Catalano was nothing like either of her parents she did of course look like her father head to toe but she was particularly very smart and shy which was very shocking in the Adam's household. Chase certainly wasn't shy he always had to put his opinion in even whenever his wife didn't want him to and Mia herself had no problem singing in front of millions.

"Sheriff Adams look at you all sexy" Mia said as her husband walked in and poured a cup of coffee for himself.

"What are you doing today" Chase ask his wife smiling at her remark.

"I have to go into the studio a friend of mine recommended a band and they are auditioning for Peyton and me today". Mia told him "speaking of I am late do you mind taking Catalano to school I'm taking Cadell with me today."

"No, it's right on my way into the station".

Mia may have some regrets about what she didn't get out of her life but she felt blessed with what she did have. After her last tour Mia knew she didn't want to give up on music and working at red bedroom records seemed to be the perfect fit for her to have the best of both worlds and it also allowed Chase time to attend the Police academy. He knew he couldn't be in the air force or any other military branch after having spent time in jail and when he found out he could still be a police officer it seemed to be the perfect fit for him but of course not for his daughter.

Catalano hated that her father had just became sheriff no boy would ever ask her out but of course she didn't give them the chance either. In fact she worried her parents she had no friends and she was always alone except with Jimmie McFadden and Chris Keller only because they were around the same and were raised around each other. She rarely spoke to her parents even they had tried therapy and just about everything but they never truly knew why she was the way she was. It didn't stop her parents from loving her as every parent should love their child it only made them worry more.

But, that feeling is a lie.

"Jude, Breyton, Davis come on or you're going to be late for school" Brooke Davis-Baker yelled up the stairs at her children.

The first child down was her oldest Breyton book bag thrown over her shoulder wearing the latest style that young teenagers wear a regular Brooke when it came to clothes but unfortunately for she seemed to have a closer bond with Peyton than with her mother. Brooke assumed that they bonded more because they were both adopted, when Brooke and Julian decided they wanted more children after the boys first birthday Brooke didn't want to go through trying to get pregnant again it was too much pain for her the first time and she was lucky she even got to carry the boys and that's when they settled on adoption but not the way they went the first time that was too much pain to. It was understandable the girl decided last minuet she wanted her child so they started looking at foster homes and the second Brooke the two year old ran into her arms she knew that she was hers. That's where she belonged.

"What's her name"? Brooke ask the woman as she picked the beautiful brown haired girl up.

"She doesn't have one, she was dropped off here two years ago no name nothing she isn't even in the states data base" the woman replied.

"Breyton… her name is Breyton. Brooke and Peyton put together. What do you think Julian of your daughter"?

"I think she is beautiful". Her husband replied.

The whole time as the couple filled out paper work Brooke held on to her daughter Breyton Hayley Baker. She was so beautiful it made Brooke want to cry and now her sons would have a big sister, Brooke had the fairytale life after all.

Brooke still had that fairytale life sure having three teenagers is hard and she had been married for sixteen years but it was worth it. Davis came down the stairs in with his hair slicked back a neatly ironed sweater vest that was tucked perfectly into his jeans. Brooke's only though was where did I go wrong? She owned a fashion company and her son was Mouth in high school but unfortunately he was worse than Mouth.

"Where is Jude at"? she ask Davis.

"He wasn't in his room" Davis replied.

Of course he wasn't. Brooke wanted to kick herself for her high school behavior because it came back to haunt her with Jude he didn't remind anyone of a Baker or even a Davis for that matter he acted like a Scott. His whole life was built around basketball and girls, Julian had already found condoms in his room. Of course he lied and said he just wanted to know what it was but Brooke didn't buy that not for a minute, Julian however would believe anything his children told him.

"His probably at the river court come on" Brooke said rushing her kids out to her SUV "I hope".

Sure enough she found her son bouncing a ball around on the court L.J, Brooke laid on the horn as she pulled indicating that they were in a hurry. She watched Jude pull his jeans over top of his basketball short and put a messy and more than likely a dirty shirt he got out of his hamper on. Jude and L.J quickly got in the back seat.

"Don't leave again without my permission" Brooke snapped at her son.

"Jeeze don't blow a fume Victoria" Jude said sitting back.

"I better call your mom does she know where you are at" Brooke ask L.J.

"Yeah" L.J replied to his god-mother.

And if you just hold on just find the courage to face it all another day.

Nathan Taylor walked into Tree Hill high school gym to see his father coaching, well technically skills is his step father but he hasn't seen or spoke to Tim since he was six years old and when he was eight Skills adopted him. But, it was for the better really even when Skills and Bevin would fight Skills would still come up and tuck him into bed every night not like his biological father. Tim would leave every night so Nathan was thankful for Skills.

"Hey Nate" Skills said looking at a clipboard "what's going on"?

"What I need an excuse to come hang out with my ol' man"?

"No but you're up at seven thirty so something smells fishy" Skills said looking at his son.

Nathan laughed he had recently moved back to Tree Hill after graduating from Stanford university a degree in psychology. Everyone he knew found it odd considering neither of his parents were the brightest bulb in the tanning bed but he always had a thing for helping people but he couldn't stand blood. Of course basketball was considered as any other kid in Tree Hill but he was in a car accident with Bevin when he was sixteen nothing to bad but enough to injure his knee pretty badly.

"I'm just having a hard time and I need someone to talk to" Nathan admitted to his father.

"I thought you were the therapist" Skills said,

"I am and that's the problem I can't find a job and I can't stand not working I mean with all the nanny Carrie's and Dan Scott's in Tree Hill you'd think they would need therapist I think personally we should have our very own physic ward".

Ever since Nathan moved back he had been searching for a job everywhere he could think of, he even went as far to put an application in at a donut factory but still yet nothing. For months now he had been really down about not having a job after working so hard in school to earn a degree but couldn't seem to find a job he considered looking out of Tree Hill but there is no place like home. He couldn't stand being away but he really hated that he was away from his family so much.

"Jobs aren't easy to find Nate it just takes patience Ok? In the mean time you can help Luke and me coach how about that? You can get out of bed every day until you find a job".

"I guess that is better than nothing".

"You seem very enthusiastic".

Someone or something will find the way and make it all ok.

Chris Keller was many things he was a singer, songwriter, producer, husband, and he was foolish, immature, witty, and somewhat childish but to his son he was the greatest father ever. Alex and Chris married because she got pregnant and of course neither one of them was ready sometimes they still aren't ready but Chris like Mia gave up his career. Alex wouldn't hear of it she is gone ninety percent of the year but Chris has made every little play, spelling bee, his first steps, his first words, everything. Chris his son quit expecting his mother to show up when he was five.

No one had faith in Chris to step up and be a father and husband whenever Alex's pregnancy surfaced but he proved everyone wrong he had been a faithful husband even when he knew his wife had a new boyfriend every week he turned his head because he wanted his son to have a family. He loves his son and has done all that he can just by producing albums at red bedroom records.

Everyone assumed that Little Chris would come out like big Chris cocky and not really all that bright but they were wrong. He is the most caring person anyone could meet sure he loves music but he loves to help people and give which was weird for a Keller all while he watched his father hurt. He would never admit to his son or even the public but he loved Alex and wished that she would feel the same way about him or at least his son. He wished that Alex would love their son and care about him but she never showed any interest in anything that her child would do or care about.

Because we all need a little help sometimes.

"Are you excited about your first day of high school" Haley ask Lydia as she drove away from the middle school where she just dropped her son Danny off at. "I remember my first day I made your uncle-".

"Yes mom I know you made uncle Lucas pretend to be your boyfriend ok? Now can you just drive the last ten minutes of hell in silence"? Lydia said folding her arms sitting back in her seat.

Haley didn't know what to say to her only daughter, all her kids had been shocked since Haley and Nathan told them that they were divorcing. Out of all her kids Lydia took it the worst for days she locked herself in her room refusing to come out and begging to live with Nathan. After her mother said that she was to live with her except on weekends which were spent with her father Lydia refused to acknowledge Haley's existence.

"Thank God" Lydia said as Haley pulled up to the school and hopped out of the car before Haley got the chance to even say anything.

"Love you too" Haley said to herself pulling away from the school.

No kid takes a divorce well but Lydia was broken about it, she had seen her parents together for fifteen years and now her father was living in her grandpa Dan's old beach house while her mother adjusted to being a single again. They expected Jamie to take it the worst but it was their little girl who was having the worst time with it.

Someone to help hear the music in the world.

Millie walked out of Tree Hill elementary school after dropping off her youngest son Hux before starting her drive to B. the store Brooke had opened up five years ago and put Millie in charge. The store was a lot like Clothes over Bro's but had its difference's as well. Millie was happy that Brooke trusted her after what she had done so long ago because Millie was happy to be back in her atmosphere of working instead of being on television every week day morning, it just wasn't Millie.

After having her son Jimmie Millie took off work for a few years until Brooke decided to open another store and put her in charge of everything there. It was hard being a working mom but Millie wasn't the type to stay at home anyways, after being home for so long when she had Jimmie she got a little stir crazy.

"Can I help you with anything" Millie ask a costumer after she had opened.

"Do you have these in a size six" the woman ask her.

"Yes just let me run to the back and grab them".

Did Millie have the perfect life? No she didn't but that was the way she liked it, she enjoyed being a mother, a wife, a friend, and a trust worthy person. That was the life that she loved the most.

To remind us that it won't always be this way.

"Sorry I know I'm late" Peyton said rushing into red bedroom records where Chris and Mia sat impatiently at the desk.

"The band has been in there for twenty minute what happened" Mia ask her former boss and now co-worker.

"Well, I went to get L.J from the river court but he wasn't there so I look all over town then I finally get a call from Brooke that she picked him up then I took Keith to school on my way here my tire blew so I called Lucas but he was already at the garage so I had to wait for him then he had to go get a car part real quick but I am here and ready to listen to the band what is their name"?

"Mother fuc-" Chris started.

"Meaning we are going to discuss their name with them" Mia said covering Chris's mouth before her son heard him "sounds like you had a morning though huh"?

"It seems like everything is like this anymore".

Peyton could barely remember to brush her teeth anymore every time she turned around she was taking L.J to basketball practice or running Keith to soccer or Lucas forgot something at the house. She felt like a maid and a chauffeur it was hard having two teenagers and one adult which was weird enough for her since Sawyer moved out.

That someone is out there and that someone will find you.

Jenny parked her car outside a cute little café and looked up to see the words Karen's café, she reminded herself it was worth a shot. She got out of her car and walked in before sitting on one of the stools next to a blond curly head.

"What can I get you" a tall brown headed man asks her from behind the counter.

"Coffee please" she said.

"You new around here" the girl next to her ask spinning around to face Jenny.

"Yeah how can you tell"?

"I know everybody around here my name is Sawyer and this here is Jamie Scott we're cousins you are"?

"Jenny my name is Jenny".

"Well Jenny welcome to Tree Hill".
