Hello my darlings! So I know I said this was a one-shot but I got asked an important question that needed an answer... So it's now a two-shot! Thanks for reading.

"Nathan!" Haley yelled up the stairs, "We're going to be late." Haley rubbed her rounded stomach.

Nathan came jogging down the stairs, "Sorry you know how Jamie is about his monkey, we have to drop it by moms on the way to the Café." Nathan planted a kiss on Haley's cheek, "Have I told you lately that you are one hot pregnant woman?" He bent down and kissed her belly, "In just a few short months we're going to be a family of four. Think we can handle it?"

Haley folded her arms across her chest, "Brooke and Luke manage just fine and they had twins." Haley stared at her house, they had found out they were expecting right after they moved back to Tree Hill. "I still haven't finished unpacking the house yet. Maybe we need a nanny?"

Nathan and Haley both laughed, "No, I think we'll manage babe, we always do." Nathan had decided it was time to move his family back to Tree Hill even though he had just signed a contract with the Charlotte Bobcats. "I'll be here with you till right after Lydia is born, then in the fall Jamie will start kindergarten. Plus my mom is here and she's been a big help lately."

"I know, I know." Haley smiled, "Let's get going, we're already late. Did you tell anyone why they were coming?"

"Nope," Nathan laughed as they headed for the garage, "I thought it would be cool, Whitey always loved our graduating class the best anyhow. He's the reason I got into the NBA Hales it's time for a huge birthday party."

"You don't think a surprise party is a bad idea for a senior citizen?" Haley asked as she climbed into the car.

"He's turning 60 Hales; we need to have a party." Nathan replied as he backed out of the driveway.

After dropping off Jamie's monkey, Nathan turned down the familiar street that headed to the café. "Hey isn't that Luke and Brooke?" Nathan stopped the car next to the family, "What's up?" He looked at Lucas and winked, "How much pretty boy?"

Brooke pointed at him, "Hey! None of that my children are present. Make your dumb jokes another time."

Lucas added, "Where've you been? Everyone was waiting on you at the café; Brooke's tired so I'm taking my family home. What is this about?"

"I wanna throw Whitey a 60th birthday party. We all promised to come back anyways, thought it would help if everyone had a reason." Nathan smiled, "Are you going to get in the car or what?"

Brooke kissed Lucas, "Go ahead broody. I'll bring the kids to the house; we can all get a nap in."

"Are you sure?" Lucas asked.

"Yes, now get in the car before I change my mind." Brooke waved at the car, "Hey tutor mom, we have to get together soon. How are you feeling?"

"Great," Haley called to her best friend while she rubbed her stomach. "How are you feeling?"

"Wait a minute, Haley knew before I did?" Lucas scowled, "How is that fair?"

"It was all coincidence Luke, no reason to get your knickers all in a bunch." Brooke grabbed Hope and Keith's hands, "I love you, see you in a few hours."

"I love you too pretty girl." Lucas smiled as Nathan pulled away from the curb and continued towards the café.

Nathan, Haley and Lucas headed into the café. "Hi everyone," Nathan said with a smile, "I'm so glad to see all of you."

"What are we all doing here Nate?" Peyton asked, avoiding Lucas's eyes, she wasn't sure if Brooke had told him about what happened earlier but she didn't want to deal with that confrontation right now.

"Coach Durham is turning 60 tomorrow night and I wanted to throw him a surprise party. He has been a force to be reckoned with since he himself attended Tree Hill High, I thought it was the least we could do for a man who truly is a hero to this town." Nathan beamed when he talked about Whitey, "I know many of us wouldn't be where we are today without coach's help. So I know everyone took time out of their busy lives to come here this weekend and Haley and I thank you for that from the bottom of our hearts." He put his arm around his wife, "So what do you say Tree Hill, who's with me?"

After the cheers of approval Haley went to sit down, Peyton followed her, "I didn't know you and Nathan were having another baby."

"Why would you?" Haley questioned, "You haven't exactly been keeping in touch with everyone. Did you see Brooke while she was here?"

"I did," Peyton looked down, "Old grudges die hard I guess." Peyton's eyes drifted towards Lucas's direction.

Haley caught her, "He's married Peyton; you know that right… to Brooke."

Peyton laughed, "Of course I knew." Haley kinked an eyebrow at her, "Alright well I found out this afternoon. I don't know why I never thought to google them before." Peyton spun the bracelets on her wrist, "I'm happy for them and those kids are super cute."

"I'm glad to hear that you're wishing them well Peyton, I was worried about inviting you to be honest." Haley frowned, "I didn't want there to be any drama and I wasn't sure when you spoke to them last."

Peyton shrugged, "I haven't spoken to Brooke since she moved to New York after the summer we spent in California. I don't really know why that is, some friendships just end I suppose."

"So how are things with you?" Haley asked, "How's work? Do you have a beau in California?"

"Work is great; Red Bedroom is flourishing under the Sony umbrella. I just signed a new artist." Peyton looked in Lucas's direction again, and then shook her head, 'enough Peyton' she told herself, "And there isn't really time for a boyfriend right now. Although there is this guy…" Peyton trailed off.

"Why did you stop if it's nothing," Haley quizzed. "The smile on your face doesn't say it's nothing."

Peyton laughed, "His name is Julian we've gone out a handful of times, nothing serious. He's a movie producer; he's trying to secure funding to make his first movie. So time is limited."

"Your face lit up just now," Haley paused, "If I were you I would go for it. Lucas and Brooke found happiness, you should too Peyton."

"Thank you Haley," Peyton replied, "I think I really needed that." Peyton took out her phone and sent Julian a text: Thinking of you, would you like to grab dinner when I get back into town? Before she could say anything else to Haley her phone chimed with a response: Absolutely blondie, call me when you get home Sunday… I would love to see you again.

A blush spread across Peyton's cheeks, "See I told you." Haley smiled.

"Pretty girl are you up?" Lucas called out to Brooke when he opened the front door. He smiled when he found Brooke in the bathroom sticking out her still nonexistent stomach. "What are you doing?"

Brooke's cheeks reddened, "With the twins I was already showing by this time, I mean it wasn't a HUGE bump, but it was a bump. Right now I just look like I have beer bloat." Brooke frowned, pulling down her top. "Did you have fun broody?" She kissed him gently before heading to the kitchen, "Hot chocolate?"

"Mmmmm," Lucas said, "Sounds good." He took two coffee mugs out of the cabinet and set them on the counter, "Being in this house feels strange."

Brooke giggled, "Doesn't it, I feel like we're going to get caught by your mother."

"Well it sure beats a hotel room, plus I like seeing the kids here." Lucas smiled.

"Funny you should mention that because I was thinking." Brooke hopped up onto the counter and motioned for Lucas to come closer, "With Haley and I being pregnant at the same time, what do you think about moving back to Tree Hill for a while. See how it fits?"

"The kids would get to spend more time with their cousin Jamie." Lucas said as he kissed her neck, "And we could start to enjoy our life a little. If we kept all of our work out of Tree Hill it would be like a permanent vacation."

Brooke giggled as Lucas's stumble grazed her collar bone, "Maybe I could finally open that small boutique style store I've been talking about for over a year."

Lucas moved his hands to her breasts, "So it's settled them?"

"Trying to finish the conversation Mr. Scott?" Brooke raised her eyebrow and smiled. "The kids will be up soon, there's no time for that."

"There's NEVER anytime for that anymore," Lucas pouted.

Brooke laughed again, "If that were the case we wouldn't be having another child."

"So does it feel like a boy?" Lucas rubbed her stomach, "Or a girl?"

Brooke shrugged, "I don't know, it feels different than my last pregnancy, but last time there was two of them. There isn't this time, I had them triple check."

Lucas lifted his arms over his head, "We survived the first two, if it were twins we would manage."

"Well..." Brooke trailed off.

"Really pretty girl? Another set of twins?" Lucas gulped.

"No!" Brooke screamed, "I just wanted to see your reaction."

"So what are we going to do with the kids tomorrow?" Lucas said, "You know for Whitey's party."

Brooke bit her tongue, she had a surprise coming in tomorrow morning for Lucas, his mother and little sister were flying in, "I'm sure we can figure out something."

Before Lucas could respond they heard two sets of tiny feet running down the hallway, "Daddy!" Hope screamed and ran to latch onto his leg.

"Dada!" Keith yelled and ran up to him and latched onto the other leg.

"See I told you," Brooke said, "Who wants hot chocolate?" Both the children raised their hands, "See Luke this is what life is all about." She turned to her husband and winked.
