"Hey Tom lets go!" Lucas yelled down the hall of his childhood home.

"He's not here; he walked to school with Marcus." Haley said, walking into the hallway.

"Good morning." Lucas planted a sweet kiss on Haley's lips.

"Let me help you with that." Haley said, seeing that Lucas was having trouble with his tie.

"After 10 years, you'd think I'd get the hang of it." Lucas laughed. "Hey munchkins." He said to Brandon and Tiffany as he and Haley walked into the kitchen.

"Hey dad." Brandon said through a mouth full of cheerios.

"Are you taking them to school?" Lucas asked Haley as he poured himself a bowl.

"Yeah, but can you pick them up? I'm short on help at the café."

"Have tom help you."

"He has basketball practice." Haley sighed. "I should just have him quit, I could use a lot more help."

"Come on hales, he loves basketball. Hell, I love it." Lucas got up and wrapped his arms around Haley's torso. "You can't take a man away from something he loves." Lucas bit Haley's ear playfully.

"Lucas!" Haley shot her eyes to her children.

"I gotta get going." Lucas said. "Bye kiddos." He kissed his children's hair.

"Later dad." Brandon said

"Bye daddy." Tiffany said

"I'll pick them up after school." Lucas kissed the top of Haley's head.

"I'll be home around 5." Haley said, looking up at her husband.

"How's tom getting home?" Lucas asked.

"He's walking back with Marcus after practice. I love you. Bye." Haley said and Lucas walked out of his house.

"Yo, Tom, what you doing this weekend?" Marcus asked as they walked into Tree Hill High.

"I gotta go with my dad, man. It's my sister's birthday on Saturday."

"Aw, to bad. My pops was gonna take us to see Duke vs. Stanford."

"I wish I could but you know family stuff. Hey I'll see you in Mr. Carnes's class." Tommy said and walked off to his locker.

"Come on guys, let's go!" Nathan yelled up the stairs.

"Coming!" said daughter Sarah as she ran down the stairs.

"Hey dad." 6 year old Jason said, trailing his older sister.

"Help me." Brooke said, following her children. She handed Nathan her favorite Channel necklace and pulled her hair up. Nathan slowly clasped the necklace, his fingers lingering around her neck.

"Good morning beautiful." He said into her ear.

Brooke turned around and kissed him. "Good morning." She said, and then walked into the kitchen.

"What's for breakfast mom?" asked Jason

"Well I have bagels, toast, or cereal, take your pick."

"How about these?" Nathan held up a box with a Krispy Kreme label.

"Yum!" said Sarah.

"Nathan, you can't tease me…" Brooke was cut off bye Nathan holing up a Starbucks cup and bag.

"Non-fat latte and a blueberry scone." Nathan said.

"I love you." Brooke said and kissed Nathan again, except this time a little longer. Once they broke apart Nathan looked down at his watch.

"Lets go kids, or else were gonna be late. I'll see you tonight." Nathan kisses Brooke's cheek and herded his kids out the door. He turned around and saw Brooke looking out the front door. "I love you!" he yelled then got in his BMW and drove away.

Nathan sat at his desk reading over files. His phone rang loudly.

"Nathan Scott."

"Hey babe."

"Hey, what's up?"

"Well you know its Sarah's birthday on Saturday."

"I've known for the past two months." Nathan laughed.

"And you know it's a very important party."

"Brooke, baby, I've set everything up. The caterer, the DJ, the popcorn machine."

"I know, I know."

"Then what is it."

"Sarah really wants Thomas to be there."

"He is going to be there. I told Haley last week. Why?"

"She wants him to be there on Friday night so we can go to dinner."

"Well, I'll call Haley in a little bit and see what time I can pick him up. I'll do my best."

"Ok, I'll see you in a bit. Bye"

"Bye love you." Nathan said and hung up the phone.
