"Okay that will be great...Yeah Brooke and I are going away from the weekend...Okay I will see you when we get back...Sure Cheers" I said on the phone.
"Who was that?" Brooke asked me.
"Oh Nate...he is coming home" I told Brooke
"Oh really...I can't beileve it, do you think he will really come home...I mean he says that every time" Brooke asked me..
"Yeah I know...it's been about 7 years, and even when we talk to him weekly it's not the same as seeing him" I said thinking about Nate.
"Yeah...but does that mean he found Hales or his...giving up on her?" Brooke asked me worried.
"I don't think Hales is with him...he sounded a little sad this time" I told her.
"I wish Hales could just pitch up here...maybe one day she will" Brooke said sadly
"Yeah me to...but right now I don't see that happening...she has been away for 15 years...she probably married with kids by now" I said.
"I wonder why she never stayed in touch..."Brooke wonder to herself.
"Anyway we just have to wait for Ash and Ian and we can get on the road" I said. Brooke smiled happly.
"Yeah road trip here we come" Brooke joked.
"Come here" I said pulling Brooke into my arms as I kissed her gently on the lips. After all these years I still so much in love with her.
Ashley
"So Ryan you going to Chris party tonight?" I asked Ryan just before cheerleading started. Ryan was the shooting guard on the Ravens basketball team.
"Well maybe...are you?" Ryan asked me.
"Hell yeah" I joked with him.
"Ryan...Chris get over here" Jake shouted. Jake was the coach for the Ravens. Whitey was still around and helped Jake out when he needed help, but Coach Whitey was old.
"Then count me in" Ryan shouted to me as he ran to the court to play.
I jump up and down. I had liked Ryan for so long and he was finally starting to realise that I was round and not invisable.
"So I saw you and hottie talking" Tash said walking up to me. I smiled
"I told him I am going to Chris party and after that he said count me in then" I shreked to Tash.
"Well it's about time" Tash joked
"What time is it?" Kylie asked confused.
"Cheer time" I shouted to my squad. I was head cheerleader just like my mom.
We had our daily practis and then we all went back to my house so I could say goodbye to my parents before they lefted for New York.
"Mom...dad" I
shouted as the three of us walked into the kitchen.
"Hey"
my dad greeted us. My mom and dad where sitting with Uncle Month and
Aunt Rachel.
"Hey mom...dad" Tash greeted them.
"Ashley I want you to
listen to what I said about the party tonight...no drinking" my
mom started moaing at me.
"Don't worry mom...I wont break
any of your rules" I shouted back at her.
"ASHLEY respect your mother" My dad said as he always threw in his 2 cents.
I signed. "Fine" I shouted as I stormed to my bedroom to pack my clothes.
"It's going to be so
nice being free of my parents for this weekend" I signed as I
lay on my bed.
"Don't get to happy...we still have my
parents to deal with" Kylie inform me.
"Kylie...shhh...you gonna ruin my dream" I joked with her.
"Moan...moan..moan" Kylie joked back with me.
"So what are our plans for tonight?" Tash asked us.
I smiled at her. "Just what my mom told me not to do" I smiled at them both and they both smiled back at me as they helped me get al my stuff..
Rachel
"Thanks so much for looking after him for the weekend" Brooke said to me as Mouth and I started walking out the door.
"It's cool Brooke...you and Lucas must have a good time" I said as I hugged Brooke.
"No kids for a whole weekend...how can I not enjoy myself?" Brooke joked with me
We both laughed and Ian said goodbye to Brooke and Lucas then go into the car with us.
"Bye mom dad" Ian shouted as Mouth drove off.
"So we going to pick up Lee and Micheal now from swimming...what would you three like to do tonight?" I asked Ian.
"We like pizas and movies" Ian said
"Then pizas and movies it is" Mouth laughed.
We all three laughed and drove to fetch the boys.
Kylie
"Bye mom dad" Ashley shouted from the door as we left the Scotts house.
"Bye girls" Uncle Lucas said as we all left the house.
"So what you going to wear?" I asked them.
"I don't know about me but I think you should wear that new strapless shirt you bought last week" Ashley told me.
"So yeah maybe with those black pants" I said imaging the outfit in my head.
"Yeah that will look hot" Tash said.
"While you guys what about me...Ryan has finally noticed me I have to be more than hot" Ashley said as all three wonder what she could wear.
"We will have to figure it out later...but now we are late and my parents are going to kill me" I said.
Brooke
"Thanks P. Jagelski...yeah I will...see you sunday night...bye" I said as I hand up the phone.
"So is everything set?" Lucas asked me.
"All set husband" I joked. Lucas smiled as I grabbed my coat and we both head for the car.
"So Peyton said she will watch Ashley for us...I mean the drinking thing" I said as Lucas and I were on the road.
"You can't keep her from drinking forever" Lucas told me
"What you mean?" I asked annoyed.
"While remember what
you were like that age?" Lucas asked me as I laughed.
"Yeah
and I don't want my daughter like that..." I said as I remember
back to the past.
"Besides I had a reason...I didn't have parents around...she does" I told Lucas firmly.
"Yeah Brooke...yeah" Lucas said trying not to laugh.
"Just shut up and drive" I joked with him as I hit his arm
We both laughed.
Peyton
"Brooke is so worried that Ashley is going to get drunk tonight" I told Jake later that afternoon.
"Where are the girls?" Jake asked me.
"Oh Kylie phoned and said they will be back around 5" I said as I looked at the clock on the wall that read 5:15.
"It looks like they late" Jake said looking at the clock then me.
"Hey mom dad" Kylie shouted from the door.
"Oh here they are" I said as Jake and I walked to the door where the were.
"Hey Aunt Peyton...Uncle Jake" Ashley and Tash greeted.
"Thanks so much for letting me stay here" Ashley said as she hugged me.
"Your mother told me to keep an eye on you...so no drinking Ashley...and that goes for you to Kylie" I warned my daughter
"We wont drink...so don't worry" Ashley said all sweetly to me.
I smiled. "I am trusting you three" I said as I walked upstairs to Belle who was crying.
"While what time is it?" Jake asked the girls
"Well the cool people only arrived at like 10:30" Tash said smiling.
"Tash" Kylie and Ashley nudged.
"Opps" Tash said looking at Kylie and Ashley.
All three girls just smiled sweely at Jake.
"Hey little girl" I said as I picked up Belle.
"How you doing?" I asked her as I craddle her. She smiled at me and I took her downstairs to Jake. She was a daddy's girl.
"Jenny phoned and said you can borrow her boots...for some reason" I told Kylie as I walked past her.
"Thanks mom" Kylie shouted happly as all three girls raced upstairs.
Mouth
We fetched Lee and Micheal from swimming leason and then headed home before geting supper and videos.
"So Tash said that she will be going with Kylie and Ashley to the party" I said to Rachel.
"While I trust her enough it will be fine" Rachel said as she put coffee on for herself and Mouth.
"You wanna watch a movie tonight?" I asked her.
"But what about the boys?" Rachel asked.
"We will ask Betty to watch them?" I said. Betty was our babysitter.
"Okay...there's this movie I really wanna see" Rachel said smiling.
"Okay so it's setteled we are gonna watch a movie" I said taking a sip of my coffee.
Jenny
"Hey Karen" I said as I walked into the Cafe.
"Hello Jenny...how
are you?" Karen asked me. I smiled at her.
"I really
don't mind working over time tonight...I totally understand you and
Kieth want a alone time...I still can't beileve that you have been
married for 16 years.." I said smiling.
"I know I am getting to old" Karen joked with me.
"I am sure Lilly must hate that is your annervisity" I asked Karen.
"She always catches Keith and I kissing" Karen said laughing.
I laughed. "For a 15 years old girl..pretty terrible" I said still laughing.
"Anyway thanks so much Jenny...I promise I will pay you over time" Karen said before she headed for her bag.
"Nah don't worry...just say I am doing it for love" I joked with her as she smiled at me and open the door.
"So if Lilly has another brother or sister...I will tell her it was for you" Karen laughed.
"Oh no...she will kill me" I laughed
"Enjoy" I shouted as Karen walked out and headed home.
I started wipping the one table as I laughed thinking about what Karen had said.
Karen
"Hey Honey" I greeted my daugher Lilly
"Hey mom...I am going to this party tonight with Ash, Kylie and Tash is that okay?" Lilly asked me.
"Yeah sure...is it okay if you send the night at one of there house?" I asked her.
"Sure but why?" Lilly asked confused
I just looked at her.
"Oh my word...today
is your annerversary, I totally forgot?" Lilly asked me with a
shock on her face. I laughed.
"You don't have to worry
about me...I will get my stuff now and leave" Lilly said as she
quickly run to her room.
She come back alittle
while later with her bags packed.
"I will be out of your
way...even though it freaks me out" Lilly said horrified at the
thought of her parents together like that.
"Thanks so much Lilly" I said hugging my daughter tight.
"Love you mom" Lilly said as she hugged her back.
"Love you to" I said as she started for the door.
"And mom please don't get pregantant tonight" Lilly said and then burst into laughter as she walked out.
I looked at her in shock then shook it off and started getting everything ready.
I wanted to show Keith how important he was to me. I got dressed into the nice dress I had picked up a few days ago and sat down waiting for Keith to arrive.
Keith
"Hey" I shouted from the front door.
"Hi" Karen said
with a sexy voice. I smiled at her and sat next to her.
"Happy
Annaversary" Karen said
"Happy Annaversary" I said back before pulling Karen in for a passionate kiss.
Nathan
I packed my bags and took the taxis to the airport. I phoned Lucas when I was there, just to let him know that I was coming back. I had my ticket in and board the plane. I was ready to move home and start a whole new life without Haley James.
