Episode 1 Chapter 3 Here We Go Again

"Spencer, what the hell is she talking about?" Lily yelled at Spencer.

Spencer looked at Lila. He was unsure of what she had said.

"Answer me?" Lily was becoming irate.

Spencer looked at Lila again.

"I told her the truth. I told her that I didn't know that you weren't my husband. John was the one that changed the results." Lila was relieved.

"Lily, I know that I should have told you."

"Hell yeah you should have told me. How could you let this bitch get away with kidnapping you?"

"I'm gonna go inside and check on Molly." Lila walks passed Spencer.

"Lily," he was trying to calm her. "I did it for Molly."

Lily shook her head. "What about you're other kids? Did you think about them? They lost you for two years. She did that. That crazy ass bitch did that to us."

Spencer sighed. "She was upset. She didn't know what she was doing."

"She knew exactly what she was doing."

"Lily you need to calm down. It's not like we're together anymore. This doesn't affect you."

"Oh I get it," Lily scoffed. "You are punishing me because I married Graham. But you are wrong about this not affecting me. We have kids together. This affects them, therefore it affects me." Lily placed her hands on her head. "This is a very big deal."

"I know that what Lila did was wrong, but I can't punish Molly. She needs her mother. You know that more than anyone."

Lily shook her head.

"I'll tell Lila to stay away from you."

"Tree Hill is a small town. I am bound to run into her."

"I don't see why it is such a big deal….I'm alive because Lila saved me."

Lily couldn't believe what he was saying. "Do you love her?"

"No," Spencer sighed. "But I care about her."

"Even though she is the reason why you lost everything."

Spencer rolled his eyes. "You are the reason why I lost everything. I came back, and you chose someone else. I am supposed to be your soul mate, but you didn't choose me. You chose someone else." Spencer was heartbroken over her decision. "I don't know why you didn't choose me. I'll never understand. But I did what I did because of my daughter. I can't send her mother to prison."

"I did what I did for my kids as well. If you haven't noticed they love Graham."

She really knew how to hit below the belt.

"You're right. You have changed. You've really become a bitch. I guess we have Graham to thank for that."

Lily slaps him right across the face. "I've always been a bitch." She brushed the hair out of her face. "I'm pregnant by the way." She walks passed him into the house to get the kids.

Spencer's face turned almost ghost white. There was no way that they would get back together now.

…..

Elizabeth and Savannah are still sitting in Elizabeth's house.

"I don't think that you have anything to worry about."

Savannah just looked at her.

"Drake gave you his kidney. That boy loves you more than anything in the world. I am pretty sure that he would wait for you forever."

Savannah smiled. "Not many girls can say that the boy they love gave them a kidney."

"No…They can't, but you can. And…Let me tell you sex…It can complicate things. It puts an added pressure on the relationship. I know that you and Drake are married, but you have the rest of your life to have sex with each other. Just enjoyed being together and loving each other for a while…You don't need to have sex with him before you are ready…That could hurt your relationship, and I know that you don't want that."

"No…I just don't want Drake to hate me."

"That is never going to happen. You are the love of his life…He'll wait for you."

Savannah smiled. "How are you doing? Are you okay?"

"Why wouldn't I be okay?"

"You just got a divorce. I know you never thought that would happen."

Elizabeth shook her head. "Well when you get married you never plan on getting a divorce. The day that I found out our divorce was finalized I was heartbroken, but there is nothing that I can do about it. No one wants their marriage to end."

"Do you think Noah will come back?"

Elizabeth shook her head again. "I am not certain of very many things, but I am certain that Noah is out of my life for good. You know even if he came back I don't think that I could forgive him for giving up on us. That part of my life is over."

"It's time for you to start over." Savannah smiled. "You could start over with Daniel. He is a pretty good father."

"He is a great father, but that is all he is. We are not going to be together."

Savannah nodded, but she could definitely feel some chemistry between the two of them.

….

Daniel is sitting in his office. Jeremy walks in. "Hey man…what you thinking about?" He could tell Daniel's mind was a thousand miles away. Jeremy sat down.

Daniel shook his head. "My brother…I was thinking about my brother. I don't know if I'm allowed to call him that. He basically said that I wasn't his brother."

"You are his brother. You'll always be brothers." Jeremy told him. "I tried to forget about my dad, but we talk a lot more now. We even hang out when he is in town. It takes some time, but it will get better."

"I don't know. I'm the father of his ex wife's children. I don't think you can come back from that."

Jeremy chuckled.

"How are you man?" Daniel asked. He could sense that something was up.

Jeremy sighed. "I'm okay."

"I don't think so."

"Breanne and I aren't even married yet, and we have to deal with a moody, rebellious teenager." Jeremy shook his head. "And Breanne doesn't believe in punishing him."

"That pisses you off?"

Jeremy nodded. "Yeah it pisses me off. He has no respect for either one of us. He's basically using us."

Daniel laughed.

"Why are you laughing?"

"I'm just so glad that Emma and Madeline are still little kids. I don't know what I am going to do when they become teenagers…You know I never knew that I wanted to be a father, but I wouldn't change it for anything in the world."

"Yeah well I am happy to be a father, but I don't want to be a father to Brantley. I don't trust him."

…..

Millie was in the back putting away some of the dishes. Brantley walked into the back. "I see that lover boy is gone." He rolled his eyes. "Are you ready for the big night?"

"How did you know about that?"

He didn't answer.

"Oh let me guess, you were ease dropping."

"You are a pretty good guesser."

"And you are an ass."

"Thanks…I'll take that as a compliment."

"You shouldn't. Never take anything I say to you as a compliment." Millie rolled her eyes.

"You won't sleep with him tonight."

"Excuse you," Millie glared at him. "My life is none of your business."

"You don't love him. The two of you are better as friends. There is no chemistry."

Millie walked closer to him. "You wouldn't know chemistry if it bit you on the ass."

"Oh I can do chemistry way better than that boyfriend of yours…" Without even thinking he leaned in and passionately kissed her. He finally pulled away from her. They stared at each other for a moment before he walked away.

Millie was speechless.

…..

Brooke, Sophie, Lucy, and Natalie were walking in the mall.

"I'm hungry Aunt Brooke." Lucy told her.

"Yeah me too." Natalie added.

Brooke looked over at Sophie. "Are you hungry too?"

"Well now that they mentioned it, I could really use some ice cream."

"Oh yeah that would definitely hit the spot." Lucy added.

"Okay…Ice cream it is." Brooke smiled. She looked up to see Peyton. "Girls let's go that way." It was too late. Natalie spotted her mom.

"Mommy," Natalie ran into Peyton's arms. Lucy followed.

"Mommy…"

Brooke was shocked. What was Peyton doing at the mall?

"Hi girls," Peyton missed her girls, but she wasn't ready for them to know that she was back.

"Mommy, are you coming home?"

Brooke looked at her. She couldn't wait to hear how Peyton was going to answer that question.

"Well girls…I've missed you too…But I don't think I am going to be able to come home for a while."

"Why not, mommy?" Lucy asked.

Peyton wasn't sure what she should say. "Well…I'm…You see…Your daddy and I have decided to take a little break."

Brooke wanted to punch her in the face. Lucas did not want to take a break. He wanted his wife back.

"No mommy…"

"Listen sweetheart just because I'm not at home with you does not mean that I don't love you. I love you very, very much…And very soon you'll be able to come see my new apartment…I know you girls are going to love it."

Natalie and Lucy just sat there. They were obviously sad.

Brooke just looked at Peyton and shook her head. She didn't know who Peyton had become.

….

Nathan walked into Lucas's house. Lucas walked downstairs. "Hey…I didn't know you were coming over."

"Yeah well I wanted to see my brother. Where's Brody?"

"He is out like a light."

Nathan smiled.

Lucas walked to the fridge. "I know it is early but do you want a beer?"

"Actually, that sounds great."

Lucas grabbed two out of the fridge and walked to the couch where Nathan was now sitting.

Lucas was about to speak when he heard a knock at the door, and then Lily busted in.

"Hey Lil…" He could tell she was on a mission.

"Hi…" She smiled. She felt like she had ran to his house. She was so mad. "I'm glad you are both here…I just want you to know that I'm pregnant…Lila is staying in Tree Hill…And Spencer is a son of a bitch."

Both Lucas and Nathan shared looks. They weren't sure what they were supposed to say.

"Well that's why I came over…Aren't you going to say something?" She had her hands on her hips.

"Congratulations," They both said at the same time.

"Thanks," Lily smiled. "I've got to go. I just thought you would want to know." She marched to the door. "Bye…"

Nathan looked at Lucas. "I think she may be going crazy."

Lucas shook his head. "I think that she gets that from you."

"Yeah, yeah." Nathan laughed and took another drink of his beer.

…..

Peyton and Brooke were standing to the side. The girls were eating ice cream in the food court.

"I see Lucas has you taking care of my daughters."

"Someone has too. It seems that their mother has abandoned them." It took everything in Brooke not to slap her across the face.

"I guess I deserve that. I don't want to hurt them Brooke."

"Well you are hurting them. You are hurting all of us."

Peyton shook her head. "I can't help it. I wasn't happy. That is why I started drinking."

"You started drinking because you are selfish, and you weren't thinking about anyone but yourself."

Peyton sighed. "I'm going to say goodbye to my girls." Peyton walked away.

Brooke sighed. She wasn't going to have very much fun telling Lucas what happened.

….

Lila was sitting on Spencer's couch.

"I'm sorry about that." Lila told him.

"You shouldn't have to keep apologizing. If it wasn't for you I wouldn't be alive. You saved me Lila."

Lila didn't say anything.

"Lily is just mad because she knows that she made a mistake. She knows that we're supposed to be together, but now it is too late. We will never be together again, and that is on her…Not you."

…

Lucas and Nathan are still sitting on the couch watching ESPN.

Brooke walks in with the girls.

"Hey you guys are back early." Lucas stood up.

Natalie and Lucy both stared at him.

"Did you get some cool stuff?"

"You are a liar." Lucy yelled at him.

"Excuse me, where did that come from young lady?"

"And you're a jerk." Natalie took her turn to yell at him. They both headed upstairs.

Lucas looked at Brooke. "What happened?"

Nathan was now standing.

"Peyton is back in town, and the girls saw her. She's not coming back home Lucas. She made that perfectly clear."

Lucas took another drink of his beer. He was probably going to need another one very soon.

….

Jenny walks into Sterling's nursery. Mia was holding him.

"I can't believe how big he is getting."

"What are you doing here?"

"I came to see my baby brother." Jenny sat down next to Mia. "Can I hold him? I haven't held him in a while."

"I'm holding him right now." Mia was cold.

"Mia," Jenny tried to find the strength she needed to talk to her. "Are you okay? What you are doing with Sterling isn't normal."

Mia didn't say anything.

"I'm worried about you, and my dad is worried about you as well."

"I'm fine."

"Mia…I know what it is like to be depressed. I've been there. I know that you need help."

"I'm not depressed. I'm scared." Mia admitted. "I'm scared of losing my baby. I'm scared that something is going to happen to him."

"Oh Mia…I promise nothing is going to happen. He's going to be just fine."

"I have to keep him safe. I have to make sure he is okay."

Jenny smiled. At least they knew where to start.

….

Let me know what you thought!
