Hi guys :)

Sorry it's taken me a while to update, but I've had all my exams and stuff. Not fun.

Thanks for all the reviews! :D

Don't forget to tell me what you think of this one as well.

I know this isn't the best chapter so far, but please stick with me.

"You know what. I think I might come." The voice stated.

"Good." Nathan smiled.

As she walked around the kitchen, making breakfast for her two children, she stopped and looked at them. Really looked at them. 'They look so much like their father' she thought to herself whilst a soft smile spread across her face. Her daughter, 7 years old now, and she still had the same brown hair as the day she first saw her. And her son, God, he was the spitting image of her father already, and he was only 2 years old. She loved her family, she really did, but when she really thought about it, she knew something was missing. In a way she always had.

Home.

For the first time in 5 years, Peyton Sawyer-Jagielski was going home. And this time she was bringing back a family.

"Hello" Nathan answered the phone as soon as it started ringing.

"Yes Sir" He stated. "A full scholarship, yes sir, tell Coach K I won't let him down" He added with a huge grin plastered across his face. "Thank you" Nathan said just before he hung up.

"Haley" He shouted, his voice echoing through the small apartment.

"What?" She asked in a faint voice. She was visibly pale as she emerged from the bathroom.

"I'm going to Duke"

"I'm pregnant" Nathan's face shone with an assortment of emotions. Anger, hurt, confusion. At that point in time, Haley wished that she couldn't read him as well as she could.

"Its not Brooke, its me" Haley clarified.

"How long have you known?" He asked, the information he'd just received not quite sinking in.

"A few weeks"

"A few weeks?" He stated in a raised voice. Haley winced at the amount of anger in his voice.

"I'm sorry, I didn't know how to tell you." She said, watching on as he sighed and started walking towards the island in the middle of the kitchen, she then followed close behind.

"Can you talk to me? Can you tell me what you're thinking?"

"Do you still want to go to Stanford?" He asked.

"What?" Haley said whilst furrowing her brow, confused at his change of conversation.

"Stanford, for college?"

"Erm, yeah, of course I do…" She was interrupted by Nathans phone ringing. He looked down and saw it was Rachael that was calling.

"I have to go." He said, wanting to go and find out what Rachael wanted, but also wanting to get out of there to clear his head.

"Nathan, Nathan!"

"I'm pregnant." She said, trying to get him to talk to her. "We're pregnant. At least tell me how you fell about that." She was getting desperate now.

"I feel like you should have told me a few weeks ago." He stated coldly. "That's how I feel."

Haley's body shot up from the bed. Her breathing was heavy after waking up from dreaming about one of the worst conversations of her life.

He never talked to her about it. He never told her what he was thinking.

After that conversation, he left the apartment, and didn't come back until the next day. He came back, only to get some of his things, mumble something about Dan getting the rest of them tomorrow, and he left. Leaving his wife, who was crying hysterically behind. But he knew it wasn't only her he was leaving. And Haley only wished he would have returned. But she gave up hope on that the day he left for Duke.

When he left her at the doorway of their apartment that day, he moved in with Dan at his beach house. He wouldn't leave for Duke for another month, and that was the worst month of Haley's life. He knew she was pregnant. He knew he was going to have a child. He knew everything, but that didn't stop him from ignoring her. And that didn't stop him from turning the other way if he saw her in that corridor. She had cried herself to sleep that month so many times that she'd eventually lost count.

And what hurt the most? That was the fact that when he left for Duke, he didn't even say goodbye. Not even a letter explaining his actions towards her and their son. After his abandoning them, isn't that the least she could have asked for?

"Mama, why are you crying?" Jamie asked her tentatively.

She hadn't even realised that there were tears running down her cheeks. 3 years ago. That was the last time she had cried over him. 'Why did he have to come back?!' She asked herself.

"I don't know baby. I must be a bit tired still." She said, trying to reassure her still doubtful son.

"Ok then." He said with a smile appearing on his face.

"Are you ready to spend the day with Uncle Luke and Aunt Brooke?"

"Yep" Jamie said, with his smile growing, but it soon turned into a frown. "Why can't I spend the day with you, Mama?"

"I already told you baby. I have to clean the house."

"But I already put away all my toys." Jamie stated whilst his bottom lip started to stick out.

Haley tried to stifle her giggles at his pout whilst saying, "Not that kind cleaning baby, I need to sort out all of my clothes, and all of your ones that are too small, so I can see what I need to buy for you. And you know that if you stay here, you'll find a way of keeping all of your clothes, even the ones you don't need."

"Ok then." Satisfied with the answer, a smile returned to Jamie's face as he started to run towards Haley, just having to jump before he ran into the bed. As soon as he was close enough, he flung his arms around Haley's neck and hugging her as tight as possible.

"I love you, baby. Don't let anyone ever make you doubt that."

"I love you too, Mama."

Peyton was packing a few outfits into her bag, along with some for her family. When she left Tree Hill 5 years ago, she never thought that in the first place she went; she would find the man and his daughter that had left a year earlier. After everyone found out what Nathan had done to Haley, Peyton was the only one to talk to Nathan, to ask him how he was coping with everything. And deep down inside, she was still mad at Haley for leaving on tour. Haley broke Nathans heart, and then he returned the favour. But a part of her did feel horrible for Haley. Yet another Scott child was being raised without a father. And when Brooke found out about Peyton talking to Nathan, well, to say she was angry was a bit of an understatement. Peyton and Brook may have been best friends since they were 6, but Brooke still hadn't forgiven Peyton for everything with Lucas. And ever since then, Brooke and Haley had kept getting closer. Brooke even let Haley stay with her when she returned from tour. So when Brooke did find out, she said it was another way Peyton had betrayed her friends, and that she didn't want to see her anymore.

So she left. She got on the first bus out of there. Savannah, Georgia. That's were she ended up. She didn't really know why, but she remembered that's where Jake had taken Jenny, and she wondered if he was still there. He had always understood her. It hadn't take long for them to become friends again, and then a year after she moved to Savannah, she and Jake married. 2 years later, they had a baby boy. Michael Jacob Jagielski, younger sister to Jenny Jagielski, whom Peyton had legally adopted a week after her wedding.

As she finished packing, she joined her family in the car and they left for home.
