The front door closed and Brooke ran down the stairs.
"So how was your meeting?"
"Good, where is everyone?"
"Tim's in his room doing something. Peyton's drawing and I was watching TV. So what are we gonna do Today?"
"We could unpack some more. There's nothing better to do."
"Ok, and were going to have to go to the market later, we need food."
"Ok I'm gonna go take a shower." Nathan said. He walked up the stairs and into his room.
------------------------------------------------------
"So how is he?"
"They don't know how long he's gonna last. Thanks for coming Jake."
"No problem. He's my cousin. I'll be here as long as I have to. Excuse me, I have to call Tree Hill and check in on Je…my parents"
"No problem. Take your time."
Jake left the hospital room and walked out to the lobby. He took out his cell phone and called Lucas.
"Hello"
"Hey Luke its Jake."
"Hey man. How's your cousin?"
"He's doing ok. They don't know if he's gonna make it through the weekend."
"I'm sorry."
"Its ok how's Jenny?"
"She's fine, she misses you."
"Can I talk to her?"
"Yeah." Lucas pulled the car over and got out of the car. He put the phone to Jenny's ear.
"Hey Baby, Its Daddy. I miss you. Be good for Uncle Luke. I'll be home as soon as I can. Your cousin is trying to get better. Pray that he dose. I love you and miss you. Give the phone back to Uncle Luke." Lucas took the phone off jenny's ear. "I was just checking in. Are you sure she's ok?"
"Jake, she's fine. Make sure you come home as soon as you can."
"Thanks Luke, send my love to everyone."
"Come home soon."
Jake hung up the phone. He started to walk back to his cousin's room when he was stopped by a voice behind him.
"How old is she?" Jake turned around and saw a young woman about his age sitting in a chair in the lobby.
"Excuse me?"
"Your daughter, how old is she?" Jake looked at her with a questioning look. "I heard you on the phone. Hi I'm Lesley."
"I'm Jake"
"You left her at home because your family doesn't know about her."
"Is it that obvious?"
"No, its just it seems like this has been your first time without her and that would be the only reason you would leave her with your friends."
"How did you know I left her with my friends?"
"If they were really related to you, they would be standing next to you."
"Ya, I guess." Jake said feeling weird about having a conversation with a complete stranger.
"So did your girlfriend die or leave you?"
"She left; her parties didn't fit in with having a baby."
"My boyfriend said he'd support me after he started college. Bastard hasn't called me in a year."
Jake sat down, "seems like we have something in common."

"Are you guys always here?" Lucas asked Skillz, Mouth, and Junk, as he walked into the café holding Jenny. Haley looked up from poring a cup of coffee. She walked over took Jenny from Lucas without saying a word. Lucas stood there wondering what had happened between him and his best friend. The person he used to tell everything to. Haley walked behind the counter and put Jenny in her play pen. Lucas sat down next to Skillz.
"So what did coach talk to ya 'bout?" Skillz asked
"Nothing really, just no to play games against your teammates and that we're gonna have a meeting in a couple weeks."
"That all, that's not that bad. He didn't yell at all?"
"Not really." Lucas said, as the faint sound of Jenny's tears filled the café.
"Lucas." Haley said. Lucas turned around and saw a tired looking Haley holding a crying Jenny. Lucas stood up and walked over to Haley. He took Jenny from her as he looked at her. But this wasn't just a look. This was a LOOK! He looked into her eyes and she looked back into his. Everything in there world stopped. This look said everything they hadn't said for the past couple months. That understanding, that care, that love, which had been missing from their friendship, was re-established in this look. This look said it all. Suddenly a tear of sorrow drifted out of Haley's eye. All was forgiven. They took one step toward each other and Lucas took one more to take Haley in a loving embrace.
The bell over the door rang and Karen walked into the café.
"Looks like the whole family's here." She said, looking around the café at Skillz, Junk, Mouth, Lucas, Haley, and Jenny.
"Not everyone." Haley said kissing Jenny's forehead.
"Talking about Jake he called ma a little while ago. He gives his love to everyone."
"How did he sound?" Karen asked.
"Tired. You can tell that he misses Jenny."
"Well of course he misses her. Haley your shift is done. You kids look like you need some fun."
"Are you sure Karen? I still have an hour left on my shift."
"Yeah I'm positive I've got Jenny. Go have some fun."
Lucas handed Jenny to Karen and kissed her cheek. He looked at Haley and walked out of the café after Skillz, Junk, and Mouth. Haley fallowed behind Lucas. Luke knew he had to talk to Haley about that morning.
"you guys want to go down to the river court?" Lucas asked.
"Naw, dawg I gotta go do some summer readin' crap or else I'm gonna be vistin' Haley in the tutoring center." Skillz said.
"I know what you mean. I'll see you guys later." Junk said and walked around the corner.
"Not that I don't love you and all Hales but I aint gonna let the ladies see me walking into no tutoring center. Peace." Skillz said and left.
"Mouth, you going to go read your summer reading book?"
"No, I have to go do some work on I'm gonna have to update the roster and change some things around. It should take me a couple hours, so I'm out. And Haley, I'm sorry about earlier at the court."
"NO problem Mouth, as long as Jenny's safe, that's all I care about." Mouth left after had assured him that everything was fine.
"I guess it's just us?" Luke said.
"Ya, well my mom asked me to pick up some stuff from the market, so if we go we can talk when we get to my house." Haley said.
"Well then, to the market."
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Nathan, Tim, Peyton, and Brooke sat in the kitchen Peyton was leaning against the open refrigerator door.
"We have nothing." She said
"I'll go get some stuff." Brooke said.
"I'll come with, I need to get out." Nathan said.
"Ok, well then, to the market"
