Bright Ideas


As Haley stood there peering out the window, looking down at all the reporters. She shook her head, this wasn't the life she wanted for her daughter. There had to be someway for her to get them to go away. Haley walked over and picked up Kate's phone and called Brooke since Haley didn't have Brooke's number.

"Hello my favorite Scott" Brooke answered her phone

"Sorry Brooke, it's me Haley"

"On Kate's phone?" Brooke questioned

"Yeah, we've got a little situation"

"What kind of situation?"

"Reporters outside of my Hotel"

"And Kate's there"

"Yeah, I bet it's in the papers"

"Okay, um get Kate ready to go, don't tell her anything. I'll get them to believe she's at the store. That should give you enough time to get out of the Hotel. And to school where you guys are safe" Brooke explained

"That's a really good idea, Tigger"

"Tigger, no ones called me that for years"

"I'm sorry about that"

"Its fine, Bye Tutor Mom"

"Bye"


Haley walked over to where Kate was sleeping, she looked so peaceful. "Kate, it's time to wake up" Haley said softly, a few seconds later Kate practically jumped out of bed.

"Morning" Kate said as she got up and headed for the bathroom

"Morning sleepy head"

"It's only six thirty" Kate replied from the closed door of the bathroom

"Hey if I'm up everybody's up" Haley said

"Whatever" Kate said when she finally emerged from the bathroom having showered and gotten dressed in her cheer uniform

"You got a game tonight?" Haley asked

"Midnight Madness"

"Oh right the official start of the season, well I'll be there watching"

"Okay" Kate replied opening the small fridge a grabbing a bottle of water

"That's not breakfast"

"But, I'm not hungry"

"Would you father make you eat something"

"Yes"

"Then eat something"

"Fine" Kate went back and grabbed an apple

Haley noticed the newspaper on the floor by the door, she picked it up and it read


HALEY JAMES JR.?! KAITLYN BROOKE SCOTT IS HALEY JAMES DAUGHTER!

By: Isabelle Jones

After leaving sixteen years ago, Haley James is back to Tree Hill. But why is she? She had an amazing career but one night she gave it all up. After some careful research, and a couple visits to Miss. James' Hotel. I found the reason why she had come back to this small town and her name is Kaitlyn Brooke Scott. It seems to be the reasoning. In the press Haley was always brought up as a nice innocent pop star, with no bad side. Well I guess everything we knew about Haley James was wrong. Because looking into Kaitlyn Scott's life, Haley has never been evident until now. Kaitlyn Scott was raised by her father Nathan Scott. Kaitlyn is sixteen years old, and is a total look alike to Haley. I can't believe no one else has ever seen it before. My source tells me that Haley and Kaitlyn are getting along, and Father Nathan Scott has been nowhere to be found.

So let me tell you all something, everybody lies. Even sweet Haley James, so for all you reading this article I hope your intrigued to know how Kaitlyn made it through life without being found out. So as to my research, Kaitlyn is a cheerleader for the Tree Hill ravens which is quiet interesting. READ MORE ON PAGE 4b.


Haley couldn't believe it Kate's life was going to change so much now because of Haley's little mistake

"Whatcha reading?" Kate asked taking a bite out of an apple

"Do you really want to know?" Haley asked

"That depends, is it about you?" Kate question

"Kind of"

"Well is it true, what they wrote?" Kate asked

"Yeah"

"Then sure, why the hell not"

"Because this article will change your life" Haley said handing the paper over to Kate. Haley watched as Kate read and how the grin on Kate's face vanished. Kate frantically flipped to the next part of the article.


KAITLYN BROOKE SCOTT! HALEY JAMES JR. CONTINUED

We are all very curious about Kaitlyn, she's never been heard of before and suddenly she seen everywhere with Miss. James. Miss James has recently taken a job at Tree Hill High School and is rumored to be Kaitlyn's English teacher. From what I've researched on the young lady, she is very much like Haley when Haley was her age. But there's something that gets me every time HOW DID HALEY JAMES LEAVE HER? Judging from some of Kaitlyn's classmates, she has had many issues with older females, clinging to them when they come into her life, and then she runs them out. All because of little Miss Haley James. I truly wonder what Nathan Scott has to say about all this. He was the one that gave up everything for Kaitlyn and now is left with nothing because his daughter is with Haley James. Nathan Scott was supposed to be the next biggest NBA star. I wonder how much guilt Haley carries around with her.

"This is unbelievable I still live with my Dad. I didn't leave him" Kate said reaching for her phone.

"I'm so sorry Kate" Haley apologized

"It's fine Haley; it's not your fault. I knew people would eventually know"

"You're taking this so well"

"Well I guess I've had my whole life to prepare" Kate stared to dial her phone

"Kate what are you doing?" Haley asked

"I'm calling the reporter to get her story straight"

"And what might be her story?"

"Well, while you were on tour, I'd come visit and you'd sent me lots of things, but you kept me a secret so I could live a normal life, and not be known as Haley James Jr."

"Are you sure you want to lie?" Haley asked

"It's the only way to get them off your back about me" Kate put her phone up to the side of her head, and heard a loud beeping "lines busy I'll try again later"

"There also a whole bunch of reporters outside the Hotel waiting for you" Haley quickly stated

"Then I guess we should get going"

"Where?"

"To school, there's no way in hell I'm going to say anything, I'm just going to ignore them and they'll go away. It worked in the first grade with Chuck, let's just say I used to be a weird kid" Kate said grabbing her backpack and headed out of the room

"How did I get so lucky with such a great kid?" Haley asked

"That would be your genetics, go only help us when Dad's genes finally kick in. and I become a dumb ass" Kate laughed

"I know I shouldn't really say anything but language" Haley pointed out

"Oh I'm sorry. Dad was never really strict about it" Kate apologized

"That's okay, I just don't want to hear that stuff okay?" Haley stated, she noticed Kate playing with the ends of her hair, and looking around causally. "Are you okay?" Haley asked

"Yeah, I was just wondering why I chose to were the sluttiest thing I ever wear, the day I'm going to have to deal with stalkerazzi" Kate said as Haley and her got into the elevator.

"Trust me, that uniform looked a lot more slutty on me, when I had you in me" Haley said, Kate just laughed. As the two made there way through the lobby, Haley thought Brooke's plan had worked she didn't see anyone until they stepped out the front doors of the Hotel and were basically stormed by cameras and questions. All Haley said was "NO COMMENT" Kate had fallen silent until the two had made it to Haley's car.

"Wow, I don't think I've ever been asked that many questions in my life" Kate sighed

"You did really well, I'm surprised you didn't try to kill anyone, when they asked about you dad" Haley said as they pulled out of the parking lot

"Believe me, I wanted to"

"Easy there, we've already got one Scott, that's murderer"

"Who?" Kate asked. Haley hadn't realized that Kate probably didn't know who Dan was

"That's not important, right now. Let's just get to School" Haley said avoiding the subject.


Nathan paced around in his office at the school. He couldn't believe it, he let Kate spend one night with Haley and the whole planet now knows that Kate's her daughter. The words in the article burned in his mind Father Nathan Scott is nowhere near them at this point in time. Of course he was, he was just letting his daughter have time with the one person that could understand her better than he could. She's like a mini-Haley, like What the Hell. Of course she looks like her mother, genetics jeez when people became so stupid. Nathan was very worried about Kate; he didn't know how she would take it.

"Hey coach" Adam said walking into the office

"Hey Adam, what are you doing at school so early?" Nathan asked

"Well, my mom came running upstairs with the paper this morning, so I though that I should be at school early to support Kate. "

"Is that all?" Nathan asked

"And she's a great kisser" Adam joked

"Why do I let her date you?" Nathan asked

"Because I'm the best guy at this school" Adam smiled

"I guess, anyways. I know Whitey had basically promised you the captains spot, so I'd thought I'd make it official" Nathan spoke handing Adam his jersey with a "C" on it.

"Are you serious, juniors never make captain" Adam said in disbelieve

"Well considering on most of the seniors grades, and playing skills. None of them are ready to be captain and you are" Nathan replied

"Thanks Coach I won't let you down" Adam said as he turned out of Nathan's office

"Adam, it's nice that Kate can go to you when she has problems, but if she ever sleeps over at your house again I will cut off your balls" Nathan said

"Okay, Mr. Scott" Adam said walked down the hall

"Anything else?" Nathan asked

"Actually, I know how you and Miss. James are sharing Kate in all. And Kate says she loves the idea, but wouldn't it be easier if you all lived under one roof?" Adam asked

"How do you mean?"

"Well, that way you could both spend time with Kate together. I know it would mean a lot to her"

"That actually makes a lot of sense" Nathan replied


Adam left the locker room and dialed his phone.

"Hello" The voice said

"Hey Brooke, its Adam"

"Did you talk to him?" Brooke asked

"Yes"

"Did he buy it?"

"Like a little kid in a candy shop"

"Well thank you for your help to get Naley back together. But don't mention it to Kate she'd be heart broken if she didn't get to do something"

"How is this going to get them back together?" Adam asked

"Well first off I know Nathan and Haley. And once there under the same roof they won't be able to keep there hands off each other."


Haley and Kate arrived at school, both hoping that there was not going to be any reporters there, but there were. "Are you sure your okay with this?" Haley asked as she parked the car.

"Haley, I'm fine. I kind of feel like a weight has been lifted off my shoulder, like I don't have to keep it a secret anymore" Kate said reassuring Haley she was fine, and then Kate slowly opened the door. The two walked into the school, as they did. Kate saw Chelsea, her ex friend who called her out on her 'Mommy Issues' talking to the reporters. Great even more lies about me Kate thought. As Haley and Kate made there way through the hallway, Kate looked at the floor most of the time, until she felt an arm sling over her shoulder. Kate looked up as saw Adam she let out a sigh of relief, then the three entered into Haley's classroom and closed the door.

"I know people say high schools bad, but come on there looking at me like I have a third eye" Kate said

"Well I'd think you'd look super hot with a another eye" Adam winked

"Oh shut up" Kate said

"Kate, you just got to let people get used to the fact, then everything with go back to normal"

"Yeah, just ignore 'em babe"

"You mean them" Kate replied

"That's what I meant" Adam said wrapping his arms around Kate's waist. "Have I ever told you how stunning you look in a cheer uniform" Adam asked

"You may have suggested it" Kate smirked

"You've got to stop doing that smirk" Adam said looking down at her

"Well, this is just a little awkward, I'm just going to go and get some coffee, when I come back. I don't want to see any of this" Haley said before she quickly exited the classroom.

"Man, I totally forgot your mom was there" Adam stated

"Oh I though you knew"

"You just wanted me to seem like a horn dog"

"Just a little bit" Kate said smirking again, this time Adam captured his lips with hers, and Kate wrapped her arms around his neck. A few minutes later when air became an issue they both stopped, just as they had. Haley entered as if it was on cue.

"Oh I'm captain" Adam said

"Are you serious?" Kate asked

"Yeah, your Dad told me this morning"

"But Juniors never make captain, not even my dad"

"I know, but I'm one of the greats, I guess"

"Or my Dad just likes you"

"So Adam, I guess we haven't been formally introduced I'm Haley James, Kate's mother" Haley said

"Nice to meet you Haley, I'm Adam, Kate's Boyfriend" Adam said looking over at Kate with a smiled

"Hey everybody I'm Kate" Kate said with a smile

"What a tool" Adam said then felt a hard whack in his rib cage "OW"

"Don't call me a tool, Sweet cheeks"

"Dammit" Adam said under this breathe.

"What you thought I'd forget about it?" Kate asked playfully

"Yeah, I did. The guys are going to think were a cheesy couple" Adam whined

"Well you better get used to it we are a cheesy couple mister" Kate replied

The Bell rang. "Well it looks like I'm finally going to have to face my classmates" Kate said heading for the door, with Adam close behind her.

"Kate, if you're anything like your father. You will stand up for yourself" Haley said

'That's true, thanks Haley" Kate said as she exited

"Or you could skip?" Adam asked

"You know I'd never do something like that"

"It's was worth a shot, but if your mornings bad, she remember you'll see me in English" Adam said as they stopped in front of Kate's calculus class

"I'll see you later sweet cheeks" Kate said then she walked into the class.


Haley walked down the hallway to the gym, and into the boy's locker room. To Nathan's new found office. She walked in and slumped down into the seat. Nathan was sitting at the desk. "I'm sorry" She said

"What are you talking about Haley?" Nathan asked

"It's my fault the whole world knows that Kate's my daughter"

"It is none of our faults. Since she is your daughter, it can't be your fault" Nathan replied

"But, if she hadn't stayed with me. This mess would have never happened" Haley stated

"There actually maybe a problem with you staying at the hotel"

"I'm looking for a place" Haley explained

"No, you don't need to"

"What? You're not going to let me?" Haley asked

"No, you don't need to look for a place because I should have said this all along"

"What Nathan?" Haley asked

"Live with us Haley"

"Are you serious?" Haley asked

"Yes, the house basically has two separate wings, and I only use one side. That way we don't have to share Kate, with can both spend time with her. Plus then you don't have to worry about the world knowing about our problems" Nathan explained

"Where did you come up with this idea?" Haley asked

"Surprisingly enough Adam, he came in this morning saying how easy it would be if we both could spend time with Kate together"

"He is a great kid; I can see he brings out Kate's beautiful smile"

"Yeah, he has always had that affect on her"


Kate walked into English and sat down. "Can this day get any worse?" she sighed

Haley looked up and saw that Kate's hair was a mess; she must have been twirling the ends last class. Haley got up and walked over to Kate's Desk. "People been giving you trouble?" Haley asked

"A little bit, there all like. Abandoned child. Your mommy doesn't love you and all"

"It's going to be okay"

"I know, I try to not let it get to me. But it does, the way they talk about you and Dad. It drives me nuts"

"Well if this makes this better, Your Father said I could tell you. I'm moving in"

"Moving in where?" Kate asked

"Into your house"

"Are you serious? That's awesome. Finally someone to understand my homework" Kate joked

"You're a cute kid you know that" Haley said walking away

"Well your kind of a rock star" Kate replied
