Okay, heres Chapter 21! I know what I want to do with this chapter, but I really need feedback!
It had been almost two months since Brooke's father died. Richard Davis' funeral was pretty somber. The Scott's attended along with Brooke's exteneded family and some business people he worked with. Brooke was sad, but she decided she was going to make the best out of what had happened by slowly letting her mother, Victoria back into her children's lives. It was now August and things as busy as ever in the Scott house. Logan had decided to give Megan another chance, but only as Dani's mother, not his girlfriend. Logan didnt want to go there anymore. He was honestly just fed up with the way Megan had been acting. Megan would play her little games, and Logan just got sick of it. Logan had started seeing another girl. Her name was Sara and she was a girl who babysat Dani a few times. She was 17 and was a senior at Tree Hill High, so she was only a year younger than Logan. The Scott's loved her, and she was a sweet girl and she was so good with Dani. Megan however hated the idea of Logan being with someone else, or the fact that Logan let her be around Dani. Maddie and Justin worked things out, and decided to stay married. Brooke and Nathan werent sure abut it, but they trusted their daughter's judgement, and as they got to know Justin, they found that he wasnt as bad. Maddie was about to begin her freshman year at NCState. Since she was married, she didnt have to live on campus and since Justin was going to be a junior year there they decided to get an apartment together. Natalie was a junior at Tree Hill High while Katie and Addie were begining their freshman year. Josh was starting middle school, and Izzy would be starting kindergarten.
Brooke and Nathan both paid for apartments for the twins. Logan and Dani live in Tree Hill, while Maddie and Justin live by campus. Brooke took both kids shopping for their new homes. Maddie and Justin start classes tomorrow. Maddie was in the kitchen cooking dinner for her and Justin while Justin was in the living room watching tv. Maddie finished up the spaghetti and took a plate and a beer to her husband. "Thanks babe." Justin said. Maddie went back and got a plate for herself and a bottle of water. Maddie sat next to Justin and kissed him on the cheek before they both began eating. "What time is your first class tomorrow?" Justin asked Maddie. Maddie moved herself so she could see the coffee table. She looked at her schedule. "I have English 101 Honors at 10 am." Maddie told him. "What about you?" She asked him. "I have one of my poly sci classes, but not until 12." Justin told her. Justin was a political science major, while Maddie was majoring in Elementary Education. Maddie picked up her schedule and his. "Well, we're both done at 4, so thats good." Justin told her as he looked at the papers. Justin kissed his wife. They finished up eating and watched tv for a little bit. "Wait, I have cheer practice until 7 tomorrow. They we should go for a walk or something." Maddie told him. "Okay, I'll meet you outside the practice field." Justin told her. Maddie and Justin hungout on the couch for a bit before going to sleep.
Logan was in his apartment feeding Dani. He put her bottle in the sink and saw that she was asleep. Logan put her in her crib and went back into the living room. He saw he had a bunch of mail he hasnt gotten to opening, so he started going through it. The first piece of mail was hospital bill from last month when Dani had a fever. The second piece was a letter. He opened it and saw it was a petition for full custody from Megan. As he read it his heart sank. She was trying to take their daughter away from him. Logan wasnt going to let it happen. The third piece of mail was from the army. Logan forgot for a second that he was a soldier. He opened it and read the letter. It informed him that he was being deployed September 2nd. Logan sighed. He knew it could happen, but he kind of hoped it wouldnt, because of Dani. Logan knew he had to tell his parents about all this stuff but he would wait until the morning. He also wanted to talk to Maddie. She was his twin, but she was also his best friend and she was always there to talk to. Logan would call her tomorrow. He turned the lights off and went into his bedroom and went to sleep with a heavy mind.
The next morning was the first day of school for the younger Scott children. Brooke had gotten Natalie, Katie and Josh up. She waited until the others left to wake Izzy up. Natalie was excited about school, because it was her junior year. She was an upperclassmen now. Natalie decided to wear a pair of jeans and a cropped tshirt that was blue. She wore her hair up in a ponytail. Katie decided on a jean skirt and a tanktop with a jacket over it. Katie was nervous about starting high school but she had Addie and Natalie.
The girls came down the stairs and Nathan was making them breakfast. "Hey girls." Nate said as he handed them each a plate with pancakes and bacon on them. The girls sat down and began eating. Josh came down and got a plate from his dad as well. "I hope you all have a good day." He told them. Natalie grabbed her keys and the three of them left. About an hour later Brooke came down the stairs holding Hayley and Izzy was standing in front of her. "Daddys! Did you saves me some panachakes?" Izzy asked her father. Brooke had dressed her daughter in a pair of new dark blue jeans that had butterflies on the butt pockets and she was wearing a purple shirt with butterflies to match. Brooke left her naturally curled hair curly and put half of it in a ponytail while leaving the rest down.
"Yes pumpkin." Nathan said as he handed her the plate. "Since it's your first day of school ever, you even got chocolate chips." Nathan told her as Brooke handed Hayley to Nathan and put Izzy in the chair. Brooke walked over to Nathan.
"I cant believe shes going to kindergarten." Brooke said. "But I will not cry, I told myself I would not cry." She told him.
"Brooke she'll be fine." He said as he kissed her on the forehead. "Have you heard from our oldest two?" Nathan asked her.
"No, but Maddie has class, and Logan will probably be over later." Brooke said. "Okay monkey, Daddy and I decided that since it's your first day, we're both gonna take you, how does that sound?" Brooke asked her.
"Nos!! We cant leave Hayleys here by herself!!!!" Izzy said.
Nathan and Brooke laughed. "Izzy, she's coming too." Brooke said.
"Oh, okays." Izzy said as she hopped of the chair. "Mommy where's my backpack?" Izzy asked her mom as Nathan helped her put her shoes on." Brooke was packing her lunch while holding Hayley. "On the door baby girl." Brooke said to her little one as she closed the lunch box. Izzy got her backpack and her parents followed her out the door.
Natalie dropped Josh off at the middle school, and headed to the high school with Katie. Natalie parked at the girls got out. "Do you need help finding your homeroom?" Natalie asked her sister. "No, I have it with Addie, so we're just gonna go find it together. Thanks though sis." Katie said. Since homerooms were by grade and last name, Addie and Katie were both in the freshman S homeroom.
"Okay, I'll see ya at lunch." Natalie said as she went to find some of her friends.
Katie went over to one of the table's outside and waited for her cousin. Katie was sitting there waiting when she could tell someone was sitting next to her. She looked over and saw it was a guy. Katie thought he was hot. He looked at her. He has shaggy brown hair and she could see a skateboard next to him on the ground.
"Hey, I'm Alex." He told her. "Katie." She said. "So are you a freshman?" He asked her.
"Yeah, you?" She asked him. "Yep." He said. "Well, I guess I'll see you around." Alex told her as he got up. Just as he walked away Addie sat down in his spot. "5 minutes into high school and you already have a guy. Im jealous." Addie said with a laugh. "Come on, lets go." Addie said as they walked to homeroom.
Maddie had gotten to her classes and now it was 4:30. She had practice until 7. Maddie had time to go change real quick so she did the went to the practice field. Massie was stretching when the couches came up. "Okay girls, when I call your name, come get your information packet." The head coach said. Maddie was streching when she listened to the names. A girl sat next to Maddie.
"Hi, Im Morgan." She told Maddie. "Are you a freshman?" Morgan asked her.
"Yeah, my names Maddie. Are you?" She asked her. "Yep. Where are you from?" Morgan asked her.
"Tree Hill, its like 2 hours away." Maddie told her.
"Really? My mom told me I have family there. My father kind of ditched my mom when she was pregnant, so I've never been there." She told Maddie.
"Yeah, that apparently happens a lot in tree hill. My dad's dad ditched my uncles mom for his mom, but now hes like okay with everyone its wierd." Maddie laughed. "Im sorry your dad did that though." Maddie said.
"It's cool." Morgan said. "You seem cool, we should hangout. I could use some friends. We could go scope out boys." Morgan laughed.
"We can hangout, but I have a boy." Maddie told her laughing.
"Really? How long have you been dating?" Morgan asked.
"Actually, we're married and have been for a few months." Maddie told her.
"Aww. thats really cool." Morgan said.
"Madeline Scott." The couch called. Maddie went up to get it and Morgan had a suprised look on her face. When Maddie came back Morgan looked at her. "Your last name is Scott?" Morgan asked her.
"Yeah, why?" Maddie said. Then Morgan's name was called. "Morgan Scott." The coach said. When Morgan came back Maddie looked back at her. "Your last name is Scott too?" Maddie asked. "Wait, you said you have family in tree hill?" Maddie said. "Who's your father?" She asked him.
"Dan Scott." Morgan said.
"Oh my god." Maddie said. "Well, I guess that means you're my aunt." Maddie told her. "He's my grandfather, my dad's dad." Maddie told her.
"Wow." Morgan said.
After cheer practice Maddie and Morgan made plans to hangout. Maddie was talking to Morgan when she spotted Justin. "Okay, theres the hubby. I'll see you tomorrow." Maddie told her.
"Are you going to tell anyone we're related?" Morgan asked.
"I was going to tell my dad." Maddie told her. "Then tomorrow I'll fill you in on who everyone is." She said. Maddie went over to Justin and kissed him.
"Hey, I see you made friends, thats cool." Justin said.
"Um yeah, shes apparently my aunt. Grandpa Dan is her father." She told him.
"Wow. Really?" He said. "That's weird, but cool i guess." Justin said. "Wanna go get food?" He asked as he took her hand.
"yes please." She said. Maddie was still in her cheer shorts and and a tshirt, but she didnt care how she looked she was hungry. Maddie and Justin were walking and when they got to his truck she threw he gym bag in the backseat and climbed in. She took her phone out and texted her dad and Logan.
"Dan Scott Strikes again! Call me!" She sent it to them and closed her phone.
"So, how were classes?" He asked her.
"They were okay, I missed you." She told him
I missed you too." He said as he drove off. "Ruby Tuesdays?" He asked her and she replied with a nod and he headed there.
Logan had walked into his parents house. His siblings were scattered around the house doing various things but his parents were in the kitchen. "Hey Logan." Brooke said as she picked Dani up."
"Mom, Dad I have to show you guys some stuff." He told his parents. He handed his mom the letter about Megan, and he handed his father the one about war. They three of them talked for a while about everything. Brooke was upset, but she was proud of Logan too. "We arent letting Megan get custody, and we'll watch her while you're overseas." His parents told him. They were talking when Nathan and Logan both got the text.
"Umm.." Logan started. Brooke looked over Nathan's shoulder. "Did he kill someone else?" Brooke asked.
Nathan dialed his daughters number and before he could talk she blurted out. "Grandpa Dan has a daughter." She told her father who put the phone on speaker. Her parents and brother looked shocked and confused.
