"Sounds good," said Nathan. Peyton handed him the keys.
"C'mon Luke, let's get going." said Peyton, grabbing Lucas's hand and pulling him to the truck.
They all drove to the beach house.
"Hey," said Haley and Nathan.
"Hey," said Lucas and Peyton.
"So, what do you all want to do?" asked Nathan.
"Girls?" asked Lucas.
"We don't know." said Peyton and Haley.
"Well... oh my god, someone's coming. Let's go." said Nathan, but it was too late. Dan and some woman that was like 30 walked in.
"Nathan, what are you doing here?" shouted Dan.
"Me, what are you doing here?" asked Nathan.
"Well, it's my beach house." said Dan.
"Well, you're also married to Mom still." said Nathan.
"What is he doing here?" Dan said pointing to Lucas.
"Uh... you mean, your son. Well, he's my friend." said Nathan.
"Well, I want you all out," said Dan.
"C'mon Nathan, calm down." said Lucas.
"This isn't going to look to good in the custody case for you, Dan." said Nathan.
"Well, it's not nearly as bad as what you don't know about your mom. You don't know what I'm talking about? Ask her. If you don't come live with me, I will tell her secrets in court" said Dan.
"C'mon Lucas, Haley, and Peyton." said Nathan.
Nathan took Lucas's truck to go ask his mom what Dan was talking about. Lucas took Peyotn and Haley to his room. His mom wouldn't be home until way after school ends.
**Nathan and Deb**
"Nathan, what are you doing here, Nathan?" asked Deb.
"Mom, what does Dad mean when he said you did something bad?" asked Nathan.
"Sweetie, I..." said Deb.
"Tell me, Mom. Or I'll live with Dad." said Nathan.
"Well, when me and your dad were at rough times, I met this guy, you were at summer camp at the time. It was a few years ago." said Deb.
"Dad said you were on a business trip." said Nathan.
"Yeah, and when I realized I might lose you, I called it off, and came back." said Deb.
"No, you came back when your fling ended." said Nathan, storming out of the house.
**Nathan and Haley at Haley's house**
"I don't wanna live with my mom and I can't live with my dad. There is nothing I can do." said Nathan.
"Well, there is something." said Haley.
**Nate and Luke and Karen**
"Mrs. Roe, I know this is alot, but, would you consider letting me move in. I am declaring an emancipation. My mom abandoned me once and you know who my dad is. You don't have to, but I would really appreciate it." said Nathan.
"Yes," said Karen. "I will, but the emancipation will have to go through first. Although, I am sure, you having a place to go will help. You're okay with this Lucas?"
"Yeah, of course." said Lucas.
"Thanks Mrs. Roe." said Nathan.
"Call me Karen. I mean you will probably be living here the next two years of your life." said Karen.
"Thanks Karen." said Nathan.
**Nathan and Deb**
"Here you are." said Nathan handing his mom the emancipation.
"What's this?" asked Deb opening it.
"I'm petioning emancipation. The lawyer says I have a case that I will no doubtedly win. How does it feel to be abandoned." said Nathan, walking to the door.
"Wait, Nathan." said Deb.
"What do you want?" asked Nathan.
"You can't live on your own." said Deb.
"I know, I'm gonna go live with Karen and Lucas." said Nathan, leaving.
**Dan and Deb**
"Deb, what is it?" Dan asked.
"He's leaving us, and I can't say I blame him." said Deb.
"Wait, who's leaving?" asked Dan.
"Nathan. He's going to live with Karen and Lucas." said Deb.
"He can't," said Dan.
"You don't understand, he can and with all the stuff about us, he is definitely gonna get the emancipation passed." said Deb.
**3 days Later**
"Mr. Scott, it's passed. You can move in with Ms. Roe today. One hitch though." said Nathan's lawyer.
"What?" asked Nathan.
"Well, Mrs. Roe is gonna have to adopt you." said Nathan's lawyer.
"I'll talk to her." said Nathan.
"Well, she'll need to sign where the x's are." said Nathan's lawyer, handing him some papers.
"Okay, thanks," said Nathan.
He drove to his new home. Karen was sitting out on the porch.
"Hi, Nathan, is everything alright?" asked Karen.
"I don't think I can live here." said Nathan.
"Why?" asked Karen.
"Cuz you'd need to adopt me and I couldn't ask that of you," said Nathan.
"I will Nathan. Do I need to sign something?" asked Karen.
"Uh, you will, then read and sign these." said Nathan. He handed her the papers. "Thanks Karen."
"Your welcome." said Karen.
"Is Lucas home?" asked Nathan.
"Sorry, no, he's out with Peyton. But Haley's here." said Karen.
"Thanks." said Nathan.
**Lucas and Peyton**
"Peyton, I love you." said Lucas.
"I love you, too," said Peyton.
"So, what do you wanna do?" asked Lucas.
"Uh, you wanna go to Tim's party?" asked Peyton.
"Sure, why not. Are Nathan and Haley going?" asked Lucas.
"I am not sure. Call your house, I think Nathan and Haley are there." said Peyton.
He called and found out that they are going.
"Yeah, they are." said Lucas.
"Well, let's go," said Peyton. She kissed his neck.
"That is definitely no way to get me to go, it makes me wanna stay." said Lucas.
"C'mon," laughed Peyton.
"Alright, I'm coming." said Lucas.
**Tim's Party**
"You wanna drink?" Tim asked Peyton and Lucas.
"Yeah," said Peyton.
"No thanks." said Lucas.
"Well, that's up to you, come see me when you want one." said Tim.
"Will do, thanks man." said Lucas.
They all turned around when they heard Brooke's voice saying,"Anyone up for a game of "I Never"?"
Brooke, Tim, Haley, Nathan, Peyton, Lucas, Theresa, and Ashley were playing. Tim gave everyone a cup of beer and the game began.
"Okay, I'll start, I've never stole my best friends boyfriend. Peyton, drink up." said Brooke, and Peyton drank.
"My turn," said Peyton. "I've never been a slut that throws herself at any male within a 5 mile radius. Brooke, it's your turn to drink up."
"That's it." said Brooke, and she slapped Peyton. Peyton slapped back. Lucas held Peyton back and Tim did the same with Brooke.
"C'mon baby, let's go, okay, it'll be alright." Lucas whispered in Peyton's ear.
They went out to the car. Peyton said,"Wanna go to my house and have some real fun?"
"How could I pass that offer up. But first I am gonna make sure you're okay." said Lucas.
"I'm fine. Really." said Peyton.
"Okay, now let's go have that "fun" you were talking about," said Lucas.
"Of course." said Peyton.
They got to her house and started ripping their clothes off.
**Haley and Nathan**
"I wonder if Peyton is okay?" Haley asked.
"She'll be fine." said Nathan.
