Chapter 2
One Week Later: Lucas asked Alicia to come with him to Tree Hill and she agrees. They are going to leave and are packing.
"So, are we gonna stay with your mom?" said Alicia, folding up a few shirts and tossing them into her suitcase. Lucas was lying on her bed, flipping through a book.
"Yeah", he said absentmindedly. He couldn't stop thinking about what Alicia would say when she heard about his past. Lucas was afraid she'd get mad.
"Are you okay", she said, sitting down next to him, rubbing his back.
"Yeah, yeah, I'm fine. I'm just nervous about going back to Tree Hill."
Alicia wrapped her arms around him and jokingly asked, "Why? Any ex- girlfriends I should know about?"
"Y-yeah, but I'm just nervous about seeing my mom again."
"Its okay", she said, kissing him gently. "Now, help me finish packing."
Two hours later, Lucas, Keith and Alicia were on their way to Tree Hill. Lucas and Alicia were in the back seat, fast asleep. It was midnight and Keith was getting tired. But he didn't stop, they were only half an hour away from Tree Hill and Keith was eager to see Karen. Finally, Keith drove up the Karen's driveway. He woke up Lucas and Alicia, grabbed the bags and the three of them went inside. "Keith? Lucas?" said Karen, hugging them both. "Hey mom, I've missed you. This is Alicia," said Lucas. Seeing the glances Keith and his mom were exchanging, he quickly said, "Why don't we give you and Keith some time to catch up? We'll go out and be back around 11, okay?" "Sure Luke", said Karen, chuckling. "It was nice meeting you Alicia." "Nice meeting you too Ms. Scott", said Alicia, not aware of the mistake she was making. Seeing the look on his mom's face, Lucas led Alicia out of the room quickly. "Bye mom."
Once they left the house, Lucas and Alicia headed to Haley's house. Haley answered the door in her pajamas and a confused look on her face. "Oh my gosh! Hey Lucas", she said, giving him a big hug. "Hey Haley. This is my girlfriend Alicia. She came with me to visit. We're going to be in town for a week." "Wow, this is so great. You know what, let me call Nathan and we can all go out somewhere." "Ok", said Lucas.
A half an hour later, the four of them were on their way to the bar downtown.
"So, how's it been in Charleston?" asked Haley in an eager voice.
"Actually, it's been great. Don't get me wrong, I miss you and my mom and everyone else here, but it's been nice, getting a change of scenery."
"Yeah, I bet it has."
The night went smoothly from there on. They played pool, girls against boys, and the girls won. Afterwards they stopped by at the café, where they found Keith and Karen having some coffee.
Seeing that Haley and Alicia were bonding, Nathan pulled Lucas aside.
"Does she know about Brooke and Peyton?" he asked, his voice barely above a whisper.
Lucas sighed. "No, but I'll tell her. Don't worry, I'll handle it."
"You better tell her, because if she sees one of them and finds out on her own, she's gonna be pissed at you. And it's not fair, she deserves to know."
"Yeah, I know."
They sat down next to Haley and Alicia, who were having a very interesting conversation about sports. It was funny to see Alicia educating Haley about the difference between basketball and baseball.
"No, a home-run is in baseball" Alicia said in an exasperated voice.
"Wait, so a foul in basketball is when you hit someone but it baseball it means you hit it out of bounds? Who came up with those crazy rules?"
Alicia smiled and said, "I don't know. But next time I see them, I'll be sure to tell them to make the rules easier just for Haley James."
Haley blushed. She saw Nathan smirking at her and playfully said, "Shut up."
They chatted until midnight, and Karen closed up.
Note: I didn't have Nathan and Haley married in my story.
