Authors Note: its moving day. And everyone is moving brooke hasn't told anyone but she has already set up the meeting with Gabe. She doesn't want anyone to know, but come on that wouldn't be a fun story now would it......

"Come on boys get your asses down here and help with the rest of the boxes!!!" Peyton yelled to the guys who were on the 2nd floor, looking for there Cd's. "Ahhh, here we go." Nathan said putting the CD box down beside the player and popped one in. Music suddenly started playing. They all headed back down, and each took two boxes, while the girls started with the little furniture (bed frames, mattresses, etc.) By 3:00 in the afternoon they were finished with moving everything and they all started to head into the house to start unpacking when Heather, heard footsteps behind her, with the other 6 people in front of her she figured it was Rover, she hadn't seen him since 8:00 that morning when the brought the first load over and he took off the back of the house. She turned around ready to greet the dog, when she saw beautiful brown eyes, looking at her...beautiful brown eyes that didn't belong to her dog. "Hi." Said the cute stranger. Heather suddenly recognized him. He was the guy from the basketball courts the other night. "Hi." She replied, hoping that everyone had went ahead into the house, and hadn't noticed she was outside still. No such luck. "Who is your friend Heather?" asked Nathan coming up from behind Heather. She flinched at the sound of her name, she didn't want this stranger to know her name. "I don't know who he is." Nathan looked at the boy, and sized him up, he had to be about 18 or 19 years old. "I'm Seth, Your daughter is an excellent basketball player." Said Seth in his nicest voice. Nathan, had thought about correcting him on Heather being his daughter but decided to use that mistake to his advantage. "Thank you" Heather feeling suddenly brave, stood up a little straighter, wich was hard considering she was already as straight as a flagpole. "What are you doing here?" She asked Seth. He smiled at her, and she felt her knees buckle. She did her best, to be strong. "No, I was gonna ask you the same thing. I live over there." He turned and pointed at the house across the street. OH Shit!! Heather couldn't believe it.. besides her parents hating her and being really poor in NYC, she had always had good luck, got good grades. Why did that have to change now? "Oh, I didn't know that..." She tried to smile at him but couldn't get herself to do it. Nathan thankfully jumped in at that time, sensing her uneasiness. My name is Nathan, Nathan Scott. This is Heather James." He then noticed everyone was now gathered around and began to introduce everyone. "The blond girl is Peyton, that's her husband Jake. That is Brooke and her husband Lucas. And this is Haley." He finished with putting his arm around Haley's shoulders. "Your wife?" Seth guessed. Nathan smiled at the sound of that. "Not yet." He answered, and felt Haley tense beside him, he decided not to mention it right now. Everyone stood there in an awkward silence wandering what was going on. Seth finally broke the silence. "Well I guess I should go. I was just coming over to introduce myself and to see if you wanted to go play a game of basketball tonight?" He said looking hopefully at Heather. "Sure." Seth sighed with relief. "Great, i'll pick you up around 7:30? Oh and here, you left this at the courts. Bye." He turned and jogged off to his house. Heather looked down at her what he had put in her hands and started to laugh. "I'm gonna go start unpacking." She turned and headed off to the house, running up the stairs to her room, she looked at the piece of paper in her hand: when you're alone call me, 731-8953.

Seth

Heather started unpacking, hanging up all her clothes and setting up her bed throwing all her old stuffed animals into her closet in a box. Setting up her bookcase, and all her little knick knacks. Then she started to set up her computer. She still didn't believe that Nathan had bought her a computer. Once she set that up, it was 6:00, She picked up her phone and dialed the number she spent 15 minutes memorizing. When he answered, she didn't know what to do. "Hello?" Heather stood there in a minute then realized she wasn't talking. "Hi, you know I don't remember ever having a piece of paper that had some guy I don't eve know's phone number on it." Said Heather. Seth laughed, "Are you sure? Well my mistake, but since you now have my number your obligated to call. So we still on for some basketball tonight?" Heather could tell he was smiling. She started to feel more relaxed around him. "Yeah Sure, umm just so you know Nathan isn't my dad." She couldn't stop thinking about that comment. That Seth had made. It made her feel somewhat happy when Nathan didn't correct him. "Oh, sorry.. is he your brother?" Asked Seth. Heather smiled, brother yeah that was more like it. "Sort of, Haley is my sister and her and Nathan are going out. My Parents are dead. But I was living with my sister before that happened. It's a long story." Seth, frowned," I'm sorry to hear about your parents did they live here what were there names?" Heather grinned at his concern. "Mary and Johnny James." Seth's Heart stopped. NO, that can't be true. No way. "wow im really sorry to hear about that, listen ill pick you up tonight at 7:00 ok? Talk to you then bye." With that he hung up. Heather hung up the phone to and started to get on the computer wondering what had made Seth get off in such a hurry.

Meanwhile at Seth's house, he was running through his halls to his brothers room. "We've got a problem Gabe"
