I really don't want to name teams real or fake so just know it's a pro team.

Chapter Six

Lucas didn't change his mind. He watched Nathan and Haley go off together, and Brooke had been accepted at the state university. Instead, During the day he worked and then at night he would drop Jenny and Phoenix off at the child care center while he went to school at night. However, a friend he had met at school, had told him about a rec and comp team for adults.

He'd been playing with the team for a few months when the coach called him to stay after a game one day.

"Lucas, this is a scouting agent and he'd like to talk to you."

The tall balding man started to talk and the coach left them, "Mr. Scott, I don't usually come rec games like this, especially with players in your position, but he said he would only sign if I at least took a look at you. I'm glad I listened to him. I think the two of you are just what our team needs."

Soon it was agreed. ANd they even agreed to work with Lucas on areas that concerned Jenny and Phoenix.

As the man left Lucas asked,

"WHo exactly was it who told you to take a look at me?"

"A Nathan Scott, your brother."

He should have known.

That night, Lucas loaded the two kids into the car and drove to New York then straight to the married students dorms. Unbucked Jenny and unlatched Phoenix's carrier/carseat.

He knocked on the door.

Nathan answered.

with his free hand Lucas wrapped it around the unsuspecting and somewhat startled Nathan.

"Thanks, bro."

"Hey, I couldn't stand by and watch as your dream died. Besides, what are brothers for?"

"Funny, nearly four years ago you would answered 'to teach the other a lesson' actually you probably would have pummled the other." A voice came from behind Nathan.

Lucas chuckled, "Hey Haley."

Nathan turned to his wife, "Your right--as always, but a lot has changed in the last four years old."

And as if to prove a point, Lucas felt a tug on his shorts, he looked down, Jenny looked up.

"Uncle Lucas, I gotta potty."

Haley reached down, "Oh what a good girl, how about I show you where the potty is and let uncle Lucas and Nathan talk?"

"AHLLLLright."

Lucas and Nathan stared at each other.

"Are you going to move up here?"

"See there's the thing, part of the whole thing was that I stayed at the apartment so Jenny wouldn't get over stressed, but I think it's time, you know?"

Nathan nodded.

"We've been looking for places too, Haley wants to find somewhere outside here...there's just not enough space here."

Lucas looked around the dorm--if anything there was too much space.

Were they?
