Scott's Beach House Kitchen
"Why did Nathan run after her?" Theresa whined to Lucas and Peyton.
"Holy S.hit Theresa shut up, i've had to hear Gina complain all day and now that shes finally shut up i have to hear you, if your gonna l3itch and moan then go do it to someone else." Lucas said out of frustration, the truth was he didn't car if Theresa or his sister liked the Haley and Brooke, he wanted to be alone with Peyton and his little outburst would get her out of the Kitchen and him alone with Peyton.
"God what crawled up your a.ss and died" Theresa said shocked that Luke flipped on her like that.
"Tee, hes right, all you have been doing is l3itching about them and you don't know them, i personally like them and i don't wanna hear you so Luke's right go l3itch and moan to someone else." Peyton added also having a little hope that Lucas wanted to be alone with her, at lunch today Gina had told her that Lucas was asking about her, and the truth was she's had a crush on him since like the 6 grade.
Theresa rolled her eyes and said "Fine, whatever im going to find Chrissy." as she walked away
"God, i thought we'd never get her to shut up" Peyton laughed nervously
"Yea, i know." Lucas agreed "So whats up with you Peyt, why haven't you been in the partying mood tonight?" Lucas asked her noticing that she didn't seem to be having a good time tonight.
"I don't know, I guess i've just been trying to keep the peace between Brooke, Haley and Theresa" Peyton replied
"Trying to keep the peace between Brooke, Haley and Theresa" Lucas relayed back to her "I see, so whats up why have you been so...Nice to them, i mean usually we treat new people the s.hit and all of a sudden you accept them with open arms." Lucas said to Peyton not fully understanding why she was being so nice, it really didn't matter to him though, they were cute and they would probably fit in with us he thought to himself.
"Luke, there nice girls, and i mean they just walked up to us in the gym and were like hi and i dunno if i was new i probably wouldn't have done that, it took balls you know what i mean." Peyton tried to explain to him.
"I know what you mean, it really doesn't matter to me, but i think my brother see's something he likes." Lucas said mentally noting how his brother ran after that Haley chick.
"Yea maybe, what about you, you see anything you like with them?" Peyton asked hoping he didn't see anything in either one of them, because Gina told her about Lucas asking about her before they even met these girls.
"I mean yea there cute, but i don't see anything i like, besides Jake called dibs on Brooke and Nate seems to have a thing for Haley." Lucas told her truthfully
"Oh, so if Jake didn't call Dibs on her and Nate didn't have a thing for Haley, you would be interested in them right?" Peyton asked hoping he would say no.
"Not really, i kinda had my eye on someone else." Lucas told her, he meant her and he wondered if she knew that, and if she did how would she react.
"i see, so who's the lucky girl?" Peyton asked with a nervous smile on her face, increasing hoping he would say her.
This is it, Lucas thought to himself....This is my opportunity to tell her how i fell, "She happens to be----" before he could finish saying she happens to be you he was cut off by Nathan screaming "LUKE"
"Nate, whats up?" Lucas asked his brother disappointed that he couldn't tell Peyton how he felt, but worried about his brother at the same time
"Why don't you ask your sister" Nathan said with anger seeping through his words
"Gina, whats he talking about?" Lucas turned to his little sister
"Umm, i, well see Luke" Gina paused and turned to Nate "Please don't make me do this?" She begged her brother, she didn't want to piss off both of them, the truth was she loved her big brothers, but when they were pissed they were scary.
"Fine" Nathan said giving in to his baby sisters pleading eyes. "So me and Haley are walking back from the beach and i decided to take the back to come in the house, and what do i see OUR little sister kissing Steve, like really going at it" Nathan told his brother disgusted by reliving what she happened with his sister.
"She what" Lucas said all to calmly, which both Nathan and Gina knew was what he did before he fully went into physco big brother.
"Luke, do not freak out on me about this please." Gina begged her oldest brother
"Who said i was gonna flip out on you." Lucas retorted back to Gina as he and Nathan started walking to find Steve.
"Luke, i kissed him, he didn't kiss me" Gina yelled while her brothers were still in earshot.
"WHAT" Lucas spun around, now all angry pouring out at his sister "Why would you kiss him?" Lucas yelled
"Because i like him Lucas" Gina tried to make him understand
"Gina all he want is one thing, and out of respect for me and Luke he shouldn't be responding to your kiss, cause you might have kissed him but from what i saw he didn't object" Nathan yelled at Gina and then him and Luke walked away. Gina tried to follow them, but Peyton held her back.
"Gina, let them go, they wont go crazy if your not there. i think if they see you they might kill him" Peyton told Gina.
"Peyt, they don't understand i like him alot, and i know he likes me and im sick of being Lucas and Nathan Scott's little sister, why can i just be Gina Scott, i mean i love my brothers i do, but god i just want to be with Steve without my brothers going postal" Gina said as she started to tear, but she NEVER cried, and when she did it wasn't it public but right now she needed someone and Peyton was their.
"Oh, Gee come here" Peyton said as she hugged her.
"Thanks Peyt" Gina said while her head was in Peyton's shoulder.
Scott's Beach house backyard
"STEVE, WHAT THE F.UCK DID YOU KISS MY SISTER FOR" Lucas screamed at Steve
"Yo Luke, she kissed me and i was gonna pull away it lasted all of 5 seconds i swear." Steve lied, he didn't wanna lose Nathan and Lucas, and he didn't want to be cast out of the inner circle.
"Why did you respond?" Nathan asked Steve calmly
"I don't know, Nate it all happened so fast" Steve told half the truth.
"Steve, look we'll forget about it for now, but if you try anything with our sister thats it, just keep your distance from her" Luke warned him
"Ok, i swear i'll just keep my distance, im sorry guys." Steve told them
"Whatever" Nathan and Lucas said at the same time they were both to drunk and tired to deal with this.
Scott Home, The morning after
Lucas, Nathan and Gina are all walking out of their bedrooms, at 9am on Saturday morning, none of them are fully awake.
"Why the hell did mom wake us up so early for" Gina complained
"I don't know she said her and dad have to talk about something important" Lucas answered
"Maybe were moving." Nathan said still half asleep
"Oh my god Nathan that's so not funny." Gina gasped
"Why cause you'd have to leave your boyfriend Steve?" Nathan sarcastically asked.
"Oh but then you'd have to leave your lil holly" Gina retorted with a smile
"Her names Haley." Nathan corrected her, but when he realized he was correcting her he quickly added "Not that it matters"
"Right, Nate you ran after the girl at the party." Lucas said reminding his brother he was there when Nathan went after Haley.
"Shut up, lets go downstairs" Nathan said as he walked towards the stairs with his brother and sister following
As soon as the three reached downstairs and sat down on the couch Gina yelled "ARE WE MOVING?"
"No, Gina we are not moving" Dan told his daughter, although he wished it was as simple as that.
"So whats going on, why did you wake us up at 9 o'clock in the morning?" Lucas complained
"Well, i dont know how to say this so im just going to come right out with it" Deb said "Karen came to the diner last night, she's visiting, i dont know who because her parents moved along time ago, but none the less she is back, and she told me she was gonna stop by your next game, i told her not to but i dont know why shes here or what she wants, i know none of you know what she looks like but if she comes up to any of you please dont talk to her." Deb let out in one breath, fighting back all the emotion she left out last night.
"Wait, Karen Roe?" Nathan said, recalling is conversation with Haley last night
"Yes, Karen Roe" Dan said "Lucas, Son are you ok?" Dan asked his oldest son who hadn't said anything at all
"Yea, yea im fine why should this bother me i never knew her and i dont plan on it." Lucas said
"Mom, who's Karen Roe?" Gina questioned her mom. The room fell silent, the last time they had talked about this Gina was 8, she didn't really remember
"Shes my birth mom." Lucas said in a whisper, when he said this Deb flinched and he saw it.
"Oh, i forgot" Gina said as she started to remember that Karen was the bitch who left her brother to be with Keith Scott their fathers brother.
"So what does she want, Is....is she gonna take Lucas" Nathan stuttered afraid that she would try to take Luke back
"Sweetie, we dont know what she wants but she's not gonna take Lucas" Deb assured her youngest son
"No, no she cant take me, i mean it wont work, your my mom, you raised me" Lucas said looking at Deb, he started to fear that he would be taken away from his parents, and his brother and sister.
"Lucas, she cant take you, if worst comes to worst and she takes us to court, they will see what happened and wont make you leave your fathers home." Deb told her son "And me and your dad discussed if, before that happens we are going to try to get hold of Karen and get her to sign the adoption papers we have"
"Wait, you never signed adoption paper?" Lucas questioned his mom
"No we could never get hold of her, sweetie dont worry nothings going to change i promise" Deb tried to assure im and herself.
"Okay, are we done here?" Lucas asked
"Yes, Gina and Nathan you can leave, but do not blow this out of proportion kids, your mother and I would never let Lucas leave this family" Dan turned to Lucas as his other children went to their rooms "Do you understand that Luke, when she left you i promised myself that i would never let her back into your life, and i am going to keep that promise" Dan told his told his older son
"Yea Dad, i know" Lucas told his father, he just still couldn't believe what was going on
"I love you son" Dan said as he pulled Lucas into a hug, Lucas accepted the hug and said "I love you too dad" His father never showed emotion like this, and thats when it really hit him that this was a bigger deal then his parents were making it out to be, as he got out of his fathers embrace he walked over to Deb, hugged her and said "I love you mom, dont worry about me leaving" She returned the hugs and through tears due to the emotional night she had and now this she said "I know i love you too" And kissed him on the cheek then sent him upstairs.
The Docks
Nathan had to get out of his house so he decided to go the only place he could go to think the docks.
This is way to weird last night i tell Haley about whats going on and now the bitch who left my brother is back, what if she takes him away i mean i know my parents are saying she cant but still what if, i wouldnt know what to do. I've always had an older brother and i just would be so lost without Luke, i mean were a team on and off the court, Gina's probably flipping out because she really didnt remember everything. Luke god hes probably going crazy, and i dont know what to do to help him, god i mean atleast Gina's going through some what of the same thing im going through, but Lucas i cant even start to think what his going through... Nathan was broken out of his thoughts by a hand on his shoulder and a voice that asked "Penny for your thoughts?" he looked up, and it was Haley, he wanted to talk about it he did, but he hardly knew this girl.
"Its none of your business" Nathan retorted to her
"Oh, okay fine, i mean i thought we were friends but obviously i was wrong." Haley said as she started to walk away, she thought that they became friends last night when they talked about their lives to eachother
"No, Haley wait dont go" Nathan said, he didnt mean to act so harsh
"You sure you want me here" Haley asked, not wanting to bother him
"Im sure, but if you dont mind i dont want to talk about it right now, im still kinda trying to digest it myself" Nathan told her truthfully
"No problem, but if you want to talk im here for you....well i think you need to be alone so yea we exchanged numbers last night so call my cell if you wanna talk" Haley said as she started to walk away once again
"Wait, Haley i dont want to talk right now, but could you just stay here with me?" He asked her, he didnt want to be alone and when he was around Haley he felt this wonderful calm and he needed that right now.
"Of course, i'll stay Nathan" Haley said as she sat beside him and put her hand on his shoulder, she started to think she could really fall for this guy, but little did she know he was already falling for her.
Scott's Home, Gina's room
Gina sat on her bed writing in her diary about what was going on with her family.
Dear Diary
So i knew Lucas had a different mother but i guess i must have forgotten, i was only like 7 or 8 when they told me and im lucky if i remember anything from last week let alone 6 or 7 years ago. I still dont know what this all means, but Lucas is my big brother and Nate asked if Karen was back to take Lucas and our mom said she cant, but what if she does what am i gonna do, i've always had 2 big brothers and what if she takes him and he has to move, i love Nate but i love Luke too, i need both of them and i know Nate needs Lucas, i dont know what to do, Is this gonna ruin our family? Oh god i need to go for a walk and digest everything because if i dont im gonna go completely crazy...Ha and to think 3 hours ago my biggest problem was Luke and Nate being mad at me because me and Steve kissed, god.....

The Front of Peytons house
(Lucas P.O.V)
Okay so i learn that Karen's back this morning and now im standing here ringing Peyton Sawyers door bell to talk to her, her parents are probably away so shes probably gonna answer the door, i hope.
"Lucas, what are doing here, its so early?" Peyton says to me and then i realize it was only 10:00 and it was a Saturday.
"S.hit im sorry, i didnt realize how early it is, im just gonna go" I tell her, but by the look in her eyes she looks like she doesn't want me to go and i hope she doesn't want me to go, god shes so pretty, even at 10 in the morning.
"No Luke its okay, im up now, whats going on are you okay?" She ask me with true concern
"No" I tell her honestly, im not okay Karen just came back im definitely not okay.
"Whats wrong?" She says as she leads me into her house and on to the coach
"Karen's back" I simply tell her, she was the only one out of our group that knew as much as me and Nate about the whole Karen thing, and then i see the anger in Peytons eyes and she says "WHAT, why did she come back here?"
"I dont know Peyton she went into my mothers diner and was like maybe i'll go to one of my sons games, its next Friday right? and my mom was like you dont have a son on the team, stay away from my son, blah blah blah then Karen was like oh i will, for now and my parents are like going postal their like if she comes near any of you meaning me Nate and Gee, were not allowed to say a word to her" I tell Peyton what my parents said, and the truth is if Karen came up i'd just walk away cause she means nothing to me
"How do you feel about?" Peyton asked me and i told her the truth "Im worried thats shes gonna try to take me away from my family" At this Peytons eyes widen and i continue "but my parents told me that wont happen, and if she did come up to me i'd probably just walk away cause i have no need to talk to her, i have a mother already i dont need another one." i finish
Peyton looks at me with sympathy and says "Your parents would never let her take you away from them" and i know this so i just simply nod my head and ask her
"If you dont mind i dont want to talk about this anymore, i really dont wanna go home" Then i ask "is it okay if i stay here for awhile?" and before i knew it Peyton threw her arms around me and kissed me, and i have been waiting for this for so long so i kiss her back and i knew she meant it when she kissed me and i never meant it more, then she pulls away and says
"Of course you can stay here" And lays her head on my shoulder and as i hold her and this just feels so perfect.
