Chapter Two: Friday Night Dinner Chaos

Haley Scott handed Nathan, her husband of almost nine years, a diaper bag. Micah would sleep right through this dinner if they were lucky. At three months that was all he did. But, seeing as Brooke's house always sounded like a tornado was ripping through it he would probably wake up. She looked down at the baby in her arms and smiled. He had light brown hair and huge brown eyes. So precious. Until he opened his mouth at least.

The first thing they saw when they walked into the house was a naked Paige sprawled out on the couch with a box of Lucky Charms on her stomach. She looked so cute, other than the fact that she had no clothes on. Actually she looked like Nathan.

"Hi Uncle Nate. Hi Haley. Hi Mikey."

She smiled at them before tuning and looking towards the kitchen. Nathan groaned knowing what was coming next.

"MOMMA, Tutorfamily is here!"

Micah started screaming. Nathan shook his head but smiled at the girl. She had spunk. Plus the kid was adorable. He ruffled her hair and walked into the kitchen. Brooke stood at the stove making God knows what.

"Hey boy. Looking for Lucas?" He shrugged.

"Not really. Where's the other two Oompa Loompa's?" Brooke rolled her eyes, a smile on her lips.

"Wyatt is trying to get his soldier out of the toilet and Hadyn is playing basketball with Lucas outside. He told me to send you out there. Peyton and Jake should be here soon."

Nathan nodded and looked at what she was cooking. It was a weird variation of Spaghetti.

"Can't we just order a pizza?" She swatted him playfully. Haley walked in with Micah, who was sucking on a bottle. Nathan walked over and pressed a kiss to the slightly frazzled looking woman.

"Hey babe. You want me to take him?" She smiled and shook her head and he took the hint and let going to sit with Paige and ask why she wasn't wearing any clothes. Haley looked at Brooke and sighed.

"How do you do it Brooke. I mean I have one and feel like I'm dying sometimes. You have three and every time I see you you're smiling."

Brooke put down a spatula and walked over. She put an arm around Haley and smiled.

"It gets better. Not easier, but better. Plus once they start playing by themselves you don't have to watch them every second. And you get to be more laid back. Look at me. One of my kids is playing with the plumbing and the other refuses to put clothes on. But neither of these things will hurt them. So, I'm fine with it."

Haley smiled and Brooke looked at the baby in her arms.

"Let me take him. You go rest. I think I hear Peyton now."

Nathan sat on the couch allowing Paige to shove marshmallows in his mouth. Jake walked in and just shook his head.

"Paige McKenzie, where are your clothes?"

Peyton tickled her goddaughter and smiled. Owen, who was almost one, squirmed to get down and she sat him next to Paige. It was hard holding him now that her stomach was swollen to twice its normal size. Jenny ran inside and kissed Nathan's cheek.

"Hey birthday girl, How does it feel to be ten?"

She shrugged and picked up Paige. Her long black hair fell down her shoulders in sheets and her huge brown eyes danced.

"Great. Lots of money. And cake."

Nathan laughed as she walked away dancing the toddler in her arms. She looked so much like Nikki it almost made Jake have to drag his eyes away from her sometimes. But, she acted more like Peyton, which was funny. Nikki hadn't been around since Jenny was two. A gift from God.

Owen stuck his fist in the cereal box and shoved a piece up his nose. Peyton just sighed and grabbed it out. The kid was insane. But so adorable. His hair was blond and curly, his eyes dark brown.

"Come on kid. Lets go find Wyatt. See if he can occupy you." Nathan laughed at her and Jake sat down.

"So, you see the new Lakers game last night?" Peyton rolled her eyes as she left the room. Some things never changed.

Lucas came in, his wifebeater clinging to him in sweat. Brooke grinned and looked at Micah who was asleep in Paige's old cradle. Hadyn had already run by them headed for Jenny, her idol. She thought it was so cool that the girl was ten. Brooke kissed Lucas softly.

"Hey, there's a whole bunch of people in this house Mrs. Scott."

She giggled and looked up into his eyes. Even after five years of marriage she couldn't get over him.

"Isn't there always. Love you."

Lucas grinned.

"I love you too."

Twenty minutes later they were all at the table. Paige had finally put on some Barbie underwear and a t shirt after Nathan pleaded with her. For some reason he was her favorite person. Haley and Nathan kissed quickly as she sat down.

"You okay Sweetie?"
She nodded smiling. Brooke smiled as everyone dug in. This place could be so crazy sometimes. She loved it.

"Hey guys, guess what?"

Everyone looked at her and she looked straight at Lucas. He had Owen on his lap. She felt the corners of her mouth tipping up.

"I'm pregnant."

Immediately the room fell silent. That is until something fell on the floor and they looked to see Paige, once again, naked.
