Brooke sat in the middle of her bed looking at old photos. In only three days she would be moving back to Tree Hill and in seven days she would be starting school at Tree Hill. Her whole life was there but after being gone for the entire summer she was sort of scared. Looking around her room the boxes were packed and all that was left out was a pair of clothes for the next few days and her computer.Brooke heard a ding and got up and went to her computer. It was Peyton.

"Hey P. Sawyer!" Brooke typed.

"Hey Tiger, Miss ya," Peyton replied. Which was quickly followed by, "Only 3 days I'm so excited for you to come home."

"I know, I'm kind of scared though," Brooke typed quickly with a frown across her face.

"Why :(" asked Peyton.

Looking at the computer she sighed and began to type. "One word Lucas."

"Brooke it'll be fine but I have to go luv ya, cant wait to see you." And with that said Peyton signed off.

Brooke last day in Tree Hill had taken her by suprise. Lucas Scott, her good friend and ex boyfriend, told her how he felt about her. Brooke who was caught off gaurdjust left without saying a thing. Little did she know that her father's compnay was expanding and plans for an office in Winslet, North Carolina, a quick 20 minute drive from Tree Hill. The Davis got there old house back as soon as they had heard the news and soon Brooke Davis was going resume life back in Tree Hill but the question was could she actually handle life back there.

Peyton ran to the door at the sound of the door bell opening it her eyes searched as she heard a baby coo at her. She looked down to see little Jenny Jigoski.

"Jake." Peyton yelled as she stepped out on the door stop, picking up the carrier that a smiling Jenny laid in. Then from around a bush out walked Jake a hug grin platered on his face.

"Peyton." His voice was soft and his smile caring as he came closer.

Peyton hugged him tightly. "Your back." Pulling back she was so happy right now but she was slightly doubting this was he back for sure. "What happened?"

"I found Nikki, she couldn't handle Jenny she pretty much handed her over. She won't be bothering us again Peyton. Now we can be together." He only hoped that, that was what she still wanted.

"Oh my gosh Jake this is so great. Lets go inside there is so mush I have to tell you." Peyton smiled as she, Jake, and Jenny went into the house and the door closed softly behind them.

Lucas, Nathan, Mouth, Fergie, and Skills ran around the river court playing some ball. It had been 2 1/2 months since the death of Dan Scott and life seemed so much better. Well for the most part. Deb had found out about the heart medication and offered to pay for Lucas medication as long as he promised to eventouly tell his mother about it all. They gather around the table were Mouth sat commentating. catching there breath and getting a drink the guys started to talk.

"Hey Luke youi know Brookes coming back right?" Nathan asked before taking a big drink and returning his eyes to Lucas."

Lucas spit his water out and looked up at Nathan with a look of shock acrossed his face. After she had left and then of course the fact that she hadnt called not once in the 2 and half months he had figured he would never see the love of his life agian but now she was coming back. What did that mean? What did that mean for them anyways?

"Really that great. Its just not the same Tree Hill without her," Mouth chimmed in.

"No I didnt know," Luke said as he looked at Nathan. "Wait how did you know she was coming back?"

"Haley duh!"

"Oh."

"What sup man?" Fergie asked. "I thought you had the hots for her and all that stuff."

Lucas looked around the guys who were all staring at him now. "I do, its just... I dont know... can we not alk about this right now."

Fergie and Nathan exchanged looks before Nathan said anything. "Alright man but hurricane Brookes coming in three days hope your ready."

The guys chuckled as Lucas stood there shacking his head. nthan looked at his watch and sighed. "Shit I have to go I told Haley and my mom I would be home like 15 minutes ago," he said as he waved and headed over to his car. "See ya later guys," he yelled before getting into his car and taking off.

"Yeah Yeah, we got to go to its getting late." Fergie said as he and Skills headed off to there cars and were soon gone.

Lucas took another drink as he felt Mouth's eyes on him.

"What?"

"You wanna talk about this Brooke thing?"

"Not really."

"Well you've been putting it all off this whole summer and she's coming back for sure now."

"Yeah so?"

"You cant avoid her and you know she is going to want to talk to you."

"Well Mouth she didnt even call me to tell me she was coming back I don't think she cares."

"I doubt that." Mouth said as he climbed off the table. "I have to go see you tomorrow Luke."

Mouth was gone now and Lucas stood there alone. Grabbing his cell phone he pulled up her number and sighed before setting it back down and shacking his head. Dribbling the ball he got back on the court and started to shoot some hoops in hopes of getting this all off his mind.
