"Luke!" Haley James snapped her fingers. "Snap out of it!"
He didn't respond. "Luke!" she hit him over the head with a dish towel. "Wake up! It's only 10:30! In the morning!"
Lucas Scott lifted his head off the counter.
"If there is drool on the counter I am going to kick your ass." she smiled.
Lucas groaned.
"Long night huh?"
"Yeah, I stayed up all night." he said.
She gave him a suspicious look. "Hmm . . . What were you doing all night?"
He looked at her. "Nothing just . . . thinking."
"Sure." she giggled.
"Hey you look tired what were you doing?" he asked her.
Haley turned red. "Nothing." she said quietly.
Lucas looked suddenly awake now. "You were with that guy again! Weren't you?"
Haley busied herself with cleaning the counter.
"Lucas don't call him that he's your brother."
He looked at her sadly. "Hales . . . He's using you."
"Don't say that! He is not! I believe he wants to change."
Lucas drank his coffee. "Haley come on. Look he's the one who asked for the separation."
She walked out from the counter to sit by him. "Yeah, that's because he did it out of anger! He had every right to be." she finished talking a drink of Lucas' coffee. After one drink she kept drinking it.
"Haley!" Lucas said taking the cup away from her.
She pouted.
"Haley, you're my best friend. . . Were my best friend . . ."
She gave him a confused look. "Are my best friend," he said looking uncomfortable. "And you know I love you, and I love Nathan . . . Cause he's my brother.."
She looked at him. "So?"
He looked around. "Well . . . You see when married couples split up . . . They don't continue to have sex afterwards." he nodded patting her hand.
Haley looked mad. "Well . . . We're still married . . . In a weird . . . Legal way."
Lucas continued to drink his continue. "I didn't want to tell you this . . . But I heard he sent in the papers."
Her jaw dropped. "What?"
Lucas just nodded.
Just then the door opened.
Haley jumped up. "Oh costumers." she waked behind the counter.
"Cohen I can't believe that you couldn't work the timer! God, you are such a blond!"
"I'm sorry everywhere I've been it's always been self-parking or valet.." Seth said walking in behind Summer. "How was supposed to know to put money in it?"
Haley mouthed to Lucas. ' from outta town' he agreed.
Marissa walked in ."You guys I think we put too much money in it. It says we paid for 4 hours."
"Well. . . The next person who parks there is gonna have free parking." Ryan laughed.
Seth and Summer were sitting in the corner. Ryan and Marissa went to go join them.
"So Coop," Summer said looking around. "You said you used to come here when you were little?"
Marissa nodded ."Yeah, last time I was here I was about . . . 14 . . . It's a bit smaller then I remembered though."
"Maybe you just got taller. Cause when you were 14 you were a shorty." Seth pointed out.
Haley walked over to them. "Hey guys what can I get ya?"
Summer looked up. "Yes! I'd like a cup of coffee. And it's extremely fresh right?"
Haley nodded. "Yeah, we're making some right now."
"Great! I'd like that and a croissant." Summer said smiling handing the menu to Haley.
"I'll have the same thing as her." Marissa said.
"Okay . . . How about you?" She asked Ryan.
"Just a coffee and water please." He smiled warmly at her.
She smiled and nodded.
"And I'll have a turkey sandwich, with white thin bread, light on the mayo. No extremely crispy lettuce. Just a little crisp. Oh and toast the bread just a little. And coffee." Seth ordered.
"Cohen!" Summer slapped his head. "We're not in California! Nobody's gonna have time to do that." she looked at Haley. "He'll just have a regular turkey sandwich."
Seth was about to open his mouth but Summer gave him a warning look.
Haley laughed walking back to get the coffee's. "So I'm guessing you're all from outta town huh?" she asked them.
"Who? Huh? Us?" Seth looked up. "Yeah, we're from California."
Haley walked back over to them giving them their coffee.
"Yeah, I was guessing so. Since You're all dressed so fashionably. So why are you over here?"
Summer yawned then drank her coffee pointing toward Marissa. "Cause, Miss Coop over here is visiting some relatives and we tagged along."
"Oh really? Who are you're relatives?" Haley asked Marissa.
Marissa took her croissant. "Oh um . . . David and Evelyn Cooper? They're my uncle and aunt."
Haley looked surprised. "Really? The Coopers? I used to live next door to them . . . Hey . . . You're Marissa Cooper aren't you? You used to visit and we hung out."
"Yeah . . . You're . . . um . . ."Marissa tried to remember. "Sorry I know it started with an H."
Haley smiled. "Haley, Haley James Sc-" she looked at Lucas. "Just James."
Marissa shrugged. "So what you been up to for the past four years? Since I haven't been to Tree Hill in such a long time?"
Haley all the sudden looked uncomfortable. Lucas tried to stifle his laughter.
"Well . . . You see it's really complicated." she stuttered.
Lucas got up and stood by Haley. He put his arm on her shoulder. "It's not really complicated. You see . . . Our little Haley here got married . . . Split up and now she's single again."
Marissa's mouth opened. "Are you serious?"
Seth, Ryan, and Summer were confused. "And I though Newport was bad." Summer said.
Then Marissa looked at Lucas. "I remember you! Lucas!"
Haley rolled her eyes. "Yeah she remembers you but she barely remembers me."
"No! Of course I remember you! You said you wanted to marry Lu-"
Lucas raised his eyebrows. "Never mind." Marissa muttered.
Summer waved her hand. "Hi. Since my dear good friend wasn't polite enough to introduce us. I'm Summer Roberts." she looked at Seth. He had a blank expression on hi face. She nudged him.
"Oh I'm Seth Cohen."
And finally. "And I'm Ryan Atwood." Ryan smiled.
Haley smiled back at him. "Yeah, I'm Haley James, and this is my friend Lucas Scott."
Lucas waved.
"Wait." Summer stopped. "You're Lucas Scott? As in the Lucas Scott Marissa told me about every time she came home?"
"Sum!" Marissa scolded her.
"It's okay Marissa. Just so you know I used have a crush on you too." Lucas said.
"Well, that's depressing," Haley muttered. "The boy I wanted to marry had a crush on my friend."
"It's okay Hales. I used to have a crush on you too."
"Really?" Haley became excited.
"For about two hours." Lucas laughed.
Just then other people came in.
"Sorry guys I gotta get back to work." Haley said.
"As do I." Lucas said walking away.
"Hey since you're gonna be here for awhile. I was wondering if you'd be able to come by tonight. You know to catch up. You bring your friends and I'll bring mine." Haley told them.
"Will Karen be alright with it?" Marissa asked.
"Definitely. Especially after we tell her who's here." Haley said happily.
"Okay then."
"Fine then come back around . . . 7:00 for dinner." Haley walked away.
Ryan, Seth, and Summer started to talk about the plans for tonight. While Marissa thought.
'I wonder who Haley got married to.'
