Hey Guys

Another day another chapter. So here I am writing Chapter 13 and realized that Chapter12 was longer than any chapter that I have ever written. On Microsoft Word it totaled 10 pages. Your reviews have kept this story fresh.

Jeytonlover: Thank you for saying how you liked my style of writing, I personally hate reading stories where the conversations seemed forced, and the interaction between Jenny and the group, I felt that even though Jenny is only two she should interact with them, plus I thought it needed some comedy because most two year olds will repeat anything you tell them to.

PaulineJ: I'm glad you like the story so much.

(Mark Schwann and the WB own the characters depicted in this story I don't own anything… I wish I could say I owned the show but I don't)

Everyone arrived at the River Court and the girls who were now joined by Bevin decided to be cheerleaders for both teams, while Mouth sat next to Jenny on the benches to do commentary like the old days. The boys shot for teams and were as follows:

Team One Team Two

Lucas Skills

Nathan Fergie

Jake Junk

How they actually ended up that way the girls had no idea all they knew was that it would be an interesting game. The parents had decided that they needed more light on the court besides the one streetlight and the lights of downtown, so they turned on the headlights on the cars.

The game was progressing nicely. The score was 15-17 with Luke, Jake, and Nate in the lead but Fergie was about to put up a 3 point shot that would make it 18-17.

"Fergie dribbles up the court, oh and the ball is stolen by Jake, who passes to Nathan and he dunks it!" Said Mouth.

"Yay!" Said Jenny.

"And the crowd is obviously pleased with that play." Said Mouth commenting on Jenny.

"Okay I need a break, what about you guys." Said Lucas.

"Getting old on me there Big Brother?" Said Nathan.

"No, you know I'm only older by three months, Nathan. I'm just tired." Said Lucas sitting down.

Everyone sat down then the guys noticed something strange about the girls, they had changed clothes. They were now wearing their old cheerleading uniforms.

"Ladies and Gentlemen our cheerleaders have now changed out of their outfits that they arrived in and are now sporting the Tree Hill High uniforms." Said Mouth, which prompted a few whistles from the younger guys.

"Where did you find that?" Asked Lucas intrigued.

"I didn't take everything with me to New York." Said Brooke.

"Can you leave it on for later?" Whispered Lucas into Brooke's ear.

"Maybe." Said Brooke.

"Good, you guys done resting?" Asked Lucas suddenly getting a second wind.

"You sure you're okay?" Asked Nathan.

"Yeah, let's play."

"How long do you think they can go on like this?" Asked Mae to Deb and Karen.

"Well I know Lucas will be done soon, his shoulder probably won't hold out much longer, and Nathan will play like this as long as Luke does." Said Karen.

"I thought his shoulder was doing better?" Said Deb.

"It is but he's practicing 3 days a week and is in the weight room everyday except Sunday." Said Karen.

"That can't be good for him."

"Well now that Brooke will be in Boston I hope that he'll relax some more."

"I don't think that when Brooke moves to Boston we have to worry about Lucas working him self too hard in the gym, she won't let him."

"I won't let Broody do what?"

"Work too hard in the gym." Said Deb.

"Trust me, I yell at him about it now, but there is only so much I can do from New York." Said Brooke understanding where Karen was coming from. "I think he just does it so he thinks he's not worrying about me being by myself." Said Brooke.

"But Lucas does even if he won't admit it." Said Deb.

"Exactly." Added Brooke.

The game ended with the teams tied, and the guys vowed to continue it at Christmas break.

"You guys all played great." Said Royal proudly to his grandsons and their friends.

"Thanks, Grandpa." Said Lucas as he was hugging Brooke close to him.

"Um, Nathan, Peyton can Larry and I speak to you two for a second?" Asked Deb.

"Sure." Said Peyton as she glanced over at Nate seeing if he knew what this was about which in return he gave her a look that told her he had no idea.

"What's up, Mom?" Said Nathan getting worried.

"Nathan, Peyton we have something to tell you and we want you to know that no matter how you react nothing will change the situation." Said Larry.

"Okay, Dad you are starting to scare me." Said Peyton.

"Peyton, Nathan Deb and I have been seeing each other." Said Larry.

"Explain 'seeing each other'." Said Nathan

"Honey, Larry and I have been going out romantically." Said Deb.

"Really? Since when?" Asked Peyton.

"October, it just started as meeting for coffee, but we started to realize that we wanted to see each other more often." Said Larry.

"Are you two okay with this, I mean I know that you two were together during high school." Said Deb.

"I'm okay with it, what about you Peyton?" Asked Nathan.

"I'm cool." Said Peyton.

"You guys are really okay with all of this?" Asked Deb.

"Yeah, why wouldn't we be?" Said Nathan.

"I don't know, I just thought it would take more of a discussion." Said Deb.

"Mom, as long as you are happy, I'm happy, and Larry remember you hurt her I know more ways into your house than you thought possible." Said Nathan joking.

"I'll keep that in mind Nathan." Said Larry.

After the discussion with their kids Deb and Larry joined the adults by the cars.

"Nate, do you realize that now that our parents are together our relationship just entered a whole new universe?"

"What do mean, besides the fact that if our parents ever got married, not only would we be brother and sister, that we have slept together before, and not only that in a odd way you would also be related to Lucas who you hooked up with." Said Nathan with a laugh.

"Okay question, why can't the adults find relationships outside of ours?" Said Peyton matching his tone.

"Because it wouldn't be Tree Hill without a little drama." Said Nathan.

Meanwhile Deb and Larry started talking to Karen and Keith.

"So how did it go?" Asked Karen.

"Fine, they're okay with it." Said Deb.

"So okay that Nathan told me if I hurt her that he knew all the ways into my house."

"Wow, I'm surprised that they took it so well." Said Keith.

"Me too." Said Larry expecting to have a small confrontation with Peyton.

"So what was the pow-wow about?" Asked Brooke.

"Well you two weren't the only ones keeping your relationship a secret." Said Peyton.

"What do you mean?" Asked Haley.

"Apparently my mom and Peyton's dad have been together since October." Said Nathan.

"What?" Asked Lucas.

"Yeah, that's what they just told us."

"Are you guys okay with that?" Asked Jake.

"Yeah, as long as their happy, I mean after putting up with Dan for so many years, it's good to see my mom actually happy." Said Nathan.

"Cool." Said Haley.

"Yeah, I mean what's Tree Hill without potential step-siblings that once were together as a couple." Said Brooke. "It would just be another town."

"I could have said it better my self, Brooke thanks." Said Peyton.

"You know what if that happens we'll all be related somehow." Said Haley.

"Oh my god that is so true." Said Brooke.

After the reveal of Larry and Deb's relationship everybody decided that it was time to go home and turn in.

"Well, I guess we'll see you all tomorrow sometime?" Asked Lucas.

"Yeah, when are you guys going back to New York and Boston?" Asked Haley.

"Sunday night, I have class first thing Monday morning." Said Brooke

"Well, that still leaves us two days to hang out." Said Peyton.

After they decided to get together and do something, everyone went home. When Brooke and Lucas got home Brooke went to the bathroom to brush her teeth, expecting that when she came out, she and Lucas could finish what they tried to start that morning, Only when she came back into the room she found Lucas passed out on the bed with his shoes still on.

"Lucas, wake up. I can't move you so your not hanging off the bed." Said Brooke as she was smacking Lucas' legs.

"Hmm…" Said Lucas.

"Lucas, wake up, seriously come on." Said Brooke getting frustrated with him especially since he was lying in the middle of the bed.

"Five more minutes." Said Lucas.

"No, not five more minutes. Move your ass now!" Said Brooke as she tried to push Lucas over a little so she could at least lie down.

"Oh man, honey I'm sorry I must have fallen asleep." Said Lucas as he woke up to Brooke's pushing.

"Don't honey me, just move over so I can go to sleep too, please." Said Brooke as Lucas got up.

"I'm going to take a quick shower." Said Lucas realizing he just played ball for a few hours.

"Fine, just so you know I was going to wear the uniform for you right now, but if you really want to take a shower be my guest." Said Brooke.

"Brooke I just played a four hour game, I don't want to take a shower but I need one." Said Lucas trying to convince her to keep the uniform on.

"Make it quick." Said Brooke.

"I will." Said Lucas as he walked out the door.

When he came out of the shower he went back into the room and saw that Brooke had actually fallen asleep herself while waiting for him, but he didn't have the heart to wake her, so he put on some boxers and climbed into bed next to her.

"Night, Cheery." He said as he kissed her cheek and wrapped her arms around her and fell asleep himself.
