Ok so I was thinking about trying this idea out! I have had it in mind a while now so.. I finally wrote it! Enjoy and PLEASE comment cause I luv it!

Summary: Its been a year since the Tree Hill gang went to College.. then after the first year its finally summer again. Nathan decides to go back to check out things back at home.

To Sum up what everyone been doing I have decided to write a little about it!

NATHAN – He went to a basketball college in Boston but quickly got an injury. He then had to find another college that would take him in fast. He luckily came into a college in California. He have gotten better grades than in High school thats for sure. Now to before College. When Haley came back they decided to stay in the marriage, but avvoided talking to each other, which made the marriage even worse.

HALEY – When the marriage didnt work out that well she decided to leave. The summer before College she packed her bags and left to New York, to get a singing carrier. There she met up with Chris to work on a few songs, but ended up going solo. Shes now a well-known singer and can be seen in a few magazines. She still have a long way to go before she can be a "star". She also kept on with college in New York. She gets straight As.

PEYTON – When Jake never came back she decided to move on, like he said. She applied to an art school in Florida and got in. She moved in the summer vacation and tried hard to settle in. She still has contact with some of the friends she had in Tree Hill, but college life is hectic. She also made a new best friend, after not hearing from Brooke in a while.

LUCAS – Stayed in a place near Tree Hill so he would come back for the hollidays. He does well in his school, but not great. He also finally managed to tell Karen about his heart problem. It took a while but Karen finally managed to help him get his medication. Though he cant play basketball ever, he manages to get himself another lifestyle. Hes got a girlfriend, which goes at the same college as he does.

BROOKE – is still a mystery...


Nathan drives up to his parents old house. They had offered him it when he told them about the injury. They moved near by California to see their son a little more often. Dan had survived the fire thing. Apperentally the person who did it, didnt want Dan to die.. just suffer. No one knew who it was.

He sighed as he opened the car door and stepped up to the house. It sure brought out memories. He looked at the steps as he remembered Haleys face. A smile appeared on his face as he unlocked the door and stepped into the house. It was empty, but still so full. He put his bags down as he checked the fridge for food. Nothing. Of course there was nothing there. No one lived in this house. He checked his pocket for money but all he had was 5 bucks. Well at least he would get coffee at Karens.

Karens Cafe still was up and running, and doing well. Nathan had spent a lot of time there before he went to Boston. Karen had treated him as her own son, considering Lucas already moved out. Nathan thought it was nice. No wonder Lucas was so good, with a 'family' like that.

He walked into the cafe as he looked at Karen and smiled. "Hey Karen!" Nathan said and Karen looked up at him, surprised. She walked up to him, giving him a big hug.

"Nathan!" She said and smiled. Nathan nodded his head.

"Yupp its me" He said and laughed. Karen broke off the hug and directed Nathan to sit.

"How have you been? God I havent seen you in a while!" Karen said and started whiping off the counter, waiting for Nathan to tell her all about his college life.

"well.. you know about the knee injury.. other than that everything have been going well. I got into a great school in California and Im doing well" He said and smiled. He loved that school, and he never thought it would ever be possible.

"well its good to have you back, Tree Hill have been boring without you" Karen said. Brooke popped out of the back room, with a notebook and waitress costume on. She walked up to Karen, still looking at the notebook and Nathan smiled. Karen looked at Nathan and she couldnt help but smile too.

"Karen I swear this cant be right, I mean I have counted them over and ov.." She said but got interrupted by Nathan making a noise. She looked up and looked straight at his face. Her mouth dropped but quickly formed into a great smile.

"Oh my god Nathan!" She almost screamed, and hurried to him. She gave him a big hug and Nathan almost ran out of breathe.

"Its good to see you too" Nathan said and laughed. Brooke quickly broke the hug.

"sorry" She said and smiled. "Its just.. really good to see you!" She said and smiled.

"your acting like you havent seen people in two years.." Nathan joked and Brooke slowly tilted her head.

"Well it feels like it" She said and Nathan raised his eyebrows.

"What, college isnt treating you well?" He said and Brooke froze a little. She sctratched her head and smiled at Nathan.

"well.. the grades is ok, but the people.. lets just say its not what Im used to" She said, with her arm slowly giving her neck a massage. She was tired after all the working.

"So your not voted homecoming queen? Did you not make it to the cheerleading team?" Nathan joked and Brooke hit him slowly on his arm.

"ha-ha" She said, fake. "very funny.. actually its not like the social type Im used to. Everyones so smart"

"well then how did Brooke come in?" Nathan joked again.

"Enough with the jokes mr funny guy" Brooke said and looked at Karen. "Mind if I take 5?" She said, with an angel face. Karen laughed and nodded.

"Go ahead, you have been working quite hard this week" Karen said and Brooke started smiling and mouthed 'thank you' to her. She lead Nathan in the direction of an empty table.

"So your actually working here for the summer?" Nathan said surprised.

"well yeah, what did you think this was?" She said and pointed at the waitress outfit. "A halloween costume?" She joked. Karen walked up to Brooke and pointed at someone who just walked in the door.

"sorry but I guess your on duty again" karen said and Brooke smiled.

"well we will have to talk later Nathan, why dont you call me sometime?" She said and walked up to the new customers. Karen sat down where Brooke sat and looked at Nathan.

"So its my time, how has College been treating you?" karen said and Nathan shook his head lightly.

"well better than it has with Brooke, she looks really tired.." He said and Karen looked at him confused.

"You must have misunderstood.." Karen said and now Nathan was looking confused at her. "Brooke never went to college.." She said and Nathan curled his eyebrows and looked at Karen. "She stayed in Tree Hill cause she didnt get into the college she wanted. I tried to talk her into finding a local one.. but she wouldnt agree to it.." Karen said. Nathan was still looking confused at Karen.

"But she told me.." He said and scratched his head. "I mean she told me about college.. how things was going." Nathan said and looked over at Brooke that was smiling to the customers. She was always good with people, when she wasnt rude to them.

"I guess shes just embaressed.." Karen said and looked at her watch. "I better get going. Enjoy your stay" She said as he never been there. She walked to the backroom, and Nathan kept on looking at Brooke. Why was she embaressed to tell him that she never went to college?
