Episode 10 Ch.2- Oh Charlie
Peyton was able to get herself off the floor but she was still in a lot of pain, but she thought a lot of the pain came from the fact that her husband's son hated her. Elizabeth walked in the door to find her mother with tears in her eyes.
Elizabeth- mom oh my God what happened?
Peyton- nothing it's ok
Elizabeth- obviously something happened…Are you ok?
Peyton- I'm just having a hard time with Charlie that's all.
Elizabeth- Mom…did he do something
Peyton- nothing I can't handle…
Lucas comes in and can tell something is wrong immediately.
Lucas- What's wrong?
Elizabeth- I'm gonna go to my room..(She walks upstairs not even glancing at her father)
Peyton- I tried to talk to Charlie when I got him home, and he threw another fit and kicked me in the legs causing me to fall
Lucas- What? Peyton….he's only three he wouldn't do that
Peyton- Why would I lie about something like that
Lucas- It was probably an accident
Peyton- I doubt him deliberately kicking me in the legs was a mistake Lucas…I'm a grown woman I would not lie to you about your three year old son…I suggest you talk to him because he hates me and he has temper and there is a chance the next time I might not be so lucky…(She gets up he tries to stop her but she pushes him off and grabs her keys and leaves)
Lucas- Peyton…(he closes his eyes and shakes his head…he was a writer but he didn't have any words to express how confused he was)
Charlie was in his room playing with his toys. Lucas walks in.
Lucas- Charlie could you stop playing with that for a minute
Charlie- no...(he says firmly)
Lucas- that's it young man…time out for you…(He picks up his toys and puts them on the top shelf) now come sit down
Charlie- I don't want too
Lucas- you don't have a choice
Charlie- your mean
Lucas- yeah well if your attitude doesn't change I'm gonna be a lot meaner
Charlie- your mean like Peyton
Lucas- Peyton is not mean….she has been very nice to you
Charlie- she's not my mommy
Lucas- I understand that, but you are to be nice to her…you got it
Charlie- no
Lucas- Charlie…(breathes in and out trying not to lose his temper) Why were you bad at school?
Charlie- because I can be
Lucas- excuse me
Charlie- mommy's not here to tell me what to do so I can do what I want to do
Lucas- I'm sorry to tell you Charlie but you have to mind me…I am in charge of you, and you can't just do what you want to do and expect to get away with it…You can't go to school anymore because of the way you acted today
Charlie- so I don't like school
Lucas had no idea what to do…He was at a loss…so he picks up Charlie
Charlie- put me down…put me down now…
Lucas- no sir…(he takes him into his bedroom and puts him on the bed) you stay in here…your in time out and you can't play for the rest of the night
Charlie- (he cries) daddy…that's not fair
Lucas- yeah well you getting in trouble is not fair…now sit there and think about what you did today and how you have been treating Peyton….(Lucas walks out and shuts the door. His kids hadn't always been angels but he had never had this kind of problems out them before, and he wasn't sure how to handle it….and a small part of him was wishing that Lindsay was there to calm him and give him a little bit of closure)
Peyton walked into her office well Mia's office now and set on the very familiar couch. Mia walked in surprised to see her boss.
Mia- you're a little early
Peyton- I know…I was having a bad day and somehow this place was always able to calm me a little bit…
Mia- yeah sometimes it helps me relax…so what happened?
Peyton- you know life
Mia- yeah I know life sometimes sucks…
Peyton- this place looks great by the way
Mia- well I learned from the best…oh yeah I had an idea for Red Bedroom Records to get back on the map
Peyton- I didn't think we left but ok
Mia- well you know we haven't signed anyone in a while and I was thinking that we could hold a contest for the locals and the winner gets signed….what do you think?
Peyton- actually like that idea
Mia- but I don't think it should be bands we have signed a lot of bands….
Peyton- you want a solo artist
Mia- yeah like me
Peyton- you didn't start solo
Mia- yeah but I was signed solo and that worked out for me don't you think
Peyton- yeah it kind of did…I think this is a great idea…you should announce it tonight…
Mia- thank you for this…I love all of this power
Peyton- just don't let it get to your head
Mia- (rolls her eyes) I'll try my best….and you should go back home and face life…cause its not going anywhere
Peyton frowned but she knew Mia was right, and she hated that she was right. She was too young to be right all of the time.
Deb was at home watching Sophie. Brooke had finally gone to work without taking the baby. She heard a knock on the door.
Deb- Victoria what the hell do you want?
Victoria- I came to see Sophie…I've been in New York and I haven't seen her in a while
Deb- She's asleep
Victoria- I can wait until she wakes up
Deb- I don't think that is such a good idea….You can come back later…
Victoria- You can't keep me from my granddaughter
Deb- I can sure in the hell try. Now if you'll excuse me I'm cooking dinner…(she shuts the door without even thinking about it…Victoria looks pissed)
The scene changes to Brooke at Clothes over Bros…Victoria barges in.
Brooke- Victoria is something wrong?
Victoria- Deb wouldn't let me see my granddaughter
Brooke- Oh why not?
Victoria- she said she was asleep
Brooke- well Deb is big on her getting her sleep…I'm sure if she was awake she would have let you seen her
Victoria- I doubt it…Deb doesn't like me…but you can't let her keep me from my granddaughter…
Brooke- I know…I'll talk to her…I'm sorry…
Jake is at home. He is now on crutches because it has been two weeks since his surgery and he had felt mass improvement almost immediately.
Jenny brings him a cup of tea.
Jenny- you know this is pretty cool dad
Jake- yeah I think so…but stop avoiding my question…Why are you home so early?
Jenny- I already told you daddy my classes were cancelled….I thought you would be happy that I'm home and you get to spend more time with me…
Jake- I am thrilled but I don't want your grades to suffer
Jenny- they won't I promise…anyways…are you and Emily going to the basketball kick off party at TRIC?
Jake- I don't know
Jenny- come on daddy you have to go…I think you should definitely show off your crutches…
Jake smiled. He wanted to go but he didn't really want to see Peyton. He had been thinking about her a lot lately, and he didn't think it would be good for him to see her.
Nathan was coming out of the café when he ran into Emily.
Nathan- hi
Emily- hey
Nathan- it's been a while
Emily- yeah it has
Nathan- you look great…I heard you were dating Jake
Emily- yeah…he's a good guy
Nathan- Well I always thought you deserved the best
Emily- that's why you live with Brooke now….because I always thought you were the best for me…
Nathan- Emily
Emily- let's not fight Nathan…I'm happy for you…I'm happy that you got everything you ever wanted because that is all I ever wanted…I wanted you to be happy….
Nathan- I'm sorry that I hurt you
Emily- If only I'm sorry made things better…I should go…Jake's waiting…(Emily walks off leaving Nathan feeling down because he knew he had hurt her)
Keith comes in the house to see Lucas sitting on the couch.
Keith- you ok dad?
Lucas- yeah…I'm fine…how are you? You getting nervous yet?
Keith- why would I be nervous?
Lucas- the first big game is tomorrow…and you're my star
Keith- thanks for that dad but you guys could win without me
Lucas- I know that as a coach I'm supposed to say that every player matters but we all know that without you winning would be a lot harder…you're an amazing athlete and you are going to go so far Keith…
Keith- dad I
Lucas- I'm so proud of you Keith. You know what makes me even happier? The fact that you don't have to worry about my heart disease. At least I know that my heart condition won't ruin your dreams…I tell you the day you took that test was the scariest day of my life…I was so scared the results were going to break our hearts…but you don't have it and we don't have to worry about it…
Keith- yeah that's a good thing (he hated lying to his father)
Lucas- that's the best thing…because I see you going so far son and I can't wait to see you play in college…that's part of my dream for you…
Keith- yeah me too dad (he looks a little guilty)
Brooke comes home.
Brooke- Deb…Deb…
Deb- hey (She has Sophie) Look a there sweetie your mommy is here
Brooke takes the baby.
Brooke- what were you thinking today?
Deb- what?
Brooke- you shouldn't have sent Victoria away…you don't have that right…She is her grandmother too
Deb- Brooke
Brooke- just please…the next time my mother wants to see MY daughter let her… (Brooke walks upstairs holding her little girl. Deb listened to what Brooke had to say but she didn't trust Victoria and she never would)
Peyton comes back home and Lucas stands up.
Lucas- I was worried about you. You didn't answer your cell phone…I got nervous
Peyton- Yeah you didn't deserve that I'm sorry
Lucas- no don't apologize…you didn't deserve how I treated you…I am the one that is sorry
Peyton- Luke this is getting hard for me
Lucas- I know and I'm hoping that it will get better
Peyton- I don't think hoping is going to help….He doesn't like me and now he is going to have to stay home with me everyday until we find him a new daycare
Lucas- maybe he just needs to spend sometime with you…trust me on this Peyton…he's just confused
Peyton didn't say anything because she really didn't believe that things were going to get better. Charlie hated her and she didn't know how to fix it.
Charlie was upstairs still in his daddy's room. He was a smart three year old and he jumped off the bed and took the picture of Peyton that was sitting on the nightstand and stepped on the glass and threw it under the bed. He hated Peyton because she was trying to be his mommy and he didn't want a new mommy.
Alright let me know what ya think
