Thanks to everyone for all of the reviews. I look forward to reading them after each chapter.

Peyton sat watching in her spot watching. She looked around at all the people in the room and realized how much she was going to miss them. This was her family; they had always been her family. She was so tired, not just physically, but emotionally too. Slowly, Peyton's eyelids started to close. She struggled to keep them open. Jake noticed.

"Hey guys, I think Peyton is exhausted."

"No, no! I am fine" Peyton said struggling to open her eyes.

"Get some sleep, Peyt. We will see you tomorrow" Brooke said as she leaned down to take a sleeping Jason out of Peyton's arms.

Peyton missed the feeling of his body when he was gone, " he is such a peaceful baby"

"Yes, he is. Get some sleep Peyton. We will see you tomorrow" Lucas said

"Brooke, Luke"

"Yea?"

"I am glad you came home"

"We are too. It is good to be home" Brooke said as she hugged Peyton tears coming to her eyes, "home"

After everyone had said his or her goodnights and goodbyes to Peyton, Jake closed the door. They walked down the hallway towards the foyer.

"We should be going" Karen said to Brooke, "I know you want to put him down in his bed for the night"

"Yes, Luke can you get his seat?"

"Sure" Lucas walked towards the living room where the carrier was. Nathan followed.

"How long are you guys in town for?"

"A couple of days. I have a meeting that I have to be at next Friday in New York. We will probably stay until Wednesday or so. Why?"

"Just wanted to know if you want to play some basketball while you were here. Maybe talk a little business. I need a new agent"

Lucas laughed, "Don't like the one you have?"

"I like him, but our contract is up next month. I wanted to look for a new agent and there's no better agent then your own brother"

"Ok, meet me at the river court tomorrow at 10am. We will play and discuss it"

"Ok, I'll be there"

The guys walked back towards the front door. Haley looked at the two of them and realized just how much she missed seeing them together.

"Nate, are you ready also?"

"Yea, I will grab our stuff"

Everyone else said goodbye to Jake and walked out the front door, Brooke and Haley leading the way.

"You should come over and stay with us," Haley said

"We don't want to impose"

"You can't impose. You are family"

Karen came up between the girls and said, "How about you two come stay with us tonight?"

"Are you sure?"

"Haley, I am sure. It will be nice to have most of my kids under one roof for a change"

"Okay. We will run home first"

"Why are we running home?" Nate asked as he came walking up with their stuff

"We are going to stay at Karen's tonight"

"Aww. Mom, you want your kids with you tonight?" Nathan asked Karen

Karen laughed and pinched his cheek, "Yes, I do"

When they got back to the house, Lucas and Andy unloaded the stuff from their truck. Lucas carried the portable crib in the house and towards his old room. Brooke was already there rocking the baby to sleep. Lucas set up the crib and kissed Jason before Brooke laid him down.

A few minutes later, Nathan and Haley arrived with their stuff and walked towards the living room. They sat their stuff behind the couch and took a seat on the couch. Andy sat in the chair looking into to space. Karen walked in a few minutes later with some coffee, Lucas followed with Brooke. Lucas started laughing as he took a seat next to Nathan.

"What is so funny?" His brother asked

"Everyone is so quiet. What is this a funeral?"

"So, are you and Nora still friends?" Haley asked Brooke ignoring Lucas

"Oh Yea. Nora and Jason are constantly over our house. Which usually leads to Lucas and Jason getting into trouble. The baby is named after Jason"

"How did that happen?" Haley asked from Nathan's lap.

"The doctor told us that we were having a girl." Brooke said, "Jason told me that it was going to be a boy. After a little disagreement, we bet on it. If it was a girl, he had to walk around for a day with a diaper, a bonnet, and a bottle saying 'It's a girl'. If it were a boy, we would name him after him. When I went into labor, Nora and Jason rushed to the hospital to be there when the baby was born. They wanted to see their godchild. Nora & Lucas were in the delivery room with me and Jason was in the waiting room with everyone else. When I heard the doctor say 'congratulation, you have a baby boy' I about passed out. Jason had won. I looked at Lucas who was laughing and told him not to tell Jason"

"I told her that she had made the bet and she had to go through with it. Nora was already walking out the door to get him. When they came in, Brooke was holding the baby. Jason walked over to her and smiled this sly smile and said 'I won'." Lucas said.

"Being true to my word we named our son, Jason Keith Scott. The day that we were released from the hospital, Jason shows up in a diaper, with a bonnet and holding a bonnet screaming 'it's a boy' around the neighborhood. He always was a kid at heart"

"That was the funniest thing in the world. We caught it on video and watch it when we can. We laugh and laugh and laugh at that"

The rest of the night was spent laughing, telling stories from over the years and having a good time. By midnight, everyone was heading to bed. It had been a good day and hopefully tomorrow would be even better.

At 9am the next morning, Lucas walked in the guest bedroom where Nathan and Haley were sleeping and walked over to his brother. He was hoping to get an early start to their game that was if he could get his brother up.

"Nate" Lucas whispered

Nathan didn't stir

"Nathan" He whispered again. He was trying not to wake up Haley.

Nathan still didn't stir

Lucas gave up and walked out of the room. So much for an early start. He walked into the kitchen and sat down with a cup of coffee. No one else in the house was awake yet. Jason had been up at 6:30 been fed and went back to sleep. Lucas started drifting off at the table when a ringing phone pulled him out fast. It was the house phone. Lucas hesitated a little before finally picking it up.

"Hello?" Lucas asked

"Luke, It's Jake"

"Jake, what's wrong? You sound upset"

"It's Peyton"

"We are on our way" Lucas said as he hung up the phone. He ran to the master bedroom since it was the closest. He walked to his mom's side of the bed and slightly shook her.

"Luke?"

"Mom, it's Peyton"

Karen's head shot up to look at Lucas. "Get the others. Andy?"

Lucas walked out of the room and towards his room to wake his wife, "Brooke?" Lucas asked as he kissed her cheek. She stirred and looked at him, "What is it?"

"It's Peyton"

Brooke's eyes began to fill with tears as she sat up. "I'll get dressed"

"I am going to get Nathan and Haley up and then I will get Jason"

Lucas walked into the guest bedroom and this time he walked towards Haley. "Hales?" Haley's eyes shot open.

"It's Peyton?" Was all Haley asked and Lucas shook his head.

She quickly rolled over towards her husband, "Nathan, get up! It's Peyton"

Lucas walked back towards his room and picked up his son, "Come on buddy. Let's get you dressed"

20 Minutes later they pulled up at Jake and Peyton's, Jenny was sitting outside on the porch with Danielle. She saw Karen and ran to her. "Grandma, something is wrong with mommy"

Jake walked out the front door, picked up Danielle and walked down the steps. Haley took Danielle from him when he reached the group.

"Jake, what is going on?" Nathan asked

"Peyton….Peyton…." Jake stood there dumbfounded. He couldn't finish his statement. He couldn't say anything. Though everyone knew what he was going to say.

AN: Let me know what you think!
