AN- Sorry for the long wait. Haley and Brooke are sisters who lived in New York until their father's job moved the family to Tree Hill 7 years ago. Haley didn't move with them and Brooke doesn't talk to her and hasn't seen her in 7 years.

13 Years Later

Lucas walked into his girlfriend's bedroom. ''Hey baby, I'll be ready in minute.'' She said when she noticed Lucas come in to her room.

''That's okay. Would you mind if we stopped by the cemetery first before going to the party on the beach.'' Lucas asked her.

''Sure. I knew you want to talk to Aaron. You always do before the first day off school.'' Brooke said. 'Okay I'm ready. Let's go.'' Brooke continued lifting her purse of her bed.

Lucas and Brooke walked out of her house towards her car. The drove towards Tree Hill cemetery. Brooke stayed in the car while Lucas got out to visit his brother. ''Hey Aaron, so I start my junior year tomorrow and there's still no sign of Nathan. Everyone thinks I'm fine and it doesn't bother me that Nathan isn't here. I mean it's been 13 years, I shouldn't be bothered but I need him, I've always had the both of you watching out for me and protecting me from Deb and Keith. We'll I've got to go Brooke's waiting in the car for me. The juniors are throwing a party on the beach. I'll come talk to you after school tomorrow.'' Lucas said, he got up and kissed his two fingers and placing them on the headstone before going back to the car.

''You okay baby.'' Brooke asked putting her hand on his leg and driving out of the cemetery and towards the beach for the party.

''Yeah I'm fine. Let's just enjoy ourselves tonight at the party.'' Lucas said placing a kiss on her knuckles. ''I love you.'' He said as they pulled up at the beach.

''I love you too.'' Brooke said kissing him and getting out of the car. Lucas and Brooke walked towards Peyton and Jake hand in hand. ''Hey guys.'' Brooke said taking the drink Peyton handed to her.

''Hey so why are you guys late.'' Peyton asked.

''Lucas wanted to stop by and visit Aaron.'' Brooke said.

An hour later and the party was in full swing. Lucas was sitting on an empty part of the beach on the sand staring out at the water when Brooke came over to him. ''Hi baby, why are you not at the party.'' Brooke said sitting down on the sand beside him.

''I don't really feel in the partying mood.'' Lucas said moving Brooke to sit in front of him between his legs. Brooke turned round and kissed him. They started making out. When air became necessary they broke apart. ''I got to go soon. Karen wants me home by 12.00. Cause we got first day of school tomorrow.'' Lucas said as Brooke turned back round to look out at the water he rubbed his hands up and down Brooke's bare arms.

''I know we're juniors tomorrow. How about we go back to mine and watch a movie before you have to go home.'' Brooke said. Lucas and Brooke headed back to Brooke's house. They went up to her room and watched The Last Song. When the movie was over Lucas went home and went to bed, before he fell asleep he whispered the same thing he says every night for the last 13 years, ''I miss you Nathan.''

(WITH NATHAN)

''Alright Jimmy Jam it's time for bed.'' Haley said.

''Can daddy tell me a story.'' Jamie asked as he climbed into bed and got comfortable.

Nathan walked into Jamie's bedroom. ''Okay, what story do you want.'' Nathan asked him as he sat beside him on the edge of his little bed.

''I want to know why I got my name.'' Jamie asked.

''Your name.'' Nathan asked. ''Okay you got the name James because that is your mommy's last name and your grandpa Jimmy. And your middle name is the name of your uncle. I give you Lucas because he is my little brother and I haven't seen him in 13 years the last time I saw him he was the same age as you. And you look like your uncle Lucas too.'' Nathan said. ''So that is how you got your name.'' He added.

''Why have you not seen him in a long time.'' Jamie asked.

''I had to leave him so that he would be safe. Our parents weren't nice people. So I left him so I could get nice people to look after him like our aunt and uncle.'' Nathan said, ''now it's bedtime. So go to sleep.'' He continued.

After Jamie went to bed Nathan and Haley went to bed to get ready for their first day at work, ''you ready for work tomorrow.'' Haley asked Nathan.

''Yeah I am. I'm looking forward to coaching the boys and teaching them the game and what it really means to be a part of a team.'' Nathan said. Nathan and Haley fell asleep in each other's arms.

(TREE HILL HIGH)

Lucas and Jake met up with Brooke and Peyton before they headed off to their first class. Lucas and Peyton have world history first, Brooke has English and Jake has Calculus. ''Okay guys see you at lunch.'' Brooke said kissing Lucas.

After Brooke headed off to her class, Jake headed off to his and Peyton and Lucas headed off to their class. Brooke sat in her seat. Haley walked in to her classroom and saw her younger sister sitting at a table talking away to people around her. ''Hello class my name is Miss James. I'm your English teacher.'' Haley said.

Brooke looked at her and rolled her eyes. The class was spent talking about different authors that the class were interested in. Brooke met with Lucas, Peyton and Jake at lunch time. Brooke told them about Haley. ''Maybe she wants to start being a family again.'' Peyton said.

''I don't want to be a family with her again. She left 7 years ago, I haven't talk or seen her since.'' Brooke snapped at her.

Lucas got up and before walking away said. ''Brooke, your sister may have been gone for 7 years but at least she's back, I've a dead brother that will never be coming back and another who left me 13 years ago and I don't know if he will ever be back. You should be happy. I'll see you all at practice.'' Lucas walked away to his next class leaving Peyton and Jake sitting quietly and Brooke just got up and walked away, she knew Lucas was upset as he called her Brooke and not pretty girl or baby.

After school Brooke and Peyton went to cheer practice while the boys went to basketball practice. ''Alright boys, ''I'm your new coach. My name is Nathan Scott; you boys are to call me Coach Scott. Any questions.'' Nathan asked as he stood in front of them. Jamie was sitting on the bleachers colouring in.

Lucas stood in the gym. He was shocked his older brother who protected him and looked after him then abandoned him. He turned round and walked out off the gym. Brooke ran after him. ''Luke wait up.'' Brooke called to him.

''What Brooke.'' Lucas said stopping and turning round to face Brooke.

''Is that Nathan.'' Brooke said.

''Yeah, listen go back to practice and tell Coach that I had to go home.'' Lucas said. He gave Brooke a kiss then he left. When Lucas got home she saw Dan and Karen in the kitchen preparing dinner.

''Do you not have practice.'' Dan asked him when he saw him.

''I did.'' Lucas answered.

''Why you home then.'' Karen asked Lucas played basketball as it was a way for him to feel closer to both Nathan and Aaron.

''Nathan's back. He's the new coach.'' Lucas said.
