Haley, Nathan, and Holly left their house they all wanted something different. So they decided to go to a diner down the road.
When they enter the diner they were seated right away. Just as they took their seats an older man spotted her and walked over to her.
"Well, Well. Ms. Scott. Long time no see. Huh?" Whitey said
"Yeah. Hey coach. How are you?" Haley replied.
Nathan and Holly looked confused at what the man had just called their mother. Their entire life they've known their mother as Haley James even though their names were "Scott".
"Well, who do we have here?" Whitey asked.
" Um… Coach Durham, these are my kids" Haley replied.
"Oh my. Are they Nath..?" Whitey started but stopped himself at the look on her face.
"Yeah. This is Holly and Nathan Jr."Haley whispered hoping her kids could not hear her.
"Well, I gotta go check up on the new coach there at the school, so I better get going." Whitey said quickly
"Hey that's my new coach." Nathan said loudly.
"Really? You're on Nathan's team?"Whitey asked.
"Yup. I guess. Wow, his name's Nathan too. That's so cool" Nathan replied.
"Yeah. Well see you later. Nice seeing you again Ms.Scott. Hope I see you around" Whitey said and walked away.
Nathan and Holly both stared at Haley after Whitey walked away.
"Well, we better order. Waitor."Haley yelled.
They all ordered and the waiter brought their drinks. Nathan and Holly were still staring at Haley.
"What's with you two?" She asked.
"Why was that guy calling you Ms. Scott? I mean you're not a Scott. You're Haley James. Not Scott." Nathan started yelling.
"Oh, you know old people they just get confused." She tried saying trying to cover this whole thing up.
"I don't think so. Tell us the truth." Nathan said directly.
Just then the waiter came to their table and placed down their food. They just sat there in silence for the rest of the meal.

(At the school. In Nathan's office)
Nathan was sitting at his desk looking at some old photos of him and Lucas and Haley when Whitey walked in.
"Re-living some old memories."Whitey asked. Frightening Nathan.
" Yeah, I guess so." Nathan replied.
"So Nate, how you doing?" He asked softly
"Okay, I guess." Nathan said quietly.
"So... I met your Mr. and Ms. Scott" Whitey blurted out.
"What...what are you talking about?" Nathan asked confused.
"Nathan and Holly!" He said.
"Who are they? I mean that's my name." Nathan replied.
"Yeah, I know. I mean your son and daughter." He said
"What…what do you mean? I don't have any kids. None." Nathan spoke so seriously.
"Well, you better check up on that one, coach. Cause your son's on your team." Whitey said stating the fact.
"Who? How could I? Who's are they?" He kept asking questions.
"Haley's, Nathan. You don't know your kids? At all? Well, sorry I said anything. Anyway how's the practicing going." Whitey said changing the subject.
"Haley? You mean..? Oh god. I'm an idiot. How could I...? There's no way I..."He continued for a while then took out Nathan's permission form for the team which had his phone number and address on it and left the office.
