Episode 1 Chapter 2 Life Happens

Peyton walks into the studio holding Zander.

"Peyton I am so glad you are here."

"I'm sorry I'm so late…The kids have me running all over the place, and this one right here is a mess. And then I was at the gallery, and I'm sorry."

"It's okay."

Peyton sits Zander in the playpen. "What's wrong Mia? I can tell that something is bothering you."

"This," Mia shows her the paperwork. "It isn't good Peyton."

"Oh wow…we're not making money."

"No…and with Jamie refusing to go on tour we don't really have any artist out there. I mean there is Becky, but she hasn't really been recording since she had the baby. Peyton I don't know what we are going to do. I think we may lose Red Bedroom Records."

Peyton shook her head. She didn't want that to happen.

….

Millie sees Max about to walk into the café. "Hey Max," she hadn't really talked to him in a while.

"Hey…What's up?"

"You should come to the totally awesome party I'm throwing tonight."

"You're throwing a party?"

"Yeah…it was a last minute thing. I would love it if you would come."

Max nodded, "Okay…I'll see what I can do."

"Max…we used to be friends…we still can be you know."

"I know." Max faked a smile. "I want us to be friends again." But he wasn't sure that he did.

"Great…then I hope I'll see you at the party. It's going to be great."

…

"Alright," Jason threw the last of the bags into the car. "We can finally leave."

"I can't believe you guys are going camping. It's going to be dark soon." Ellie told them.

"It's more fun this way. It's spur of the moment." Riley told her. "I know you're going to miss me, but we'll be back tomorrow." He gives her a kiss on the lips. "I promise."

"I'm not going to miss you that much." She smiled. "McKenzie and I are going to have some much needed girl time."

"Yep," McKenzie smiles with Ally in her arms. "Ally can't wait for facials and ice cream."

"Are you sure you guys are going to be okay? I don't have to go." Hunter said worriedly.

"Yes you do Hunter. We'll be fine. I've kept Ally before." McKenzie reminded him.

"I know. I just I worry sometimes."

"I know, and you also forget that you are seventeen years old. You still need to have fun."

"I'm trying," Hunter smiled and kissed Ally's forehead. "You be good little girl. Daddy will be back tomorrow."

"Can we please go," Jason said as he jumped in the car.

"I'm glad you guys are friends," Ellie kissed Riley.

"We're trying," He smiled and jumped in the car.

"Bye," McKenzie kissed Mark's cheek. "I'll see you tomorrow, and I'll check on Levi tonight."

"Thanks…Bye."

Everyone could feel the tension between them, but they didn't know why.

….

Mick and Deb are sitting on Mick's couch. "I can't believe we are going to have a night all to ourselves."

"Well what do you have in mind?"

"A whole lot of this," he leans over and starts kissing her.

"This is going to be a great night," she giggles like a teenager.

…

Savannah walked into her house to see Drake and Charlie working on their history project together.

"Wow…It must be really cold in hell." She laughed. "I can't believe you guys are finally getting along."

"We kind of have too," Drake laughed.

"You know for the project." Charlie added.

"Right well either way I like it." Savannah sat next to Drake. "So I was thinking that we should go to Millie's party. I got a text."

Drake and Charlie look at each other.

Charlie shrugs and Drake nods. "Why not? Let's do it."

….

Jacey walks into Mouth's house. "The house looks great."

"I'm glad you like it. Where are the kids?"

"They are with Keith. You know I bet Connor and Chloe are going to like it. You know that I would love to meet them."

"One day Jacey…"

"You keep saying that, but it's been six months and they still haven't made it yet."

"They will." Mouth told her as he walked into a different room.

Jacey was determined to him and Rebecca back together.

….

"Alright buddy," Breanne and Carter walk into the kitchen. "We are going to make daddy a really big dinner."

"Yay! Daddy likes fried chicken. Can we make fried chicken?"

"Of course… Daddy is going to love it." Breanne wanted everything to be perfect.

…

"Okay…watch your step."

"You know you didn't have to bring me home."

"Yes I did. You don't need to be driving." He helped her to the couch. "I'm going to take care of everything."

"I need to pick up Drew."

"I'll take care of it, and then after we eat dinner I'll take him to Andy's. I'm sure he would love a sleep over, and then first thing in the morning I am going to come check on you."

"You don't have to do all of this." Summer reminded him.

"I know, but I want too." He smiled. "I promised that I would be here for you, and I'm not going anywhere anytime soon Summer."

"Thanks Jamie…you're a good guy."

"Thanks…"

….

"Hey," Lucas walks into Lily's house.

"Hey," she hugs him. "It is really good to see you."

"Are you okay?"

"No…Scarlet hates me."

"She doesn't hate you."

"Oh but she does…she really does."

Lily and Lucas sit on the couch. "Have you talked to Peyton? She went through this with Charlie."

"I already did that. Her words didn't really help though."

"Then you should talk to her again. I think it would help. And listen to me…Lily Roberts you are an incredibly strong person, and I think that you and Spencer can get through anything…even his love child coming into the picture."

'Thanks…for those kind words." She laughed. "I do love you."

"I love you too."

They share another hug.

…..

Millie and her friend Hannah are looking at the big house.

"This is going to be the best party Tree Hill has ever seen." Millie thought.

"You better believe it." Hannah replied.

….

Okay so let me know what you thought, and I will try to update soon!
