Episode 2 Chapter 5 Choices

"Let me in," Lily yelled. She was beginning to freak out. She had been locked out for five minutes. Ansley and Scott were crying. Scarlet was just standing there. Lily was furious.

She thought about breaking a window, but she didn't want to do that. Hearing the crash of the window would scare Ansley and Scott to death, and she didn't want to do that. They already seemed upset. At least from what she could hear.

"Please let me in…" Lily wiped away her tears as she began to cry. She hated that little girl, and she knew that was wrong, but she did. She absolutely hated her because of the strain she was putting on her marriage. It was all her fault that everything seemed to be falling apart.

She heard Spencer's car pull into the driveway. "Spencer," she yelled for him.

"Lily, what are you doing out here?"

"Your daughter locked me out of the house…Just open the damn door." She yelled at him. She didn't mean to yell at him, but she was so upset and it just came out.

Spencer opened the door and Lily ran to her crying babies.

Scarlet saw her dad and ran into his arms. "I'm so glad you are here daddy."

Spencer didn't know what to do. He felt like he was in the middle, and he hated it.

….

"Alright Millie…Why don't you talk about it?"

"I don't want to talk to you."

"That's understandable, but I want to listen to what you have to say."

"I have nothing to say…So why don't we just sit here and you'll get paid and my dad will be happy."

"Your dad?" She questioned. "You didn't say your mom?"

"My mom is dead, but I'm sure you already knew that."

"What about Brooke?"

"Brooke's a bitch, and she won't be apart of our lives much longer. She'll do something to screw up everything like she did last time." Millie spoke with so much anger in her voice.

Louise nodded. It was obvious that Millie was so upset because of Brooke. At least they had a starting point.

…

Jamie and Carter are about to walk into the café. "Hey guys," Jessica says as she walks out of the café.

"Hey Jessica," Carter gave her a hug.

"How did it go with Peyton?'

"She signed me to the label. I start working on stuff tomorrow."

'Yes," Jamie smiled and the hugged her. "That's awesome."

From across the street Breanne had seen them hugging. She got in her car and drove away. They had only been broken up for one day and Jamie was already moving on with someone else.

….

Jacey opens her door to see her dad standing in front of her. "Hey dad I wasn't expecting you."

"You know that's funny because I wasn't expecting my wife to show up at my front door this morning either, but she did."

"Oh wow…Rebecca is here." Jacey was excited.

"You should not have sent her that text message Jacey. Our marriage is over. I told you that."

"No…You love her."

"Yeah well somewhere along the way she stopped loving me." Mouth looked down. "Just stay out of it Jacey. My life and marriage is none of your business. So just stay out of it." Mouth yelled and then instead of staying he walked out.

Jacey couldn't believe how mad he was. She was not expecting that at all.

…

Elizabeth and Noah were lying on the couch. Noah slipped away when he heard Emma crying. He walked into the nursery and picked up his crying daughter. She was burning up. Noah was beginning to really worry about her.

Maybe Elizabeth was right to worry.

Noah didn't know what he would do if anything ever happened to Emma or Elizabeth.

They were his whole world.

…..

Lily was in the kitchen putting away the groceries. She was still upset.

Spencer walked in. He could tell that she wasn't happy. "Do you need some help?"

"No I've got it." She snapped at him.

"Lily…"

"Where's Scarlet? Did you talk to her?"

"She's in her room. She was just playing."

Lily's face turned red as if she had just spent all day out in the sun. "Oh yeah right Spencer," her voice wasn't loud, but it wasn't quiet either. "She did it on purpose. I can't believe you aren't going to do anything about it."

"She's going through a lot Lily. We just have to give her time."

"You know what," she began to yell. "I am so damn sick of hearing that. It has been six months…Six damn months Spencer…She has had plenty of time to adjust. And you have to stop letting her get away with it. The kids could have been hurt when she was playing her so called joke."

"I'm sorry Lily, but…"

"But nothing…I am sick of hearing the buts. You better do something with your daughter because I can't take much more of this." She slammed the can of tuna on the counter and walked out of the kitchen.

Spencer knew exactly what he could do. He didn't want to, but he thought that it would help.

…..

Brooke and Nathan are in the kitchen. They hadn't been home long and as soon as they brought Millie back she ran straight up to her room.

They were both surprised to see that Hunter hadn't made it home. They had after all grounded him.

"I guess he didn't take me seriously." Nathan sighed. "I know that he is a responsible kid, but I'm his dad and he is supposed to listen to me."

"Nathan…"

"No…you know what he just doubled his punishment. It's going to be home and school for him for three weeks."

"Nate," Brooke thought it would be best if he calmed down before Hunter got home.

"I don't care if he is a dad. He's still a teenager, and he is still my responsibility."

Nathan stopped speaking when he heard Hunter come in with Ally.

"Hunter, could you come in here please?"

"Yeah," Hunter walked in after he placed Ally into her playpen. He knew that his dad was going to be mad at him. He was supposed to be home right after school, but he chose not to come home.

"Where were you? I thought I told you to be here after school."

"You did," Hunter sat down on the bar stool. "But I had something that I had to take care of."

"And what exactly was that?"

"I'm going to get an apartment dad. I'm moving out."

Nathan and Brooke looked at each other. "Excuse me."

"I think that it would be best if I raised Ally on my own. McKenzie is going to help me."

"No…You will have to kill me first." Nathan yelled. "Because that's not going to happen."

….

McKenzie walked up to her house and saw that Mark was waiting on her. "Hey what are you doing here?"

"I thought maybe we should talk."

"Yeah me too…I actually have something to tell you."

"Okay."

"Hunter and I are going to move into an apartment together. We're going to raise Ally together."

"No way."

"Yeah…I think it is a good idea. I would get to see my daughter every day."

Mark couldn't believe what he was hearing. "Are you in love with him?"

"No," McKenzie really wasn't. "I love you." That was the first time she had ever said those words to him.

"You love me?"

"Yes I love you."

Mark just stood there. Not knowing what to say.

McKenzie had the feeling that he didn't love her back, and if he didn't that was going to break her heart.

…..

Peyton walked into the house. Lucas was sitting on the couch reading.

"Hi," she smiled at him. "I'm sorry I'm late. Have you already eaten?"

"Yeah we all have. The kids are upstairs doing their homework or playing or something."

"You are such a good father."

"Zander is asleep, but you could wake him if you want."

"No I don't want to do that." She sat down next to her husband. "I had a good day at work, but you can't take every day off to take care of the kids."

"I already have."

"What are you talking about?" she rested her head on his chest.

"I quit."

"What?"

"I'm going to be a stay at home dad so that you won't lose everything you have worked so hard for. I can't let that happen."

"Lucas you don't have to do that."

"I know I don't have to, but I want too."

Peyton really had married the best man in the world.

"I love you Lucas Scott."

Lucas leaned in and kissed her. He knew he was doing the right thing for his family.

….

Spencer answers the knock at the door.

"Miranda," he was glad to see her.

"Where's Scarlet?"

"Aunt Miranda," she ran into her arms. "I'm so happy that you are here."

Miranda smiled at Spencer. She was happy that she was there too.

Lily watched from the doorway. She kind of hoped that Miranda would take the little girl and run away.

…

Ellie walks into her bathroom and looks at the pregnancy test she had taken a few days ago. She couldn't believe that she was pregnant. She had no idea what she was going to do, but she knew that she had to tell Riley. He had to know that she was pregnant.
