Episode 4 Chapter 5 Angel Baby
Nathan walks into Hunter's room. "Hey I need to show you something."
"No thanks…"
"I'm not giving you an option…Come on."
Hunter rolled his eyes and did as he was told.
They walked outside into the back yard by the pool.
"Dad I'm not really in the mood to swim."
"Do you see that right over there?" He points to the pool house.
"Yeah dad…the pool house."
"It's yours."
"What?"
"I understand that you need your space. You're a father, and you need to do it on your own." Nathan smiled. "I don't want you to leave. I talked to Brooke and we're going to fix this place up for the two of you. It will be yours."
Hunter smiled. "I can't believe you are doing this."
"I love you Hunter, and I know that you need your independence. And I'm going to give it to you."
"So I don't have a curfew and I don't have to follow your rules?"
"That's your choice Hunter, but if you choose not to follow my rules then you don't have free babysitting or free meals…living here will be like living on your own."
Hunter nodded. "But if I choose to live by your rules."
"I'll be more lenient with you…The rules won't be as tough, and I won't expect you to watch your sisters." Nathan touched his shoulder. "I just want you to be happy. I love you Hunter, and I'm sorry for being so hard on you. I just want to protect you."
"Well I kind of ruined that when I got my girlfriend pregnant."
"Yeah well you handled things so well…" Nathan smiled. "I'm so proud of you. You know I never told you this…but when your mom was pregnant with Jamie I handled it so poorly. I was so nervous, but you…you never were…"
"Oh hell yeah I was dad…" He smiled. "I still am."
"That's because you are a great father…because truth is I still am too. Your mom would be so proud of you Hunter." Nathan hugged him. "I am."
"Thanks dad…and I think Ally and I will be following your rules until I graduate."
"Sounds like a good deal to me." Nathan hugs him again.
…..
Spencer walks into Miranda's living room carrying Scarlett's bag. "Alright Scarlett are you ready?"
"Yeah daddy I'm ready to go home." She walks over to Miranda and gives her a hug. "Thank you for letting me stay."
"No problem sweet girl…Anytime." She gives her a kiss on the cheek. "I mean it Spencer…you better let her come to visit a lot."
"I will." Spencer hugs Miranda. "Thank you for keeping her. I think things are going to be better now."
"I hope so Spencer. I never meant to hurt you or cause you or Lily in pain…I just…"
"It's okay Miranda…I forgive you."
Miranda hugs him again. "Thank you."
"Come on Scarlett lets go home honey." He takes her hand. He was positive that things were going to get better for his family.
…
Riley walks into Ellie's house. She is standing in the kitchen. "Riley…what are you doing here?"
"I thought that maybe we should talk."
"I've missed you." Was all that she could say.
"I've missed you too…I really screwed things up, and I'm really sorry."
He walks closer to her.
"You were scared Riley. I was scared too. Things moved so quickly for us."
He touches her face. "I love being with you Ellie. I don't want to be without you."
"I don't want that either."
"Then what do we do?"
"We take things slow…a lot slower."
He nods. "I think that's a good idea." He kisses her lips softly. "I love you."
"I love you too Riley." She hugs him.
Jason watched from the stairs. He was glad that they were back together.
…..
McKenzie and Mark are both lying in the hotel room naked.
They had just had sex, and they were both silent.
It was definitely not what either of them expected.
It was horrible. Neither of them wanted to say anything.
What if it wasn't good because they didn't have a connection?
What if it wasn't good because the expectations were too high?
They didn't know what it was but….it wasn't good.
….
"Please…Daniel just leave."
"She's my daughter. We have to figure out what to do."
"No," Elizabeth yelled at him in a whisper. "I don't want Noah to know."
Outside in the hall Noah couldn't believe what he was hearing.
"I can't keep this a secret."
"Please for Emma. I want her to have a normal life…This…all of this would just be way too confusing on her." Elizabeth. "If you love her Daniel then you will agree to this….for your daughter." Elizabeth couldn't believe this was happening.
Noah shakes his head and walks away without either of them seeing him.
"Fine," Daniel agreed. "But I want to be apart of her life…at least as her uncle."
"We can handle that." Elizabeth told him. "You can be her Uncle."
Daniel had agreed, but he had a feeling that Noah would eventually find out the truth.
….
Mouth and Keith are standing by the door. "Next time we will definitely call." Keith smiled.
"No Keith…it's okay."
"It was nice to meet your family. Are they going to be living here?"
"The kids will be spending some time here, but Rebecca bought her own house."
"Does that mean…"
"Yeah Keith….my marriage is over. There was nothing left for us to do about it."
"Is it because you moved here?"
"We were falling apart long before I moved here." Mouth sighed. "I love her. I will always love her, but sometimes it just doesn't work out….I hate it because our children deserve better, but there is nothing left for us to do." Mouth shook his head.
Keith touched his shoulder. "If you need anything Jacey and I are here for you."
"Oh God Jacey…I was so mean to her the other day."
"She's totally over it…trust me that girl doesn't know when to let things go."
Mouth smiles, "Yeah well she is just trying to help."
"She tries," Keith chuckled.
"I'm glad she found you Keith. You're good for her."
"She's better for me." Keith smiled. "She may be a meddler but she's everything to me." Keith looks down at his two boys. "I better get going…they look tired."
"Thanks for bringing them by…I love those little guys."
"They love their grandpaw too." Keith smiled. He really enjoyed Mouth's company. He was a good guy, and Keith was glad that he was apart of Jacey's life.
….
Charlie walks into Savannah's room. "Hi…"
"Hi," she was surprised that he was there.
"Here," He hands her the letter. "I want you to read this."
She shakes her head. "I don't have to read it Charlie."
"No I want you too…because you are my sister and my best friend, and I need your opinion."
"I thought you were mad at me."
"I was, but I'm over it now."
"Good…I hate it when we're mad at each other."
"Yeah me too." He smiled. "Will you read the letter?"
"Yeah…" She takes the letter.
Savannah reads the letter.
Dear Lindsay,
I'm not really good with words that's my dad's and my sister Savannah's thing. They love to write, and they are good at it. But you probably already knew that about my dad. I have tried to write this letter several times, but I'm not really sure what I'm supposed to say or how I should say it.
I could write all these mean things about how you abandoned me and left a whole in my heart. But I think if I did that it would be a lie. Because although you did abandon me you didn't leave a whole in my heart….That's probably hard to read but it is the truth. When you left me you left me in the hands of two pretty amazing people. They gave me home and a life that anyone would be jealous of. And because of what you did I have this wonderfully amazing family. I have brothers and sisters and happiness. Sometimes I rebel against all the happiness, but I definitely am happy.
And the best part of my life is my sister Savannah. If you wouldn't have left me we probably never would have created this bond that is going to last a lifetime. She's my best friend, and the person that helps me through all the bad stuff that happens. She tries to protect me from getting my heart broken and she tries to keep all the bad things away. She's the best sister a guy could ask for.
I'm sorry I can't write you a letter that is filled with sadness because you weren't around. I can't do that because like I said I would be lying to myself and to you. All I can say is thank you for knowing when to let go and knowing exactly what I needed…an amazing family. I hope your life is amazing, and you find great happiness. I don't mind if you write me from time to time, but a visit just isn't what I want or need right now. I'm sorry. Maybe one day, but for now I think distance is the best thing for me and for you.
So thank you again for sacrificing for me. I will always appreciate the life I was given because of the sacrifice you made.
Thank You,
Charlie Scott
"Charlie," Savannah smiled and hugged him. "I love you."
"I love you too sis."
…
Brooke is sitting on her bed looking at the addresses Melinda gave her. She thought about her family and everything that had been going on with them.
They needed her more than she needed to find Chase's twin. She ripped the piece of paper up.
She sighed.
She didn't need it. Finding him wouldn't change the fact that Chase was dead, and he was never coming back even if he had a twin….the twin brother would never be Chase.
…..
Jacey and Lily are standing outside the elevator. "I can't believe this happened."
"Me either…I just hope Breanne doesn't kill her."
Lily looks at her. "Well just hope Jamie doesn't kill me."
Inside the elevator Summer is pushing and Breanne is holding her hand. "One more push Summer…Come on…You can do this."
"No I can't…It hurts…I need Chase."
Breanne touches Summer's heart. "He's right here…now push…you can do this."
Outside the elevator….
"Lily," Jamie calls out to her.
"Jamie I am so sorry."
"Is she okay?"
"She's in there…with Breanne."
Jamie's eyes grew larger. He couldn't believe they were stuck together.
"Alright," the maintenance man smiled. "It's all fixed."
The elevator starts moving and the doors open.
Summer and Breanne are inside with a new baby boy. Breanne hands the little baby to Summer.
"Thank you Breanne…" She couldn't stop smiling.
Jamie runs into the elevator. "Summer thank god you are okay." He looks at the little boy. "He's perfect."
Breanne kept thinking that he should be looking at her the way he was looking at Summer and her new son. Life just wasn't fair.
…..
Noah walks into Emma's hospital room with the flowers and little bear.
"Oh Noah I'm so glad you are finally here…The doctor came in and we can take Emma home tomorrow. She's doing much better."
"That's great honey." Noah leans in and kisses her. "I'm so glad she's okay. I was so worried."
"Me too…I love you Noah."
"I love you too Elizabeth." He decided not to tell her what he knew. He was hoping she would tell him sooner rather than later.
…..
Peyton walks into the house to see Zander resting his sweet little head on Lucas' chest.
She walks over to them and kisses Lucas' forehead.
"Hi…"
"You look exhausted."
"Yeah me and the little guy thought it was time for a nap." He kisses her. "I missed you today."
"I missed you too, but Elizabeth needed me today. She's going through so much right now. How did things go here?"
"They were great. I think Savannah and Charlie made up."
"Good job…was this before or after you let the kids have ice cream in the living room?" She laughed.
"How did you know that?"
"You left the ice cream scooper on the table smarty pants." She laughed. "But that's okay…I still love you."
Lucas pulls her next to him and Zander. "You look tired too."
"Suddenly your chest looks very comfortable." She takes Zander from Lucas and holds him as Lucas holds her.
Lucy and Natalie run downstairs and smile. They hop on the couch and cuddle next to their little brother and parents.
Savannah and Keith come downstairs next and join in.
They were one big happy family.
…
Breanne and Jacey were at the hospital. "So why exactly did we come to the hospital?" Jacey asked Breanne.
"I don't know. I…guess…I kind of…You know what we should just leave."
"You were hoping that Jamie would come crawling back to you because you helped Summer out."
"I was hoping for at least a thank you, but as soon as he saw Summer he didn't even realize I was in that elevator."
"Breanne I'm sorry."
Breanne shook her head. "No….you know Jamie and I are over. He's with Summer now."
"I didn't know that they were together."
"Didn't you see what I saw? The way he looked at her. He's falling in love with her." Breanne sighed. "And she's falling in love with him." A tear fell from her eye, "And Summer is going to get my happily ever after."
…..
Summer is holding her brand new baby boy.
Jamie walks in. "Wow the two of you look great." Jamie walks closer to the bed. "He's perfect Summer. Chase would be so proud."
Summer looks at him and smiles. "Yeah…" She looks down at the baby. "I'm pretty proud of him too."
"So what's his name?" Jamie touched the little guy's forehead.
"Do you want to hold him?"
Jamie nodded.
"Here you go…" Summer smiled. "He already loves you."
"I already love him. So what's his name?"
"Landon Chase Davis Scott…"
Jamie looked at her funny.
"I want him to have the Scott last name. I think that is something that Chase would want."
"Really?"
"Yeah besides you're his God Father…" She smiled again.
"Wow!"
"I mean if you want to be."
"Of course I want to be." He smiled at Landon. "I love you little man. You're daddy would be so proud of you."
"Um…" Summer hesitated. "Jamie there is something that I should…That I need to um…I have something that…" She was having a hard time saying the words.
Before she could tell him what she wanted to tell him Brooke, Andy, and Drew walked into the room.
"Oh my God," Brooke couldn't stop smiling. "Come here my precious little man." Brooke takes the baby from Jamie. "I'm gonna love you forever."
"Wow," Drew smiled. "I'm a big brother. I'm going to be the best big brother in the world."
Summer's heart melted and tears fell down her face. She was so happy. She missed Chase so much, but seeing his mom hold that little baby in her arms was a beautiful thing.
She knew that everything would be okay.
