Episode 4 Ch.5 No Boundaries

Back in Elizabeth's room Peyton holds her granddaughter for the first time. "Elizabeth she is absolutely beautiful."

"Yeah I kind of like her."

"Where are her adoptive parents? Shouldn't they be here?"

"Um no…"

"Did Noah not call them? He's the one that called me. I didn't know that he knew about your pregnancy."

"He just found out, and mom you have to promise that you aren't going to be mad."

"Why would I be mad?"

"I'm keeping my daughter."

"Really?" Peyton was pleasantly surprised. "Are you sure about that?"

"Yeah…I don't know why I ever thought I could give her away. She's amazing and as far as I am concerned Noah is her father, and he always will be." Elizabeth smiled at her daughter in Peyton's arms.

Noah walks into the room. "They said I could come in and see my daughter."

"You guys know that there are going to be a lot of questions."

"We're gonna handle them mom. We're gonna handle them together."

"She's perfect Elizabeth."

Elizabeth smiled. She thought so too.

"Can I hold her?" Noah asked Peyton.

Peyton looked at Elizabeth and then back at her granddaughter. "Of course you can. You are her father after all." She handed Noah the baby and he smiled from ear to ear.

"Mom, are you okay with my decision?"

"It was always your decision to make, and after my last visit I had a feeling that you were going to keep her. What's her name going to be?"

"Well Stella, the woman that was supposed to adopt her, once told me that she wanted to name her Emma. It was a family name or something, and I always thought it fit. She also asked me what I wanted her middle name to be, and I wanted it to be Peyton. I thought Emma Peyton was the perfect name for the perfect baby."

Noah looked at the girl he was going to love as his daughter. "Emma Peyton Colby…that's a perfect name."

Peyton was honored to have her granddaughter named after her.

Lily is in the dressing room at another boutique. They had been to so many, and she had yet to find the perfect dress. She looked in the mirror to reveal the dress she was wearing. It was absolutely perfect. It was a halter dress with tiny beads all around the neck. It was really simple and flowed to the ground.

"Guys I think this is the one."

She walked out to where the girls were. "Whoa," Summer was the first to speak. "That's perfect."

"Yeah I thought so too. I feel kind of like a princess."

"I think Aidan is going to love it."

Lily smiled, "I think he will too. I know I do." Lily knew she had found her perfect wedding dress for the perfect man. She was going to marry the man of her dreams in that dress. That was her plan.

Julie hands Spencer the letter. "You are a beautiful writer. You use your words so perfectly when you are writing to her or about her."

"Julie…please let me explain…."

"There is nothing left to explain. I talked to Rob. He says that I could live with them until I can find another place."

Spencer looked at her confused. "I don't want you to leave."

"And I don't want to be second, but that is what is going to happen if I stay with you. If you didn't still love Lily you would have thrown the letter away. You wanted me to find it."

"I'll put you first. I want to be with you."

"I never stopped loving you, and I wish that I would have made it to that airport because I know we would be together. We have always been meant to be together. I have to say I loved that night we spent together, and I think that we can make this work because I don't know who I am without you." Julie stopped and wiped the tears away from her eyes.

"I'm sorry."

"Sorry just isn't good enough Spencer. I love you, but I'm not her." She grabbed her purse. "You should fight for her. Every girl wants a Prince that will fight for her. Your Lily's and I'll find mine one day."

"Julie…" he didn't know what to say. Nothing he said was going to make things better for him.

"I'll get my things later when I know you want be here." Julie walked to the door and took one last look at Spencer and then left.

Spencer sat down on the couch and looked at the letter. He thought he had thrown it away, but he didn't. He should have.

Nathan walks into COB. "Hi…" Brooke says as he walks closer to the desk.

"I just came by to tell you that I'm going to be in Tree Hill for a while."

"Oh…"

"I need to spend sometime with the kids."

"Right…and you probably want to spend sometime with Haley's look a like."

"She's a nice girl."

"Yeah…"

"Brooke…"

"Nathan just go home and be with the kids. I'm busy here."

"We should talk."

She shook her head. She didn't want to talk. "I really am busy. Just go home."

Nathan shook his head. They really needed to talk. Along the way they stopped communicating, and it wasn't good for their relationship. He sighed and walked out of the store. They had major problems, and they needed to stop avoiding them.

"Hey baby…have you talked to the doctor yet?" Lucas asked as he answered the phone. "Do you have cancer?" He was anxious to know the results.

"No I haven't talked to the doctor yet. I probably should have called to tell you that Elizabeth just gave birth to your granddaughter."

"What?" Lucas couldn't believe it. "Isn't too soon?"

"The baby is perfect. She weighed six pound two ounces. God Luke I can't wait until you see her. You're gonna love her."

"Peyt…sweetie I'm never going to get to see her. Elizabeth is giving her up for…."

Peyton interrupted. "She changed her mind. She's keeping the baby, and she and Noah are going to raise her."

"I can't…"

"I know it is a lot to take in, but it was her decision to make."

"Did she name her?"

"Emma Peyton," Peyton smiled. "I can't wait for you to see her."

"Me either…Tell Elizabeth I love her."

"I will."

"I love you too, grandma…." He laughed.

"Ha, Ha Grandpa....I love you too." Peyton smiled. "I'll talk to you later."

"Okay….give my granddaughter a kiss for me."

"Okay…I will."

Peyton hung up the phone, and it rang as soon as she hung it up. "Hello….yes this is she…Okay…yeah…oh my God….thank you so much…" Peyton let out a sigh of relief. "Thank you…"

Peyton didn't have cancer. She was going to be okay. Everything was going to be okay. For a day that could have been bad it had turned out pretty good.

Jacey walks into her bedroom and Eddie hits her in the face. "Oh My God," she screams out. "What was that for?" She cried out.

"Where were you?"

"I was at the store."

He hit her again. "I went by the store. You weren't there. So I'm going to ask you again where were you?"

"I went to see Keith."

Eddie grabbed her wrist. "You better start listening to me or it isn't going to be good for you."

Jacey has tears in her eyes as Eddie throws her on the bed, and walks into the bathroom.

………………………………………………………………………………………….

Keith calls Jacey and gets her voicemail. "Hey I just wanted to thank you for helping me today. My other classes went better, and I think that things are going to be okay. Just call me later. Thanks again. Bye Jace." Keith hung up the phone. He had a feeling that she still loved him, and he knew that he still loved her.
