Episode 5 Ch.1 The Great Unknown

Two Weeks Later…..

Elizabeth and Noah stare at their beautiful baby girl. "I can't believe she's two weeks old."

"She looks just like you Elizabeth."

"Good…she's supposed to look like me…I am her mother after all."

"Are you sure we can handle this?"

"Yes…we've packed all of my things, and we have waited two weeks to make sure that we have everything figured out…I'm ready to get back to Tree Hill."

"Yeah me too…I'm just a little worried."

"Why are you worried? Everything is going to be okay. At least that's what you keep telling me."

"I have this feeling that my mom is going to ask a lot of questions, and what if she doesn't believe me?"

"She's gonna believe us, and I think she is going to love her granddaughter." Elizabeth picked up her daughter. "Yeah baby girl….everyone is going to love you."

Peyton is downstairs with Lily cleaning up Elizabeth's old room. They are going to be living in the two rooms connected by the bathroom. Lily will be staying in her bedroom. The very downstairs also had a living area and pool table. It was like a small apartment.

"I still can't believe Elizabeth had a baby. Why didn't she tell anyone?"

"I already told you Lily." Peyton smiled at her. She had been over the story with all the kids in the family several times in the past two weeks. It was of course a lie, but the truth was just too much for everyone to handle.

"I know. I just wow…You and Luke are grandparents."

"Yeah we are, but Emma is going to call me Nana not grandma…I am way too young to be called grandma."

Lily laughed. "Once I move out they can do something really cool to my room."

Peyton shook her head. "Lucas will never let anyone touch your room. You will always have a bedroom in this house."

"That's good to know."

Lily continued to help her clean up the room and put new sheets on the bed. They also decorated the nursery for the baby. They wanted everything to be perfect for Elizabeth and her new family.

Hunter was in Math class until someone came in and said that their was someone there to see him.

When Hunter walked outside he saw a very pregnant McKenzie waiting on him. "What are you doing here? You should be at home resting." Hunter was mad that she was out of the house. "You need to take care of yourself."

"I just wanted to see you."

"Yeah I highly doubt that." Hunter rolled his eyes. "I know why you are here. You aren't going to do anything to change my mind. I want to raise my child. It is my responsibility."

"I can't do it."

"Yeah well I'm not you, and you know my dad might not be around much now, but when I was little he always told me that you never say that you can't do anything and you always take responsibility for your actions because no one else can."

McKenzie just stared at him not saying a word.

"You may not be willing to do that, but I don't want anyone else to raise my child." Hunter sighed, "I'll see you in court."

McKenzie was scared. She just wanted her baby to have a good life, and she was afraid that Hunter would be unable to give that to their child. She knew she wasn't ready, and she didn't know how he could possibly be ready. They were both just way too young.

Brooke is at work, and Julian walks in with her morning coffee. He had started bringing her coffee every morning about two weeks ago. They had become close over the past two weeks. Julian was hoping that it would turn into something more, but Brooke just liked the company. He made her feel special and important again, and that was all she ever needed.

"Wow those sketches are looking pretty good."

"Thanks…I feel like I've been here all night."

"Well then you need to take a break. How about we go to dinner tonight?"

"I don't know Julian…." She wasn't sure that she trusted herself.

"Come on its just dinner, and you need a break. You work way too hard."

"Fine…" Brooke agreed. "I do need a break, and the kids are going to be with Deb tonight."

Julian smiled. He was hoping tonight would be the night that Brooke finally realized what she wanted.

Ava and Nathan are eating breakfast together. "You know what, Nathan?"

"What?"

"I really have enjoyed getting to know you." Ava smiled. "You are an amazing man Nathan Scott."

"Thanks Ava…You are pretty amazing too…You know you are a lot like Haley…I know you look like her, but you have good heart just like she did." Nathan smiled. He loved spending time with Ava because of her resemblance to Haley, but he also loved her personality. She was a good woman.

Spencer is at Michelle and Andy's house. He spent the night on the couch. "Thanks for letting me stay over. I just didn't feel like being at home alone."

"Do you miss Julie?"

Spencer nodded his head, "Yeah…"

"You want to know what I think?" Andy asked.

"I'm sure you are going to tell me anyways."

"I think that you miss having someone around. I don't think it is Julie that you miss."

"Andy…"

"Spencer I think you should listen to him." Michelle told her son. "I know that you loved Julie, but you have always loved Lily."

"Lily is getting married." Spencer hated even thinking about it.

"Yeah but not for two more week. You need to fight for her." Michelle touched her son's shoulder. "You may not win, but at least you tried. That's all that matters Spencer."

Spencer nodded his head. He didn't know what he was going to do. He just needed to figure out things.

Aidan walks into Lily's bedroom carrying one single red rose.

Lily smiled, "What are you doing here?"

"This is for you." He handed her the rose. "I was hoping that we could spend the day together. Will you spend the day with me Lily Scott?"

"Yes I will Aidan Sommers." She wrapped her arms around him, and he kissed her. "Or we could just stay in." She laughed, and kissed him again.
