Chapter 3 - Nathan and Haley

Haley was back at Lucas hospital room as soon as visiting hours started and she brought a guest with her. When she arrived at the room she that Lucas was up and just staring out the window. She knocked on the door to bring him out of his trance.

Lucas jumped at the knock at the door and as he turned his somber expression turned into smile as he saw Haley and the little boy she was carryingon her hip. Haley sat in the near by chair by the bed and turned the little boy so the he could sit on her lap.

"Lucas this is your nephew James Lucas Scott. Jamie this is your uncle Lucas," she said with the biggest smile on her face.

"Hi," the little boy said. Lucas waved at Jamie.

"Wow he looks so much like me," he joked. "Is there something you want to tell me Hales," he

said teasingly.

"Shut up Luke. He's all Nathan's," she said.

"So how is my brother?" he questioned.

"He's good is at Duke right now but he is own his way here to see you," she answered. "He would have been here yesterday but everything has been crazy."

"It's great that he is living his dream," he said. "What have you been up to besides taking care of this little guy right here," he said as he tickled Jamie in the stomach and he let out a laugh.

Haley laughed at Lucas playing with Jamie then she faced her friend and said, "Well I'm going for my teaching degree in music. I figure its the best way to both things that I love teaching and music," she replied.

"That's great Hales I'm happy for you," he said.

There was a long pause as Lucas pondered how to approach the next to subject. He took a deep breath and said, "So where are Peyton and Brooke?"

Haley thought about what was the best way to answer his question. So she said, "Well I called Brooke to let her know you where awake but I got her voice mail and I didn't want to leave something like that in a message so I told her it was important that she call me back." Lucas nodded his head as his friend continued. "She called this morning and told me she is own her way back to Tree Hill and she said she wanted to be the one to fill you in on what's going on in her life and Peyton's."

Lucas could tell there was something else that was going on but he decided to let it go until he talk to Brooke. He knew that she would tell him the truth about what was going.

Haley and Lucas talk for a couple more hours until Nathan arrived at the hospital. Nathan entered the room and hugged his brother.

"It's good to have you back Luke," he said.

"It's good to be back little brother," he replied.
