Haley, Lucas, Ellie and Jamie are waiting at the dock for Karen, Andy and Lily.

"So, you want to talk about this?" Asked Haley

"Well, you hate my book and you think I picked the wrong girl to spend the rest of my life with. What's there to talk about?" Asked Lucas

"Stop it. You know that I love Lindsey." Haley replied

"I like Lindsey." Ellie smiles "she's really nice

"Oh, but I don't? I mean, I think I do, but I guess I'm just lying to myself. Is that your story?" Lucas tells her

"Geez, see if I read anything you write ever again." Haley muttered

"Look, Hales, you can't say that the manuscript I gave you is about Peyton." Lucas tried

"It's about yearning and want, Luke. I think you wrote it about Peyton because you still love her." Haley says

"And I think it's about a guy watching the sky. But thanks for caring." Lucas sighs

"Well, whatever you do, just don't show those pages to Lindsey."  Haley tries

"I already did." Lucas says standing up an running over to Karen as she climbed of the yacht that had pulled up

"Mum!" Lucas exclaimed

"And?" Haley questioned

"Lucas?" Karen calls

"Mum." Lucas smiles

"Oh, my gosh! Oh, I missed you, baby boy!" Karen exclaimed pulling him into a hug

"Oh, I missed you, too!" Karen said

"Hey Grandma!" Ellie grinned Karen scooped her up.

"Oh I missed you too El." Karen smiled

"Haley! How are you?" Karen added pulling her into a hug.

"Good." Haley smiles,

"Oh, and who is this?"  Karen asked spotting Jamie

"It's me, aunt Karen... James Lucas Scott." Jamie tells her.

"No, you are not James Lucas Scott." Karen smiles picking up Jamie as well so she was now holding him and Ellie. Jamie Scott is a baby."

"I got bigger." Jamie smiled

"You got bigger! Oh, my goodness. Look at you." Karen smiled

"Where's lily?" Asked Ellie

"Yeah, ma. Where's my little sister?" Asked Lucas

"Your little sister is with Andy." Karen says looking up to the top of the yacht where Andy stood with Lily. They all waved up, and Andy and Lily waved back.

Haley opens the door when Jamie knocks, a bunch of flowers on his hand. Nathan and Lucas are arguing a few metres away.

"Oh, flowers from a gentleman." Haley smiles letting Jamie in.

"Hey, we can help you out with that." Lucas asked

"Hey, look who it is." Nathan adds

"Sorry, bad luck." Haley tells them before shutting the door.

There's another knock on the door and Lily and Ellie pulled it open

"Lily and Ellie. Oh, I sure did miss you. You think you can let your favourite guy in and come say hello?" He asked

"No! You're bad luck!" Lily and Ellie deadpanned slamming the door shut in his face.
