"Nathan." Felicity calls, walking out back. "Nate--" She stops when she finds Brooke and Peyton by her husband.
"Hey." Peyton greets.
"Hi." Brooke smiles.
"Hi." Felicity frowns. "Hi!" She greets. "Oh, my God. Hey." She rushes over, pulling them into a hug. "Wow. It-- it's been so long."
"I know." Peyton chuckles.
"What are you guys even doing here?" Felicity asks. "That sounded rude, but..."
"We came to see you guys." Brooke says.
"You came to Tree Hill to see us?" Felicity frowns.
"No, we came to this house to see you." Peyton chuckles.
"And..." Brooke trails off, looking over at the two kids as they walk out.
"Oh, Audrey, Justin, come here. You two remember Peyton and Brooke, right? Our friends." Felicity says.
"Hey, kids. How are you?" Peyton asks.
"You're both just as beautiful as the last time I saw you." Brooke smiles.
"Thanks, Aunt Brooke." Audrey gives her a small smile.
Nathan leaves.
"Nate?" Brooke calls, but he just continues to leave.
"I missed you guys." Felicity says, hugging her friends again. "Have you seen Clarissa yet? She'll be excited."
"No, not yet." Peyton says.
"Oh, but I can't wait to see those two little girls." Brooke gushes.
"Yeah. Yeah, they're gonna love you." Felicity chuckles. "Um, yeah, come in. Let's-- come on." They head inside.

"Man, I've always wanted one of these things." Lucas says.
"Yeah, me too." Skills says.
"Me, too." Jamie agrees.
Skills and Lucas put the derby car up.
"I think we should paint it red. You know, the red racer." Skills says.
"That's cool." Justin shrugs.
"Yo, kid, talk to me about the cape." He tells Jamie. "What's the real?"
"I'm a superhero." Jamie says.
"Is that right? Why don't you fly to the kitchen and get me a beer?" Skills tells him and Jamie goes to the kitchen.
"So, what's your take on the team's former leading scorer?" Lucas asks.
"Quentin? The kid's pretty good." Skills says.
"The kid's really good. Now we just got to figure out if we can get him to play a team game, you know?" Lucas says.
"Can I have pudding?" Jamie asks.
"You can read, right?" Skills asks and Jamie nods. "If the pudding says Junk or Fergie, you can have it."
"Thank you." Jamie says, running back to the fridge.
"Me too?" Justin asks.
"You got it." Skills says, the Scott boy rushing over to the fridge.
"Hey, and just one, all right?" Lucas tells them.
The two boys each get a pudding and Jamie grabs Skills a beer.
"You should derby race too." Jamie says.
