season 2, episode 19 - i'm wide awake, it's morning

JOSIE CAMERON SCOTT WAS IN HER ROOM while her husband was outisde in the living room. For the first time since they got married this is the first time they are spending it completely apart. Josie couldn't stand it, she was tossing and turning all night, she couldn't fall asleep knowing her marriage was about to crumble right before her. Perhaps her mother-in-law was right, they were young to get married, they have different dreams and now those said dreams are getting in the way. Josie Cameron-Scott decided to wake up extra early, she made breakfast quietly for her and her husband, she left his platter inside the fridge and she walked out of the apartment. She couldn't be inside knowing Nathan wouldn't want to talk to her, so she went to James' apartment, she figured they could both be miserable.

Meanwhile, Nathan Scott was woken up by the sound of beer bottles being clinked. Nathan's eyes fluttered open, sitting up he turned his head over to the sound only to find Cooper Lee standing there with a bottle in his hand.

"What are you doing here Coop?" Nathan asked standing up from the couch, stretching.

"Are you just going to stand there, come give your Uncle Coop a hug." Cooper told him placing his bottle on the kitchen counter and stretched his hands out so Nathan can hug him. Nathan went ahead and did that as Cooper chuckled. "It's good to see you, kid."

"It's good to see you, too Coop."

"So your mom called me and I got to tell you, Nate if my big sister is calling me then something is wrong." Cooper told him heating up the pan before going to the fridge rummaging for some eggs only to find a plate with alumium foil on top with a post-it note with Josie's handwriting. "So nothings wrong with her."

Nathan furrowed his eyebrows in confusion not exactly sure what he was talking about. "What?"

"Well, I had thought something was wrong with your wife seeing as she's not here right now but from the looks of this plate of food, she cares about you." Cooper told him. "I'm here for perspective. I'm here to adjust yours."

Nathan sighed, "She's great it's just she didn't tell me about a scholarship for an Arts school in New York."

"You're terrified?"

"I seen the way it affected our friends. One chased her dream and the other is stuck in misery for missing her." Nathan shrugged, "She'll be able to choose art and music in New York and forget about me, not only that she isn't sure what she wants. She doesn't know whether to stay or go and I don't want to be the one to keep her from dream, her hesitating says enough."

Cooper decided to distract Nathan and take him into the arena where the race car drivers race, and to perhaps maybe race with him, so Nathan also decided to invite Lucas. Cooper and Lucas were taking the lead in walking, Nathan trailing behind them. So once they arrived inside the arena they took in awe of how big it was.
