IT WAS Another day in the gym at Tree Hill, this time Charlotte was sitting in between her parents, cheering for both Lucas and Colin. It was fourth quarter and Lucas was having a better game and so was Colin.The clock was at 6 seconds and Colin was passing the ball in, Nathan was trapped in between defense and Lucas found an open spot. Colin looked at Lucas then threw him the ball, he threw it up as the buzzer went off.
Charlotte covered her eyes and heard cheering so she immediately uncovered them, everyone was running to Lucas and hugging and Charlotte was jumping up and down and so were her parents.

When the guys got out of the locker room, Charlotte stood with her parents, along with Karen and Keith as they waited for Colin and Lucas. Everyone congratulating the two of them, Colin for the good assist and Lucas for the winning shot.
Colin finally got out of the locker room and was met with open arms from his family.
"Who rocks?" His family started their usual chant.
"I rock." Colin finished with a slightly embarrassed smile as he rubbed the back of his neck.
"Who rocks!"
"I rock!" He met with his family and gave them a hug, nearly crushing him.
It was a rule after everything that their family had accomplished, that they would have to do that chant, it started when their dad got a business deal and said he rocked and the tradition continued on, even when it was embarrassing.
Dalton put his arm around Colin, and Colin put his around Charlie, and Charlie put hers around Yasmine's, like a family. Nathan and Charlie briefly making eye contact again, which did not go unnoticed by Colin.
"I saw that." He whispered into her ear. "Stalker." She responded. He flicked her forehead once more, "Colin!"

"Nothing is too big, too small, too tragic.." The Burning Boat announcer spoke, Charlotte was with Haley and Lucas still receiving congratulations from everyone who was at the game."You are just blowing up." Haley said who missed the big game due to picking a shift up at the Cafe.
"Well, yeah, man. I'm a big star now. You better hope I keep you both around." He let out a soft ooh to both of the girls shocked faces,
"You know, I'm gonna try not to lose sleep over that. Thanks." Charlotte pats the boys shoulder and lets out a tiny laugh.
"So, last night.. I'm watching Scandinavian week on the history channel.."
"Because?" Both Charlotte and Lucas asked her, "Because, Brunette Vikings guys are hot. Anyway, this Burning Boat thing is a total rip-off of a Viking funeral. Did you know that?" Haley rambled on, Charlotte playfully yawned and stretched her arms out when she heard a younger voice speak up behind the trio.
