Jamie Scott (One Tree Hill)

Season 4

During her senior year at Tree Hill High School, Haley James Scott fell pregnant. Although at first anxious with having a child at such a young age, both Haley and Nathan Scott grew fond of the idea and although nervous, were very excited for the birth of their child. During her pregnancy, Haley began having serious pains in her stomach, which forced her to collapse. As she was rushed to the hospital, the doctor assured her that everything was alright with her child and confirmed that her child was a boy. This news pushed Nathan to win the State Championship. Trying to get the best start to her child's life, Haley played Jamie classical music whilst pregnant, but unknown to her, Nathan played rap music to his child when she fell asleep, possibly relating to Jamie's love of hip-hop and rap music in his childhood.

On the day of Nathan and Haley's graduation June 13, Haley went into labor during her valedictorian speech. She was forced to stop her speech halfway through and was rushed into Tree Hill Hospital. At the hospital, Haley gave birth to James Lucas Scott, named so after his mother's maiden name and his uncle's first name. His parents soon found out that Jamie would only settle for rap music, much to Nathan's happiness. Haley and Nathan also invited Brooke Davis and Lucas Scott to be his godparents, which they happily accepted. With this in mind, Lucas accepted a coaching assistant position for Nathan's college basketball team so he can be to Jamie what his Uncle Keith was to him, which Haley was more than pleased about.

Missing years

Jamie is raised for the first years of his life by his father, mother and uncle whilst they go to college. He was present when his father won his national basketball championship.
