We all know that Chad Michael Murray is returning for an episode of One albero Hill's ninth and final season. Hell, we spent weeks freaking out about it! But, a little birdie (ahem, me) heard that he may be back for più than one episode. Yes. For real.

While at Chad's NYC book signing tonight (for his graphic novel Everlast -- get it!) a fan yelled, "Come back to One albero Hill, Chad!" Chad nicely smiled and replied, "I did! We've shot one episode so far."

That's when I stopped in my tracks. Wait. A. F*cking. Second. "So far?" I asked (loudly). Oops. No one else seemed to catch it! WHAT?!? Was this just a slip of the tongue o will Chad be back for more?!? "We'll see," he detto with an innocent grin.

Come on. Maybe Chad was just teasing us, but either way, The CW execs better their their cards right! CMM is ratings gold!

Stay tuned for my interview with Chad as well as foto from the event! I totally fan-girled out on him and he was super nice about it. #Embarrassing #WorthIt
