On the heels of One Tree Hill's return to The CW this Monday, James Lafferty has a few teases for fans.

In an interview with E! News, the actor previews the storylines to come on One Tree Hill, including key information about the season finale. Will it be the series finale? Let's hope not.

"It's realistic that it could be our last season," Lafferty said, as the network has not revealed its plans for the show yet. "I'm signed on. Everybody's signed on. It's all ready to go. There's been no conflict on our parts. It's up to the powers that be."

Instead of stewing over that sad news, let's take a look ahead. What can viewers expect over the next few episodes?

"They're going to see their favorite characters making a lot of important decisions in their lives. That's not to say there's finality to it, but there's definitely things that are going to happen to the main characters that are going to affect the rest of their lives."

As for the May 17th seventh season finale?

Lafferty said it will find the group in Utah, which is the location of Julian's movie premiere.

"That is our season finale, us going to Utah. You can speculate on the reasons why we would be in Utah."

You heard the man, fans. Speculate away!
