When keith suspects that he might lose Karen, after she begins dating Larry Sawyer he proposes to her, but she says no. Heartbroken he decides to leave Tree Hill with Lucas accompanying him, he pays Deb a last visit which ends with them sleeping together and Dan walking in on them.

[edit] Season Two
When Keith and Lucas hear that Dan has had a heart attack they make a difficult decision and decide to come back to Tree Hill. Keith to help Dan, takes over at the dealership, and it is here where he meets a pretty lady named "Jules". However it turns out that Dan had hired Jules, a woman he found on the internet, to make Keith fall in love with her and break his heart as revenge for Keith sleeping with Deb. However, Jules truly falls in love with Keith and they were about to get married. Lucas, who had also found out about Jules, chose to move in with Dan to spare Keith the pain although it set him at odds with his mother. But after Karen confronted her, Jules left Keith at the altar. Keith goes to Dan and asks him if Dan set him up. Dan tells him and they end up exchanging punches with Keith leaving a broken man. He also feels betrayed by Lucas and Karen as they didn't tell him eventhough they knew that "Jules" was being payed by Dan to break his heart. He decides to leave and find "Jules".
[edit] Season 3
He later found her but Emily Chambers (Jules's real identity) turns out to be very different from the one he fell in love with. Through a flasback we find out that he came back to Tree Hill, and had planned to kill Dan but is stopped by Deb, who does it herself, although this fails. He returns to Tree Hill a few months later and when Dan charges him with trying to kill him because Deb used his whiskey to drug Dan, he still covers for her, even though she left town. He then resumes his relationship with Karen and they fall in love and Keith asks Karen if she would marry him, and she says yes. Keith also asks Lucas if he has his permission to adopt Lucas, and Lucas also says yes. All was going so very well for Keith, he was going to marry the woman he had always loved, and be legally Lucas's father, but unfortunately this never happened since he was murdered in "With Tired Eyes, Tired Minds, Tired Souls, We Slept". Dan still thought that Keith was the one who tried to kill him and wanted to settle the score. Towards the end of season 3, we found out that Karen is pregnant with Keith's child and that Keith's ghost is haunting Dan.
[edit] Season 4
Strangely Nathan thinks that Keith was the one who pulled him out of the car when he got stuck in it underwater after the Bridge accident in Season 3 finale. This hasn't been resolved yet. It seems that Keith has become a kind of guardian angel to his nephews since he also helped Lucas during his near death experience.
