(A/N) Hello my fellow One Tree Hill lovers. It's me again. I know it has seriously been forever since I have updated my other story. For those who were reading that it is on a long hiatus until I get inspiration for it and it will have a chapter added explaining why.. Anyways, this story is my baby. I have been working on it for 2 years and I'm not yet completely finished with it but I know where its going and have it all mapped out. I have actually been contemplating whether I want to add it, but I decided to go for it. WARNING: This story is a T rated story. It will have some M rated moments, but I will let you know when they will be in a chapter. (This Chapter is a T, but has some M relations toward the end.

So now on with the story… This story is about Peyton & Lucas. (of course) It is set back in Junior year and it is pretty much my way of putting season 1. There are a lot of changes though some story lines are the same. Some story lines the show used for certain characters will be used on different characters in this story.

Sorry for the longgggg AN. Read, Please review, its greatly appreciate, and most importantly Enjoy! (: -Shelby.

(FLASHBACKS&THINGS FROM SHOW ARE IN ITALIC!)

"Lucas, I made a mistake. When you said you wanted to be with me, I got scared… and I pushed you away…"

"Peyton…"

"But the truth is I want all the same things you want. I do. And I want them with you."

Lucas smiled and walked closer to the beautiful blonde. He rested his hand on her neck gently and looked down at her. "I want everything with you."

Peyton smiled and exhaled loudly in relief. "I want us." Lucas nodded and smiled. He pulled her close and pressed his lips to hers as she melted into his embrace.

*The next day*

"Peyton walked down the school hallway. She smiled as she met the gaze of the gorgeous blue eyed boy, he smiled back to her and shut his locker beginning to walk to her. He reached her and grabbed her hand then kissed her lips. She chuckled softly. "Morning."

He smiled. "Walk you to English?" She nodded.

They both wrapped an arm around each other and walked down the hall attached at the hip. Heads turned and whispers were heard, and Peyton and Lucas knew that word about them as a couple would fly.

"Hey Broody." Brooke said taking a seat across from Lucas on the bench. "Hi Brooke."

Brooke realized the silent awkwardness. "Lucas, its OK. Peyton already told me about last night."

"She did?" He questioned.

"Yeah. I'm happy for you two. Seriously. It was about time the two of you came to your senses." And she was. Brooke was happy for the two blondes. She didn't see her and Lucas working out so she liked the fact that she just knew Peyton and him would.

"You sure?" He questioned again. Not wanting to cause a problem with the two girls.

Brooke smiled. "Definitely." She paused and took a deep breath. "Here's the thing. And that's if I know one thing its that Peyton deserves to be happy more than anyone. She's been through so much and she's so strong. But she spends to much time making sure everyone around her is happy and not enough time making sure she is. She is amazing and she has a big heart, and she is trusting you with it. So am I. Just. Don't screw it up, OK?"

Lucas smiled, he liked Brooke and admired how great of a friend she was to Peyton. "I wont, and I never planned to."

"Oh. I know you wont… Cause if you do you have to answer to me." Brooke smirked and they both laughed.

Peyton walked up and took a seat by Lucas. "What's so funny?" She asked confused.

"Oh nothing. Were just talking about you." Brooke teased.

"Only good things I hope." Peyton inquired.

"As always." The brunette grinned.

Lucas laughed at there banter and looked to his watch. "I gotta get home, my moms calling from Italy at 4 and I promised Keith I'd be there."

"Yeah I have to get home. Text you later ?" Brooke said walking away.

The couple laughed and shook their heads at the retreating brunette. "So, Keith's going to try and make supper tonight. You want to come over?"

"Sure." Peyton smiled softly.

"5:30?"

"Sounds good."

"Great." They shared a kiss and walked to their separate cars.

"So Luke, Thanks for being home tonight. I know it meant a lot to your mom that she got to talk to you." Keith said as he closed the oven door.

"Yeah, its no problem. I like talking to my mom. I just wish she wouldn't worry about me so much."

"Luke. She's your mom, she'll always worry about you." Lucas nodded and went back to setting the table for three. "So uh, this girl that's coming over. What's the story?"

"Peyton is…"

"Wa, wa, wa, wait a minute." Keith stuttered. "Peyton Sawyer?" Lucas nodded. "Wow… Man you have had the biggest crush on her forever. How'd you get her to finally talk to you." Keith teased with a chuckle.

Lucas glared and then laughed, although he was a little embarrassed. "I guess I just got the charm."

Keith smirked. "So is she the tattoo mystery girl?"

"No that would be Brooke." Lucas laughed.

"Wait, you're telling me you got two cheerleaders?"

"Its not like that. Brooke went on a date, had fun and didn't work out. Peyton's my girlfriend. It's different with her."

"Define different."

"Brooke and I are friends, Peyton and Brooke are best friends. And Peyton is my girlfriend."

"What's so different?"

"Well… I love Peyton." He admitted.

Keith was a little shocked. "Does uh she know that?"

"No. And I don't think I'll be telling her for a while."

"Why not?"

"We just started dating. Its pretty serious already I guess. But with are recent history I don't want to freak her out. Its complicated." Lucas explained, not fully getting his reasoning himself.

"Alright. You just started dating a gorgeous cheerleader and your bringing her here, for my cooking? Hah! Good luck with that." Keith laughed.

Lucas joined him. "Don't worry. I don't think she's going anywhere anytime soon."

"Really?" Keith speculated. They both looked toward the door as the door bell rang.

"I guess I'm just a lucky guy." Lucas said, then opened the door and greeted the blonde with a quick kiss. "Hey you." Peyton smiled and returned with a "Hi." She then lifted her arms showing the object she was holding. "I brought pie." She said, smiling sweetly.

Lucas grinned. "Looks great." They shared another quick kiss and Lucas faintly heard Keith whisper to himself. "Lucky, Ill say." Peyton pulled away and looked at her boyfriend with a raised brow.

He just smiled and shook his head as he pulled her inside. "Keith, Peyton. Peyton, this is my Uncle Keith."

"Hi, Uncle Keith." Peyton replied sweetly.

As the shook hands he quickly spoke with a smile. "How you doing?"

"Good." She smiled, looking at Lucas who smiled in return.

As they waited for the food the three moved their conversation to the living room.

"So Peyton, what does your dad do for a living?"

"He's a captain for a dredging boat."

"That's cool. Must keep him away a lot though?"

"Yeah, he's not home very often. But we keep in touch."

Keith just nodded, feeling she didn't like the subject to much. They all paused when they heard a ringing from the kitchen. "That must be the oven?" Keith smiled and proceeded to get up.

Lucas laughed. "Actually Keith, that's the fire alarm."

"Oh boy." Keith quickly got up and moved to the kitchen as Lucas and Peyton both stayed on the couch and laughed to themselves.

They both quieted down as Keith walked back into the living room, he sat the pan down and wiped his hand back and forth over it trying to stop the steam that was coming out of the burnt black chicken casserole.

Peyton and Lucas feel into a quite fit of giggles again, Keith looked to the teens and smiled. "Sorry." Keith smiled innocently.

"You know what I like?" Keith and Lucas both looked at the curly blonde. "Pizza." She smiled. They all laughed.

"Pizza it is." Keith laughed as he walked to the kitchen to order.

Peyton looked at her watch. They had just finished picking up from there pizza and where no talking and it was almost 10:00. "Jezzz. Its that late already?" As all three looked to their watches in disbelief Peyton stood. "I should get home. School tomorrow."

"Right." Keith and Lucas both got up. Keith and Peyton shared a little hug. "Nice to meet you Peyton."

"You too, Keith." She finished.

"Ill walk you out." Lucas said as he got up and walked her to the door, both of them stepping out on the porch. Lucas smiled and then sighed. "I'm sorry. This probably isn't your idea of a first date."

"Hey, No, I had fun." Peyton replied honestly.

"Look, Ah, I'm not good at this. I mean. Your like my first real girlfriend."

"Well that's OK because you're my first real boyfriend."

"Huh? What about Nathan?"

"Well Nathan wasn't much of a real boyfriend if you know what I mean." As Lucas sighed. She realized what she had just said to her boyfriend about her and his brother. "Sorry." She whispered with a scrunched face. Peyton felt the silence. "I should go." Peyton began to walk away. Lucas grabbed her hand and pulled her back unexpected and pressed his lips to hers. Lucas pulled away and Peyton kept her eyes closed, not wanting it to end.

"Sorry." He said quietly. Peyton nodded. Then wrapped her arms around him again, pressing there lips together in a searing kiss. And that's where they stood. On the porch outside of Lucas's front door, lips locked. All Peyton could think about was that this was the one boy I could fall in love with. Actually, the one boy I was in love with…

4 months later…

Lucas Scotts eyes fluttered open and instantly a smile formed on his face at the sight before him. He watched as the beautiful. Very naked. Blonde began to stir from her sleep. As her eyes began to flutter open, he scouted closer and kissed the top of her head. "Morning Babe." He whispered into her ear.

Peyton rolled herself around into her embrace and dug her head into his chest. "Uh hu. To early." She replied.

Lucas laughed at her antics. 'Babe. Come on."

Peyton moved her head now resting her chin on his chest so she could see him. "I cant believe the rehearsal dinner is tonight."

"I know. Me neither. It seems like yesterday it was our first kiss. But tomorrow your all mine." He grinned. And kissed her hands that were entwined with his.

She smiled at him. "I'm already yours. But after tomorrow your stuck with me."

Lucas laughed a little. "Well that is perfectly fine with me my love." And her smile only grew.

"Good." She spoke seductively as she pressed herself against him and kissed him deeply.

"Hmmm." Lucas rolled himself on top of her and Peyton squealed then gasped as Lucas hands began roaming her body and his lips met hers heatedly. Their hand both roamed each others body's and there lips stayed locked in a fierce kiss only breaking apart when are became a necessity. Lucas kissed her cheeks then moved to her neck pressing sweet kisses to her jaw line and collar bone.

Soon Lucas's hands roamed along her body down her thighs till they stopped in between her legs, making Peyton gasp and access was quickly granted as his fingers moved in her in frantic, teasing movements. Peyton closed her eyes, thoroughly enjoying herself and brought her hands down his tight chest, stopping just above his happy trail. Then she stroke him once, twice, until their hands began moving in sync.

The alarm clock sounded abruptly pausing their movements as Luke moved up to hit the alarm clock off he then bent down and peeked her lips before slowly pulling his fingers from her. Peyton sighed and pouted her bottom lip, this was definitely not how she wanted this to end.

"I think I need a cold shower." He smirked.

Peyton giggled. "Well how about we just take a shower together, to save water of course." She added quickly.

"Mmmm. Really?"

"Mmm Hmmm. If were going to be late, we are going to be late together."

Lucas laughed and kissed her quickly before she slipped out from under their covers and ran to the bathroom giggling as Lucas watched her bare retreating body he smirked to himself and followed her.

God she was beautiful. He had dreamed of waking up next to Peyton Sawyer since he was 14 years old but never thought it would happen. Now at 16 he was marrying her tomorrow. It was a dream come true, She was his dream come true.

"Hey Karen?"

"Yes?"

"When do these cakes need to go over to the river court tonight?" Keith asked.

"Brooke said to bring them around about 5:30-6:00." Karen yelled from her place at the table in the café.

Keith laughed to himself as he took a seat next to her. "What?" She questioned.

"Nothing. I just still cant believe your letting them get married. I mean you are like the coolest Mom ever." Keith explained.

"Yeah well Lucas and Peyton are happy. Who am I to take that away from them. Besides I love Peyton like she was my daughter."

"Well after tomorrow she will be." Keith responded.

"Yeah." Karen laughed. "Lucas couldn't have meet a better girl." She paused. 'I'm doing the right thing right? Letting them do this?"

Keith squeezed her shoulder. "Yeah. I think you are. I know one day Peyt and Lucas are going to look back and really appreciate you for this. I mean more than they already do, the already worship you for all you have done for them."

Karen smiled to him and got up. "I'm going to go call Brooke and make sure she has everything for tonight." Karen kissed Keith's cheek. "Thank you." She smiled and walked off.

He loved her, but she didn't know. Would she ever?

Lucas smiled as he walked out of the steaming bathroom to find Peyton drying her hair with just a little towel wrapped around her.

He walked behind her and wrapped his arms around her waist then left a trail of kisses down her neck to her shoulder. She turned in his embrace and rested her head on his shoulder. " I love you." She whispered.

He kissed her forehead and rested his hand on her back rubbing circles. "I love you too, Peyt."

She kissed his chest then wrapped her arms around his neck. "I can't believe its finally here."

"Me neither." He smirked and kissed her,, quickly deepening it. Peyton quickly realized where he was going with this and looked to the clock seeing it was 7:45, she pulled away. "Come on Luke. We have to be to school at 8:30." He sighed but nodded.

"Now I." She said as she grabbed her clothes. "Am going to change in the other room."

"Why?" He asked in confusion.

"Because if we both get changed in here we'll never get to school." She smirked with her eye brow raised, almost challenging him to argue.

He sighed once again in disappointment. Even though he knew it was true. He watched her leave the room and proceeded to get dressed.

End of Chapter one.
