SUMMARY: Haley and Lucas go away for the weekend for some much needed friend time, and Haley leaves Brooke to look after Nathan…what will happen? (Brooke and Lucas are not together, but Haley and Nathan are. They aren't married.)

Disclaimer:I own nothing.

Let's get on to the story...

Chapter 1

Brooke was on her way to Nathan's house, she had the whole day planned for them.

(Flashback)

There was a knocking on the front door, Brooke ran down the stairs and was surprised to see who was at the door.

"Haley, what are you doing here? Shouldn't you be on your way to Lucas's?" Brooke said.

"Yeah…but I just wanted to stop by and ask you for a favor," Haley said.

Quirking an eyebrow Brooke asked "What is it?"

Haley looked down and shuffled her feet.

"Well…" Haley began but Brooke cut her off

"Haley is this going to be like that time in summer camp where you…"

"NO!" Haley yelled. "And I thought we agreed never to talk about that again."

"Sorry, but seriously Hales what is it…your scaring me," Brooke asked worriedly.

"Well you know how Lucas and I are going to have our little vacation…"

"Ah yes the Laley reunion…what about it?" Brooke asked curiously.

"Well Nathan is going to be all alone, and I was hoping that you could maybe look after him for me," Haley said hopefully.

"Why were you so nervous to ask me that?" Brooke asked confused.

Haley sighed. "I don't want Nathan to know that I asked you because then he's going to think that I don't trust him"

"Do you?" Brooke asked.

"Of course I do, but then there's always that 'what if' and I just don't want to risk losing him," Haley replied sadly.

"You wont…I'll make sure of it," Brooke smiled.

"Oh thank you Brooke," Haley hugged Brooke.

"Anytime Haley," Brooke pulled away and pushed Haley towards the door.

"Now go have fun with your best friend, and don't worry about Nathan…I'll take good care of him," Brooke smirked.

"Thanks again Brooke."

And with that, Haley was gone leaving Brooke to figure out a way to look after Nathan without making it obvious, she got an idea and picked up the phone.

"Hello?"

"Hey Nate…I was wondering if you wanted to hang out until Haley and Luke come back from their little trip?" Brooke asked innocently.

"Uh…yeah sure, but what are we going to be doing?" Nathan asked.

"You just leave that to me," Brooke smirked.

"Uh oh," Nathan laughed.

"Oh shut up! I'll see you later. Bye Nate," Brooke smiled.

"Later Brooke Davis," Nathan laughed and hung up.

"This is gonna be fun," Brooke said to herself after she hung up.

(End of Flashback)

Brooke was standing in front of Nathan's house, she didn't know why, but she was nervous.

She lifted her hand and knocked.

Nathan opened the door with a smile.

"Hey Brooke, come on in"

"Gladly," Brooke replied stepping into his house.

"So…what are we going to do today?" Nathan asked.

"Well I was thinking we should go to the…" Brooke was cut off by her cell phone.

"Hold on…Hello? You can't be serious! You can't do this to me! Ugh this is so not fair! Fine BYE!" Brooke yelled before she threw her phone to the wall.

"What happened?" Nathan asked worried.

"It was my boss from Suburban Filth, she fired me! She said that they have to cut back on workers, that the store has enough already, and since I was a newbie she fired me!" Brooke said frustrated.

"I'm sorry Brooke, does this mean our day is off, because I understand if you don't want to anymore," Nathan said sympathetically.

"I don't really feel like going out anymore….but we always just hang out here," Brooke suggested.

"Okay sure, but what are we going to do here?" Nathan asked

"I don't know, how about we brainstorm?"

Nathan sat down on the couch as did Brooke and they looked around, but then Nathan decided that he couldn't brain storm on a empty stomach, and emptied out his fridge, leaving its contents on the table.

Brooke watched him, but the bottle of Tequila caught her attention, so she walked over to it and lifted it up.

"I think I just found us something to do," Brooke said waving the bottle so that Nathan could see what she meant.

"I like the way you think," Nathan said smirking.

"Doesn't everybody?" Brooke said while she took out two glasses and began to pour the drinks

"If they don't then there is definitely something wrong with the world," Nathan said as he received his glass.

"Damn straight," Brooke said as she downed her drink along with Nathan.

"Make sure I don't get drunk," Nathan told Brooke.

"Yeah sure Nate, just shut up and drink," Brooke said as she downed yet another glass full.

"I hope this ends well," Nathan muttered as he brought the glass to his lips.

(1 hour and two bottles later)

Brooke and Nathan had ended up drinking on the couch.

Brooke was giggling, obviously drunk, and Nathan was laughing too, so I guess Brooke didn't do a good job of making sure he didn't get drunk, but at the moment they could care less.

"Hey Nathan," Brooke whispered loudly.

"What?" Nathan whispered going along with Brooke.

"I think we're drunk," Brooke said before she just busted out laughing.

"I do too," Nathan agreed as he and Brooke continued to laugh.

Brooke immediately stopped, and Nathan looked at her confused.

"I'm horny," Brooke stated while she turned to look at Nathan.

Nathan just stared at her, and before he knew it they had ended up going to his room all the while making out like there was no tomorrow.

(The next morning)

Brooke woke up first; she looked around and was horrified to see that she was lying in bed next to a naked Nathan Scott.

She began to smack Nathan,

"Hey! What the hell!" Nathan woke up jumping, but he froze when he saw who was next to him, and how under dressed she was.

"Brooke…what happened last night?" Nathan asked afraid of the answer.

"What's it look like!" Brooke yelled.

"It looks like I'm in deep shit," Nathan concluded.

"Ya think," Brooke rolled her eyes.

"Look I'm gonna get dressed…and don't you dare stare at my ass!" Brooke said as she tried to cover herself as she picked her clothes off the floor, and walked into the bathroom.

Nathan was just so frustrated.

He slept with Brooke.

This could not be happening.

At least Haley was off on her trip with Lucas.

OH SHIT! WHAT AM I GONNA SAY TO HALEY! Nathan thought frantically

He couldn't just say, "Hey Haley I had drunken sex with your best friend, will you marry me?"

He was so screwed.

Just then Brooke walked out of the bathroom, completely clothed.

"Look Nate, last night was a mistake, we were both drunk and didn't know what we were doing," Brooke explained.

"You're totally right," Nathan replied but for some odd reason what she was saying hurt him.

"I think we should just bury it," Brooke said as she walked over to Nathan.

"Deal?" Brooke asked as she stuck her hand out for Nathan to shake.

"Deal," Nathan agreed as he shook her hand, but tried to shake the feeling he got as he touched her.

"Haley won't find out, because nothing happened," Brooke said as she left his room and out the house.

Nathan just sat in his bed, Brooke's words taunting him.

"Nothing happened," Nathan whispered to himself as he tried to shake thoughts of Brooke out of his head.

"Nothing," Nathan whispered sadly as he shook his head.

As long as he was with Haley, and she was Brooke's best friend, that's all that he and Brooke would be.

Nothing.
