"You're late. You were supposed to be here fifteen minutes ago," Peyton told her best friend as she ran into their apartment.
Haley walked up to Peyton and gave her a hug and a kiss on the cheek. "I'm sorry. Tutoring session went over," she explained and took a seat on the couch with Peyton.
Peyton nodded. "Well, I wanted to tell you about my date, but if you don't want to hear about it," she let her sentence trail off as she picked up a magazine from their coffee table.
Haley took the magazine and lightly slapped Peyton in the head with it before throwing it back on the coffee table. "You better tell me about it. Isn't Nathan Scott the hottest basketball player on campus?" she said with a smile. "Not that I'm into those type of guys," she added quickly.
Peyton stuck her tongue out at Haley. "If you're going to abuse me I won't tell you," she said, miming zipping her lips and throwing away the key. Then she got up and walked to the kitchen.
Haley followed and found Peyton pouring herself a glass of water. "Peyton Sawyer, if you don't spill your guts about this date of yours, then I'm just going to spread it around campus that you used him for sex," Haley was only playing around, but Peyton spit her water out. She looked guiltily at Haley before busying herself with cleaning up the water. "Oh my gosh, Peyton you had sex with him after one date!" Haley exclaimed.
Peyton smiled sheepishly. "It was a good date," she said meekly. Haley raised an eyebrow at Peyton. "It's not like all of us can be perfect saintly virgins like you," she said.
Haley blushed, but still slapped Peyton's arm. "You are such a slut, Sawyer, I don't even know why I'm friends with you," she said, but Peyton knew she wasn't really serious.
Peyton smirked. "You know you live vicariously through me. You'd be lost without me," she answered.
Haley laughed. "You know what? You're right, if you didn't live with me I'd be lost," she paused. "I'd never come up for the rent for this place on my own," she added before leaving the room.
Peyton stood there for a minute before following her best friend. Haley was sitting on the couch, looking through the magazine Peyton had picked up earlier. "That was a low blow, Hales," Peyton said, clutching her chest. "That really hurt," she added.
Haley looked up at Peyton and raised her eyebrows. "So what else went on with this date? Please tell me you didn't just jump straight into bed with him without at least getting him to buy you dinner first," she said as she put the magazine back down.
Peyton sighed and threw herself down on the couch. "Well I found out that he comes from Bear Creek and he was the star of their basketball team," she said with a shrug.
Haley's eyes widened at Peyton's nonchalance. "I hope that's not all you know about him," she said.
Peyton rolled her eyes. "Oh, yeah, Hales, that's just how easy I am," she said, sarcasm dripping from her voice. "No, we went out to dinner and talked for a while. Then we went back to his apartment that he shares with his brother. His brother was out with his girlfriend so one thing kind of led to another. We had had a few drinks," she explained.
Haley looked at her best friend. "Well, as long as you had a good time. Are you seeing him again soon?" she asked.
Peyton nodded, but bit her lip nervously. "He actually invited me to a party tonight. After cheerleading practice," she paused. "I was wondering if you wanted to go with me," Haley started to protest, but Peyton continued. "Hales, come on, you never get out and do anything. Please do this with me. You don't have to drink, just come and hang out. We're college freshman, for goodness sake. All you do is tutor people."
Haley had stopped talking some time during Peyton's speech and she had her arms folded. "I was going to say yes, but if you're just going to insult me," she paused. Peyton started to take back her words. Haley held up her hands to stop her best friend. "I guess I'll go."
Peyton smiled and hugged her best friend. "You won't regret this," she looked at her watch. "We gotta get to cheerleading practice now, but when we get back, before the party I'll find you something to where," she said as she stood.
Haley followed Peyton out of the apartment. "Peyt, I can pick my own clothes," she said with a groan.
Peyton looked back at Haley and scrunched her nose. "Yeah, but Hales, we want you to look good. You'll never find a guy if you don't," she added with a smirk.
They got in Peyton's car and drove to cheerleading practice, still debating Haley's sense of style.
OTH OTH OTH OTH OTH OTH OTH OTH OTH OTH OTH OTH OTH OTH OTH
Lucas and Brooke were sitting on the couch in Lucas and Nathan's apartment, making out, of course. Nathan came into the room. He waited for a moment, but they didn't notice him. He cleared his throat, loudly and the couple slowly broke away from each other.
Lucas nodded at his brother. "Hey, man, how was your date last night?" he asked.
Nathan went to the kitchen to get a water, and Lucas took the hint and followed, leaving Brooke on the couch. "So, man, how was it?" he asked.
Nathan took a slow drink of the water before answering. He was trying, and succeeding, to build up the suspense. "It was great man. She was great, if you catch my drift," he said with his eyebrows raised.
Lucas looked at his brother. "You slept with her already? Wasn't yesterday your first date? Are you going to see her again?" he questioned.
Nathan nodded. "The sex was great, so I'm definitely seeing her again. Thanks for getting out of here last night by the way. Oh, and I invited her to the party tonight," he informed Lucas.
Lucas rolled his eyes at Nathan's first comment. "You know, if you keep using girls for sex, you're going to end up alone eventually," he said.
Nathan ignored the comment, the same way he did every time Lucas tried to get him to change his ways. "I'm just living life, brother. Although if I could get a girlfriend as hot as yours I might be saying something different. That is one fine piece of ass you have," he said.
Lucas resisted the urge to hit his brother. "You are a jackass, Nate. Don't talk about Brooke like that. I actually like her for something more than her looks, if you could understand that," he said angrily.
Nathan held up his hands in surrender. "Chill out, man, just speaking the truth. Although, Peyton is pretty hot. I just might stay with her for awhile. At least until the next best thing comes up," he said with a smirk.
Lucas shook his head. "Grow up, little brother. There's more to life than getting laid. Women are more than just a pair of tits, you know," he said, his anger subsiding slightly.
Nathan smirked again. "Oh, yeah, they're a lot more than that," he was about to go on but Lucas held up his hands.
"Don't finish that sentence," Lucas warned his brother.
Nathan laughed, then got serious. "Honestly, I'm thinking I really might stay with Peyton for a while. Not only is she hot and a good screw, she's a cheerleader, but she's got this whole broody thing going on. She's kind of like you, actually, the whole tortured broody thing going on," he said.
Lucas shook his head and was about to reply, but Brooke walked into the kitchen. "Hey, guys, I hate to break up your conversation, but I have cheerleading practice and you guys have basketball practice. If we don't leave now, we'll be late," she said.
A/N: So is it good? Or should I just give up on it? This idea just came to me today? If you have any questions or any comments at all please just review.
