Hey guys, I started a new story...it's going to be a Brathan/Brucas with I don't know which other pairings yet. Enjoy and leave comments I would really be thankful!


It was just another night after Ravens won. They were all gathered together at Nathan's beach house. The red cups were on the tables and outside, actually it looked like a flood of cups all around the house. The beach house was their meeting place, because Nathan's parents were too much lost into fighting to realize their son was giving parties in their beach house.

Brooke was wearing a light pink shirt and her jeans skirt. She changed in the car after the game and just put on some lip gloss. Peyton was wearing a black dress that was fitting her mood perfectly. P. Sawyer never was the party type, it was more of Brooke's thing, but today not even the cheery girl was looking forward to the party. It seemed like an endless routine to her. As she walked to the doors with Peyton she was greeted by Tim.

"Welcome Ladies to the party palace" Tim smiled at them. He obviously was already drunk and too enthusiastic about it.

"Just say: come in Tim" Nathan Scott corrected his friend in his typically cold tone. Yes, Nathan was the star player of the Ravens and his attitude showed this. He was a good looking jerk with a great body. He smiled slightly at the girls and moved on. He was the player of Tree Hill and Brooke knew a lot of stories about him. Never the less she knew him well enough. They were neighbors for years now and she used to know him, but now they kind of were in the same crowd: the popular, but never really had much to do with each other. Brooke just walked past him as if she didn't care at all. She was cheer captain and probably the best looking girl in Tree Hill, this she knew and didn't care about. Nathan looked after her and a smirk escaped his lips. He liked Brooke's attitude, she was probably the only girl he couldn't fool with his lines and his muscles. Brooke looked around the too familiar beach house. She could have any guy in this room, but she was bored already. None of these guys were interesting for her.

"You want something to drink?" her curly friend asked and she just nodded. Alcohol could probably help her mood or at least make this all seem cheery.

"Whatever" she breathed out and sat down the couch. Peyton was gone to find a decent drink and Rachel came closer to Brooke.

"Hey bitch" she said and sat down beside Brooke.

"Hey whore" Brooke smiled. She liked to see Rachel join this party. Rachel could always make fun of any party especially when she was with Owen. Owen was senior in Tree Hill High, and probably the second best according to the basketball record. Owen was known as Rachel's almost boyfriend, she would never call him that, but he was aiming for the title.

"You look bored" the red haired laughed and Brooke nodded.

"Just thinking if I should join the 'I never' group or the 'I dare you' one" Brooke rolled her eyes. Yes every party was the same and she already knew how the night would end. She just couldn't find the guy she would end up with yet. And while she screened the crowd her chances were getting smaller by the minute, she really hated to know each of the faces, no one was different they all were the same face just another voice.

"So how are the chances you join me in the 'I never', I tend to always come out to be a slut in this game" Rachel laughed as Peyton came back with two red cups.

"It's something with rum" the blonde said and Brooke just took her cup and sipped.

"Something with very much rum" she just corrected.

"Alright, the 'I never' it is" Brooke looked at Rachel.

"Thanks, this way I'm not the only slut" the red haired laughed and Brooke softly punched her.

"Shut up" Brooke complained and took Peyton's hand to lead her to the party table.

Peyton laughed and joined the mad crowd. Teresa was already drunk and Nathan laughed as she was forced to drink again but didn't even notice her cup was empty.

"Can we join?" Brooke asked while putting her cup down next to Nathan. She was probably one of the few girls that could be close to Nathan without fainting away or starting to flirt offensively. Nathan always wondered why Brooke was different from the rest of the girls.

"Sure, why not" the basketball jock grinned. Maybe this was his chance to figure her out.

Owen looked at Rachel and smiled slightly. He liked to know more about his sort of girlfriend. Rachel was always the silent one if it came to talking past, no matter what details about her past. Brooke was used to it by now. She liked the red haired girl and she didn't care about her history as much as for her future, Owen on the other hand was very interested in every detail of Rachel's past.

"Glad you both join" Owen smirked at them.

To Brooke Owen was like her brother, since he started dating Rachel. He always looked out for the brunette dimpled girl. Sometimes this made Rachel jealous, she hated to see how much he cared for Brooke, but somehow this was what she loved Owen for. Of course she would never admit that she was in love with the big basketball player, especially not now, that he was moving away soon and leave her for college.

"I wouldn't be so happy if I were you" Rachel just stated and put her drink down "You probably need to drink all the time and I won't let you sleep over if there is any chance you have to puck"

Rachel knew exactly what a player Owen used to be before he met her.

"I never puck after alcohol" Owen said and a bunch of people around the table started to drink.

Nathan locked gaze with Brooke and smiled.

"So you never?" he asked and Brooke rolled her eyes and took a sip. Nathan laughed and followed her example. Rachel was under Owen's glare and took a sip, before he could start to tease her again.

"So this is how the game works P. Sawyer, I never…" Brooke smiled at her friend who sat down next to her.

"And apparently you have" a blonde guy said and Nathan laughed next to her. Nathan saw Brooke get angry for a second and this amused him.

"Shut up, Vegas" she played shocked. Yes, she has a reputation too. Nathan smirked at his basketball team and faced Teresa.

"Tim, could you get Teresa outside, I think she needs fresh air" Nathan commanded. It wasn't a question as much as it was an order. Tim came inside and helped Teresa out.

"And we planned to have practice tomorrow, you really destroy my squad Scott" Brooke gave him a warning look but Nathan just laughed. Their talks usually were about the practice timing or their team/squad.

"So who is to start?" he asked and Vegas grinned brightly.

"I never…" he looked daring at Brooke "had slept with a basketball player just before the game"

Brooke took her cup and took a sip. It was actually unfair, but Rachel joined her, so she just laughed. This game was actually a way to prove if stories that someone told about a particular person were true. Rachel winked at Brooke and the brunette smiled back. At least they were together in this. Owen looked at Rachel in shock.

"Not this school" she calmed him down, but he still was focused on her. Rachel just moved here and it took Owen 5 weeks to make her date him exclusively. Nathan was focused on the brunette girl next to him. Somehow he liked to see her true face.

"Nice" he smiled and she just turned around to look at him.

"I never…" she needed to think and laughed "oops I did that" she smiled and winked at Rachel.

"Wow" Nathan whispered at her "you can't come up with 'I never'?"

"Oh, Scott you will have a lot of I never" she raised her eyebrow and Nathan leaned closer to her.

"Test me" he mumbled and she felt a shiver run down her spine.

"I don't think I want to see you play Davis" Owen looked at Brooke. This was basically saved by the bell. She couldn't be attracted to Nathan Scott. She just wasn't she told herself and turned to face Owen.

She was really like a sister to him and when he heard stuff like that he wanted to punch all the guys that came too close to her in their faces. It wasn't jealousy it was protection. For him she was little and fragile. He only got jealous with Rachel's stories, so sometimes he was really thankful, that he didn't know about her past. She knew that he used to be a player, maybe even worse that Nathan seemed to be nowadays, but she ignored it or didn't care. Owen hoped for the first one, because he really was falling for this girl, big times.

"Then don't listen" Nathan suggested and Brooke rolled her eyes. Nathan's eyes were on her and she could feel them burn on her skin. She needed an escape.

Peyton obviously felt uncomfortable so Brooke just got up. She walked slowly past Nathan and smiled softly.

"This is boring anyways, no real guys around" she said and Nathan looked after her. She was challenging him now and Nathan Scott never lost a game.

"Watch it" Owen said and Nathan turned around pleased to see that O addressed Vegas and not him. Obviously Brooke was an eye catcher for most of the guys. Nathan smiled as he watched her leave outside. He knew that he had to have her now.

"This game is getting old" Brooke whispered to Peyton as they sat outside.

"Sorry that I'm a downer today" Peyton told her "my dad is not coming home for the weekend again and I miss him so much"

Brooke leaned closer to her best friend.

"Do you want me to give you a ride home?" Brooke wondered. They came with Peyton's car, but it still seemed like something she should have suggested.

"No, but do you mind if I drive home now?" Peyton asked and Brooke shook her head. She knew the blonde too well, she needed a time out and Brooke would find a ride anytime. She hugged her friend goodbye and reminded her to call her anytime. Peyton was gone and Brooke was looking after her for a while until she felt a cold breeze and walked inside again. Rachel was sitting on the couch and sipping her cocktail.

"What happened?" the brunette wondered and Rachel smirked.

"Owen freaked after 3 'I never'" she whispered and Brooke laughed.

"So nothing new?" she asked and Rachel joined her.

"Same routine" the red haired agreed. They both cheered to that and got a sip of their drink.

"You go and search for him?" Brooke asked and Rachel got up and nodded.

"I better do" she mumbled and walked outside.

So there she was again: left alone at a party that she didn't really want to attend in first place.

"Do you need a refill?" Vegas asked her and she thought for a while. Vegas was really annoying, but right now he was the only one talking to her, so she just nodded. Nathan was watching her from the corner of his eye but focused on Owen.

"So she had a familiar history like you" he repeated this sentence, he knew it too well. Rachel and Owen would make up anyway and it didn't matter what he would say, but then again Owen was one of his closest friends. Maybe he liked to have Owen around, because he felt older with him.

"Why not?" Brooke agreed and walked out with Vegas. He was talking some crap about rebounds and being just as good as Nathan and she was watching the stars and hoping that the evening would pass. For a second she thought about kissing Vegas just to shut him up, but decided otherwise. Nathan walked outside as well and smiled softly at Brooke.

"How about 7 minutes in heaven?" he asked her and she looked shocked. She didn't even notice that Vegas left.

"He is getting me a new drink" Nathan explained as he followed her glare.

"Oh" was all that she got out.

"So what about it Brooke?" he asked and put one hand on each side of her. She was pinned at the wall and she wondered who was watching them.

"You really think I would make out with you Scott?" she wondered but she felt her hands tremble and her lips shake.

"I think you want it" he whispered while he leaned closer.

"Think again" she whispered as she walked out under his arms.

"Come on" he turned around and leaned against the wall.

"You are bored and so am I" he smirked.

"Oh this was a nice line, did it ever work on a girl?" Brooke laughed and leaned against the wall as well.

"Half of your squad" Nathan noted proudly.

"Well, I'm not much for lines" Brooke whispered. It was the moment for her to leave. She was feeling her heart race and she couldn't understand how Nathan could make her heart pump like that. Just as she turned away he grabbed her hand and pulled her into the garage. She was surprised to face the darkness and just as she wanted to ask him where they were his hand was on her face and he pulled her closer. His lips touched hers and she couldn't resist but kiss him back. She felt his hands wander up and down her back and she found her hands playing with his hair. They barely came up for air, but after a while she could feel a smirk on his face as he kissed her on and she just pushed away.

"What?" she asked and he grinned.

"It just isn't boring anymore" he smiled and kissed down her neck. She wasn't thinking, she just covered his mouth with hers.

That's how it all started.
