A/N Hey guys I'm Tasha and this is my second fic! It's an AU fic and the story will start off quite confusing but that's intentional, now just a brief history.
Everyone will be in their final year, Lucas is the son of Karen and Keith and Nathan the son of Deb and Dan. Lucas and Nathan are cousins. There will be no animosity between the two brothers.
Disclaimer: I don't own One Tree Hill, any of its characters or storylines, that's all owned by the great Mark Schwahn and the CW/WB; I do however own this plot: ) enjoy reading…
Chapter One
It Ends Tonight
People Always Leave…
"Hey you," He stared at her rifling through her bags, the hustle and bustle of the crowded airport all around them.
"Oh my God! Jake!" Dropping her bag she ran towards him flinging her arms around his neck, he stood there silently holding on to her, breathing in her heavenly scent.
Slowly they both pulled away. She cupped his face in her hands.
"What are you doing here?" she said softly.
"I needed to see you, I can't believe you were gonna go without telling me," She looked down. "I can't believe you were gonna go without saying goodbye."
"I thought it would be too hard," She said looking away from him.
"I love you," He softly whispered, she looked back at him, her eyes filled with tears.
"All passengers for the 21:45 flight to Los Angeles please start boarding."
"I guess that's my cue" She gave him a small smile and backed away from him, grabbing her bags she made her way to the gate.
Jake watched as she handed over her boarding pass, the tears threatened to spill from his eyes.
She turned back towards him; he watched the tears streak down her face.
She gave him a small smile.
"I love you too Jake. I could never forget you."
She turned back round and walked into the tunnel never once looking back.
Jake watched her until slowly she was lost in the sea of passengers.
Sometimes They Come Back…
The only sounds that could be heard were the waves crashing down on the moonlit beach as they both stood there holding each other in their arms.
After a few moments of blissful peace she slowly pulled away from him and planted a soft kiss on the side of his face.
He looked into her eyes as a stray tear fell.
They both stood there looking at one another their hands tightly clasped together.
"I should go." She choked.
He nodded slightly in silent assent.
Gently she pulled away from his warm touch and turned around walking slowly away.
He stood there watching her as she lifted her dress to walk more steadily, he could hear her faint sobs with the sounds of the ocean.
"Hey!" He suddenly called out.
She stopped instantly and stood there frozen at his voice. Slowly she turned around to face his once more.
Nathan watched her, he watched how the wind billowed against her hair, he saw the streaks of mascara running down her face, the way she gently tugged her bottom lip in quiet anticipation.
"I can't do this," He finally said
She gave him a look of confusion.
"Do what?"
"Let you walk away"
She stood there almost dumbstruck as he walked towards her; he finally stopped a few feet away and looked intently into her eyes.
"I don't understand," She whispered.
"I-I think I'm falling in love with you"
"What!" She gasped.
"I love you"
Her face slowly lit up with a small smile and she started walking towards him.
Nathan smiled back, his heart thumped wildly in his chest.
When she finally stood inches away from him she laid one hand on the side of his face.
"I love you too Nathan Scott." She whispered
He pulled her towards him, his mouth capturing hers and their tongues duelled in a fiery kiss.
When oxygen became an issue they slowly pulled away, both gasping for breath.
They locked eyes and chuckled lightly before Nathan hastily wrapped his arms around her, holding her tightly against him.
"I'm never gonna let you go," He whispered into her neck breathing in her soft jasmine scent.
"I don't want you to ever let go" She answered back.
People Always…Lie??
He picked up her bags and placed them in the trunk of the car along with his own pulling the door closed he slowly walked over to stand with her as she gazed at the house.
"So many memories" She whispered.
"Yeah" Lucas turned to look at her "Do you think you'll ever wanna talk about it?"
"Talk about what?"
"What happened,"
"We should go Luke"
Lucas watched her as she tore her gaze away from the house and climbed into the car.
Quickly glancing at the house one last time he walked around to the driver's side and got in.
"So…let's see if we got everything we need…road tunes?"
"Check"
"Snacks?"
"Check"
"Bags?"
"Check"
"Do we have a Lucas?" She quipped, He looked down at himself in response.
"Check"
"Me…check! Well I think we have everything!" She grinned.
"What would I do without you!" He exclaimed half seriously.
"You probably won't have a checklist!"
They both laughed.
"Ready to go boyfriend?"
"Ready as I'll ever be" Lucas started up the car and pulled out of the curb, driving away into the darkness.
"Oh no! Crap I forgot my ipod!"
"Nope it's right here" Lucas assured her handing over the ipod.
"Oh I love you Lucas Scott!" She exclaimed kissing his cheek.
Lucas looked over at her, her face was lit up with a beautiful smile but as he looked into her eyes they told a different story.
They showed the many secrets hidden within.
"I love you too."
Too bad she wasn't the only one with secrets.
