The five years later……………
The sudden ringing of the annoying morning alarm woke Peyton up from her restful sleep. She noticed as she wiped her sleepy eyes that her bedroom curtains had been open and she knew she had defiantly drawn them the previous night. But once her sleepy eyes had adjusted she caught a glimpse of a red and green thin shaped 'object' on the pillow next to her as she turned her head to inspect it further she gasped in happiness as she found it was one of her favorite flowers (a rose) she picked it up and breathed in deep its fresh scented aroma and smiled to herself.
She gave herself a cheeky smile and then suddenly flung off her bed sheets and rushed out of her room. Just as she opened her door she found herself at a halt, staring amazed at the sight she saw.
Red, white and baby pink coloured rose petals were scatted freely on the floor, she now noticed the gentle music drifting from downstairs, still grasping the rose in her hand and now tiptoeing over the colourful sea of rose petals she made her way downstairs.
She knew what was happening and she could no longer wait with excitement to burst through the door because she knew what day it was and who would be waiting for her in the next room.
She grazed the door handle for a moment before opening the door.
As she peered into the room a tall light haired man was standing with his back towards her looking out of the window.
''Lucas'' she called out. Peyton walked in further and Lucas slowly turned around. He walked the remaining few steps towards her, they were now standing face to face. His hand moved up to her face and rested it on her soft cheek.
His right hand thumb moved back and forth as it stroked her, she smiled and placed her hand on his. She then pulled it towards her lips and kissed his palm. He then moved in closer and gave her a passionate kiss stoking her hair with his hand while the other hand ran down her back.
She grasped the front part of his top pulling it away from his chest; Lucas pulled a millimeter away and whispered ''Happy Valentines Day ''.
Peyton bit her lip in impatience and pulled Lucas in for another kiss. '' I Love you'' Peyton lovingly said to Lucas and he responded ''I love you too Peyton Sawyer, are you now ready for your Valentines gift?''
''You know a girl will never say no to a gift especially from you'' Lucas reached into his pocket and pulled out a piece of paper. He unfolded it carefully ironing out the creases with his hands.
He passed it to Peyton and said '' the best gift I can give you is my heart''. Peyton took the piece of paper and began reading out loud.
''I give you my heart because it belongs to you, my love for you is whole- so I am able to live, breath, have all my wishes come true. I take all the love that I feel for you and I keep it in a special place. This place is only for you, and as I hold the love it grows strong, it will be strong forever….. I will hold the strength for the both of us and will show you how much you mean to me….. Oh Lucas it's beautiful''
Peyton's arms hold Lucas tight and she nestles her head on his shoulders and tells him ''I was so lucky meeting you Lucas Scott, I don't need fairy tales. You are my knight in shining armor… I actually have two gifts for you, the first is'' Peyton pulls out a long thick piece of card and she holds it up and turns to Lucas.
Lucas stared at this wonder……. It was a drawing she has done of her and Lucas and all the happy times of which they have shared together.
''I left spaces on it so I can add the future and the many happy times to come''
''Peyton it's beautiful, I wouldn't want anything else''
Narrator-'' It's like a match made in heaven; these to fine human beings are destined to be together. There matching creative personalities and the passion they both share for each other will sure take them both through the hard and happy times''.
Peyton smiled and looked Lucas in his lovely eyes….'' This second gift may come at a surprise and I hope you will like it……………………I'm pregnant"……..
