A different approach on Lucas' and Lindsey's wedding night.

Lucas continued to shift his tie nervously while contemplating many feelings in his head. He was beginning to bear consequence to all of his actions. He was feeling so insecure and worried, and although a very rational part of him wanted to believe that he was just experiencing a case of cold feet something in his heart told him otherwise. Nonetheless, he pushed all of his indecisions aside and proceeded to get dressed. He took a good hard look at himself in the mirror and realized that there was no going back now. For some reason he could not will himself to tear his thoughts from peyton and how he had left things with her. His thoughts, however, were soon interrupted by the tranquil sound of his younger brothers voice.

"Hey Luke, you ready man?" Nathan questioned

"As ready as I'll ever be." Lucas answered whole-heartedly

(meanwhile outside the church)

Everyone else had gone inside and now just peyton and skills were left outside laughing and sharing a few drinks.

Peyton knew she would need more than just a few drinks if she was going to follow through with watching the man she loves marry another woman. She was thinking about the last time she had spoke to Lucas and about how she had told him she was letting him go. She knew that part of her had meant everything she said because all she had ever wanted was to see him happy. However, she also knew that she could never fully let go and that a large part of her heart would always belong to him.

"We should probably be heading in now P. Sawyer.. you ready?"

"As ready as I'll ever be." Peyton sighed.

Back inside the church everyone was taking their rightful seats while the percussion of instruments softly played from the balcony above.

Peyton and Skills had just walked in and lucas immediately took notice of this. He followed her with his eyes watching as she giggled and playfully hit skills in the arm. For some reason to which Lucas could not 

understand a very large part of him got angry watching the interactions between the two and silently wishing it would be him next to her making her laugh. He shook the thought from his mind and took his place at the altar; attempting to push and thoughts and images of her from his mind.

Seeing Lucas atop the altar with his tux on made peyton sick to her stomach; or it could've been the 5 beers she had just downed in the last 15 minutes or so. Either way she had a feeling she wasn't going to stick around to find out.

The music started playing as Lindsey made her way down the isle and towards Lucas. The music had now ended and her and Lucas were now face to face.

suddenly Peyton felt nauseous, the room around her began to spin and everything was in a whirlwind. She stood up as quickly as possible and turned to leave her isle towards the bathroom. But something held her back. Her foot had gotten caught on a peice of wood and she had fallen to the ground causing a loud thud and everyone throughout the church to stare.

"OW!" peyton yelped as she tried to stand. Skils along with brooke quickly stood and attended to peyton trying to figure out what was wrong. It was then that Skills noticed a large sum of blood gushing from peytons shin.

"Peyt you're bleeding.. are you alright?" skills asked as he touched her leg

"OW! geez skills!" peyton yelled.

Lucas was watching from afar wanting so desperately to help her but he was worried that Lindsey would get mad at him. But as soon as he realized the spot on her leg that she was bleeding from memories from many years ago came rushing back and he took off in a jog towards peyton.
