The Shy Ones always make the biggest Change

Everyday is the same thing

Jason, Lucas, and Haley walked though the hallways, each in their own little world. Jason had loud music pumping into his ears. Lucas was reading "of mice and men by: John Steinbeck" for what seemed like the thousandth time. Haley was punching in numbers on her calculator trying to figure out a problem she had trouble with the night before. The three friends waved goodbye and went their separate ways. While walking to his class someone bumped into Lucas, as usual the person didn't even noticed tat he was there, didn't even say sorry or excuse, and only one person could be such an asshole.

This person was Nathan Scott.

As usual Peyton (Nathan's girlfriend or as he calls her " a fine piece of ass") bent down and helped clean up the mess that Nathan made, not that she minded in fact she really enjoyed Lucas's company and if she wasn't dating Nathan she would hang out with the guy more often, but the popularity chain once again manages to bite her in the ass once again.

"Umm.... thanks" Lucas said nervously

"No problem" Peyton replied as she walked to catch up with the "spawn of Satan" as Lucas liked to say.

And this was Lucas Scott's every morning routine, Nathan would push him down and Peyton, he Lucas has had a crush on for years would help him up. As pathetic as it sounds Lucas couldn't wait for his interaction with Peyton, and every morning he always left the situation with a glowing smile on his face.

Haley's POV

I never minded the snickers and names like "nerd" or "geek" I always did good in school, because I made a promise to myself, that I wasn't going to end up a drunk like my father. Ever since my mother died he always turned to alcohol to solve his problems, and if alcohol couldn't help he would turn to me. I never told anyone he hit me, not even my best friends. Although it was going to become that time of year, winter. It was harder to hide the bruises and marks from everyone because that's when my mom died and the bruises were darker and bigger. To every other person this was some sad story, but to me Haley James this was my life.

Jason didn't look like your average geek, you know with neat, parted hair and thick glasses; actually Jason Carde was the opposite. He loved to skateboard. He wore baggy jeans, long sleeve Vans shirts with skateboarding shoes, and music always blasting though his ears. Jason was Felix brother. When Jason was born his mother and his real father were already working the paperwork to get a divorce. When Jason was a month old his mother got pregnant once again, with Felix and one year later Anna popped out. Jason and Felix looked alike; they both had dark olive skin, brown eyes, dark smooth hair, and bulky muscles. Their personalities however were extremely different. Despite Jason's good looks he was shy and he always kept to himself. He always sat in the back of the classroom. Most people in the school didn't even know Jason existed.

Lucas had been waiting for the bell to get away from Mr. Pal and balancing equations. As soon as it was time to leave Lucas gathered his things and walked to the library. Lucas saw her sitting at one of the tables alone drawing. He rarely saw her here. He felt butterflies in his stomach, he then remembered that Peyton Sawyer was dating Nathan Scott and it was best not to mix in. He decided it was best just to walk past her and sit in another table. His plan would have worked if she didn't hear the music blaring though his headphones. It was Bury Me Alive by: The Used, her favorite song.

"Hey"

"Oh hey, didn't see you there" Lucas stammered

He caught the look of disappointment when he said this.

"Well actually I did see you there, but you looked busy and I didn't want to interrupt you" Lucas finished quickly.

Peyton couldn't hold it in any longer, she burst out laughing.

"Your laughing.....wait....I don't have anything on my face do I??"

By this time Peyton had tears rolling down her cheeks.

"Oh no Peyton don't cry, I have no idea what to do when anyone cries."

Lucas said as he sat down next to her and rubbed her back to try and get her to stop crying.

"You know Lucas you're a funny guy." Peyton replied once she caught her breath.

"Thanks....I guess"

"We should hang put more often"

Lucas smiled at the thought just as the bell rung.

"I'll see you around Lucas" Peyton said as she walked out the door.

"So not only do I get to hang out with her" Lucas said to himself "but she remembered my name too!!"
