Hey guys! This is my One Tree Hill story, where the whole gang heads off to a teen's camp for a summer as counselors, hoping for a summer of fun—but what do they get instead? Drama, of course! Well, what else would you expect when new characters are thrown in the mix and things don't go as planned? Please R&R, I'd really appreciate it! Thanks!

Chapter 1: A Movie and Packing

They sat down at a candlelight dinner, smiling. He was wearing a classy tuxedo, while she donned an equally classy, but sexy, red dress. She smiled sultrily at him.

"You look beautiful tonight," he said in a gravelly seductive whisper while looking straight into her eyes.

She winked back. "You're not looking too bad yourself." The restaurant was deserted except for them, and the lights were dimmed to a romantic darkness.

They held hands across the table, making simple conversation. Later, near the end of their meal, he gave her a bracelet.

"For you, my love," he whispered. She accepted, smiling broadly. They inched closer together, getting ready to kiss…

"Dude, what is this shit you're watching?"

Nathan jumped up from his spot on the couch and immediately switched the TV off, right before the on-screen couple's lips met. "Wha-what? No, it was nothing," he said, unable to look Skills in the eye. He folded his arms and looked at the ground, trying to avoid eye contact with him.



Walking casually over to the TV, Skills made one swift movement and swiped up the DVD case. "A True Love's Story," he read aloud. "Nice, man, nice. Should I ask?"

Rolling his eyes and standing up, Nathan snatched the DVD case back. "Why're you here dude? What do you need?"

Skills stepped forward. "First I came to see if you were al packed, but now I'm here to ask—was was that? It was so un-Nathan Scott."

"Yes, I'm packed. And it was just some random crap hanging around my house. Probably my dad's."

Skills scoffed, "Bullshit. You're dad's? Come on man, tell me what's up."

"It's nothing. Who let you in?"

"Door was unlocked. Remember, we're leaving at 11 A.M. tomorrow morning for Camp Lonikun, so be ready."

Nathan rolled his eyes. "Oh yeah. Our exciting new summer job…joy…"

Skills laughed. "Ha, I knew you were faking that excitement when Haley told you she signed the whole gang up to be counselors…if that movie was un-Nathan Scott, I wonder what running around chasing after little kids is."

"Whatever. If it means a summer with Haley, then…" he trailed off.

Suddenly, it dawned on Skills. "Ohh, I get it now man. The movie… it was for Haley, wasn't it?"

Nathan was silent for a while. "Yeah. She's a special girl, you know? I just think that this summer has so many possibilities for us…and I want to show her that she's changed me." He paused. "But I didn't know how…"



Skills was silent. "You know what man? I think the effort already shows how much she's changed you. So where'd you go to get advice on how to prove it to Haley?"

There was a silence.

"Brooke."

Another silence.

"That…wasn't smart…"

"Brooke Davis! How much did you pack?"

"Huh?" Brooke looked up from under her bed, where she was finding a pair of shoes, to answer Haley's question. "Not that much,."

"Not that much?" Haley asked incredulously, "Brooke—six full sized suitcases…I mean, come on. I only have two and Peyton only has four…"

"THREE!" Came Peyton's voice from across the room, from where she was searching inside Brooke's closet for things to borrow to pack. "I combined my toiletries bag with my shoes one. Apparently, all the heels I packed don't hold up too well in nature."

"See?" Haley began to look through Brooke's suitcases. "You have, like, seven bikinis…and what's with all this lingerie?" She picked up some lacey garment, holding it with the tips of her fingers. "I don't even know what this is, Brooke. It has like, seven unnecessary holes in all the wrong places…"

"Seriously," Peyton said walking out of the closet holding a cyan tank top, "we're going to be counselors. Not the male counselor's entertainment."



"Not Nathan's at least," Brooke said, finally emerging from under the bed with a pair of green heels, "Look's like Haley's got that covered." She pulled a lacey bra out of Haley's suitcase. "Naughty child," she winked playfully.

Haley snatched her bra back. "We shouldn't have all packed together…especially not at Brooke's house," she rolled her eyes.

"Remember guys," Brooke said, "I'm and doing this for the college credit ONLY. Nothing else…unless we meet some other hot counselors…or campers…" she grinned mischievously.

"Brooke, I'm pretty sure we signed something about not having sexual relations with campers when we applied… Oh, wait, I mean when SOMEONE signed us up…" Peyton said, turning to look directly at Haley.

"What? College credit, we'll get paid, new experiences… You guys should be THANKING me!" Haley expressed indignantly. "Plus I thought Nathan and I could use the summer away from Tree Hill and the drama… we're going to freakin' Pennsylvania…what drama is there?"

Peyton shrugged. "I don't know, but you have a point…same with me and Lucas…as for Brooke…"

"Sexy, single, and living it up!" Brooke finished the sentence for her. "That's what you were going to say, right?"

"Not exactly…but whatever," Peyton giggled.

"Well, I have to be going soon," Haley said, standing up. "I have a date with Nathan."

"Have fun, use protection," Brooke said, stuffing about four pairs of heels into a bag.

"Whatever, it's not like we've done it yet," Haley shrugged, unaware of the silence that had suddenly fallen over the room. She walked over to Brooke's mirror and started finger-combing her hair.



Peyton and Brooke looked at each other. "Are you serious?" Peyton asked, "You guys haven't?"

"What? Is that so surprising?" Haley asked, chuckling a little.

"Uh, just a LOT," Brooke said. "You and Nathan are like the classic couple…you've been together forever, everything like that. And you guys haven't done it yet? That's minus, like, twenty points for Nathan."

Haley rolled her eyes. "So now, we're giving points to guys for their sex life…real class guys, real classy."

Peyton shrugged uncomfortably and Brooke avoided Haley's eyes. The room was quiet for a while.

"ButIthinktonightmightbethenight," mumbled Haley, looking at the ground before she returned to finger-combing her brown hair.

Brooke whipped her head around so fast, Peyton was shocked that it didn't go flying across the room. "That's the spirit, Hales! Good judgement!" She cheered enthusiastically.

"Okay, you freak me out Davis," Haley said with a small playful eye roll. "See you guys tomorrow morning, when we start our camp adventure! Yay!" She practically skipped out of the room.

Peyton and Brooke exchanged looks before returning to their packing.

Okay, I know it was kind of short, but please tell me what you think! Thanks!
