Chapter 1

First of all let me just say that I do not own One Tree Hill or anything associated with One Tree Hill.

This is a story set during and after Season 5. I changed it a little bit to fit the story as it was partially written before the wedding happened on the show. I have had this story for a while and just never had the nerve to post it. So please tell me what you think as this is my first Fan Fic.

This is a story about Peyton and Lucas and their love for each other.

"I love you Lucas, I want us to be together I want us to be the ones getting married next week. Not you and her. I have always loved you can't you see that? When you asked me to marry you I wasn't ready I needed more time and you weren't willing to give me that time" Peyton says crying. "We had just gotten back together and we had discussed taking things slow, then out of nowhere you ask me to marry you after just being back together for three weeks."

"Peyton it isn't about you loving me. It isn't that I don't love you I always will but I am getting married next week to Lindsey whether you like it or not. You had years to know if you loved me enough to marry me. I didn't feel I needed any more time I wanted to make you my wife but you didn't want that." Peyton looks at Lucas for what seems like forever and then she says simply, "I did want to marry you just not right then I needed more time." Then she turns to leave but before she does she says "Oh and Lucas you never once said your marrying her because you love her. But you did say you would always love me." Then she walks out the door leaving Lucas standing there stunned about what had just happened. Lucas says to himself, "What the hell just happened?"

Two years later…

"Peyton where the hell are you?"

"I'm in here Brooke in the kids room." Brooke walks into the room to see Peyton sitting on the floor playing with her 17 month old twin girls.

"Hey how are my girls today?" Brooke asks reaching down to pick up one of the babies.

"Oh they are great today they are doing a lot better. I think they are finally getting over those colds they had." Peyton responds.

"Well I was wondering if we could maybe ask Haley or Karen to watch these little angels so they're mommy and Aunt Brooke can go have an adult lunch. There is something we need to discuss."

"Um yeah ok I can probably get Haley to keep an eye on them. Jamie loves to be around these sweet babies."

A little while later after Peyton and Brooke drop off the girls to Haley. Peyton and Brooke are sitting at a table eating lunch when Brooke looks at Peyton and says "So P. Sawyer I have to ask you a serious question. What would you say if I told you that I am getting married?" Peyton looks at her stunned and asks "Owen asked you to marry him?"

Brooke looks at her with a huge smile on her face and says." Yes, he did and I am so excited. I am so happy Peyton he makes me so darn happy."

"I am so happy for you Brooke that is such great news. So, have you set a date yet?"

"Not yet but we will be setting a date very soon and you as my maid of honor will be the first to know."

Meanwhile at Haley and Nathan's house.

"Ok Jamie honey can you help me get your sister and the twins ready to go to the park please?" Haley asked her seven year old son.

" Sure Mama I can help you. Who's coat do you want me to put on first? Briana, Ellie, or Anna's?" Jamie asked his mother.

"Oh honey it doesn't matter as soon as I finish putting the sandwiches in the basket I'll help you."

Right then Nathan walks in the house and looks at the mess that is in the living room and then looks at the kids.

"Um Haley what are you doing?" He asks his wife. " Oh Nathan, we are going to the park."

"Let me get this straight you are taking Jamie and the girls to the park by yourself?" He asks stunned.

"Um yeah that is the plan. Unless you wanna go with me!" She says looking at him with a grin on her face.

"Sure I will go cause it looks like you are going to need the help." Then they both start laughing. Just then Haley's phone rings and it is Peyton.

"Hey, Haley I just wanted to let you know that I am on my way to get the girls so don't worry about taking them with you to the park. Or I can go with you and we can have some fun and take some pictures."

"Oh ok that sounds even better." Haley says a little relieved. "Ok well then I will see you in a few." Peyton tells her.

A few moments later the doorbell rings and Nathan says to Haley that it is probably Peyton and so he goes to answer the door with Ellie on his hip.

He opens the door and stands there surprised. "Lucas what the hell are you doing here?"

Okay so this is the end of the first chapter so please any reviews you have I want to hear them. This is my first story so if you can give me feedback it will really help me with the rest of the chapters.

Short preview of next chapter Lucas will find out he is the father of the twins and also in the next two chapters we will find out when Peyton got pregnant and what Lucas has been up to for the last two years.
