Tentative Title: From the Bar to the Bed and Beyond
Author: Moonlighter719 (aka Gaby of Everwood Scripts & Transcripts)
Pairing: Brooke/Peyton, third person POV
Inspired by: The loads of slashy subtext in "The Games That Play Us" (season 1 finale) for Brooke Davis and Peyton Sawyer (the winking at the game and Mouth saying "I gotta tell ya there's a lot of love in the air" right before cutting to B&P). Chapter 1 is mostly a reenactment of the last bar scene in the finale because I honestly didn't know how to start this fanfic. I figured I might as well start in "reality".
Rating: PG-13 (if you think it needs an R, lemme know by reviewing it. This is my first slashy fanfic despite loving all the subtext on the screen in various shows for last two years or so.) - anyway, there's some language, femslash (not really naughty but there is definitely an undercurrent that's more out in the open now), and that just might be it.
Disclaimer: Not my world. It belongs to people like the folks at Warner Bros. Television and that guy who created this show {I forget his name now - Sorry but I think the first name is Josh??). If I did own the show and the characters, then Nicki would have left town a long time ago (more like she never came in the first place) and Brooke and Peyton would be in bed together long before the finale.
Summary: Brooke reveals her true feelings towards Peyton and it leads to things you would never see on broadcast TV. At least on a show where they take themselves too seriously.
Again, note this is femslash. If you don't like the idea of girls with girls, then click on the button that will take you out of this fic 'cause you probably wouldn't like this one.
My thanks to Casandra on the Fan Forum for her continued encouragement for me to write this story.
CHAPTER 1 – The Bar
Brooke takes her turn at the pool table in a local bar. Standing near where Brooke hits the ball is Nicki, drink in hand. Self-assured Brooke speaks, "Question. Who is sexy, talented, and knows where Jake is? Oh I know, it's me."
Nicki scoffs it off, "So where is he?"
"Tell you what. I'll play you for it. You beat me, I'll tell you where he went," Brooke replies, not letting Nicki get to her.
"I don't want to play games, Brooke. Just tell me where Jake took Jenny," Nicki replies, not letting Brooke get to her. Brooke sets down her pool stick. She grabs a napkin and writes a certain city beginning with the letter "S" on it. She hands it to Nicki who responds with, "So that's it, huh?" and Brooke takes the napkin back. "Betrayal of Peyton complete. How does it feel?"
Brooke, cool as ever, snappishly replies, "It feels like you should be gone by now because you got your information." Brooke then burns the "evidence."
As Nicki walks off, she finishes with a final comment to Brooke, "You know, Brooke, you should really try to be a better person. Nobody likes a bitch."
With that, Brooke thinks to herself, "So that's why nobody likes you, Nicki. 'Cause you're the true bitch!" while setting up for a new game of pool. She places two balls in the bracket when she spots a familiar hand putting a third ball in the bracket.
"Was that Nicki you were talking to?" Peyton asks, wary of her best friend's intentions. She's as sexy as hell in a blue halter top that shows some cleavage.
Brooke calmly responds, "Yeah. I told her where Jake went." Then she releases a smile, "And she bought it, just like we planned." Peyton looks relieved as her best friend continues, "It's going to be a long road trip to Seattle."
Brooke looks into her best friend's eyes, full with love, and finishes her thought, "I told you, Peyton. I'm here for you."
This time, Peyton agrees with a nod, "I know you are."
They hug and Brooke holds on just a tiny bit longer, truly embracing the moment.
TO BE CONTINUED....
