Peyton and Lucas have lived together since college ended. Although they did not go to the same school both wound up going to school in New York City. After a big fight towards the end of senior year the two did not speak through graduation and the summer. After the fall term of college Lucas went out one night to pick up some takeout while studying and Peyton was doing the same at the same restaurant. The two decided to have dinner together and started speaking and working out their problems. Neither one could really remember what the fight had been about and they decided to start their relationship all over again with a fresh slate. They spent the entire night talking about their goals and dreams. Lucas wanted a degree in psychology dealing with children who have had bad family experiences. Peyton still wanted to go into drawing. She was going to the art institute working on comics and also paint more.
After four years are college Peyton and Lucas were living together and had been dating pretty much since running into each other that night at the restaurant. They found their relationship was much better than in highschool. The petty things didn't matter anymore and they were completely in love with each other. They had talked about the future many times both saying they wanted to get married and have kids but that is after they have settled down with their work. Lucas still had to set up his practice and Peyton wanted to get a good job.
Peyton and Lucas still kept in touch with Nathan and Haley. They had decided to go to school together close to home at UNC, where Haley got an academic scholarship and Nathan played basketball. The two of them were still married but went through a rough time the first year of college. Both wanted to experience the college life like most freshmen except they werent like most freshmen. After surviving the rough time they flourished and both were graduating with honors and jobs lined up in New York. Nathan got his degree in business and was working with some sports bars where he was going to become part owner and Haley became a sports therapist, where she lined up a job with the New York Knicks and also the New York Giants. Peyton and Lucas were excited their two close friends were moving to New York City so they could all hang out all the time.
It was the last night before their lives would officially start with Lucas interning at a private practice and Peyton working for the New Yorker. They decided to have a relaxing night of ordering in food and watching some movies. Peyton had been out most of the day shopping getting ready for tomorrow. Both were super excited. Lucas had spent the entire day preparing the night. He could not believe that tonight was the night that would officially change their lives forever. He spent the morning talking to his mom getting some advice and going over some details. He also talked to Peyton's dad. After being gone most of her highschool years Peyton's dad finally settled down and stayed in Tree Hill. The two had become very close along with Lucas who almost felt like Mr. Sawyer was like a father to him.
Please review so I can know if I should continue... I promise next chapter will be very interesting, this was just laying down the backround.
