Author's Notes

Hey All! Yes, I know. ANOTHER story and I still haven't finished or even updated my other's in an incredibly long amount of time, but I just couldn't get this off my mind. My best friend got me into One Tree Hill awhile ago and I absolutely love it! And I came up with this story in my head. So, I finished the first chapter and yeah...lol. I've never really written anything like this before, or a One Tree Hill fic, but I felt it needed to be done. Alright, so tell me what you think about it. Be honest. (in this fic Jake and Rachel aren't popular, they hang with the outcasts, even though Rachel's rich she just doesn't like the popular group.)

Two slim, worn out figures lay in the bed of the room they were in, both cuddled into each other. The two brunettes relished in the aftermath of the very intimate experience they shared together with huge smiles on both of their faces, making both pairs of dimples show on each of their faces. One had deep brown eyes and shoulder length wavy hair that, at the moment, looked wild. She held onto the other brunette, whose green eyes were currently closed as she laid her head on the other girl's chest. Her own brown hair was out of place as well, but still mostly straight. She wrapped her arm a little tighter around the brown-eyed girl. The brown-eyed girl just grinned a lazy grin and softly ran her hand up and down the other's back. She hated the fact that she had to leave, but that was their routine. They had to keep their relationship a secret from their friends because there would be blood if anyone found out what was going on between the two lovers.

"Can't you stay tonight?" the green-eyed girl asked as she finally opened her eyes and looked into the other's brown pools.

"Babe, you know I want to, but I can't. WE can't," she said emphasizing the statement by pointing between herself and the other girl. The green-eyed girl looked down.

"I know," she said dejectedly as she again closed her eyes and placed her head once again on the others chest, trying to burrow into her as much as she could. "Can you just stay a little while longer?"

"Anything for you," she said, starting her hand back up in it's motion going up and down the other's back.

"I love you, Faith," the girl said starting to fall asleep.

"I love you too, Brooke." She waited until she was sure the other girl was asleep until she slipped out from underneath Brooke and gathered her clothing. Turning back and tucking her girlfriend in, she placed a small kiss on her temple before turning again and leaving her home with Brooke to go to her hell with her mother.

Brooke woke up alone in her bed. She knew she would. She wished things could be simpler, easier, for her sake and for Faith's. She loved that girl more than anything and it hurt her that she had to keep the best thing in her life a secret. She brushed the thought away. She got out of bed, pulling the sheet with her to cover her still naked figure and headed to the bathroom. Once she was finished with her shower, picking out her outfit, styling her hair, applying her makeup, and changing to another outfit at the last minute, she ran out her door, leading to the side of her house, and hurried to her powder blue Volkswagen Beatle parked on the street.

Once she got to Tree Hill High, she parked next to a familiar 1968 Mercury Comet and skipped over to the curly haired blond getting out of the convertible.

"Who's got you so happy?" the blond asked.

"Why does it have to be a who? Can't it be a what? Am I really that much of a slut?" Brooke whined to her companion.

"Brooke, calm down. I was kidding," the blond said as she put her arm around Brooke's shoulders, "But seriously, who…what has you so happy?" she asked emphasizing the word 'what.'

"If I tell you I'll have to kill you," Brooke said slipping out from under the other's arm.

"Brooke, that's so not fair! As the 'best friend rules' go, the number one rule is to not keep secrets. So spill," she commanded as the two made their way into the building and out of the parking lot.

"Tutor Girl!" Brooke exclaimed, seeing a short brown haired girl with a horrible knitted poncho. The other girl walked up to them and joined them on their walk to their lockers.

"Hey Brooke, Peyton. How was your guys' weekend?" she sweetly asked the two.

"Mine was fine, but Brooke won't tell me what happened during hers," Peyton complained.

"Who said there was anything to tell?" Brooke asked innocently.

"With the grin on her face, I don't think we wanna know the details Peyton," the brunette said as they finally reached their lockers, which were very close together, so they could continue their conversation.

"But Haley," Peyton tried but was interrupted by a blond boy walking up to them. Brooke smiled and reached up to put a hand on the boy's shoulder.

"Lucas and I hung out and watched movies. Right Luke?" Lucas nodded his head 'yes' and Brooke continued. "See, my weekend really wasn't all that…No offence Luke."

"None taken," he said with a smile as he looked down at the girl.

"So that's why you ditched me Saturday!" Haley joked. The three went on laughing and talking as Brooke zoned out, coyly watching as Faith made her way down the hallway with her two best friends, Jake and Rachel. Faith met her gaze for a second, but quickly looked away. Brooke turned her head back to her friends, but still couldn't concentrate on the conversation.

"B. Davis, you with us?" Brooke was pulled back to the land of the living by a familiar voice.

"What? Oh yeah. Sorry P. Sawyer. I was just daydreaming," she said with a fake smile. Peyton gave her a questioning look, but decided not to push the issue until they were alone together.

"Guys I better get going. I'm supposed to meet Nathan before homeroom. So, I'll see you guys later," Haley said with a smile and started walking away, but stopped when she heard her name.

"Haley wait! I'll walk with you," Lucas offered. Haley smiled and the two waved their goodbyes to the two girls and walked down the hall. Peyton linked her arm through her best friend's and began walking down the hall with her.

"So B. Davis, you wanna hang out tonight. I miss my very valuable Brooke time."

"Um, yeah P. Sawyer. What'd ya have in mind?" Brooke questioned.

"We can just hang out. You know, like old times. You can stay over and I'll bring you to school tomorrow," Peyton answered.

"Sure. Just pick me up at my house after school."

"Ok. See you in 4th." And with that the girls split up to start their day.

Brooke strode to the AV room, where she normally spent her free period. Mouth had given her a copy of the key when she had asked if she could spend her free period there in their Sophomore year, and had been going there every year after. But instead of quietly reading like she normally did, Faith chose that day to skip her class and join Brooke. She did it every once in awhile when she wanted to see her girlfriend. Faith opened the door and snuck behind her girlfriend, who was sitting in a chair facing the other way with her iPod playing through her earphones and reading a book. Faith snaked her arms around the other girl from behind and nuzzled her face in Brooke's neck. Brooke jumped a bit, startled, but relaxed into the embrace and moved her neck so Faith had more room and Faith started kissing her neck.

"Mmm. I missed you baby," Faith told her as she placed feather-light kisses on the skin of her girlfriend's neck and moved up to her jaw.

"Fai-Faith, we can't do this here," Brooke stuttered.

"I never followed the rules and last time I checked you didn't either."

"Oh God. Faith, you ne-need t-to st-op," she told Faith as she reached one of her weak spots.

"Come on B. Let's have some fun," Faith tried to persuade her girlfriend. Brooke stood up from the chair and turned towards Faith. "I'm sorry baby. I just miss you." Brooke kept stepping closer to Faith until their chests were touching and placed a hand on Faith's face.

"I know baby. I'm just so tired of hiding and lying. I think I'm gonna tell Peyton tonight," Brooke confessed. Faith widened her eyes at Brooke's direction.

"What?! Were you even going to talk to me about it?" Faith was pissed.

"I'm telling you about it now, okay?" Brooke matched Faith's angry tone.

"Damn it Brooke, you can't do that," Faith demanded, trying to calm down.

"Why can't I? She's my best friend! And she's already suspicious. She'll be okay with it! And if she isn't then fuck her! But I think it's time we told the people we can trust. You can tell Jake and Rachel and I'll tell Peyton and Haley, okay?" Her voice got softer at the end. She looked at Faith and Faith let her see the fear she held in her eyes.

"What if they tell? What if they're not okay with it?" Faith frantically asked. Only Brooke got to see this part of her, the vulnerable part.

"Hey, they're our best friends for a reason. And if they tell or can't handle it we'll deal with it. Together," she said lacing their hands together. Faith nodded her head as a sign of agreement. "Come on, I wanna sit down," Brooke said, pulling Faith down with her as she sat on the ground with her back against the wall. Faith put her head on Brooke's shoulder and Brooke held onto Faith. The two stayed like that for the rest of the period.
