A/N: I haven't written anything in a very long time and this is my second time trying to write a ff, so if I suck at it please understand.

Disclaimer: I own nothing. Though I wish I did own OTH because Leyton would have gotten together a loooong time ago and Lucas wouldn't be a jerk is Season 5.


"Hello" Brooke said anxiously into her phone as she was awaiting news about Angie's safe arrival back to her parents.

"Hello" Peyton answered her cell phone without looking at the caller id, expecting a call from Mia about the guy who says he knew Ellie.

"Hello" said Lindsay into her cell phone expecting Lucas to call her and tell her that he still misses her and that she is the one he wants to be with despite her having lied to him.

"Hey, It's me," Lucas Eugene Scott said into his cell, "look, I'm at the airport and I have two tickets to Las Vegas, do you want to get married tonight?'

There was stunned silence in answer to his question.

"Hey, are you still there?" Lucas asked, a little nervously.

"Yeah,…yeah, I'm still here, am I dreaming or has my working nights gone to my head and is making me hear things?" the shocked voice replied to his query.

He laughed at that. "So, what's the answer going to be? Are you going to come and marry me or not?" he said with amusement.

"I'll be there in 15 minutes. I just need to go and pack some things, never mind, hell, I'll just buy some clothes there. I'm not going to give you a chance to change your mind. don't leave without me, ok?" was the hurried reply. "I'll be right there!"

"Ok, see you soon. I'll be waiting for you!" Lucas smiled as he hung up. How did he ever think that he could live without this feisty, lovable, funny, beautiful woman? She was and always has been his dream girl, his beautiful Peyton. He had loved her for as long as he could remember. Even in elementary school, he was fascinated and awed with her beauty and wondered about the sadness that haunted her beautiful green eyes. Wanting to change that sorrow in her eyes to joy, though she never noticed him nor realized that he gazed at her so longingly since they were children. Lucas thought of Peyton's long, curly, blond hair, which always looked as if she had run her fingers through it nervously, and his heart filled with love and tenderness. He couldn't wait until she got there. He was tired of hiding from his emotions, from keeping his heart from getting hurt again. How could he keep running away, trying to protect his heart, when Peyton Elizabeth Sawyer was his heart?

Lucas smiled and relaxed back into his seat at the airport, waiting for his beautiful love to get there so they can begin their life together.

xoxoxoxo

Peyton Sawyer hurriedly put the paperwork, for the new band that she was considering signing, away. She was so happy, Lucas called her and wants to marry her. Her dream was about to com true.

She laughed happily, then started putting her work away while singing aloud in a joyful voice.

There's a time and place for everything, for everyoneWe can push with all our might, but nothing's gonna come

Oh no, nothing's gonna changeAnd if I asked you not to try Oh could you let it beI wanna hold you and say

We can't throw this all awayTell me you won't go, you won't go Do you have to hear me say I can't stop lovin' you

And no matter what I say or doYou know my heart is true, oh I can't stop loving you

Peyton laughed when she realised that she was singing a Van Halen song, remembering back to the time four years ago, when she and Lucas were together. She was so happy being with him and she told him that she was feeling like she was living in an Air Supply song and he told her that if they were going to go 80's, he was more of a Van Halen fan.

The memory made Peyton smile and she started to dance while she sang.

You change your friends, your place in lifeYou can change your mind, we can change the way we say And do anytime

Oh no, but I think you'll findThat when you look inside your heart Oh baby, I'll be there, yeah

Hold on I'm holding on Baby, just come on, come on, come on I just wanna hear you say I can't stop lovin' you

And no matter what you say or doYou know my heart is true, oh I can't stop lovin' you Oh, I'm so twisted and tied

And all I remember Was how hard we tried Only to surrenderAnd when it's over I know how it's gonna beAnd true love will never die No, not fade away

Peyton hears a knock on her office door, and she calls to the person to "wait a minute", then continues to sing the Van Halen song. Her back is to the door as she put away more documents into her filing cabinets.

And I can't stop lovin' you No matter what I say or do You know my heart is true, oh I can't stop lovin' you And I know what I got to do

Hey Ray, what you said is true I can't stop lovin' you, oh Oh, I can't stop lovin' you

While she finished singing the song and putting all the work she had done away, she heard the door open and someone come into her office.

Peyton turned around to talk to whoever came in. When she recognizes who it is, her face registers shock and horror.

She would know that face anywhere, it was the face of Ian Banks….otherwise known as Psycho Derek.

"Hello Peyton" The intruder smiles, then closes the door with a loud thud.


The lyrics part got messed up but whatever...
