ch. 2
Okay so I know I'm not Mattuf1 but seriously no reviews...zilch...well then i'll just keep updating this one anyways.
---------------
Brooke Davis answers her phone
'Hello'
She pauses listening to the voice on the other end and then rolls her eyes. She pauses as the tone of the conversation changes.
'Um sure, yeah I'll be there,' she responds nervously.
------------
Lyndsey answers the phone her eyes are incredulous in disbelief
'Hey I was just thinking about you,' she says quietly.
She pauses listening to the news on the other end of line.
'Wait a moment your breaking up. I can't hear you above the static,' she pauses straining to hear.
'You've got to be kidding me,' she exclaims rather loudly.
Other passengers look around rather annoyed.
Aisles away Lucas Scott hears the familiar voice and frowns into his phone.
'Hey are you still there'
----------------------------
Peyton Sawyer closes her phone. She is somewhat dazed and confused. She looks around and grabs her keys not even thinking about where she is headed. Her vision is somewhat blurred. Her mind is swimming regarding the strange conversation she has just experienced.
---------------------------
Brooke Davis is carrying three Louis Vuitton suitcases her purse and her black berry.
'C'mon Millicent pick up puh-lease.'
There is a knock on the door.
"Gees I said I would hurry" she shouted out loud.
The door opens and Owen pokes his head in the door causing everything in Brookes hands to collapse to the floor.
'What are you doing here?,' she rasps.
'I came to talk,' he said quietly.
'It's too late I'm on my way out of town and to be honest, I really think you lost your chance,' 'Brooke listen to me five minutes' Brooke ignores and starts to pull all her belongings together.
Her blackberry managed to land at his feet. He picks it up and she simply snatches it from him.
'Brooke look I'm sorry. I should've been able to handle it but I couldn't. I mean you want a baby ... I'm not ready to be a father I just wanted to get to know the real you.'
'Well aren't you a little late. I have to go. Somebody worthwhile needs me,' she snapped.
'Brooke I wanna talk to you. I mean I know I gave you a hard time but...,' Owen said raking his hands through his brown spikes.
'That's right you gave me a hard time. You made me prove myself to you but it was you who needed to prove whether you can handle being around me and now that you missed it you think that I just all of sudden need you right now' Brooke said gathering her stuff and pushing past him.
'Listen Brooke I love you,' he said grabbing her arm roughly, ' If you need me to be this baby's dad to prove I'm worthy than fine I'll do whatever it takes. I know I messed up with you because there is something in me that has made me wanna stop my car every time I pass your store and demand you be with me for the rest of our lives. I've never felt that way before about any girl and I'm just now I admitting it. That I feel that way about one....What's so funny?'
Brooke is giggling to herself. Owen looked almost cartoonish with his face nearly flushed and a vein pulsating out of his forehead.
'So you'll do almost anything,' she kinked her eyebrow.
His eyes narrowed sensing something was about to happen unexpected.
'Hit me with you best shot Brooke Davis'
----------------------
Lucas Scott was nervously looking at his phone. Aisles away Lyndsey was nervously staring at hers, trying to determine what to do about the phone call she just received. Peyton Sawyer found herself standing outside of Tree Hill Airport eyebrows furrowed heart racing. She slowly entered looking around. People moved around her in a surreal fashion and she didn't see Brooke anywhere about. An officer passed by frowning at her. Her eyes seemed to search the crowd out, however the face she made out wasn't the one she expected. Lyndsey looked up and looked at her. Peytons heart began to race as she turned to exit.
'Not to fast young lady. Where you headed, ' Brooke said clutching her friend.
'Brooke I cant do this its too much'
'Since when has the Peyton Sawyer been scared of a challenge' The words jolted Peyton into the past
------------
'Since when has the Peyton Saywer been scared of a challenge'
Her father, Larry, said joking with her concerning her late of food. Peyton was in particular a picky eater so the new food sitting before her was mostly likely headed toward the pail. They were sitting out on a pier in Malibu. Peytons face was contorting in disgust as she speared her strange colored sushi with a chopstick.
'So tell me about this whole Lucas marriage situation,' he started playfully. He knew she was still upset about but he needed her to talk about it.
'Dad I dont wanna talk about it,' she sighed for the thousandth time. Nathan and Haley had been calling. Brooke had been calling. Karen even called twice. No one wanted to give her space.
'O c'mon Peyton. I need accurate quotes before I strangle him. I need my story to be credible if the police finger for the murder of rake boy,' he said trying to keep a straight face.
'Dad seriously,' she said pinching her nose.
But Larry wouldnt stop joking about it. Finally Peyton was unable to take it.
'Why can't you just drop it,' she snapped, 'I said I dont wanna talk about. I hate how you try to be my dad only when you feel like it'
Larry stopped stung by her words. Peyton just looked at him tears streaming and took off running. Larry ran after calling her name but Peyton didnt care. She felt as if every step she took another piece of her fell off. As if there was nothing there anymore to hold it together. It took her a moment to realize that the sickening crush and screech of breaks werent simply because she was running through traffic.
-----------
Tears were slipping down her face in the airport.
'Peyton whats wrong...It can't be too hard I'm right here and guess what Owen's is coming with us," Brooke said smiling.
'I just miss Larry. I never got say goodbye and now this' Peyton said holding Brooke tightly.
'I know sweetie I know,' Brooke said gently rocking her.
----------------------
Lyndsey started when she saw Peyton at the airport. It wasn't the same Peyton that came rushing into her office several weeks ago. She looked scared and vulnerable. She didnt have any baggage with her. Lyndsey studied her from a distance. Her tall model like frame with her large green eyes and pefectly layered hair were more than intimidating. Was she kidding herself? She looked down at her phone to open it and then shook her head and looked up. Their eyes locked causing her to shift in her seat. Peyton's eyes widened and she turned to go. Lyndsey spied the familiar face of Brooke Davis walking up behind lugging severals bags behind her. She started to move forward until she saw the familiar backside of someone else walking swiftly toward the two of them. Her eyes narrowed in jealousy. He wasn't supposed to be walking towards Peyton she thought. He said yes to me not her. Lyndsey tried to sort her feelings together. Was it gonna be like this everytime they were all together?
------------------------
Um I hope I get some reviews...a couple of them. Like really is it that bad?
