A/N: Really thanks again for all your reviews. They keep motivated and I appreciate reading what you all want to say to me. So thanks. I just want to clear up one thing: I haven't planned any Brucas in my story actually (I mean as relationship but I do love them as friends.) I just think that that could ruin Breyton and we kind of had enough of Brucas/Leyton love triangles during the first 4 seasons of the show. BUT I do have a love interesting or just a one night stand planned for Lucas and I already decided with who. We all know how Lucas reacts when he's in denial and all. So enjoy the chapter. I included everyone :)
Disclaimer: I don't own OTH and its characters. As you might have noticed, I'm not Mark.
Chapter 3
Lucas was finally getting what he wanted. His book became a huge success in a few months, and some movie producer was planning on turning it into a movie. The past 4 years Lucas' life hadn't been easy, Peyton left for LA and never came back, and he didn't want to have his book published because of her. Because now it was all over. But then one day he got an interesting call from Lindsey Strauss, a book editor from New York who wanted to publish his book. apparently Nathan and Haley were behind this.
Haley found Lucas' book in his computer one day when she was looking for some rap songs since Jamie was really into rap, thanks to Nathan. As a literature teacher and Lucas' best friend she read a few chapters and it was really good in her opinion. So she got Nathan to read some chapters to, so they agreed together that this could be Lucas' chance. His words were too special to be wasted and the way he wrote his story, everyone should read that.
And now he was living his dream.
Someone knocked at the door and Lucas went to open it. It was Jamie and Nathan.
"Hey little brother" he greeted Nathan and hugged him before he took Jamie into his arms.
"J. Luke"
Lucas spent the day with Nathan and Jamie at the River Court. It always felt good to him, he loved playing basketball and he would do it sometimes despite his heart condition.
Nathan and Jamie got home just in time for dinner.
"Uhm, something smells good in here. Mommy must have cooked something delicious" Jamie said as he ran to the kitchen to find Haley.
"Jamie!" She knelt down to hug him. "Did you have fun today?"
"yeah we played basketball at the River Court. Uncle Luke beat Daddy and he's a little down now." He said joking.
"Ehy, what are you saying?" Nathan grabbed Jamie's hat as a joke and then kissed Haley.
"What about you go take a shower now? So mommy finishes cooking and daddy can complain without you mocking him?" Haley said laughing
"Okay, but he was really bad today." Then Jamie ran up upstairs.
"You know, he sounds like someone." Haley said as she got up to fix the food.
"What? You can not tell he's not our son!" Nathan hugged Haley from behind and kissed her head.

Peyton was woken up in the middle of the night by a knock at the door. Still sleepy she got up from bed trying not to wake Julian up and went to open the door.
"P. Sawyer!" Brooke yelled with her raspy voice before hugging her.
Peyton broke the hug. "Brooke.. Hi" She said a little confused.
"Sorry to barge in, but here's the thing." Brooke said closing the door behind her. "I miss you, and you miss me!... Right?" Brooke sounded even more excited.
"Peyton who is it? It's 3 am.!" Julian said a little annoyed making his presence known in the living room.
"Oh.. Ewww. Oh my God" Brooke tried to hide her eyes.
Peyton pushed Julian into their bedroom and then went to check on Brooke.
"Sorry about that." Peyton said a little embarrassed.
"Wow, you look like a married couple. Wait. You're not married?!" Brooke grabbed Peyton's left hand. "Thank God. Who would get married without their best friend?"
Peyton looked at Brooke laughing. "Okay, B. Davis. You need some rest"

The morning after was less awkward. Peyton was making breakfast while Julian and Brooke were making conversations.
"So you're the famous Brooke Davis, owner of Clothes over Bros" Julian said as he showed Brooke her B. Davis magazine.
"Peyton's always reading this thing" He whispered to Brooke.

In the meantime Lucas had finally decided to tell Nathan and Haley that some movie producer was turning his novel into a movie.
"He should be here any minute" Haley said watching the clock another time.
"Will you stop pacing around, Haley James? You're gonna make a hole in the floor" Nathan said trying not to laugh at how nervous his wife was.
The door suddenly opened and Lucas came in.
"You didn't suddenly realise that you're gay?" Nathan said sarcastically and Haley looked at him annoyed.
Lucas avoided Nathan's comment with a laugh "They are turning my book into a movie"
Haley immediately went to hug Lucas "I'm so proud of you, Luke"
"But where are you gonna find someone as cool as me? I guess I'm gonna have to play myself." Nathan said joking.
"Well no one can be such an ass like you" Lucas said laughing.

"Yes, sure. I can do that" Julian said before he hung up on the phone
"Do what?" Peyton asked out of curiosity as she entered in the room
"They want me to go to Tree Hill to meet the author, slash your ex boyfriend so we can choose a director and start looking for the actors." Peyton was about to reply but Julian stopped her.
"I want you to come with me. You know the place better than me plus you can catch up with your old friends"
"I haven't talked to them for 4 years. I can't magically re appear in their lives. It's not fair" She kind of whispered the last part to herself.
"Is this about Lucas?" Julian was starting to get mad.
"What does Lucas have to do with this?" Peyton's tone of voice was a little louder.
"You haven't read what he wrote about you then. You only read about the Brucas part." Julian said sounding more disappointed than mad.
"I can't go to Tree Hill" Peyton said leaving Julian alone in their room.
"Julian wants me to go to Tree Hill with him" Peyton said as she sat next to Brooke.
"He's making the movie so they're just looking for locations and they want to meet the author. That's normal."Brooke said as she hugged Peyton.
"It's gonna be alright, I will come with you." Her raspy voice comforted her.

"Why are they turning your book into a movie?" Jamie asked while he and Lucas were playing basketball.
"This is what usually happens when a book is really famous. You know, kind of like Harry Potter." Lucas explained to his little nephew.
"Uncle Luke this is so cool. Am I in the book?"
"Well, you weren't even born when I wrote it but your mom was already expecting you." Lucas said as he stroked Jamie's head.
"Jamie Scott, you should be in bed already! It's late for you" Haley yelled as she approached the two of them and took Jamie in her arms.
Jamie and Haley both greeted Lucas so he could go home. As he was making his way back home he found Lindsey in front of his house ready to ring the bell.
"Lindsey." Lucas stroked his hair in confusion. He had no idea why Lindsey was here and what could be the reason why she was there at such a late hour.
"We have to talk" Lindsey said as she sounded really calm.

Peyton and Brooke had decided that they would leave for Tree Hill together, and Julian was okay with that. He would join them later.
"I can't believe we're actually going home" Brooke said glaring at Peyton while she was packing.
"We are NOT going home. You live in Manhattan and I live in LA"
"Whatever you say. But I know you will change your mind eventually." Brooke threw a dress at Peyton.
"It's just a little vacation, you know. We'll be home before you even know." It came out as Peyton was trying to convince herself more.
And then they were: Peyton and Brooke standing next to each other at the Tree Hill airport.
"It really feels like we're home though." Brooke whispered and Peyton nodded without saying anything.
A/N Breyton back in Tree Hill, wo hoo. Okay. So next chapter we'll see how both of them react to being back in their home town. Andd if you want to try guessing who will be the first person to know that they're back, tell me :) As always leave a review, you can always suggest me anything or tell me what you liked or didn't like. V.
NEW A/N I apologize if this chapter kind of confused you. I fixed so now it's clearer :)
