Once the situation was explained Nathan and Haley couldn't help but laugh at the situation their two friends always seem to get into.
After Callie was done with Jamie's cast she pulled Arizona over towards Brooke and Peyton intent on apologizing again.
"Excuse me" she said to grab their attention. "I just wanted to say I'm sorry again and was wondering if you would like to join us for lunch" she offered.
Brooke and Peyton shared a look and then glanced over at Nathan and Haley. Once they locked eyes the silent communication that came from being friends for over a decade began and they finally nodded their head saying that they were fine and they should go.
"Alright, I think we can do lunch. I'm sure our friends want to head back to the hotel anyways and relax a little after the whole ordeal today." Peyton said with a nod.
"Great" Arizona cheered and smiled her signature dimpled smile.
"Oh do they have Mac and Cheese? I always eat Mac and Cheese when I'm at the hospital" Brooke said with childish delight as she too pulled out her dimpled grin. Peyton and Callie couldn't help but roll their eyes and share a grin of their own over their child like partners, and just like that Callie knew she was forgiven and everything would be alright.
"Of course they do, and it's some of the best hospital Mac and Cheese I've ever had" Arizona said as she looped her arm through Brooke's and led her down the hall with their significant others following and chuckling under their breath.
Once the group sat down with their respective lunches Callie looked over at Peyton and couldn't help but wince slightly at the stitches that were present on her otherwise unmarred face.
Peyton who happened to look up and catch the wince knew what the Latina was thinking, "hey Callie, really its fine, I completely understand and believe or not this is not the first time I've been hit" Peyton chuckled out and then titled her head in Brooke's direction and said "she slapped me good when I said I had feelings for her boyfriend"
Once Brooke heard her girlfriend say that her head snapped up and she began to blush. Callie and Arizona jerk slightly at hearing boyfriend.
"Wait…Boyfriend?" Arizona can't help but ask, "I thought you two were…" and she let her question trail off as she motioned between the two girls.
"Oh" Brooke said with a raspy chuckle "We are, have been for six years now, but we didn't get together until after high school, this all happened during the drama that is Tree Hill High"
"What happened?" Callie said as she leaned forward, eager to hear the story and she smiled slightly when she saw Arizona do the same.
"Well…" Peyton started but was interrupted by her girlfriend.
"No way P. Sawyer, this is my story and angst and drama filled situation, I get to tell it" Brooke said with a smirk.
"Alright" Peyton said as she held up her hands in defeat.
"Well it all started when Peyton hear told me that she had feelings for my boyfriend at the time Lucas Scott, now a little back story is that I had been dating Lucas before and Peyton was the reason we broke up the first time, so once we got back together and Goldilocks here dropped that little nugget on me I was none too happy and may have freaked out slightly…" Brooke started and she and Peyton shared a fond smile as they both remembered what happened that day.
*Flashback*
"I had this horrible dream last night that my best friend told me that she had feelings for my boyfriend. Oh, wait, but that wasn't a dream was it?" Brooke said once she entered Peyton's room.
Peyton unable to look Brooke in the eyes looks down at her shoes but she looks up when she sees Brooke head towards the closet and start grabbing her things.
"Brooke" Peyton starts but Brooke interrupts "Why now Peyton? Why would you tell me you have feelings for Lucas now, when I have so much stuff going on in my life?! Stuff that you don't even know about!"
"So do I okay, trust me. But, I didn't wish for this alright, I wished for Jake!" Peyton said as she tried to defend herself.
"Oh right, you wished for Jake, after you wished for Pete and then Lucas! I cannot believe this is happening again" Brooke said in disbelief as she walked into the closet to get some more of her things.
"It's not okay, it's not. Okay, the last time…" Peyton started trying to defend herself. Brooke however can't help but erupt into anger at what Peyton is saying.
"The last time! Do you hear yourself right now? The last time you tried to steal my boyfriend! He's on the door Peyton" Brooke yells as she marches over to the closet door and smacks it with her hand "He's on the damn door under me!"
"I don't want to steal him okay" Peyton says with tears starting to pool in her eyes.
"But you like him" Brooke said as she stared at her best friend and when Peyton didn't say anything and started to looked away Brooke just scoffed and headed back into the closet.
"Brooke I'm not going to do anything about it okay? I'll just bury it" Peyton said unable to believe that she might lose Brooke.
"You can't, okay! It's out there, like that damn time capsule! And you could have buried it and not said anything to me about it. So, what is that about?"
"I don't, I just wanted to be honest with you alright! I didn't want to make the same mistake as last time. And, you even said last night at TRIC that you didn't really miss him" Peyton said grasping at straws. Peyton didn't even see it coming before her head snapped to the side and her cheek burned in pain. She raised her head and looked into the fiery eyes of her best friend.
"Don't you dare! Don't you dare twist my words around to make yourself feel like you are not a back-stabbing two faced bitch Peyton, because you are and you know it" Brooke said with an angry whisper that scared Peyton a little.
*Flashback Ends*
"… And then I grabbed my stuff and left" Brooke said as she finished her story.
"Wow" Arizona and Callie whispered in unison.
"How the hell did you get together after something like that?"
"Well that is a slightly more complicated and depressing story" Brooke said with a sad smile.
"Oh well ok how about something happier. Like what about you first kiss?" Arizona said once she noticed the shadows that seemed to appear in the eyes of the younger couple.
"We'll tell you ours if you tell us yours?" Brooke compromised.
"Deal" Callie said with a nod.
"Alright well our first kiss happened in high school…" Peyton began.
