New chapter!!!!!!!!! Review!!!!!!!!
Chapter 3-
Haley was walking to her locker when she saw Chris standing there. She quickly turned around hoping he didn't see her.
"Haley, wait up!" Chris said running to her.
"Go away Chris."
"I need to talk to you."
"I'll give you two minutes," Haley said turning around.
"I came here for two reasons, to meet hot girls, and to ask you a very important question."
"What is the very important question?"
"There is a tour coming up…" Chris started.
"No, no, no."
"Haley, the only way that I'll be on that tour is if you're with me."
"Why?"
"They want us to do a set together."
"I'm not going. I have a baby and a husband that need me."
"Haley, if you do this for me I'll never bother you and your family again."
"How long is the tour?"
"Two months."
"I'll think about it."
"Yes! Thank you Haley James!"
"Scott!"
"Whatever!" Chris said walking away with an evil grin on his face.

"Peyton, are you ever going to talk to me again?" Brooke asked quietly.
"You are such a hypocrite. When I told you I still had feelings for Lucas, you shut me out completely. Now that I'm doing the same to you, you act like it's the wrong thing to do."
"I'm sorry for everything. But you know that Lucas would never leave you for me. He loves you with all his heart and I know you love him."
"How do you know that he loves me with all his heart? I asked him if he was still in love with you," Peyton said fighting back her tears. Why did the year always end like this?
"And I bet he said he didn't."
"He didn't respond! He just told me he loved me."
"I know he means it! Just 'cause he didn't respond doesn't mean he does."
"Brooke, wake up! He has never stopped loving you and you know it!"
"That's not true!"
"Just leave me alone," Peyton said slamming her locker shut and walking in the opposite direction.
"Peyton wait up!" Lucas called from behind Brooke.
"Lucas, will you stop! I'm not Brooke, I don't want you fighting for me, or fighting for us."
"I don't care because I'm going to. It doesn't matter what you say, I love you and I'm going to fight for us."

Brooke sat at her counter on her Mac notebook reading about some internship in New York when Lucas stormed into her apartment. Brooke jumped a little and then shifted uneasily in her chair. She had been thinking about what Peyton had said earlier about Lucas not responding to her love question.
"Can you believe her? She wants to break up! This is ridiculous," Lucas said pulling off his sweatshirt and throwing it on Brooke's couch.
"Lucas, this is what she wants."
"What do you mean?"
"She wants this attention from you."
"I think you're confusing her with you."
"Oh shut up!" Brooke said as they shared a laugh. He leaned on the other side of the counter opposite of Brooke. He smiled at her and she looked away shyly.
"Ok, so do you have the little speech?"
"Yea, you can steal from it if you want." Lucas took the paper and read it to himself.
"Brooke, who did you write this about?"
"It's not important. What's important is that you write something for Peyton."
"I think I'm going to just read her lyrics she told me that she couldn't live without."
"That's sweet."
"Ok, so what's going on with you?"
"Nothing really, I'm just helping you out."
"No Chris Keller?" Lucas said laughing.
"That's not even funny!" Brooke said holding back a laugh.
"I'm sorry, I couldn't resist."
"I haven't heard you say that in a long time," Brooke said smirking at him.
"Brooke, don't start," he said as they shared a laugh.
Brooke missed hanging out with him and never felt she could when he started going out with Peyton. She caught herself staring at him from time to time. She thought about what could have been if she didn't break up with him or if she really was pregnant around the time of Haley and Nathan's wedding, or if he didn't have the feelings she had for him for Peyton.
"That's the past," Brooke said finally getting up from her chair and walking toward Lucas. Lucas stood up straight when she got to him.
"What's the matter Brooke?" Brooke responded by puling him in for a hug. He hesitated at first but then held on to her tighter. Brooke felt eyes burning into her back. She quickly turned around and saw a curly blond looking through the window with tears in her eyes. Brooke quickly opened the door to go explain to her with Lucas following.
"Peyton!" Brooke yelled as Peyton walked away. Lucas stood back as he saw Brooke and Peyton walk away.
"You got to stop doing this Brooke," she said without turning around.
"You are crazy!" Peyton turned toward her and had fire in her eyes.
"I'm crazy? I can't stand you!"
"Then why are we friends?"
"We aren't Brooke. Get it?"
"I'm relieved. I have no strength to fight with you anymore," Brooke said turning toward her apartment.
"Brooke?" Peyton asked making her turn around. Brooke turned without saying anything, "I'm sorry it happened like this."
"It didn't have to." Peyton just nodded
"I'll see you around Peyton," Brooke said now continuing to her apartment. She had now completely lost her best friend and was still helping Lucas get her back so they could both be happy. How great? Brooke was helping them to be happy but she wasn't happy at all.
"Brooke what happened?" Lucas asked when she got back to her apartment.
"It's over."

"Nathan, we have to talk about something," Haley said joining him on the couch. She was finally going to talk to him about the tour and she was going to decide if she was going to go.
"What about?" Nathan asked still stuck on the basketball game on TV.
"Chris asked me something today…"
"Did he ask you to go on tour with him again?" Nathan joked laughing.
"Um…"
"He did?" Nathan asked turning toward her.
"Yea and I told him that we had a baby and now it was different but…"
"But what? What did you tell him Haley?"
"He said he wouldn't bother us again if I went."
"I could handle him. You don't have to go."
"I think I do Nate," Haley said looking toward the floor.
"I can't believe this!" Nathan stood up and walked into their room and slammed the door. Haley nodded and went to the closed door.
"Nathan, I know you're upset but I'm doing this for you and James," Haley said outside of the bedroom door. All she heard was silence.
