Chapter Two
Part One
"Peyton?" Brooke asked. "Are you drunk?"
"Brooke Davis," she said. She wasn't really standing still kind of twirling everywhere. "Gosh, it's been almost five years."
No one knew what to say. No one had been expecting this. "So, I see you and Lucas are tying the not," Peyton said. "Congrats," she said sarcastically.
"Peyton, are you ok?" Brooke asked. Even though she hadn't talked to Peyton since graduation she was still worried.
"Oh, everything is dandy," Peyton said. Right then she passed out. Everyone ran to her. Karen went and got a cold towel and put it on her forehead.
The next morning Peyton woke up and she didn't know where she was. She sat up kind of groggily and had the biggest headache she's ever had. Just then Brooke walked in the room. "You finally woke up."
"What? Where am I?" Peyton looked confused.
"Well, you're in Tree Hill in mine and Lucas's apartment. You kind of crashed our little celebration yesterday," Brooke answered.
"Oh, my gosh, did I really do that?" Peyton asked.
"Yes, but I took the day off work and we're going shopping like old times and you're going to tell me what's been going on in your life," Brooke said. She slapped Peyton's leg. "Come on lets get ready."
"But, I don't have anything to wear," Peyton said.
"You can borrow my clothes and buy some at the mall," Brooke said. "Come on it'll be fun!"
Peyton got up obediently and walked back into Brooke and Lucas's room. Brooke went into her closet and came out a second later with an outfit.
"Hopes it fits you I see you've gotten any skinner since graduation. Even though I didn't think that was possible," Brooke joked. Peyton looked down at the outfit and made a face.
"Come on it's the most emo thing I have," Brooke laughed.
"I guess it'll do," Peyton laughed back. They both got ready and head out to shop.
They drove to the mall and stopped at a pretzel place to eat a snack. Brooke got cinnamon and Peyton got regular. They went down and sat at a table.
"So, how has life been treating you?" Brooke asked.
"Uh, not so good actually. I haven't been good since graduation," Peyton answered. "I kind of took a wrong turn and that's why I came back. I need help and I knew you all would help me. But, as I approached I got more nervous so I kept drinking and I guess I got drunk. Brooke I have a problem. A drinking problem," Peyton started crying. "I need help, but I can't do it alone."
"You don't have to," Brooke answered. "I'm here for you." Brooke hugged Peyton. After they finished their pretzels Brooke told Peyton about the wedding and they went on a major shopping spree. It was just like old times.
