„Safe yet? " Brooke's voice came from behind the open door and Peyton looked up from her sketches. She was trying to ease her pain with a new "we are so over" art, but nowadays it just didn't seem to help anymore. Brooke was waving a white piece of clothes that symbolized a white flag.

"No moaning, no screaming at your best friend, because your boyfriend is a jerk?" Brooke asked to make sure and Peyton laughed.

"Was that a smile P. Sawyer?" Brooke wondered and her friend threw a pillow at her.

"I'm sorry…" the curly blonde said and felt a smile on her lips "I was a mess"

This was totally true. She felt like a mess lately and she was glad her best friend didn't take offence at her over reaction the other day at the game.

"Apology accepted" Brooke said while she posed for Peyton's web cam. She was swinging her hips from side to side slowly.

"Why? Because I love you" she smirked and bared her panties into the camera by lifting up her skirt.

"Brooke" Peyton let out shocked and the brunette laughed.

"That's what this things are for Peyton" she calmed her friend down and the blonde looked at the camera.

"Nathan could be watching" she mumbled and Brooke sighed.

"I doubt that" she smirked "I bet he is sleeping off his hangover. He must have got wasted to forget about the mistake he did yesterday" Brooke smiled and Peyton felt thankful that her friend tried to encourage her spirit. But Brooke's eyes wandered back to the camera and she grinned. She was actually pretty sure the dark-haired boy was watching.

"So you aren't in your cheer outfit as I see" Brooke looked Peyton down "change, hush hush" she commanded and Peyton got up.

"Fine" she mumbled and walked for her bathroom.

Brooke stayed in her friend's room and walked towards the web cam again. She leaned down against it and smiled before she pushed her chest up and started to unzip her jacket. Brooke knew how to make Nathan regret his moves yesterday. At least she hoped this was why she was taking her jacket off right now…


He was staring at the screen and couldn't believe what he saw. This wasn't why he ever turned Peyton's web cam on. He felt like a stalker because he used to channel in from time to time - actually to check out her new art or her favorite song. Lucas knew that the real reason was because he had a crush on her, but the other reasons sounded more normal to him. But now he was starring at Brooke's bra and he couldn't turn his eyes away.

"What are you doing there?" Haley asked as she walked in and Lucas closed the tab.

"Ehmm…. Nothing" he stuttered and Haley raised an eyebrow.

"We need you at work, perv" she said and threw him his apron "but please wash your hands first" she warned him and walked out. Lucas breathed out and wanted to make a snappy comment, but sadly he couldn't come up with anything. Of course he was needed at the café right NOW, he thought to himself and walked out of his room.


Nathan couldn't believe what Brooke was doing she went for the front of her bra as if to open it and smirked at the cam.

"You want it badly, don't you?" she asked into the camera and Nathan was sitting there and starring at her in shock. Never would he have expected that the teasing would start right now. She wasn't supposed to know he tuned in.

"Well tough" she said and zipped her top close again.

"See you at practice" Brooke laughed and turned the camera off.

Nathan was sitting there at his computer. Of course he turned it on, because he knew that Brooke would be at Peyton's house to pick the blonde up for practice. Still he didn't even think that Brooke would start the teasing all over again. He breathed out. He hated how he wanted to touch her body right now and that he would probably see her stretch before practice. His head wasn't as empty as he wanted it to be before practice. All the pressure was just exploding inside him.

"Owen, you want to hit some bars later?" Nathan asked as his friend walked out of the shower.

"I thought you would be all hung over" the older guy laughed and Nathan turned the pc off.

"Nah" he joined him "after my work out today I totally need some distraction"

"Well alright than, I ask if Brandon and Percy will come along and don't forget your fake ID" he grinned and Nathan smirked.

"It's always with me, man" he explained and showed into his pocket.

"You need me to drive you to practice or are you sober enough?" Owen wondered and Nathan smirked.

"I will do fine" he said and got up "so see you after practice"

"I pick you up at your house" Owen smiled and looked at his friend "any chance this party includes red-heads?" he wondered and Nathan chuckled.

"I see what I can do" he added before he walked out. Actually this was supposed to be a party where he tried to get some dimpled girls out of his head, and they were often the company of Owen's preferred red-heads. But then again Brooke was the one starting this all over again.


"So you are going in the cage of the lion?" Haley asked and Lucas rolled his eyes.

"Aren't you getting bored of those catching phrases?" he wondered and Haley shook her head.

"Never" she smiled and he breathed out as he noticed he was conquered.

"Don't give up" Karen smiled as she walked past him with two plates.

"Never planned to" he smiled at his mother who gave him a bright smile back. The talk they had encouraged him enough to get up and prepare for practice. Lucas knew he was facing the most horrible 2 hours he probably could ever imagine and still he was relieved. He knew his mother had his back and it was all he was chasing after since he joined the Ravens. He didn't really care if Nathan would accept him there nor if the guys would. He cared even less about Dan – because let's face it why would he search for this man's approval after he treated his mum this badly. He just wanted to play ball. This was what he had done in the past few years and this was what he had planned to do for the rest of his life. He screwed up one game and he wasn't going to do it again. He would work twice as hard as he did before. Whitey set his hopes in him and he wouldn't let the old man down ever again. Keith trusted enough in him as to go for Whitey and persuade him in choosing Lucas for the team.

"I think I am leaving than" Lucas smiled softly, though nervous and Haley waved him off.

"Don't forget movies later" she smiled and he chuckled.

"Never" he said and let the door fall close after him


Brooke walked through the corridor of the school with Peyton and listened to her friend's complains. She felt guilty about the evening she almost had with Nathan, but she just bit her lip. Peyton didn't have to know and she wouldn't tell her anyway. It would make Brooke look dumb, and make Peyton feel sad. Brooke didn't want to cause any of this. Though she smirked at the thought that Nathan was watching her today through Peyton's web cam. This tension between her and Nathan was just there and she would find a way to deal with it later. She was just playing around with fire, but she wasn't going to get it near enough to get burned. For now she would just agree to her friend's complains. Just as she was nodding once again while Peyton told her how horrible Nathan was when they were fighting and how he gave her the feeling that she didn't mean a thing to him, she spotted him wave at her as he turned left and was gone in the shadows of the corridor.

"I…" Brooke hesitated as she looked at Peyton again "I need to go to the bathroom, if you excuse me" she smirked and Peyton nodded.

"I go and start stretching already" the blonde mumbled and Brooke grinned before she walked away and also turned left. She found Nathan leaning against the wall and smile at her.

"I knew that you would find me" he leered at her and she laughed.

"Waving me here and then to pretend that you knew I would come" Brooke made her pouting face "how clever"

"Well, you started to play dirty Davis, so…" he liked his lower lip and walked towards her. His hands rested on each side of her hips and his head softly touched hers.

"So you were watching" she raised her eyebrow and he leaned in.

"Hell yes I was watching" he grinned and breathed against her skin "It was hard to look away" he whispered and his breathe was tickling her.

"Oh I bet that wasn't the only hard thing" Brooke breathed out and Nathan bit his lip again. They were moving closer together and they didn't even recognize it. Brooke knew that she started to tease him to gain control, but it felt like she was losing her self-control right there with him and she didn't want to. There were so many arguments against it – but they seem all to vanish as soon as his hands moved her closer…

Brooke put her head in the mold between his shoulder and his neck and smirked. She smelled his after shave and it was her favorite brand. She hated that he knew how much she liked that one. Actually Peyton gave him this one, but she was the one to pick it out. That's when she remembered at least one of the reasons to stay away from him.

"Don't ever play with fire Nathan, or you might get burned" she whispered "I am not your play doll Scott, I am good in this game and you know I could drive you insane, but I don't want you" she emphasized and her hands were traveling unconsciously towards his belt. Just as her face left its place she noticed a big grin on his lips.

"That's just what your mind want" he smirked and pressed himself against her until she let out a little moan. Her hands rested still on his jeans and she felt the cold of the wall.

"Or are you trying to get me naked for any other reason" Nathan grinned as Brooke noticed where her hands rested and pulled them away. Her mind was spinning. She was intoxicated by his smell and all the memories kept coming to her.

Brooke remembered the heat of the only night she had spent with Nathan and some part of her just wanted to rip his pants of along with hers, but she resisted. She needed to stay strong and to keep her head clear.

"Nathan" she moaned against his ear and she could feel him enjoy it "let go" she said in a normal voice and he took a step back surprised.

"I am not into games" she smirked and walked towards the corridor and looked back at him.

"Or maybe I just like to play with your head" she whispered and took a step back. She was walking away with such a straights against someone that she heard how the guy fell down and she was on the floor herself.

"Sorry" the guy mumbled and Brooke turned around to face him. She just ran into the other Scott.

"I am sorry" she whispered politely and he looked up at her, just to blush and to look away. This was an innocent gesture that made Brooke smile. She never had seen anyone to behave like that in front of her. Guys mostly thought she was hot, but they never blushed. They always wanted to get her, to chase after her, but they never had this innocent look in their eyes. Lucas could feel his cheeks become reddish and tried to calm down. Brooke didn't know that he had seen her half naked today on his computer, and still he couldn't face the girl without thinking about what he had seen today.

"So you are the new guy" Brooke raised her eyebrow and Lucas looked up at her.

"Ehm, Lucas" he stuttered and Brooke smiled.

"I know honey, everyone knows" she smirked and Lucas looked away.

"I am…" she started.

"Brooke" Lucas interrupted her but still took her hand to shake it softly and she grinned. His hands were unsteady and he was still reddish around the cheeks.

"Well you obviously have heard of me" she said and kicked her shoulder towards him.

Lucas got up and offered Brooke his hand to lift her up. She smiled and took the offer.

"So sorry I ran into you like this" she smirked "but now we at least had a chance to meet: the cheer captain and the new rising star of the Raven's team"

"I don't know about that" Lucas hesitated and Brooke looked back into the darkness where Nathan was still standing.

"You mind taking me" she asked in her sweet voice and Lucas almost suffocated on his own slobber. Brooke paused and looked into the darkness once again before she let the second part out "to the gym?" she asked.

Nathan's stomach twitched again and he hit his head softly against the wall. He knew she was just fucking with him and still he couldn't be calm about this.

"Not at all" Lucas said and Nathan mouthed the exact words after his half-brother while making a face. Brooke smiled politely and walked with the blonde towards the gym.

"Oh I bet he doesn't mind" Nathan breathed to himself.

He sure as hell needed distraction after that. Of course he was the one that kept dating Peyton after what happened and maybe this wasn't as good for his attend to hook up with Brooke, but she never mentioned what happened to him again and Peyton didn't know and he kind of felt guilty… Nathan breathed out once again and decided to make his way to the gym now as well. He needed some suicides before he would go nuts and kill his half brother.


"So what do you think about Lucas?" Brooke asked as they watched the basketball players run around the gym.

"The new guy?" P. Sawyer raised an eyebrow and Brooke nodded. They both looked at the young guy that was running in front of them.

"You are really thinking about hooking up with him?" Peyton laughed and Brooke smirked.

"Well all the other guys are boring" she rolled her eyes "or so last season"

Peyton coughed.

"Or taken" Brooke smiled and Peyton laughed a bit at her friends way of pronouncing it.

"Well so you really want to go after an innocent child?" Peyton asked and Brooke grinned.

"I bet he isn't quite as innocent as he seems" she whispered as he blushed once again when he saw the two girls talk. Lucas wasn't used to be starred at from cheerleaders and he never was expecting them to start any time soon. But there they were Peyton Sawyer and Brooke Davis, two of the hottest girls in school and he knew they were checking him out.

Nathan noticed this as well. He hated how Brooke eyed Lucas and he knew exactly what was on her mind right now. She would go and try to seduce his half-brother and it was so like her. She was teasing him and then walking after his teammates. Now it was even worse, it was his brother. They have seemed to have this game going for half a year now and never getting tired of it.

"So you can have him as your rebound guy, like for a weekend or something, after that he is fair game" Brooke smirked at Peyton.

"What?" the blonde acted surprised and her friend grinned.

"Oh gosh, I know how you are into Scott boys, so maybe you want to climb him before getting back to Nathan" Brooke teased and a memory of his lips on her neck came flashing to her.

"Shut up" Peyton laughed and threw a pom pom in Brooke's face.

"Whatever" Brooke laughed and threw one of them back at her.


He was just sitting in his car as he noticed some fabric on his shoulder, he turned around just to find the leopard printed bra, he just saw on his screen this very morning.

"Sorry" Brooke's husky voice came from the back seat.

"It was so crowded there and I wanted to change" she lied "and your car was the only one open" she stated. Lucas was trying to breathe evenly even though his pulse was banging at the thought of Brooke sitting naked in the backseat.

"Ehmm…no problem" he stuttered and she put her hand on his shoulder.

"No need to be nervous" she smiled "though I know I can have this effect sometimes" she smirked and a smile was on his lips. She was flirting with him. Brooke Davis was not only giving him attention, she was there in the back of his car half naked, and this was major flirting.

"I'm not….nervous" he lied and tried to act confident, but Brooke put her hand on his shoulder and he shuddered.

"Well that's good" her voice sounded like a moan.

Just as Lucas wanted to dare and turn around Whitey hammered on his window.

"Yes couch" Lucas said as he opened the window.

"I wanted to say it took you a lot of courage to come to practice today, and I am glad you did. Last game was just a mistake and I know you give your best for this not to happen again" Whitey said and Lucas nodded.

"Thanks, couch" he smiled and the old man was about to leave as he turned around with a sparkle in his eye and a smile on his face.

"By the way it might be of your interest, that you have a naked cheerleader on your backseat" he laughed and walked away. Brooke felt ashamed but not as much as Lucas, the guy was red in his face and unable to move.

"Well…I should go" Brooke smiled and walked out.

Lucas looked at the girl leaving from him mirror and noticed that her bra was still on his seat.


"Nice work, jerk" Brooke mumbled as she walked passed Nathan.

"Well if you can play dirty, I can make it at least harder for you to get dirty with him" Nathan smirked and Brooke turned around to face him.

"You think you can stop me?" she asked and he watched her curves that were now covered in a red top and some tight jeans.

"Hey man" Owen's voice was heard and Nathan looked away to meet his friend. Owen looked down at the brunette and hugged her.

"Hey Brooke" he smiled and she squeezed him.

"Hey Owen" she whispered and gave Nathan a daring look.

"So where is Rachel?" Owen wondered.

"She already drove home" Brooke explained and was still looking at Nathan. She wondered why he would even go to the troubles of running her flirt with Lucas.

"Well that's a shame" Owen said and she looked back at him "seems like it's just us guys"

"Yeah, let's go" Nathan smirked.
