Settling in

Brooke had been staying with Nathan and Haley for a while now and had decided it was time to get her own place and move on with her life. Brooke had already put an offer on an apartment and she had gotten the apartment today.

"You know Brooke your really don't have to go" Haley assured her

"Yes I do Haley … I need to get settled down start my career and get my life back on track" Brooke said

"I know … I will miss you" Haley said

"Me too but I will be a couple of blocks down" Brooke said

"I know but I will still miss you" Haley said

"Ok I tell you what come by later and we will have lunch or something… I need to talk to you" Brooke said and winked.

About an hour later Brooke was organizing her clothes when Lucas had walked in.

"I heard this place was haunted" Lucas said as he walked in

"Oh well then what am I doing here Peyton should be here" Brooke said and smiled

"So settling in huh?" Lucas asked

"Umm yea I figured it was time to get back on track." Brooke said

"Oh … so how are you do you need any help?" Lucas asked

"Umm sure you can bring my couch in" Brooke said and smiled

"Ahh of course the heavy lifting" Lucas said and went out side to get the couch

"Alright broody lets see what you got," Brooke said as she watched him unload the truck.

Around lunchtime Haley decided to go over to Brookes place and see what it was she wanted to tell her.

"Well, well Brooke Davis and Lucas Scott… what would you be doing here Lucas" Haley asked

"Just helping Brooke unload her furniture," Lucas said

"Oh ok ...well you have to go now us girls have a few things to talk about" Haley said

"Ok well have fun you two" Lucas said and left

"Ok fill me in on the dirt" Haley said excited

"Ok well the other day I was at the mall looking for material for a dress and I saw Peyton and Brittany there and you will never guess who else!" Brooke said also excited

"Who?" Haley asked curiously

"Felix! … And they looked like one happy family... oh and did I mention Peyton was totally acting like she was hiding something" Brooke said.

"No way!" Haley said

"Yes way! … I take it Lucas doesn't know about them either huh?" Brooke asked

"No way Lucas would ever allow that!" Haley said

"I know its great right!" Brooke said and Haley laughed

Brooke walked into Peyton and Lucas' home she decided it was time to confront Peyton about Felix.

"Peyton!" she yelled out

"Brooke? What the hell are you doing here?" Peyton asked annoyed

"Well I decided it was finally time to find out what was going down at the mall the other day" Brooke said

"Its none of your business" Peyton said

"Yes but if your not hiding anything you should be perfectly fine with telling me" Brooke said

"Its nothing … he is Brittany's father and he deserves to be in her life … that it" Peyton said

"Really that's it? … It looked like more than that from what I saw you and Felix kept giving each other looks what was that about?" Brooke asked

"Brooke we are just friends don't you have some unpacking to do or something?" Peyton asked trying to get rid of her.

"Hey Peyton so you have any … oh shit … umm hi Brooke" Felix said coming out of the bathroom drying himself off with a towel from the shower he just took.

"Friends? Yeah friends with benefits!" Brooke said and laughed

"Brooke I am warning you now if you say anything to Lucas about Felix I will make your life hell" Peyton said angrily

"Oh I am shaking in my Jimmy Choo's … listen I have been threatened before and it doesn't scare me ok especially not ones from skinny blonde jobless hoes!" Brooke said and laughed as she walked out the door.

"Haley! Guess what!" she said as se walked into the naley house.

"What?" Haley asked

"Felix and Peyton are totally doing it!" Brooke said excited

"What? How do you know?" Haley asked

"I walked in and Felix was coming out of the shower!" Brooke said excited

"Wow that's … gross" Haley said with a disgusted face

"Yeah it kind of is" Brooke said

"So are you going to tell Lucas I mean this could bring you guys back together," Haley said

"Wow I didn't even think about that this whole torturing Peyton thing has been too much fun" Brooke said and they both laughed

"Well what are you going to do?" Haley asked

"I don't know I guess I am going to see if he is truly happy with her … I mean happier than he was with me of course … and if he is I'm going to stay out of it … If he isn't he is fair game" Brooke said

"How are you going to find out?" Haley asked

" I don't know hang out with him a little see how much he talks about her things like that," Brooke said

"Be careful Brooke don't blow your cover and start making out with him" Haley joked

"Hey if we start making out then I know he isn't happy" Brooke played along and the girl laughed.
