A/N: So I've been really getting into this story, but I've had some difficulty figuring out the parent situation and all that. So here's a rundown of the families.
-Peyton Sawyer, and Haley Sawyer are sisters, their father (deceased) is Larry Sawyer. Their mother is Anna Sawyer.
-Lucas Scott, his mother is Karen Scott, father is Keith Scott. Uncle is Dan Scott who is married to Deb Scott. (Dan's gonna be nice in this fanfic). Nathan Scott is Lucas's cousin. He'll come into the story more in the next chapter.
I know it's kind of confusing, I didn't plan out the family situations very well but I think it turned out alright. Now on to chapter six!
Chapter Six: Unexpected Invitation
"Lucas." I giggled as he kissed my neck. "We're gonna be late." We were sitting in the school library, hidden in the deserted stacks. Our legs were tangled together, his fingertips lacing through mine.
"So?" he mumbled, sliding his mouth to mine. I couldn't help but kiss him back, releasing a gentle moan into his mouth. He grinned against my lips before pulling away. "Let's just leave...skip the rest of the day."
"I have two tests today, not happening." I replied with a smile. He nodded his head in understanding, his fingertips brushing against my arm.
"So, guess what I'm doing this weekend." he said mysteriously.
"Hmm...bringing me back to your place and making me dinner?" I teased with a playful grin.
"Maybe next weekend." he said with a chuckle. I smiled and nodded, satisfied.
"So, what are you doing this weekend?" I asked.
"We're having this big family get together at my uncle's house."
"That'll be fun, huh?" He shrugged his shoulders, looking into my eyes.
"It will be...if you come with me."
"Shouldn't you be bringing your girlfriend to the family gatherings?" I asked, a bit surprised.
"I should be bringing you." he replied quietly, stroking my hair lightly.
"Luke...I can't go. You know that." I said sighing softly.
"Why can't you?" he asked.
"What am I supposed to tell my mom, or Haley? Hell, what are you gonna tell Haley?" I questioned.
"You tell your mom and Haley you're going to spend the night out at a friends house. I tell Haley I'm going to a family get together. She asks to come, I'll say I'd rather go to this one on my own. You can go to Rachel's and I'll pick you up from there...just...say you'll come with me." he pleaded softly. I bit my lip, avoiding his gaze.
"I can't-"
"Say you'll come with me." he repeated, his fingertips pulling my gaze back to his. I opened my mouth to say no, but it was so hard to say no when I was looking into his gorgeous blue eyes.
"I...I'll come with you." I whispered. He smiled and kissed me excitedly.
"They're gonna love you. I know it."
"Luke...how many people are gonna be there??" I asked, nervously.
"Not too many." he said with a shrug. "You, me. My mom, my dad, my sister. My aunt and uncle. My grandparents, and my cousin." he said. I felt like I was about to faint.
"Oh god." I mumbled.
"What?" he asked confused.
"What if they all hate me?" I asked, looking at him. "And they know you're dating Haley right?"
"They won't hate you. Everyone's gonna love you, don't worry about that. And not exactly...I mean, my mom knows but she's not Haley's biggest fan." he said honestly. I couldn't help but smile softly. But then again, if she didn't like Haley, why would she like me?
"God...now I have to go shopping and get a nice outfit to wear. Oh my god...you should have given me more notice!" I exclaimed, looking over at him.
"I'm sorry Peyt. Next time, I promise I'll give you a whole week in advance to prepare."
"Oh next time?" I asked with a smile.
"Mhm...next time." he whispered, capturing my lips with his. I smirked softly, kissing him back, my hands resting on the back of his neck. I was really getting into it, and so was he. His hands had just slid down my back when I heard footsteps.
"Someone's coming!" I whispered, sliding off of his lap and slipping around the corner. I sat down on the floor, trying to be as quiet as possible.
"What are you doing back here?" I recognized that voice. It was Haley.
"Nothing...just relaxing before I decide to go to class."
"Luke, you're gonna be late. You can't miss class."
"I know, I know. I'm going. Thank you Hales." I peeked around the corner and watched as he kissed her cheek and left. I grinned to myself and pulled back, resting my back against one of the book shelves.
"I'll call you." I looked up when I heard a whisper and smiled at Lucas. I nodded my head, pressing my lips to his before he headed to class. I leaned back and smiled, so far happy with the way things were turning out. Then I remembered that I was going to see Lucas's family this weekend and I rushed off to class. I needed to talk to Rachel.
"Miss Sawyer, nice of you to finally join us." I smiled apologetically.
"I'm sorry. It won't happen again." I sat down next to Rachel, waiting for the teacher to start talking before I did. "We need to talk...I'm in a difficult situation."
"Oh my god you're pregnant?!" she exclaimed quietly. I sighed and rolled my eyes at her.
"No I'm not pregnant." I replied with a shake of my head. "It's worse..."
"Oh god...this oughta be good." Rachel said with a smirk. She loved gossip and drama, she literally came to school every day to find out every bit of information she could about everybody.
"I...I can't really tell you here. Want to skip out after this class?" I suggested, knowing she wouldn't pass up the chance to hear this. She nodded her head eagerly and I settled back in my seat. I hadn't told Rachel about me and Lucas, because I just wasn't sure I wanted anyone to know. But, now I needed her help. Sure, Rachel dressed like a slut more than 99.9 of the time, but she knew how to dress parental appropriate. The class dragged on. It seemed like an extra hour was added to the class. I was more than grateful when the bell rang. I stood up and felt Rachel pulling me out of the classroom.
"Come on. I need to know. You can drive...I had Justin bring me to school today." I almost had to run to keep up with Rachel's pace.
"Jesus christ slow down." I said, sighing when we got to the car, sliding into the driver's seat.
"What happened? Tell me!" I started the car and pulled out of the school parking lot.
"So...you know how Haley has that new boyfriend Lucas?" I glanced over at her as she nodded. "Well, we've kind of been sneaking around behind Haley's back..." I wasn't looking, but I could tell Rachel was stunned, I was willing to bet that her mouth just dropped open.
"Oh my god. I'm so proud of you!!" I raised an eyebrow and laughed softly. "No seriously! This is like, something I would do! But, you? Peyton Sawyer? You must really like this guy."
"Anyways, I need your help." I said, pulling onto the highway.
"To seduce him? Alright all you have to do is get a box of flavored-"
"Not to seduce him. I don't plan on sleeping with him anytime soon."
"Well, other than that I don't know much about relationships.."
"I need help picking out parent appropriate clothing. He's taking me to a family gathering thing this weekend."
"A family gathering? Jesus. And he's clearly really into you." I smiled softly, hoping she was right. I parked close to the mall, it was pretty empty since it was a Thursday afternoon.
"So we're going for appropriate, but something that'll make Lucas excited." I laughed softly and shrugged my shoulders.
"More or less, yeah." I said, deciding to be honest. Turning Lucas on wouldn't be too awful. Actually, it wouldn't be awful at all. Rachel climbed out of the car, sliding her arm through mine.
"Well let's get to shopping girly." I smirked and we walked into the mall, heading off to the nearest Victoria's Secret.
"I need clothing Rachel, not lingerie."
"I know...but lingerie is good for the soul, and it'll give you something to tease Lucas with." she said with a grin. I laughed and shook my head, Rachel would always be the same. We spent a good 25 minutes in that store, Rachel throwing lingerie in my direction. We went to the check out and walked out of the store.
"Alright, now can we please focus? I need something sexy but appropriate...oh god I'm never gonna find anything."
"Chill. We'll find something. I'm the clothes shopping genius...I could find you a sexy outfit at Appleseeds if I looked hard enough." I had faith in Rachel, so I nodded my head and let her lead the way... Shopping took forever. But it was successful. I ended up getting two pairs of shoes, a skirt, pair of pants, a couple tops, and the lingerie. I was so nervous about it all, but I knew I'd have Rachel to help me get ready and prepare. I just hoped that I could handle this, and that his family would like me.
A/N: So here's chapter six. Next chapter will be the family get together, and drama will ensue in chapter 8. Reviews are great!!
