Quote of the Day:

Dr. Wilson: Ask her out.
House: The bitch? She's a bitch.
Dr. Wilson: No, the one who's making you an idiot. It's the story of life: Boy meets girl. Boy gets stupid. Boy and girl live stupidly ever after.

Dr. Wilson: Where'd you get those keys?
House: Blue the janitor.
Dr. Wilson: What?
House: That's his name.
Dr. Wilson: His name is Lou.
House: I owe him an apology.

How Can You Be Sure?

"Come on I left my fiancée this morning for you, at least tell me why?" Brooke said with a pout. They were on their way to Peyton's and Haley hadn't said a word. Brooke kept on insisting that Haley tell her but Haley wasn't talking.

"I'm not telling you anything," Haley said.

"And you call yourself my bestfriend," Brooke said shaking her head.

"Who said you were my bestfriend?" Haley said with a smile. Brooke looked over to her with her serious Brooke Davis look but it wasn't working on Haley. No she knew better, after all these years Haley knew Brooke all too well.

Brooke couldn't take it anymore, she just had to know. "So was he good?" Wiggling her eyebrows as they stopped at a red light.

"Tigger," Haley said slapping her arm.

"Was he?" Brooke asked again.

Shaking her head at how blunt Brooke could be. "We are not talking about this." Leave it to Brooke to make her feel uncomfortable.

"Come on were girls we talk about this stuff," Brooke said as they pulled up to Peyton's.

"Sorry Tigger," Haley said smiling. "But I'm not talking."

"I'll just take that as he was very good," Brooke said smirking. "He certainly looks like he is."

"Tigger," Haley yelled as they made it to the door.

Laughing as Haley slapped her on the arm again. "Don't worry my lips are sealed."

"Thank you," Haley said as they walked inside.

Peyton looked up only to find her two best friends walking into her house. "Thank god," Peyton said rushing and hugging Haley.

"Were the hell have you been?" Rachel said walking into the living room. All eyes were on Haley.

"She was with me," Brooke said. "Gosh what's the problem?"

"We were worried sick when she didn't come back last night," Peyton said as they all took a seat.

"Sorry," Haley said.

"Please don't leave me with her again," Peyton said looking at Rachel.

"Haha slut," Rachel said flipping threw a magazine. "Did she tell you guys the good news?"

"No," Brooke said suddenly intrigued. "Tell us what, tell us what?"

"Yeah tell us what?" Haley asked.

"Chris and Jake are going to perform tonight at Tric," Peyton said. "Once a month we have this open mic night called House of Freaks and they agreed to play."

"That's great P. Sawyer," Haley said smiling.

"Something's different about you," Peyton said observing her friend.

"Is not," Haley said.

"Yep," Rachel said. "The only question is what?"

"Guys I don't know what you are talking about," Brooke said trying to get the attention off of Haley.

"Thank you Tigger," Haley said grateful.

"Can we please continue to plan my wedding," Brooke said.

"She's back," Rachel said.

They sat there for hours listening to Brooke rant and rave. From the flowers to the place settings, to the colors, and the food Haley thought she might lose her mind. Currently they were all flipping through the wine glass selections. Yeah that's right Brooke had like four different books on freaking glasses. Haley felt her cell phone vibrating in her pocket. Pulling it out she noticed that she had a text message.

Reading it brought a smile to her face. "I can't stop thinking about you!" It was from Nathan and her heart was beating a mile a minute.

"I miss you too," is what she wrote back making sure that none of the other girls were looking at her.

Holding onto the phone she waited for him to message back. "I have to see you now!" Smiling she wrote back. "I'm at Peyton's."

"Meet me in her backyard in ten minutes."

"I'll be there!"

"Haley what are you doing?" Rachel asked.

"Nothing just checking the time," Haley lied.

"Found them," Brooke shouted holding up the book.

"Thank god," Peyton said threw her book to the side.

"Aren't they just beautiful," Brooke said looking at the picture.

"Yes and so were the floors and the colors and slash my wrist if I have to deal with any more of this today," Haley said catching her breath.

"You are like the worst maid of honor ever," Rachel said laughing. "You should have picked me."

"I'm sure she didn't want any sluts," Peyton said laughing.

"P. Sawyer," Haley said laughing. "That was a good one." Looking at the time she saw that it was time for her to go meet Nathan. "I'll be right back."

"Alright," the girls said as she walked out of the room to the backyard. She used to love sleeping over when they were younger. Peyton's house was so huge for just her and her dad. She remembered Peyton, Lucas, and her playing hide and go seek once or twice. Larry would always yell for them to stop running making them all laugh.

Walking into the backyard she waited for him to show up. Hopefully none of the girls would come looking for her. The wind picked up as the sun beamed from the sky. Looking up she noticed just what a beautiful day it was and what a waste it was standing inside with the Nazi wedding planner.

Hearing footsteps approaching, she looked and noticed it was Nathan. "Hey you," Nathan said as his arms wrapped around her waist.

"Hey ya back," Haley said holding onto him tightly. Pulling his head off of her shoulder he brought his lips to hers in a soaring kiss. Her hands went around his neck pulling him further into her as his tongue went into her mouth exploring. Pulling away minutes later they both searched for air.

"Wow….that was….wow," Nathan said laughing slightly.

"What happened to work?" Haley asked with a smile.

"Ran off," Nathan said kissing her forehead. "I should probably get back; Tim really doesn't know what he's doing."

"Well if you left him in charge then you should get going," Haley said kissing him again.

"So Lucas tells me that we are having dinner here before we go to Tric tonight," Nathan said before kissing her again.

"That's what I hear," Haley said against his lips. "You should really go." Running her fingers threw his hair as he kissed her harder.

"Yeah I should," He said against her lips. His hands went down to her waist pulling her more into him. "Alright I'm going." Breaking away from her, he picked up her hand and left a soft lingering kiss on her finger tips. "I'll see you tonight."

Nodding her head she watched him walk off. Placing a hand over her mouth she could still feel his lips on hers. Closing her eyes and taking everything in, she went back inside the house.

"There you are," Peyton said as Haley walked into the room.

"Had to make a phone call," Haley lied.

"So let me get this straight," Rachel said. "You're cooking dinner?" Pointing her finger to Peyton and making a disgusted face.

"Yep," Peyton said with a smile. "Don't worry I'll try not to poison your food."

"It never stops," Haley said shaking her head as the girls went to the usual bickering.

-xoxo-

"The food is going to be ready soon," Peyton whined.

"He'll be here any minute," Lucas said looking at the time. "So how did you guy's do today with the planning?"

"Great," Brooke said with a big smile plastered on her face.

"Speak for yourself," Rachel said.

"It couldn't have been that bad," Felix said laughing.

"Alright tomorrow you stay here and plan with her and I'll go shopping," Rachel said.

"No way Rach-ho," Brooke said.

"I'll be right back," Peyton said leaving the room and walking upstairs. Going into her room she waited.

"Boo," Jake said opening her door.

"Hey," Peyton said looking up at him.

"I snuck away to see you and all I get is a hey," Jake said sitting next to her. Reaching over and grabbing his face she brought her mouth to his and kissed him like there was no tomorrow.

"That better," Peyton asked with a smirk.

"Hell yeah," Jake said putting her hand in his. "Want to tell me what's wrong?"

"Just needed to get out of there," Peyton said. "I'm not used to so many people being around." Jake couldn't help but smile. Ever since he met Peyton Sawyer she was this way.

"Remember New York?" Jake asked with a smirk.

She smiled as she thought of her two week stay in the big apple. "How could I forget," Peyton said with a smile.

"You should never forget about falling in love with me," Jake said as she playfully hit him in the arm.

"I couldn't even if I tried," Peyton said kissing him.

"So tell me again why you don't want anyone finding out about us?" Jake asked. Ever since they got together she had been afraid of their friends finding out.

"Just please wait until after the wedding," Peyton said.

"The wedding is like four months away," Jake said. "It's really hard to act like I'm just your friend when all I want to do is make love to you all over this house."

"As tempting as that sounds, I just don't want Brooke to think that I'm trying to steal her thunder," Peyton said. "We been together for four months and no one has found out so I think that we are good."

"I think that you like sneaking around," Jake said with a slight chuckle.

"That too," Peyton said as they fell back onto the bed laughing.

-xoxo-

"He's not answering his phone," Lucas said hanging up his cell. "I'm just going to go to the store and get a few bottles of wine so we can eat."

"I'll go with," Felix said standing up.

"Me too," Chris said.

"Al right be right back," Lucas said kissing Brooke. "When Nathan get's here tell him I'm going to kick his ass."

"Got it babe," Brooke said. The three guys left leaving the three girls alone in the living room.

"I have to go to the restroom," Rachel said standing up.

"Tutor slut please," Brooke said whining again.

"You're not going to stop are you?" Haley said as Brooke rested her head on Haley's shoulder.

"Not a chance," Brooke said watching Haley cave. She knew how to push Haley's button's the right way ever since she met her. All she had to do was beg for a few hours and then wait for Haley to spill.

"I love him," Haley said softly.

Brooke's smile grew. "This is so great but I can't believe that you didn't tell me about him."

"Okay so now that you know," Haley said. "Ask him if he's in love with me and if he says no then we are going back to LA."

Brooke couldn't help but laugh. "You are a weird little lady."

"I'm going check on the food," Haley said leaving the living room. Brooke sat there waiting for anyone to return.

"Did you kill all of them?" Nathan asked taking a seat.

"Good you're here," Brooke said looking around. "We need to talk."

"Okay," Nathan said.

"This thing between you and Haley it's not just about sex right," Brooke said watching the door. "Because we both know she's not that kind of girl."

"Let me get this straight," Nathan said holding up his hand. "You want me to declare my feelings about her to you before I even tell her?"

"Exactly," Brooke said.

"If I wasn't clear about it before," Nathan said. "I'm crazy about her. My whole life everyone always worshipped me because I was so good at basketball. I was Nathan Scott basketball god, and then she walked into my life and she made me feel like Nathan. For the first time ever I was just Nathan."

"That's sweet," Brooke said.

"Brooke I know that you don't know me," Nathan said. "For a long time I was a bad guy. I mean I didn't care about anyone are anything else but basketball and myself. Haley and Lucas are the reason I became the person I am today. For a long time basketball defined who I was. It was my life and even though it isn't anymore, if it was I would give it up in a heartbeat just for one more night with her. That's got to mean something right?"

"I think it does," Brooke said smiling. They sat there in silence after that, blinded to the fact of the other person listening to their conversation in the next room.

AN: Pretty please review for me, they make me want to update faster.
