Episode 2 Ch. 6- What I Want Is You

Peyton and Lucas are still in his office kissing when she finds the courage to pull away.

Peyton- Why did you kiss me?

Lucas- (He looks relieved) I wanted to see if it was still there. You know that undeniable chemistry that we have always had. It's still there and the truth is it will always be there between you and me, and you can never take that away from us.

Peyton- I'm not the one who took that away from us Lucas, YOU DID (She raises her voice)

Lucas- (He raises his but he is still sympathetic) Admit it Peyton, you still love me.

Peyton has tears in her eyes. She finally reaches into her purse and pulls out her engagement ring. She and Jake had agreed to keep it a secret until they told the kids, but she felt she owed Lucas the truth. She slipped it on her ring finger. Lucas' facial expression dropped because he realized exactly what was happening.

Lucas- (Hurt) You're getting married….to…to Jake

Peyton- Yes, he proposed and I said yes.

Lucas- You should have said no. I can't believe this. I wish you wouldn't have told me, at least not right after my mom's death.

Peyton- I had to tell you Lucas because I moved on and I'm not going to apologize for that.

Lucas- Just go Peyton….I want to be alone.

Peyton- if that is what you really want then I'll go

She grabs her stuff and begins to leave.

Lucas- (Before she reaches the door he finally speaks up) Just so you know (Peyton stops and turns around) that's not what I want. I've never wanted that Peyton. Can I tell you what I really want? (She nods) I want to wake up from this nightmare I'm in. I want my affair and my mistakes and our divorce and my mom and Haley's death to be part of some horrible dream and all I have to do is wake up. My wish is that nothing between us would have changed and you would still love me (He has tears in his eyes and she is trying to hold back her tears) I want you to need me and to love me again. That's what I want….I want you. I've always wanted you. And that will never change. It will always be you.

Lucas walks over towards her but Peyton pulls away. She is trying to hold back her tears and stay strong because all she really wants is to run into his arms but she couldn't. He had hurt her way too many time and the pain was still there. Finally after the silence she spoke up.

Peyton- I should go Jake's waiting….

As she walks away Lucas can't do anything but get angry. He wasn't exactly angry at Peyton but at himself. He swung his arm and knocked everything off his desk. He then picked up the picture of his 3 kids. He fell to the floor and finally just cried like a big baby. He needed to let everything he had been feeling out and at that moment he finally let his emotions take control.

Peyton got into her car and rested her head on the steering wheel.

Lucas' Voice- Although life goes on, the reality is the pain of our actions or our losses never really goes away. They are always with us. We all have different ways of handling that pain and coping with that reality.

Some of us keep it bottled in and build walls around us to keep the hurt out.

Lily is in her room. She hears someone knocking on the door. She goes half way and can see it is Chase. She turns back around and walks to her room. She then gets her phone and sends Bo a text message reading: Hey I got your text I can't wait to have some fun with you this weekend make sure your bring the beer I like to party. Chase finally gets the picture and he leaves.

Others move on and find love and hope elsewhere

Peyton is now at home and sees Jake playing with Savannah and hanging out with her kids.

Jake- Honey your finally home. (He gets up and gives her a kiss on the cheek.) We were just playing with Savannah's Ponies. Come on you can be the pink one. (She smiles and he leads her over to the couch where Savannah gives her mom a big hug)

Savannah- I'm so glad Jake is back I missed him.

Nathan, Emily, and the kids all walk inside of Nathan's house.

Jamie, Eligh, and Hunter take a sleeping Millie upstairs.

Emily- That was a fun night I should get going.

Nathan- It really was…. (Emily goes to leave and Nathan grabs her arm and pulls her into a kiss. She puts her arms around his neck and they continue to kiss. He closes the door with her still inside in his arms. She is smiling and so is he.)

A lot of us push people away and hide behind our fears.

Colin- Move in with me Brooke Please it will make everything better

Brooke- I can't Colin. I'm just not ready yet, but that doesn't mean I don't love you because I do….

Colin- One day Brooke Davis your gonna realize that I love you and I'm gonna be there for you no matter what….I'll wait till your ready because I could wait for you forever…. (He leans in and kisses her and then he leaves)

But most of us regret every mistake that we have ever made and we finally deal with the pain that has been eating us up for so long.

Lucas is still crying uncontrollably.

Brooke touches her stomach and has tears in her eyes.

Brooke- I can't tell him that I'm pregnant because he would hate me, and I would lose him forever.
