Pursuing dreams. It's magical; watching what you've always imagined in your head play out in front of your eyes lively, hear it's melody meeting your eardrum is a perfect harmonious symphony, living it and looking back to realize how far you have got and what you have been through and who were there for you during that journey is overwhelming. However, nothing could grant you a perfect life, not even pursuing and reaching your dreams.

It's been seven years. Seven years since they were fresh high school graduates and had their whole life ahead of them. Seven years since the whole separation series began. A lot happened during those seven years, they all fell apart each going his own way, sides were taken and accusations were made, friendships collapsed and others tightened, relationships destroyed paving the way for another to be born, and the kids grew to be young adults, however, the five former close group of friends now have reached a good point in their careers… and supposedly in their personal lives.

Fate has a strange way of playing people though, because after everything that has happened and when life is finally settling down and going one way, fate comes to turn the wheel into a whole other direction, none of them would have expected that a single movie would change the life of not one, not two and not even five but the lives of seven people, reconnecting, separating and introducing and causing tons of confusions.

But, mostly, finding themselves again.

They were all a close group of friends, they haven't always been, but as life turned out, they have merged together forming tight friendships attracting the odds, and for a while, they thought this was how it will stay, however though, as high-school came to an end, they fell apart, it was almost as if the girls took a side and the boys took the other, as trouble went down between the couples causing the friends to form opinions and take sides that eventually brought everyone apart.

Brooke and Peyton moved to LA together after spending the summer with Haley in Tree Hill where she was staying for college, it wasn't long though before each went their separate way chasing opportunities in their dream jobs, however, the three of them kept in tight touch together, and almost five years after graduation they reconnected again the three of them living in LA and closer than ever.

The two Scott brothers attended Duke together after the drama that finalized their senior year of school where they became roommates, and also, while being each other's best friend, they had to go different directions however meeting once again.

The thing is, despite the ups and the downs each of the five has threw himself in work resulting in success, and resulting also in strangely reuniting again.

Brooke Davis was the first to reach her big success as her clothes line just went viral in a beautiful eruption, 'clothes over bros' was created while she was a student in high school, but once graduated, she gave it all her time working her ass off until it became one of the fashion creators it is now.

Peyton Sawyer lost her way for a while working as an underrated assistant to the assistant in a music label, it wasn't until she called her best friend that she decided to quit and start over, and with Brooke's help, she had her own music label and now she's starting to be one of the well-known names in introducing new young talents to the music field as well as composing music.

Haley managed to find a balance between taking baby steps as a singer and do her job lovingly as a single-mother. She released a few songs as a teenager already, and then worked in low-key places as an entertaining singer to make money, but now Peyton signed her up in her label giving her the chance she surely deserves.

Lucas was supposed to become a published author, but instead, he found himself in screenwriting and surprisingly to even himself in songwriting, with his main focus being screenwriting though, he feels like he wants to explore songwriting more, however, it's the movie field that introduced him to his fiancée Lindsey, she's an actress and they fell in love almost right away.

Nathan has always been a basketball star, in high-school, in college, and it didn't take much time to get to the NPA, catching the eyes of millions as a promising player and an upcoming legend. He has consumed his time, thoughts and energy solely on basketball which is why he made it big. He also guest-starred in a few movies that wanted to benefit from his success.

Julian is a movie producer and he is passionate about his job, he likes making stories, and he has a mind of his own, he is not afraid to take risks as long as he believes the outcome will be magnificent, which is only all the time, he makes it happen one way or the other, he's a fighter and that's the reason of his success.

Julian had a story, a good one, the more he read the more he liked it and ached to be responsible in turning the papers into a live picture of voices and emotions. As he read, he just began imagining who'd fit in what job; he's already sat with the director, whom he chose knowing they would rarely disagree when it came to the final product, he's had a one-time experience in directing, but, he knew that this time it's not his shot, however, he was right, the director and him agreed on everything together.

It was a classic movie, 'L'amour rouge' they have decided to name it. The script was ready, it was co-written between two promising scriptwriters, and he loved it, he has heard of one of them long ago though; Lucas Scott. He knew him from his own ex-girlfriend, as he understands they used to be friends in high-school but weren't anymore, however, he understood what she said about him being talented, because he really was.

He didn't know if it was Lucas writing the script that reminded him of her or the fact that she has been achieving quick and well-deserved success lately, but Julian couldn't think of anyone better with music than Peyton Sawyer, and he knew she'll make significant pieces of music effects for this movie.

He couldn't just stop at that though, for some reason, he has suggested Lindsey Strauss, Lucas's fiancée for the leading actress and he couldn't just help but feel it's made for her.

Julian Baker only wanted his movie to be perfect, but he ended up collecting the old group of friends he has heard a lot about from Peyton at one point of his life one after the other, after having Lucas and Peyton who unknowingly to what's awaiting them brought in Haley too, he has thought Nathan Scott's look would fit a small role in the movie too, and with some help from his brother and soon to be sister in law, he's got him too.

Now, Brooke Davis was not his first option when it came to customs, in fact, he didn't have a first option yet, and it was more of a personal attraction at first, but then, when he really saw her work, he wanted no one but her.

Julian liked to make stories, but, he wasn't sure if he was only granting the perfection of 'L'amour rouge' or if he's making a whole other story but in real life by putting the fuel next to the fire… just to see if an explosion would take place!

So, after seven years, and with a twist of fate –in the personification of Julian- 'L'amour rouge' has come to change and strike their lives forever.


Hello guys, this is an idea I've had for a while, I just want to clarify what it is, this was only an introduction to avoid confusion.

They are three stories, and each story (representing each couple) will be long a one-shot, telling the whole story, quickly stating if there's a history and then how the movie comes to bring them together. With each on-shot focusing only on one story, there might be snippets of something happening with the others, after all, they are happening at the same time.

Each one-shot will be ranging between 18-25K words, do you have a problem with such length?

If you like the idea, please leave a comment, and I already have an order planned but which couple do you think will be up first? And what do you think happened between them all anyway?
