Chapter 16

The girls sat in Luke's room and watched tv while they waited on the guys. "So what do you think they are doing down there."

"Well apparently Karen isn't here cause I don't hear her downstairs."

"Oh she had a date tonight with some old friend from school. So she isn't here. It was so cute to see her excited about dating, but Keith is upset cause he cares about her so much."

Brooke just looked at Haley confused, "I thought Karen was dating Keith?"

"Well they are close but Keith proposed and Karen freaked out and now she is dating so she can convince herself that she doesn't want to get married. I know it is messed up, but they will end up together in the end."

Meanwhile down in the café

The tables were lit with candles and at each small table there was a dozen rozes for each girl. The lights were dimmed and the meal was finished. They laid the salads on the table and poured the wine and once everything was finished they headed up to get the girls each with another dozen roses for the girls.

The girls were startled when the guys knocked on the door. "Come on. How weird is it that I am giving my boyfriend permission to enter his own room."

The guys handed the girls the roses and led them down to the café. "So what exactly are the plans for tonight" Haley asked Lucas as he led her into the diner.

The girls gasped at the site in front of them. It was beautiful. "So this is why you didn't have time for us today at school. "Well we wanted it to be perfect." Brooke leaned over and kissed on the cheek. The guys lead the girls to their table and pulled their chair out for them. The girls put their roses in the extra vase on the table.

"Ladies we hope that our cooking doesn't kill you but we tried our best. Let's eat our salads and then we will bring out the main course." After the salads they combined the tables so they could all eat together as a group. The guys jumped up and took the plates to the kitchen and brought out the steak, potatoes, corn on the cob, and rolls to the table. "Well I do have to say that I impressed at you guys. This is to much. I must say that I feel a little under dressed."

"Well the night is young it will all make sense later." The rest of the meal went rather well. At surprisingly enough the meal had been delicious. "Are you ready for dessert?"

"There is no way I can eat another bite." Brooke gave Nathan an apologetic smile there was just no way she could eat anymore.

"Well let's save it for after our next outing. Let us get this picked up and we will be on our way. "

"Here let us help you."

"No we have it all under control just sit here and enjoy yourselves." After about 20 minutes they were headed to the courts to play basketball.

"Boys vs. Girls, what do you say are you up for it."

Haley just glared at Lucas, "That isn't fair you will kill us."

"Well our baskets will count for 1 point and 2 for 3 point shots."

"Still no way we will win. We get a 10 point lead and ball first."

And the four friends started a hilarious game of basketball. It was apparent that Brooke had never played before she just would shot as soon as she got the ball and it would get no where close to going in. The boys had tied it up 20 to 20 and the girls had claimed that next shot wins. Brooke passed it to Haley who was waiting under the basket and she shot just as Lucas was trying to block it. The ball went in and the girls gloating all night long.

"If that is any sign of tomorrow's game. I think that you three need to head back there and practice."

Nathan just smirked at Brooke, "We were a little distracted by our gorgeous competition. See we can concentrate in the games cause we don't have 3 flirts keeping our minds elsewhere."

They headed back to the café to pick up the movie and dessert and headed to Nathan's to watch the movies. The girls insisted on making the brownie sundaes while the guys got the movie ready. "Come on girls the movie is getting ready to start." Nathan had grabbed enough pillows and blankets for them all to use and each couple grabbed a couch. "You girls can crash here if you want."

"What movie are we watching?"

Lucas answered quickly while hiding behind his pillow, "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre."

"Lucas Scott you know that I hate horror movies. Well it is settled there is no way I am leaving. Luke here will be up all night because I will be terrified."

The girls all called home and claimed to be staying at eachother's house so they could stay at Nathan's. They curled up close to their dates and watched the movie.
