Tentative Title: From the Bar to the Bed and Beyond
Author: Moonlighter719 (aka Gaby of Everwood Scripts & Transcripts)
Pairing: Brooke/Peyton, third person POV
Inspired by: The loads of slashy subtext in "The Games That Play Us" (season 1 finale) for Brooke Davis and Peyton Sawyer (the winking at the game and Mouth saying "I gotta tell ya there's a lot of love in the air" right before cutting to B&P). Chapter 1 is mostly a reenactment of the last bar scene in the finale because I honestly didn't know how to start this fanfic. I figured I might as well start in "reality".
Rating: PG-13 (if you think it needs an R, lemme know by reviewing it. This is my first slashy fanfic despite loving all the subtext on the screen in various shows for last two years or so.) - anyway, there's some language, femslash (not really naughty but there is definitely an undercurrent that's more out in the open now), and that just might be it.
Disclaimer: Not my world. It belongs to people like the folks at Warner Bros. Television and that guy who created this show {I forget his name now - Sorry but I think the first name is Josh??). If I did own the show and the characters, then Nicki would have left town a long time ago (more like she never came in the first place) and Brooke and Peyton would be in bed together long before the finale.
Summary: Brooke reveals her true feelings towards Peyton and it leads to things you would never see on broadcast TV. At least on a show where they take themselves too seriously.

Again, note this is femslash. If you don't like the idea of girls with girls, then click on the button that will take you out of this fic 'cause you probably wouldn't like this one.

My thanks to Casandra on the Fan Forum for her continued encouragement for me to write this story.
CHAPTER 3 – The Car

Brooke and Peyton walk to the parking lot of the bar in silence. They get into Peyton's car. Brooke steals a glance at the girl she likes as she gets in the car and thinks, "Did I imagine it or was Peyton gonna kiss me before Sherry walked in? Damn Sherry if so. She always ruins the best moments."

Peyton interrupts Brooke's thoughts, "I lied. I have." She puts her hand on Brooke's leg.

Brooke snaps out of her personal thoughts. "You have a crush on a girl too? Oh, please say it's me."

"It is," and Peyton leans in again. This time, there is no Sherry. Or anyone else to interrupt them for that matter. And Peyton plants one on Brooke. Brooke deepens the kiss.

A car honks. The two girls leap apart. Peyton just accidentally hit her car horn. They laugh and then are about to go at it when Brooke says, "Shouldn't we be going somewhere?"

Peyton agrees, "Right. Let's go to my house." They straighten out. Peyton turns on her car and gets the car in gear. They leave the parking lot as Brooke is left, thinking "Why the hell did I say that? I just wanna be making out with my girl." Peyton drives along, paying close attention to the road. Uncomfortable silence all the way home.
