Lucas found himself walking to riverside, his favorite hangout spot. He spotted Skills there and he had to tell somebody.

"Hey man, wasn't expectin you here" Skills said.

"Yeah, well let's just say I'm not expectin anything anymore."

"What's up?"

"Haley, man, she's going with that Nathan guy..." He let out a huff of disgust.

"You mean Scott?"

"Yeah, what other Nathan would it be?" Luke said sarcastically.

"Never would've thought that Haley would go for him. I mean she knows your history and all."

"Yeah well that's what I thought. Hey I'm gonna go, catch ya later."

Lucas walked home and found thirteen messages on his machine.

"Luke...Come on Luke pick up! Luke? Pick up... Ok well call me, we need to talk"

Bullshit! You don't need to go with that ass... God Hales I thought you were smarter than that! Luke shook his head. He continued rambling about Haley and how stupid she was. His thoughts were interrupted by the ringing of the phone, Oh great, exactly what I want... to talk to her...

He picked the phone up only to find it was his girlfriend, Brooke.

"Hey cheery" He answered.

"Hey broody!"

"What's up?"

"Oh nothing really, other than there's this really great party tonight. Wanna go?"

"WHOA! Brooke Davis is actually asking me on a date?!" he said joking.

"Ha Ha! Very funny, seriously though"

"Yeah I guess so, pick you up at seven?"

"Perfect! See you then...you won't be disappointed"

"I better not be! See ya! Love you!"

"Love you more"
