Chapter Eight-

It was that time of the season again where every cheerleader slash basketball player trained for. The Classics where teams fought for the bragging rights of the better team or the better squad. Brooke worked the girls day and night for this event. Couples bewared Brookes rath because she was in no mood for the spending time with my other half bull.

"You guys we have got to nail this routine" Brooke complained to her squad

"Brooke, we have been practicing this routine all day" Peyton said

"I'm sorry that we have to practice in order to win. Maybe we should just look ragged that way we can be the big joke at the classics" Brooke said

"Fine we will practice but only one more time" Haley said becoming very flustered

"I'm sorry, I didn't know you had inherited the captain position of this team" Brooke said

"Don't start with me Brooke because I will win" Haley said

"From the top" Brooke said

It was the day of the classics, emotions ran high as all schools were present at the one hotel in which they stayed at. Nathan and Lucas had once again shared the same hotel room as usual. Walking down the halls Nathan ran into Amanda, one of the girls on the squad.

"Hey Nathan" Amanda said so friendly

"Hey Amanda" Nathan said

"What are you doing up so late" Amanda asked

"I just came back from working out" Nathan said

"I can tell" Amanda said

"So you wonder the halls late at night" Nathan asked

"Not really. I just kind of was in the mood for a snack" Amanda said

"Uh, yeah. Do you mind if I join you, I'm kind of hungry" Nathan asked

"I have no problem with it but you might want to change" Amanda said

"Oh, yeah. Well I will meet you down there" Nathan said

"Sure" Amanda said before she left. As soon as Amanda was out the picture Haley came walking up to a surprised Nathan

"Conversating with the squad" Haley asked

"Don't you sound like Brooke Jr" Nathan said as he opened the door to his room

"Shut up. Since when do you talk to Amanda" Haley asked

"I've always talked to her" Nathan said "Where's your boyfriend" he asked

"Back home. Soccer doesn't have a classic" Haley said

"Oh, yeah. Flying solo this weekend then" Nathan laughed

"Where are you heading to" Haley asked

"I'm going out to eat with a friend" Nathan said

"Who" Haley asked

"Why does it matter" Nathan asked

"Maybe I can tag along" Haley asked

"No, not this trip" Nathan said as he put a fresh shirt on

"Your meeting Amanda, aren't you" Haley asked

"Maybe" Nathan said

"Do you like her" Haley asked

"I have no idea. See you later" Nathan said before he left

The cheerleaders had just given the best performance of the classics history. Winning first place the cheerleaders celebrated huggin loved ones who came to see them.

"Good job, out there" Joey said walking up behind Haley "Joey. What are you doing here" Haley asked surprised to see her boyfriend

"I had to come see you" Joey smiled

"I'm glad you did" Haley smiled as she hugged him. As she hugged him she got a glimpse of Nathan and Amanda together in a warm embrace that caught her eye.

"You guys did good out there" Nathan said

"Thanks" Amanda smiled

"Uh, I'm new at this but do you want to go out and grab something to eat" Nathan asked

"Why are you asking me out, Nathan Scott" Amanda asked

"Yeah, but you know your lucky" Nathan laughed

"How so" Amanda smiled

"You have been chosen to come with I, Nathan Scott, out in public" Nathan joked

"Then I would have to pass" Amanda said

"Why" Nathan asked

"Because I think I might want the great Nathan Scott in private rather than in public" Amanda smiled at him

"I think we can arrange that" Nathan smiled at her

"Lets head out of here" Joey said grabbing Haley's attention away from Nathan and Amanda who were leaving together

"Yeah, lets do that" Haley said

"All right" Joey said grabbing her hand so they could walk hand in hand
