As Lucas headed toward the river court he started thinking about how life was like this time last year. He thought about how Nathan and him hated each other and now they had a bond that was growing closer everyday. He thought about Peyton and Brooke and he how he didn't even really know them this time last year. He wanted things to be like they were before with Peyton, Brooke and himself. Before he even started dating Brooke. He wanted them to be friends again. He didn't see from where he stood now if that was ever going to be possible. Of course stranger things had happened. The only constant thing in his life since this time last year was the river court and his friends there who he was ashamed to say he didn't see as much as he used to. As he came closer to the court he found it empty. He had grabbed his basketball when he left the house and was looking forward to some practice in case any of the guys did show up. He stood at half court bouncing the ball for a few seconds before taking his shot and missing. He heard a voice from behind him telling him he needed to take his time. When he turned around Nathan was standing there with a grin on his face.
"Don't you remember what I told you before the playoff game last season?" Nathan asked
"Nope." Lucas laughs
"Waste of time if you can't score the shot."
"Well we all know how that turned out."
"Don't beat yourself up over it man. Trying to get some practice in?"
"Yea a little. I haven't really played since I left."
"Nobody plays in Charleston? I know they are not as big on basketball as Tree Hill, but still this is a national past time."
"Me and Charlie played a couple of times, but then we got preoccupied with other things."
"What about a little one on one? Nathan asked
"Bring it on little brother"
"How long are you gonna call me that?"
"The rest of our lives little brother. Let's play"
After 20 minutes of playing the score was tied at 19 and Nathan was about to make the winning shot when he asked Lucas if he was coming back to Tree Hill.
"If you make that shot, I'll tell you. If you don't, you will just have to wait till school starts." Lucas said
"I am going to make this shot just so you can tell me and I can tell Haley."
"Did she send you to find me and asked that question?" Lucas asked
"Yea, but her and I both want to know the answer." With that Nathan shot the ball and it went through the hoop.
"Nice shot." They heard from behind them and turned around to find Mouth, Skill, Fergie, Junk and Jimmy standing there.
"Hey Guys" Lucas said
"Luke, Good to have you back. When did you get back in town?" Skills asked
"Earlier today."
"It is good to have you back man." Fergie said
"Are you guys in the middle of a game?" Junk asked
"Nope that was the winning shot." Nathan said
"Let's play then. Jimmy has gotten pretty good since you left, Luke." Skills said.
"Let's see how good." Lucas said
"Welcome everyone to a rare occasion here at the river court. Tonight Lucas and Nathan Scott have joined us for a special 3 on 3-basketball game. It looks to be Lucas, Skills, and Fergie versus Nathan, Junk and Jimmy. This should be an interesting game folks" Mouth says from the bleachers to an audience starting to arrive.
"Alright you guys ready to play? I got Nathan." Lucas says to Skills and Fergie.
"Brotherly rivalry" Skills shakes his head as he laughs
"No just the fact that we are both worn out from just playing one on one and I am not sure I could take Junk or Jimmy just yet." Lucas admits
"Nathan, you get Lucas. Jimmy, you take Fergie and I will get skills." Junk said
"Alright guys! Break!"
"The teams look to be ready to play. Jimmy and Fergie will meet a center court to see who will get control of the ball." Mouth said
Twenty minutes later the game ends with a winning shot made by Lucas. He looks at Nathan and said "Not a waste of time"
Everyone starts to leave with plans to meet the next night and Lucas and Nathan are left at the court getting some last minute shots in before heading home themselves.
"I made the shot, but you never told me the answer" Nathan said
"Is it going to kill you not to know?" Lucas asked
"No, but Haley might." Lucas laughs "She has really missed you and I have too."
"I have missed you guys too and I am planning on coming back to Tree Hill. I just hope I get through this year without anymore Peyton/Brooke drama."
"I am not sure if that is possible."
"Yea me either. I guess I am going to have to take it one day at a time and maybe one day they will stop hating me."
"Brooke stopped hating Peyton."
"Yea I will just have to see what happens" Lucas said
"I am heading home. You coming over?" Nathan asked
"Not tonight. I will stop by tomorrow sometime."
"Ok see ya later"
Lucas headed back toward his mom's house a few minutes later thinking about what could be done to help the situation with Brooke and Peyton. When he reached the house he still didn't have an answer. It would have to wait for another day.
A/N Alright guys I need your opinion. Should I make it so that Brooke and Peyton hate Lucas or should I make them all friends again? I think I could write it either way. Let me know!
