Peyton sits on her couch when she notices her Cell phone says you have 2 new messages. She picks it up and sees that she has one message from Brooke and one from Haley. She listens to Brooke's first. "Oh My God I am in Cleveland Ohio looking for Lucas and I ran into Nathan and Haley, apparently Lucas managed to get Nathan a tryout. Love you bye! Peyton stared at her phone Brooke in Cleveland? What the heck is that? She then listened to the message from Haley "Hey Peyton me and Nathan are in Ohio and were wondering if you would like to come to the Holiday Inn up here? Well it is not really a question as Lucas is borrowing his new friend's personal jet. His friend happens to be LeBron FREAKING James! Lucas is on the way there to pick you up in LeBron's private jet so be at the airport at 5:15" Peyton hung up the phone looking at the clock, she had 10 minutes to get ready and get to the airstrip here in Tree Hill.
Lucas is in the back of the jet as it is landing talking to former teammate and current Assistant Coach Ryan Manning. He had been a starting forward on the team until this last training camp when he went to block a LeBron James dunk and fell down and tore his ACL. He retired from basketball, but was immediately hired as a coach. He was hired so quickly due to the respect the team had for him and his amazing leadership ability. Lucas brought him along on this little trip saying to him that he needed the company. Ryan had a sinking suspicion that he was there for a much more interesting reason. The conversation had consisted of what was going on with the team and what Ryan thought his dream girl was like and if he would ever plan a comeback to the NBA. Ryan had a very simple answer to the comeback question, no. As to the perfect girl he had a very interesting answer. Funny, Smart, kind of a dark person to all, but those she lets have the privilege of understanding her world. She would be a deep person, but at the same time shallow. The whole time he is talking Lucas is thinking "Peyton would be perfect for him and him for her."
Peyton was standing just off to the side of the airstrip when the plane landed and Lucas stepped out looking around for her. She ran up to him to give him a hug and asked how he was doing. Once pleasantries between Lucas and Peyton were over they went inside the jet and Lucas introduced Peyton to Ryan. They immediately hit it off. They talked the whole way back to Cleveland. They started out Ryan asking Peyton all her favorite things and then it was Peyton's turn to ask Ryan his favorites he listed them off "Color: Black, Number: 33, Book: The Legend of Drizzt, Movie: American Wedding or SWAT. Finally Peyton turned to Lucas and asked, "How are you and Brooke doing?" Lucas replied " We aren't right now, when I went to pick up Nathan and Haley at the airport, Brooke was with them and I couldn't think of anything to say. She just went to the motel and checked into her room refusing to talk." Peyton just looked at Lucas as Ryan said "Ouch" They landed about twenty minutes later.
At the Holiday Inn
"Hey Lucas man I got an idea," Ryan said "If you want her to go out how bout we go to the Champion? I mean you could sing to her." He then turned to Nathan "Hey Nate you play guitar right?" Nathan nodded his head "Okay he is in. the three of us will each pick two songs each too sing to Brooke, Haley, and Peyton." They then shared the idea of singing to Peyton and Brooke with Haley. (Leaving out Nathan's plans.) Haley then talked Brooke and Peyton into going clubbing. The first club they went to was The Champion, where the Brooke Haley and Peyton were seated at the Table right in front of the stage. Brooke said, "Looks like we got lucky to get these seats." That is when the Club's proprietor Ray-Ray came up to the mike and said our opening band tonight will be singing a six song set. Ladies and Gentleman I present to you, in there first ever gig Lovestruck! Peyton and Brooke's mouth's dropped as Lucas, Nathan and Ryan made their way to the stage Lucas grabbed the bass guitar and Nathan an acoustic, while Ryan sat down at the drums. Lucas then said "We are the band Lovestruck and we will each sing two songs to the best ladies in our lives. First I will sing Ryan Cabrera's hit: On the way down to Brooke Davis.
Sick and tired of this World there is no more air trippin over myself going nowhere. Waiting suffocating no direction and I took a dive. And on the way Down I saw you and you saved me from myself and I won't forget the way you loved me. On the way Down I almost fell right through, but I held on to you. I've been wondering why its only me have you always been inside waiting to breathe.
When the first song was finished Brooke was crying. Next to the mike came Ryan he said "I will be singing to Peyton Sawyer" "Jungle Love" And then all three men stepped away from their instruments and came to the front of the stage.
Girl I want to know ya know ya Jungle Love... And then all three men broke into the dance routine from the original music video causing all three girls to start laughing. Nathan then grabbed the microphone as all three headed back to their instruments. The next two songs that are to be performed are when I'm Gone and Here without you by 3 Doors Down. One of my choosing and the other of my brother Lucas'. Both songs were performed to perfection. Nathan then performed The Way by Clay Aiken. Closing out the night was Ryan with Holidae Inn
Chilling out at the Holidae Inn I'll bring some of my peoples he paused pointing at Lucas and Nathan. You bring some of your friends. He gave a quick pointing to the three girls.
They finished their set and then went backstage. As they stepped backstage there stood Haley, Peyton and Brooke clapping. The first pair to speak was Nathan and Haley. "Now Mr. Scott when you told me to make sure Peyton and Brooke were here you never said anything about singing to me." Nathan with the ever-present Scott smirk said, "Did that bother you Mrs. Scott?" and in a barely audible whisper she said "No." Then came Peyton and Ryan "I knew at some point you would try to impress me, but I never expected this. I like." And finally Brooke and Lucas, but neither said anything; instead Brooke passionately kissed Lucas. When she was done all Lucas could say was "Wow!"
Ryan then said "Well there is a surprise for the three of you. Haley yours is in your hotel room. Brooke just stay with Lucas and you'll see. As for Miss Sawyer would you care to accompany me to the Java Sonata next door?" he offered extending his arm. She took his arm and said "I would Love too."
