One week later…..
Brooke stood outside the charred ruins of Tree Hill High and struggled to remember her life as it had been before she'd been struck with amnesia, her past was one big blank. The guy standing at her right was hunched over in his broody stance that she'd gotten used to over the last week.
Lucas looked around at the ashes that remained of Tree Hill High and wondered how his life had changed so much in the last two weeks.
Nathan held Haley close to him with his left arm and looked at the two lone figures standing on his left. Brooke stood there all alone and yet was not alone at all. Lucas just looked lost.
He still couldn't believe that Peyton was gone, it seemed like only yesterday that she'd been ragging on him for something. It seemed impossible that she was gone.
In just one more week they would start high school at the private school of Manchester Prep. It would be so weird going to a different school. Manchester Prep didn't have a basketball team or cheerleaders, but they did have uniforms.
Nathan shuddered at the thought.
Haley tried to focus on the sight in front of her. No more tutoring center or stolen kisses in classrooms with Nathan. A lone tear pearled down her cheek, she tried to hold back her emotions, but she felt broken now that she had to go to some private school and wear a uniform.
She couldn't believe that Peyton was dead. It was too weird, like they were in an alternate reality. If only…..
Lucas dug his hands deeper in his pockets, widened his stance and narrowed his eyes as he pondered his new situation. Having to go to a private school was going to be weird enough, he still couldn't believe that Peyton was dead……….it seemed like she would come running around the corner and say something sarcastic to him. Him, her and Brooke had been a unit, but now with Peyton gone and Brooke having no memory, they were broken apart forever.
Nothing would ever be the same.
The End…………..unless you want me to continue with their adventures at Manchester Prep.
Let me know.
