Chap 2
The game had been going on for almost two months now but Tim had yet to win a round. The game or challenge as Tim liked to refer to it was simple, Tim would choose some seemingly unattainable girl and set Nate the task of landing her. Thus far though none had proved a challenge and Tim was getting increasingly desperate to prove that somewhere out there was a girl who could resist Nathan Scott.
As he walked down the crowded corridor Tim ran a discerning eye over the varied females wondering if any of them possessed the strength to say no to Nathan Scott. Most of them were immediately dismissed as possibilities because he knew that all it would take would be one smile in their direction from Nathan and they would probably melt into a puddle at his feet. He felt his mood darken as he contemplated yet another defeat at the hands of his best friend. Then he saw the one thing that was guaranteed to cheer him up. Lucas Scott (AKA Pukass) was heading towards his locker, moving quickly Tim positioned himself nearby intent on witnessing the results of his and Nate's latest bout of mischief.
Tim watched as Lucas approached, a puzzled look crossing his face as he noticed his locker door was slightly ajar. Pulling the door open warily, Lucas wrinkled his nose in disgust as the smell overpowered him.
"Fuck" he muttered angrily under his breath glancing up and down the corridor to see if anyone had noticed his predicament. He failed to notice Tim standing behind him a smug grin plastered across his face.
"Hey Lucas" a cheerful voice greeted him, "how was….." Haley trailed off uncertainly as she caught a glimpse of the contents of his locker. "What on earth happened" she exclaimed her voice edged with disgust, "oh that smell is revolting" she complained covering her nose and mouth with one hand while placing her other hand on his shoulder in a comforting manner.
Lucas grimaced seemingly unable to tear his eyes away from the sight of his books covered in dog shit.
"Yeah well I'm guessing this is a present from my darling baby brother" the sarcasm in his voice obvious even to Tim who was not exactly renowned for his brains.
Haley visibly stiffened at the mention of Lucas' brother, her eyes flashing with anger.
"Of course" Haley fumed "this is just the sort of behaviour I would expect from that Jackass. I honestly don't know what anyone sees in that guy. As far as I can tell I don't think Nathan Scott has a single redeeming feature about him."
As Haley continued to rant Tim broke out into a huge grin. This is fucking perfect he thought to himself.
Haley suddenly glanced at her watch "Oh Lucas I'm sorry but I have to run, I've got a tutoring session in exactly two minutes. I'll talk to you later though ok and we'll figure out some way to destroy Nathan together" she promised as she grabbed him in a quick hug before disappearing down the hall.
As Lucas threw another appalled look at his locker, Tim felt a hand clamp down on his shoulder,
"What did I miss" Nathan's voice hissed excitedly, "did we make poor little Lukey cry".
"Nah Man" Tim replied "but somehow I don't think we'll be on his Christmas card list."
Nathan smirked he was certain that Lucas wouldn't last much longer on the team, there was no way he could continue to put up with the hazing that got dished out regularly and Nathan had no intention of stopping until he accomplished his objective and Lucas quit basketball.
"Now onto more important matters" said Tim "I've decided who your next challenge will be."
"Oh yeah" Nate responded and "who's the lucky girl going to be" his smirk once again coming into play as he pictured Tim's face when he announced his next victory.
"Haley James" Tim replied a smirk of his own forming as he replayed her earlier outburst in his head.
Nathan just stared at him blankly "Who"
