Again I'm gonna start off by thanking the people that reviewed. Bugbabe24 thank you, that was a huge compliment. Randomalien13 thank, I'm glad you like it. Finally heartsmash thank you again and yeah that might be kinda cool to co write a fic but only after I get this one finished.

Just letting you know there is a twist coming and some of you may not like it but I can't determine what you like and you don't. Sorry in advance.

Summary: Peyton was the only person that was suspended however the rest of them never made it in to school that day.

B: I don't know what to say other than I'm sorry. I'm not letting my heart go back there.

L: Brooke you didn't let me finish. I love you, I do….

B: Lucas…

L: …..but as a friend.

B: So you weren't coming here to tell me that you wanted me back?

L: No, I'm sorry about the confusion. I kinda need to talk to you about something though and I don't know if you're going to like it.

Brooke sat in silence for a minute or two, trying to comprehend what was going on and eventually it clicked.

"Peyton?" she asked inquisitively. Lucas turned his back to the brunette for a couple of seconds before turning to face her again, he didn't want to look into those hazel eyes and see the pain he may or may not be about to inflict but he knew he had to. "Yeah. I've tried to hide it, I've tried to deny it, and I've tried to fight it but no more, I can't do it. I'm sorry Brooke but I can't stop thinking about her, I may be young but my heart knows what it wants" he uttered trying to keep eye contact the best he could. Lucas watched as a single tear slipped onto Brooke's cheek, he stood motionless awaiting the end of the silence.

"Brooke?" still looking for some reaction and he was relieved when she spoke "Why are you telling me this Lucas?" "I'm going to tell her, I just needed you to know first" he replied before quickly speaking again "Brooke I know we hurt you pretty bad, I don't want to sneak around or hide this time. I'm telling you first because I think it's the right thing to do. I can't help it Brooke, Peyton has my heart and I need her to know that. Are you gonna be okay with this?"

Brooke tried to take all the information in, while continuing to look everywhere but directly at Lucas. From her head hung low she managed to get the words "Honestly? No but……I can try. Lucas you two hurt me more than you will ever know, but I guess I always knew that it was Peyton and as much as it pains me, I'm glad you came to tell me." Brooke's comment caused Lucas to develop a slight smile. She got to her feet and made her way toward the shaven headed blonde, she put her arms around him and pulled him into a hug. Lucas returned the gesture by placing his arms around her and giving her a tight squeeze.

B: Thanks Luke.

L: For what?

B: Talking to me first.

L: Thank you for listening.

The blonde broke off the hug giving Brooke a smile as he turned to walk out her door. "Hey Broody?" Lucas turned to face the brunette again. "Yeah?" he answered. "If you hurt P.Sawyer, I'm gonna have to kill ya" she finished the sentence with a small laugh, this causing Lucas to chuckle. Lucas knew at the back of his mind that Brooke would find the idea of the two people that betrayed her being together hard, however he hoped she could put it in the past. He closed the door behind him as he exited her bedroom, "That was the easy part, no turning back now" he thought to himself.

Haley was lying on the sofa asleep. Nathan was glad his wife had stayed with him, his life would not have been the same if Haley left him. He watched her sleep, making his way from her feet to her chest watching her inhale and exhale. His eyes finally focused on her face. "God she's beautiful. What did I ever do to deserve you. You drive me crazy but I can't help loving you." He thought to himself. Nathan rose to his feet before bending down to kiss his wife on the forehead, he turned to go to the bathroom but was halted when he felt a hand slip into his entwining their fingers together. Nathan turned to find his wife staring up at him. "Hey you, sorry I didn't mean to wake you" he said as he pressed his lips against hers. "Well I could think of worse ways to wake up."

N: Hales?

H: Yeah Nate?

N: Did you think about going with him? Honestly?

H: Nathan please.

N: Hales I just want to know.

H: Honestly……yes but I swear to you Nathan when I realised that above everything you were there for me always it made up my mind. I was never attracted to him, I was being selfish. The only reason I ever considered leaving was opportunity to follow my dreams through.

N: Positive?

Nathan was now smirking at his wife.

H: Yeah. Well I mean you don't pursue your dream but you get to live reality. I'd say I made the right choice, don't you?

Nathan kissed Haley again, this time more passionately.

H: That's a yes.

N: Ruining the moment Hales. He said frustrated by his wife's decision to break the kiss.

"You know? We could always go to bed" Haley said hinting to her husband. "Hales, you only woke up?" Nathan replied. She hit her husband of the chest before responding "Who said anything about sleeping?" She took his hand in hers and started to lead him towards their bedroom. Unfortunately for the couple there were interrupted as their apartment door flung open. "Tim is in the house!" "Just say you're here Tim!" Nathan replied to his friend. "Come on Nate how about a little one on one?" He looked at Nate trying to put on his best sad face with bad result because he ended up laughing.

Nathan looked down at Haley pleading with her not to kill him "Hales do you mind?" She looked at Tim pretending to be angry causing him to turn away as soon as she made eye contact. "Yeah I suppose I could spare you for an hour or two" she said before kissing her husband and walking into the bedroom. Nathan grabbed his stuff and followed Tim out the door but not before shouting back to his wife "Bye Hales." "Yeah Bye Sweetheart" Tim chipped in. "Dude your dead!" Nathan replied chasing him out the door.

Peyton and Jake were now back in the Sawyer residence.

J: So we gonna talk about why you snapped back at the café.

P: I don't want to go over it Jake.

J: Why do you keep everything in?

Peyton was beginning to become frustrated at Jake's questions now.

J: Will you just tell me what's wrong?

P: NO JAKE! I DON'T WANT TO TALK ABOUT IT!

J: Peyton calm down please.

P: I think you better leave.

J: Peyton…..

P: Jake please. Just go.

J: Peyt….

P: JAKE JUST LEAVE!

Sensing that he had clearly annoyed Peyton, Jake turned and made his way to the door. Just before he closed the door he turned to Peyton and stared at her, watching the tears slip onto her pale cheeks. "I'm sorry" he said before closing the door behind him. "Why does life have to be this hard" she thought to herself. Peyton dropped to her knees and backed into the corner of the room, the tears continued to fall. The craving was beginning to become unbearable, although she had only taken it once, she was tempted time and time again. It was a pain release, she was too young to have this much tragedy in her life, "Why can't something work out for me for a change" she thought. Peyton picked herself up and made her way to her room before climbing onto her bed and burying her face into her pillow, the tears still flowing freely.

"I want to feel good again" was the last thought she remembered as drifted off to sleep into to dream about the last time she was truly happy.
