A/N- I should have put this in the first chapter but I am a major Leyton fan and even though Lucas is "dead" in this story it will still have

Leyton references! Sorry for the inconvenience brucas and jeyton fans! But I would still like you guys to read my story but I wouldn't blame you if you didn't!

But there was one in particular the grave read…

Lucas Eugene Scott

Beloved son and brother

His only regret was not getting the love

of his life Peyton Sawyer

Peyton cried when she read that and then starts to speak to Lucas as if he is standing right in front of her, "I didn't know Luke; I swear I didn't know you should have told me God, I wish you would have told me! Maybe…..I don't know maybe if you had we wouldn't even be here right now maybe we'd be off somewhere together… happy! I don't know what to think…." Peyton's thoughts were interrupted when she heard a familiar voice behind her.

"OMG (stand for "oh my god" if u didn't know) Peyton is that you… I haven't seen you in forever; I see we had the same idea… (In a sad tone) yeah I come by to see Nathan everyday I just can't believe I lost my husband and my best friend both in a matter of two weeks! Even though it's been 3 years they still haven't found Nathan's body and I still hold the slightest bit of hope that he'll come walking through the door and that everything will be like it was and we will never have to speak of it again"

"I know what you mean, even though I witnessed his death I still keep hoping that one day he will just walk back into my life", then she got this real distance look in her eyes.

Flashback

"Lucas… you have to stop being so obsessed with Nathan's disappearance, just leave it to the police, they know how to do there job, just be patient" Peyton exclaimed to Lucas for the 10th time in a week!

"BE PATIENT! BE PATIENT! he's my brother Peyton, I can't just be patient it is up to me I have to find him, I won't rest until I find him since it's my fault he's missing in the first place!"

"How is it your fault he's missing?"

"Well… it turns out the man I was working for at the restaurant was a big part of a drug laundering ring… and one day I walked in on him but he didn't see me… or so I thought… so me being the nice guy I am figured the best thing to do would be to tell the police but, what I didn't know he had a security camera and saw that I knew so after the police put him in jail his brother paid me a visit and said that since I made his brother suffer he was going to make my brother suffer and then he showed me this video tape of Nathan saying "Lucas I know when you see this you will think it's all your fault but don't okay just go with your life cuz whatever they're going to do to me there gonna do it anyway so don't worry about it! They probably gonna try to come after you so watch your back". By now Lucas was in tears "but after he said that someone hit him across the head with a gun and he was knocked out, he was trapped and he didn't know what they were gonna do to him but he was still thinking about me which me it's my responsibility as his brother to find him!"

Peyton is also in tears and embraces him in a hug "OMG Lucas I didn't know I'm so sorry!"

"I don't want to put you in any danger but, I do need some help, I can't do it on my own!"

"Anything you need I will be here for you Lucas! I promise you, you can count on me!"

"Can you come over at 7:00 tonight there's something I need to show you!"

"Ok, see you then" Peyton left and went home, she was really nerves because she knew that Lucas wouldn't give Nathan up that easily and she knew it could end up getting him killed! She didn't know what she would do if Lucas was killed but that couldn't happen I mean this was Lucas Scott her Lucas Scott the boy whom she had fallen in love with the first day she meant him she just couldn't even think of the possibility that he would get killed. She thought about that all day long and then she took a nap and she got ready to leave. Her being the early bird that she was got to Lucas' apartment at 6:45 she figured he wouldn't mind but when she got there she wished she had been later than she was. When she got there Lucas' door was wide open. She said to herself "What did I tell him about this door it's gonna be the death of him", boy she didn't know how right she was. She went to Lucas' bedroom she heard 5 gun shots and then she saw Lucas on the ground and someone climbing out the window, she ran to Lucas' side and dialed 911.

"Peyton, this is it for me I'm not gonna make… there's just one thing I need for you to know I…. I Love You always have always will, and don't you ever forget that just promise me you will keep on living"

"How can I keep on with out you…? I love you to Lucas and I won't get over that not for days and not for weeks"

Flashback

"So Haley you probably know why I'm back"

"Yeah your probably back to try and figure out who killed Lucas I knew it would only be a matter of time before you came back"

"Yeah, plus you never know Nathan might not even be dead I know it's been 3 years but I mean come on it could happen"

"Well anyway lets not think about that right now lets just go get something to eat and spend time with each other because we haven't seen each other in a long time, who knows I might even help you solve a mystery"

Peyton laughs "Right"
