Nathan walked into the house and saw Haley walk down the stairs in boxers and a tank top. "Hi" she said as she walked into the kitchen, Nathan followed her.
"Hales we need to talk" Nathan said resting a hand on her shoulder
"I've tried that Nathan..." She started
"Hales I need you, I want you" He said using the same line he had used the day he had collapsed on the basket ball court. Haley turned around
"You know you cant go around changing your mind about stuff like this..." Haley said being cut off by Nathan again. Nathan kissed her. "Hales I love you so much!" Nathan said wrapping his arms around her
"I love you too" she smiled wrapping her arms around his neck. "I missed you Hales" Nathan said putting his finger under her chin and kissed her lips softly. Haley smiled
"Me too". She hugged Nathan resting her head on his chest.
Deb watched the two from the family room. She smiled to herself. "That's the way things should be" she thought to herself.

Lucas sat in his room reading Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck when Karen walked in "It's going to be quite around here with out Brooke around for the summer." She smiled softly.
"Sure, whatever" Lucas said pretending he was into his book
"Luke I know this is hard for you, but you know things will be ok" Karen said lying down beside her son "I know how you feel about Brooke, and I'm sure she feels the same!" Karen smiled. Lucas put his book down
"I'm not sure she does" Lucas said sitting up. "But it's ok I'm fine" Lucas said standing up "I'll be back later." He said walking out the door.
Peyton was still sitting in her room. She was now drawing a picture of Brooke, she was listening to Dashboard Confessional. Lucas walked in, Peyton didn't notice at first but she looked up and saw Lucas standing by the door
"Hey" he smiled
"Hey come on in!" Peyton said invitingly.
"Thanks Sawyer" Lucas said sitting down beside Peyton. "Brooke call?" He asked looking at Peyton's drawing
"Ya, she got there alright, she said she'd call again tomorrow, her parents were there and I guess they wanted to spend time with her." Peyton laughed. "
Now thats something you don't hear everyday" Lucas said smiling even more.
Peyton nodded "I know, it's a stretch even for her parents" Peyton said closing her sketch book "So what can I do you for?" She asked giggling
"I don't know I just needed someone to talk to." He said looking down.
"Brooke?" Peyton Questioned. "Yep" Lucas said still looking down. "Luke, she's scared that's all, just give her time!" Peyton said resting her hand on Lucas' shoulder. Lucas nodded "Hey, you wanna hang tomorrow?" Peyton asked.
"Sure, I mean I don't have anything better to do" He smiled looking up.
Peyton hit him with her sketch book "Uhh" she smiled.
"Peyton Sawyer, I'd love to hang out with you" he smiled.
"That's better" Peyton smiled standing up. She walked over to her record player and put on a Cheap Trick record. Peyton picked up her sketch book again and continued to draw "I'll pick you up tomorrow" Peyton smiled.
"Ok I'll see you then" Lucas smiled walking out of the room. Lucas went home, Karen asleep on the couch. He turned off the T.v and put a blanket over his mom and walked into his own room. He picked up his book and continued to read.

Brooke galloped down the stairs to see her parents walking through the front door. "Hey Brookie" her dad smiled hugging her
"Hey daddy, I love my room! Thank you so much" she smiled walking over to her mom "Hey" Brooke smiled hugging her mom
"Hey sweetie" Her mom said hugging her back
"We missed you" Brookes dad smiled.
"Well honey, we'd love to stay and chat, but we have a party to attend" Her mother said still smiling.
"But I just got in, cant your parties wait?" Brooke said as her smile faded
"We're sorry honey, but this can't wait!" her Dad said as her parents rushed out the door. Just as quickly as they had come, they were gone.
Brooke was left alone in the front hall. She sat down on a chair and thought about Lucas and Peyton, the two most important people in her world. She got up and went into the kitchen to get food. She popped some pop corn and went upstairs to watch a movie, all by herself.

Jake stopped at a hotel on his way to find Jenny. He couldn't concentrate anymore, he needed a goodnight sleep before he could continue his search. He slowly drifted off thinking about Peyton. He finally fell asleep, It was almost 10 by the time he had woken up the next morning. He rushed out of the hotel and hopped onto his motorcycle and continued his drive.
