"Betrayals from All Sides"
The episode at the mall with Nikki had been the last straw. Jake was thrilled Audrey had put her in her place, and grateful his daughter was ok, but the irresponsibility of Peyton was a disapointment.
She had called several times to apologize, and Jake finally gave in and invited her over. Audrey was still staying with Jake out of spite towards her father, so she was there when Peyton arrived.
"Come on in Peyton."
She said without emotion. She had no more hatred towards Peyton Sawyer, nor did she have welcoming love. It just wasn't enough to get Peyton worked up anymore.
Peyton walked in and sat down on the couch. Audrey sat in the armchair across from her as Jake walked in the room, holding Jenny. He handed her off to Audrey, as she nestled her comfortably in her arms.
"Jake, I am so, so sorry." Peyton began, her eyes filling with tears. Jake sighed and sat on the arm of the couch.
"I know Peyton. I'm not angry-just, confused." He looked from Peyton to Audrey.
"I think I need to get out." Audrey and Peyton both filled with disbelief.
"What?" They said in unison. He sighed again.
"Nikki's just going to slam us harder until she suceeds in hurting me. She can't find me, and she sure as hell can't find Jenny." Peyton and Audrey both held a concerned gaze. Jake got up and disapeared into the hallway, leaving the two blondes in lonely company.
The next day was a Monday. Peyton, Jake, and Audrey didn't mention anything about Jake and Jenny leaving, and they tried not to think about it.
There was a surprising difference in Peyton and Audrey's friendship though. They weren't the best of, but they tolerated each other, and could stand each other in such a way that several people were suspicious.
"Ok, I have it all figured out." Brooke said, coming up to Jake and the two girls. "You all spent the weekend having creepy threesomes."
Jake, Peyton and Audrey all laughed.
"Uh, no, we're just cool now." Audrey replied, giving a small smile to Peyton and Jake. Peyton shrugged, and Jake returned her smile by grabbing her hand and giving it a playful squeeze.
"Oh, I need to stop by Whitey's office." It feels weird calling him that. But what do I call him? "Who wants to come with?" Jake nodded as Peyton and Brooke walked off.
"So, what's your business with Coach?" Jake asked, shrugging his backpack onto his shoulder. "I mean, other than the fact your related to him." Audrey chuckled.
"Actually, that is the reason. I want him to know that I know, and I'm not upset or anything."
"Um, didn't you flip out on your Dad?" Jake asked. Audrey sighed.
"Yeah, I guess I should apologize. For walking out, and staying out the whole weekend," She playfully grabbed him around the waist and kissed him lightly on the nose. "screwing my boyfriend..."
"Yeah, that he might not be so forgiving." Jake laughed, as they walked towards the office.
Audrey knocked on the door.
"Hey Whitey, can I-" She was cut off by the attractive blonde sitting in the chair across from him. This woman turned around, and was an older mirror image of Audrey. Whitey sighed.
"Audrey. I want you to meet your mother."
