Sparky176: I know! Estes is the best! It's like and hour away from my house, thank God!

HaleynNathan: Thanks! I know but they make the stories interesting, Lol. Your email doesn't show up on my reviews! Sorry!

1ThNalEy23: Ya, emails have been having problems. I'll find away to get spoilers to you.

The next morning, the group was waiting for Brooke and Lucas outside his house. They had planned to drive to Colorado from North Carolina instead of flying for fear of being seen by someone who would go tell Nikki. Airports were too unsafe for undercover flying. Driving across the country would be much more fun, anyway.

"Brooke we're leaving with out you!" Peyton called before honking the horn three more times. Brooke appeared in the doorway looking flustered and out of breath.

"No you won't. I know it and so do you, I just have a few more things to pack." She called back.

"Why didn't you pack last night?" Peyton got out of the car and ran into the house.

"We didn't have very much time yesterday." Brooke smiled devilishly before getting Lucas to drag her Louis Vuitton rolling suitcase out the door.

"Finally." Peyton rolled her eyes and hopped back in Jake's car.

"Peyt, what are you doing?" Brooke asked coming up to the car door.

"Going to Colorado, you coming?" Peyton laughed.

"No, you're coming with me and Hales in my car. Girls and guys separated." Brooke rejected. She opened the door and pulled Peyton out. She sighed, leaned in and gave Jake a kiss and then followed Brooke over to her car.

THREE HOURS LATER

"So, I'm thinking we should take a rest. There's a gas station right up the road." Haley suggested. They were right in front of the guys so they signaled to take the first right and pulled into the parking lot of the station.

"Finally! Broody get over here," Brooke jumped out of the car and sped over to Lucas.

"I missed you to, Brooke." Lucas kissed her and picked her up, setting her on the seat through the open door. Nathan rolled his eyes and went over to Haley.

"Hey baby, I missed you." He whispered into her ear. Haley spun around, threw her arms around Nathan's neck and pulled him into a deep kiss.

"Sorry to interrupt, but are you going to get gas or just stand there and take up the space for my real customers. Haley reluctantly pulled away, not loosening her grip on Nathan's neck, and turned to look at the fat old man talking to them.

"Oh, sorry, we're almost done." Haley said.

"We are?" Nathan asked surprised. Haley shrugged, winked and walked suggestively into the gas station to get food. Nathan asked Peyton and Jake to take care of the gas and practically ran after Haley. An hour later, Peyton and Jake were making out in Jake's car and Brooke and Lucas were in Brooke's.

"Did they die in there or something?" Brooke asked catching the attention of the close to sleeping Lucas.

"Who?" Lucas asked sitting up.

"Haley and Nathan. We've been waiting here for like an hour." Brooke stated. She jumped out of the car and walked over to Peyton.

"Excuse me, sorry, but shouldn't we get going?" Brooke interrupted what was starting to turn into a heated make out session.

"Oh, yeah. Go get them." Peyton replied barely stopping with Jake.

"I'm not walking in on them!" Brooke protested.

"Neither are we!" Peyton countered.

"Fine, we'll just have to wait it out." Brooke walked back to Lucas. Another hour later, Nathan and Haley walked out hand in hand with two bags of food.

"Took you long enough!" Peyton joked. Haley kissed Nathan goodbye and walked over to them.

"What do you mean?" she asked innocently.

"Oh don't play dumb. You guys were in there for two hours! We all know you weren't just shopping for food." Brooke said.

"Fine, let's just go." Haley hopped in the car and they sped off with the guys at their heals.

When they arrived into the town of Estes Park, Colorado, a day later, they all smelled so bad they had to roll down the windows instead of have the air conditioning on.

"We have to find the hotel and I call first dibs on showers over Nathan." Haley stated simply.

"Yeah, you're dirtier then the rest of us." Brooke said sarcastically. She still was playing with Haley over what happened at the first gas stop.

"Oh, as if you and Lucas didn't sneak off in the middle of the night to do it in the wilderness!" Haley cried.

"We weren't in the wilderness! We found a little motel and went to the bathroom." Brooke protested.

"My point proven. Let's just find this place, okay?" Haley said, ending the conversation. They were driving through the little town when they all looked up where there was a clearing of the trees and saw a beautiful white hotel with a red roof. It was huge! There were gates leading up into the driveway and the doormen were dressed like it was a Ritz Carlton.

"Hey, isn't this where the Shining was filmed?" Jake asked the receptionist when they were checking in.

"Yes, actually it is." The women said. She got them their keys and sent them off towards the elevator.

"This was such a good idea!" Jake said. It was later that day, and they were all down by the pool.

"I know, just wait until we get to my dad's old cabin. There's no one around for miles." Nathan said.

"You mean we're only staying here for one night?" Brooke protested not used to not staying in luxurious places.

"Well, yeah. I mean anyone can walk in and get our room number. If Nikki found out we were staying here, we'd be so beyond dead." Peyton told them.

"Okay, what do you want to do tonight?" Brooke changed the subject.

"I saw a sign in the elevator that said there was a fancy party in the ballroom tonight. We could check it out of you want." Haley said. They nodded and spent the rest of the day lounging around, enjoying being in each other's company and not in Nikki's. At least for now.

Yay! Another chapter done! I'm on a roll! It's going to turn into a fight for life soon though. Keep reading and reviewing and I'll keep writing! Woooo Hoooo! Thanks guys!

XOXO
