The moment we walked into the big halls of school, was the moment I was greeted by my best friend. She yelped when she saw me and gave me a big (a little bit painful, so hard she held me) hug.
"I'm so sorry I haven't called you or saw you when you got home! I was to busy with some work I had to do at Tric and there was this thing with Jake and.."
"You don't have to apologize P. Sawyer, I didn't called you either so don't worry! Broody here picked me up today. A little change doesn't hurt, I know we always used to drive the first day of school together but it doesn't matter. How about after school you go to my place and you can share your summer stories I haven't heard before?"
"Yeah, that sounds good to me. And who have we here; it's Lucas! How are you doing?" She said while she embraced him.
"I'm doing great! I'm actually glad the summer is over now that I can finally see all my friends again."
"Yeah me too. So I heard you have your own appartment! I want to see this place very soon! I can't believe that I haven't seen it yet. I mean, you and I were the only ones who were home and we haven't seen eachother that much! "
While Peyton and Lucas talked I smiled at how easy everything was going so far. I kind of expected that it was going to be awkward, not only with Lucas but also with the tree of us. But I know now that I was completely wrong.
We walked to our lockers and grabbed the books for our next lessons. About for days ago we got our schedules and I immediatley called the others to see if we had lessons together. I guess we got lucky because almost every lesson we had together.
"So first we have… History. Oh joy." Lucas replied sarcastic.
"I really, really don't care what happened in the past, I mean we live in the 21 century so why do we have to learn something about what happened fifty years ago?"
I groaned. It doesn't made myself feel better, I mean how much I groan or how many times I cut school I still have to go and follow the lessons.
"And that stupid old and very mean Mr. Johnson doesn't make it better. When he starts telling stories I swear I'm falling asleep again."
We all agreed that Mr. Johnson is the meanest and oldest jerk teacher in the whole school. I remembered that I got caught at skipping class and I had to sit in detention, with him. Oh My God, he is the worst. He made me sit there for four hours and to do what? Sit and listen to his stupid stories. I thought I might die from boredom! And when I tried to sneak out he grabbed me by the arm and walked me to the principal office. He said all these things about me being the popular cheerleader who doesn't care about the rules and by the way did I said that he hurt me? He got a really painful grip on my arm and it hurted for days. And the principal (who.. doesn't like me very much. Yeah that are the right words) made me stay in detention for another hour.
The second bell rang and we almost run to the classroom cause we wouln't want to be too late. But I think you can guess, when we stood there he looked at us, and I could see he was very mad. His head was red and he frowned with his eyebrows when he saw us.
"Well, well, well. Look who decided to join us today class. It's miss Davis and her clan! I think I don't have to ask why you all are too late for the first lesson, cause I think I already know the answer. Let me guess, you wasn't ready with your make-up this morning? Or you couldn't decide wich shoes you wanted to wear?" Wow, this guy was good, really good in guessing what I did this morning.
The whole class laughed, it seemed that they didn't hate Mr. Johnson as much as we did.
"No.. Sir. I was completely ready for today and trust me it was on time. Lucas and Peyton always drive with me to school but the last minute I get a call from my parents that my grandmother died this morning. So we had to go a little later then expected. If you don't believe me, I have a personal note from my mother."
I gave him the (fake) note on his desk and looked around to find a good spot where I wanted to sit. Lucas and Peyton shared a laugh and followed me.
Mr. Johnson said a quick I'm sorry and started the lesson.
Of course, me being bored, looked around. I saw Nathan sit a few tables behind me and I smiled at him. He seemed more happy then the last time I saw him. And then there was Haley, wow she changed a lot in a few weeks. Her hair was perfect and her outfit, I must say I'm impressed. She isn't the shy girl with the wrong clothes anymore. She's my friend now. I gave her a quick wave and she waved back. She mouthed at me a 'we talk as soon as this class is over'. I nodded my head and looked again around. I saw Peyton draw something and how closely I looked I saw it was Mr. Johnson with a enormous furious head. I had to keep my mouth close from laughing. When I looked further my eyes lead on Lucas. He was sneaky listening to his I-Pod and shook his head in the rhythm of the music. His eyes were on the book where Mr. Johnson was telling something about and at that very moment, he never looked more cute.
I woke up out of my trance cause Mr. Johnson's voice sounded all of a sudden very angry trough the classroom. I looked to him and noticed that the whole class, included Lucas were looking at me.
"Well miss Davis, is there a reason you spaced out?"
He looked very angry and if I would say that it was because his stupid boring classes, I think he might explode. So that answer was out of the picture.
"Ehm, I wasn't spacing out. I was actually listening to your story."
"Oh is that so. So, where did I talked about?"
Okey. Not the best reaction I could give but I couldn't think of something else. And hello! Could I get some help here please? Where the hell did the old guy talked about?
My pleading look said clearly enough for Haley who wispered: World War II to me.
"You were telling about World War II how the Americans helped Europe and about how brave the people then were."
Yay for me! I mean, I'm not that smart but I can make a great excuse if someone gives me a little bit help.
Mr. Jonhson snorted and continued his lesson. And I'm not thinking high of myself, but that was almost brilliant, you have to admit.
When I finally heard the sound of the bell, I walked as fast as I can out of that room. I was quickly followed by Peyton, Lucas, Nathan and Haley.
"Oh My God, I don't know how much I can take! This guy really hates me! Oh and thanks Tutor Girl, you totally saved me."
"Yeah well, your pleading look said enough. And that guy was really mean to you so I thought I could give you some help."
She walked to Nathan and he grabbed her hand and gave a kiss on the top of her head. By the looks they give eachother I could tell they've fallen in love all over again. I mean after the whole drama with Chris and the New York thing they weren't exacly on good terms. But by the time Nathan was back from High Flyers and Haley realized she couldn't stay in New York forever, they decided that they're gonna try things and make it better again. And well I have to admit that I'm a little jeaulous about them. They look so happy together, I don't think I saw somebody look so happy as Nathan and Haley. And I don't want to ruin that love so I just smiled at them.
"I don't know how you did it Brooke, but I don't think I've seen a teacher who hates his student that much as Mr. Johnson hates you. He keeps asking you questions and you always find a way to talk yourself out of it." Peyton said while they walked to their next class.
"Yeah well what can I say? I'm blessed with a special gift!"
"And that gift is?"
"Telling little white lies on the right time in the right places to the right people!"
They all laughed about my joke (alright I admit it, I think it's not really a joke but I just let people think that I joke about it).
Finally, after what seems hours, it was lunch time. We all sat down at a table and grabbed our bags for some food and drink. Lucas caught me staring at his oh so delicious cake he braught and he gave it to me. Our hands touched a few seconds but it could feel the electricity trough my body. He stared at me and I stared at him and our eyes locked for only a couple of seconds.
"So how about we tell eachother what we did the entire summer? I mean we haven't talked that much like we used to do so, let's start with.. Nathan and then the next person next to him etc.?" Haley suggested and everybody agreed, include me.
Nathan started to tell that he went to High Flyers and that he finally beat Dan's record. As soon as Dan's name filled the air everybody went queit for a little bit. But he continued his story and the tention was gone. Then Haley told that she missed Tree Hill and that New York just wasn't the same with us so after her tour she decided that she wanted to go home to be with her husband and friends. Then there was Lucas, who told that he went to buy his appartment with a little bit help of Andy. Ofcourse it costed a lot of time to decorate the whole thing so that's what he did mostly the entired summer. Oh and he played basketball at the Rivercourt, like that's a shocker. Then there was me and I told them that I spend my time with shopping, getting a tan and swimming. Ofcourse that are not only the three things I've done. I also called a lot with Lucas, and Peyton.
Last but not least was my best friend. She told that she missed everybody, and that she was bored out of her mind without us (also without Jake, the only contact she have with him is a bunch of e-mails).
After all this the bell ran again. The only thing that came trough my mind was: how do I get rid of this bell? This enoying sound! It is the first day at school and I already hated that bell (the only time when I loved it was when it meant that the lesson was over).
So when everybody stood up and grabbed their things, I looked at them just one more time and then I realized that I'm very blessed with the great friends (and hopefully soon to be boyfriend) I have.
Wow! Chapter 3 is all ready! Can't believe that I wrote all of this just in 1½ day. And I just started! I had no idea (and still don't know) where this is gonna go or how it's gonna end. Guess that's a good thing cause then this story is gonna be long. But in about four weeks schools starts here, so I really hope that I finished this story then. Don't know how many chapters it's gonna be. I know everything is very 'peaceful' right now in their lives but I promise I add some drama soon. Don't know what but I'll think about it. Maybe people can help me with some ideas?
