Previously:

"..I love you and I want to be with you, im never gonna hide that, not anymore" he says taking her hand and placing it in his bigger one

She looks into his eyes for the second time of the day "you..you love me?" she says not being able to believe what she heard

"With all my heart" he says onestly

"how do you feel about me Brooke?"

"I love you too"

don't let her hurt you again Nathan" she says softly but sternly

"I wont" he nods and sweetly kisses her hand before getting out, grabbing his bags and disappearing into the apartment block

She smiles looking down at her hand and bringing it to her lips, kissing the place he kissed softly

Chapter 4 – Maybe now your not my everything..

Peyton arrives home after dropping Nathan off and sighs falling onto her bed, she hears a voice from her door and looks towards it "what the hell do you want? I told you to stay away from me" she says in a harsh tone

"Im your mother…im have a right to see you Peyton" says a very stubborn Ellie leaning against Peyton's doorframe

"Not if I don't want to see you…My dad comes home today and I really don't want him to see you here….may think I believe your 'story'" she uses her hand to make quote marks "which I don't"

"riiiight that's why half of these pictures are of me and our little confrontation" she says now looking through Peytons drawing book

"THAT'S PRIVATE" a very angry Peyton snatches the album from here "Now get the hell out"

"I will be back" Ellie says with a nod before leaving sadly

"Don't bother" Peyton mumbles under her breath

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"That's great…so we..we can be together right?" a bright faced Lucas Scott asks giving Brooke hand a squeeze.

"um…i..i don't think im ready for that, a big exclusive relationship" she sighs "maybe for now we should just be 'non – exclusive, until im ready"

"non – exclusive? Meaning what?" he asks alittle confused

"meaning we hang out, movies, beach, bars.." she says the last one with a small wink and he chuckles

"do…do we kiss?" he asks a very shy look on his face

"you bet your ass we kiss" she giggles

"do we do more? Than kiss?" suggestively

"Maybe" she smirks and he again chuckles "and we can see other people" his face drops for a second

'this or nothing luke…this or nothing' his mind tells him "Sounds genius" he smiles and she nods

"soo" he stands "I told Peyton we would meet her and Nathan for some food and chilling at the café….ok?"

"Great" she smiles brightly and grabs one of her bags "im gonna go change" she says going to the bathroom. And he smiles until she leaves then his face falls alittle.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Nathan stands shorts only staring out of the window in his apartment, taking deep breathes and thinking of what exactly to say to Haley when she gets home from where ever the hell she is, he looks at the clock and realises its 6pm, he is supposed to be meeting Peyton, Luke and Brooke in an hour

"screw it" he says "im done waiting" to himself and goes to the bathroom finding some decent clothes to wear and changing, he grabs his keys and heads for the door only to see Haley standing shocked in the door way

"hi" she smiles and pulls him into a hug, he hugs her back by habit then pulls apart

"hey" he gives her a small smile before pulling from her grasp completely

"how..how are you Nate? How was camp? Its so great to see you" she smiles happily taking in his expression, her smile drops alittle

"im fine..camp was tough and I wish I could say the same" he says answering all her questions

She sighs and takes a step closer to him "Nathan,.." she starts of but he cuts her off

"im heading out, I have to meet Peyton and the others" he says taking another step back

"Nate we need to talk…NOW" she says seriously

"well you left Haley…you left and now your back..what more is there to say?" he asks alittle cocky "I have to go" he says walking past her to the door

She closes her eyes for a second taking a deep breath "Nathan please" she turns and he is already gone, she feels tears in her eyes and sits now crying

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Peyton stands in the mirror admiring herself and thinking if this outfit was the one to wear, she is wearing a cream coloured strapless top she bought with Brooke last year and her favourite pear of denim jeans, along with some heels she finds hard to control, covering her feet, she sighs and puts her, short, newly cut, hair behind her ear before smiling alittle "this is it Peyton"

"Talking to yourself huh?" a light well known chuckle is heard from her door, smiling she turns to face him

"Nathan its only 7.30 and I thought we were meeting at the café" she smiles sweetly at him and he walks further into her room, taking in her appearance, he egnores her question

"WOW.." he says in aww and she blushes slightly "you look great Peyt" he smiles "I like the hair"

She chuckles "yeah well I need a change" she rolls her eyes at her self

"Well my lady, we better go or we will be late" he holds his arm out for her and she links hers into his "Lets go before Brooke eats all the food at the café"

She smiles at him not really concentrating on his joke and snuggles up against him as they leave her room
