Chapter 3
"Hey, Peyton? Ohh, Im sorry were you sleeping." Brooke said as she barged into
Peyton's room. She needed som serious best friend talk.
"Well not anymore. So whats up Brooke?" Peyton asked as she sta up and turned
on the light. She yawned and looked at her friend. She rolled her eyes,
knowing it had to have something to do with Lucas.
"Well I went to talk to Lucas and he was totally talking to this brunette girl
in Karren's café and they totally looked like they had like known each other for
a long time." Brooke complained. It almost looked like a date. He looked so
happy with her. She had to destroy the stupid bitch!
"So what know you can go after Erin right?" Peyton said. She didnt understand
why Brooke always had to be the one to finish things. he moved on so why
couldnt she?
"Well you and I both know that that's not going to last long he is totally hot
but Lucas is so much better then him. I just want Lucas back." Brooke said
trying to justify the burst of love that she suddenly felt. SHe only wanted him
back becuase she didnt want him to be with anyone else. She'll just keep both
men and neither have to find out about the otrher one.
"Then go and talk to him tell him that it wa a mistake and that you didn't go
out with Erin because you still love him." Peyton said stating the obvious
action the Brooke should take. She really didnt understand how her friend could
be so stupid at times.
"But what if he sits there and tells me that he's dating that stupid brunette
girl and that he cant see me anymore cause he loves her and not me." Brooke
pouted. She was going to lose the hottest guy in the college to a nobody
without a figure. She hated the fact she'd lose him to a nerd. she jsut
couldnt take it.
"Well then you go back to dating Erin. Start with a sorry and tell him that it
was a mistake, and then just tell him the truth. Then if he says that he
forgives you, bring up the brunette. just dont go in there like a raging bull.
He'll be able to see right through your jealousy. Maybe try kissing him like
you really do love him" Peyton said. She was too good at this whole love
advice thign. She should have her own column.
"Okay thanks Peyton. You need your beauty sleep, Ill talk to you later,"
Brooke whispered as she left them room and turned the light off behing her.
"K bye." Peyton said to the darkness of her room.
"So Haley what school are you going to." Lucas asked as he sat at his desk.
She was sitting on his bed and he didnt want to push things. They were still
friends, but a lot has changed.
"I think its called tree hill high or something like that." Haley said trying
to remember what her mom said. She doesnt care about the name. She cares about
the people that will be attending it.
"Yeah what's your classes this semester" Lucas asked as he grabbed his schedule
and sat down next to her. He almost laughed at how nervous he suddenly got. It
was HAley James, his best friend growing up, why was he nervous?
"Um Math, English, Buisness and tech., and I think that's geography but I'm not
quit sure." Haley said looking at her schedule. It was hard to read becuase
the printer at school was running out of ink. Therefore, she had a bad copy and
they didnt even try to get her a better copy.
"Yeah your in 2 of my classes." lucas said as he caught his breath. He couldnt
believe what was happening. Haley JAmes was sitting next to him and he could
breathe.
"Cool which ones." HAyley asked knowing it would be nice to have him as back up.
Hopefully kids wouldnt pick on her as much. She just looked at Lucas who looked
away.
"Math and English." Lucas said quickly. Haley laughed at him and he looked
back at her
"Okay good and seeing how tomorrow is my first day how bout we have lunch
together and you give me a tour of the school that way I don't get lost."
Hayley suggested hoping hed protect her like he used to. He used to walk around
glaring at everyone before they would open their mouths... It wouldnt stop him
but atleast he tried.
"Okay and I'll pick you up tomorrow at your
house and we can walk to first period together." Lucas added. He wanted to
spend as much time together with HAyley as he could. He loved being around her.
"Okay. So I gotta go I have been here all night talking to you and my parent are
probably worried." Hayley stood up and grabbed all her books again. She smiled
at lucas.
"Okay." LUcas said. He didnt know what came over him but he wanted to kiss
Hayley so bad. He was about to kiss her when his mom walked in. Lucas looked
away hoping Hayley didnt notice what he was about to do.
"Hey Brooke hey Lucas" Karen said as she walked in with a pile of luadry in her
hand. SHe set them down and looked up a little confused.
"Mom this isn't Brooke" Lucas said looking at his knowing she should know who it
was, but she didnt even blink.
"Ohh im sorry I thought you were Brooke. Hi my names Karen" She said as she
held out her hand to the pretty young lady.
"Yeah I know karen. Its me Hayley" She said as she hugged Karen and they
laughed it off.
"Oh my god Hayley! how are you" Karen asked as she let go of the hug to look at
Haley. She had grown up so much from the last time she had seen her.
"Good for now. Lucas was telling me about your cafe. He said you could use a
little help. I just think you'd like to know I have previous experience working
at a cafe." Hayley said hoping KAren would hire her. She needed the money
right now especially.
"Yeah, sure. I need the help. how about you come in on Wednesday, and I'll
walk you through everything?" Karen asked as the two girls looked at one
another. They had a bond that all friends have. HAyley wasnt only Lucas's
friend she was also Karen's in a way, sort of like a daughter.
"Okay well I have to get going, so I'll see you guys later." HAyley said as she
smiled as started to leave forgetting her books. She was caught up in seeing
KAren she forgot she even had books to forget.
"Bye..." Lucas said as he watched her walk out of hs room. He had to laugh at
how her walking out made him feel. He wanted her to say.
"So when did you meet up with Haley." Karen asked trying to make small talk.
"Last night I ran In to her in the alley." Lucas said knowing his mom would
bitch about him being in the alleyway. He was a big boy and he could ahndle
himself. She was going to have to realize that sooner or later.
"Alley? I thought I told you no alley past 10. Why don't you listen to me?
Gees one of these days your gonna die." Karen said throwin her hands in the air
out of frustration.
Lucas laughed. He loved it when his mom went crazy. It was one of the things he
loved most about her.
"That's nothing to laugh about." KAren yelled putting her hands on her hips.
She was starting to get a little angry at where this whole converstation was
going.
"Sorry! I have to get my beauty sleep or I might DIE in school or in an
alleyway!" Lucas said just inspite of her. He laughed at the look he got back.
"Haha very funny." Karen said as she walked out of his room and shut the door
behind her.
Lucas changed into a white beater and a cofortable pair of boxers and crawled
into bed.
Haley walked into her house and started to walk upstairs to her bedroom when her
mother stoped her. She stilled waited up for her. She forgot the type of
freedom she had when she lived with.. It...
"And where have you been all night?" Her mom said a hint of anger in her voice.
But it wasnt too bad becuase she had a pretty good idea of where she had been.
It wasnt like Hayley knew many people in town or actually liked them.
"I was out with an old friend." Hayley smiled thinking about her time with
Lucas. She promsied herself next time she was with him, she was going to do the
one thing she had always wanted to do. She closed her eyes imagining being with
him.
"Is this old friends name Lucas?" Hayley's mom asked raising an eyebrow. While
she knew they were just friends, she couldnt help but wonder what type of young
man he grew up to be. She tried to stay out of town affairs unless it had to do
with HAyley.
"Yeah how did you know?" Haley asked suprised her mother knew where she was
this whole. She hoped she wasnt spying on her, that would be embarassing.
"He just called to talk to you about some thing. He said to call him back."
Hayley's mom said looking at her. She knew her daughter was experienced...
"Okay, I wasn't doing anything. I was just talking to him." HAyley said trying
to explain. She didnt like the way her mom was looking at her like she just ahd
sex with Lucas. If she had, everyone she knew would know it. Shes not getting
that involved with someone for awhile. Especially when that someone is in love
with Brooke.
"Yeah I'm sure." Hayley's mom said and walked away.
Haley laughed and ran up to her room and called Lucas. She was too excited to
think normally. Maybe for once he felt the same way and he was calling to tell
her how madly in love with her he was.
"Hey Lucas my mom said you called me." Hayley asked trying to hide the
excitement in her voice. She felt like a little girl again. She knew Lucas was
different but she couldnt help but have a major crush on him still. He would
always be her first love... But he never loved her back.
"Yeah you left your books over here. I was just wondering if you wanted me to
drop them off or if you were planning on getting them?" Lucas said hoping she
wanted to see him as badly as he wanted to see her. He didnt know why he was
feeling so strange. he didnt feel this way before.
"Um, I'll be right over." HAyley said. She didnt want her mom to see lucas
come over to the house in the middle on the night. Shed start to suspect
something that wasnt even happening.
"Well, was planning on going to bed.. But you can pick them up anytime
tomorrow."
"Okay I'll pick them up this afternoon once I've had some rest."
"Sounds good to me. See ya then."
" Yeah see ya," Hayley said hiding the smile in her voice.
Lucas hung up the phone and pulled his blankets up. He was going to get a good
nights sleep, especcially since hayley was on his mind. His dreams of HAyley
were disturbed when he heard a knock on his door in the morning.
"Come in the doors open." Lucas said as he turned the light by his bed on.
"Hey Lucas." Brooke said as she walked in slowly. She didnt know if he was
going to talk to her. She just wanted him back. She wanted him to be holding
her.
"Hey Brooke," Lucas said as he rolled his eyes. He knew she was here becuase of
Hayley. She only wanted him back becuase she couldnt have him.
"I wanted to talk to you about some thing." Brooke said as she walked over and
sat down on the bed next to him. She loved being right next to him. She could
feel his body heat.
"Okay, talk..." Lucas offered. He had nothing to say to her, but he didnt mind
hearing her beg for forgiveness. He laughed at the sight of Brooke Davis on her
knees.
"I didn't actually mean what I said about Erin, and I didn't actually go out
with him. I didn't go out with him cause I still love you. Lucas we belong
together. I love you." Brooke said using her most seductive tone. She wanted
him to want her and not that stupid brunette she saw him with.
"Look Brooke I would love to have you as my girlfriend right now, but theres
just so much in my life right know that I need to fix." Lucas said. There was
a lot in his life he had to fix. His relationship with Hayley. He wanted to
know everything that had happened in the last eight years. He wanted to
actually pick up where they left off.
"What do you want to fuck that stupid bitch?"Brooke yelled at him. Who did he
think he was to be turning her down. He should be begging for her.
"What are you talking about?" Lucas said a trying to sound confused. He was
used to her calling Hayley names, but the rest of what she said was nonsense,
wasnt it. He didnt like HAyley that way.
"I saw you with a brunette last night in the café and if shes the reason why you
don't want to get back together that's fine. I just hope she realizes its not
as big as your head..."
"What? Haley? No, never, I was friends with her like 8 years ago. but she
moved away. Now, she came back cause her marrage didn't work and she's living
with her parents again. She's not the reason. I still love you to but I need to
fix some stuff like grades and getting to know my friend again." Lucas said
trying to convince himself and not Brooke. He wanted Brooke back, he didnt like
HAyely. Why did he try to kiss her earlier. Nothing made sense any more.
"Okay and when you fix that you let me know okay." Brooke pouted. He'd want
her back... It may not be right now, but he would eventually. She smiled at him
as she stood up.
"Okay." Lucas hugged Brooke. He loved the feel of her in his arms. He almost
forgot how great it felt when they were together. He almost didnt want to let
go, but there was another knock on the door.
"Come in the doors open." Lucas said thinking it was just his mom doing more
laundry. He looked at Brooke as the door opened. He didnt know what he wanted
anymore.
"Hey Lucas. I'm here to pick up my books" Hayley said as she stopped dead in
her tracks. Sje should ahve known better. She tried to hide the pain in her
eyes. He never loved you she kept telling herself. She didnt need him. He was
just a friend.
"Yeah, here you go. Haley this is Brooke, Brooke this is Haley." Lucas said
releasing Brooke. It was if he got caugth cheating on her. He felt so
horrible.
"Hey that name sounds familiar" Brooke said looking at Hayley trying to figure
out where she knew her from. She smiled trying to make a good impression.
"Really?" Hayley said trying not to laugh. How could brooke not remember what
she did to her. She wanted to kick the living daylights out of Brooke, but she
was better then that. She smiled back trying to be nice for him.
"Yeah ohh I remember elementary school. Ohh my god I am so sorry I was such a
magare Bitch to you I'm really sorry." Brooke said as she held out a hand for
Hayley to shake.
"Yeah that's okay." Hayley said ignoring Brooke's hand and looking at Lucas.
She rolled her eyes as she heard the bitch start opening her mouth again.
"Well what brings you back to tree hill." Brooke asked trying to sound
interested. Maybe if Lucas saw her being nice he would want her back even more.
"Money problems." HAyley said trying to find an escpae. She couldnt take it.
"Ohh im sorry"
"Yeah so I'll see you guys later then." hayley said as she raced out the door,
allowing herself to cry once she knew she was a safe distance from the two of
them.
"Yeah sure bye Haley." Lucas called after Hayley.
"Wow she seems really nice. Hey when she gets fed up with her parents she is
slways welcome to stay in the other bedroom in my apartment." Brooke was
planning on making a good impression on Lucas. That way when he wanted to spen
time with HAyley he could spenf time with her. She wasnt about to let some
little girl come and take her man.
"Okay I'll let her know that thanks Brooke." Lucas said looking at her. She
looked so beautiful sitting in front of him.
"Wait no I want to tell her I was such a Bitch to her in elementary school so I
think I should tell her." Brooke said. She wanted HAyley to like her. It was
that old saying: keep your friends close and your enemies closer.
"You do know you were like that to me too, right." Lucas said as he looked at
her.
"Ohh yeah but I can make that up to you easily." Brooke grinned.
"Yeah that's true but nothing sexual counts." Lucas said showing she couldnt
just fuck her way out of this like she always tried to.
"Sure why not. Well I would love and stay and chit chat more but I got stuff to
do today so I'll see you later." Brooke smiled knowing he wouldnt say no if
she offered. She had major planning to do. Like enlisting Peyton in the
destroy Hayley plan.
"Okay bye." Lucas said
"Bye." Brooke said as she walked out of the door.
Hope you like this part I'll keep righting eventually. Thanks for the reviews.
