Brooke decided that this fashion show wasn't only going to be her Clothes Over Bros line. She would have all different designers, like Prada, Versace, Juicy Couture, and maybe Abercrombie and Fitch. And they would have sexy little Santa outfits for the opening number! Then all the boys would pay to watch it. They could do it in the auditorium, and the stage could be used as the runway. She started to explore her super-large closet. Then she remembered Lucas. She had been so caught up in everything else; she forgot that because of Lucas, she now had a one in forty chance of winning $10,000.
At school, Nathan saw the posters advertising the fashion show. He knew Brooke would obviously organize a party afterward, I mean, she was Brooke, right? Haley would be there. She might even be in the show. He pondered on it a while, and then came up with an idea. And after school, he went off to do some shopping. But not for himself…
Peyton and Jake had been instant messaging all day long, but hadn't even heard each other's voices once yet. They knew they weren't exactly ready. Apparently, he would arrive in Tree Hill about 5:00 P.M. And he said he would come straight to Peyton's.
Lucas and Haley were sitting at lunch together. Lucas wanted to know all about her last few days with Nathan, and vice versa. "It's pretty amazing, isn't it?" Haley asked. "What?" "Being in love!" Lucas smiled and nodded. It was. Haley grinned back and said, "But promise me you won't forget about me." Lucas joked, "Don't worry, I will." "Hey!" Haley pushed him. "Just kidding."
Jake looked at himself in the mirror for the thousandth time. He had jitters crawling in his pants from being so anxious. Right now, he was in Tree Hill. Ten miles to Peyton's house. He looked next to him at Jenny in her car seat. She looked so beautiful! Now, she was almost a year and a half old, and she was getting bigger every day.
The taxi stopped. Jake paid and thanked the driver, who helped him get his luggage out of the car. Then the cab took off. Peyton watched from her window, and gasped at the sight of Jake and an ever so beautiful Jenny. She had made sure she looked nice when Jake got here with the help of Brooke. She was wearing her Ezra Fitch plaid skirt from Abercrombie and Juicy heels she borrowed from Brooke. She knew she looked cute, but was that enough?
Peyton took off as fast as possible, sprinting down the stairs. She sprung open the door, and came to a screeching halt. She took in everything she was seeing. "Hi!" she yelled. He was still standing at the edge of her driveway. "Hi!" he replied. She felt an energy no one but Jake could make her feel. Her mind raced and adrenaline rushed through her body as she ran up her driveway and leaped into Jake's arms, wrapping her legs around his as he lifted her into the air. She hugged him tight and showered him with kisses all over his cheeks and lips and ears and neck and everywhere she could reach.
Finally, after a long time, Jake put Peyton back down on the ground. "Oh my gosh! I missed you so much! I kept thinking about you the entire time!" She rambled on and on, until Jake stopped her. "I missed you too." She placed another fat kiss on his lips and then looked over to Jenny. She lifted her out of the stroller and kissed her several times too. "Don't you look pretty?" Peyton cooed. Jenny said something that sounded like, "Mommy."
