Chapter 4

It was now Friday night and everyone was at Lucas' and Haley's house. Nathan was on one of end the couch and Jake was on the other end. Lucas was on the love seat with Bevin leg's popped up on him, and Tim was in the rocking chair. Brooke, Haley and Bevin were laying on the floor covered up with blankets in front of the couch Nathan and Jake was on. Everyone was there that planned on it and they had just got done watching the movie Mr. and Mrs. Smith.

Brooke sat up, "I am going to go get some popcorn," She got up to make her way to the kitchen.

Everyone nodded, "I'll help you." Jake replied as he too got up and made his to the kitchen as well.

"So," Haley sat up and she laid back against the couch and she didn't know that she was between legs as he sat behind her on the couch. Nathan smirked as she continued to talk, "What movie should we watch next?"

"How about Brokeback Mountain?" Tim asked as everyone looked at him funny. "What?"

Lucas shook his head, "Did your mom drop you on your head when you were a baby?"

Tim laughed, "Ugh no...Not that I know..."

"Anyways Tim, no. Were are so not watching that movie..I watched it once and that was enough for me." Haley said.

Harley nodded, "Yeah, and he took it up the ass like a sport."

Tim looked at them confused, "Tim, do you even know what the movie is about?" Nathan asked.

Tim nodded, "Yeah, it's about two cowboys on the mountain."

"And what else?" Lucas asked.

"That's all I know." Everyone looked at Tim and laughed.

"Tim," Nathan began, "It's about two gay guys."

Tim's eyes practically jumped out of his eyes, "Ugh, nev-never mi-mind.." Tim said as he stuttered.

Haley rolled her eyes, "It's not just about that, it's about a love story and well there is so much more than that."

Harley said as she eyed Tim, "Dats true, but any-ONE else have any other ideas about what we can watch?"

Bevin eyes lit up, "The Notebook!"

The guys shook their head, "Nah," Lucas replied as Nathan nodded.

"Fine but we are going to watch a love story, but right now how about we watch The American Haunting?" Haley insisted.

"Okay," Everyone replied but not all together.

"'Okay, I am going to check on Brooke and Jake," Haley replied as she got up to go into the kitchen.

When Haley was close to the kitchen, she heard Jake and Brooke arguing so she stepped closer to hear better.

"Brooke, we need to talk about this!" Jake said in a loud but serious tone.

Brooke rolled her eyes, "Talk about what Jake? Huh, tell me exactly what we need to talk about! Jake, all we did was sleep together at that party, that was it. Nothing else...Besides it didn't mean anything, anything at all."

It hit Haley like a ton of bricks. She couldn't believe that her best friend slept with Jake and didn't even mention it to her but it all made sense now. Ever since that last party they all went to, Jake and Brooke had been acting really weird around each other but she never imagined that was the reason why.

Jake looked into Brooke's eyes, he knew she was lying. "Brooke, don't lie to me...Sex is never just sex and it certainly isn't nothing."

"It was just sex!" Brooke retorted.

"Damn it, Brooke! Just look me in the eye and tell me that it meant nothing to you because you and I both know that it was more than that!"

Brooke looked him dead in the eye, "It meant nothing."

Jake threw his hands up in the air, "You liar! I can see the pain and hut in your eyes! Why can't we have something more? Please Brooke, just be honest with me, that's all I am asking."

Brooke became silent and Nathan sneaked up to Haley and tapped her on her shoulder. Haley jumped and turned around to face Nathan.

In a harsh whisper, "Damn you Nate! You scared me, now shh!" Haley said.

Also in a whisper, "Someones noisy." That was all Nathan said before he too started to listen to what was going on.

Brooke took a deep breath and let it out before she spoke. "I-I just can't. I am so sorry Jake."

Jake grabbed her hands and put hers into his, "Why, baby, why?"

"I don't know..."

"Yes you do, just tell me. Don't you dare be afraid of what we have and I know that when we touch, you can feel the sparks too. I know that when I come into a room, I see how your face brightens up and that when it's just you and I, you have that special smile that is just for me. I know that you steal glances at me every chance you get. And I know that I make you weak in the knees and that you have butterflies in you stomach when I am with you or when I am on your mind. I know that I make your heart race faster at just the sound of my name. I also know that I am the last person you think about before you go to sleep and that I am the first person you think about when you wake up. Ask me Brooke, ask me how I know these things." Jake said as he looked her in the eye the whole time.

"How?"

"Because that is exactly how I feel." Seconds later, Nathan and Haley could here the noises they were making as they were kissing each other.

Haley looked up at Nathan, "What should we do?"

"Ugh, should we walk in or what?"

Haley thought about it for a second, "Let's go back in the living room." Nathan nodded.
