Dear Diary,
Today at school, I saw Peyton at school, she smiled at me, and I wanted to slam her head into the locker. She smiled thinking I would forgive her for betraying me with Lucas. That would be Lucas, MY Boyfriend!
I walked away from her without looking back, but then she showed at my house. I couldn't help it I let her have it. This is what happened:
"Brooke, are you in here?"
Brooke turned from her computer at the sound of Peyton's voice. 'How dare she come here!'
"Brooke, there you are," said Peyton, "I should have called, but I didn't think you would answer the phone. I wanted to tell you my side of things."
"First off you were right, I wouldn't have answered, secondly, get out!"
"Brooke, please hear me out."
"Why? So you can make me feel sorry for you! You took the only person who ever meant anything to me and you want me to listen to your side?"
"Lucas and me never dealt with our feeling for each other, you know that!" yelled Peyton. "You had to know I loved him when you started dating him!"
"I asked you if you had feeling for him and you said no! If I had known I wouldn't have bothered going after him."
"Oh please Brooke, you had to know I was lying! I loved him even when I was dating Nathan. Then I broke up with Nathan, but things never worked out with Lucas back then. You asked if I minded you dating him and I said no. Then the urge to have him became stronger than my love for you."
"Don't tell me you loved me! You don't know what real love is!" yelled Brooke.
"Will you just listen to me? After the first time we betrayed you I swore of Lucas, I swear I did. I truly feel in love with Jake and Jenny. It was only after Lucas arranged for Jake to come back to me, that I even let myself be friends with him again."
"When did it start?"
"When did what start?"
"The affair between you two!"
"After the school shooting and we didn't mean for it to happen. We were just drawn together."
"I don't want to hear about that. All I know is that I trusted you both to not hurt me again and you did!"
"Stop acting like you didn't know me and Lucas had feelings for each other!"
"All right I knew, but I thought you two loved me enough to not act on them. All you had to do was tell me and I would have let him go! You two didn't have to sneak around behind my back!"
"Brooke, look I know you're mad, but…"
"Mad? You want to know how mad I am?" she reached behind her on the desk and picked up a letter opener, "I'll tell you how mad I am at you. I want to shove this into your heart and stomach, so you will know what it feels like to have your insides ripped out of your body, by someone who claims to love you!"
"Brooke, put that down!"
"All right I will," she dropped the letter opener onto the floor and rushed toward Peyton, knocking her to the floor. She landed on Peyton and started choking her. Peyton grasped Brooke's hands trying to get free; she finally got enough strength to push Brooke off her.
Peyton launched at Brooke in anger and pulled her hair. Brooke let out a scream as Peyton pulled even tighter on her hair. Brooke reached back and slapped Peyton across the face.
Peyton released her grip on Brooke and reached for her face. Tears welled up in her eyes from the pain. She had come to apologize, but now knew the friendship between her and Brooke was irreversibly broken forever.
She turned and walked out. Brooke picked up the letter opener from the floor, sat down on the floor, and started crying.
I stay on that floor for almost an hour. I was crying for the loss of Lucas and for the loss of my best friend. Peyton and I grew up together; we were more like sisters than friends. I am so mad at the both of them for hurting me, but I miss them terribly. However, I can never trust them again. I can never have them in my life like it used to be, I can't afford for them to hurt me again.
