A/N: I know it's been a really long time since I updated. I've been so crazed. Anyway I thought I'd fix a few things. Peyton is with Jake. Brooke is with Lucas. Nathan and Haley are officially divorced and she is touring Europe with Chris, her new husband.
"Okay, basically everyone in Tree Hill has a complicated past. We're going to Brooke's house. She's my best friend. Don't worry. She's not as peppy as she seems. She's dating Lucas. There's a bunch of history there and I'll explain it later. I'm with Jake. He has a daughter Jenny. Jenny's mom is kinda out of the picture. She's in jail and is totally crazy. And then there's Nathan. Nathan's had a hard time this year. He's divorced and kind of bitter. But I think he'll like you." Peyton told Cali as they were driving towards Brooke's house. Just then the song on the radio ended.
"What's up, Tree Hill? We have a new single from a local girl named, Haley James Keller. It's calle-" Peyton hit the power button and turned off the radio.
"Nathan's ex-wife." she said when she saw Cali give her a weird look.
"Oh." Cali said as they pulled up to white house with a red door.
"We're here!" Peyton said getting out of the car.
"Hey, P. Sawyer!" Brooke said answering the door.
"Hey, Brooke. This is my sister, Cali. Long story." she said not wanting to explain.
"Okay. Well, come in!" Brooke said getting the point.
Nathan Scott was sitting at his kitchen counter. He was looking through pictures from his childhood. Stuff wasn't this complicated back then, he thought.
Ring, ring
Ring, ring
"Hello?" Nathan said sounding unexcited.
"Nate, it's Brooke. We're having a 'Welcome To Tree Hill!' party for Peyton's sister. You in?" Brooke's voice was peppier than ever.
"Peyton has a sister?" he asked confused.
"Yeah. I haven't gotten all the details yet but I'll feel you in."
"Okay. I'll be there. 7 okay?" Nathan replied.
"Um, make it 8. Bring the booze! Love ya, bye!" she said fast.
"Hell, that girls full of energy." Nathan said as he hung up the phone.
"This is gonna be so awesome!" Tim Smith said as he walked into Brooke's kitchen.
"Who invited Dim?" Brooke asked. But she didn't get an answer. She looked radiant. She had on a black tank top and a denim mini. Her hair was in soft curls, half up and half down.
"Where's my girl?" Lucas asked walking into the kitchen. He had on khaki's and a blue striped button-up polo.
"Right here!" Brooke said kissing him.
"Hey, guys." Nathan said walking up and sitting on the counter.
"Hey, man." Lucas said slightly embarrassed.
"Where is this girl? I'm bored." Nathan said
"She's upstairs getting ready." Brooke said pouring herself a drink.
"You look great." Peyton said for what seemed like the millionth time.
"Okay, I'm ready." Cali said coming out of the bathroom in a pink polo shirt and a pair of jeans. Her hair was in low braided pigtails.
"Thank, God! Let's go." she said getting up from Brooke's bed. Peyton had her long curly hair back in a headband and jeans and a black beatles t-shirt on.
"Brooke, she's ready." Peyton said sticking her head in the kitchen
"Okay. Alright everyone! The moment you've been waiting for: Miss Cali Sawyer!" Brooke yelled from the top of a table.
Cali walked down Brooke's staircase and saw all eyes on her. Something she was not used to. She caught the eye of a cute guy sitting on the kitchen counter. He smiled. She blushed. He looked away. Good job, Cali. Now he thinks you're an idiot. She thought to herself.
Nathan saw the girl he assumed must be Cali.
"Wow." he said loud enough for Brooke to hear. She giggled but he didn't care. Cali was beautiful. He had to talk to her.
A/N: I'm going to make Brooke and Nathan best friends. And Brooke might have feelings for Nathan. I'm not sure yet. Next: the party. With a fun game of "spin the body".
