There Is No "I" In Team is a song by Taking Back Sunday. It is also the title of this chapter. :)

I don't own anything.

A lot will happen in this Chapter! Also, It may seem that Lucas and Peyton will not get back together, this will happen in this fic, a lot. Leyton fans, don't worry, they will be. Oh and there is a little bit of CURSING in the chapter! You have been warned!

Previously on LRP1

Brooke, I'm sorry. You can't move out. Peyton.

Brooke grabbed the note and crumbled it up, throwing it on the floor. She reached for the doorknob. Locked.

"That little..."

Brooke took her car over to Bevin's house. Sadly it was all she could take; Peyton had looked the door so Brooke couldn't get the rest of her stuff. This was something Peyton would have to pay for tomorrow at school. Brooke rode with Bevin to school the next morning; there was no point in taking two cars.

Brooke saw Rachel near Mouth in the hallway. "I'll see you later Bevin!"

"Bye!"

"Mouth! You can't ignore me forever!"

"Then take a hint! Get lost Rachel!"

Mouth walked away. Leaving Rachel hurt.

"Hey Mouth!" Brooke called from behind. He turned to wait for her. "Hey buddy!" She put an arm around him. As they started walking away, she turned back to Rachel smirking.

Rachel was furious.

Brooke and Mouth made their way to Brooke's locker. "So how was your weekend?"

"Horrible. Yours?"

"Same" They smiled at each other. Mouth noticed Peyton walking toward them. "Hey Peyton!"

"Hey" She looked at Brooke. "Hey Brooke"

"Oh, I'm sorry, You look just like this back-stabbing bitch I used to be best friends with." She slammed her locker.

Mouth wasn't sure what to do. Why were Brooke and Peyton acting like this? He saw Jake somewhere behind Peyton. "Jake!" He said. Hopefully Jake would make them act normal.

As soon as Mouth called out his name Brooke looked down at the floor. Jake. She felt nervous, guys never made her nervous before.

"Hey" Jake said apprehensively. Mouth felt the tension grow.

"Guys, what's going on?"

"I made a mistake." Lucas said from behind Mouth. "I made a big mistake and I ruined everything."

Brooke turned to look at Lucas. "I have to go to Spanish."

"You always skip Spanish." Peyton replied. She wanted Brooke to stay so they could work this out.

"Yeah well, You always stab me in the back so, maybe if I learn Spanish, you'll learn how to be a true friend and not sleep with my boyfriend!" Brooke turned, walking away.

"I DIDN'T SLEEP WITH HIM!" Peyton yelled. Everyone in the hallway looked at her, except Brooke.

"I have to go." Jake said. He knew well that he had Spanish next so he would be spending all of next period with Brooke. "Brooke!" He called. She turned back and waited. "Vayamos!"

Brooke smiled. "Spanish?"

"Yeah"

There were two empty seats near the door. The Spanish teacher arrived and told them to find a partner. "You and your partner must work together. You have 3 weeks, at the end of those 3 weeks you must have a conversation, in Spanish in front of the class. This will be worth 50 percent of your grade. Find away to work together so that you both know the language well. After you are finished I will test you by asking you questions in Spanish and you will have to answer me according to your previous conversation."

"Partner?" Brooke turned to Jake.

"Si." Jake replied. "How do you say partner en espanol?"

"Brooke looked it up. "Socio"

"Bueno" Jake replied as they started laughing.

Peyton sat down at the usual table she shared with Brooke and Haley at lunch. She saw Haley. "Hey!" Haley looked at her.

"Hey Peyton. Umm, I'm going to go to the tutor center for lunch. I have some stuff to work on."

"Oh okay, do you know where Brooke is?"

"Yeah, she's at the library, with Jake, they are working on some Spanish assignment."

"Oh." Peyton sat alone eating her Jell-O. This is so messed up. How am I going to fix this?

"Hey there Blondie!"

"Rachel? Go away!"

"Look," She said sitting down. "I have a deal for you, you'll want to listen."

"I doubt it."

"You don't want to get your best buddy back? Fine. Whatever." She stood up to leave. Peyton was desperate.

"Wait." Peyton said. Rachel smiled at her. "I'm listening."

"Okay, I'll get you back in good terms with Brooke, if you help me get Mouth talking to me again. Deal?"

Peyton paused. She didn't want to make a deal with Rachel but she had no choice. "Deal!"

"Can I ask you something?" Jake looked at Brooke.

"You just did." She replied, smiling.

"There is another thing." He smiled.

"Sure. I mean, Si." She laughed.

"Do you want to come over tomorrow? I mean, we can study and stuff. You know for our grade and all." Jake started talking really fast. He was nervous.

"Wow, you lost me there J." Brooke looked at him very confused.

"Umm, do you want to come over tomorrow..." He started again, this time at normal speed.

"Sure!" Brooke said cutting him off. She turned back to her book as Jake looked at her. I am so obvious, she thought. I answered way to fast.

Jake's heart beat faster. Brooke just said she would go over to his house? "Okay" He said looking back at his book.

"Hey Rachel!" Bevin said walking towards her.

"Hey"

"Still no luck with Mouth?"

"My luck is about to change. If I get Peyton and Brooke back together then Mouth will talk to me." She said. She noticed that that may not have sounded great so she added. "It will be good for the squad."

"Yeah," Bevin agreed. "I wish they could be friends again."

Rachel noticed Brooke walking alone in the hallway. "I'll see you later!"

"Bye" Bevin said confused.

"Hey Brooke!" Rachel said.

"What do you want?"

"I just wanted to say I'm sorry, I mean, it's so embarrassing. Your boyfriend with your best friend. It must really suck!"

"Get lost Rachel"

"Look, I know you and Peyton aren't buddy-buddy anymore, it sucks for the squad. Think about it." She said as she walked away. Brooke watched her as she left.

"Hey Nate!" Lucas called to his brother.

"Hey."

"Crazy weekend hun?"

"Yeah, Especially for you! Cheating on your girlfriend with her best friend." Nathan replied.

"What? Are you going to lecture me too?"

"No. I just have this to say, you suck. No matter which way you look at it Luke, you suck. You keep getting between Peyton and Brooke. It's not cool! Pick one. And pick the RIGHT one!" Nathan walked away.

"What is his problem" Lucas said under his breath.

"He's tired of seeing you mess up." Skillz walked past Lucas.

"Hey Brooke!" Haley walked to Brooke.

"Hey Haley"

"So, what happens at practice?" Haley asked.

"I have no idea." They walked to their next class. They saw Peyton in the hallway.

"Peyton" Lucas rushed over to Peyton as she left her locker.

"Lucas, go away." She turned and left him standing alone.

She made her way past Brooke and Haley. She didn't look at either of them.

"Hey Baby!" Bevin ran towards Skillz and gave him a hug. Skillz had been walking with Jake.

"Hey Shorty!"

"You are going to watch me practice after school right?"

"Yeah, I'll be there."

"Great!" She turned to Jake. "You'll be there too? Right?" She smiled. She wanted to do whatever she could to get Brooke and Jake together.

"Umm, I don't think so."

"YOU HAVE TOO!" She yelled. Skillz and Jake looked at her funny. "Please?"

"Umm, okay." Bevin smiled and then walked away. Jake shook his head as he looked at Skillz. "Is she always like that?"

"Yep"

Peyton sat outside waiting for practice to start.

"No ipod today?" She turned to see Brooke. She didn't know what to say. Brooke sat down next to her.

"So, How much do you really want to be my friend?" She looked at Peyton.

"Brooke, I'm not going to play games with you. I'm sorry for what I did..."

"So sorry you made a deal with Rachel?" Brooke asked. Bevin had told her how much the "squad" wanted Brooke and Peyton to get along. Even Rachel.

"Brooke..." Peyton started.

"Truce?" Brooke interrupted.

Haley walked with Nathan to the field for cheer practice.

"You may want to get an adult." Nathan told Haley.

"Why?"

"Because Peyton is about to die." He pointed at Peyton and Brooke out on the field.

"What's the catch?" Peyton asked. She was suspicious of Brooke's forgiveness.

"The catch? You have to trust me."

"What?"

"Well, I trusted you and you pretty much ran that in the dirty, so, you have to trust me enough for the both of us."

"I'll do whatever it takes Brooke."

"Good." Brooke said standing up.

"Do you want to shake on it?" Peyton asked.

"No, if you're lying then we were never really friends at all."

"Hey guys!" Haley ran towards them to mediate.

"Hey Haley! Practice is about to start." Brooke said to Haley as she walked over toward Bevin.

"Are you okay?" Haley asked Peyton.

"She called a truce."

"What?"

"Truce." Peyton repeated completely amazed that Brooke wasn't angry and screaming at her.

"Wow" Haley stood amazed. If it would have been her, she never would have forgiven Peyton.

"I know." Cheer practice started.

Jake walked out to the field. He stopped to watch Brooke as she did her cheers. She is so beautiful, he thought.

"Why do I get the feeling that you are staring at some of the Tree Hill cheerleaders because you like her more than just friends?" Mouth walked up to Jake.

Jake didn't answer, he just looked back to the field.

"Why do I have a feeling this is going to get very complicated?" Mouth shook his head. Jake looked at him.

"Because, this is something you only feel once in your life." He replied, remembering what Whitey had told him.
