Previously on LRP1
"What I want?" She looked at him. "I want you! I'm so sorry about what I did. I never meant for this all to happen." She started crying. "The worst part about this is that you hate me. If you want me to tell everyone I did it I will. I understand that you can't forgive me Mouth. I really do. I can't even forgive myself for hurting you. I get it." Mouth watched her as she cried. He hated seeing her like that.
"Please don't cry Rach." He said putting an arm around her.
Mouth: Emil Ludwig once said...
Rachel: "The decision to kiss for the first time is the most crucial in any love story..."

Jake and Brooke kissing in a storage room at school. Brooke breaks apart from Jake.
"That was fun" She smiles. He nods and kisses her again. The bell rings. She stops him. "Wait. What bell is that?"
"The last one" Jake says kissing her again. She kisses him back but then pushes him away.
"Practice is about to start."
"We could just skip it like last period." Jake suggests.
Brooke looks at him. Nods and then they continue to kiss.
Haley, Peyton and the rest of the squad are in the gym. The boys are also there.
"Where is Brooke?" Haley asks.
"I don't know." Peyton says. She looks at Bevin who shrugs.
"Well, are we going to start without her or is someone going to call her?" Rachel asks.
Peyton looks at Haley and then grabs her phone.
Back in the storage room.
Brooke's cellphone starts ringing. She stops kissing Jake and looks at the caller id. "It's Peyton." She looks to Jake. "I have to go. And besides, you're back on the team, meaning you don't want Whitey pissed at you already." She exits the storage room leaving Jake looking after her. He takes a deep breath and exits as well.
Back in the gym.
"Jagielski?" Whitey calls. "Where is that boy? I told him not to be late."
The gym door opens. Brooke walks in as everyone looks at her.
"Can you say late?" Haley eyes her.
"Sorry, I um, I got...tangled up." Brooke answered.
The door opens again. This time it is Jake.
"Jagielski! LATE! Did you forget where the gym was?" Whitey roars.
"Sorry Coach." Jake said walking to the boys team.
"Get over here with the other girls." Whitey continued.
"Well, I guess we all know who you were tangled up with." Rachel says starting the music for the girls to practice.
Peyton looks at Brooke suspiciously. Brooke turns away but Bevin runs to her and says "You have to tell me all about this later!"
On the court.
Jake stands next to Lucas. "Hey." They hadn't really talked since he got back.
"Hey" Lucas replies. "So, you and Brooke?" Lucas asked. Jake just looked at him.
"What's up with the lateness?" Nathan walked over to the two boys.
"Umm." Jake wasn't sure what to say. "I was...studying."
Lucas and Nathan looked at Jake. "Whatever you say" Nathan replied.
Jake waited outside of the gym for Brooke after practice.
"Hey." He said when she walk out of the gym.
"Hey there!" Brooke said walking to him. She moved to kiss him but Lucas walked out of the gym at that time.
Lucas glanced at them and then kept walking.
"So, are we just going to keep this a secret?" Jake looked at Brooke. "Only making out in storage rooms because no one will see us?"
"I just, I need to tell Peyton first." She bit her lip and then continued. "She needs to know. She's your ex and my friend. I just need to make sure she's okay with this. Which she should be. It's just a formality Jake." She touched his arm.
"Okay." Jake nodded.
"You know, if you don't want to make out in a storage room then we could always go make out in your car." She smiled.
"Well, I never said I was against the storage room make out but the school is going to be locked in a few minutes and, my car is just over there." He puts his arm around her and they walk to his car.
Bevin and Skillz were sitting on her bed watching a movie after practice.
"Skillz?"
"Yeah?"
She turned to face him. "I love you."
Skillz was surprised. They had never said I love you to each other before.
"I love you too Bevin." They kissed.
Haley was sitting on the coach in their apartment when Nathan came out of the bedroom.
"Haley?" Nathan said sitting on the coach next to Haley.
"Yeah baby?" She replied.
"Sing to me?" He said.
"What?" Haley was surprised and confused. Did he know Chris had called?
"You never sing anymore. Sing to me."
Peyton sat alone in her room.
Her cell phone started to vibrate. LUCAS. She ignored it.
"Lucas?" Brooke asked from the door.
Peyton turned to Brooke.
"You should call him" Brooke said sitting on Peyton's bed next to her.
"Brooke, I," Peyton started.
"I want you to be happy. If Lucas makes you happy then you should be with him." Brooke said.
"But, he was your boyfriend. I'm so sorry Brooke."
Brooke gave Peyton a hug. "Lucas wasn't the one for me. Maybe he's the one for you."
Peyton smiled at Brooke. "So, what exactly is going on Davis?" Peyton eyed Brooke. "You show up and tell me to date your ex, you called the truce, I heard about you getting Mouth to talk to Rachel."
"Well, by no means do I like Rachel now but, this whole thing, with us, it just helped me realize what I wanted."
Peyton looked at Brooke. "Jake?" Brooke turned to Peyton.
"Yeah," She said simply.
"I'm happy for you two. He's great, and so are you." Peyton hugged Brooke. They sat quietly for a second.
"So, you're going to be a mommy now?" Peyton joked.
"Shut up!" Brooke said hitting Peyton with a pillow.
It was the next morning in the Naley Apartment.
"Haley, what are you doing?" Nathan watched as Haley tried to make what seemed like pancakes.
"Making breakfast." She smiled.
"Okay." He loved her for trying. He kissed her. "You don't need to cook, I love you anyway."
"Chris called." The words slipped from her mouth. Nathan frowned. "There is this record company, they want me to make an album. Nathan, I love you, just say the word and I won't do it."
Nathan looked at Haley. "Don't do it."
Jake made his way to his locker.
"Hey man!" Skillz greeted him.
"Hey."
"So, how are things going with your shorty? I haven't seen much of either of you lately, you two hiding out?"
Jake gave a small laugh.
"Hey there big daddy!" Brooke appeared behind Jake. She gave him a kiss, which took Jake by surprise since they were in public.
"Well, speak of the devil." Skillz said.
"Actually Skillz, I was only the devil for Halloween." She smiled.
Peyton approached Lucas at his locker.
"Hey Luke." Peyton said shyly.
"Hey." Lucas looked at her surprised.
She grabbed him and kissed him.
"If this is wrong, baby, I don't want to be right." Peyton said before she kissed him again.
Brooke walked to Haley in the hallway.
"Hey buddy."
"Hey Tig."
"What's up Haley?" Brooke asked noticing Haley seemed really sad.
"Chris called. This record company wants me to make an album." She replied sadly.
"Well, that's good then, right? Except for the Chris part." Brooke didn't understand.
"Nathan doesn't want me to go. And I know I shouldn't go but," Haley paused. "I love the music, Brooke."
Brooke hugged Haley.
Practice was just about to start in the gym.
Lucas arrived with Peyton. Haley arrived with Bevin and some of the other girls. Rachel was accompanied by Mouth. Nathan arrived with Tim. Brooke and Jake arrived holding hands shortly after.
"Well, Well, The Ravens have arrived." Whitey entered the room. "Well, this was the principle's idea, not mine! He seems to think that this will give you all some sort of unity."
"Unity?" Tim asked.
"Yeah, echo boy, unity" Whitey replied. "Anyway, I'm going to split you all into groups of two.You have to learn something from them by the end of next week, and that means something you don't already know!"
"Wait! You're picking our groups?" Tim asked.
"That's what I said." Whitey replied lookingannoyed. "Okay, Peyton and Bevin. Jake andNathan. Mouth and Rachel. Haley and Tim..." Whitey went on naming people. "Okay, I guess that leaves you two." He looked at Brooke and Lucas who had yet to be put into a group.Brooke protested."NO TRADES! We won't be having practice until you all learn from each other, so learn fast!" Whitey left the gym.
"Peyton, we are going to haveso much fun!" Bevin replied as she hugged Peyton.
"This is great!" Rachel replied. She smiled at Mouth, her new partner.
"Speak for yourself." Haley replied as she watched Tim, who looked as lost as ever.
"Works for us." Nathan answered looking at Jake. Jake looked at Brooke, she didn't look happy at all.
"Well, I'd rather have Dim." Brooke said getting up.
Tim took this as his chance. "Well, my lady, if you still want a piece of the Tim man, here I am baby, here... I... AM." He licked his lips.
"Okay EWW!" Brooke looked at him disgusted.
