The rain caused everyone to stay indoors today. The school was packed during lunch hour as the students and teachers huddled in the cafeteria and basically anywhere they could fit in the decent sized school. They tried their hardest to enforce a rule of students not being allowed to wander the halls during lunch, leaving only three places for the students to hang out: the gym, the cafeteria, and the library. Not big enough places to fit a total of five hundred students especially on days when the weather kept them in the confined facility.

Jill never liked the cafeteria, with all it's hormone commotion. She thought it was the biggest breeding ground for criticism. Everyone in their own little groups huddled together not letting anyone in. Nathan tried getting her to quit her bluster and just enter the lion's den but she wouldn't give, unless you count that one time she reached the door and then made a three sixty and u-turned her way out. One of the reasons was also because she didn't want to see Vegas. She knew he'd be there stuffing his shit face with all of his friends then making his way to the gym to burn his calories with a game of ball. She never stepped in the gym either. Whenever Nathan went to play basketball with Lucas she'd hang out with Peyton and Brooke far away.

This lunch, her and Nathan were in the library. That's where they could be found on days like this. Jill either worked on her homework or art, while Nathan worked on his own. He was getting the hang of homework and he actually enjoyed it. Whenever the two wanted to have a chat fest they'd go deep into the library stacks and sit in the paleontology section. No one ever went there, the books were practically corroding away, which made it a great spot for them to talk. They could blab away and the librarian wouldn't heckle them for making noise.

Today Brooke was with them and she didn't seem too happy. She was bored out of her mind. Out of all places to spend lunch it had to be in the library. Yeah it was cute watching Nathan and Jill flirt but for the love of them they needed to get together. For most parts she just stared at them. Partly because she didn't quite understand their humor and what they were talking about. The other part was because she was too busy figuring out whether they ever had any raunchy friend bootycalls. Come on, Nathan had his own cubby in her closet for crying out loud., they had to have.

"Guys I'm sooo bored. Can't we do something funner?" She couldn't keep her attention on booty calls all day.

Nathan and Jill looked at her for a second before shaking their heads. Nathan wasn't too pleased with Brooke's presence. She had been kind of annoying these past few days. Ever since Peyton and Lucas came out to her about their relationship, she seemed to hang around Jill and him an awful lot. Well more like Jill but since he was always with her he might as well include him self too. He only put up with Brooke because Jill did. She was too nice.

She had been whining ever since lunch started. The two sort of blocked her out of their conversation jokingly, only cause they knew it bugged her.

"Anyways Nathan," she laughed as Brooke playfully hit her, "I can't believe he went off on you like that. You'd think he'd be happy because you were thinking of maybe becoming something other than a ball player."

"Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. It surprised me yet it didn't you know. Not like anything out of Dan's mouth is anything good."

Brooke listened in on their talk.

"Are you talking about your stain of a father? If so you already know that man has his mind set on you becoming some big NBA star who'll lead whatever team you decide to play on or get drafted in, into the playoffs. He's had that set since we were like what eight?"

Nathan looked down.

"Yeah I know."

Jill looked at him concerned.

"Well so what if his mind is set on it. It's your choice in the end, not his."

"Yeah boy toy remember when he drove you to taking drugs, like come on typical driven father who pushes his son over the edge. He certainly doesn't win the father of the year award for that one."

The two looked at Brooke funny. She wasn't helping.

"Hey kids what's kickin?" The blonde bombshell known as Peyton took a seat at their table.

Brooke let out a sigh of relief. One because she wasn't with Lucas, and two because she no longer had to sit with the lovebirds alone.

"If it isn't my bestfriend who comes bearing good news with the up-coming club night. Give us the goods toots."

Peyton scrunched her face.

"About that. There isn't going to be one."

All three looked at her in disappointment. Mostly Brooke who was looking forward to a night of fun.

"How come?"

"This Friday Karen already had a gala planned. I tried rescheduling with the bands but they're all booked from oh let's say forever."

Jill looked sad.

"Even that cool garage band Losing Sanity?"

The blonde nodded her head. She was sad too.

"Oh well not to fear," Brooke said cheerfully. Her tone of voice went up, "we still have boy toy's costume jam on Halloween, which is a week too far but I'll survive."

Jill looked confused. She didn't know what they were talking about. Nathan never told her anything about a party.

"What party?"

"Boy toy throws a Halloween jam every year at his parents beach house and we get to dress up. Isn't that right boy toy?"

Nathan nodded to Brooke's reply.

"Yeah, but I wasn't going to have one this year."

Brooke looked like she was going to faint.

"You have to have that party. You always have that party. It's not a complete Halloween without your mixer."

"I don't know," he continued writing down some notes.

"Please oh please. I get annoying trust me, you might as well say yes now or else I'll never stop."

Peyton rolled her eyes.

"Just say yes so she can shut her yap."

The two girls playfully smacked each other.

"I don't know. I guess I'll have one if Jill goes."

Immediately Brooke pounced on Jill.

"Oh my god model girl you have to say yes. Pleeease."

Everyone cringed from Brooke's whining. It really was starting to get irritating.

"I don't know. I'm not really into that whole party scene thing."

"You've got to be kidding me," the brunette gasped, "this party is going to be great. Plus there'll be a ton of hot guys. Mmm I can already taste them."

Everyone's eyes widened in disgust.

Peyton did an upchuck motion for the heck of it.

"That was just gross Brooke," trying to shake the thought out of her mind, "you should go Jill it's cool."

"Mmm," she thought for a moment, "okay I guess so. It couldn't hurt right?"

Brooke jumped up.

"Right! It'll be hella fun," she looked over at Nathan who let the girls talk it out, "she said yes boy toy. So it's a go?"

He shrugged.

"She said yeah so I guess it's on."

"Good I have the perfect costume," she gave them a devious grin as she smirked.

All the three could do was laugh at her and and try to move on with a new converstion before she decided to tell them what she was planning on wearing next Monday.
