Brooke woke up the next morning with a sick feeling in her stomach. She rolled over and almost fell off the bed when she screamed in shock.

"Morning sunshine," Peyton said, and smiled in a sarcastic tone.

"Peyton… what the hell?" Brooke looked around confused, taking in her surroundings. She was still wearing her clothes from the previous day, and she had woken up in Peyton's bed.

"You don't remember do you?" Brooke's blank stare said it all. "You where upset last night. I got home about one thirty-ish and to my surprise I saw a Brooke and a half empty bottle of Vodka both on my bedroom floor. You wanna tell me what's going on Brooke?" Peyton sat up on her bed and leaned against the wall behind her. Brooke did the same.

"I went over to Nathan's last night. He kissed me," she grumbled.

"Oh my god Brooke that's great!"

"No it's not, it's terrible," Brooke groaned.

"Why?" Peyton was kinda lost in this now.

"Because I'm going out with Lucas on Saturday... or... tomorrow," Brooke said sheepishly.

"What! But I thought you liked Nathan?" Peyton questioned.

"I do,"

Peyton was getting frustrated. "God, please explain, this is giving me a headache,"

"Hey I'm the one with the hangover here," Brooke stated pointing to her head that was currently throbbing with pain.

"Your own fault," Peyton said blankly. "Now, explain!"

"Okay… I went to Nathan's to tell him… you know… and my phone rang. It was Lucas. He said since I was busy on Friday if I would like to do anything on Saturday,"

"And you said yes?" Peyton was getting really confused.

"Well I panicked. I was pretty sure Nathan was going to reject me so when Lucas asked me out I just kinda said yes… I mean I don't want to have noboys that are friends by the end of this week," Brooke said dramatically.

"Do you want my advice?" Peyton asked.

"Last time I took your advice I wound up with a killer headache, a date and a ruined friendship. Nothing you have to say could make things worse… so go right ahead,"

"Brooke? Sweetie. It's Friday. You've got two days to decide who you like… and who you want to date… …," and with that Peyton got out of bed and walked into her closet.

Brooke lay back down and closed her eyes. She jumped in shock for the second time that morning when she felt something land on her face. She pulled it off and looked down. It was a red halter top and a pair of hipster jeans. She looked up at the end of the bed. Peyton stood there with a smile on her face.

"School. 20 minutes. I get the first shower," and she turned on her heel and headed into the bathroom.

Brooke groaned. This was going to be a long day!

"Morning mom," Lucas said cheerily as he grabbed a piece of toast out of the toaster and headed to the fridge.

"Morning. You seem happy this morning. This wouldn't happen to have anything to do with a certain other cheery person we know would it?" Karen asked taking a sip of her coffee and raising her eyebrows.

"Maybe," Lucas said mysterious smile. He buttered his toast and took a huge bite.

"Is this the same Cheery that you have a date with tomorrow?" Karen asked equally mysterious.

"Haley cannot keep her mouth shut can she?" Lucas shook his head.

Karen just smiled at her son's happiness. "You weren't going to tell me?"

"Mom it's just one date," Lucas said taking another piece of toast.

"Okay, if that's what you want me to think," Karen stood up and pushed her chair in. She grabbed her keys and handbag off the bench and smiled at Lucas. "You know it's not very often you're this happy Luke. Just… be careful. Love is dangerous," she walked forward and gave him a quick kiss on the cheek. "Love you, have a good day at school,"

"Love you too!" Lucas yelled after her.

As Peyton pulled her car into a parking spot out the front of Tree Hill High Brooke spotted Nathan sitting on a picnic bench not to far away from where they where they where parked.

"Oh my god! Peyt!" Brooke screamed.

"What!" Peyton questioned looking around.

Brooke tried to hide her face behind her school bag but Nathan had spotted Peyton's car… with her in it. He was headed that way. Brooke quickly got out of the car and glanced at Peyton who was looking very amused.

When Nathan had reached the car Brooke suddenly said "I've gotta go… do a thing," and walked off not looking back.

Peyton laughed. Nathan sighed. He was getting really sick of watching her walk away.

"Nathan and Brooke, sitting in a tree… K-I-S-S-I-N-G! First comes love," Peyton sing songed while laughing002E

"Well if I where you, I'd say first comes the talking… because I'm not getting very far right now. Did she tell you what happened?" Nathan asked. Peyton swung her bag over her shoulder and locked her car.

"Yeah uh… kinda messed up right?" she gave him a sympathetic smile.

Nathan shrugged. "Not really. I love her. It's as simple as that,"

Peyton smiled, for real this time. "You really do, don't you?" but she already knew the answer. "Look Nate, I love Brooke, and I want her to be happy, and I want you to be happy as well but… Lucas kind of likes Brooke and well… this is just so typical high school isn't it?"

Nathan just stood there. "Yeah. So… does she like me… or Lucas?" his voice got quieter during his last few words.

"I honestly do not know. She's just really confused right now. My advice? Wow I seem to be giving out a lot of that right now. Anyway, just talk to her. Figure out where she is at at the moment, and go from there… and don't mention anything about the Lucas thing okay? I'm not so sure she wanted you to know about that," Peyton stated, hoping she didn't just spill a secret.

"Yeah okay, thanks Peyton, we should do this more often," Nathan smiled.

"What? Discuss our relationships?"

"No, hang out," Nathan laughed and walked off.

"He's not as bad as everyone says," Peyton thought. But all thoughts where lost when she started walking towards the building and saw Jake.
