The following day at school every one had heard about the dance, and all very excited. Nathan and Jake were the most excited, they had put up banners and flyers, inviting everyone to come.
"Hey Hales"
"Hey Nathan what's up?"
"Um… nothing really, did you hear about the dance?"
"Yea, sounds fun, I can't wait"
"I was wondering would you maybe want to go with me?" Nathan asked silently.
"Sure, sounds great"
"Really?"
"Absolutely"
"Great, well I got to go; I'll see you in lunch
"Yup, see you then" Haley said as she left to go to class.
"Jake, Jake, guess what guess what?" Nathan said franticly.
"What?"
"Haley said she would go to the dance with me isn't that great!"
"Fantastic"
"Oh my God what am I going to wear?"
"How about a cute little dress" Jake teased
"Very funny, I can't believe that the dance is on Friday. Lucas doesn't suspect a thing"
"I know, I can't wait to see his reaction, when I tell him this is all for him. I'm just glad we could do something to help"
"Yea me too, well I got to go see you in lunch"
"Yup"
At Lunch
"Hey Hales"
"Hey Nate, Jake"
"Hey, where is Peyton?" Jake asked.
"She had to take a quiz, looks like it's just us three today" Haley said.
"Yea, I can't wait for this dance" Jake said
"Me neither" said Haley with a smile on her face, which Nathan saw and smiled.
"Oh would you two just go out already" Jake said seeing the two smiles
"JAKE" Nathan yelled. "I'm sorry Haley"
"It's okay"
Then Nathan got up to get food
"You like him don't you" Jake asked
"Is it that obvious?"
"He likes you too, you know"
"Really, yea but you didn't hear it from me"
The rest of the week went by quickly and everyone was excited about the dance. Jake had finally asked Peyton to the dance. . After school Thursday, Jake and Nathan hung out and played hoops with Luke and Skillz. It was Luke and Skillz vs. Nathan and Jake, Luke and Skillz won, because Jake and Nate let them win. After the basketball game
"You guys going to the dance tomorrow" Jake asked
"Yea, I guess" Luke said sadly
"What's the matter" Nate asked
"Nothing"
"It will give you a chance to clear your mind; it will be great fun I promise… come over after school, at like six, that's when the girls are coming we will all go together" Jake said
"Sure, thanks" Luke said feeling a little better…
"Yup, we got to go see you tomorrow" Jake said
"Bye guys"
The next day everyone was talking about the dance, they knew it was going to be a blast, Jake was a little nervous about giving his speech he had prepared. He couldn't wait to see the turn out. After school the three brothers got ready to go when the girls arrived, Lucas feeling dateless.
"Its okay big brother we will find you someone" Jake said.
"Haley you look beautiful"
"Thanks Nathan, you don't look to bad yourself"
They all got to the dance. The room was decorated with beautiful decorations and streamers and banners.
"Wow" Haley said
"Yea wow" said Jake, as he saw the turn out
Dr. Konet got on the microphone.
"Okay, everyone let me introduce you to the two people who put this dance together. Nathan and Jake Scott:" Dr. Konet introduced them. Luke just stared there blankly
"Hi, I want to thank you all for coming, but this dance is something special. Okay as you may not know, my friend Lucas grew up without a father. About a couple of weeks ago, he found out that my father, Dan Scott, is also his father. His mother had told us that she wants Luke to live with us once she is gone. She then told us she is dying of lung cancer. So Nathan and I put our heads together, well just my head,( laughter) and I came up with this idea to hold a formal dance, and all the proceeds with go to help Luke's mother and her cancer. There will be a cash bar and different events throughout the night to help raise money. This night is for Luke, and his mother. We love you big brother" (applause) "Thank you guys and have a great night"
The boys stepped off the stage and went to hug Lucas.
"Thank you, I really appreciate it"
"Luke we want to help" just then Haley went up to Luke and hugged him.
"Thanks Haley"
As the night went on they all had a blast, they were dancing and having a great night.
"Hey Luke you want to dance?" Brooke said coming over to talk to Luke.
"Sure" Luke said just trying to enjoy the night.
"Haley, may I have this dance?"
"Of course" They left and started dancing to Dreaming of You by Selena.
Late
at night when all the world is sleeping
I'd stay up and think of
you
And I'd wish on a star
That somewhere you are thinking of
me too
Cuz I'm dreaming of you tonight
Till tomorrow,
I'll be holding you tight
And there's nowhere in the world I'd
rather be
Then here in my room,
Dreaming about you and me
They were dancing and having a good time, even Lucas. Luke and Brooke were dancing, Nathan and Haley, and Jake and Peyton. Then as Nathan and Haley slowly danced, they looked into each others eyes, and smiled as Nathan slowly made his way to Haley's lips. Then for the first time they kissed. It was a great kiss.
"Wow" Nathan said
"Yea, wow" Haley said, as they kissed again.
"This was the perfect dance, and I'm proud of you, doing this for your brother"
"Yea it was perfect. I got to spend it with you"
"Awe, thanks" as they kissed again
At the end of the night everyone was happy. They had raised over 3000 dollars to go to Karen. Suddenly Luke got up on stage.
"I just wanted to thank everyone for coming, and wanted to thank my two brothers,
Without them I wouldn't even be here tonight. Thank you guys so much, I love you. And everyone thanks again and enjoy the night." Luke said.
