Next Morning.

Peyton woke up as the bright light filled her room. She had sent Brooke away after telling her ok. Yeah she wanted to give Brooke a chance but having Brooke stay in her room on her wedding night, just didn't seem right.

Peyton rolled over and opened her eyes and to her surprise she saw Nathan sitting in the chair across from her with a loving smile on his face.

"Hi, sleeping beauty," he said sweetly.

"Hi," she said with a slight blush as she sat up in bed. She looked at Nathan for a few minutes not saying anything.

"So...this isn't awkward or anything," he said with a slight laugh trying to break the awkwardness that had fallen on the room. Peyton smiled and nodded.

"Where do we go from here?" She asked sounding like a lost little girl.

Nathan shrugged and then answered. "That all really depends on you I guess."

"Whyyyy?" Peyton said scrunching up her nose.

"Because no long lost flame of mine confessed love. But someone happened to do that to you. I guess you have to decide if you want to give her another chance or not." He said with a sad smile.

Peyton looked down. "I don't want to have to pick, Nathan not like this. I love you so so much. But I can't not . . . "

"I figured you'd say that. You've always loved her. But Peyton, listen to me," he said making his way toward her and sitting on the bed next to her, "you're not having to pick. I will always be here for you. No matter what."

"Thanks Nate." She said with a small smile. "But what are we going to tell everyone?"

"I figure that we'll tell them that we had a great time on our honeymoon. That we're happy as ever and if the time comes when you decide that you're 100 sure that you want Brooke and not me then we'll explain it all then. We've already got a nice place in Tree Hill. The house is big. It shouldn't be that hard."

"You'd do that for me?" She asked not able to believe her ears.

"When I say I love you Peyton, I mean it. I'd do anything to make you happy."

"Thank you so much," she said falling into his arms hanging on for dear life. "Thank you so so much." She kept repeating this as he sat and held her.

3 weeks later.

Peyton and Nathan walked into their house after just getting back from their trip. They were both happy and relaxed. They had spent the past 3 weeks doing their best not to think of the disaster that was their wedding. However as soon as they walked through their door Peyton's cell rang.

Nathan looked over at her questioningly as she pulled the small phone out of her pocket. She looked up at him and mouthed 'Brooke.' Nathan's smile fell as he turned to walk to his room.

"Hey you." Peyton said when she answered the phone.

"Hi," Brooke said with a hint of shyness. "What's up?"

"I actually just walked in from the airport. You?" Peyton asked as she plopped on the couch.

"Freaky timing then huh? And nothing really. Just thinking about you, which sounds really very cheesy."

"It's actually kinda cute," Peyton said biting her lip shyly, even though Brooke wasn't there to see her.

"So...what now?" Brooke said wanting to get right to the point.

"I think that you should come over so we can talk."

"Yeah ok. So I'll be at your apartment in like 10. Ok?" Brooke said already making her way toward the door.

"Um Brooke . . . I'm not at my apartment." Peyton said hesitantly.

"Then where are you?" Brooke asked obviously confused.

"I'm at mine and Nate's house." Peyton said with a sigh.

"Oh . . . Then I'll be there in like 5 minutes then."

"Alright see ya then."

"Yeah" Brooke said hanging up as a silent tear rolled down her face. She's ending it with me before we even start.

Ok so there we go. Just for knowledge sake...Peyton hasn't talked to Brooke since the night of her wedding. Let me know what you think.
