This is another short chapter, I'm sorry. I haven't updated in awhile because not as many people are reviewing…so if you are reading this please review!

"What did you say," Lucas said in a completely calm tone. He seemed to be in a state of shock.

"Um," There really was no way out of the statement I had just made. But I couldn't just say that and not give him proof.

"I'm really sorry, I didn't mean to say that. I should probably go." I hastily tried to get up and avoid the situation I had so carelessly put myself in.

"How do you know this," His tone had turned a bit icier and I immediately felt stupid. This wouldn't bring the two of us closer, it would only widen the gap. I tried to explain the scenario making Peyton looking pretty bad and just all-together leaving myself out of it. Lucas did his best to avoid Peyton until Wednesday came. And then all hell broke loose. Nathan, Haley and I stood behind a row of lockers and Lucas nonchalantly opened the door. It was even better than I could have imagined. Tim's pants were around his ankles and Peyton's shirt had been carelessly thrown off. They each turned with guilty faces at the sound of the door but Peyton's quickly turned to shock when she saw who it was.

"Lucas, I...um…" For the first time in her life Peyton Sawyer was speechless.

"Don't bother," Lucas cut her off. "We're done."

"Wait Lucas…" she called but had to run back and put her shirt on. By the time she got back Lucas was long gone. I slapped Haley and Nathan's hands. In just a short amount of time we had been able to take down Peyton Sawyer. And we weren't even close to being done.

"So did you get the note canceling the party?" I asked Bevin finding her a little after the Peyton incident.

"Yes," she said in that spacey tone that got on my every last nerve. During all this Lucas drama I had almost forgotten about this part of the plan. It was so intricate and long it was hard to keep up what I was doing.

"With everything that happened today its understandable," I had to make sure they didn't catch on to what I had done.

"I still don't understand why I was not invited." Anna whined. "It doesn't make sense."

"Well let's just forget about it. We don't want to upset Peyton anymore." I hope I sounded convincing. I don't know if they could see right through me. Our visit to check on Peyton was pretty much a waste. She wouldn't see anyone. When I got home I was exhausted. I was putting way too much time and effort into this. And for what? Destroying someone's life? That was the reason I had started this in the first place. These girls were mean to me and everyone else and I wanted revenge. But by my retaliation was I stooping to their level? Was I just as bad as Peyton Sawyer? I tried to tell myself no, but in the back of my mind I wasn't quite as sure. We would just have to wait and see.

"Hey can I talk to you for a sec," I pulled Lucas aside right before school started the next morning.

"Sure, what's up?" he asked after excusing himself from his friends.

"I just wanted to apologize again. I feel really bad how it happened. I honestly didn't mean to say that it just kind of came out. I just wanted to make sure things weren't going to be awkward between us." I don't even know how I come up with these things anymore.

"You don't have to apologize Brooke. I should be thanking you. If you hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known what an ass she was making of me. Don't worry about it. We're cool. Really." HE gave me one last reassuring smile before heading back to his friends. That was such a complicated relationship. I mean, I had never really thought about the fact that there was a thin line between love and hate. But in the case of the two of us, I understand completely. One minute I'm in love with Lucas, the next I want to kill him. And now…well I don't even know how I feel about him anymore.

"Hey Brooke, we have a table over here." Haley called out.

I smiled apologetically. "Can't sorry. I'm sitting with the Plastics today." I rolled my eyes but continued grinning. It was cool to think that the popular people wanted me to sit with them even though I was planning on taking them down.

"Oh okay." Her smile faltered. "Have fun." I walked away not catching the end of what she said. Oh well, couldn't have been that important.

There will definitely be some naley next….review!
