Brooke's POV
I sat looking into the night and down at the the waves splashing against the sand replaying the events of the night over and over again in my mind at a figure walked up to me from off in the distance.
"Brooke, what are you doing out here? Its freezing."
I look up to see my curly blonde friend looking at me with a puzzled expression across her face.
"I just needed some time alone, well you two love birds get reacquainted." I gave her a faint smile which she could easy see through.
"Seriously Brooke. Who was at the door that's got you so sad?" I looked away and she could tell right than.
"Lucas." She sat down beside me in the sand and pulled me in for a hug.
"Oh B. Dont let him get you down. Your Brooke Davis my cheery best friend and he's not worth that."
I shook my head at her. "But Peyton he is worth it and you know that."
"Okay wrong choice of words, but you know what I'm saying." I just nodded and decided to change the subject.
"So bestest friend, whats going on with you and boy toy?" I gave her a Brooke Davis smirk.
She rolled her eyes and hit me. "Nothing." She turned from me so I couldn't see the smile on her face but I could totally read her and knew she was lieing.
"Dont nothing me. Peyton Elizabeth Sawyer we have been best friend since like the beginning of time, I can read you like a book, so I will ask again. Bestest friend what is going on with Nathan Scott and you?"
A smile form across her as I gave her my speak. "Well you can ask him yourself seeing as were going to be staying at the beach house."
"Wait, what?" It felt like my eyes were going to fall out of my head I was so shocked how well this was working out.
"And we kissed." She mumbled it so quietly I could barely hear but I did. Now my jaw was dropping.
"You what? P.Sawyer I'm so happy this is working out for you. You deserve to be happy." I grabbed her in for a hug and she whispered in my ear.
"So do you B.Davis and it was nothing I dont even think he fells the same." we both pulled away at the same time and i held her shoulders and looked her in the eye.
"Well P. You guys are Nathan and Peyton. The superstar basketball player and the tortured artist. You guys are meant to be, everyone's known that since high school. Its just one of those things. Now we better go get Nate to take us to the hotel and get our luggage so we can have an awkward night before our big day ahead." We started back to the beach house when she turned to me one last time.
"Are you going to be okay tomorrow?"
I just nodded. " I have to be."
Nathans POV
I was trying to focus on the road but all I could think about was the green eyed girl sitting next to me in the passenger seat of my car. We along with a satisfied Brooke sitting in the back seat were on the way to the hotel Brooke and Peyton would be staying at before I offered for them to stay with me at the beach house. The car ride was for the most part quiet expect for Brooke humming to the radio. We arrived at the hotel got the luggage payed for the first night and were now heading back to the house. Peyton finally spoke for the first time since we had got in the car to go to the hotel.
"Nate, thanks again for letting us stay." I turned to her with a smile on my face.
"It's no problem at all you guys are always welcome." She returned the smile and our eyes locked on each other for what seemed like an hour, until Brooke snapped us outta our daze.
"Okay you two enough with the feelings hidden by small talk and help me with my bags." I could feel my face turning red as I jumped out of the car and grabbed one of which I guessed to be one of Brooke's bags seeing as it was pink and weighted about 90 pounds.
After we had gotten all the luggage in the house had settled in we were all exhausted and knew tomorrow was going to be a long day so we awkwardly all said our good nights and headed for bed.
I layed in bed tossing and turning with the girl down the hall on my mind. After 2 hours of trying to get her outta my mind and getting a little bit of sleep I couldn't take it anymore, I threw back the covers and headed to the kitchen for some water. Walking down the stairs I noticed a light coming from the kitchen and knew one of the girls was up. As I got closer I could tell who it was.
"Couldn't sleep either." I must of scared her, because she jumped when I spoke and spun around almost falling over as I caught her and turned her to see her with a look of pure shock.
"Oh god Nate, you scared the shit outta me. Ya Brooke is tossing and turning and threw me off the bed but I cant blame her we all know tomorrow will be a hard day for her." I grabbed some water and leaned against the counter next to her.
"Its gunna be a hard day for all of us. You know if Brooke pushing you off the bed you can take my bed I'll just sleep on the couch." She turned to me with those big green eyes sparkling in the moon light that shinned through the kitchen.
"No Nate, I couldn't do that to you. I'll be fine." I shrugged.
"We'll we could share my bed, its not like we haven't before." I looked over at her giving my famous Nathan Scott smirk and noticed she was blushing and Peyton Sawyer never blushes.
"Why not." She rolled her eyes and let out a small laughed. God I love her laugh.
We put everything away and made our way back up to bed. I climbed in beside her and she turned to me with her glossy emerald eyes.
"Again thanks for everything Nate. Everything you've done for me and Brooke since we got back to town. It just I know we didn't really talk when we left and I'm sorry and I guess what I'm trying to say is your a really great guy Nathan."
"Peyt. Its a two way street I know I didn't really call you ever either and I'm sorry. I was just so caught up in my own thing." She put her finger over my lips.
"Like you said its a two way street and I know when you and Haley got back together in high school we didn't talk much but we've always been good friends and than I come back here and we haven't really talked and I just go kissing you without knowing anything and I just-"
"You know you and Brooke are so much alike. You both ramble on way to much." I leaned down so we were both at eye level and pressed my lips against hers. She went to deepen it but than instantly pulled away.
"So I've been told, but Nate this is what I'm talking about we dont even know each other anymore. We haven't seen or talked to each other for 4 years and here we are the night I get back into town and were kissing."
"I'm sorry Peyton, I guess I'm just trying to live in the past and now-" Now she was interrupting me.
"Dont be sorry." A smile formed on her face as she looked right into my eyes. We made full eye contact and I was lost in her eyes. "I'm just saying lets start by getting to know each other again before we start kissing again and figure out what this means."
I cupped her face as I began to talk. I knew this was moving way to fast as she had just got back into town a few hours ago but it didn't matter we were never conventional we had always moved at our own pace.
"We'll after high school I went to duke played college ball. Now I play for the Charlotte bobcats. After my dad went to prison he gave me the beach house, my mom is out of rehab and lives across town we talk every so often and I am a divorced twenty two year old with a dead son and a ex-wife who blames me. You turn." My hand still on her cheek as her eyes are still locked on mine.
"Well after my internship they hired me full time which I thought would be great until I realized the only way to get anywhere there is to unbutton your shirt but I stayed there anyways. Brooke and I shared an apartment in L.A well she got her clothing company going but was never there with all the traveling she had to do. Lucas and I broke up as you know. Our hearts just were into it. I guess I gave my heart away a long time ago to someone else and that's why I came home." I was shocked by her last sentence I didn't think she felt the same way and I didn't know what to do or say so I did the only thing I could think of I pushed away one of her curls from her face leaned down and caught her lips with mine. This time it was different though she didn't pull away only deepened it.
Peyton's POV:
I felt like this was all a dream the last 24 hours of my life. Here I was laying in Nathan Scotts bed making out with him after we had just seen each other for the first time in years only hours ago. He kissed down my neck and coller bone as I rolled on top of him and started kissing down his jaw to his neck and across his chest paying extra attention to his nipple ring which was a huge turn on.
We continued kissing when he lifted me up and pulled off my shirt. He started kissing my chest and sucking on my nipple as I was nibbling on his ear lope and whispering in his ear which I could tell he was enjoying by the newly formed bulge in his pants. It was all going so well until I could hear coming down the hall
"Peyton."
"P."
"P.Sawyer."
"PEYTON ELIZABETH SAWYER. Where the hell are you?" I knew Brooke was searching the house for me so I jumped of the bed threw on my shirt and darted out the door hoping I wouldn't bump into her. Just my luck there she was right in front and me with a smug look plastered across her face.
"Whatcha doing?" Her eyes never leaving me. I instantly felt embarrassed and felt my cheeks getting hot as devilish looking Nathan soon opened the door and was now joining us in the hall all in an awkward moment.
"We'll you kept pushing me off the bed so Nathan said I could have his bed." She raised an eyebrow knowing it was more than sleeping.
"Okay if that's your story. Well boy toy, Peyt here and I need to get ready for the day ahead of us as do you so I suggest we get moving." With that she grabbed my hand and lead me to the spare bedroom leaving Nathan with a boyish grin and a bulge in his pants.
After 2 hours and 15 minutes getting ready, trying to cover the marks Lindsay left on my face and trying push Brooke out the door. We were all in Nathans car on the way to the church.
"So is my little Peyton here your date for this thing or what?" Brooke chimed in. As I could feel my cheeks getting hot again I turned around and shot Brooke a look as she returned a wink at me.
"We'll I'm more of a two lady man." Nathan shot us a smirk in which I smacked his arm.
"Sorry ego boy I'm going stag I need to be free in case I meet a hot young barboy there, but sawyer here is free." She winked at me and this time I smacked her arm.
"Well I guess in that case are you going to be my date Peyt?" he looked over at me still with the famous Scott smirk as I rolled my eyes.
"Why not." Brooke satisfied with the out come turned and stared out the window as Nate reached over and squeezed my hand as I smile at him and got lost in my thoughts.
(I'm sorry there wasn't alot of Brooke/Lucas interaction but I promise there will be next chapter. I hope you guys enjoyed it and please review.
