"I was out for a jog, when it started raining really hard, this is crazy eh?" he said, not noticing that she was crying.

"What are you doing out here? Weren't you suppose to come… Oh crap, are you crying?" Lucas said when he heard her sobs; he took her in his arms and looked down at her face.

"Here, we're close to your house, lets get out of this rain before we both die-…"

"Okay," she mumbled as they made their way to her house.

When they got in Lucas got her some coffee, "Now what's wrong Brooke?" he asked the curled up form of the girl on the couch. She wasn't crying anymore, she was hugging her knees and looking straight at nothing and everything, she seemed to be in a world of her own, looking depressed, and helpless.

"My feelings, my heart,"

"What do you mean?"

"Lucas, I don't want to get into it with you," she said gently.

Lucas was a bit hurt by this, but didn't show it, "Its alright," he said as she leaned her head on his shoulder and he put an arm around her. She had the cup of coffee in hand, not able to drink it, the scene she had just witnessed kept replaying in her mind.

"Oh shit Haley," Nathan said, as he pulled back.

"What's wrong?" she asked out of breath.

"That wasn't fair to you, it was wrong,"

"What's wrong about it? I love you,"

"But I don't love you anymore," Nathan whispered, shocked at what he had done, what he had done to Haley, he lead her on again, and what he did wasn't fair for her, he didn't love her.

"No Nathan, that wasn't wrong, that was me and you, Nathan and Haley, we belong together, what I did hurt you, and so you hurt me back by leaving me, but now we can be together,"

Haley tried pulling him into a kiss again, but he took her arms off him and got up, "Haley, can we please not get into this now?"

She got up, "Okay," she whispered sadly, as she turned to leave, but then turned around again, "I wont give up on us,"

Nathan ran his hands threw his hair, 'was he really that upset about what Lucas said, that he went back to Haley, just to feel…loved?

It had cleared outside, and the rain had stopped, so he stepped out.

Nathan started to jog, he really needed to clear his head, he regretted what he did, and what Haley said after that, she's his friend, and he keeps leading her on, making her hope for more, and he wasn't sure if he could give her more.

Some how, he jogged to Brooke's street. He did that often, he would look at the house and miss her, and remember how he hadn't come to see her off, thinking of Lucas getting there and making an impression on her made him frown.

'No, what Lucas said couldn't be true, Brooke hardly even hung out with Lucas anymore, she doesn't love him,'

Nathan walked closer the house, like he had done the day before, and the day before that. But this time there was something different.

There was a light on in the house.

'Maybe Brooke came back early,' Nathan thought, feeling better.

Nathan jogged up the house with a big smile on his face.

He walked up the window that had the light on, deciding to give her a scare, picking out a flower that was growing on the neighbor's lawn.

He grinned as he looked into the window, but his grin disappeared when he saw her in the arms of another man… Lucas!

Nathan couldn't believe the sight, it was Brooke leaning into him. Nathan felt the flower drop out of his hands.

He felt his heart drop too, 'What Lucas said was right, she did always love Lucas, and she always would.'

Nathan backed away from the window, he didn't know what to do, a part of him wanted to go in there, but he couldn't, he would look so dumb, and desperate, if Brooke doesn't care for him then he didn't care for her either.

Nathan knew that wasn't true, he didn't even know it, but had started to really liked Brooke.

Nathan sat at the curb. Not wanting to leave, but not wanting to go in either. It had started to rain again, and Nathan cursed his luck, he was soaking wet, he should go home, he kept telling himself.

A car zoomed by, seeming to be in a rush, and in that rush didn't notice how they splashed a puddle of mud on the road on the guy sitting at the curb.

Nathan swore after the car, as he got up dripping with muddy water. He started to walk away when he noticed the door opening so he quickly ran to the side of the house where he was hidden from the people on the porch.

Brooke and Lucas came out onto the porch, "It's raining like mad, you don't have to leave yet,"

"I know, but Haley called and it seems urgent, plus I like running in the rain," Lucas grinned.

"Thanks Lucas-…"

"No its-…"

"No Lucas, you are great honestly, your awesome, I really appreciated you being here with me this afternoon, you've always been there for me," she whispered to him as she hugged him close.

Nathan felt a pang in his heart, hearing her words hurt! As much as Nathan hated to admit it, it really hurt.

He pressed his back into the wall when he saw Lucas run by.

And held his breath until he heard the soft click signaling that Brooke had closed the door.

And then, he waiting for a minute, until he finally decided to leave, and he looked back at the house once, before he walked away, not knowing what to do to with his hurting heart…
