Around 12:30p.m., Brooke called Peyton and told her to meet her at the beach. Half an hour later, Brooke sat in front of the water when she saw Peyton sit down next to her. They sat in silence for a few minutes.

"Peyton, you are my best friend. I am just super pissed at you right now. Hales is very sad that her friend is being so mean," Brooke said to the blond beside her. Peyton sighed.

"I know. I just feel that she abandoned me when she left," Peyton said.

"Last night, after we found her, I was driving back home with Haley in the backseat asleep. All of a sudden she starts crying out for a friend. You may not know this, but she is hurting too, Peyt. Probably just as much as you and Nate are," Brooke told the girl beside her, her eyes still fixated on the water.

"I know," came a quiet response.

"You two need to talk. Work it out," Brooke said standing up, offering her hand to her friend. Peyton sighed and nodded.

"I will, Brooke. I will," she told the brunette as thy walked back to their cars. Peyton called Lucas with a plan. He would bring Haley to the Rivercourt tomorrow and say he needed to get something. Peyton would walk up behind her and hopefully, they would talk. Little did she know that Lucas had just yelled at Nathan for the same reasons Brooke had said to her.

After yelling at Peyton, Lucas agreed to the plan. Today at 4:00p.m, he would bring Haley down to the Rivercourt and Peyton would talk to her. At exactly 4 o'clock, Lucas and Haley walked down to the Rivercourt.

"Hey Hales, I need to go get the ball ok? I'll be right back," Luke said then walked back to his car. He called Peyton and then drove off.

Haley sat by the water. She felt a hand on her shoulder and turned around to find Peyton. She sat down beside her while Haley looked down in fright. Unfortunately, Peyton saw the look and guilt passed through her.

A/N: Here is chapter 3. It is short I know, but bare with me here people. Next chapter, Peyton and Haley talk.
