Whose Getting Married?
Peyton carted a few boxes full of porcelain plates and Tupperware into their new cozy apartment; Jake was hooking up all of their old appliances with an addition of a few new ones while Jenny hung out with Ashley at Nate's house for the weekend while they unpacked.
Peyton passed Jake with a box and they exchanged cute cheeky little smiles,
"Peyt"
"Mm" Peyton mumbled licking the whit fluffy cream from her doughnut off her fingers, Jake smiled at her and Peyton gave a confused expression "what are you so smiley about baby boy" Jake hugged Peyton in the protective way she missed
"We are finally happy" Peyton nuzzled into his shoulder
"Yeah" She softly muttered smiling into Jake's chest to herself while Jake smiled to himself with his head rested on top of hers
"Jenny had grown up so fast we need to slow down" Jake said breaking the hug and holding Peyton's hands to his chest "Let get married" Peyton let out a laugh
"Marriage wow we are taking it slow cutie"
"No seriously I want to marry you, have more kids, buy a bigger house and big SUV to fill with screaming children that bicker of the stupidest things" Peyton smiled and dove into a kiss with Jake
"Lets do it" She muttered in between breathes
"Yeah" Jake rested his forehead on hers
"Yeah" Jake pickled Peyton up and started to spin her around the room as she giggled intensely.
Interrupting their happy moment was a screaming Jenny who came tearing into the kitchen and out the other side followed by a giggling Ashley. Haley walked into the room and gave the couple an odd look as Jake put Peyton down
"Why do you two look like you just got sprung" Haley questioned as she pulled up a chair and sat down
"Because we did" Peyton muttered chirpily
"What?" Haley asked
"Well" Jake started looking at Haley who gave him the nod "We are getting married" Jake said holding Peyton's hand
"Wow you guys" Haley stood up and hugged both the happy couple so tight that Jake felt reasonably uncomfortable
"Yeah we are very happy" Peyton said reassuring Haley whom Brooke had informed of their past troubles
"Then I am happy for you two too" Hales paused "does that even make sense?" Peyton and her both laughed while Peyton brewed a coffee and Jake got back to unpacking a few more bits and pieces creating their once blank canvas into a palace.
"Mum" Ashley screamed from outside, Haley came tearing outside at the shrill scream of her daughter
"What sweetie" she tried to get out of her huffing and puffing voice
"Dads here with Uncle Luke and Aunty Brooke"
"Oh" Haley said standing upright and straightened her clothes
"Hey babe" Nathan greeted Haley with a peck on the cheek and proceeded to pick up Ashley and spin her around
"Hey" Haley muttered as he had already moved on to everyone else
"Hey Hales" Brooke greeted Hales with a kiss on the cheek followed by Luke whom received a cheeky smiled form Hales
"What?"
"Nothing"
"What? Hales I know you better than this"
"Well I'll let Peyton tell you"
"What"
"Oh I can't wait they are getting married but shh"
"Whose getting married" Brooke questioned excitedly as she hugged Luke
"Shh B I wasn't supposed to tell"
"Well you shouldn't say it in ear shot of me"
"Whatever" Haley hit Brooke playfully as Luke pulled Brook inside followed by Haley
"Peyton" Luke whispered into her ear as he cuddled her in Jake and Peyton's new living room
"What" Brooke bellowed turning to face Luke's chest
"Shh miss. Bubbly"
"Peyton" Brooke screamed as she ran off to find Peyton
"What... what" Peyton questioned scared by her over the top mood
"When were you going to tell me" Brooke tapped her foot heavily
"Ohh well we only just decided to"
"So a phone call would have helped" Peyton smiled "Who cares, congratulations" Brooke threw her arms around Peyton and rocked her side to side then finding Jake and doing the same thing.
Jake, Nathan and Luke all sat on the couch watching Luke's replay of his Friday night game which he brought his team to victory with a 3 pint jump shot that rolled around a few times and swished straight through the net meanwhile Peyton, Haley and Brooke cooked well Haley chopped carrots, Peyton marinated the chicken and Brooke sat giving Moral support to the two girl that were trying to do some string painting outside.
"So Jake" Nathan interrupted
"Yeah" Jake faced Nathan with a confused look
"You and Peyt"
"Dude it was inevitable" Luke interrupted
"Shut up Luke I'm trying to be like a big bro"
"Too late they already have a kid" Jake laughed sipping at his beer while Nathan looked back at the TV sulkily.
"Dinner's ready" Brooke called from the kitchen, the boys almost immediately entered the room
"Mm something smells good" Luke said "Pizza?"
"Yeah cooking kind of sucked"
"I'm not complaining" The girls giggled as everyone grabbed a slice of pizza discussing wedding plans, children, life goals and high school. Amazingly enough they always learnt new things about each other at their weekly or monthly discussions usually involving some for of takeaway, a few beers and game of football or b-ball.
