Here's the next chapter of my really awesome story…
CHAPTER 12
Peyton had a free period so she decided to wander around the halls of Tree Hill High.
While she was walking she heard a noise, so she decided to see where it was coming from.
The noise was coming from a classroom that Peyton hasn't been to yet so, curiosity getting the better of her, she decided to open the door and walk in to find a guy singing along to his guitar, too bad the door slammed shut behind her causing the guy to stop what he was doing to look up at her.
"Uh...hi," Peyton said nervously.
"Hi," the guy laughed.
"I'm sorry that I just barged in," Peyton said quickly.
"It's okay, I actually enjoy an audience," they guy smiled as he put his giutar down and walked over to Peyton.
"That's good to know," Peyton smiled as she stuck her hand out towards him. "My name is Peyton Sawyer."
"Chris. Chris Keller," he said as he shook her hand.
--------------
"Jake this sucks!" Lucas exclaimed.
"I don't see what's so bad about it," Jake shrugged.
"Dude look at it!" Lucas said as he pointed to his forehead.
He and Jake were currently in an art class, but art was the last thing on Lucas Scott's mind, he was more concerned with the so called 'third eye' on his forehead.
"You can't even see it Luke," Jake said calmly. "What is up with you?"
"Nothing...I guess I'm nervous about seeing Taylor," Lucas admitted.
"You're gonna be fine," Jake told him. "But you have to calm down."
"I know..." Lucas sighed.
"Look just don't worry about it, concentrate on something else," Jake said.
"Like what?" Lucas asked.
"How about molding something out of this stupid clay," Jake said as he tried to squeeze the hard substance that dried during his conversation with Lucas.
"Oh yeah," Lucas said as he remembered that they were actually suppose to do something in this class.
He looked down at the lump of clay on his desk and sighed.
What the hell was he suppose to make?
---------------
Haley and Brooke were sitting on the bleachers watching the basketball team practice. They were suppose to have cheer practice as well but they were too lazy...talk about school spirit.
Either way Brook and Haley were talking and watching, and Brooke had come to realize how much she missed this.
"Hey so what are you up to today?" Brooke asked as she turned to look at Haley.
"I'm just gonna go to Jake's, I figured I'll leave Taylor to Lucas tonight," Haley said.
Brooke nodded.
"What about you?" Haley asked.
"I don't know yet, I was gonna hang out with Nathan, but he said he needed tutoring," Brooke shrugged.
"You should hang out with Peyton," Haley suggested.
Brooke scoffed. "Yeah right."
Haley raised an eyebrow at Brooke's actions.
"You don't like Peyton do you?" Haley asked knowingly.
"Uh..." Brooke racked her brain for good enough answer.
"Brooke," Haley warned.
"Fine! I don't like her," Brooke relented.
"Why not?" Haley asked.
"She just...doesn't rub me the right way," Brooke said simply.
"I thought that was Nathan's job," Haley joked as she wiggled her eyebrows.
"Haley!" Brooke exclaimed as she hit her playfully, she was honestly surprised that Haley was okay with her relationship with Nathan, but she was glad.
Everything was great.
She just hoped that it stayed that way.
--------------
"Thanks for letting me hear you for a while Chris," Peyton said.
"No problem," Chris said.
"Well I should get going I promised my friend that I would meet up with her," Peyton said.
"Okay sure, but let me give you my number just in case you want to talk music," Chris said.
"Okay," Peyton agreed as she handed him her phone and he handed her his and they put their numbers.
They handed back each other's phones.
"I'll be seeing you Peyton," Chris said with a smile.
"Yeah...bye Chris," Peyton smiled back as she walked out of the classroom and into the hallways.
She couldn't believe how charming Chris was, he was cute too.
Looks like not all the hotties are taken...well atleast not yet.
"Hey I'm gonna go, I'm meeting up with Peyton," Haley told Brooke.
Brooke rolled her eyes discreetly.
"Okay, I need to talk to Nate anyways, I guess I'll see you tomorrow," Brooke smiled somewhat sadly, but Haley didn't catch it.
"Yeah tomorrow," Haley nodded as she walked away.
Brooke watched her and turned to walk towards the boys locker rooms.
Just as she neared them Nathan walked out.
"Nate!" Brooke exclaimed to get his attention.
"Hey!" Nathan exclaimed as he walked towards her with a smile.
"So I'm sorry about leaving you alone today," Nathan said.
"It's okay Nathan," Brooke smiled.
"No it's not...everything is finally okay with you and Haley, we should be celebrating, but instead I'm gonna get tutored because I'm too stupid to keep a C-average," Nathan said sadly.
Brooke grabbed his face with both her hands.
"Hey you are not stupid," Brooke said firmly. "You're just lazy."
"Gee thanks," Nathan said sarcastically.
"Hey I'm just saying that you don't like to put your energy into any school subjects," Brooke said as she gave him a quick peck on the lips.
"Well when you put it that way..." Nathan said as he leaned down to capture her lips once again.
Their tongues collided happily and Brooke let out a low moan.
Nathan bent down slightly, without breaking their lip contact, and put his hands on each of her thighs.
He lifted her up, and Brooke wrapped her legs around his waist.
They would have kept going at it if it weren't for a loud cough that caused Nathan to put Brooke down quickly and turn to glare at whoever it was that interrupted them.
"What do you want?" Nathan asked angrily.
"Nathan be nice," Brooke warned as she started walking away.
Nathan watched her and when she was out of sight he let out a frustrated sigh and looked up when they guy started to talk.
"I'm sorry that I interrupted, but you are Nathan Scott right?" the guy asked.
"Yeah, what's it to you?" Nathan said rudely.
"I'm Chase...I'm your tutor," he explained.
"Oh," Nathan said dumbly. "Sorry...I guess."
"It's fine, but uh...what time do you want to start?" Chase asked going straight to the point.
"Right now, but I just need to talk to somebody first, you can come if you want," Nathan said as he started walking.
Chase decided to follow him, seeing no other choice.
--------------
"Hey I'm gonna get out of here, probably go to the Rivercourt, wanna come?" Lucas asked.
"Nah it's okay, I'm just gonna find Haley, then we're gonna go to my house," Jake said.
They said their goodbye's and Jake set out to find Haley.
He couldn't wait to go home today.
--------------
"No way!" Haley exclaimed.
"It's true!" Peyton said. "He just told me he was gonna call to talk music."
"Really? And is 'music' code for something?" Haley asked playfully.
Peyton laughed as she shoved her.
"I'm just saying, that this 'music talk' could actually be a booty call," Haley laughed.
"You've been around Lucas for too long, he's rotting your brain," Peyton told her. "That's probably the reason you have such a short attention span."
"I do not...hey look there's Jake!" Haley exclaimed happily.
Peyton rolled her eyes.
"Just go with Jake before I go crazy," Peyton said.
"Okay," Haley agreed quickly and ran towards Jake.
Peyton watched as Haley hugged Jake, then dragged him to his car energetically.
She shook her head in amusement as Jake practically skidded out of the school parking lot.
I wonder why their in such a hurry, Peyton thought.
She lost all thoughts when she saw Nathan walking up to her with a cute guy right behind him.
"Hey your Peyton right?" Nathan asked.
Peyton nodded.
"Have you seen Haley? I kinda wanted to talk to her," Nathan said.
"Sorry she just left with Jake," Peyton said and she looked behind him and smiled at Chase and Chase smiled back somewhat shyly.
Nathan noticed thier exchange and rolled his eyes.
"Chase this is Peyton, Peyton this is Chase," Nathan said half-heartedly.
"Nice to meet you Chase," Peyton said as she shook his hand.
"You too Peyton," Chase said nicely, but then he looked and saw Nathan's annoyed look. "Listen sorry to cut this short, but I need to tutor Nathan right now."
"Really?" Peyton asked surprised.
"Yes really, can we go now?" Nathan asked impatiently.
"See you later Peyton," Chase smiled.
"Bye Chase," Peyton said.
They continued to stare at each other dreamily, which caused Nathan to roll his eyes, yet again, and pull Chase away, towards the tutoring center.
Peyton laughed and started walking the other way.
Can things get any better? Peyton thought.
But then she stopped as a figure caught her eye.
I guess they can, she thought with a smile.
"Are you just gonna stand there or are you gonna come give me a hug blondie," the figure spoke as he neared her.
"Oh my god, it's so good to see you Felix," Peyton said as she hugged him.
--------------
"So we're here," Jake said as he turned off the car.
"Yeah," Haley said nervously.
"Are you sure you want to do this?" Jake asked.
Haley took a deep breathe. "Of course."
She stepped out of the car and stood at his doorstep.
"You coming or what?" she yelled.
"Coming darling!" Jake said playfully.
He walked up to her and gave her a soft kiss, then he opened the door, and they walked in, Haley closing the door behind her.
"The bedroom is this way," Jake said as he took her hand.
They both walked into his bedroom, and Jake closed the door behind him.
--------------
Lucas was sitting on the bench at the Rivercourt, staring out at the water.
He couldn't believe how this year was turning out.
It started out with Haley and Nathan, being happily together, and now Brooke and Nathan were the happy couple, along with Jake and Haley.
And then with Peyton coming to Tree Hill, he made a new friend.
Things were definitely getting better, but Lucas was still alone.
So was Peyton, and Lucas thought about asking her out for a split second, but he can't now, they have come to form a brother/sister bond in the two days that they have known each other.
Plus he never did stop loving Taylor...
His thoughts were interrupted by a soft voice behind him.
"Hey handsome."
Lucas turned around quickly, almost too quickly and he slipped off the table and onto the ground.
"Hey are you okay?"
Lucas looked up groggily.
"Taylor?"
