Ok so here is the new chapter! I won't be updating for awhile though, finals coming up! And I need to study for else its summer school for me!!!!

DISCLAIMER- I AM MARK! I AM THE CREATOR OF OTH…JUST KIDDING! OR AM I?

"So whats going on with Hot Shot? What's his story?" Izzie asked Rachel and Peyton while they were getting changed.

"He was married to our best friend," Peyton sighed sitting down. "She left him for Chris Keller and a music career. Twice. Now they are done and Nathan realizes he has feelings for Brooke."

"Damn…that is some Bold and Beautiful drama," Izzie laughed. "But seriously, do you think its just a rebound thing for Nathan?"

"I don't think so… but I also don't think Brooke will take that chance," Rachel said from the vanity mirror. "Brooke refuses to get hurt after what Lucas did."

Peyton sighed thinking about Lucas. She had thought she loved Lucas but now thinking back, he wasn't worth it. She tried to think of the guy she wanted to be with forever, and only one guy came to mind, Jake Jagelski. She missed him and wanted to be with him. She hated that she ruined things with him. "Lucas isn't a bad guy…he loves Brooke. He would do anything to make her happy."

"Well, I don't think Brooke should give him another chance," Izzie said stubbornly. "She and Nathan would be perfect together. He is crazy about her I can tell, but she is too scared to do anything."

"Who is crazy about whom?" Brooke asked coming into the room and sat down next to Peyton.

"Oh, Holly and Paul," Izzie said quickly.

"Well, Holly Golidly is right," Brooke said. "Love is like being caged."

The other girls sighed. They knew it wasn't going to be easy getting Brooke and Nathan together. Brooke cared about Nathan but she didn't think he was ready. They were afraid she was going to miss her chance.

"I'm gonna go get something to drink," Izzie stood up and went down stairs to find a sulking Nathan. "Why so glum, sugar plum?"

Nathan looked up at her, expecting to see Brooke because of that comment. He smiled at Izzie, "No reason…"

"Liar," she sat down next to him. "It's because of Brooke isn't it?"

"How did you…"

"I see the way you look at her," Izzie stated. "You love her. But she is afraid you still love Haley."

"That's true. I will always love Haley, but I am not in love with her anymore. I haven't been for awhile. We both had too much pride to say anything before though. Now we are done and I want to be with Brooke but she is so stubborn."

"She is…she isn't sure what she is going to do. I think for her it's a choice between Scotts," Izzie sighed.

"Wait she might get back with Lucas?!" he said angry. Lucas hurt Brooke a lot. He didn't want her to cry anymore.

"She might…I think it all depends on prom," then there was a knock at the door. "I GOT IT!" Izzie yelled to the girls. Then she and Nathan went to the door.

"Did someone order an escort?" Izzie smirked when she saw the hot guy. The she looked at Nathan and saw how angry he was. "Am I missing something…"
"What the hell are you doing here Lucas?" Nathan demanded. Izzie's jaw dropped. She couldn't believe this was the famous Lucas Scott, and she had just called him a hooker.

"Where is Brooke?" Lucas demanded. He tried to push past Nathan. "I know she is here. I know Peyton is also. I need to talk to them."

"You need to leave now!" Nathan pushed him back.

"Not without talking to them. I know Peyton found the letter," Lucas pushed him again. "Now move!"

"No I'm not going to let you see her!" Nathan pushed him harder.

"I know she still loves me, damnit! I made a mistake by letting her go! She and I are meant to be together!"

"No you aren't! Once school is over, she is going to get away from you!"

"STOP IT!" Brooke yelled from the stairs. "Stop it both of you!" Peyton was right behind her, almost in tears. "How dare you? Standing around deciding my future! I am not some prize to be won!" she yelled then went back upstairs.

Both boys stood there in shame. They knew they pissed her off. She hated when people told her what to or made up her mind for her. Lucas looked up and saw Peyton standing there.

"Peyton…I'm sorry. You were never meant to find that letter," Lucas knew that was the worst thing he could say after it came out of his mouth.

"You didn't mean for me to find it!? That doesn't matter does it, I found it. I understand now…I understand that you never loved me like that," she held back her tears.

"I am so sorry, Peyton," he looked truly sincere. "I can't help how I feel. I tried, I tried to forget about her and I tried to make myself be in love with you. But…it wasn't meant to be I guess."

"Lucas…it doesn't matter anymore. It really doesn't. You are right, we aren't in love. Neither of us is with each other. You love Brooke…"

"And you still love Jake. I can tell. You should go after him," he said with total honesty.

"Thank you Lucas," she gave him a weak smile. She was glad they could try and be friends. She knew they would never be great friends.

Lucas stared for the stairs to go talk to Brooke when Nathan grabbed him, "I don't care if Peyton forgave you, you are not going near Brooke." He was angry. He didn't want to risk losing Brooke.

"Nathan, will you shut up!" Lucas pushed past him. "I am going to talk to Brooke."

He stomped up stairs and knocked on Brooke's door. "Hey…can I come in, Pretty Girl?"

"Fine," she said. Lucas walked in and saw her laying on her bed with a pillow over her face.

"Brooke…"

"Don't Lucas. Don't you dare say it."

"I love you."

Brooke sat up angry. "I told you! I told you not to say it!" Lucas sat down next to her and she moved away. "Don't!"

"Brooke, listen to me. I love you. I have never stopped," Lucas pleaded. "please take me back."

"I can't!"

"At least go to prom with me tomorrow night," he looked sad and beaten.

"I can't…I'm going with Nathan," she lied. She knew Nathan would want to go with her, so she would just go with him.

"Nathan!? Brooke, he is still married!" Lucas looked shocked.

"Haley is getting the divorce papers as we speak. She wants it to be over, so does he."

"So what? You are just going to hook up with him on the rebound?"

"Shut up Lucas. I wouldn't do that!" Brooke looked hurt. She changed from the old her, and Lucas knew that.

"You are right, I'm sorry," he sighed and grabbed her hand.

"Lucas…I'll save you dance. That's it though. Why don't you take Izzie so she can get in," Brooke added. "She is really great. She is my best friend from California."

"I guess…" he looked upset. This was the Peyton thing all over again. "But I'm gonna fight for you Brooke Davis."

"That makes two of us," Nathan said coming in the room.

Lucas turned to see Nathan, "What are you talking about."

"You aren't the only one who loves Brooke," Nathan walked closer to Brooke. "Brooke, I have told you a million times, Haley and I haven't been in love in a long time. I love you!"

"Stop it both of you! I need to think!" she yelled and moved away from the both of them. "Ok…I'm going to go to prom with my friends. I will dance with you both. When I make up my mind about who I love more…I'll tell you." Then she turned to walk away then stopped. "Oh and Lucas, I suggest you stay the night. The storm is getting worse. You and Nathan can share a room. I'll stay with the girls." Then she left the room.

Nathan glared at Lucas, "Well…"

Lucas glared back, "Let the games begin."
