Pulling out of the driveway on the way to nowhere as of yet, I turned to look at Nate.

"Thanks for this Nate. Thanks for being there for me."

"You've been there for me alot and now it's time to return the favor."

"I'm supposed to be there for you, it's what best friends do."

He looked at me and gave me a genuine smile. Which made me do the same in return. I can tell when his smile is fake, when he's sad, angry, or wants to be left alone. We read each other like an open book, and ever since that night in my room with a bottle of Jack Daniels, we've been healing each other.

That was 3 weeks ago. For that night, which was a Friday we drank, the next night we drank. And then come Sunday we threw away the empty bottles, and the rest of the stash and decide to heal each other instead of having the alcohol heal us.

I still haven't talked to Brooke. Lucas still won't leave me alone, calling, leaving messages, emailing me constantly. Haley and Nate haven't talked either.

He moved out of his apartment. Brooke moved in there he mentioned.He moved home to his mom's although he hated it.

"Hey Nate?"

"Yeah?"

"Why don't you move in with me?"

I asked him. I had already explained the situation to my dad before I learned the truth about the fake mommy situation and he agreed it would be good considering he'd be at sea for 6 more months.

"Are you sure?"

"Yeah, and I already talked to my dad about it, he said this way he'll know i'm safe."

"If you're sure, than yea, why not. The parents are driving me crazy since I moved back in there."

"Ok, then it's settled, after we get back from this trip we'll get your things, and move ya in."

"Thanks Sawyer."

"Anytime Nate" I say and mean it, and I place my hand over his on the console.

After what seemed like hours we arrived a few towns away at a place that rented cabins and decided to check in.

Getting our things and checking into a cabin, we made their way there.

"Cabin 4, right here."

Walking into the room, I was pretty amazed. It was beautiful, with a wonderful view of the mountains out of a big window behind a jacuzzi.

"Wow." I finally managed to say.

"Pretty nice, huh?"

"Very."

After noticing one bed and figuring it's ok to share it since we've been sharing a bed alot the last few weeks. We unpack some things and decide to go for a walk.

"What happened with you and my brother?"

"Ahhh." one topic I prefer not to talk about, not because I love him, but because not even nate was the cruel. But I decided to tell nate what happened because I trust him.

"You know the day brooke was leaving and she came a kidnapped me from your apartment?" I start out with. That day was a good day in the beginning, with our tickle fight, and him showing me he kept our pictures.

"When we having foreplay?" At this I laugh and remember brooke saying that.

"Ya. Well after we hung out a little til' she had to leave. Well she remembered she got me something so went to her house to get it. While she was gone, Luke came over and he told me that he wanted another chance because he was in love with me, at this point he thought Brooke had already left tree hill, and 1) I felt that was the only reason he wanted me and 2) I didnt want to hurt brooke so I told him no. He kissed me, Brooke came in at that moment and he said the exact opposite, he didnt love me, he loved her. She asked about this stupid peyton box, and he said it was too remind him of his mistake which was me, so Brooke and me arent friends because she believed him over me, and Luke I could kill."

Nate swung an arm around me, pulling me closer.

"Damn Peyt, i'm so sorry all this is happening to me. I may be going through stuff with Haley but what you are going through with your dad, bio mom, Brooke, Luke..I mean I couldn't imagine handling it all. You are the strongest person I know, and i'm always here for you. I'm sorry us Scott brothers didn't treat you good when we had you, because you deserve so much."

"Thanks Nate. You deserved me though, more than he did. Maybe not towards the end but we have alot of good memories that I wouldn't trade for the world.
Luke hurt me by calling me a mistake, but it's okay now because I don't love him. And same goes for you; i'm always here for you too."

"Thanks Peyt."

My stomach let out a rumble to be fed and Nate laughed.

"Natey, food please."

"C'mon Peyt let's go."
