These twist and turns of fate
A warm breeze blew into the room causing the curtains to flutter.
He looked at the clock beside the bed and then turned to look at the girl who lay beside him, her body curved against his as she slept.
He moved her hair from the side of her face as he leaned down and pressed his lips to her cheek.
She sighed lightly and her eyes opened as she turned to look at him, she could never get over how good he looked without a shirt on, she sat up slowly her fingers running up his chest and he groaned lightly as she pressed her lips to his and so began there morning kiss, he stroked her cheek affectionately with his thumb as there lips moved against each other.
His hand snaked around her waist pulling her body closer to his and she gasped as his lips moved to the hollow base of her throat.
'Good morning, my graduate'.
He murmured against her skin the vibrations made her giggle.
'I can't believe I'm graduating'.
She replied trying to catch her breath which was made very difficult with his lips on her skin.
'I'm not'.
He said huskily his hand running through her hair and she smiled as she kissed him again.
'I've made Tree Hill history, a junior has never graduated early before'.
'They made a exception for the most beautiful junior'.
She smiled at him and then looked at the clock behind him.
'I'm have to get out of bed, soon I have a few things to do before graduation'.
He nodded.
'I think you have another 30 minutes to spare'.
After Dean, left Tree Hill Haley was certain that Sam would be leaving with him but to her surprise he stayed, he left his father in search of a normal life and that normal life had been found with college but with Haley he felt more normal than he did in Boston.
There relationship had been going very well, he had become a very important part of her life and had easily fitted into the Tree Hill way of life.
While their relationship was getting stronger there where certain things that Haley wasn't ready for and he never pressured her into doing anything she wasn't sure about which was made there relationship so strong but while they had never taken that step in there relationship, the kissing was enough for both of them especially when it was this good.
The sun felt different on her skin as her feet beat down against the ground beneath them.
This would be her final run as a high school student, as she ran she passed many places that held different memories for her, some good and some bad but memories all the same.
Memories that would stay with her for the rest of her life, even if she wasn't sure what the rest of her life would hold.
'Peyton'.
She heard her name and smiled at Lucas as he stepped out of his house with a basketball in his hands.
Life has changed for Lucas in the last three months but the biggest changes happened only 6 weeks ago when Dan confessed to Keith's murder much to everyone surprise but his confession had caused Karen to go into labour a week earlier than she was expected to and now Lucas had welcomed his baby sister Lily into the world.
'Heading to the rivercourt?'.
'Yeah, just a pre graduation game with the guys'.
'Your last game before the big trip to LA'.
He nodded.
'How's your mum and Lily?'.
'They are both really well, you'll see them later are you still coming to the Café after the ceremony, my mum and deb have been working really hard'.
'Of course I'm coming'.
'What about the party?'.
'How could I forget Brooke has been sending me texts about it for the last week, she's made it impossible for me to forget'.
He chuckled and then looked at her.
'Can you believe that this it, we are finally leaving Tree Hill High'.
'I know, we're all going on to different things you in UCLA with Skills and Bevin and Brooke at FIDM and working with Victoria Secret,Nathan at Duke, Rachel heading to Florida, Mouth in MIT and Me and Hales in our parents old apartment in New York'.
'Still can't believe Haley is graduating with us'.
'I'm not she has our mums brains while I have out father's stubbornness'.
'Is your dad coming in for graduation?'.
'Yeah he came in last night but I think he felt weird staying at the house, don't think he's used to think of Haley having a boyfriend but he loves Sam but it's still weird for him'.
'Well I can't wait to meet him and what about Dean is he coming back into town to see you graduate?'.
The way he said it made her roll her eyes.
'Brooke has a such big mouth, she told you didn't she'.
'Yeah, she didn't mean to she was just more happy'.
'Why, it doesn't change anything and to answer your question, he should be coming but his job takes him all over but when I spoke to him the other day, he said was coming, so we'll see'.
Dean had been on the road for the last few hours, he had pulled the car of the road and slept in the back-seat for a couple of hours before getting back on the road. He had made her a promise and he planned to keep it.
He finally arrived in Tree Hill in search of two things food and coffee before his body crashed on him and he knew exactly where to get it as he parked his car on the familiar street and walked towards the Café, he had received a unexpected kiss in front of twelve weeks before.
He walked up the steps and into the Café that seemed to be filled of Tree Hill High Students.
He sat at a booth near the window and smiled at the waitress as she poured some much needed coffee into his cup before leaving him with the menu.
She walked into the Café loaded down with bags and for once they weren't things for her but gifts for the people in her life that she loved as she walked to the counter she spotted him, sitting there and walked over to him.
'Well,Well look whose back in town'.
He looked up at her and smiled at her.
'Hello Brooke'.
'Hey Dean, it's been a long time now what could possibly bring you back to Tree Hill, expect maybe a pretty tall blonde that we both know and that you could have possibly kissed before you left'.
He chuckled as he motioned for her to sit down.
'Brooke, it's good to see you
She winked at him.
'So she told you about the kiss then?'.
'Well not exactly I forced it out of her but I'm not surprised you two have ridiculous chemistry'.
'It wasn't like that it was goodbye kiss'.
She nodded and made a face/
'Sure it was listen to someone that knows tension when they see it, you two have it and you can both say that it was a goodbye kiss but I know better if it was a goodbye kiss why did you kiss her back'.
His silence answered her question which made her smile.
'Look who am I to say anything about you and Peyton but for what it's worth she's going to be thrilled to see you'.
'So I hear congratulations are in order for you, she told me about your deal with Victoria Secret'.
'Thanks, you know I still feel bad about bailing on her for New York'.
'Brooke, like she said to me your not bailing, this is a once in a life time opportunity, you'd be mad not to take it and I'm sure she'd drag you to LA if you didn't go'.
'I know but I can't believe that I only have a week left with all my friends before we move on to bigger and better things after today everything changes, who knows if we'll remember each other five years from now'.
'You will, you've been through something together that nobody else will understand'.
'Just like you and Peyton'.
Peyton was in her room, applying her make up when there was a knock at her bedroom door and she turned and looked at Haley as she stood in her doorway.
'Well look who has untangled themselves from Sammy Winchester'.
Haley rolled her eyes as she came to sit on her sisters bed.
'Ha Ha, Brooke's on her way'.
'Cool, you look pretty Haley'.
'Thanks, so do you, it's shame mum won't be here to see us graduate'.
'Well I hope I'm enough for you both'.
They both turned and looked at Bobby as he stood in the doorway.
'Daddy'.
They said at the same time as they got up and embraced there father who kissed both of there heads before smiling at both his daughters.
'Look at the two of you, graduating high school, you have no idea how proud I am of the two of you and your mother would have been so proud of the way you have both grown up, I know that you both miss her but at least a part of her will be with you both today'.
They both looked at him as he took two small boxes out of the inside pocket of jacket and placed one in each of there hands,
'Open them'.
Haley opened her box first to reveal a pair of silver earrings with small blue gems embedded in them.
'I used to put these on when we used to play dress up in mum's closet, they where my favourite'.
'I know, she would have loved for you to have them'.
Peyton looked at the box in her hand and opened it and as she did she felt tears in her eyes as she looked at the ring in the box, the ring held a special place in her heart as it was the ring she had chosen for her mum's 36th birthday, her last birthday before she was tragically taken from their lives.
'Peyton'.
Haley touched her sisters arm softly and she nodded.
'I'm okay, thank you dad'.
He put his arms around her and she looked at him.
'I know how much her death has affected you and I need you to know that she wouldn't want the pain of her death to affect the way you live your life, you are both the most important things in my life and I'm so happy to see that the lose of your mother didn't change you for the worst but made you the strong women I see in front of me today and after you graduate you are both going on to make a difference in this world because it's who me and your mum raised you to be and I love you both so much'.
Haley looked at her dad as she took Peyton's hand.
'We love you, too'.
'Sorry to interrupt but Brooke's outside'.
Haley and Peyton both wiped away the tears from there faces and looked at Sam.
'Okay, we'll tell her down in a sec'.
He nodded before turning to walk back downstairs.
'I'll let you girls finish getting ready, you both look beautiful'.
Tree Hill High car park was full of student and there parents as they made there way to into the school.
The girls all sat together as they waited for the others to arrive.
'Look at us if I must say we are the best looking group of soon to be graduates'.
Brooke said as they sat on the bench that had become there's in the quad
'Still can't believe this it is it, we are going in there as seniors and leaving as young adults'.
'We've been through a lot together but I don't think I'd be happy if I wasn't graduating with my best friend and my baby sister'.
'Aww look at Peyton, finally get sentimental about graduating took you long enough to join the party'.
'Sorry I guess I've had other things on my mind but I've finally joined the party and I'm looking forward to the meal and party tonight but I'm going to miss this place even the bad stuff'.
'Hey Bitches, ready to graduate'.
They all laughed as Rachel walked over with Bevin and the boys, Lucas walked over and kissed Brooke.
'Let's do it'.
They all stood in the room putting on there caps and gowns, taking pictures as they posed while pulling the funniest faces.
Haley was putting on her cap and gown and smiled at Nathan as he walked into the room.
'Hey'.
She said as he walked over to her.
'Hey, happy graduation'.
'You too, still can't believe I'm doing this, graduating with you guys'.
'Haley, your the smartest person I know you and I want to say how sorry I am for the way I treated you it was wrong'.
'Nathan, the past is the past, you don't need to apologise'.
'I do, I treated you badly and I know that and seeing you with Sam, seeing how happy he makes you, I don't think I ever heard you laugh the way I've seen you laugh with him. He is the guy worthy of being your boyfriend I never was but I at least hope we can leave graduate and be friends'.
'Nathan, you are my friend, we've been through a lot together and you will find someone who is right for you'.
'It's shame I didn't see what I had with you until it was too late'.
'Some things are just not meant to be' but at the end you still end up with a good friend, now what do you say we put the past behind us and graduate as friends'.
He nodded as she pulled him to join the join the others.
As she walked out of the bathroom she heard the sound of someone whistling at her bit she ignored them as kept on walking.
'Blondie, nice legs;.
She smirked as she turned round and looked at Dean who smiled at her.
'You made it'.
He nodded as he hugged her.
'I made you a promise, I don't normally keep my promises'.
'I'm glad you kept this one'.
He looked at her taking in her appearance, she looked much better since the last time he saw her, there was a sparkle in her eyes and her skin was glowing with excitement.
'You look good'.
She smiled
'You too, you scrub up well'.
He ran his fingers over the suit he was wearing and shrugged.
'You sound so surprised'.
'Well, I've not seen you in a suit before it's a change from the leather jacket and plaid look you love so much'.
He rolled his eyes and then smiled as Haley walked out into the Hallway.
'Dean'.
'Haley, hiding my brother under that gown'.
'Your funny, no your brother is in the auditorium where you should be heading because it's time for us to graduate'.
He nodded and then looked at Peyton.
'Don't trip on stage'.
'Funny Winchester, try not to hit on anything while we graduate'.
'Don't worry I don't have my eye on anyone'.
Haley looked between the two of them and then rolled her eyes.
'Okay enough with the sexual tension, let's go'.
They walked into the auditorium the sounds of applause and cheering filled the air, they all sat in the there different places in the auditorium but all thinking about the memories they shared together as Principle Turner called out each students name but for Peyton and Haley these people meant more to them than they would know, they where there first real friends apart from Sam and Dean that they had.
'Brooke Davis'.
'Rachel Gattina'.
'Marvin McFadden'.
'Bevin Mirskey'.
'Nathan Scott'.
'Making Tree Hill history as the first junior to graduate Haley Singer'.
'Peyton Singer'.
'Antwon Taylor'.
'And final your class valedictorian Lucas Scott'.
Lucas stood up and the podium and looked out at the sea of faces.
'Today we have graduated and are heading into the world to discover who we are supposed to be.
Remember today for it is the beginning of always.
A promise. Like a reward for persisting through life so long alone.
A belief in each other and the possibility of love.
A decision to ignore, simply rise above the pain of the past.
A covenant, which at once binds two souls and yet severs prior ties.
A celebration of the chance taken and the challenge that lies ahead.
For two will always be stronger than one, like a team braced against the tempest civil world.
And love will always be the guiding force in our lives. For tonight is mere formality.
Only an announcement to the world of feelings long held. Promises made long ago.
After stopping by the Café for lunch, everyone headed home to get ready for the party.
While the girls where getting ready, Bobby was downstairs sharing a beer with Sam and Dean.
'So any word from your father while you've been on the road?'.
Bobby asked Dean who shrugged.
'No, nothing he don't want to be found'.
The way he spoke caught Sam's attention but he didn't say anything and instead changed the conversation.
'Bobby, are you sticking around until the girls leave for New York?'.
'I'd love to but I was working a case with Rufus, he gave me two days off but I'm leaving first thing in the morning, I wish I didn't have to but they understand the life of a hunter is always moving'.
'I hear that one'.
'What about you boys what are your plans now that the girls are moving?'.
'Well I know what I'm doing but what about you Sammy?'.
The sound of upbeat music filled Haley's room as she danced around her room, she didn't even hear her bedroom door open until she turned around to find Sam standing there with a goofy grin on his face.
'Nice moves'.
'Why thank you'.
'How does it feel being a graduate?'.
He asked as he stepped into the room and put his arms around her waist and she smiled up at him.
'It feels pretty good, exciting almost not knowing what's going to happen next'.
'So I have something for you, it's not much but I saw it and I thought of you'.
She looked at him curiously as he turned to his duffel that was shoved under her bed and opened it before returning to her.
'Close your eyes'.
She did as she was told with no arguments and felt him gently touch her wrist and then something cold brushed against her skin.
She opened her eyes slowly and looked down at her wrist, he had placed a silver bracelet with small charms on her wrist.
'Do you like it?'.
Without answering she pressed her lips to his and kissed him which surprised him as he stumbled backwards with her and landed on her bed with her straddling his lap and he looked up at her with a soft smile/
'I love it and I love you'.
'You love me?'.
'Of course I love you, I've loved since out first kiss'.
He sat up and put his hands around her and into her eyes that seemed lighter now than had before.
'I love you'.
She sighed in relief as he pressed his lips back to hers.
Peyton smiled at the sound of Haley and Sam's combined laughter as she walked out of the shower
She looked at the ring on her finger and stroked the cool silver as she looked at her reflection before walking into her closet to get her clothes.
Once she was dressed she returned to her room to find Dean looking at her music collection.
'Are you sure your dad isn't going to tell you to change?'.
Dean said with a chuckle commenting on her outfit that consisted of shorts and ankle boots.
'I'm 18, so thanks for coming here I know your busy saving lives and hunting things but it means a lot to me that I can count on you'.
'You can always count on me'.
They both turned as the sound of Haley laughter filled the air.
'He makes her so happy, I'm glad they have each other now'.
'He finally found the normal life he was searching for but what about you, your always putting Haley's happiness first don't you want that?'.
'Maybe but I'm way to twisted to be with anyone, I mean who would want to date the girl who keeps a knife under her bed and has a few guns in her trunk'.
'Good point, you know your not so twisted have you met me'.
'Your not that bad you attempted having a normal relationship which means your doing better than me, I mean my longest relationship last four days, which was my personal best but enough with the past I'm graduate and we have a party to get to'.
'A party in a old house in the woods, what is that about?'.
'It's a right of passage for every senior year to have there last party at this house before going there separate ways'.
One Week Later
Haley bounced Lily on her lap while Lucas packed the last of his things into his suitcase.
'I'm going to miss you Haley'.
'I'm going to miss you, Lucas but I know we are going to keep in touch'.
'Of course, as soon as me and Brooke get settled in LA, you and Peyton have to come out and see us'.
'Definitely, but are you sure you'll have time for me I hear LA changes people'.
'Well it won't be changing me, I know who I am but what about you what are you going to do out in New York while Peyton's at school'.
'I don't know I still haven't thought about it, get a job or two, whose now New York is the city of opportunity'.
'Well I'm sure what ever you do, your going to be amazing at'.
'Yeah and if not I'll still be happy'.
'I can't believe this it, it was bad enough saying goodbye to everyone else but saying goodbye to you is harder than I thought it would be'.
'I know, who k new when I moved here, I would make the best friend I've known'.
'Who knew that behind that moody blonde exterior was one of the most caring people I know, who is capable of being happy if she let's herself be open to it'.
'Brooke'.
'Look I know you say there is nothing there but there is and you deserve to be happy more than anyone I know, you've spent the last two years not letting anyone close to you and then he comes to town and I see this whole different side of Peyton, the side that is full of energy and a spark that he only brings out of you and I love that version of you just as much as I love this more complicated version of you but all I want is to call my best friend in a months time and find out that she made a move on the hot guy she's known most of her life'.
Dean shoved his cellphone into his pocket when he spotted Sam come round the corner after going for a run.
'You do know that it's just gone 10 right?'.
'Yeah, I just got a message from dad'.
Sam looked at his brother for a moment and then spoke.
'What did he say?'.
'More like what didn't he say, it was coordinates he's send me on a case'.
'So what's the problem?'.
'There isn't a problem I just don't want to do it alone and I know you booked out on all this hunting stuff but I could really use your Sam, I think dad's in trouble he would never turn down a case unless there was something more important at stake'.
'Like the demon that killed mum'.
'Then there where two'.
Peyton and Haley held hands as they walked away from Lucas house after waving him and Brooke off as they started on there road trip to LA.
'Hey, we'll see them again'.
Peyton nodded.
'I know, I guess I've gotten so used to having them in our lives it just sucks now that everyone we love has left and now we're the only ones left'.
'Yes but we have New York'.
'Do we?'.
Haley looked at Peyton as they turned onto there road, the impala could be seen in the distance as they walked and talked
'What do you mean?'.
'You know what I mean, is New York really where we need to be, I know that it's into where I want to be, I know where I need to be and it's not studying art and business, it's out there on the road trying to piece puzzle together, why did mum die 8 years ago, why did a demon try and kill me four months ago, Haley I need to know why I need to be out there making sure it doesn't happen again and I understand that this isn't what you want but for me I need this'.
'Your my sister and I'll be by your side always but are you sure you really want to turn your back on school and hunt, look what it did to John, he's obsessed with the hunt and he abandoned his family because of it'.
'I will never become obsessed but as long as I'm out there helping people, then I'll be okay'.
Sam could see Haley and Peyton as they walked towards there home and looked at Dean who nodded at him.
'Go I'll be inside'.
He stood up from the porch and turned into the house as Haley and Peyton came closer.
Sam saw the look they exchanged as Peyton walked past him and touched his arm as she walked inside closing the door behind her.
'Hey,Lucas and Brooke gone?'.
'Yeah, they just left, there road tripping it to LA'.
'Sounds nice, look I need to talk you about something',
'Funny I need to talk to you but you go first'.
He took her hand as they sat down on the porch and he looked at her.
'Haley the last 12 weeks have been the best 12 weeks of my life'.
'For me too'.
He smiled as he touched her face.
'I should have known with things going so well that something was going to come along and change everything and today it did, my dad sent Dean a message coordinates the same old marine crap but Dean he wants me to go with him and I know we only had a limited amount of time left with each other before you left for New York but I need to go with Dean not because I feel obligated by my father but for Dean he's my brother and he dropped everything when I called him all those weeks ago to come here without an argument and I owe him for so much and I hate to think that I'm just abandoning you'.
'But you need to help your brother, I get it because I need to help my sister'.
'Is she okay?'.
'She will be, she's not going to New York in fact college is the furthest thing from her mind right now, she wants to be out on the road looking for the answers and helping people'.
'She wants to hunt'.
'Yeah she just told me and I'm not that surprised by it I was wondering how long it would take her before she just disappeared in the night but like Dean is your brother, she's my sister and I don't want her out there alone, I've come close to losing her twice I don't want to know I lost her forever and I wasn't there to help her'.
'Haley are you saying what I think your saying?'.
'Yeah, looks like your not the only one going back on the road'.
He nodded and kissed her as a thought crossed his mind.
'I have a suggestion'.
Peyton was in her room, her bed was covered with knives and guns, that used to belong to her mum that she had discovered a year after they moved to Tree Hill, she looked at the supply and then turned back into her closet, she knew that she wouldn't be able to bring everything she owned and started to go though her closet pulling out the things that she needed while looking at her laptop as she used the internet to scan for a case, she hadn't wasted any-time in her preparation.
Dean was heading downstairs when he walked past her open door and spotted the guns and knives on her bed and walked into her room to find her packing a bags in her closet.
'So your really doing it?'.
He asked and she looked up from what she was doing and nodded.
'Yeah, school was never the right place for me and I'll feel better knowing I'm making a difference like everyone expects me too please don't be mad at me'.
'I'm not mad, I get it I know I tried to talk you out of it but if it's what you want to do, then who am to stop you'.
'Thank you'.
They both shared a look and then turned to the door as they heard the sound of Haley and Sam's footsteps coming towards the room and then they appeared in the doorway, hand in hand.
'You two talked?'.
Dean asked as Peyton stopped packing and looked between the two of them.
'Yeah, we talked and we both don't want you out there alone but we can't be apart from each other'.
'I know'.
Dean commented and Haley smiled at him.
'That's why we came up with a better idea, that means we can hunt but still be together'.
'What you two want to get married?'.
Dean asked not understand and Peyton sighed.
'No, they don't want to get married, they want us to work together, it makes four heads are better than two'.
He looked at her and then back at Sam and Haley.
'Really, you think the four of us can work together?'.
'Sure, I mean my parents hunted together why not it make sense'.
Dean thought about it for a while and then nodded.
'Fine, but no love stuff while working a case, it's strictly business'.
The sun had finally set in Tree Hill, Peyton had just returned from giving Harley to Karen who was surprised but accepted the dog saying she'd look after her,
Peyton looked at the house as she opened the boot and loaded the the trunk with the a few more weapons, life on the road was always unpredictable, she then put trick top down and put her and Haley's bags on top.
She heard the trunk of the impala slam shut and looked at Dean as he walked towards her.
As Sam and Haley walked out of the house, Haley turning of all the lights behind her and bolting the door shut,
'You ready to do this?'.
Dean asked as he stood beside Peyton who nodded.
'Yeah'.
She smiled at Haley as she handed her the car keys.
'I think you two may need these'.
She said before looking at Dean.
'Do you mind losing Sam, for me'.
'No just don't touch the radio'.
'I know driver picks the music, shotgun shuts there cake-hole besides I have my iPod'.
The cars sped through Tree Hill, with each Winchester behind the wheel, while both Peyton and Haley watched the place they called home fly past there eyes as they drove past the rivercourt.
They both remembered what remained there all there games scattered around the ground with the words
We Were Here
Sprayed on the gravel floor.
'Goodbye Tree Hill'.
They both said at the same moment as the cars drove past Thanks for visiting Tree Hill sign, which soon became a blur in the distance.
So that's it Peyton and Haley are on the road with the Winchesters and it's going to a be very emotional and humorous ride.
Sam and Haley will continue to grow, while Peyton and Dean dance around each other which leads to a lot of tension especially with life on the road but there will also be some Brooke and Lucas mentioned but there will be demons, ghost, witches, ex girlfriends, possession, jealousy,obsession and shape shifters that reveal to much to Peyton.
I know I skipped out the party but I needed to get the story moving and it wasn't vital to the plot.
Review make me smile so let me know what you think.
