work your ass off on a daily basis just to get a job. People needed jobs so they could gave money, Brooke had money so she had figured she didn't need school or a job.
In the space of twenty minutes Brooke had transformed herself into the old Brooke Davis.
Old, she hated that. She hated how people would always tell her that she had changed.
The old Brooke Davis was fun. She broke people hearts, it wasn't the other way around.
As they arived at the school Rachel put her hand on the brunettes hand and gave it a light squeeze.
Both girls were aware that everyone wanted to know about what seemed to be their new friendship.
A few months ago they were ready to swing for each other and now they were walking together with all
eyes on them.
Brooke smiled to herself feeling better about herself. Everyone was looking at her and she knew why.
In the car Brooke had made a few adjustments to her outfit. Her tee shirt was now tied up
and barley there, showing off her tanned flat stomach. Her long legs covered with a pair
of tight jeans hanging low on her hips, covered? Not covered, they were more just there.
One inch lower and the school would be seeing a whole lot more of her than they currently already were.
Her long straight brown hair laying on her shoulders moving slightly with the wind.
Even in a cast the girl could work it.
All eyes were on the pair. Attention was good Brooke thought to herself as she felt Rachels
arm link with hers as they opened the school doors. They didn't talk, they didn't look around.
They were aware of what was going on. Rachel not to be outdone was in a similar outfit, or
should I say with outfit as Brooke. Every girl looking on in jelously and every guy looking in delight.
Just like it used to be.
When she reached her locker she felt her heart drop. There they were, Peyton and Lucas.
Why did she have to have a locker near Peyton. Rachel seeing the look On Brookes face change.
If only for a second Brooke had let it slip. She took it upon herself to make Peyton
give Brooke some time.
Peyton knew that she should have stayed out of the way. The last thing she wanted was to hurt Brooke anymore than she already had done but she just wanted to know if she was ok. Her entire trial of thought was Brooke orentated. It didn't matter what she did, she turned on the tv a show that herself and Brooke used to watch would be on. Listened to a song, a song Brooke liked or made fun would bast through her speakers. Even drawing, the one thing that took her away from everything lead her back to Brooke. She could start out to draw a horse and somehow the end result would turn out to be Brooke. The girl was stuck in her head.
The red head was the first to speak "Peyton." Her voice dripping with venom.
It was understandable, Rachel and Brooke were the new Paris and Nicole so Peyton could understand that she would be on Brooke's side even though they had stuck together at the hospital. Not letting it get to her, Peyton gave out the best smile she could manage.
"Hey." From no fault but her own Peytons eyes went to Brooke who was staring at the blonde.
Cursing herself she quickly looked down to the ground.
Get a grip of yourself she thought to herself. Brooke wanted to be horrible to her,
really she did. If she was then maybe Peyton would just forget about her. That's
something she herself wanted to do. She wanted to forget about the blonde completely.
It would make everything so much better.
When the silence started to feel weird Brooke let out a small sigh, you are your old self
again she thought to herself "I'm going to leave now before this gets uncomfortable"
She spoke softly, quieter than she intended. Cursing herself again she began to walk grabbing
Rachel with her. She looked over her shoulder at Petyon and raised her eyebrow "Well, more uncomfortable."
That's more like it.
Rachel let out a small giggle "It smells of boyfriend stealer around here anyway."
Brooke flashed the red head her dimples as they entered the girls bathroom together.
"Are you ok?" He asked
Smiling Peyton turned around "I'm fine." He gave her a questionable look and she put on a fake smile "Really I'm ok, Lucas."
"I guess it could have been worse." He said softly
"I should have known she was going to be a bitch to me, what do you expect."
Lucas sighed "I know but I don't want it being like this whenever we are near each other."
"It's unavoidable." She whispered.
Shrugging he shook his head "Maybe I should talk to her?"
Peyton let out a small chuckle "Cause that will help."
Brooke sighed as she walked over to Rachel putting her head on her shoulder "I hate this."
"Your doing good." Rachel said quietly knowing Brooke was upset.
Smiling Brooke gave a small nod. Like herself Rachel was honest. That's why Brooke liked her
so much. After they got past the whole I'm better than you are drama she really saw what a
kind of person Rachel was like. They had hung out a few times without anyone else knowing.
Even when she was dating Lucas, she was unhappy for a while and no one but Rachel knew.
They were the same, even if she wouldn't admit it. They both knew it.
"If she comes up to you again I'll handle it."
"She isn't going to do that again." Brooke said knowing she was right. She looked in the mirror and smiled at her reflection. Even if she felt like crap she certainly didn't like like it.
Shaking all thoughts of Peyton and Lucas out of her head she smiled at Rachel "Come on red."
As they got out of the toilet Brooke saw Lucas and Peyton, biting her lip with anger as she saw him move closer to the blonde and wrapped his arms around her. Rachel grabbed her arm seeing everything;
"Don't let them get to you, fuck them."
Brooke nodded and walked past them not daring to make eye contact. She could feel their eyes on the pair but didn't care. If they want to be together, screw them. Brooke let out a smile when she saw Mouth walk over to them.
"Where did you get to?" She asked with a giggle.
Last thing she knew he was right next to them. Obviously not.
"I got help up by these guys."
Rachel raised her eyebrow "Are you ok?"
Nodding he let out a small smile "Yeah, they kind of offered to buy me breakfast" His voice getting smaller with each word.
"Why?" The red head asked with a small laugh
"Cause I was with you two."
Both girls giggled and linked their arms with his.
"This isn't going to be so bad after all." Brooke giggled as they walked along the corridor.
