Author's Note: Wow, I'm so stupid. I had to put in this chapter twice cause I accidently uploaded the wrong thing. Arrg! Anyway, sorry I took soooo long to update. I actually wasn't planning on doing anymore, but my sister convinced me. (Actually, I just asked if I should update and she said sure- she didn't even know what I was talking about... Tk!) So tell me what you think!

Chapter Two: Car Troubles

Brooke's silver slug bug sped down the rural road. Inside, Brooke was laughing madly and hitting Peyton and Haley with her pompoms. Peyton was trying her best to drive while also trying to keep Brooke away.

"Brooke! Come on..." Brooke leaned back with an evil look on her face and tossed her pompoms out the window, giggling and clapping her hands. Once she had stopped laughing, she leaned forward again and threw her arms around Haley's neck, cuddling her face in the brunette's hair.

"Brooke..." Haley complained as she tried to untangle the cheerleader's arms from around her neck. Brooke pouted at her, but continued to hang on.

"Aw, come on Brookie. Don't you love me?"

"Um... no. Sorry."

"You're so mean!" Brooke finally let go and smacked Haley gently on the head before leaning back in her seat to pout. Peyton started laughing and Haley just glared at the girl in the back seat. Brooke stuck out her tongue in return.

"Is she always like this?" Haley asked, turned back to Peyton.

"Always this annoying or always into girls?" Peyton asked, smiling.

"I don't know," Haley answered with a laugh.

"Well, although she's not usually this annoying, but she does have her moments. And for the other part... She's never acted like this before. Come on, Brooke, you still like guys right?" she asked, glancing to the back seat.

"No, I want Haley!" she whined and Peyton started laughing. Haley just shrunk down into her seat, looking uncomfortable.

"Don't worry, she'll get over it. It's probably just the medication," Peyton said, noticing Haley's reaction. Haley just smiled weakly.

"Come on, Brookie, you like me more than Nathan, right?" Brooke asked, batting her eyelashes at Haley.

"Hey!" Haley said and turned around, giving Brooke a shocked look. "I don't like him! I'm just tutoring him, that's all."

"So you're not into him?" Peyton asked, serious. "Because he seems to be into you." Brooke had reached up and was now playing with Haley's hair.

"He gave her the nod!" She reminded Peyton, while Haley tried to pull back her hair from the cheerleader.

"No, I don't like him like that," Haley said, giving up on Brooke. "I mean, he's okay, but I'm best friends with Lucas and I know how he feels about him. It would just be too weird..."

"Alright..." Peyton said with a sigh. "But either way, just be careful." Haley nodded but didn't say anything. The silence was finally broken by a small beep, signaling the car was out of gas. Brooke looked up and around the car.

"I hear birds!" she said in a singsong voice.

"Unbelievable! Brooke, did you not think to put gas in the car?" Peyton yelled at Brooke, pulling the car over.

"Hey! Don't yell at Brookie!" Brooke leaned forward to wrap her arms around Haley again and planted a kiss on the back of her head. "Don't worry, sweetie, it's not your fault."

"Brooke, stop it!" Haley said sternly to Brooke, and pushed her off. Brooke looked hurt, but moved back and let Haley get out of the car. "Pop the trunk, will you?" Haley said as she approached Peyton at the back of the car. Peyton obeyed and Haley looked inside. "Yeah, it's empty. I saw a gas station a few miles back. We could walk back there." Peyton nodded.

"I'll go too!" Brooke said, and jumped out of the car before either of the girls could stop her.

"Brooke..." Peyton said with a sigh. "You can hardly walk. We don't want to drag you all the way down there."

"No, no, no, I can walk!" Brooke assured her. To prove her point she walked over in front of her friend. "See? No problem. Please let me go with you! I don't want to stay by myself!"

"Fine!" Peyton said finally, giving in. "But I'm not gonna carry you the whole way! And neither is Haley!"

"Yay!" Brooke yelled, hopping up and down. "Okay, let's go!" She started walking off in the wrong direction before Peyton grabbed her arm and pulled her around. "Right," Brooke said, giggling. "Let's go!" She laughed and started clapping her hands as she followed behind them.
