Again…I own nothing…the song at the end is owned by The Fray…and it's called Trust Me…it's amazing…


New York City

Brooke got out of her cab. She looked at the large building in front of her. The next 4 years of her life was standing in front of her.

She was about to get her first lesson. Never just stand on the sidewalks.

"Hey," she called to them man you bumped into her, also on his way into the building.

"You're not supposed to just stand there," he called back, angrily.

She made a face and went on into the building trying to juggle all of her stuff with her.

She reached her floor, the 4th one. Room 412 she looked for. After about 10 minutes of walking in the wrong direction there she was. Her dorm room. Now all she had to do was find her key. Frustrated, she dropped her bags and started digging through her purse, which she had put in her carry on, at the bottom.

"I know I put you in here somewhere, come on. Where are you?" she asked herself, getting extremely frustrated. She, however, didn't notice that the door was now open.

"Can I help you?" the girl asked from the doorway. Brooke whipped her head up shocked and extremely embarrassed.

"Oh, you must be Brooke," she said, reaching for her hand to shake it, "I'm Stephanie, but you can call me Steph, that's what everyone calls me. I'm going to be your roommate."

"Hi, it's really nice to meet you," she said sincerely, "I don't normally talk to myself, I just couldn't find my key, and if in knew you were in there, I would've knocked," she rambled, embarrassed.

"That's okay, we all have some amount of craziness in us. Well let's get inside," she said, grabbing some of Brooke's stuff.

"Oh thanks, I didn't know how much longer I was going to be able to carry all of that."

"No prob, oh this is Adam, he's my fiancée. So be prepared for him to be here a lot."

"Hey, you're the guy from the street."

"Sorry about that, I was in a hurry, I was late."

"It's fine, I tend to bump into a lot of people, I'm a klutz like that," she laughed at herself.

"Well, we were going out, so you can probably just unpack your stuff, and relax, you must be exhausted."

"Yea, I will, you guys go and have fun," she said, taking a bag, and walking into the room she thought was hers. Walking right back out and into the other one. "I guess that one is yours."


Airport-Right after Brooke left

"Oh my Gosh," Haley said in disbelief.

"What?" Peyton asked, turning to look in the same direction Haley was looking in.

"Oh, my gosh. Is that Scott, with Brooke's Mom?" Peyton asked in disbelief.

"Um, I think I'm going to throw up," Haley said, turning and running away. As she was running, she bumped into someone and fell on her ass.

"Haley, did I miss her?"

"Luke?" she asked getting up. "Miss who?"

"Brooke."

"Yea, she just got on the plane. Look, we gotta get out of here. We just saw Brooke's mom with Scott."

"WHAT?"

"Calm down, we're trying desperately to avoid them. Now let's go."

"We?"

"Yea, me and Peyton. Who was behind me," she said, looking around only to see her still staring at them with astonishment.

"Peyton, let's go," Haley called to her.

"What? Oh, I didn't realize," she said, "Luke, hey."

"Hey, can we go now?" he asked.

"What are you doing here?"

"I was coming to say bye to Brooke, but looks like I'm a little late."

"We can go now." Haley said in a rush grabbing both of their arms and dragging them out.


Jake's Room

"Hey boyfriend," Brooke said, walking into his room and closing the door.

"Hi girlfriend," he replied, kissing her on the lips.

"So I was thinking, maybe this weekend we could go out, you know on a date."

"Really, but what about everyone finding out?" he joked.

"Shut up, I made a mistake with that okay, and I don't want to hide this anymore. I want to be with you and only you," she said sincerely.

"I know, I want to be with you too."

"Good, let's make out," she said, grabbing him for a kiss.

"Brooke, I have to study, I have a test tomorrow," he said, in between kisses.

"Studying is overrated," she simply replied, deepening the kiss.

Lying back down on the bed, her on top of him. He quickly changed that, moving so he was on top of her. Holding himself up with one arm as the other roamed her body receiving a moan from her, as she went to take off his shirt.

He pulled them up in a sitting position, not wanting to squish her. She pulled his shirt over his head, while he grabbed hers doing the same. Laying them back down, she wrapped her jean-clad legs around his waist, arcing into him, letting her tongue roam his mouth. He reached down to unbutton those jeans, breaking the kiss and letting his mouth roam down her body, getting a moan out of Brooke. Moving his way back up to kiss her again, she managed to unbutton his pants.

Deepening the kiss yet again, he went to move his hands down, when the door opened.

"Jake, you're mom said you were up here," they said, walking into the room.

Breaking from their make out session, Brooke somewhat embarrassed looked away from the door. Jake whipped his head to see who it was.


Brooke's Dorm- NYC

She sat in the bay window staring out at the city, listening to her iPod. The latest mix Peyton had put in it, without her knowledge. Everything was so peaceful, looking down at the streets, all the cabs, and all the people walking. This place was different from Tree Hill, her life was going to be different, but all she could think about was him. The guy that got away, the one she had spent most of the last year pinning over. Listening to the lyrics of the song she was listening, she started to cry.

"Looking for something I've never seen
Alone and I'm in between
The place that I'm from and
The place that I'm in
A city I've never been
I found a friend or should I say foe
Said just a few things you should know
We don't want you to see
We come and we go
Here today, gone tomorrow

Were only taking turns
Holding the world
Its how its always been
When you're older, you will understand

If I say who I know it just goes to show
You need me less than I need you
Take it from me
We don't give sympathy
You can trust me trust nobody
But I said you and me
We don't have honesty
The things we don't want to speak
Ill try to get out but I never will
Traffic is perfectly still

Were only taking turns
Holding this world
Its how its always been
When you're older you will understand

And again maybe you don't
And again maybe you wont

When you're older
You might understand
When you're older
You might understand"


Okay…that's it…sorry about the long wait. I couldn't think of anything else to write, I had writer's block, how crazy is that one…

I love the Fray, if you don't have their CD buy it…they are amazing…the played the last song in last night's episode and I love them forever…I also have BG's song from last night too…and another one…I love him too and squealed like a little school girl when I saw him again…him and Peyton are my two favorite characters this season…I love Brooke too….

I know it was pretty unrealistic with Brooke's mom and Scott, but i thought that was funny...if you don't think so that's fine...

Okay, enough ranting for now…leave a review!
