After class Nate and I walked out of the room hand and hand along with Brooke. Was I mad that everyone in the class knew and after this period everyone would know? No. Everyone was bound to find out sooner or later. Sooner or later I was bound to start showing more and more and there was no way it would be hidden. But it wasn't a dirty little secret. After last night I knew Nate and I were serious about things and that we were going to change. We were going to be parents and even though we were young we were proud of it. Nathan and I created a baby together and it was an amazing feeling.
Nathan wanted to go talk to Whitey about quitting the team. He said if things were really going to be different he had to quit and had to know he wasn't going to turn into his father. He didn't want our child to hate him the way Nathan hated his dad, and he didn't want to treat our child the way his dad treated him. I told Nate it was his choice to make considering I wasn't going to be cheering anymore. Which of course said that made his decision even more final.
With a kiss goodbye we parted ways and Brooke and I linked arms and finished walking to our next class. Reaching the door we realized that Nate was in study hall this period but we were stuck with his half brother and his half brother's best friend.
With a groan I made it into the class to be met with a glare coming from none other than Lucas Scott.
"Have something to say?" I spit out In anger.
"What right do you have to be angry? You ruined my trust. You slept with my best friend's boyfriend and hurt her. You're a slut that got knocked up." He spit out equally angered.
"Now wait just a minute Broody. 1) He may have been Haley Jame's boyfriend but he loved Peyton Elizabeth Sawyer. Want to know how I know? You're little friend went and got a tattoo of his basketball number not realizing she was moving too fast..Know what Nate did? He went out two days later and got a tattoo too. And it wasn't of Haley. Nope. It has a raven that says PEYTON underneath. P-E-Y-T-O-N. Not Haley. See? Even after Haley pretty much said she was in love with him by branding herself his heart belonged to Peyton and always will so both of you suck it up. Because also if you look at both of Peyton's and Nate's wrists they have matching tattoos that they were dumb enough to get when drunk but they mean a lot because they are TRUE. TRUE LOVE is what they both say and they match each other perfectly just like Nate and Peyton match each other. So really yeah he might have been dating Haley and he's probably sorry but he belonged with Peyton and he knew it. She knew it. I knew it. Hell everyone in this school knew it. So get over it Broody. They love each other. They are starting a family together. MOVE ON!"
After her long winded speech everyone was speechless and in shock. Finally Peyton brought her into a big hug with tears in her eyes and thanked her over and over again as Brooke whispered "Peyt, even though you and Superstar doubted it sometimes with all the rough patches, I never doubted that one day you were going to become Mrs. Nathan Scott and have beautiful babies with him. You kinda got the steps confused, but still, I believe in you both. True love conquers all. Rememember?" And with that she pulled apart from the blonde, grinned at her and took her seat as the teacher came in.
"True love conquers all." Did she remember it? Of course she did. The day her and Nate got their matching tattoos it was somewhat because they were drunk but it was more than that. They had spent the day doing different things they always wanted to do but had never got a chance to do. Nate taught Peyt some self-defense. She taught him about some of her music. Nate took Peyt on a roller coaster - her first time and in return she took him on a ferris wheel..which proceeded to get stuck. They ended up getting drunk at a party after they had spent their entire day together when Nate said he had always wanted to get a tattoo. Peyton said she wanted to get one also..Always had. They went together with their fake id's and decided on a matching one. In the end Nate was the one who ended up picking out "True Love" no matter how girly it would look on his wrist. When she questioned him he replied "True love conquers all. We're both stubborn and hard headed which will cause problems in the future as it has in the past but we'll always get over it because true love conquers all." And now, looking down at that - at the reminder of their "true love" she was glad Nate picked it, because when he said that he had been right. They fought. They broke up. But they always overcame the obstacles because this was a one in a million love.
