Note: This story was just something I had writted during the first season of One Tree Hill. I had just gotten done watching The Breakfast Club right before watching One Tree Hill, and the story just came out. I'm finally posting it, but it's a pretty early story andmight not be all that great. Please Review, but please...be nice:)
Lunchtime...
Mr. Turner came into the library and announced there was a lunch break for thirty minutes. When he leaves, everyone, but Peyton and Lucas start taking out their lunches. Lucas looks over at Brooke as she set up a small platter with these weird looking green wrapped white things.
"Ugh...what is that?" he asked.
Brooke looked at him before picking one up with chopsticks. "Sushi...you know raw fish. Want some?"
Lucas made a gagging sound and looked at Peyton who put a hand to her mouth and tried not to throw up.
"Gross." Peyton whispered under her breath.
Nathan shook his head and opened his lunch. Three sandwiches, a large bag of potato chips, two apples, a small carton of milk and a powerade were set on the table. He stilled as he realized everyone was staring at him.
"What?" he said with a frown. "I have to make weight for the game or I can't play."
Peyton snorted. "Oh...I don't think making weight will be a problem, oinker."
Nathan turned and made a face as he saw Haley making her lunch. The bread on her sandwich was pancakes left over from that morning's breakfast. Her lunch meat had been flung it in the air, sticking to the low ceiling above. Everyone's eyes widened as she squeezed a condiment package of ketchup out onto the center of the pancake. After that was done, she took out a bag with mixed cereals in it. Fruit Loops, Honey Smacks and Captain Crunch were piled onto the ketchup and then smashed down with her hand.
Haley looked hungrily at the pancake sandwich as she folded it in half and brought it to her lips. She was about to take a bite when she noticed everyone staring at her. Although Mouth was used to this, it still grossed him out when she ate stuff like that.
"What?" Haley asked.
Mouth shook his head in disgust. "That's gross, Hales."
"Yeah...positively disgusting." Lucas said wrinkling his nose at it, then looked at Mouth who was taking out his lunch. Of course, the brain would have a normal, sandwich, fruit and drink type of lunch. Mouth looked up and glanced at Lucas and Peyton.
"Aren't you guys going to eat?" he asked.
Lucas grinned and looked at Peyton before answering. Peyton chuckled and shook her head.
Lucas looked back at Mouth and smiled mischievously. "Let's just say...it's being delivered."
Thirty minutes later, Principal Turner came into the library and lunch time was over. Lucas lifted his head, hearing a bird outside and winked at Peyton. Ten minutes after Principal Turner left, two kids poked their heads in. Seeing Lucas and Peyton, the two young men came in carrying two pizzas and a plastic grocery bag.
"Yo! I heard there was some starving kids up in here!" said Skills, who had the pizza's.
"And some thirsty ones, too!" said Jimmy, who had the grocery bag.
Lucas and Peyton looked up, while the others sat there in silent shock. Lucas grinned and got to his feet, going to greet his two friends.
"Hey man, what's up?" Skills said, greeting Lucas.
"Hey Juvie. Hey Pey." Jimmy said.
"Hey guys." Lucas said.
"Hey, Skills, Jimmy." Peyton said from her chair.
Skills turned a dashing smile on her. "Hey, Popeye."
Peyton chuckled at the nickname. Skills had been calling her that since the day he met her at three years old. Nathan stood and cleared his throat.
"What the hell is going on Lucas?" he demanded. "They aren't supposed to be here."
Skills held his hands up. "Chill out man! We just brought Juvie and Popeye some eats."
"So...what's on the menu for today?" Lucas said. "And who do we have to thank?"
Jimmy grinned and opened up the pizza cartons, revealing a pepperoni pizza and a canadian bacon and pineapple.
"Compliments of Principal Turner." Jimmy said.
"And that's not all." Skills said, holding up a twelve pack of beer. "Compliments of none other than...your dear father...Dan Scott."
Nathan looked up hearing his fathers name. "How'd you get my dad to buy you beer?"
Skills chuckled. "Your mom was putting away groceries and it was in the back of her car."
Nathan shook his head and looked away in disgust. Lucas chuckled and looked at Nathan.
"Just think of it like...a child support payment." Lucas said. "Dan's supporting his child with payment for the beer."
Nathan shook his head again and looked at the can of beer that Lucas set in front of him. It was there, everyone else was going to do it...might as well not let it get to waste. Popping the top, he lifted it high in salute.
"Thanks, Dad." he said, then took a big swig.
Lucas laughed and then tossed one to Brooke, Haley and Mouth. Brooke didn't even hesitate and popped the top open and started chugging. Haley and Mouth hesitated a second, then shrugged and joined in.
"Yo, Pey! Up Top!" Lucas called out tossing one over his shoulder at her. Peyton didn't even look up from her artwork as she caught the can of beer and popped the top.
"Two in a Row!" Lucas called out, sending another one flying in her direction. Peyton caught this one as well and popped the top setting it beside her for Lucas.
Skills and Jimmy opened their own cans of beers, then placed the pizzas in the middle of all the tables. It was only a second before everyone grabbed a couple of slices and dug in. Lucas sat back down and took a bite of the pizza when he realized that everyone in the room had pizza except Peyton. With a frown, he leaned over, grabbed a slice and put it in front of her. Peyton took another sip of her beer, but didn't look up from her drawing.
"Later." she said.
Lucas knew what 'later' meant in Peyton's world. It meant 'never'. She'd gotten into that habit during his last stint at juvenile hall and now that he was back, he wouldn't put up with it from her.
"Now." he replied.
"Later." Peyton said glaring up at him.
Lucas glared right back at her. She wouldn't win this argument and she knew it too. Feeling the tension between them, everyone else glanced up and watched the two. After a minute, Peyton threw her pencil onto her sketch pad and grabbed the pizza.
"You are such a mother fucking Dad, Lucas." she growled.
Lucas smiled, knowing he had won, and winked at her. "Yeah, but you love me for it."
"Hmff." Peyton replied as she started tossing off the pepperoni. With the tension gone, the room was filled with silence except for the smacking of gums and slurping of beers by now eight teenagers. When the pizza was gone, Mouth looked up at Lucas in curiosity.
"What if Turner comes in?" he asked.
Lucas grinned and turned to Skills, who turned back to Mouth.
"I don't think Turner's gonna be a problem." Skills said with a snicker. "Jimmy locked him in the john, man."
Lucas laughed, high-fiving Jimmy, along with everyone else. Then, turning to Peyton, he grinned at her seeing she'd eaten everything but the crust. He took her fingers and brought it to his lips in a gentle kiss. Peyton rolled her eyes at him, then giggled. Lucas was always doing that. It was something he had always done during the three years they'd been together. And even though they were no longer involved with eachother, he still did it. Peyton was his first love, and she would always hold a special place in his heart.
"Now that the grub's done..." Skills said with a smile. "How 'bout a little...green?"
Lucas and Peyton look up as Skills took out a bag containing some green flakes.
"Marijuana?" Mouth asked sharply. "You brought drugs in here?"
"What if Turner catches us?" Brooke asked.
Nathan smiled as he took the pipe that Jimmy held out. "Turners...a little tied up. Remember?"
