Nathan opened his eyes to a bunch of blonde curls in his face. Scowling, he leaned his head back so he could get some air.
Then it hit him.
He slept with Peyton.
Now they were lying in spoon fashion on her hotel bed. He smiled, remembering all of last night's events.
Well, he thought to himself, Brooke was right.
"I win,"
He sat up and saw Peyton's eyes still closed. "What?"
"I won the bet," She said, her eyes still not opening.
"Are you awake?"
"I'm talking aren't I?"
"You could be sleep talking,"
"I don't sleep talk,"
"Ya sure?"
She hit his arm, he cringed. "Ow!"
"I won; you have to go on a vacation with your daughters,"
He groaned. "Great. Just freakin' great,"
She smiled. "Oh, you'll have fun. Take them to Disneyworld. They'll love that."
He nodded. "Okay, I'll take them to Disneyworld,"

"Luke?" Brooke whispered to Lucas. They were in their bed, arms wrapped around each other. Brooke was awake, Luke, however… "Luke!" Brooke whispered louder.
"Huh?" He exclaimed, waking up.
"So, do you think they did it?"
"Who? Did what?"
"Nathan and Peyton! Do you think they slept together?"
"I don't know, can't we just go back to bed?"
"No, Luke! Please! I really want to know,"
"Why don't you just go ask them?"
"Oh! That's a good idea!" She began to get up but Lucas tightened his hold,
"I was kidding,"
"Fine,"
He closed his eyes as she leaned into him.
"Luke?"
"What?"
"You want to go get me a cheesecake?"
"A cheesecake?"
"Yeah, with blueberry's on it,"
"Brooke, it is" he looked at the clock, "seven in the morning, you can't have a cheesecake!"
"What kind of a father are you? You're kids want a cheesecake, and you won't go get them one?!"
He rolled his eyes and stood up slowly, "Fine, I'll go get you a cheesecake,"
"With blueberries!" She reminded him as he pulled on his pants, smiling.
"With blueberries," He repeated. He grabbed the keys and walked out the door. She stood up, put on her clothes and a robe and walked across the hall. She knocked on the door, repeatedly, until Peyton opened the door.
"I knew it!"
"What?" Peyton asked, wiping the sleep out of her eyes.
"You totally slept with him!"
"Brooke! It's early! Can we have this conversation later?"
"Ha! You didn't deny it, you slept with him!"
Peyton shook her head as she shut her door so Nathan, who was in bed, wouldn't hear them. "Yes, we slept together, alright? Happy?"
"Yes! I am totally happy!"
"Can I go back to bed now? I'm kinda tired,"
"I bet,"
"Brooke!"
"Actually, I take that back, you probably aren't tired, you just want to get back to Nathan!"
"Brooke!" Peyton exclaimed, glaring at her. "Where's Lucas? Did he allow you to come here and ask that?"
"No, I tricked him into going to get me a cheesecake?"
"You tricked him?"
"What?" Brooke shrugged, "I wanted to know,"
Peyton shook her head, opening her door, "I'm going back to bed now, okay? I'll see you at breakfast later,"
"Alright, see ya, don't be late!" Brooke grinned, returning to her room.

The funeral was, well, a funeral. They went, they cried, they left. And now, as bad as it sounded, Peyton was relieved that it was all over. Now she could get back to her normal life. She felt guilty about it, but hey, Jenna had never really cared about her now had she?
Shaking her head, Peyton shifted in her seat and put on her headphones, clicking the 'play' button on her ipod. She closed her eyes, and ignored the popping of her ears.
"Hey," Nathan said as he sat down.
Peyton didn't answer him.
"Peyton?"
Nothing.
Sighing, he clicked the 'play' button again on her ipod, pausing it. She opened her eyes instantly, narrowing them when they landed on Nathan.
"I hate it when you do that," She muttered.
"Atleast I know it won't be awkward between us,"
"What are you doing here, anyways? I thought I was sharing a seat with Brooke?"
"She switched me seats. She wanted to be with Lucas,"
"Is he still mad about her tricking him?"
"No, he loves her too much to be mad at him,"
"You do know that the real reason she switched was…"
"So we would talk and all that jazz, yeah I know,"
Peyton laughed. "She is something, isn't she?"
"Yeah, something,"
They sat there for a moment, not saying anything. Nathan looked to her, and took a deep breath. Well, he thought, here goes nothing.
"Hey, Peyt?"
"Yeah?"
"You want to have dinner with me sometime?"
She smiled. "I'd love to,"
He grinned. "Good,"
She laid her head down on his shoulder and he wrapped an arm around her shoulders.
END!
Don't worry. I'll be posting an epilogue soon. Thanks for all the reviews. Sequel is an open option but I don't know yet.
