"So little sis how have you been?" Brooke asked watching Haley play with Jenny on the bed.
"Don't worry you don't need to be nice to me, I won't tell your friends what a bitch you've been to me" Haley said. As Brooke went to defend herself, Haley cut her off "We just need to be civil in public as for the rest of the time you can forget I even existed...oh wait! That's right!!! You already did that!. Oh and don't touch my stuff" Haley added before reaching in her backpack for Jenny's present from her mom.
"What do you think baby girl? Do you want to see what Grandma James gotcha?" Haley asked Jenny
"Grandma James? Are you sure she's not yours?" Brooke asked Haley
"Yes I'm sure!" Said Haley exasperated. "Don't you think I would remember expulsing a baby? I'm sure I would!" She added with sarcasm. "You know my mother and I..."
"Our mother" tried Brooke
"Whatever...I'm glad you remember though. I'm sure she's going to be pleased." She concentrated her attention to Jenny again "So do you want me to open the present?" Jenny giggled, "Of course you do!!"
Haley had trouble opening the present with only one hand. Brooke wanted to help her but she knew that her sister would reject her again. She decided to just stay silent, which was clearly not in her habits. She hates me, she really does she could not help repeating in her head.
"Okay Jenny bunny lets see if this thing is working." Haley said after opening up the Winnie the pooh bear
Haley looked straight into Brookes' eyes when she recorded on the bear. "Haley will like Brooke when hell freezes over. So Jenny lets listen to what the bear has to say. "
Haley pressed the button and the bear repeated what she has said. Haley pressed the button again and again. And smiled "I just love that bear!"
"I get it Hales!" Shouted Brooke upset. "You don't like me! Well I can get use to it." She knew deep down she was lying to herself. Being rejected by her sister was harder than she thought.
Haley seemed surprised. "First off, don't call me hales. Only my friends and family can. So if you need to talk to me you call me Haley. Secondly don't ever shout when Jenny is around! Do you get it or I need to repeat slowly?" Haley added bitterly.
"Whether you like it or not I am family so get over it Hales..." Brooke said just to be spiteful. Haley squinted her eyes in anger but quickly started laughing when Jenny pushed the bear's hand and it said "Haley will like Brooke when hell freezes over." Jenny giggled on the bed next to Haley not knowing what was going on, but loving her new teddy bear and hearing Haley's voice.
Brooke knew she had to get out of there before she killed her sister so she walked through the bathroom and into Peyton's room. "Arrrg!!" Said Brooke lying on Peyton's bed.
"It's that bad huh?" Peyton asked folding her clothes.
"It's even worst!" Added Brooke sadly. "She hates me! She really does!"
"Oh come on Brooke!" Said Peyton sitting on the bed beside Brooke. "It can't be that bad. I mean your sister doesn't really know you. Give her some time, she'll come around."
Brooke sighed. "I don't know Peyton...I don't think time will help. Only a miracle could."
Peyton wanted to make Brooke laugh. "Time will help Brooke. Everybody hated you at first but with time we got use to you!"
"Since when are you so bitchy?!" Asked Brooke shocked
"Well I've learned from the best! Isn't it Brooke?" Said Peyton Smiling.
"That's exactly the problem Peyt...that's the problem." Added Brooke with tears in her eyes and silently streaming down her cheeks.
"What happened between you two?" Peyton asked cautiously she knew this was a sore topic for her friend.
"Well the B. James you know wasn't that nice to Haley when she came and stayed with me and my dad." Brooke said
"What happened?" Peyton coaxed.
"5 years ago we knew each other but we weren't really friends you and me and I wasn't dating broody. Haley and me talked on the phone every month but she decided to spend a week with our dad and me. I was a bitch to Haley. She liked this guy Dean do you remember him? His last name was Smith?"
At this Peyton shook her head no.
"Well anyways... I was very jealous of Haley back then. I don't even know why but I knew she was a lot smarter than me." Brooke stopped talking for a minute. She didn't know how to put what she did in words it was so terrible.
"And?" Tried Peyton expecting the worst.
"I knew Haley never had a boyfriend and I used to make fun of her with that. But when I saw her the last time, my dad forced me to take her to a party." Added Brooke grimacing. "Once there, Dean came to say hi and I could see Haley's' eyes lighting up. I thought that he would not even look at her but he did! They spent all night talking and joking. At the end of the night I saw him kiss her goodnight. I was really jealous."
"You were jealous?!" asked Peyton surprised. "Come on you could have anybody back then and you still can!! I don't get it."
"I was jealous because she would have had everything. She would have been better than me!! I mean brains, boy and she's pretty!" Said Brooke trying to defend her old self. "So...I decided to go after him and well... I took him from her." Added Brooke really ashamed of herself. " Haley caught us up kissing. She ran home crying I ran after her and...and I started to laugh!" Added Brooke red with shame
"You did what? I can't believe it!" said Peyton incredulous
"Well you better, but that's not the worst part."
"How can it get worst?" asked Peyton "Did you kill her cat or something?"
"No. She didn't have one! I'm loosing myself there. So the worse part is that I told her she was ugly, a real ugly duckling and that Dean came to her just to have me!" Brooke sighed, "it not even true you know? I lied to him to be sure he'd kiss me. He really liked Hales actually but I told him she sent me to break up with him. After that she left and we haven't talked since."
"No you didn't!!" said Peyton frowning "You really were a backstabbing bitch back then"
"I know I was and I know what I did was wrong and I am so ashamed of what I did back then but I have changed and I want to get to know my sister. I have realized that family is important I mean just look at hotshots!" Brooke finally let all the tears and pain she felt for doing that to her sister hit her after telling Peyton.
All Peyton could do was hold the crying girl in her arms, "Everything's going to be okay" Peyton told her hoping for the best. "Eventually you two will talk and work everything out," Peyton told her.
"So what made you come in here?" Peyton asked.
"Our mom bought Jenny a Winnie the pooh bear"
"Okay and that made you break down how?" Peyton asked confused.
"It records your voice and Haley said 'Haley will like Brooke when hell freezes over.'" At this Peyton was trying hard to hold in the laughter
"Oh Brooke!! Don't take it so bad! It's not such a terrible thing to say!" Said Peyton still trying to contain her laugh
"I mean she is just being a bit childish here! She could say things a lot worse believe me!" Added Peyton
"No she couldn't the baby was there! I could see all the hate in her eyes?" Brooke added
"Are you sure it was hate? I'm sure its just pain mixed with anger. "Peyton sighed "Honestly Brooke what did you expect? You didn't even apologize about what you did! What did you think that she was going to say? "Oh Brooke my lovely and loving sister!! I missed you so much!""
"Well... maybe not that... but she could've shown me a little love!!" said Brooke pouting.
"Let her the time to discover who you're now. She seems pretty mature and smart. She'll come around eventually" Peyton said holding Brooke hand
"Oh I know! Maybe we can baby-sit the little girl!! To leave Haley and Jake some "alone time" if you see what I mean" said Brooke winking. "She will see how responsible I've become"
"I don't know if it's a good idea Brooke... I mean a baby it's a great responsibility. Jake won't just give you the baby," Added Peyton who in reality was just sick in imagining Haley and Jake together
Yes Peyton Elizabeth Sawyer was jealous! She finally admitted it to herself.
