Author's Note: Just a little background info because a couple of people have asked what happened between Lucas and Peyton – I'm lazy and can't be bothered making up a back story so I'm stealing the story line of the show and just saying that everything up to the season 4 finale happened except Lucas and Peyton broke up amicably because they didn't want to do long distance and obviously they didn't take the paths set out for them by Mark. Lucas went to UC on the West coast and Peyton went to NYU on the East coast. Anything else, ask and I shall let you know – and by that I mean make something up :)

Oh and did I say that Nathan and Haley still live in Tree Hill? Let's say they live in Boston because they will probably be popping in a lot and Tree Hill is pretty far from New York for a day trip.

Peyton was relaxing on her couch early Saturday morning eating cereal and mindlessly watching cartoons when a loud knock echoed through her apartment. Peyton slowly moved from the couch to the front door, unaware she was supposed to be expecting anyone that morning. Looking through her peephole, she jumped excitedly upon recognising the face on the other side and quickly moved to unlock the door and open it wide for her visitor.

"Luke!" She happily exclaimed as she jumped at the man standing in her doorway, enveloping him in a hug.

"And what are we? Chopped liver?" Nathan complained as he dragged two suitcases past the embracing couple and into the apartment. Haley hit his arm playfully as she followed him through the doorway carrying Jamie with her. Peyton laughed as she ended the hug and turned to her oldest friends.

"Of course not Nate. You're my very cute ex-boyfriend, yes you are." She teased in a baby voice as she pinched his cheeks playfully. He swatted away her hands as he pulled her in for a hug. Peyton laughed as she finally pushed him away and hugged Haley, and incidentally Jamie who was still in her arms.

"Come sit down." Peyton motioned for everyone to move into the living room. "What are you guys doing here anyway?" she questioned as they all sat and she went to the kitchen to fix some coffee. Nathan rolled his eyes as he motioned to the suitcases near the doorway.

"Oh we just thought we'd drop by unexpectedly and bring about a lifetimes worth of stuff with us." He commented sarcastically as he accepted the mug of coffee from Peyton as she came back into the living room.

"Huh?" Peyton asked confusedly before noticing the suitcases and various boxes. "Oh!" Peyton exclaimed as it all clicked to place in her head and she realised she was in fact expecting people that morning.

"You did remember we were coming today, didn't you Peyt?" Lucas asked as she sat next to him on the couch.

"Of course I remembered." Peyton rolled her eyes as she lightly punched him in the shoulder. "I even have everything set up in the guest bedroom, which I guess is technically your bedroom now." Peyton smiled brightly at him.

"Great." Lucas commented as he stood up, placing his mug on the coffee table. "I'll just go and check it out, see how it suits me." Lucas went to walk down the hallway, hoping to call Peyton's bluff in setting up the guest bedroom. Peyton grabbed his arm pulling him back down on the couch.

"Don't be silly Luke, you'll have plenty of time to do that later. Let's just relax and catch up." Peyton patted his knee as she turned back to Nathan and Haley who were looking on amusedly at the pair. Haley suddenly stood, holding Jamie tightly on her hip.

"We only talked on the phone last night Peyton. We'll leave you and Luke to get settled and we'll come up next weekend for a little housewarming." She motioned for Nathan to follow as she went to the front door. Nathan opened his mouth as if to protest but was silenced with a look from Haley.

"Haley, you guys don't have to leave. It won't take us long to get settled and then we can go grab some lunch." Peyton protested.

"No, no Peyton. We have heaps to do at home so it's better if we go now." Haley insisted as she pushed Nathan out the door who didn't even get the chance to say goodbye as the door closed behind her. Peyton sought out Lucas as he was clearing the mugs from the coffee table and taking them to the kitchen.

"So that whole thing about me having already set everything up." Peyton started meekly. "It's not exactly true."

Lucas looked over at her and couldn't help but laugh.

"I already figured that out myself especially when you forcefully stopped me from going to check it out." He observed, leaning on the sink as he faced her. Peyton reached over the counter and shoved him in the chest.

"Woah, when did you get so aggressive? That's like the second time you've hit me since I arrived about 15 minutes ago" Lucas commented as he jokingly looked at his watch.

"Shut up. I know you enjoy it when I touch you." Peyton commented sarcastically, expecting Lucas to laugh along with her, but at his stony expression that caused a weird vibe to emerge in the kitchen, she quickly changed the subject.

"How about we get that room set up for real?" She asked as she moved down the hallway. When she didn't hear him moving from his spot, she popped her head back in the kitchen and raised her eyebrows at him.

"Come on Scott. I'm not carrying all of your crap for you. Get a move on." She pointed at the suitcases near the front door and motioned he follow as she headed to his new room.

Author's Note: Ta da! So I hardly ever write fan fictions and if I do I just do it to get one idea out and can't really make it into a worthwhile story but reviews push me to try harder and get out chapters for you guys so pretty pretty please review because I love them. And I have no idea where this story is going so reviews will force me to make up something :)
