I thought I'd grace you guys with a update on this fic. So here it is.

The next few weeks really sucked for me. I talked to Pete, Rarely. I missed him. I mean sure we only spent that one night together, but there was just something about him. There was something there. And now he isn't here. All my friends wont believe me when I say that me and him made-out. It kind of sucks. I mean I want those bragging rights. But without proof I have nothing. Today was another dread-full day of school. And another dread-full day of people making fun of me. You see its become this big joke at Tree hill high for everyone to act like they "see" Pete with me. They even "Talk" to Pete. Its very retarded. But if I want to graduate I have to go. I got out of bed , put a band tee on, some skinny jeans, and vans. Ah comfort. I ran a brush through my hair briefly. Then I was ready. When I arrived at school I saw Brooke. She walked over to me.

"P. Sawyer!" She said in a up beat tone.

"B. Davis!" I said back.

"Did you see Lucas today?" She asked.

I shook my head no.

"Well if you see him tell him I'm mad at him."

"Alright. But what do I say when he asked what for?"

"Say if he doesn't know he's not as smart as he says he is." With that Brooke left. "Gotta get to class." She said as she walked away.

I stood there a little shocked. I mean Brooke Davis going to class early! What am I in? An alternate universe? I looked at the clock on the wall and saw I had 5 minutes before class. When I opened my locker a piece of paper fell out. I bent over to pick it up. While I was bent over I saw feet by the paper. I looked up and was so happy with what I saw. I smiled a big smile then hugged the owner of the feet.

"When did you get here?"

"I figured it was time to come back."

"I've really missed you Jake!"

"I've missed you too." I let go of him. He looked down and saw the piece of paper. "Are you going to pick that up?" he asked.

"Oh yea." I said picking it up. It said Peyton Sawyer on the front. I opened it and read its contents.

Hey Peyton. I miss you to pieces. I'll see you around later. Look for me at lunch.
-Pete.
P.S I know kids at your school have been giving you a hard time about us, so your probably thinking this is one of them writing this. But trust me its me.

"Who's it from?" Jake asked.

"Stupid kids. Do you want to ditch so we can catch up?" I asked.

"Of course." He said putting his hand out for me to take it.

Later that day.
I just got home from my day with Jake and my phone began to ring. It was Brooke.
"Hello?" I answered it.

"Do you have any idea who was at our school today?" She just about screamed through the phone.

"Wild guess, People?" I joked.

"Ha-ha. No! Pete Wentz! He was looking for you!" She said calmly.

"Brooke don't tell me your in on this joke too?" I sighed heavily.

"Peyton there is no joke. Pete was at our school today. I have pictures to prove it!" She told me.

"I'll call you back."

I shut my phone and thought for a minute. Either Brooke was really pulling one over on me or she was telling the truth. Only one way to find out. I opened my phone and dialed.

"Hello?" The voice said on the other end.

"Were you at my school today?" I said without a hello.

"Yes. Where were you? I left you a note."

"Oh. My. God! I'm such a idiot! I thought it was stupid kids at my school who wrote that!"

"No. It was me. I'm still in town. Just not for long. Only till tomorrow night."

Of course I had plans with my ex boyfriend Jake. You see I don't even know if me and Jake are broken up. He left and didn't tell me. And now I was I guess leading Pete on. Or was I leading Jake on? I don't know!

"I have plans tonight." I said and I heard a sigh on the other end of the phone. "But I can cancel."

"You would cancel your plans for me?"

"Yes." I told him.

"I'll be there at 7." He said then all I heard was dial tone. I was so excited. Then I realized I had to call Jake and tell him everything.

"Jake?" I said as he answered.

"Yes?"

"I have to cancel tonight. I have this thing that I have to do. I totally forgot about it earlier." Yea I lied. So what! Does it make me a horrible person if I wanted to tell him I'm dating a rock-star in person? That's what I thought.
He was a little disappointed but he said it was ok. Once I hung up I began to get ready to see Pete.

Pete didn't really take me anywhere. We really just rode around in the limo talking. We would have went somewhere, but we both didn't want people coming up to us every 5 minutes asking for a atuograph or anything.

"So Peyton, who's that guy I saw you with today?" Pete asked. Crap I thought.

"Jake. He left like months ago. We were sort of a couple. But then he left." I told him.

"Let me guess, you don't know if you two are still together or not?" He said with a smile on his face.

I laughed a little. "Is it that obvious?" I asked.

"Just a little."

"Pete I'm really sorry about the whole Jake thing. I'm gonna tell him about you tomorrow."

"Its ok Peyton. You thought he was gone. Who would know he'd come back right when we became a couple." Right as he said the word couple I was taking a drink of water. I swallowed hard.

"So we are a couple?" I asked.

"That's what I tell my friends." He said.

"Ok cause I wasn't sure if this was like just a fling type thing or what." I told him.

The rest of the night was perfect. It kind of sucked when my dad called at 2 AM telling me I better get home or get grounded. So naturally I went home. I tried telling my dad was out with a member of Fall out boy and that he was leaving tomorrow, so I wanted to spend a few more hours with him, but he didn't believe me. Sucks.

The next day sucked even more. I just ran into Jake and have to tell him.

"Jake can we talk?"

"Of course Peyton. What is it?" He asked as I sat down at a table.

"Jake when you left I thought you weren't going to come back. And recently I started dating someone. I really like him. But I don't want to hurt you."

"Peyton its ok. Sure I love you. But I guess it was stupid of me to think you would wait for me." He said getting up.

"Jake, I did wait for you. But after 3 months I gave up. I figured you were never coming back."

"Peyton the fact that you thought I was never coming back hurts me. I thought you knew me better."

"Jake I'm sorry. Ok? I'm sorry."

"I have to go." Jake said leaving. He looked so sad and broken. And I caused it. Even though I knew it was the right choice, I still felt like a big pile of shit.
