The girls were sitting on the couch waiting for the guys to get downstairs, dicussing cheerleading tryouts.

"Well that blonde girl was good."

"Erika? She's a clean teen Brooke !"

"Ewwww. Anywhoo what's taking the guys so long. I so don't wanna be lagte for the first day of junior year!"

"Brooke calm down, it's not like it's senior year. Besides showing up fashionably late is our thing."

"Not for the first day of school! You're losing it tutor girl."

"Girls, girls calm down."

"Shut up Peyton."

"BOYS GET YOUR BUTTOXES DOWN HERE! DON'T MAKE ME USE MY DIRTY LANGUAGE!"

"Wow Brooke you sure let them have it."

"Bitch."

"Whore."

"Slut."

"I Love You."

"I Love You Too."

"You guys are weird." Brooke and Haley looked at eachother before grabbing a pillow off the couch and launching themselves at Peyton, who was in the chair.

"Now this is how we should be greeted every morning."

The girls, now in a tangle of arms and legs on the floor, abruptly stopped what they were doing.

"Uh hi.."

"Hi Hales...mind explaining what's going on?"

"Nope." Haley said standing up and helping Brooke and Peyton up. "We need to get going. Lets go."

"And that guys is the aftermath of a fight between Nathan and Haley !"

Nathan sighed,

"Shut up Luke."

"Man, just tell her you love her and this will all bed over with."

"No, you know the plan."

"Brooke..."

"Yeah Hales?"

"Do you think Nathan is going to break up with me?"

"I don't know Haley."

"I mean he never tells me he loves me, and he thinks that I don't trust him. And we had that huge fight about it last night."

"He's not gonna break up with you Hales."

"But he hasn't talked to me at all today Peyton."

The girls were sitting at lunch discussing Nathan and Haley's reletionship when Lucas walked in.

"Ladies and Gentlemen. Can I please have your attention. My cousin Nathan has something that he would like to say."

Nathan walked through the doors.

"Haley Elizabeth-Bob James I'm sorry. I'm not one for words, thats Luke so I borrowed some words from Scotty McCreery.

I know I'm still young But, I know how I feel I might not have too much experience But, I know when love is real.
By the way my heart starts pounding When I look into your eyes I might look a little silly Standing with my arms stretched open wide.
I love you this big Eyes have never seen... this big No-one's ever dreamed... this big And I'll spend the rest of my life Explaining what words cannot describe but, I'll try I love you this big
I'll love you to the moon and back I'll love you all the time Deeper than the ocean And higher than the pines.
Cause girl, you do something to me Deep down in my heart I know I look a little crazy Standing with my arms stretched all apart.

I love you Haley."

"Oh Nathan, I love you too."

Nathan walked over to Haley who stood there with tears in her eyes.

"Haley why are you crying? Isn't this what you wanted?"

"Happy tears Nathan, happy tears."

The couple stood like that embraced in eachothers arms for quite awhile.

"Come on you too, time for class."

"Jaaaaaaakkkkkeeeeeee whyyyy must you ruin every moment for them?"

"Because it annoys you and Peyton." They stuck their tongues out at him.

"Come on guys, lets go."

So the group walked to class, one group, two unbreakable bonds, and six friends who had no clue that a year from now things weren't going to be as simple as they have been. If only someone had warned them, then maybe things would've turned out differently.
