A week had flown by, since Peyton's meeting with the head of the university's Behavioral Sciences department. It had also been a week since she last talked to Lucas or see him. That part was hurting her deep, but nothing could prepare her for what she had to do today.
Today she had her session with Lucas, at one clock. Will be the first time she has seen him and a week. She knew he was upset with her, just by the messages he had left on her voice mail or the little notes he left on her door.
She nervously sat at her desk, watching the clock, part of her was happy to see him. She had missed him so much this past week. But the other part, the part that knew today. was the last day she will ever see him, unless they bump into each other on campus or something. Because today was the last day he was go to be her client. And the last day she plan on been his girlfriend.
Dave told her that Lucas was no longer her client, And that there was a line between a therapists and their client. And she crossed it and, there was no turning back form it. She had asked if she could have the next session with him. So she could be the one to tell him about his new therapists, Dave agree as long as someone else, was in the room the whole time Lucas was there. Peyton didn't like that part and neither will Lucas, but she had no choice someone had turn their relationship in, she had no choice but to end this with him or lose her job.
"Miss Sawyer"
"Yes"
"Hey, I'm Amy Davis, I will be sitting in on your session with Mr Lucas Scott today. I'm pretty sure Dave told you about this." the pretty red hair woman said, as she looked at Peyton through the top of her brown glasses.
"Yes, he did, please sit. Um....Lucas,,,"she paused, not really sure it saying his name like that was a good idea. "I mean Mr. Scott, will be here soon." she said, in her little calm voice.
Amy and Peyton sat there in silents, Amy was writing away, Peyton wasn't even sure what the hell she was writing about. All she was worried about was Lucas, and seen him again.
"Miss Sawyer," Angle said, as she step in the door way.
"Yes"
"Mr Scott is here." Angle said, then gave Peyton a sad smile, She was aware of the little romance that was happening between Lucas and Peyton. She just never said anything. Lucas made her happy. So in Angle eyes she didn't see where Peyton was doing in wrong. She was also aware of Peyton ending her relationship today, she wasn't she how she was doing it. Especially with that Amy woman in the room with them.
"Send him in." Peyton whispered.
Lucas walked in, looking like hell, he wasn't smiling that amazing smile she love, his eyes looked dull and cold. He looked like he had been in a bar fight and the other guy won.
"Mr Scott." Peyton said, in her professional voice. A voice that Lucas raised in eyebrow to. "How are you?"
"I'm on cloud nine, Miss Sawyer." He said, in a wise-cracking tone. Clearly pissed off, that she was acting like she didn't know him.
A tone that Peyton ignored. "Um, Lucas Scott, please meet Amy Davis. she will be sitting in on our session today."
Lucas was shocked by this, "Why? If I may asks?" still looking at his girlfriend for some kinda of answer.
"Well, Mr. Scott, Miss Sawyer here was turn into the broad over crossing lines with a client. So I'm here today, to make sure nothing happens, other then you two talking about your stress and school or and other problems."
Lucas turn to look at Peyton, but her head was down. He was so pissed of at her this week. Thinking she was giving up on them before she even gave them a chance, but now he understood why she had been avoiding him. She was just watching her back, which made prefect sense to him. He knew how much she loved her job. That's one of the things he loved about her, how she loved to help others.
"Okay," was all he said, as he sat down in the chair. Peyton looked up at him. Wondering why he didn't say anything else. She figured he would be pissed.
"So how is everything going Lu....I mean Mr. Scott?" Peyton asked, as she got out her notebook. trying to be very serious.
Lucas smiled, at her little acted. "Everything is going good, baby,I mean Miss Sawyer." he smirk, as she rolled her eyes at him. Amy was to busy writing to hear his little slip up.
"So school is going good?"
"Yes."
"Work?"
"Great."
"Music?"
"Amazingly great?"
"Friends, and roommates?" She asked, remembering when he told her his roommates party all the time.
"I actually moved out the beginning of the week." He said, as her head popped up from her note pad.
"What? I mean why? did something happen?" she asked, as she looked at him. She nervously chewed on her pen, as she waited his reply.
"Well, I got my on place, I little apartment off campus, I had decided to take some money I have been saving. I really needed my own place."
"Why is that?"
"Well, my roommates, prefer to stay up into the late morning hours and, then bring girls over all the time. And I have early classes and work and I'm only a one woman man," He said, as he winked at her. " So I don't need girls throwing themselves at me. When I'm pretty happy with what I got. "He said, as he smiled that amazing smile at her. "Plus this way my girl can stay with me, instead of me always staying with her. That way I could fix her breakfast and treat her like the queen that she is."
"I see." Peyton said, her heart was beating fast.
The room went silent for a short moment. Both lovers looking at each other. Peyton wanted nothing more then to jump across the desk in kiss him, she had missed kissing him this week.
"So you have a girlfriend?" Amy asked, as she knocked the blonds from their own little world.
"Um..." Lucas looked over at her. "Yes, yes I do." he said, proudly.
"Damn, to bad." Amy whispered, as she started to writing in her note pad again.
Peyton looked over at her, giving her a cold glare, Obviously, Amy wasn't told my Dave, that Lucas was the guys she was seen. Lucas just shook his head and, smiled clearly happy that Peyton was a little jealous.
"So if everything in your world is going so good Mr. Scott, May I asks, why you look like you haven't slept in days?"
"Well, Everything school wise, job wise, music wise and, with no more roommates everything is prefect, but I was kinda down the past couple of days, I thought my girlfriend was avoiding me. "
"Why did you think that?" Amy asked, as if she was his therapists or something.
Peyton lean back in her chair, listening closely to what he was about to say.
"Um.. you see last week I told her that I love her and, she said she thinks she is falling form me. And we share an unforgettable night. A night that let me know that she was feeling what I was feeling, but she was trying not to rush into anything, she had been in love before and, got hurt and, she doesn't want to get hurt again. Which I understand completely."
"So,, you told her you love her and then what happen to make her avoid you?"
"I was calling her and, she didn't call me back. I left notes on her door, I even called her Best friend, who said she had no idea what was going on. I think she was scared, but I know she would come around once she realises that I'm not going in where." Lucas said, as he looked over at Peyton who was looking at her desk. "And that what I said was true I love her."
"Well, if she is to scared to tell you how she really feels and, she doesn't call you back, maybe she isn't the one for you. Maybe you should move on to someone who gets you." Amy said, in sweet voice, like she was hitting on him.
"She loves me, I know it, she knows it to and, I will wait forever it I have to. Because I know one day she will say those words back to me. And just for your info, no one in this world including my mom, my dad, my brother, and my best friend who happens to be a girl, Gets me like Pe.." he stopped, he didn't want to say her name, "Like my girlfriend does, she beautiful, so incredible, sweet, caring, amazing, understanding, smart, so very smart, she is a amazing woman. She is the most remarkable woman I have ever met, there is no other women young or old that compares to her. She is everything I have ever hoped for and dreamed for."
Peyton looked at him, clearly shocked that he just said all that especially to a stranger. He was definitely making it hard to break up with him.
"Well, She is one luckly girl if you asks me, Huh Peyton?" Amy said, as she started to write again.
"Yes she is." Peyton whispered, but Lucas heard her loud in clear.
They sat there talking for the next thirty minutes, when Amy noticed the time. "Well, Mr. Scott, it was nice meeting you. I will see you next week, Thursday at 2, is that okay with you?"
"Yeah, " He said, unsure what she meant by seeing her. "So you will be sitting in on all my session with Miss Sawyer?"
"Oh, no I will b...
"Lucas, Amy here will be your new therapists from now on. I had asked her to take you on, for me." Peyton said, as she stood up. "I have a busy workload in need to clear some space, I hope you don't mine." giving him, her fake smile.
Lucas wasn't to happy about this,:" Do whatever you have to do, Miss Sawyer" he said, then turn back to Amy. "Miss Davis, Thursday at 2 is fine," then he walked at of the room.
That evening, as Peyton was locking up her office. Thankful that Amy was gone, she was really starting to get on Peyton's nervous. She kept talking about how cute Lucas was and how it sucked that he was off the market.
"Peyton." Angle said, as Peyton walked past her desk.
"Yeah."
"Can I talk to you for a moment?"
"Sure, is everything okay?"
"Well, first, Lucas Scott, as me to give you this." She said, as she handed Peyton a folded piece of paper. Peyton open it, it was the address to his new apartment. "And I wanted to talk to you about Lucas." Angle said, causing Peyton to give her a confused look.
"What about him?"
"This is none of my business, but I know about you and Lucas."
"Excuse me?"
"I know about you and Lucas and your little affair, Whatever the head people are calling it. I just wanted to tell you that I feel that it's wrong what they are doing to you. You can't help who you fall in love with a.....
"Angle, we are not in love." Peyton said, hopping to drop the subject.
"Well, maybe you don't want to admit to it yet, but he is very much in love with you. I heard what he said today. And he seems like a great guy, and you deserve someone to be happy with. And I hope you reconsider before you break up with him tonight." Angle, then continue at the face Peyton was making. "I over heard you talking to Brooke on the phone."
"Look, I have thought about it and, I have to do this, there is no way around it." That was her plan, to go to him tonight an end things for good. She just hopes he'll let her.
"He just seems so.....
" why are you telling me this?" Peyton said, interrupting whatever she was going to say, she already knows how much of a great guy Lucas is. She doesn't need her to remind her, of what she is giving up."
" I'm telling you this, because, I know who went to the broad about your relationship with Lucas."
"You do?"
"Yes, I was in Dave's office, when he walked."
"When who walked in?" Peyton asked, but in the back of her mind she knew who is was.
"I'm I think his name was Nathan Scott."
