Chapter 18
The next morning Peyton and Lucas were awoken by aloud knocking. Lucas sighed as he looked at the clock " who the hell is that?" he said, as he sat up. He rubbed his eyes, then looked over at his wife. " I'll get it." he told her then kissed her before walking out to the front door. Peyton sat there biting her bottom lip, she had a pretty good idea who it was.
" what the hell?" Lucas said as he open the door to see both his parents standing there.
" here " his mom said as she handled him an envelope.
" what is this?"
" I called my lawyer last night he faxed me your Annulment papers." Dan said
" I told you guys we are not ending our marriage. "
" Lucas you have no say, you are sixteen we are in charger of you till you are eighteen. " Karen said
" you can't make us do this ma, I love her and she loves me. Why can't you let us be happy?"
" Lucas all I want is for you to be happy, I love you, but marriage at a young age doesn't always end happily, you two are just going to end up hating each other."
"No we won't "
" son, I love that you want to be there for Peyton that show how much of a good heart you have, she is a lucky girl to have someone care for her as much as you do. But I honestly think you two are way over your head. Look sign the papers, you two can still continue to date. Then once your eighteen if you two are still together. Then you have our blessing to get married."
"No!"
Karen narrowed her eyes at him, " Lucas we are giving you twenty four hours for you two to sign this. If you don't then I will take matters in to my own hands." Karen said to him in a serious tone then she walked out the door.
Dan looked at his son, " Lucas she just wants what's best for you."
" if that was true then she would know Peyton is what's best for me." Lucas said joking his father in the eye.
Dan just sighed, then walked out the door Lucas slammed the door, then went in throw the papers in the trash can.
" you okay?" Peyton asked, as she walked over to him. She wrapped her arms around him.
" yeah looks like we got a battle on our hands." he said, as he pulled her close to him.

" I love you to" she said, as she kissed him. " come on let me show you how much I love you." she said, as she pulled him to their bedroom.
Later that night Lucas walked into his and Peyton's apartment smiling, after speeding the afternoon making love to his beautiful wife. Nathan called wanting Him to come shot around at the river court Peyton insisted that he went.
"baby" he called as he shut the door. " I got something for you" He walked to the bedroom smiling then frown when he realized she wasn't in there. He called her cell but got her voicemail. " hey wifey where are you, I miss you, come home soon, love you" he hung up then walked to the kitchen, he laid down the roses that he brought her on the counter. The grabbed an apple, as he took a bite of the apple something caught his eye. He frowns, as he picks up a white envelope with his name on it. He's heart breaks before he even open it. He sat down as tears started to fall, he knew this was bad news, he starts to read it

Two years later,
Peyton moved to Florida with her aunt, she did call in tell her mom, where she was but asked that she didn't tell Lucas or anyone that asked, Anna moved to Florida a year after Peyton did, She show up on her sister's door step crying to Peyton, telling her how sorry she was for not listening to her, Bruce and Anna divorce after a year of marriage, Bruce got drunk one night and told Anna that he was only marring her to get to closer to Peyton. Anna throw him out the next day...
It was a beautiful fall morning, Peyton and Brooke were walking to class, After Peyton left Tree Hill, she in Brooke connected again. So when Brooke applied to UNC, so do Peyton and by luck they both got in. They were sharing an apartment off campus, Brooke was in a serious relationship with a wonderful guy Julian Baker, Peyton was just happy that Brooke was able to let go of Jake and that they had their friendship back.
"Well, my class is over there, so I'll see you later " Brooke said, as she ran off to catch up with her boyfriend. Peyton just nodded, she smiled as she watched Brooke with Julian, it was moments like this that made her miss Lucas. She shook her head, she was starting college in promised Brooke she would try to move on, it's been two years and she hasn't moved on, she always wondered if Lucas moved on, if he was happy, if he hated her, what would he say to her if they saw each other again. She sighed loudly like that would ever happen, it's been two year and fate hasn't surprised her yet.
"Peyton" a voice yelled, as she started to walk again, she turn towards the voice, "Peyton Sawyer is that you?" the voice asked
Peyton's eyes widen "Haley James?" Peyton smiled, as she walked towards the brown hair girl, she used to call a friend. "Wow"
"Oh My God!" Haley said, as she ran to her, hugging her tightly, "I can't believe it, how are you?"
"I'm good, How are you?"
"I'm great, I'm married now" she said, as she shown Peyton her ring,
"Wow, who's the lucky guy?" Peyton asked, as she looked past Haley, noticing another person she thought she knew, Haley looked at what she was looking at. "You and Nathan huh?" she said, as she got a closer look at the guy coming towards them. But before Haley could answer Peyton was been brought into another hug.
"Well. Look who it is" Nathan said, as he continue to hug her. " We always wondered what happen to you, you kind of just drop of the face of the earth." he said, pulling back, staring at her
Peyton knew he was upset, " I'm sorry Nathan, I'm sorry to both of you, I didn't mean not to call or anything, it's just the days turned into weeks, weeks turn into months and so on."
"So your a student here?" Haley asked her happily,
"Yeah, actually, Brooke and I both are, I wasn't really sure about the whole college thing, but Brooke talked me into."
"So do you even miss Lucas?" Nathan asked, coldly
"Nathan" Haley yelled,
"Sorry Hales I just wondering, you know she pretty much killed him."
Peyton looked down at the ground, "I..." She began, but really didn't know what to say.
"Look just to warned you" Haley said, as she noticed how Peyton's face fell at the mince of Lucas's name, " He is...
Peyton looked up at Haley as she was talking, but her eyes noticed someone else and this someone else made her heart stop. "Lucas" she whispered softly,
Haley and Nathan both watched her, watch Lucas, who was talking to a brown hair girl, she watched as he laughed and smiled, and the girl touched his cheek, so he did move on, she finally got her answer. "I have to go, sorry, you know first week here it's pretty busy. " she told them with a fake smile, "Oh congrats on the whole marriage thing, see you guys later" she turned away fast. She didn't want them to see her tears.
Lucas looked over in noticed his brother and sister in law, he excused himself from the pretty brown hair girl, and walked over to them "Hey guys" he said happily. He noticed the looks on their faces "What's wrong?"
Haley and Nathan share a look, both wondering if they should tell him or not the last two years have been really hard on him, After Peyton left Lucas moved in with his Grandpa, and refuse to talk to Dan or Karen "Luke," Nathan begins, "You remember the talk we had before coming here, "
Lucas looked at him, and shrugged his shoulders, "Yeah" he told him, wondering what that had to do with anything, Lucas looked at Haley and then back at Nathan.. "You told me it was time to let Peyton go," he sighed and rolled his eyes, "I told you guys, I would try this year, I have accepted that Peyton and I are over."
"Really?" Haley asked, as she stared at him,
"Yes Hales, why are y...
"She's here" Nathan told him cutting him off,
Lucas looks at his brother, "What? " he asked, clearly don't understanding "What do you mean she's hear?"
"She go's to school here Luke, we just ran into her." Haley told him sadly,
"Wow" was all he could say, he thought about her everyday, he called her for two weeks straight after she left, he always got her voicemail, she never called him back. When he try to call her on her birthday he found out she changed her number. He always wondered if she thought about him, if she missed him, like he missed her, did she still love him, like he did her,
"You okay"
"I should get to class, I'll see you guys tonight," he said, as he walked away.
"You know he still loves her and I think she still loves him" Nathan said, as he watched his brother slowly walk away,
"I have an idea" Haley said, as she spotted Brooke walking towards them, "Come on" she said, pulling her husband with her.
Later that night, Peyton laid in her bed, She had a really bad day after seen Lucas's for the first time in two years, He was still cute, still able to make her heart beat fast and her palms sweat, She couldn't believe he was attending the same college as she was, she never even thought about it, she always knew Nathan's choice was Duke, so she just assumed that's where he would go,
"Hey best friend" Brooke said, as she walked into the room, "Why you so down grey cloud?"
"Grey cloud?" Peyton repeated her word with a laugh. "I'm not down"
"Really" she said, with a raised eye brow, "Cause if I was in your shoes and just found out my ex boyfriend/ex husband was going to the same college with me, I think I would be flipping out, especially, if I was still in love with him."
Peyton sighed, "He moved on Brooke, I'm pathetic I have spend the last two years, waiting on fate to bring us together, thinking once we see each other we would just fall into each others arms, I never really thought he would move on" she cried, as Brooke hugged her, she didn't say anything she just hugged her,
"Come to dinner with me Peyt, I won't take no for an answer," Brooke told her, Peyton rolled her eyes but agree anyways.
Brooke and Julian sat beside each other as Peyton sat on the other side of Brooke, "Brooke if it's just us three why do we need six chairs" Peyton asked, but before Brooke could make up a lie, Peyton saw Nathan and Haley, "Brooke did you invited them to dinner?"
"Yes"
"Why"
"Cause I wanted to and they use to be your friends and you told me you missed them"
Peyton sighed then put on a fake smile as the two joined them, she noticed that Nathan sat beside Julian and Haley sat beside him, still one seat empty and it just happen to be the seat beside her. She was about to question it when she heard "Sorry I'm late" she knew that voice, she still hears that voice in her dreams, she didn't look up or look over as he sat down next to her. She felt his eyes on her,
Lucas looked her up and down as best as he could since she was sitting down, she gotten more beautiful them he remembered, he noticed that she wouldn't look at him and that alone hurt him. "Hey Peyton" he whispered softly,
"Hey Lucas," she said without looking at him, she picked up her menu, in pretended to read it.
Lucas just shook his head, he picked up his menu you, pretending that her acting like he wasn't there wasn't hurting him, The other four at the table exchanged looks, then Brooke decided to start up a conversation. About half hour into their dinner, Brooke was still talking about fashion and other stuff that neither Lucas are Peyton cared about, Lucas would look at Peyton, and she would look at him, when she knew he wasn't looking.
"Would you like to dance," a tall young good looking brown hair guy asked, Peyton as he approach the table.
Peyton smiled, up at him, " I..."
"No she's not insist..." Brooke stopped at peyton's words.
"Yes, I love to" she told the man, as she glared at Brooke, "Excuse me everyone," she said, as she stood up in took the guys hand. All eyes went to Lucas, as he watched Peyton dance with this stranger.
" I thought you guys said she would be happy to see me?" He asked, the four at the table, as his eyes stay on Peyton.
" Lucas, she misses you, believe me I know she does, " Brooke try to assure him.
" Well, it sure don't seem liked it, she wouldn't look at me, she won't talk to me, and now she's dance with that jerk."
" Then go stop her." Lucas turn his head and locked eyes with the guy beside Brooke, "Look man, I don't know you, you don't know me, and I've only know Peyton for year maybe. But I do know, she still has feeling s for you, she hasn't dated I try to set her up, but she refused, yes, she has told me she's over you, but the other day I went into her room to brought a pen, and I noticed the pictures around her room."
" Pictures of what?" Haley asked, since Lucas was just staring at Julian,
"Well. Mostly of you all," he said, pointing to Nathan, Haley and Lucas, "A much of pictures of her in you together. "
Lucas looked back at the dance floor, and watched as Peyton laughed with this guy, and then the guy whispered something in her ear. That was enough to bring Lucas to his feet. He walked over to the couple. "Can I cut in" he asked, as he watched Peyton would was looking the other way, acting as if she didn't see him.
" No were good" the guy told him and continue to dance with her
" Look man, I would like to dance with her, we need to talk"
" Well man, wait till were done and if the girl wants to then you can dance with her okay?"
"Peyt," Lucas said, trying to get her to look at him.
"Man, back the hell up" the guy told her, as he pushed Lucas, "What the hell is your problem?" he shook his head, " What is she your ex or you jealous cause she is moving on with someone better?"
Lucas just smiled, he want to push the guy back or punch him in the fucking face, but he didn't "No I'm not her ex.'s..." He said, as he looked at Peyton who was now looking at the floor, and he knew what he was about to say would get her to look at him. " She's my wife!" he said, loudly enough that even the four at their table heard. And he was right Peyton's head snapped up and their eyes locked for the first time. The place went quite, both blondes so losted in each others eyes, that they didn't even notice when the guy walked away, leaving them standing beside each other.
" What are you talking about Lucas?" Peyton asked as she crossed her arms over her chest. " Were not married"
"Yes we are, you signed the papers I never did"
Peyton's eyes widen, "Why didn't you?" she whispered, tears glazed her eyes
" Because you don't give up on someone you love, I love you Peyton, I still do, when I said I do to you, I meant it. " He told her as he raised his left hand up showing her his ring. " I haven't took it off, and I won't take it off. You said that you believe that fate will lead us back together, so I believe it to"
She took a step back from him, as he show her his ring, tears started to fall, she didn't speak, she just looked at him. Lucas watched as she reached up in grabbed the chain around her neck. She slowly, pulled the chain out of her shirt, and then he saw it, her ring, She was wearing it around her neck, " I love you to Lucas" she whipsered, as she smiled at him. He pulled her to him, and kissed her spinning her around the club, as their four friends watched with smiles on their faces.
