They all walked away from Peyton, like she was never in their lives. All they saw was a murderer, someone who murdered their best friend. Lucas and the old man were already gone, not giving Peyton any more of his time. Haley shook her head, she didn't understand why Peyton was here. Haley held onto her right hand, it was swelling up a little. The pain was so unreal but she thought Peyton deserved and she didn't regret a single thing. They all walked inside, saying goodbye to Haley but Peyton was trying to pick herself up from the ground.
"What the hell was she thinking?" Millie shook her head, watching Peyton trying to pick herself off in the backyard. Millie crossed her arms, judging the blonde girl. She didn't know Peyton much but she did know Brooke. And Brooke was something out of this world, she didn't deserve what happened to her. "I mean, she knew that it was coming for her, right?" Millie looked over at Haley but Haley was filled with anger. She didn't want to speak or look at anyone. She just kept her eyes on Peyton, hoping that she wouldn't get up from the ground.
"She was lucky that Lucas didn't punch her," Skills chimed in, raising his eyebrow.
"No," Mouth said to them, everyone turned and looked at him. They had to focus on something else, they didn't want to give Peyton another second of their time. "Lucas wouldn't do that. That's why he called her here." Mouth confessed to all of them.
"You knew that she was going to be here?" Nathan said angrily, taking a step towards Mouth but he wasn't going to do anything. He was so angry with Peyton and now he was angry with Lucas. Mouth put his hands up like he was going to surrender.
"Lucas called and told me that there was a letter for Peyton. He asked if I could call her and meet him at the river court. I guess she wanted to surprise everyone," Mouth shrugged his shoulders.
"Why would Lucas do that?" Millie said, not understanding the motive.
"Because that's what Brooke would do...that's what she wanted. He did it for Brooke." Haley finally spoke up, now there was just silence. Peyton finally picked herself up and slowly started to walk towards them.
"Does that mean he forgives Peyton?" Skills asked Haley.
"I don't think so, man. He seems pretty torn up about Brooke." Nathan said to him.
"But Brooke's not-" Millie started to say but they were cut off by Peyton. She walked up, whipping the blood from her nose and formed a cocky smile. She told herself that she wouldn't let them see her weak.
"You can go now, you've got what you wanted." Haley said to her, Peyton chuckled, shaking her head. This isn't what she wanted.
"This isn't what I wanted." Peyton said to her. "I don't know what I did wrong." Peyton shrugged her shoulders.
"Seriously? Peyton, you killed Brooke!" Millie yelled at her.
"From what I've heard-" Peyton raised her eyebrows, looking at all of them.
"It doesn't matter. You have to go, you need to leave town." Haley informed her. Peyton didn't want to leave, she felt like she needed to stay here.
"I'm not leaving, in fact. I'm staying until I take my last dying breath." Peyton smiled, raising her chin.
"Well, in that case," Millie bundled her fist, taking a step towards her but Mouth stopped. "Your right mouth, I don't want Peyton to do me like she did Brooke." Millie stood beside her husband.
"It was an accident," Peyton pleaded.
"That accident, took my best friend away." Haley reminded her. Peyton shook her head, this isn't what she wanted to happen. She thought everyone would forgive her and move on but again, this happened just a few weeks ago. "What did you think? After Brooke was gone, we would just forgive you?" Haley asked her.
"Yes." Peyton said to her.
"Well, we don't. I don't think we can ever forgive you for this and if Brooke was here, she wouldn't either." Haley snared at her.
"How would you know what Brooke wanted?" Peyton raised her voice, wanting to hurt Haley but Nathan stood in front of her.
"Easy." Nathan asked her. Peyton rolled her eyes, taking a step back.
"Because I just know and because you weren't there, I was." Haley said to her. "I mean," Haley pushed her hair back with her hands. She didn't understand Peyton and what she wanted. "You always said that people always leave," Haley laughed. "But Brooke was always there..." Haley told her. Peyton could remember when her and Brooke had this conversation. "And you betrayed her over and over again but not this time. You get the hell out of this town or I will make your life a living hell."
"How?" Peyton smirked, thinking that Haley was bluffing.
"Mouth and I are reporters for the news." Millie crossed her arms, raising her eyebrows with a slight smirk. Peyton's smile faded, there were endless possibilities to what Millie and Mouth might do on the air.
"And I'm a assistant coach of the ravens, so that means I know every coach out there and every parent. News travels fast." Skills warned her.
"And I'm a teacher, that means I know everyone and I'm the owner of a busy cafe. My best friend is a famous book writer and my husband is a basketball player and the coach for the ravens; you do the math." Haley said to her. Peyton paused for a moment, they all looked serious and thought that she would never have a life.
"I just wanted to make it right." Peyton said to them, not wanting to cry in front of them.
"You can't Peyton, everything is all set and done." Millie shrugged her shoulders. They all felt like there was nothing else to say, they hoped that she had the message clear and was ready to leave.
"I give you a couple days, Peyton and then your gone." Haley said to her. "Now, get the hell out of my house." Haley pointed to the door. Peyton whipped the blood from her lips and quickly walked out. Haley watched as she left and slammed the door behind her. Haley turned around to Mouth, pointing her finger at his face. "Don't ever do that again," Haley referring to Mouth calling Peyton here. Haley turned around and walked into the back, trying to clear her heard from this. She had so much anger that she wanted to kill Peyton but Brooke would want her to move on.
