After a day of shopping, Brooke drove over to Peyton's house to see her friend before heading home. Brooke helped herself and walked right in the way she always did since the door was usually unlocked. She bounced into Peyton's room and flopped down on her bed, making herself comfty as she watched her best friend turn around from a picture she had been painting. Brooke scrunched her face and said, "Not exactly cheery, in fact it's actually totally depressing but good in a weird Peyton Sawyer kind of way. So!" Brooke said, changing her tone and speaking excitedly..
"I just got back from a day of some serious shopping! Tomorrow is the first day of our sophomore year so you know that comes with an all new back to school wardrobe." Brooke smiled, satisfied with herself as her friend was finally able to get a word in.

Peyton rolled her eyes, "Yeah, Brooke of course it does. But if you'll remember I have a wardrobe that has done me well for the past several years," She nodded toward her closet which housed her clothes as well as her computer and webcam.
She set her drawing aside after contemplating it for a few seconds and then walked over to her record player and slightly turned down the rock music that had been blaring before the cheerful bundle had immersed herself into the room. "So I guess you are here to show all of your clothes that you intend to get oh so much use out of this year?"
She walked back over to the bed, crossing her arms over her concert tee, as she watched Brooke bounce around the room. She was really nothing like Peyton, and there was no reason that they should be friends, except that maybe the theory of opposites attracting was true.

"Na, I'll let you wait and be surprised." Brooke bounced over to Peyton's closet and began going through the hangers of clothes. "What are you wearing tomorrow? First impressions are everything ya know." Brooke scrunched her face as she came to a very distasteful shirt. "I told you you should have came shopping with me today, but it's okay I'm sure there's something in here. Ah ha!" Brooke said as she found a skirt, tank top, and leather jacket that would go great together. Brooke took it out and held it up for Peyton.
"This will do. So where's your kind, loving boyfriend? Haven't seen him around lately." Brooke sat herself down in Peyton's computer chair as she asked. Nate was far from kind or loving but Brooke couldn't resist.

Peyton just barely resisted rolling her eyes again, flopping back down in the middle of her bed. "Oh my lovely boyfriend is probably at the gym, where he always is. And if I know anything, his dad is there, and Nathan is going to come here any minute complaining about him yet again."
Peyton picked up the outfit that Brooke had thrown to her, and frowned, "This is not my skirt. I don't own skirts, remember? Nor am I wearing one tomorrow, thank you. Jeans will do just fine. Besides, who needs to make first impressions when your best friend is Miss Popularity and the Queen of good first impressions?" She raised an eyebrow in Brooke's direction and tossed the skirt back to Brooke, knowing she had probably left it over there at some point or another.
"Oh and P.S. I am not going to the beginning of the year bonfire this year..."

Brooke would have said something about Peyton not wearing skirts, not like it did any good, but then Peyton said she wasn't going to the bonfire and Brooke's eyes grew big. "What!" She exclaimed.
"No you have to go!" Brooke jumped up as she spoke. "Come on, you know it's something we do every year. It wouldn't be the same without you..and I can't even get a hold of Mouth for some weird reason so I need you to be my D.J. You promised!" Peyton looked at Brooke oddly, and Brooke knew it was because she actually hadn't said anything to Peyton about it yet.
"Okay so maybe you didn't but I just figured you would want to because you love doing it!" Brooke held up her skirt and added, "P.S. I thought this skirt looked familar!" Brooke finally stopped for a breathe, and she looked at her friend pleadingly, Peyton just had to go to the bonfire.

"No, I don't, and stop whining, it's not attractive," she teased her best friend. Then realized something that Brooke had said, "Mouth? Why do you need to get a hold of your summer camp nickname? You are delusional, Brooke Davis."
She sat up and tossed the shirt and jacket to the other side of her bed and crossed her legs Indian style. "As for nit going, what is the point of going to a lame bonfire where all I do is watch you take off your clothes and skinny dip with all of the guys. I get to see enough girls do that with Nathan at his jakchole parties, thank you very much. Not again."

Brooke wasn't delusional and she remembered that Peyton didn't really know about her talking to Mouth. Or Marvin McFadden as Peyt would know him as, if she even knew him. Mouth wasn't the kind of guy who hung in their crowd or even a guy Brooke would normally look at twice. In fact, she really didn't even know him but she had found out through the grapevine he was good with music so she decided to approach him about it since for the first time she was having a hard time finding someone. This year no one good for the job was around.
Even though they are best friends, Brooke decided not to say anything about it, because the truth was girls like Brooke Davis just did not associate with guys like Marvin McFadden. And Brooke was starting to regret ever even asking Mouth to do it. But considering she couldn't get a hold of him anyways, it wouldn't be a big deal.
"Well, you don't have to watch you know, you could always join..Give Nathan a taste of his own medicine for once." Brooke smiled at her idea, in her mind it really was a good one. Brooke didn't say anything else about the Mouth slip up, Peyton would probably just think it as something stupid Brooke said. It wouldn't be the first time.
Peyton looked somewhat disgusted with Brooke's idea. "It could work. Make Nate jealous. Look Peyt, why do you even stay with him then? You deserve better then the way he treats you." Brooke had said that to Peyton before, but she pretty much gave up on it because as terrible of a relationship as Nate and Peyton had, that's just how they were and they would fight and make up..fight and make-up. It's just what they did.

"Cause the sex is good?" She responded somewhat sarcastically. "I dunno, sometimes the relationship part is good too. And there is no one else. Maybe I stay with him for the same reason you get with every guy in the school. Its easy."
To be perfectly honest Peyton never was really sure why she stayed with him. They had been dating for nearly a year now, and it seemed that although they were just now becoming sophomores that they would be the school King and Queen couple. Nothing was more cliche than the star player and a cheerleader, so why did she stick with it? Because like she had told Brooke, it was easier to stay with him than to be alone.
She shook her head, "Who cares anyway, its just high school crap anyway, right? Besides, if I join in I won't be able to to DJ." by saying this giving Brooke as an official of an acceptance as she would get, resigning herself to going through another night of drama, but at least she could backset it with some decent tunes this time.

"So you'll do it?? Yes!" Brooke said happily, clapping her hands together as she did.
"Technically it should have been tonight..since tonight is the last night before the beginning of the new year but there were some minor problems which have been taken care of. But everything is now set and ready, all we have to do is get through tomorrow, which we always do with flying colors."
Brooke glanced at the clock and noticed what time it was. She looked back at Peyton and rolled her eyes saying. "I better go in case the parentals actually decide to be parents tonight."

"Because tonight would be any different?" the two laughed sardonically together, knowing that the chance was slim to none of Brooke's parents even being at her house when she got home, but she had to hope anyway.
"See you tomorrow, B. Davis. Meet you in the courtyard?" They had both gotten their licenses over the summer, and were determined to bring their cars to school the next morning.
Brooke nodded and bounded out the same way that she had bounded int, leaving Peyton to her room, and her drawings and what Nathan called her depressing crap.
She changed into shorts and a tank top, turning her music up louder and crawled into bed. she looked at the sketch she had been working on when Brooke interrupted and saw darkness, surrounding a tiny prick of light directly in the middle. To anyone else it looked dark, but to Peyton there was the light at the end of the tunnel to focus on, she just had to figure out what that light represented.
As far as she could tell it sure wasn't high school, Nathan, or an absentee father. She tossed the paper on her desk and turned out the light, unprepared to face the next morning, knowing it had to be done.

Peyton's alarm had been going off for a while, but she was trying to block it out as best she could until the phone joined the noise. she slapped off the noise of the alarm as the answering machine in her room picked up. She listened to Brooke's peppy voice on the other end, rolling her eyes when Brooke basically predicted exactly what Peyt had been doing.
She hit the off button on the machine when Brooke hung up and stood to get her shower quickly and get dressed. As much as she dreaded going today she figured she might as well look half way decent.
She stepped out and dried off then pulled her jeans on with the top and jacket that Brooke had thrown at her the day before. "This is as good as its gonna get." she mumbled to herself.

Nathan woke up that morining from his alarm clock. He showered and put on a blue T-shirt and jeans. He decided to call Peyton since they hadn't really seen eachother and since it was the first day of school after all. He waited for an answer...

Just as Peyt was about to walk out the door she heard her phone ringing and looked at the id. Nathan's name and face popped up and she rolled her eyes slightly, but figured she would talk to him, he was her boyfriend after all.
"Well, if it isn't the infamous Nathan Scott. Ready for classes?" She asked into the phone on her way out the door.

"Ready as I'll ever be. My dad's threatning me. If I don't do good I'll have h*ll to pay." He laughed thinking about his father's words. "So Peyt. I was thinking after school you can come over."
