Hey guys. I've started another fanfic since I've recently become very obsessed with One Tree Hill. This is my first One Tree Hill fanfic so I hope you guys like it. I have a few chapters already written so I'll try to update once a week. Thanks to my beta Amanda for watching OTH with me and editin this story for me. All characters belong to Mark Schwan.


Prologue

The music began and the bride began to walk down the aisle. The groom waited at the end for her with a smile plastered on his face. It wasn't the smile that he was used to wearing; it wasn't his real smile. The woman in white shared the same plastic smile as she walked. They had said that they loved each other hundreds of times but she knew he didn't mean it. His heart would always belong to another. That other was sitting in the third row, four people in. She was biting her lip as she watched her true love watching the bride. Surrounding the other one was the groom's family, all of whom were watching with less than enthused faces. They all assumed it would be her. For years, the groom had been in love with the other one. In fact, he still was. Everyone knew it. Everyone could tell. Well, everyone, that is, except for him. He watched the bride walking down the aisle and didn't look away. He was tricking himself into thinking that she was the one. But even he couldn't lie to himself completely.

His eyes wanted to search; to flicker away from the girl in the white, to hunt for the other one. The one that he knew was there. The one he'd been trying to avoid since she arrived back in town even though it was impossible. The one who kept coming back.

The one that loved him.

The one whose heart was breaking as she watched the girl in white walk towards the groom.

The girl in the third row, four people in.

His girl.

His Peyton.


I know this sounds very season five-y but I promise it isn't. This is the only thing that is season five-y. Read and Review :)
