Chapter One

Peyton picked up the last box from the moving truck. She carried it to her room and shut the door. She was drenched in sweat from spending the whole day carrying boxes into her new home. Peyton was not happy about moving to Tree Hill, North Carolina. She never wanted to leave her home in Phoenix, Arizona, but her mom, Anna, didn't care. She promised Peyton that she would make new friends. Peyton highly doubted that. In small towns like this, new people weren't welcomed. At least that's what she heard.

As for her twin brother Nathan, he was excited. He was sick of his life in Phoenix and was ready for something different. Everything was always so much easier for Nathan. Everyone loved him, so he had no problem making friends. The teachers liked him since he had a straight A average. All the girls loved him because he is an amazing basketball player and has good looks.

Peyton always had trouble with friends, grades, and boyfriends. She was finally getting some friends, when her mom decided it was time for them to move. Peyton was not ready for high school tomorrow. She wanted to stay in bed all day and sleep. The move had taken a lot out of her. She knew she was going to have to go anyways, so she crawled under her covers and fell asleep.

"Wake up, Peyton!", her mother called. "You don't want to be late for your first day at a brand new school."

Peyton walked into her bathroom and jumped into the shower. She got dressed into blue jeans and a Coldplay t-shirt. She put on her favorite pair of black converse and walked downstairs. Nathan was already down there eating a banana. He wore black jeans and a Polo shirt with black Jordans.

"Hurry up, Sis'. We're gonna be late." He grabbed her backpack and handed it to her.

"Nathan, we do share a car. If we drive it to school, we will not be late." Peyton rolled her eyes at her brother.

"Well I wanna get there early and talk to the coach. I wanna see if he will let me try out late since I missed try-outs last week." Nathan was always excited to get onto the basketball team. Once the coach saw how good he was, he wouldn't be able to say no.

"Ok. Fine. Let's go." Peyton took a bit e out of some toast and walked out the door. Nathan drove them to school and they got there in about 3 minutes.

Nathan got out and hugged Peyton goodbye. "Have a good day, Peyton. I wanna hear all about it when we get home."

Peyton smiled. "Thanks, Nathan. I love you."

"I love you too." Nathan walked towards the gym,

"Good luck!", Peyton called after him. as soon as he stepped into the gym she began to walk in the other direction to her first class. Here we go, she thought.

Nathan knocked on Coach Durham's door. "Come in." Nathan pulled open the door and walked inside the office. "What can I help you with, Son?"

"Good morning, Coach Durham. My name is Nathan Sawyer. I'm new here at Tree Hill High. Today is my first day and I was really hoping I could try out for the basketball team. I know I missed try-outs, but if you would just give me a chance, I'm promise you wont regret it."

"I'll tell you what, Nathan. You can come to practice today with the team. If you do well, I'll consider letting you on the team late. However, if you don't do well, there will be no more second chances. You will just have to try out again next season."

"Thank you, Coach. You wont regret this!" Nathan smiled so wide.

"Practice starts at 4:00 sharp, Mr. Sawyer."

"I'll be there!" Nathan walked out of the office feeling confident. He knew he had this in the bag.

As Peyton was walking to her first class, she noticed everyone staring at her. If there's one thing Peyton hates, it's when people stare at her. She starred at the ground so she would avoid every one's gazes. She crashed into someone who was in front of her and made them drop their books. "I'm so sorry" Peyton bent down and began to pick them up.

"Don't worry about it", the person said. After all the books were picked up, Peyton looked up and saw the person for the first time. It was a very pretty girl with straight brown hair, wearing a cheer leading outfit. "I'm Brooke Davis." She extended her hand to Peyton.

"I'm Peyton." Peyton shook her hand and looked down again. "Sorry I bumped into you."

"No. It's fine. Where were you heading to in such a hurry?"

"First period. I have ."

"Me too! Omg! We should sit together!" Brooke started jumping up and down excitedly.

Peyton was surprised someone actually wanted to sit with her. Especially this girl. Considering she was a cheer leader, she must be very popular. "Yea. Sure. But don't you have someone you'd rather sit with? I mean I don't have a problem with you sitting with me, it just seems like you would have a lot of people who would love to sit next to you."

"Yea, but I'm sick of everyone one here. It's about time we got a new student!" Brooke looked Peyton over. "You should try out for cheer leading today. Try-outs are at 4:00 sharp. I'm the captain, so I'll go easy on you."

"I don't know... I'm not really good at cheer leading." Peyton was always too embarrassed to try out for cheer leading. It's not like she didn't have the body for it, because she did, but she just never thought she could handle all of the attention.

"Please. It's just a try-out." Brooke really wanted her to come.

"Ok. I'll be there." Peyton couldn't believe she actually agreed to try out for cheer leading. Just then, the bell rang. Everyone hurried to their classes, including Peyton and Brooke. Peyton couldn't wait to see how the rest of the day was going to go.
