Peyton opened the door to a small café, causing the bell to ring and everyone to turn and look at her. "Peyton?" a voice asked. "Is that you?" Peyton looked up to see Haley walking towards her.

"Hey." Peyton smiled. "Lucas mentioned you worked here and I decided to drop by."

"Oh, great!" Haley smiled. "Have a seat." Haley said as she walked behind the counter. "Can I get you anything?"

"No, I'm good." Peyton answered before glancing around at the café. "So…This is where you work."

"Yeah." Haley responded with a smile. "Karen's café!" She exclaimed. "It's a small chain ran by Lucas' mom. They only have two locations. His mom runs the one down in Tree Hill and I convinced her to open one up here after I got my business degree at NCU."

Peyton nodded. "Well I was hoping we could kinda talk about something." Peyton suggested.

"Sure, what is it?" Haley asked as she took a seat.

Peyton looked away and let out a sigh. "Lucas."

Haley smiled; she knew this conversation would happen at some time. "So what happened?" Haley asked, giving Peyton her full attention.

"I kissed him." Peyton whispered as she shook her head. "It was terrible."

"The kiss was terrible!?" Haley questioned, a bit of frustration flowing through her voice. She had waited a long time for something to happen between Lucas and Peyton; it wasn't supposed to end up being terrible.

"No." Peyton answered softly. "It was great. The kiss was great, but I shouldn't have kissed him! There were so many things I just wasn't thinking about. What about Jake, Brooke, what about my baby?" Peyton asked.

"Wait…" Haley said holding out a hand. "Okay…First off what baby?" Haley said her jaw dropping. "I didn't know there was going to be a baby." She paused a moment before asking another question. "Is it Jake's?"

Peyton brought up one hand over her forehead and shook her head. "Why does everyone keep asking me that?" she asked in an annoyed tone. "Yes it's Jake's!"

"Okay, okay. Sorry. Alright, so we cleared up the baby part. Now why are Jake and Brooke a problem?" Haley asked.

Peyton let out a soft chuckle. "Why are they a problem?" Peyton asked rhetorically. "Well let's see…." Peyton started. "Jake is only the love my life who just died a couple months ago! And Brooke is Lucas' freakin' girlfriend!" Peyton hollered.

"Peyton, Calm down." Haley said placing a hand on Peyton's shoulder. "Okay, I get it. It's not the right time for you and Lucas. I'm sorry."

"Haley." Peyton whispered. "It's never going to be the right time." She stood up and walked towards the door of the café. "It was all just a big mistake, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have even came." Peyton said as she left.

-----------------------------------------

Lucas was over at Haley and Nathan's house watching a basketball game with Nathan when his phone began to ring. "It's Haley." Lucas said as he glanced down at his phone and then over at Nathan who sat on the couch next to him. "Hello?" Lucas said after flipping open his phone.

"Hey Luke." Haley said into the line. "Where are you?"

"I'm at you're house." Lucas said laughed. "Where are you Miss Haley?"

"Now isn't the time for jokes. Peyton was just here at the café and she is really upset." Haley explained.

"About what?"

"About you!"

"Alright, I'll go check on her." Lucas said with a deep sigh. "Bye Hales." Lucas hung up the phone and stood up from where he sat. "I gotta go, Nate. Sorry."

"What about the game?" Nathan asked as he stood up too and pointed at the television.

"I need to go find Peyton." Lucas said as he reached forward to give his brother a quick hug. "How about I call you later and maybe you, me, Hales, and Peyton can have dinner together?" He suggested.

"Alright, sure. See you later man." Nathan said waving a quick goodbye to his brother as he left the apartment.

-----------------------------------------

Lucas got out of his car. This was the fourth place he came to while looking for Peyton. He tried calling her cell phone, but she never answered. He looked around, he hated cemeteries. He slowly walked towards the direction of where Jake's grave was. As he approached it he could see Peyton sitting on the ground in front of it. Her face was buried in her hands. Lucas sat down beside her and placed and arm on her back. "Hey." He spoke softly, trying not to startle her. "Mind telling me what's going on?"

She pulled her face out of her hands and turned to look at him. "I'm sorry." She leaned over towards him, wrapping her arms around his neck to hug him. "I'm so sorry Luke." She said again.

"You don't need to be sorry." Lucas answered as she continued to hug him.

"Yeah I do." She pulled away from him. "I shouldn't have kissed you, and I am sorry for many reasons. I'll tell Brooke about it if you want me to, that way she won't be mad at you."

Lucas shook his head. "You don't need to tell Brooke, we broke up."

"What? When?" Peyton asked shocked.

"Before I even moved in." Lucas said looking down.

"And you didn't tell me?" she questioned.

"No."

Peyton shook her head. "You are pretty unbelievable Lucas! I was feeling so bad about kissing another girl's boyfriend."

"I'm sorry Peyton, I didn't know it was a big deal, I just didn't want to talk about it."

Peyton let out a small chuckle. "You didn't want to talk to me about how your girlfriend dumped you? Yet I have been completely open and honest with you about my fiancé dieing!" Peyton stood up and looked down at Lucas. "This isn't working. I'm sorry; I think you should move out."

Lucas watched Peyton walk away, still surprised by what had just happened. He pulled out his cell phone and dialed Haley's number. "Hello?" Haley said when she answered the phone.

"I found her." Lucas stated

"Good!" Haley exclaimed. "She okay?"

"No. She is so upset, and confused." He paused for a moment. "I hate seeing her like this Hales."

"I know you do. That's what happens when you love someone."

"Haley! I'm not in the mood for your jokes okay?"

"Luke, I'm not joking. I know you love her, all you need to do is admit it to yourself."

Lucas let out a deep sigh. "She wants me to move out."

"Oh." Haley said softly. "Are you going to?"

"I don't want to, but I have to." Lucas paused before he continued. "This is so messed up. I need to go. I'm going to clear my head and everything; I'll call you in the morning. Bye Haley." Lucas hung up the phone. He laid backwards in the grass staring up at the sky.

Short chapter. I'm not too happy with it, but oh well this was the third time I have written it. Please review! Let me know if you have any ideas for the story.
