Chapter 1

Love. A word so simple and complicated at the same time, a word that Haley James promised herself she would never utter to another man. You see when your boyfriend of two years cheats on you with one of your best friends you tend to get a new perspective on the word love.

"Okay H.James this is ridiculous, the stupid jackass Keller doesn't deserve your tears." Brooke sighed, she was glad that her best friend finally broke up with Keller, she hated him but she also hated the fact that Haley looked so lost and broken right now.

Haley sighed she had tears rolling down her cheeks, she was still in utter shock, she had no idea that when she decided to surprise her boyfriend Chris Keller with a romantic dinner she would be the one getting the surprise.

"Brooke I loved him, I cared about him…" Haley's voice cracked in the middle of her sentence. Brooke hearing her words full of emotion and pain, vowed to give Keller a little ass beating tonight.

"I just... I can't believe he cheated on me, and with Theresa of all people! I thought she was my friend, turns out she is just a backstabbing whore." Haley had such disgust in her voice, if there was one thing that was absolutely unacceptable in her book it was cheating. Haley had to see her mom Lydia James- Now Lydia Bregaurd- go through that pain three years ago when she found out that her husband Jimmy James cheated on her, needless to say Haley doesn't exactly talk to her father anymore.

"Hales, Chris means nothing, he is an immature, loser who talks about himself in the third person, now honestly tell me that you still want to call that your boyfriend." Brooke smiled at the end when she saw Haley crack a little smile for the first time tonight mission accomplished.

"Tigger I love you for being here when I need you the most, but I just want to be alone right now." Haley replied as a couple of tears made the way down her face.

"Okay tutor girl, but call me if you need anything, I am serious I don't care if its four in the morning and you feel like pigging out on rocky road and watching the notebook, call me." Brooke said sternly.

Haley smiled, she was lucky to have someone like Brooke in her life. "Thanks B.Davis." Haley really was grateful for Brooke, without her Haley would probably still be a complete wreck like when she first found out about Chris and Teresa.

Brooke got up from Haley's bed and moved toward the door she put her hand on the doorknob but before she walked out she turned around and faced Haley. "Ya know Hales I know you and I know that you say your fine when your really not but I just want you to remember, Chris Keller, he is not even in your league, you are so much better than him and you deserve the best, and sweetie Chris Keller, he wasn't even close, just...don't let this eat you up inside okay. If you're angry, be angry hell I'll even go with you to steal his precious guitar if you want." Brooke said in all seriousness.

"I know Tigger and thanks, but it just hurts ya know?" Haley said with pain evident in her voice.

"Yeah Hales I know." Brooke sent her a sad smile before exiting the room of her best friend.

Haley was finally alone and the reality of the situation was sinking in, no matter what anybody else said about Chris truth was she loved him and it hurt her that he would do something like this to her. As Haley turned to put her head on her pillow thoughts were running like crazy through her head, but the one thing that Haley kept thinking was that maybe she just wasn't meant to find love, or worse maybe love didn't truly exist.

After Brooke left Haley's room she put her coat on and walked out of the house and was about to get into her car with intentions of going over to Keller's to give him a kick in the ass. As she was walking to her car she saw a familiar black mustang pull up to Haley's house and watched two girls get out, one with curly blond hair and the other with straight red hair.

"Brooke!" The blond one yelled out.

"P.Sawyer and Rach-ho, what the hell took you guys so long?" Brooke questioned her and Haley's other two best friends Peyton Sawyer and Rachel Gatinna. They all grew up together and have been inseparable since they were three.

"Sorry, we just got the message you sent us." Rachel replied. "What the hell happened?" Rachel questioned.

"Ugh long story short Chris Keller the ass cheated on Haley with Teresa the whore and she caught them." Brooke replied, to tired to get into details.

"Oh my god, what the hell is wrong with Keller?" Peyton asked astounded that anyone would hurt Haley like that.

"Many things goldilocks, but the main question what are we gonna do about it?" Rachel asked with a hint of mischievousness in her voice.

"Already on top of it Rach, I am going over to Keller's to give him a piece of my mind and you guys go to Teresa's and let her know what we really think of her." Brooke replied moving toward her car.

"What about Haley?" Peyton questioned concerned for her friend.

"She said that she wanted to be alone, she'll call us if she needs anything." Brooke replied already getting into her car not wanting to waste anymore time.

"We're gonna come back after we go to Teresa's to check up on Hales." Rachel said

"Okay I'll be back too, now girls make me proud and kick that slut's ass." Brooke said in all seriousness

Peyton and Rachel looked at each other and then back at Brooke. "You got it." They said at the same time, both more than willing to kick Teresa's ass for hurting their best friend.
