There's A Thin Line Between Love And Friendship!

Admitting My Feelings Towards Him!!!

Walking back into the office I see Rachel sitting in my office at my desk. I rolled my eyes. Wasn't she meant to be in a meeting? I walk in and shut the glass door behind myself putting down my bag and hanging my jacket on the hanger.

"Peytwhore and wedding stuff again huh?" She comments twirling around in my chair before standing up and sitting in the chair opposite my desk.

"Hey she isn't a whore" I defend thinking it was my duty after what I have done "And I'm her maid of honour Rach, I have to go to these sort of things, it's part of the maid of honour duties"

"Oh please" She scoffed "Don't actually tell me you like doing it"

"I didn't say that" I smiled going through the papers on my desk "Anyway change of subject" I looked at her "Shouldn't you be in a meeting?"

"Cancelled until next month" She shrugged "Something about Mrs and Mr knightly catching the flu"

"Oh okay" I nod.

"So what are our plans tonight" Rachel asks me with a cheeky smile "Our usual Wednesday hang together thing"

"Oh right that's tonight" I instantly felt bad about making plans with Lucas and having to cancel on my other bestfriend. God when will the lying and hurting of my friends stop? "I have a thing Rach. I'm sorry, but how about I make it up to you tomorrow and take you for dinner and drinks"

"Okay your forgiven" She smiled not asking me what my thing I was doing tonight "Anyway I got to shoot Owen is meeting me in like 10 minutes for an late lunch" She stood up and grabbed her coat and bag from the leather couch in the corner by the door "Catch you later B"

"Yeah later Rach" I smile at her as she leaves my office shutting the door behind her.

Lucas point of view

Barney's at 7:00pm... that's like an hour away from New York which I guess is a good thing so no one would see us, well no one we know anyway and besides I wasn't going to say no and not get the opportunity to see her alone again. So here I am home before Peyton who will get home at 8:oopm. I'm getting dressed when my phone starts buzzing. Maybe its Brooke cancelling... that wouldn't surprise me. I pick up my phone and see it's Peyton. Greeeat that's all I need.

"Hey babe" I answer running my shower then walking back into the bedroom.

"Hey baby, so I'm going to be home late" She tells me "Order something in"

"Actually babe I'm going out with some of the guys after work" I lie hoping she can't hear the shower and thinks I'm at work now.

"Oh okay well have fun, but not too much" She laughs "Love you baby"

I haven't said that back to her for a while and I'm not sure why. Well actually I might have an idea why, but if I say it out loud then everything could get more complicated and I don't want that to happen, but here goes nothing riiight? I think I'm in love with someone else and that someone else is Brooke, but I'm not sure what to do about it hence why I wanted to meet her. And no I'm not going to tell her, well not yet anyway. So instead of saying I love you too back to Peyton I say...

"You too babe" I then hang the phone up and throw it on my bed when it buzzed again. Only message this time. Hopefully its Brooke and it is... She says...

Still on for Barney's at 7:00? B x

I click reply and type back before sending and going to get in the shower.

Back to me

"Nathan Scott you answer this god damn phone right now before I come and find you and don't think I won't" That is the fourth voicemail I have left him.
