*Lucas's POV*


"Lucas, breakfast!"

I groan and roll over and give my alarm clock a death stare. I realize that I've overslept and hop out of bed quickly, get dressed and hurry out to the kitchen just in time.

"I was about to send search and rescue in there, I've hollered at you four times now."

I laugh, yawning and take the plate that my mom is holding out to me.

"I was up pretty late last night doing homework," I shrug lying, I was up thinking about how I'd seen Peyton and where she was going, but my mom doesn't need to know that.

"You should do your homework after school instead of going to the rivercourt, you need to keep your grades up."

I shake my head and take a bite, "My grades are fine mom."

"If you say so, and don't talk with food in your mouth," she rolls her eyes laughing at me.

After I finish my breakfast, I gather up my books for school, bid farewell to my mom, and start on my walk to school.


*Peyton's POV*

I wake up feeling warmer than usual and quickly realize that it's because Brooke has wrapped herself around my body in her sleep. She likes to cuddle when she's drunk.

After disentangling myself from her limbs I check the time and see that it's only 6:30 A.M. so I go ahead and shower before waking Brooke up.

"Brooke," I sit on the bed by her legs as she groans, "C'mon, wake up. It's almost 7:30."

"I'm not going to school," she grumbles pulling a pillow over her face.

I laugh and take it from her, "Yes you are, you knew that it was a school night when you decided to go to that party last night. Now get up, I made pancakes."

"Fine, but only because there's pancakes," she sighs and rolls out of bed.

After we eat breakfast, I drive Brooke to her house so she can change for school. She comes out ready to go and we're on our way.
