"Hey." Claudia smiled catching up with Peyton. "Lucas told me about Brooke. I was afraid something like this might happen." Claudia said sympathetically as she fixed her bag strap.
"Ten points for Claudia." Peyton muttered.
"How's she doing?" Claudia asked.
"Who knows. I don't think she'll ever speak to me again. I know I wouldn't." Peyton replied upset. Nathan approached them in his car. The girls turn around to see Nathan driving a new mustang. Nathan got out. "What'd you do? Knock over you dad's dealership?" Peyton asked laughing and Nathan gave her a sarcastic smile."Okay, none of my business. I'll see ya." She said smiling at Claudia before she walked away.
"Okay. What is this?" Claudia asked tucking her hair behind her ears.
"Dad gave it to me. His way of showing me who's in control." Nathan explained and Claudia's smile went away.
"Ew, give it back." Claudia replied with disgust.
"No. If I'm going to live like this I'm going to take everything I can get." Nathan stated and Claudia just shrugged her shoulders. "So what'd you do last night?" Nathan asked and Claudia groaned.
"I was up all night bidding on ebay for those Sheryl Crow tickets." Claudia answered.
"Oh yeah. The show's tomorrow." Nathan said and Claudia nodded her head.
"Yeah." Claudia said.
"Any luck?" Nathan asked and Claudia shook her head.
"No, but there's three more auctions tonight. So hopefully I get the tickets." Claudia replied optimistically.
"I got DSL. Do you want to come over?" Nathan asked changing the subject and Claudia nodded her head.
"Oh yeah!" She exclaimed laughing.

The Cheerleaders were all practicing their routine, while the boys played basketball. Peyton and Brooke looked at each other weirdly, will Claudia looked like she was suffering a slow and painful death. Nathan ran up to her.
"For a cheerleader you sure don't have a lot of cheer." Nathan said walking closer to a grumpy Claudia.
"You try being a cheerleader. It is torture." Claudia exclaimed resting her arms on Nathan's shoulders.
"I am sure it's not that bad." Nathan whispered and then the couple began to kiss.
"Uh huh. Not anymore." Claudia laughed before Nathan ran off.

In Karen's Cafe, Karen, Haley, Lucas and Claudia were all having dinner.
"I can't remember the last time the four of us did this." Karen said before she tucked into her meal.
"Yes it's just like old times. Minus one spleen." Claudia joked but Lucas didn't look so amused. "Oh come on it's a joke." Claudia exclaimed and Haley joined in.
"Tragedy plus time. Alright, too soon." Haley replied laughing herself. Lucas tried to reach for something but he groaned in pain.
"Do you ever do it at physical therapy?" Karen asked and Lucas looked at her.
"Physical Therapy's a waste of time." Lucas moaned and Karen changed the subject.
"Alright, let's try something else. How was school?" Karen asked trying to make everything normal again.
