A four year old Brooke Davis walked into the playground near her house one sunny morning and decided to go and play in the sand box. Where she saw another little girl playing and figured they could play together.
"Hi my name is Brooke Davis can I play with you?" Brooke asked as she sat down in the sand.
"Yeah sure my Name is Haley James do you wanna be friends?" Haley asked trying not to seem too excited.
"No, I wanna be best Friends now lest build a sand castle!" Brooke yelled as she hugged Haley and started to fill a bucket with sand.
Half an hour later after much talking and getting to know each other Haley and Brooke were done building there sand castle.
A large boy walked up to Broke and Haley and yelled "Girls drool and boys rule" He then kicked down there Sand castle and started making fun of them when they cried.
Until another boy came up and yelled at that boy and then beat him up until the bully ran away to his mom.
"Thank you so much for beating him up" Brooke said as Haley just stood there staring at the boy who saved them.
"Uh No problem Im Nathan!" He said while staring at Haley something about just made his stomach feel funny like there were butterflies inside it.
"Im Brooke and this is Haley do you wanna be Best friends with us?" Brooke said as she watched Nathan and Haley watch each other each one with a look of pure lust in their eyes.
"Yeah Ok you girls seem cool why don't we go play on the jungle gym?" Nathan said as he finally broke his gaze away from Haley and started running to the Jungle gym.
They played together on that Jungle gym for a few hours until there Nannies came to get them. You see all of their parents were rich, successful and way to busy to take care of them.
Nathans dad was a high profile lawyer and was almost never in the country, and his mom did charity work during the day and was with him at night or at least until he fell asleep and then to the bars she would go.
Brookes Dad owned a multinational corporation so he traveled as well , where as her mother was friend with Deb so she did the charity stuff and then the drinking after Brooke was asleep.
Haleys Dad was the CEO of the bank's global department meaning he was also usually out of the country, whereas her mother did charity work and then the drinking after Haley was asleep.
You see their mother were all just waiting for the kids to turn sixteen so they could leave them home alone and go off to other countrys with their husbands.
And that's the story of how Nathan, Haley and Brooke became friends they soon realised they were also neighbours. You see Nathan and Haley lived next door to each other (or as close as mansions can be to each other) and Brooke lived in the mansion across the street from Nathan. They grew up together, went to elementary school together (private elementary school of course) but there were no private high schools so they had to go to public school where they quickly became the popular people. They were not only popular because they were rich but also because Nathan was the only freshman to ever make the Senior varsity basketball team and be in the starting line up. And Haley and Brooke where the first ever soft more cheerleaders to be co-captains of the cheerleading squad. Life was good for this trio they were popular and had almost everything except Brooke knew that Nathan and Haley were missing something. And what you may ask is that? Each other. I know what you're thinking there friends they already have each other so why are you saying this. Well its because ever since I can remember they have "Secretly" Liked each other. In fact they have basically been each others first everything. But I only started to realise they seriously wanted to be more around Haleys sixteenth birthday. When Nathan bought her a diamond encrusted tiffany heart shaped locket. And in the card he signed it "now youve got my heart" but only I Brooke Davis realised the deeper meaning. Even though my friends are both like ten times smarter than me and the only one who can see how they truly feel and what Nathan really meant in those five simple words. It's been almost six months since then and I still haven't come up with a plan to try and get Nathan and Haley together (or as I like to call them Naley). That was until I enlisted the help of Nathan's Best friend and Cousin Lucas Scott. You see Lucas and Nathans fathers are brothers but they don't get along but Lucas and Nathan are also team mates but Lucas isn't as popular as Nathan. Mainly because he's not rich and hangs out with the losers as we call them but he calls them friends.
Now let's get back to our story-
It had been a normal Wednesday for the trio Nathan drove the girls to school they had classes and went to lunch.
"So Luc any ideas on project Naley?" I whispered to Lucas as I sat down next to him while Nathan and Haley were in line getting food. And as always they were hanging all over each other like normal couples do.
"Well actually I was talking to Peyton and she had some ideas." Lucas said.
"Well than I think the four of us should sit down and share ideas this weekend at my house because summers only a few weeks away and I want them to be together by the summer or at least by senior year." Brooke said as she looked around to make sure Nathan and Haley were still in line.
"The four of us?" Lucas asked with a puzzled look.
"You, Me, Jake and Peyton! You know my Boyfriend and your girlfriend." Brooke said as Haley and Nathan walked out of the Cafeteria arms linked together.
"Bye Luc! I gotta go but I'll call you" Brooke said as she got up and walked over to her best friends so they could eat lunch together.
"Hey Brookie want a cookie?" Haley asked as Brooke approached there table.
"Yeah Hales but didn't you get me food like I asked you to?" Brooke said
"Yeah but Nathan ate it all so you can have one of my cookies!" Haley said while looking at Nathan while he talked to one of his basketball buddies at another table.
"Hales you lying so give me food already cause you know how cranky I get when I'm hungry." Brooke said as she sat down next to Haley
"Ok Brookie here's your food!" Haley said placing the tray from the bench onto the table.
"Aw Hales you caved before I got here?" Nathan said as he sat down next to Haley and hugged affectionately.
"Sorry Nate she just couldn't hold out I was just too damn annoying!" Brooke said smiling at the sight of her to best friend's cluelessness.
"So what are the plans for this weekend?" Nathan said as he stole some fries from Haley's plate.
"Well I think there is a party at Tim's on Friday night but other than that I don't know! Oh wait Nathan that movie we wanted to see is coming out this weekend what's it called?" Haley said while staring at Nathan.
"The One with all the comedians that Brooke refuses to go see with us. It's called Tropic Thunder and we should go see it on Saturday night so we can go to the party on Friday." Nathan said
"Yeah that's it. So we will go on Saturday night but what are you going to do Brookie?" Haley said waiting for Brookes answer.
"Oh I think me and Jakie which reminds me where is my Boyfriend? Are just going to hang out at his house.
"Oh ok cool so I'll drive you guys to the party after the game on Friday and then I'll pick you up around seven on Saturday for the movie. okay?" Nathan said as he got up to go put his and Haley's trays away.
"Yeah that's great Nate." Haley said when he got back.
"Oh I just remembered Jake is driving me to the game so you two will have to go on without me." Brooke said still looking around for Jake.
"Oh Brooke how will we go on without you there who will mess up the driving directions and get to drunk to walk and make us leave early cause she can't stand up any more?" Nathan and Haley said in a sad tone.
"Ha ha funny! But if you to jokers will excuse me I am going to go find my boyfriend!" Brooke said as she got up and walked away.
Nathan and Haley watched Brooke still laughing at her.
"Hey Nate, Haley what's up?" Lucas said as he sat down at their table with Peyton right beside him.
"Oh Nothing just the usual pissing off Brooke." Nathan said as Haley and Peyton began to talk about their classes.
"Yeah dude! So what are the plans for the weekend?" Lucas said looking over at Nathan who was staring at a smiling Haley.
"Oh um just a party on Friday and the movies with Hales on Saturday." Nathan stated as Haley and Peyton started to pay attention to them.
"Um would you guys excuse me for a sec I gotta take this." Lucas sad as he got up from the table. The rest of the table's occupants just continued talking without him.
"Hello" Lucas said to the person on the phone.
"Lucas meeting at my house Saturday night around 6:30 and bring Peyton" The voice on the line said then hung up.
"So Lucas who was it?" Haley asked as he made his way back over to the table.
"Oh it was just my mom wanting me to swing by the cafe after school." Lucas lied and everyone except Peyton believed him.
"Well lunch is almost over why don't I walk you to class Hales?" Nathan said getting up and offering Haley his arm.
"Oh why thank you! Bye Luc, Bye Peyton" Haley said getting up and bowing before taking his arm and waving to Lucas and Peyton as they walked off.
"SO Luc you going to tell me who it really was or are you going to keep me in suspense?" Peyton said as she slid a little closer to Lucas on the bench.
"Um I think it was Brooke inviting us over for a "NALEY" meeting at her house around seven on Saturday." Lucas said
"Ok one what's NALEY and two why does Brooke want us to meet at her house?" Peyton asked in a confused tone.
"Ok well Naley is Nathan and Haley's names combined and she wants us to go over to her house so we can brainstorm ideas of how to get Naley together before the end of summer." Lucas said still a little confused of the plan himself.
"Oh ok well I do have some ideas!" Peyton said as she got up so she could start going to class.
"Ok great why don't I pick you up around four and we will go out for dinner and then after we can go to Brooke's!" Lucas said as he kissed Peyton goodbye.
"Um ok so I'll see you after class she said as she walked in the opposite direction of Lucas to her art class.
