So...We've got a job. Sammy and I are heading out this evening after Matthew goes to bed.

I didn't say that. He's supposed to be with Peyton. Everyone knows it. And why do you care, anyway?

You don't know how people in this town treated him growing up. His dad didn't want him. His dad killed the man he thought of as a father.

When Jimmy Edwards brought a gun into our school, he and Nathan were safe and they ran back into the building for Peyton and Haley. He was there when I delivered your son.

Fine. He's a frickin' hero.

He is, Dean.

And if he's not, he's still the closest thing I've ever had to one.

Everyone needs one and it doesn't matter one damn bit whether I think he is one or not. You do. Good you have him.

Now I'll stop being a friggin' dick and get out of your hair.

When I said he was supposed to be the guy for me, I meant he told me that before. There were times when I believed it but I don't now and I haven't in a long time. I'm not some sad ex-girlfriend and I don't want you to think of me that way.

Can't you leave in the morning instead?

I don't know. I think we ought to get out of here. I said goodbye to Matthew and told him I'd call him every day. Probably after he gets home from school.

Look, I know you're mad at me and I don't want it to be this way. Not right now. We should talk or you should stay and we should work it out.

I'm not mad, Brooke. If I were mad the entire damn block would know it. I don't do that shit quietly.

We can talk. I really do need to go. Sam and I want to get some research done during the day. Stroke of luck and we can find the Rawhide tomorrow night be back for dinner the next day.

Right.

Okay.

Re: [locked]

I'll give you a call. Sam has his ear things on anyway.

Yeah, whenever you get a chance.
