Rachel was about ready to lung back at Haley, but manged with every bit of will power to stop herself from doing so. She'd said it once, twice, three times and there was no way in hell she was going to say it again...Or maybe she would. Snapping her head in Luke's direction, Rae let her anger run free, "You! Your the reason we were fighting!" Throwing her arms up again she spun around to look at everyone in the cafeteria, then stopped to look Luke in the eye, "Apparently im in love with Craig Scott but im dating you! Oh no, don't ask me about it, because I didn't know about my love for Craig until my ex best friend told me about it!"
Hearing Haley's remark, Rachel stepped forward and immediatly slapped her, "You know what Haley, you can have em. You can have em all. Is that what you want to hear? You want to hear that I'm giving up your best friend so you don't have to hear about me dating him? Well you got it." With that she walked back to her bag and looked around at everyone staring at them.

Haley gasped as Rachel's hand hit her clean across the face, her cheek felt like it was burning. She had been a total bitch and now she'd lost her best friend. She watched as Rachel walked away then her eyes scanned the room at the mass of people watching them, "what you staring at!!" she shouted

Luke quickly looked at Rachel, was he going deaf? or did she really say those words infront of the whole cafe. they were done? no it couldnt be! Luke had worked too hard to get Rachel to be his. looking over at Haley as he saw Rachel slap her face, Luke's heart shattered. was it really his fault for their friendship sinking?

For the first time in twenty minutes, tears broke through Rachel's eyes as she pushed through the crowd of people around them. Once out of the mass, she half walked, half ran towards the exit of the school and out to the parking lot. She'd just broke up with Luke without him even knowing, in front of what seemed like half the school population, and just lost her best friend at the same time, there was no way this day could get any worse.

Luke stood there in disbelief of what was just said. looking to Haley, he dint want to leave her there but he had to go after Rachel? he well...i guess you can cahnge that to past tense, he was her boyfriend. Luke looked into Haley's eyes as if to say 'i want to talk to you about all of this later!' with a serious look in his eyes he then ran after Rachel who wasalready outside and almost at her car. "Rachel!" he yelled to her as he ran down the steps towards her

The last thing Rachel wanted to do was talk to anyone. She didn't need anyones opinions. She'd had enough of them, what with everyone having their opinions on her love life to how she treated people and took advantage of them, she felt more like breaking something then hearing what someone had to say.
As her bag flopped around at her side, as she made her way to her car at the far end of the parking lot, she heard Luke's voice calling for her. Ignoring it, she sped up to a jog, until she reached the drivers side door of her car. Reaching into her bag, her hands shaking from the anger boiling up inside of her, she pulled out her keys and desperatly tried to get them into the lock.

Luke looked at her, what was she doing? she couldnt be tihnking of driving after that could she? with anger inside of her it was almost like driving drunk. picking up the pace, Luke ran towards her but by the time he had gotten to her, she had made it into her car and had already backed out of the parking psace she was in. Luke ran to the front of the car and stopped there in the middle of the parking lot with his hands on the hood of her car as he lookedat her in the car

Having managed to unlock the door of her car in only a matter of seconds, she tossed her bag to the passenger seat and hopped in closing the door. She hated doing this to Luke and hated it even more to be running away from him, but she couldn't talk to him. Not now. Backing out of her spot, she headed out of the parking lot, only to come close to running over Luke. Slamming on the breaks as her tears seemed to freeze themselves for a moments time, she jolted forward at the stop and looked through the window. She couldn't even make eye contact with him. So turning her head to look out her window, she unlocked the doors willingly and dropped her hands from the steering wheel.

Rachel was silent for a moment, as Luke spoke to her through her open door. A tear dripped down her cheek and she whipped it away quickly, crossing her arms, "Whats there to talk about?" She said, avoiding eye contact with him, "She got what she wanted."

"theres everything to talk about" he laughed softly as he bent down and rested his hand on hers. "Rachel...whats going on?" he asked still confused about everything. "why are you and Haley fighting and why did you break up with me?"

Shaking her head slowely, as he asked what was going on, Rachel didn't know how to explain it all. All she'd done was tell Haley that her and Luke were dating because she figured she needed to hear it, after all Haley was her best friend, then it had all gone from there. Accusations, and all. Wiping her eyes again with the back of her free hand, Rachel began to explain, "I didn't break up with you....Well I did...But she was pushing me! Do you think I actually wanted to? Because that was the last thing I wanted to do. I asked her to meet me for lunch in the cafeteria so I could tell her how you and I were dating...." Turning her head, she looked at Luke, "Shes my best friend and your best friend and I thought she needed to know. But...She started accusing me of hooking up with every guy in Crystal Falls and...." Another tear slipped down her cheek and she choked back tears and removed her hand from Lukes, placing both of them over her face instead.

Luke listened to the novel she had opened to him. he felt the cool air rush to his hand as hers left his only to be placed over her face along side the other. Luke reached his hands to her wrists and pulled them down slowly to her lap. "Rach, im still here...and Haley is to she's just been through alot. everyone has but trust me when i say as much as Haley's my best friend, i dont care about what she says about us alright? you are my girl...your more than that, your the girl of my dreams come true" he smiled to her "Rach, im here...beside you for a reason, im not leaving you"

Rachel didn't have much time to hide her eyes before Luke grabbed her wrists gently and pulled them away from her face. Forced to make eye contact with him now, she held back her tears and looked at him, as he spoke to her. Continuously nodding at his every statement, she noticed the smile still on his face. She should have been able to smile along with him, but she found it impossible until this was at least somewhat fixed, "C...Can I take it back then?" She said with a slight yet choked laugh as she reached her hand back up to her eyes and wiped the tears away with the tips of her fingers.
