"You are definitely right, my dear" she smiled to Lucas "Clo's over Bro's is a great company now. I used to live in New York where the main offices are but I just moved back to Tree Hill and opened a shop there" she smiled "And I love it!"
She looked at Layla when she spoke "Ok, now don't worry and calm down" she said soothingly "I am not Here to steal Lucas from you, ok? Neither is Peyton, I am sure. You said you spoke to a different me, one that was still dating him when he got Here and you said you two are on good-speaking terms, right? Well, just consider I come from four years after that. I am not in love with Lucas anymore. He's one of my best friends, I love him very much and, although I'd never let anything smash our friendship, my love for him is only, ONLY, as a friend. Nothing more. I promise. And I'm sorry if my first reaction when I saw him put you off and made you feel bad. I really am. But I'm a bit in an emotional state today because of Angie and everything and Lucas really was great in helping me out with her" she said "I would really like to get to know you, and I'd never do something to make you feel unconfortable around me. Not intentionally" she waited to see if she had made her point clear. The other girl seemed nice and she didn't want to hurt her or anything of the sort "And don't worry about the rambling. I tend to do that too when I'm nervous" she said with a friendly smile.
