Nathan: Go to 1423 River Street and find your next envelope, on the way tell three things you like about eachother.
Haley: I don’t know.
Nathan: Look, I’ll go first. You’re the most patient person I know, you don’t go postal on me during tutoring, you don’t treat me like some sort of a moron, I really appreciate that.

Haley: And number three?
Nathan: You’re loyalty to Lucas, I mean, I’m not always wild about how it plays out, but it’s cool.
Haley: Okay, three things I like about you.
Nathan: My good looks.
Haley: I like the way you let me in, past all the bluster you give everybody else, and I like your smile when you solve a problem and you’re not horrible to look at.
One Tree Hill 1x08 - The Search for Something More
(via fyeahjameslafferty)
All together now: Awwwwwwwww!
I can’t even explain how much I love this scene:
- I love that Nathan is so cocky, that he doesn’t even bother looking at the hoop for a free throw
- I love that “One Tree Hill” taught me what a “free throw” even is
- I love that Nathan is wearing Lucas Scott’s jersey because Lucas can’t play due to his heart condition
- I love that he gets the free throw in right after Damien taunts him “you got nothing Scott”
- I love that Hayley throws herself into Nathan’s arms after the Ravens win and Mark Schwan mixes in some nice slow-motion editing. Very emotionally engaging (for all my media students out there)
- I love that Hayley goes from being “Tutor Girl” to blonde, a cheerleader and married to one of the team captains and best friends with the other. Nice work Hayley James Scott!
- I love that this scene comes from an episode which opens with Nathan completely dominating basketball and saying to his wife in the middle of the game “are you sure you don’t wanna sleep with me till the ceremony? I know I look pretty sexy right now”. Be still my beating heart
- I love that “Unsatisfied” by Nine Black Alps is playing in the background
- I love that Nathan wins. a) The basketball game. b) The mental battle with Damien who keeps trying to hit on Hayley.
One Tree Hill 3x20 - Everyday is a Sunday Evening
Lucas: I saw your light on. Which isn’t that suprising, I mean, I know how hard you work. You know, you haven’t been yourself lately. Peyton. I mean, not the Peyton I remember.
Peyton: Well, I haven’t been that Peyton for three years.
Lucas: What’s going on?
Peyton: Okay. I went by my old house. There’s a teenage girl living there now, and she showed me my closet door. And you know what that said? ‘Lucas and Peyton: True Love Always’. ’Always’, Lucas, that’s what we were supposed to have. Until you showed up in LA three years ago and ambushed me.
Lucas: If by ‘ambushed’ you mean proposed to you?
Peyton: Oh yeah, out of the blue. A proposal that was driven by some insecurity that I have never been able to understand.
Lucas: Insecurity? Right. Let me tell you how you get ‘Always’, Peyton: When a man asks you to marry him, you say ‘yes’. You don’t say ‘no’ and call him insecure.
Peyton: I never said no! I said that I loved you, and that I did want to marry you someday. And, oh God, Luke, I wanted you so bad—but you gave up on us.
Lucas: I—I gave up on us!?
Peyton: Yes!
Lucas: By proposing, I gave up on us?
Peyton: No. By not waiting, you gave up on us and you know that’s the truth.
Lucas: That’s great, Peyton! You wanna talk truth? Let’s tell the truth!
Peyton: Okay.
Lucas: You gave up on me, that’s why you didn’t say yes! You didn’t think I could do it, you didn’t think I could get my novel published. Maybe you just didn’t care, because it wasn’t about you, or what you wanted.
Peyton: Well, if that’s the truth, if I never cared, then how come everytime I see this stupid book, I buy it?! Every stupid damn time, Luke! You said I was great! You said I could be great! You said we were destined to be together, you said it to the world, you said it to me, and I wish you never had because you did not mean any of it!
5x06 - Don’t Dream It’s Over
I love this scene. It was one of the most heart-wrenching Leyton scenes ever. More importantly, the thematic elements can resonate with a lot of 20-something year olds, here’s how I see it: Marriage should be a declaration of your love and commitment to each other. Simple in theory, but a little more difficult in execution.
The thing that’s wrong with a lot of my generation, is that we over-use words like “always” and “forever”, so much so, that the meaning behind those words have become completely redundant.
If you loved someone, REALLY loved someone, then you would wait till they were able to commit to you. This may be psychologically, physically, financially and even intellectually. But the point of it all is you’re supposed to wait.
And that itself is the problem. So many of us are not willing to wait. We use declarations of love and proposals of marriage as ultimatums. Any sign that the other person isn’t in the same headspace we automatically see as rejection and we render our feelings, which seemed so significant to us a mere moment ago, as unrequited love.
Why do we measure the importance of what we think and feel on weather or not they are mutually exclusive with someone else’s views and feelings? Do we no longer have the patience to wait for others? Do we no longer value conviction and believe in our own decisions?
Just because someone isn’t ready to spend “forever” with you right now, it doesn’t mean that they won’t be ready in the future. Your unwillingness to wait for them is indicative that YOU aren’t ready to spend “forever” with them.
People who put time limits and expiration dates on their feelings and on love…don’t get the privilege of using the word forever. Because, they don’t believe in it in the first place.
“We’ve been dating off and on for the past four years. We had so many years of history prior to him coming to work on the show, and I think someone taking a job and moving their life across the country to show you how much they care is pretty much the most romantic gesture that a person could make.” - Sophia Bush
Life imitating art. Brulians storyline is pretty much a mirror of Auphia! LOVE IT!
I Love that Austin and Sophia make an effort to match their outfits.
Tres cute!
