Fighting Words: Leyton's The Ultimate OTH Couple vs. Leyton Needs to Give It Up
It's Monday, and you know what means -- we're back in the ring for another round of Fighting Words (check out last week's Fighting Words for the scoop on our latest feature)! This week, we take on Lucas and Peyton's relationship on One Tree Hill. Here's the fight:
vs.
Lucas and Peyton need to give it up already. Their storylines are so tired, and just because they started out with a connection five seasons ago doesn't mean they should still be together.
And we're off! Post your comments and let us know your take on Leyton! Remember to keep it civil and respect everyone's opinions.
Jackie: Now that we’re going back and watching season one, I can see how the writers originally set up Lucas and Peyton as the be-all, end-all couple of this show. Brooke seems to have been introduced as an afterthought – Peyton’s sassy sidekick, the good-time gal who’s all about fun, while Lucas and Peyton have this amazing CONNECTION that we’re constantly reminded of. But all that changes in later seasons when Lucas and Brooke’s chemistry takes their relationship to a new level and Peyton finds romance with Jake. We see that Lucas and Peyton can, in my opinion, be even better with other people than they were together.
Now, many seasons later, we’re STILL muddling through the will-they-or-won’t-they Lucas/Peyton angst, and frankly, I’m tired of it. If they were meant to make it work, they would have made it work already! They had their shot as a couple several times, and it never lasted. Lucas was ready to MARRY someone else this season -- it’s time for Peyton to find someone else, too. These two only seem to bring each other (and everyone around them) pain and grief. I think they need to move on.
Mia: Honestly, I haven’t seen enough of the series to have a well-informed opinion. What I can say is that after watching seasons one and five, it is obvious that Lucas and Peyton both have problems figuring out what they want. Lucas seems to always want to be the person pined after -- even if he’s in another relationship. He may not want to be with Peyton but he doesn’t want her to lose her feelings for him. Not cool. Peyton has trouble figuring out her true feelings as well. At one point in season five she says she’s not sure if it’s just the idea of Lucas that she’s in love with or Lucas himself. Truth be told, I think both of them just love playing the hurting game and it makes their relationship more exciting. If they were to actually “be” together, they probably wouldn’t know what to do with themselves.
Sarah: OK, I'm going to play devil's advocate here, since we're all too agree-y at the moment. So, in defense of Leyton: Mark Schwahn set these two sensitive teens up as soulmates from the first moment we saw them. They've both been bruised and battered by life, set apart and misunderstood by their friends and families. They may be surrounded by people who love them, but they're the only people who really GET each other. They can try to fight it all they want, but Lucas and Peyton won't ever be happy until they've given in to fate and gone into a real relationship with each other. That's the only way they'll ever be able to get past wondering what might have been. And if the relationship doesn't work out, it will be devastating, but at least they'll know and will be able to move on with their lives.
Comments
to answer to the question in last comment:
how can a person who is exactly like u complete you?
imagin a half of a circle,.it will be complete and turn to a whole circle by another half of the circle,they both are exactly like eachother,but they complete eachother too.that's just a simple example of it.so,soulmates CAN complete eachother.and maybe your true love is your soulmate and maybe not,there is not a rule about it.but i think when your true love is your soulmate too,that's the most beautiful option.
and about brook's quote"lucas scott was the one boy that i would have lost it all for"i already explained this in my last comment,it seems you didnt notice it.i say it again,i think she meant she still havent find a guy as good as lucas.she still havent find a guy that she would have lost it all for again,like she did with lucas,and that she is still waiting for such a guy.and about the mouth thing,it is gigi who will come back and create drama for mouth and millicent.i read this in spoilers,but somewhere els i also read that rachel will be in season 6 too,but then again who knows.i guess we have to wait a few days and see,not just about this one,we are gonna find out about lucas and whom he is gonna call and marry,and whether dan is dead or not and so many other things,im excited about season 6 too!

Ok, so i've read what Anna has to say and I will admit, she brings up some valid points, but I think I can counteract some of them.
Yes, you will always see a connection, a deep connection between Lucus and Peyton. Infact, I do think they're soulmates. However, I do believe their is a difference between being soulmates and being the "one" for eachother. I think it comes down to a simple breakdown of Lucus' character.
Haley = best Friend. Definition of best friend means the person who grew up with you, knows you best, and is honestly the one person you know you can always count on, no matter what, to forgive you and always have your back.
Peyton = Soulmates. Soulmates is defined as the person who is most like you. Infact, if you look in a mirror or replaced bodies with eachother, the attitudes and personalities would be the same.
Brooke - True love always. The definition equals out to the one person who throughout time always holds that special place in your life, the one you've gone through so much with, your history, the one you fight for, the one who you see as you future. The one where even though people change, love remains the same.
Now sometimes, soulmates and best friends are one in the same i.e. Joey and Dawson. And your best friend can be your true love, i.e. Ross and Rachel. But never, EVER, is your soulmate the same as your lover.
Why can that be you ask? Real simple fact, we crave for a connection that is deep that it can overcome everything and anything, a yearning for something different, something that completes us. Now, I ask you, if the person you are meant to be with is EXACTLY like you, how can this person complete you?
Now, the point made about Brooke not loving Lucus that way is incorrect. Infact, if it was correct, why would she have said, "Lucus Scott was the one boy that I would have lost it all for." Plus she's just as upset about Lucus marrying Lindsey as Peyton was, she just showed a different way to show it. Proof in point. Karen returns to tell both girls that you may not get what you want in life, but what makes you stronger is finding something else that helps fill that void, and Brooke mentions a baby. Do you people honestly think it was a coincindence that Brooke gets baby angie after Lucus' almost wedding. Now i know the argument is going to be that she wanted that beforehand, but people, come on, this is television, do you really think that the timing of when we found out about this wasn't a little bit of foreshadowing about insecurities. You have to understand Brooke feels like Lucus is bound to Peyton forever, and they are in a way. This is her insecurity of thinking that he might not think of her the same way. She says so herself, and this is what Lucus is going to have to show her, is that she wants him to fight for her, show her she's the one, and we got a whole new season to see how this develops.
Ok, with the writing, that's a very good point you made about the writing, and I will agree, but come on, Him and Brooke were on the outs at that point, everyone knows it, why do you think he would use the words "for now she is" So even though his second passion is the writing, his writing always begins with a thought of Brooke. After all both Brooke Davis and Lucus Scott are going to change he world someday and they don't even know it. And it looks like they are in their ways.
Ok, and also with this comet angle. People are taking the comet way too literally. to quote Lucus, so what, Peyton drives a comet, why does everyone assume it's about Peyton. Last time I checked, Brooke returns the same time Peyton does, the rest of the book states the comet returns shows that his life has meaning. Why does it have to be Peyton? i find it way too ironic that both girls always happen to return at the same time, and we are to automatically assume it's about Peyton. Wish we knew more about that damn book. lol
My final thought is the dreams come true angle. Lucus claims to both girls he wants them their when his dreams come true. First Brooke then Peyton. But those are his words, and let's be honest, Lucas has no clue what he wants, it 's another underlying issue in the show. But, the facts show that the one common tread is that Brooke is ACTUALLY the one there when all his dreams come true.
I guess this shows season 6 is gonna be interesting.
Ps: I know this is not the subject to write about this, but does anyone else think rachel is coming back, and if she does, it's gonna create drama for Mouth and Millicent? There are many other things to focus on in this show. LOL
Ok, i'm done....for now :-)

LP needs to give it up. Seriuosly I'm sick of them. I agree with EVERYTHING Sam wrote!
BRING BRUCAS BACK for S6!!!
Posted by: Luvbrucas4eva | August 28, 2008 2:09 AM
OK, first, let me say that I don't happen to have a pre-occupation with either BL or LP. What I can say is that I have re-watched the whole series three times in the last few months. The very first time I saw the series, I thought it was obvious LP were meant for each other. But the more I see it, the more I question that. It almost seems like their initial attraction was a distraction from the upcoming Brucas relationship.
The thing that drives me crazy about all of it is that whenever Lucas is "fair game" Peyton doesn't seem to give a care. It's as soon as he's with someone (Brooke, Lindsay) that she chases him. S1, he's taken, she goes for it. S2, he's single, she wants Jake. S3, he's with Brooke, she kisses him. S5, he's about to marry Lindsay, and she kisses him again. The only exception is S4, and that was also after she had told him she loved him (not once, but twice - library school shooting, and in her room). Brooke, on the other hand, has never resorted to cheating or pining after taken men (unless you count Chris Keller). So in that regard I root for Brooke to simply get her way, whatever it is.
I also keep reading about "Lucas wrote this" and "Lucas said that." When has his word ever been final? I don't believe a word he writes or says about anyone. When he actually backs up his words, let me know.
So as of right now, I'm actually more interested in Lindsay, because she seems to be "what he wants," at least at the moment, lol. Either way, the show has more going for it than LP, BL, or LL, so just end it already!

oh my god,i cant believe that i have to comment again,first let me say im not a leytoner or brucaser,so im just gonna say what i think its true.
to sam,the perdon who wrote last comment,i should say i really liked the first half of your comment and i think what you said about season 1,season 2,and half of season 3 was right,but about the rest im not so sure.brook and lucas both admitted in front of brook's and rachel's house that what they had wasnt true love,and even before she admitted to rachel that she doesnt have have feelings for lucas anymore,so its not just about her insecurities about leyton.and about the hotel room in texas,yeah it was hard for her,because its hard for a girl to watch her ex having sex with someon els,especially almost not so long after their break up,wether she still have feelings for her ex or not,and she was more upset because she couldnt find the love she wantedand she was upet because her last few relationships failed.her exact words,not mine.(when she was talking to chris keller)and about the book thing,lucas started writting before the break up with brook,proof:one of the first sentences of his book was:brook daivis is my girlfriend,at least for now she is.and he started writting neither for brook or peyton,he started writting because it was his second passion in life and he admitted that he couldnt play basketball any longer.but about the second book,he definitely wrote because of peyton,if not,why would he refer to the comet thing???and in season 5 when brook said that about lucas,i think she maent she couldnt fimd a guy as good as lucas and that she is waiting and searching for the right person.but anyway i liked the reasoning thing about your comment.but i think brook definitely moved on an is waiting for the ONE.and in season 4 i definitelysaw a deep love between lucas and peyton,i dont think anyone acn deny it.what brook thinks is right,he always shares a deeper connection with peyton.and i think one of these two things will happen in season 6:
lucas picks lindsay but it wont work out and he will undrestand he made a mistake and will try to get peyton back.or:
lucasn picks peyton and they both find their happiness,until something will ruin it again,like pregnancy issue with lindsay,or something like that,but they will find a way to deal with it and will get through it.
so i think sooner or later it is leytoners that will be pleased not brucasers

Ok, first of let me explain that the very first episode I ever saw of One Tree Hill happened to be last season when I saw Peyton reject Lucus' proposal. Then I saw him meet up with Brooke and even though they didn't get together, I saw an amazing chemistry there and wondered what ever happened between the two of them so I decided to buy all the dvd's for everyone season and figure out this whole Brucus v. Leyton thing for myself before making a decision.
Ok, so onto the arguement...
Season 1 - Lucus and Peyton definately had this "tortured" chemistry thing where it was obvious they kinda were pining for eachother, and Brooke was a low class flirt who really was a little shallow and immature. Eventually Lucus got with Brooke but you always had a feeling that things wouldn't work out because of this attraction Lucus and Peyton shared and the differences that brucus had and the insecurities she felt with him. Her exact words were that she didn't feel like she was enough for him back then. The only good part about Brucus at that point in time was the fact that Brooke showed Lucus that he doesn't have to be "tortured" all the time. So eventually, with all the sneaking going on, Peyton and Lucus kinda get together. However, I also got the feeling that wasn't gonna be the end all because as nice as it was, there was just wasn't enough to go on, and they eventually decided to part ways when Lucus left. Infact when Lucus left, both Peyton and Brooke infact hated Lucus for leaving, so all those feeling went away. So the edge for season one goes to Leyton. Now...
Season 2 - Boy did this show take a drastic turn. Coming into this season, I have to say I felt a deeper connection with Leyton. However, I witnessed a drastic change in terms of the personality of Brooke. She stopped being the party girl and became more responsible and you witnessed a completely different girl. infact, I believe Mouth said it best in season 2 that the one thing Lucus and Brooke both shared is that they both have the same big heart. That fact cannot be lost, and I'll explain why later. The main point shared throughout all of season two was the "search" for love. deep, true, true love always love. The season can be summed up best in the finale with one simple quote. "Shaw once wrote that Gaining and Losing one's heart desire is considered tragic" That was the emphesis of the whole season. The search and lost of one's heart's desire and how each character viewed it. Ok, so let's look at how things went, when we left off, you had the feeling that Leyton would still have underlying issues. However, neither Lucus or Peyton searched for eachother as their heart's desire. Instead, Peyton found love in Jake and lost Jake at the same time. Therefore tragic, but completely worth it in peyton's eyes because she got the one thing she wished for in this world most and that was to find love. And Lucus was to be credited for that because he brough jake back into Peyton's life. Right there, you saw a dramatic shift in how they viewed eachother. Lucus didn't crave Peyton or vice versa. He was there to "save her" when she needs to be saved. He will always be there to save her when she needs to be saved. Just like he will always be there to save Haley when she needs to be saved. Proof in that, he leaves to New York and makes Haley realize that the music means nothing without Nathan and her true, real friends. Does that mean romance for Lucus and Haley? No, so why does everyone assume it needs to be with Peyton? Further, Lucus' search for one's heart desire does not lead him towards Peyton, after witnessing a change in Brooke, his heart's desire leads him towards Brooke. Fact 1, Lucus tells Anna that there's a girl from his past that he screwed up with that he needs to find because he feels like she's slipping away and he has to tell her how he feels. Even Anna, who was not around during the whole original love triangle, realizes that he's talking about Brooke, not Peyton. Fact 2, when Brooke is leaving for Cali, Lucus convinces his mom to let her move in, which once again, helps change brooke's character by showing her a "real mother." He tells her he's not ready to lose the girl behind the red door and she was not ready to be lost. Season 2 was about actually developing a chemistry between a new Brooke and Lucus, which took the whole season, and let's be honest here, everyone could see it. However, toward the end, a big stab that brough Brooke back to her insecurities were the letters she found of Peyton. That put her guard up again which is why she was afraid to be with Lucus even though Peyton told her it was ok. Because she was scared to let Lucus back in because the good guys lie to get into your heart. Her words not mine. So he confesses his love to her, and we are left wondering if Brucus is meant to be. Keep in the mind, the general point of the story shifts from two brothers to their relationships with their friends. So season 2 goes to brucus. Which brings us into season 3.....
Season 3 - By far and away the best season on the show. There was so many twists and turns. first fact against Leyton, guys come on, they had all summer to rekindle a romance and Lucus still wanted Brooke, and showed no interest in Peyton all season. We return to see that Brooke wrote all these love notes to Lucus, once again showing the maturity of Brooke, but her insecurities about Peyton and Lucus, forced her not to send them. So Lucus fights for her. As a guy, you have no idea how hard it is for a guy to truly fight for her, but if you feel it's worth it, you do. He put up with all the crap she gave him about the non-exclusive thing, to sleeping with Chris, and in the end, the best scene of all time, when Brooke finally confesses her love to Lucus, he forgives her, like she forgives him for everything, and they admit they love eachother. The first time either one of them admitted anything to that nature. Their love seemed so genuine and real and it seemed perfect. However, Peyton was going through a bad time in her life and she needed Lucus and Lucus was there for her. It was hard for Brooke but she had to see if she could trust Lucus and Peyton had shown no interest in Luke for a while so she had the feeling that her best friend was over him. It seemed to be going great until Keith dies. We see a change in Lucus and as much as Brooke tries to get in to save him, no one can. Not even Haley. He needs to go through this alone, that's just Lucus' tortured personality. Eventually, he breaks through until we get toward the end where Peyton realizes that she might have feeling for Lucus again. Now, the biggest issue with this is that she tells Brooke. Brooke's biggest fear in the world is that Lucus is not over Peyton which is the underlying story. That brings out all of Brooke's insecurities about her relationship with Lucus. Remember, she has a hard time with this major issue and it's a big issues. it's the same issue Pacey always wrestled with Dawson and Joey until the very end. Soul mates vs. true love always. The end of this season is very key, Peyton asks Brooke is she really loves Lucus. Brooke doesn't give an answer. But the last scene between the two of them, Brooke says to Peyton, "You know, you asked me if I love Lucus, and I have my answer, but you don't deserve to hear it." You figure out her answer in later seasons, but she definately feels betrayed by Peyton for even questioning her feeling for Lucus because to be honest at this point in time it's not her place. So season 3 goes to Brucus. Which leads us to season 4....
Season 4 - Ok, to my previous question is yes, and I believe she realizes that but by the time she lets all the anger and hate go, it's too late which I will explain. Brooke's underlying feel of betrayal by Peyton has left her in a dark place in which Lucus is a victim because he really didn't do anything wrong, I know that might kill some girls for saying, but they've already forgiven eachother for their past mistakes in season 1 so Lucus gets thrown under a bus, and while the whole time fighting for Brooke in the beginning, he has Peyton there to save him. This fact cannot be lost because Peyton is there for him. And Lucus is there for her during the whole stalker incidents. These two will always be there to save eachother. Just like Lucus and Haley save eachother. Lucus' heart wouldn't have it any other way, like Brooke's is. Which I will explain later. First off, I've read a lot of people explain that Lucus only writes because of Peyton. Ummm, to be honest, if you look at the facts, Lucus writes about his life while he is going through it, but he starts writing ALWAYS because of Brooke. When Brooke and Lucus break up, he srats writing. Now, eventually, and this is what you Brucus fans have to hold onto, Brooke's maturity in life (kinda Karen'sh) rises to the top. She forgives Peyton and realizes she needs her friend like she forgives and sees the good in rachel. Then even though Lucus always claimed that he wanted Brooke there when his dreams came true, Brooke sees still feels the insecurities about Leyton and pushes him towards Peyton and they start dating. Now, I know this next part is going to kill a lot of Leyton lovers out there, but when Leyton was together, even though it was nice, I never felt a "deep" love a fighting love that I witnessed in Season 3 between Brucus. Call it character chemistry, storyline, whatever, but it just wasn't as strong I'm sorry. I felt more to me like what Haley and Lucus would be like if they were ever to get together. But the problem with brucus that a lot of Brucus fans miss is that Brooke's insecurities about Leyton are still strong and unresolved which is why when they went to break Mouth out of jail, she couldn't bear to watch them in the hotel room. It's obvious she still has feeling for Lucus but she doesn't feel like Lucus' connection to her is as strong as it is toward Peyton, which as incorrect as it might be, it's how Brooke sees the situation. So what we learn from season 4 is that Brooke still has feelings for Luke, but her heart is the same as Luke's and if she feels Lucus' feeling are for Peyton she's not gonna stand in the way, unlike Peyton does, sorry. So season 4 goes to Leyton but barely. Actually some might say that it could go either way. Which leads us to season 5....
Season 5 - Boy has Tree Hill Changed. First off, Peyton does return for Lucus but for people who think that Lucus returned for Peyton, that's not true. He was happy with lindsey, sorry but it's the truth. He returned to find himself. That's why he returned. Brooke returned because she has accomplished everything in her life that she focused on since breaking up with Lucus and she was never as happy as she was in tree hill but still has her huge heart, like Lucus. Peyton craves Lucus, Lucus doesn't crave Peyton. Oh, and to the book phase, yeah, Lucus starts writing again, but only after the episode where Peyton resuses his proposal he spends the day with Brooke, goes to see Brooke and they discuss that day wondering if things would turn out differently. Sorry, but it's the truth. Also, as much as people say that Lucus wants Peyton there when all his dreams come true, the one person who is actually there is Brooke. So you can definately witness the chemistry. However, you can't deny that Brooke still feels like Leyton is to be together. Eventually, Lucus and Lindsay break up leaving him in a dark place, and the person who saves him this time is Brooke not Peyton, and the person who saves Brooke during baby angie is Lucus. They even admit that they will always love eachother. And Brooke also states in the season that Lucus Scott was the one boy that she might have lost it all for. So she definately loves him. But Brooke's insecurities tell her that Lucus is bound to be with Peyton and she won't get in the way which is why she didn't hook up with him. At this point Lucus is definately a little lost on love which is why Haley tells him to stop hiding his heart. So then we have the cliff hanger which i won't get into cause you all know......
So my predictions..........
Season 6 - Brooke has insecurities she needs to overcome with Leyton so I'm sorry Brucus fans, but your best hope is that he chooses Peyton to begin this season. Why do i say that, because if he chooses Peyton, it's way too early to solve the crisis, which leads to eventually Lucus realizing that even though him and Peyton are soulmates, Brooke is his love but he's gotta fight for her and leave Peyton for her and show her that he wants her. True love always wins out right. So if the story is just beginning, and Peyton is who he chooses first, I think the end all with please Brucus fans, but you gotta be patient and let the story develop because Brooke's insecurities have always been an underlying issue through the whole term of this show.
So endgame = Brucus!! you just have to play it out.

to person who respond me and about the conversation between lucas and kaeren,i should say the moment before that conversation, brook told lucas:"i love you and i probably always will".so i dont think lucas thought that she didnt love him back,so i think the conversation was about himself.and yes,he loved brook,he probably loved lindsay,peyton loved jake too,so they can love other people,BUT as i said they cant love other people the way they love eachother and as much as they love eachother.and skillz and brook didnt push him,they made him face his feelings for peyton
Posted by: mary | August 19, 2008 2:19 PM
its funny,lpers think that blers are not logical and blers think the same about lpers!anyway,i dont care,i just hope lucas finally make up his mind and choose someone and stick with it!and i dont know that if lucas still loves peyton or not,but about the last comment lucas did look at peyton the way he looked at her in season one,specially in season 4 and a few moments in season 5,i can tell you that
Posted by: hanna | August 19, 2008 11:53 AM
LEYTON NEEEDDS TO GIVE IT UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
you cant say it enough!
>To marry the talk Lucas had with Karen wasnt about Brooke it was about Lucas. And Brooke never really got over Lucas since in S5 she said that she could have lost it all for Lucas Scott. And Peyton on the other was not willing to quit her crappy mail job. That just shows which girl really loves Lucas.
Brucas was not anymore highschool than Leyton. Leyton was together after highschool but they didnt keep in touch and couldnt make it. And back to that denial thing. Yeah I dont know why its so hard for LPers to think that its impossible for Lucas and Peyton to fall in love with other people. Lucas made it pretty clear that he wanted and loved Brooke NOT Peyton in s2 and 3. Both girls were available in S2 but Lucas picked Brooke. And when he said "I do" to Lindsey he was once agian in denial. I am ofcourse being sarcastic. Lucas really did love Lindsey and Brooke. LPers love to play the denial card because they never want to use logic and resonsing for anything. I think the only girl he showed the least interest in was Peyton. After season 1 he didnt even look at her in that way. Until Brooke and Skills pushed him towards Peyton. Peyton herself kept on questioning Lucas' love for Brooke almost like she wanted Lucas to stop fighting for her and start going after her. I cant believe how many times I heard "are you sure Lucas" Lucas showed her her place when he said "you cant help you love Peyton" and he was talking about BROOKE. lol
I really hope Mark reads this and realizes what a huge mistake Leyton was/is.

about the last comment,i dont know that if brucas has a larger fanbase or not,maybe it really has,i dont know but there was some comments that was written twise,by several ids,and it was from both lpers and blers.and about the comment that was written in to response me.im a NH fan,i think they are the main couple of the show,so im not going to die if P and L wont end up together and im not insecure with my life,trust me on that,but about PLB i prefer L with P,and i already said my reasons,but i didnt mean to offense anyone or anyone's opinion,and im sorry if i made u angry and upset,but u could respond me more politely,cause after all this is a civilized discussion,right?you could say what you thinke is wrong,or something like that
Posted by: mina | August 5, 2008 5:50 AM
Leyton needs to give it up. They have no chemistry and look disgustiing together.
Also I read someones comment accusing BLers yet again of having fake acounts...Seriously, deal with it Brucas has a larger fanbase.
Posted by: luvbrucas4eva | August 4, 2008 2:26 AM
first,about a comment down there from tara i have to correct the quote she wrote
lucas:mom,what did u do when dan didnt LOVE U BACK?how did you get over it?
karen:when i do i will get back to u!
yes,and this was right after brook broke up with lucas,and she said u dont miss me and all the other stuff u all know.lucas asked this question because he was worried about brook,because he wanted to know that can brook get over him,because he didnt love her back the way she deserved and deep down he knew it(and thank god brook did move on).and about some other comment that said "brucas wasnt like whitey and camilla"isnt a good reason and that everyone's love is different from the other ones,i should say yes
its different,but they didnt say they had to be exactly like them,what they meant was that their love for each other wasnt true love,
like someone said it was like a high school romance,and they realized it themselves.and someone said peyton screwed brucas,i have to say,it was lucas' feelings towards peyton that ruined brucas(althogh he did his best to deny them and hide them,something that he did again when he was with lindsay,but in both times eventually his true feelings came out)
and besid i really love brook,she deserves to be with someone who can love her completely and with his whole heart,and i know and she realized it herself that lucas cant love anybody the way he loves peyton or as much as he loves peyton.(although he have a problem to admit that)in naly's wedding:
lucas:i love u,i dont know how els to say it
brook:how about to show it........why dont u ever let me all the way in?(while she pointed at his heart in the same time).anyway the point of the questino is about leyton,but i had to said those things.as for leyton i'd like to remind a quote that brook said in naleys wedding:when things get hard,when every thing changes,true love remains the same.
its been like 5 or 6 years(or even more)that they love eachother,and they still do love eachother,although i admit both of them screwed a lot,but they were and still are so young,and people in young age makes a lot of mistakes,we all have made our own mistakes,so i believe they should not give up.and im sorry for my english,its not my first language.
Posted by: mary | August 3, 2008 1:59 PM
to who ever that sent that pathetic message two comments down
you must revolve youre life around this show too much, because you sound like if peyton and lucas arn't end game, your going to die
the only one who sounds insecure about thier love life is you
but whatever. my vote goes to brooke and lucas, but truly, if they don't get back together, i'm NOT going to go into cardiac arrest.

oh,and one more thing about the last comment before me,lucas told brook that he is the guy for her,but i have to remind he also took it back later.
so my final word is that lp should not give up,though i admit im tired of this,so please let these two be together.

brucas was over,long time ag.i dont undrestand why some people insist so much that they have to be toghether,they realized it themselvese that they were not meant to be,why dont u guys get it?brucas is not even there anymore,the choice is between peyton and lindsay.and i have to tell u that i watched every season several times,and im sure that mark considered lucas and peyton to end up toghether since the beginig,cause even when brook and luke were together,there was always such a doubt in brook's eyes about lucas' feelings,cause she knew that deep down he loved peyton.but i think the reason that many people hate leyton is that in real life they r in brook's position,they r hurt because someone didnt love them because of somebody els

LP neeeeeeds to give it up already...damn it! their story line wasnt interesting in s1 and its not interesting now. They are just a miserable couple, and have zero chemistry.
Here's why they dont belong togther:
-They are fake
-They look alike
-They are boring
-They dont grow as a couple
-They are wayyyyyyy better with other people (Lucas with Brooke and Peyton with Jake)
-They are annoying and pathetic
-They are too depressing
-They have no personality
-Both Lucas and Peyton need Brooke in their lives to have some personality
-They hurt people
-They cheat
-They have never fought for each other
-They bail on each other
-They dont deserve a happy ending
-Lucas belongs with Brooke
-Peyton belongs with Jake
-S2
-S3
-They are better off as friends
-They make people not watch OTH
-They make the worst couples ever look good
-They make no sense
-Peyton is too obssesed with Lucas
-They have no couple like issues
- Lucas said "I do" to Lindsey
- Lucas said "I hate you" to Peyton
-Their love is not reciprocal
-Lucas never seems interested in Peyton except in S1 we all know it was just a crush
-Lucas's response to Brooke's "ILY" was "ILY too Pretty girl"
-Lucas's response to Peyton's "ILY" was "OH"
- He wanted to try again with Brooke
-Brooke Davis is the one for Lucas Scott
-Lucast Scott is the guys for Brooke davis (His words not mine)
-Brooke's his pretty girl and Peyton's his....ummm umm... nothing!
- Broody belongs with Cheery
-Lucas and Brooke were fun
- Brucas had amazing chemistry
-Peyton proposed to Jake
-Lucas was Brooke's first Love
-Jake was Peyton's first love
-Brucas, Naley and Jeyton is the way its suppose to be
Can you honestly image the show just being about Leyton? It would be the worst show ever. With Peyton painting emo art and Lucas on his laptop. While emo music plays in the background.
Thank God for Brucas, Naley and Jeyton!

HERE IS WHAT LP's concept of LOVE is: "If we can't be together, we can't be happy. We are only happy when we have each other and we both know that. That's why I want you so much. I wanted to be with you so much. Just because I go saying no to your proposal (Peyton) and I said "I do" to another girl (Lucas) doesn't mean the end. I still want you. All the time. Even when it makes me sick and I cry a lot. You and I SHOULD be together. I love you."
I don't care which ways Mark wants to end it...if he wants Leyton to be end-game then whatever. I never approved of this couple to be a romantic kind. Platonic and meaningful, yes. They have a special, complex connection. But not as a romantic couple.LEYTON are MORE THAN FRIENDS but also LESS THAN LOVERS. So if LP is end-game, then that's just sad. OTH lost one point on that part. At least we still have Naley.
Posted by: eka-chan | July 28, 2008 1:59 AM
Leyton all the way. I've watched the season from the beginning and its always been a fight between Brucas and Leyton. Even when Luke was with Brooke he always came back to Peyton and even in the 5th season when Luke was with Lindsey he still looked back at Peyton. If Mark puts Brucas back together I probably will be ready to leave OTH for good. Everyone says they broke up b/c of the divorce in real life and yes that is partially true, but why would you want a couple on TV to be so fake when you know they dislike each other in real life. In the beginning they had chemistry but now if they are back together it will just look utterly sad and a desperate attempt to make the so called fans happy. So to me its Leyton all the way and hopefully Brooke can find someone else in the meantime.
Posted by: Sam | July 27, 2008 11:37 AM
Urgh. Leyton. The spoilers are absolutely AWFUL. I thought Mark said he would make the decision who to take to Vegas ultimately on the poll, which was Brooke!! (right?)
There are so many more Brucas fans, and new ones regularly, despite Mark romantically ignoring Brucas, except for about 2 episodes this season.
If Leyton are endgame, Mark had better get ready for thousands of venomous e-mail, and nasty parcels - and thats just from me.
(Jokes about the parcels, but not about the hate mail. I wont stop for years, until I release all the pent-up anger/frustration, if BL aren't together.)
Posted by: Tarara | July 26, 2008 9:09 AM
I want to know why some people think Lucas and Peyton are soulmates? WHY? Because Lucas had a crush on her throughout school? Because they almost got in a hit in run? Because he fixed her car? Because they cheat on people to satisfy their needs? Because Lucas uses recycled lines on her? Because they had sex in a dirty motel room? Because they had a cookie dough fight they couldn't pull off to save their lives?
They are so boring! There is absolutely nothing interesting about this couple. They like the same music, they wear the same clothes, they have the same hair, they're both tortured - when did this become a good thing by the way? Did I miss where they became epic? He wrote a book based on what? A bloody leg, cheating, and a psycho stalker? So Peyton is weak, that makes their love undeniable? I don't get it! The writers just needed to shove them in somewhere a long the way.

I love brucas; they formed out of undeniable love for two people. Leyton was made out of Cheating and selfish heartbreaking confessions. Brucas just feels better in my opinion.
I know everyone has there own opinion and I appreciate them, so this was just my opinion of the relationships, and I am in no way bashing anyone, and I apologize if someone takes it that way. This is just the thought of a Brucas fan.

lucas and peyton are so DISGUSTING together
in season 4 i was llterally throwing up at the site of them being together EVERY SINGLE SECOND
wayyyy to much cheese
they are just lying to themselves. even peyton just said that half of her just wanted to be with lucas, because she like the idea of it
brooke loves him. i can tell

I just read the new spoiler and OMG!
Im done...Im going to watch OTH anymore.
Mark are you serious?!? Leyton? come on its gottat be Brucas it just has end it with them...That couple has been through so much, their always there for each other thats how you know for sure that they belong togther. Leyton does nothing but hurt people closest to them and disgust people. They little to no chemistry and send a bad message. This whole epic love this HAS to stop! Leyton is NOT epic at all....I cant even think of a couple worst than them.
Majority of OTH fans like Brucas better, then why would you even go with that digusting couple?
Posted by: sammy | July 23, 2008 7:49 PM
Leyton needs to give it up!!! god...Im soo sick of seeing these two pathetic characters together. Lucas and Brooke were soo much better. I just cant believe the new spoilers they are soo upsetting...I cant believe Mark would do that to us Brucas fans again! seriously Mark you better get it right in the end...stop playing with us Leyton beyond boring...I dont know why you cant see that!
BRUCAS <3, Naley, Jeyton is the way to go Markie.
Brucas forever and ever!
Posted by: Sydney | July 23, 2008 7:38 PM
Lucas and Peyton need to give it up already. They are hopeless as a couple. All of season 4 and season 5 revolved around them and I think we can all say that they dont have what Brooke and Lucas or Jake and Peyton had. We all know that they can be happy with other people...much much much happier. Lucas with Brooke and Peyton with Jake. Thats the way its suppose to be. Everyone on the show telling them that they are "epic" or "meant to be" is not good enough.
I have never shipped Leyton not even in season 1. I just couldnt ship a couple that cheats and hurts people. That is not love. Their love is never reciprocal. They have never fought for each other. They bail on each other the second things get tough. Where as Brooke and Lucas have stuck together through everyting, they have fought for each other.
Making Leyton endgame would mean that its ok to cheat and hurt the people closest to you. Leyton is definitely NOT the ultimate OTH couple. They never were and I dont think they ever can be. They NEED to give it up!!!Mark needs to put an end to this disgusting couple.
Posted by: BLNHfan91 | July 23, 2008 5:26 PM
Here's why LP should not end up together...it's simple...
most of the LP fans do not deserve a happy LP ending for crucifying BLers since the beginning...gloating and bragging, even when brucas were together.
just as LP do not deserve to be together.
LP have lied their way to get together from the beginning (have lied to everyone and their mother, not to mention themselves), and they are still in season 5, currently lying their way to be together now
95% of the LP fans tend to brag and gloat...and trust me, this is on every single One Tree Hill forum i've ever been on.
i am sick of those arrogant high-horsed lper who act like their mark schwan.
always crucifying us...why do we still ship brucas? luke was a bad boyfriend blah blah blah
let me ask u why do u still ship LP...he treated her like crap just the same when they were apart.
95% of the lp fanbase want to take everything they think is good from the BL relationships, they want to suck the life out of BLers, they make shipping fictional couples not fun anymore.
these spoilers are getting to the lpers heads...
they refuse to acknowledge that brucas has a chance.
we brucasers DO know that lp has a bigger chance, but we also believe brucas has a chance too.
when it's just BL, luke changes brooke to be a better person, just as brooke changes luke to be a better person.
when lucas and peyton are together, they are the most selfish, and inconsiderate couple i have ever seen on tv.

Posted by: BL4Life | July 23, 2008 1:21 AM
WOW Laura that was very very well said...I concur 110%
Brooke and Lucas belong together always have always will...We all know that Peyton was much much happier with Jake...so please Mark do the right thing and make Brucas endgame...I will be extremely sad if they are not! I have watched the show again and again and I seriously tried to like Leyton but I a just couldn't...I did not watch 5 seasons of this show for you to make this cheating, lying, fake couple that has no chemistry what-so-ever called Leyton to be endgame...I beg of you!
It saddens me that you would Make Lucas's character propose to Peyton again...I have very very little respect for Peyton and if she says "yes" to Lucas's proposal...I will have absoloutely NO respect for Peyton.
If Brucas and Jeyton aren't endgame then what the hell were seasons 2 and 3 and part season 4 for?
Just so you know S4 sucked and you didnt cater to Brucas fans at all thats why we feel ignored most of the time! Because even when Brucas was together Leyton had soo many scenes together.
Please Mark please...make Brucas, Naley and Jeyton endgame thats the way its suppose to be, and everybody knows it. You have 1 season to redeem youself...make history and do something unpredictable! like Joey and Pacey
Posted by: BL4life | July 22, 2008 9:45 PM
I am a huge fan of the show and all its characters... i think Peyton is awesome! but i just dont feel the chemistry with her and Lucas.... they are friends and they are good at friends ..... i am however a brucas fan ..... i am watching season 3 right now, and its just reminding me of there love for one another, honestly him and peyton never had the same chemistry.
Posted by: rhonda | July 22, 2008 1:26 AM
well, at this point, brucas doesn't make any sence.. even if they had a good chemistry.. now its not even about brooke.. now, the thing is.. Peyton or lindsay..and, come one.. we all know, that lucas and peyton are meant to each other, the whole novel thing...it is so obvious!!
i'm TOTALY FOR LEYTON!
LUCAS

PEYTON

TRUE LOVE ALWAYS

if anyone watched the interview with the writer, mark, he said that he has been looking at the polls and he said brooke and luke own the majority of the votes, with peyton and luke behind them, and then of course lindsey and luke who own only a few votes.
he said that after some thought, his decision on who he will be taking to vegas will ultimately be based on what the people want
i for one, am rooting for brooke and lucas!
this is going to be very interesting

i think that brooke and lucas are good together
remember at the start of season 4 when brooke broke up with lucas?
lucas: mom? you loved dan in highschool didn't you?
karen: strangely enough yes
lucas: how did you get over it when he stopped missing you?
karen: when i do, i'll get back to you
in season 5 i noticed that in the ep of when lucas and lindsey were getting married, brooke pictured herself in the wedding dress she made for lindsey, because she always thought she was going to marry lucas, i had a feeling brooke still loves lucas

I'm sick of Leyton! They do not have chemistry together. Yeah, it seemed like at first they were destined to be together but the fact is that Peyton has better chemistry with jake and lucas has better chemistry with brooke. that's how it should end. it should be NALEY, JEYTON AND OF COURSE BRUCAS. Everybody who likes LEYTON is because it seemed since the beggining that they were meant to be, but if you really look at the chemistry it's just not there. When I see peyton and lucas together it reminds me of his relationship with haley but they sleep together. It's more of a friendship!
BRUCAS 2GETHER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BECAUSE THEIR HEARTS ARE THE SAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
Posted by: Brucas2gether | July 18, 2008 4:26 AM
Leyton is old new. They need to bring back Brucas! I love Brooke and Lucas together. They are soo cute together! I want them to be an item again. I don't really like Peyton's chracter. She gets do dark and I thought her and Jake made a really good couple and she was really good with Jenny. So those are my thoughts about Leyton! BRING BACK BRUCAS
Posted by: Mary | July 17, 2008 12:09 AM
i dont understand why people are still routing for brucas anyway..the whole entire beginning of season 5..brooke knew that lucas still loved peyton and that they were going to get together. she even told peyton to go get him..so i honestly dont think she would do that to her best friend again..even in season 4 when they got together brooke told him to go to her...just doesnt look like its in the picture. lucas started writing again when she came back..and the novel was obviously about her. Even when they were about to get married he looked out at her sitting down. In "In da club" after she kissed him..he pulled away..but looked at her again and pulled her in. its always been there it always will be! so brucas fans..just give up :)
Posted by: amanda | July 15, 2008 5:08 PM
In some ways One Tree Hill reminds me of Dawson's Creek. Originally Joey and Dawson were set up and "destined" to be together. But eventually it was really clear that Joey and Pacey had more chemistry together. Even though Lucas and Peyton were supposed to be together from the start, I think it would be very cool if the writers were able to overcome the original plan and follow the course of events that has happened. Lucas and Brooke had wonderful chemistry. They work better onscreen. I've had enough "Leyton,"
Posted by: Emily | July 14, 2008 7:14 PM
The Ultimate OTH Couple is NOT LEYTON.no way in hell.comeon?!

I would be really disappointed if Lucas and Peyton don't end up together. I can't beleive that it's even possible that after all the grief season 5 put us through looking at the two of them yearn for eachother painfully (even though Luas was engaged), that they could end up apart. I think I would stop watching if they don't get together. I mean, we ha to at let try it one last time! This is a very important story line for the show. It was the foundation of the entire last season! What's all the fuss for if they don't end up together. Lucas and Linsay irritates me.
I'm for Lucas and Peyton!
Posted by: LPFan | July 14, 2008 11:43 AM
In the beginning I really loved Lucas and Peyton together but since the second season I can't really feel the chemistry between them. I don't know if Brooke is the right girl for Lucas. I like them when their together but whenever they were apart I so didn't understand the way Brooke behaved. But I totally fell in Love with the relationship between Peyton and Jake. I just loved them in the first two seasons. They are so perfect for each other. I hope Bryan Greenberg is returning to One Tree Hill now that October Road is finished though I don't know why he left the show in the first place.
But apart from that I don't care if Leyton exists or not. I'd just like it to be a final decision for once. I'm really fed up with this whole breaking up and getting back together thing.
But anyway the ultimate OTH couple for me is Nathan and Haley. This family is so sweet.
Posted by: Franzi | July 12, 2008 7:57 AM
if the story does not end up with Leyton's unity, i will lose hope and might stop watching the show altogether. S6 did bring much agony. i felt for Peyton. no prom queen waits for anyone like that. if Lucas does not find his way back to her...at least bring Jake Jigielski back.
Posted by: Emilia Ninh | July 12, 2008 12:27 AM
I am so tired of Lucas and Peyton! They both cant figure out what they want and when they do, they can never make it work. It makes less interested in their characters and watching them. And when Peyton is depressed about Lucas all the time, it makes her character quite boring. Yes, they had a connection at the start but in their own way, all the couples had connections. They just have a very strong friendship but can never seem to make it work when it is more than that. I think we need to bring back Jake for Peyton because that is the only relationship in which she has been truly happy, there was no sneaking or cheating behind friend's backs to be together and there was no drama between the couple that lasted 5 seasons. Jake and Peyton had a true connection and they were an amazing couple, a family. I believe that Brooke and Lucas have a stronger romantic connection and bond with eachother than Lucas and Peyton.
Naley. Brucas. Jayton.
:)
If you agree and believe that Jake and Peyton belong together, please sign this petition to get Jake back on the show and in the arms of his princess! Peyton and Jake are meant to be, just like Nathan and Haley and Brooke and Lucas!

Posted by: Emma | July 11, 2008 7:48 AM
I think that Lucas and Peyton are destined to be together since season one. it's like derek and meredith in grey's anatomy!Certain couples are bound to be because of the chemistry but also because the story ,although other people come and go, remains their story since the beginning and forever.
Posted by: rosa green | July 11, 2008 5:30 AM
Leyton have to be together.
I know, they hurt theirselfs when they were together, but they also had the greatest time in season 4, they were fun and really, REALLY happy. Come on, everyone knows that the word hurt comes with the word love. Who's dating or even married obviusly have already been hurt by your partner, but when you get together, when your partner tells you he's sorry, when he/she tells you he/she love you and you apologyse, don't you feel this amazing feeling? You know what? This is one of the most amazing feelings of love. Guys, can't you see that is always been Lucas and Peyton? They meant to be together. And if they don't, i would be so upset, i might don't believe in love anymore. Brooke has already forget Lucas, and he neither! They are great friends... Brooke has to be with Chase, they are so cute!
And you guys, i can see that you are all so angry about Peyton, but you should be mad at Lucas, he is the one that is wrong, he is the one that is always unsure about who he has to be. Come on, if Peyton is so bad why would Brooke be her friend? You should think about that...
LEYTON = TRUE LOVE ALWAYS.
Posted by: Gabriela | July 10, 2008 5:51 PM
I would like to see Peyton and Lucus together it's been long over due. There is always something in the way when it comes to the both of them. I think it's time for them to be together. We've all seen what they look like when their apart (we got it). If anything that's what were really tired about, the fact that their always close, but never quite there. We need to see how a relationship will be with them together once and for all and if it does not work out at least we can say they tired and it just didn't work out. As for Brooke, they need to return Chase back for her I think they would make a better couple. Right about now Lucus and her are should just stay great friends.
Posted by: Esther | July 10, 2008 11:52 AM
i think the best couple in these series is brucas. leyton doesn't have that chemistry that is really obvious at brucas. i am totally for brucas as i think they are perfect for each other. the way lucas changes brooke and the way brooke changes him are absolutely wow. leyton is boring
Posted by: andreea | July 10, 2008 6:34 AM
Leyton may be the same worlds and want the same things but they repel when tests for endurance call their bluff. And they just want to keep each other to feed their own selfish desires. Luke wanted to marry Peyton so he could have what he used to have with Brooke. Peyton refused the proposal because she knows she could not have Lucas the same way she had everything with Jake. Lucas and Peyton getting married while sharing this 'epic love' is a great idea, Mark, but there is not development, no real trials they have to defeat so how convincing can they be as a couple, let alone be married? They never gave any effort to be together and once they are, they discuss about promises that will be broken or they angst each other until they grow weary and want to be the "epic love" they were (have they ever been?)
The real knock-out is their concept of happiness together:
BRUCAS: "Even if you can't be with me, I will be happy for you because I have you in my heart and I'm there in yours. And even if you marry somebody else or if I marry somebody else, you're the friend I go to for my good times and bad times. You support me and believe in me (Brooke) and you listen to me when I hurt (Lucas) I love you."
LEYTON: "If we can't be together, we can't be happy. We are only happy when we have each other and we both know that. That's why I want you so much. I wanted to be with you so much. Just because I go saying no to your proposal (Peyton) and I said "I do" to another girl (Lucas) doesn't mean the end. I still want you. All the time. Even when it makes me sick and I cry a lot. You and I SHOULD be together. I love you."
See what I mean?
BRUCAS, JEYTON and NALEY forever! =3
JEYTON: He gave her strength to overcome her emotional shortcomings and he didn't have to write a book about it
Posted by: eka-chan | July 9, 2008 4:09 AM
I get it. Leyton is always there. Yes, yes, they love each other! But to be in a relationship that entails commitment and emotional supoort? Lucas is better committed to Brooke, even as friends in s5. Jake might have left but he said that someday he will come back for her. Peyton doesn't have to wait but she doesn't have to confuse and fool herself either with these notions about being with Lucas forever. Leyton exists forever but not in a romantic sense. Leyton is a beautiful connection but more of a platonic form. Leyton is filled with complexities and trappings but more of two people who reflect each other's fears, preferences and insecurities. Leyton is incomparable but not always in the best light. Leyton is both a bargain and a deadend. If friends, they grow but once they try to be involved romantically, they end up destroying each other.
Brucas. I believe they could still be together. But Lindsey seems good for Lucas too. And Peyton? She can survive. She learned how to so why is she being so impatient and willing to settle down for the least availability? Because it's that, available? Like Lucas? Whenever he was, she doesn't want him. Then when he isn't, she wants him back. Really. This isn't working at all. Leyton is just not working anymore. Mark...dearest Mark, don't try making Leyton so epic and meant-to-be when all signs, seriously, point to the contradiction.
Truth to be told, I like Leyton pictures. I collect them. They look so good and happy in the banners and wallpapers and icons the LP fans make that I collect them. But I look at these pictures and I see Ally Mcbeal and John Cage, Anna and Seth from the OC, Lily and Ted from "How I met your mother" hell, even Will and Grace (but the last two cited are Laley-oriented as well but i hope you get my point. These are examples of platonic love) and the Leyton kissing scenes seem..wrong. No combustion. Too awkward. Leyton posses the quality of strong "same sides" attracting each other but in the end "has to repel when a romantic angle enters." Two people can connect like Leyton and remain as friends. They have once. So, Mark, really, wtf?
Posted by: eka-chan | July 9, 2008 4:08 AM
There is a post floating around on here somewhere from an LPer stating the reason she doesn't like BL is because of the BL fans immaturity, and I just had to laugh. Mainly because me and her have the same views, just on different ships. I have gotten to the point where I will like LP, and then an LPer will completely ruin it for me by making some rude, stupid, or completely immature comment that completely turns me off of the couple.
I guess the point I am trying to make is DON'T be so biased about who ships what couple because truth is there is just as many immature, whiny LPers as there are immature whiny BLers...
Posted by: Anonymous | July 9, 2008 1:07 AM
leyton needs to give it up...they do not have the kind of love that makes you fight for the other at all costs...lucas broke up with peyton after she said someday and didnt call her for a year...peyton saw the cheek kiss and ran away without even being there for lucas on his big day...if your fear of committment overcomes your love for that other person then its not worth it

I think for season 6 it should be lucas and peyton and brooke and chase(he's always there when brooke needs him and plus she deserves to be happy) of course naley she be together I'm a leyton fan but can they show the other charcters more cuz I feel like the shows only about leyton please put chase with brooke
P.s. Can't wait for season 6
Posted by: laura | July 8, 2008 3:02 AM
Simply can't get over the fact that all the LP'ers keep sayin that luke always goes to peyton even if he's with brooke blah blah. Ok, the first time they cheated, Luke was the one who learned more from his mistake.
He made the effort to make things right with brooke, and tried to become a better person and he and brooke became really close again. Even peyton noticed this (when she was with jake) and told brooke that it wud definately not be inappropriate for her to have feelings for luke.
Peyton knew about the letters brooke wrote to luke, still at the end of 3x16 she goes and kisses luke again coz she's about to die. Luke DID NOT cheat on brooke, peyton being such a close friend, it just caught him off guard and he wud definately not say or do anything to get peyton more upset in that situation. Fine that was just a moment coz peyton thought she was dying. The most messed up part is, she's starting to have feelings for luke AGAIN. But she goes to jake and asks him if he wants to get MARRIED??? While jake also knows she has feelings for luke, that gives her the right to play with the jake's heart tooo ??? To have told brooke that she kissed luke might've been fine, but to tell brooke she's having the same feelings for luke but she'l bury them ???
I wonder if Luke knows that Peyton had asked Jake to marry her ?
Please Mark, do you really want to end the show with a couple which has to cheat to get together or hurt the feelings of others they love ???
In reply to Brittany Jean
Reasons why BL should be end game.
- Because Luke had given exactly 2 embarassing speeches in his life, and they were both with brooke (S 3)
- Because he certainly made predictions about peyton since 7th grade, but he stopped making predictions about peyton once he was with BROOKE (Hailey mentioning the predictions to peyton - S 5)
- Because KEITH told luke that I think You're good! (S 1 - when luke chose brooke over peyton)
- Because luke gave his room to brooke so that she didnt have to move to california (S 2)
- Because KEITH always saw brooke and luke together and he noticed how happy luke was (S 3 - when keith returns)
- Because luke was willing to PROVE his love to brooke which he did (S 3)
- Because he did not say "OH" to brooke when brooke told luke she loved him
- Because luke did not have to be persuaded by a number of people to realise that he loves brooke
- Because even after luke cheated on brooke (peyton), and brooke broke luke's heart (chris kellar), they both had it in each other's hearts to forgive, thats how much they love each other (S 1-3)
- Because technically BROOKE is the ONLY one who accepted luke's proposal :P (5x05 anyone ? :P)
- Because Brooke was willing to give up everything for luke (she told this to victoria), and that was one of the few times she talked about love, coz luke was the one she had truly loved and cared for (S 5)
- Because luke said I LOVE YOU to brooke, while he said I HATE YOU to peyton, and then told Peyton I Don't Hate you.He never told peyton "I LOVE YOU" and for the sake of true love, I hope he doesnt (S 5)
BL has to be end game. It wud just kill me if LP end together.If LP is end game, OTH wud never be the same for me, and I would probably not rewatch most of the seasons/episodes coz knowing that he's gonna end up with a person like Peyton, makes me sick to my stomach.

Brucas!! It's been seen time and time again that Peyton and Luke can be much happier with other people, i.e., Jake and Brooke. Peyton was even happier with Pete from Fall Out Boy, a guy whom she didn't know too well, then she is with Lucas. They don't have the on-screen chemistry as lovers, and are much better off as friends.
Season Three was by far my favorite season thus far. The chemistry for Brucas is immense, and while many say that Leyton has an emotional connection, I think they work better as friends. Throughout season three, Lucas has done things for Brooke that he has never done for Peyton: Like write letters, give embarrassing speeches in the rain, refuse to be non-exclusive, forgiving her for sleeping with Kellar, and there are so many more. Yeah, Lucas always ends up saving Peyton, but that has more to do with their friendship than their relationship as lovers. Lucas proposed Peyton and said no, and to me, that should have ended the relationship. She was willing to live in Savannah for Jake but not live in Tree Hill for Lucas? I don't think it's fair to continue forcing fans to like Leyton. Brucas was more natural on-screen and as Lucas said, Brooke is the girl for him.

Well first of all, i'm a Naley fan. I think they are THE epic couple of oth.
But someone definetly screwed up somewhere with this whole "love-triangle" thing. It was obviously meant to be him and Peyton from the start, but then he started dating Sophia in real life, so they decided to change it and make Brucas seem like an "epic" couple. But then they split up, so they had to switch it all back to Peyton again.
Basically, thats what happens when actors decide to have their own thing off-screen, and the writers have to write it into the show. so now cos they thought both couples were gonna be the main one at some point and wrote it that way, the fans are now divided. Anyone seeing the moral of this story here?
Long story short (too late but still), Naley forever.
The Leyton/Brucas love triangle is always gonna be there now so i'm just sticking with the couple that actually are "epic"

The problem with Peyton is that she ALWAYS goes for Luke after he's with someone. I remember luke telling her "Do you have, like an alarm in your head that goes off everytime im happy with someone else?" (he is obviously referring to lindsay as well as brooke otherwise he wud'nt have said everytime).
Notice in the arguement which LP had in 5 x 05.(im takin only parts of the arguement)
Lucas : You're the one I want next to me when my dreams come true, you're the one I want next to me when they don't.
Peyton : Whitey Believes in you and Nathan needs you. If I ask you to walk away, you're gonna get up one day and resent me, the same way I WOULD feel if you asked me to walk away from my dream. (i think i got it right)
Peyton : If you can't think our love can make it one year, I don't see how we can be talking about forever right now (She could have easily put it in a much better and non offensive way)
Going to the whole Brooke-Peyton thing.
In episode 15- She almost chased Chase away after she stole Luke from Brooke again.
When Ian had them both tied up, she said "I wish he kills you first". Despite what brooke said about her mom. Another instance.
Episode 4 x 01, Brooke comes to see Luke at the end, Peyton passes some ridiculous comments that I don't remember.
I just can't stand Peyton and as years have gone by Brooke has become a better person while Peyton ....well I don't want to say anything more about peyton. I just hope that BL get together coz I have never loved a couple more. Ryan/Marissa were a favourite till the end of season 3. Then the OC ended for me and was really upsetting. I just hope the couple I support in OTH gets together. BL :)
Posted by: adventure86 | July 7, 2008 11:13 AM
ahhh, what a question. i strongly believe leyton need to give it up. as soon as i saw the first episode peyton became my favourite character, and i was aiming for her to get with luke, a guy who saw into her soul, the connection between them was undeniable, its deep and strong, they have so much in common. but i quickly turned off leyton as a couple, in my opinion they are a beautiful idea but a lacking reality, they have too much in common and are better off as friends. i think peyton needs someone to make her stronger and beleive in herself and lucas needs someone to balance him out, in the end my support of broody couples doesn't last long (like ryan and marissa)a broody person needs a non broody person, or atleats on tv it needs to be that way.
if leyton had been better developed earlier on then perhaps i would still support them, but other than that connection (which is not love, and is just as suited if not more so to friendship not as lovers) i just don't see two people IN love with each other, i never really saw them fall in love, i saw a boy who had a crush on a girl he didn't know, and a girl who was intrigued with the world lucas offered her and a stable shoulder to lean on, they understand each other but that doesnt mean they belong to each other, in season one i dont think they got a chance to expand their feelings into real IN LOVE love, and over the next couple of seasons their relationship strengthened as a friendship and the show showed how they can both fall head over heels in love with other people, strong loves they both unsuccessfully fought for, yet leyton never fought for each other, they always walk away too easily, willing to give up on what they have or what they could have, their season 4 relationship reeked of settlement, and by that point their romantic chemistry was not even half of the potential they showed originally, and i couldn't help but compare it to their other relationships and judge leyton as lacking. dont get me started on season 5, this season just proved to me even more why they don't belong together (as much as its said leyton are soulmates, i have not felt it or seen real emotional proof that its any more than an idea) and i think lucas needs to have some time alone to realise what he really wants before jumping into another relationship, especially one as serious as marriage. for me leyton is getting tiring and boring, do i believe they could get back together and be happy? yes i do, i think the writers could pull that off, but if they do it they need to have more build up on both sides of the relationship to pull it off successfully, and happiness can be easily written into a show, and if it does happen i for one won't buy it, i'll watch it but all i will see is two actors acting in love, two characters who think they should be together instead of two characters who belong together and are in love. gawd, if leyton do get back together let it please be so they can get it out of their systems and realise for themselves that it is just a beautiful idea and nothing more, that the love lucas wrote about in his book is in fact more that what they shared or share, so they can move on and truely be happy and in love without it looking like simple acting.
Thats just how i feel, in the end each fan has their own opinion with just as strong reasoning, it all comes down to the fact when a fan watches a couple either they feel their love or they don't, and no matter what happens or what logical rational arguement a fan hears they will continue to ship their couple because they feel the love. so some will fight for leyton while others won't, but its not us who decides (sadly) it depends on where Mark and co feel the love.

I started to watch this show when I was 20 years old and I fall in love brucas story.. brucas teach me love and faith.. and many many thinks....I am so thankfull sophia and chad for their chemistry...
Posted by: blaze | July 7, 2008 6:35 AM
First of all, I'm definitely pulling for Lucas and Peyton. Anyone who says that Lucas and Brooke should be together are out of their minds. How many times do you want them to go back and forth??? I know that Lucas and Peyton have broken up a couple of times, but keep in mind, they are still growing up and sometimes people make poor decisions, i.e. Lucas over reacting when Peyton said she wanted to wait. Relationships are not easy, but hopefully you learn from your mistakes, and if given antoher chance you make things right. For Mark to end the show with Brucas together would make the show pointless and ridiculous. As far as the people who would even mention Jake... what are you thinking??? That was never ment to be and you know it. In the end, it's up to Mark. Hopefully he's not too driven on drama, and retains some substance in this storyline. At any rate, I hope this back and forth crap ends soon. Even I'm getting tired of this.

why is leyton even being considered as the ultimate oth couple, brucas and jeyton shouldn't be considered either
everyone that watches the show knows that naley is the ultimate couple and is the only for sure endgame, so all the leyton and brucas and jeyton fans need to just grow up and stop fighting i mean seriously there is a 50/50 shot for both leyton and brucas you will find out soon enough, no need to fight about it. Naley is and always will be the ultimate oth couple!
Posted by: Kathryn | July 6, 2008 4:57 PM
I just had an idea I think you guys might like. You should do a poll, for fighting words. And see witch side people agree with. I always want to know what side the public leans toward but when there are SO many comments it is hard to keep track.
Posted by: Amanda | July 6, 2008 1:16 PM
Honestly, I think Leyton is boring. I hate seeing them together! The all TLA thing is really really really boring! If they end up together, I don't think I will even watch season 6! What I like about Brucas, is that all of there scenes are great ! You feel that they are happy together, but Peyton is always crying..her only interesting relationship was with Jake. They had a lot of chemistry, and so do Brucas ! With the LP relationship, you don't feel that they will stay together forever and be happy ! Peyton said NO ,and now that Lucas finally is over her she's like: "Oh...looks like I made a mistake!"Just like she did in the first season when Lucas was with Brooke! And even Lucas said that every time he's happy with a girl (Brooke or Lindsey) she had to come between them! She destroys all his relationships and when she finally has him, she refuses to marry him! She needs to let him go. LP really makes me sick! I'm so tired of it! I really like what Mark Schwahn (how di you spell it ?)wrote in the other seasons ,but now it's really boring!! It's just like he's the one who's holding on to Leyton relationship and he can't see that the the most OTH fans really hate this on-off-on-off relationship between them! They are only happy together when they cheat! SO PLEASE MARK !! Stop the boring Leyton story!!And let her meet someone new and let Bl be together again! Because ,people that are ment to be together always find their way in the end !! And LP=TLA=>Teenage Love Affair !!!

I know this is supposed to be about L/P but people are using the term "ultimate OTH couple" and they have L/P and B/L in the same sentence when seriously people, Keith and Karen are better suited than those two couples as the "ultimate OTH couple". The REAL ultimate OTH couple is obviously Nathan and Haley. So it's much appreciated if people wouldn't forget that. L/P maybe the first "meant to be" couple but the two have strayed too far from each other to be the ULTIMATE couple. I think they deserve each other and everything but they are NOT the ultimate couple.
Posted by: Mel | July 6, 2008 12:55 PM
I'm from Poland, and Poland love Brucas. Brucas was/is true love, BL always will.
LP is no chemistry. LP is so boring. LL is even better than LP.
Why Brucas:

Thanks! BL always!
Posted by: Polish Girl | July 6, 2008 11:54 AM
As a Brucas fan, let me just clarify something for some people-
Do I think that LP are liars and cheaters? Yes, watch the show- they lie and cheat and hurt those around them. So the question now is why would BLers want L to be with B? Well, I can't speak for everyone but I can tell you what I think and the impression I've gotten from many others-
Lucas doesn't deserve Brooke. She deserves so much more than him. That's probably the only reason I'd want LP to be together- so they could be miserable together. However, why I do ship BL is because when L is with B, he ceases to do Mr.-I-have-a-fascination-with-death and he's actually happy and the two of them together don't betray and lie to those that care about them. But more importantly, Brooke is happy with him. That's why I want BL together, because it's what I think B wants. Truthfully, I could care less about L, almost as little as I care about P, but if L is what B wants, then I'm all for it.
I know this isn't what the debate should be about but I was getting tired of this being brought up.
Also, saying that LP should be together because Chad and Sophia shouldn't have to work together is the weakest argument ever.
Posted by: Kajal | July 6, 2008 3:21 AM
ok, forget about lucas, brooke, peyton, and everyone else on the show... think about it for a minute.... i know we all want lucas with peyton or brooke or whomever, but remember, Mark, you know, the writer/creator... we all just need to put our faith in him. Afterall, he's kept us interested this long, and i believe he will continue doing a good job keeping us interested in the future. Not one minute of the show has been bad, so no matter who ends up with who, we all know it's gonna be good!!
Posted by: Nikki | July 5, 2008 9:22 PM
Whenever this debate pops up, LP fans describe Leyton as 'epic' over and over, as if thats the best arguement they can give. 'Epic' isn't the word to use -- 'over-played' or 'drawn-out-to the point of madness' is more like it.
I ship Brucas immensely (I own quite a few purple monkeys ;) ), but I did try very hard to like Leyton, or see some sort of connection - and I am not just saying that. After watching 5 seasons, I would say Lucas and Peyton didn't bring out the worst in each other, but they certainly don't bring out the best either. Peyton doesn't seem to be interested when Lucas is single, it's only when he's with someone else that she 'realises' she is 'oh-so-helplessly-in-love' with him, and the relationship is therefore based on cheating and lying -- not exactly a solid base for a great relationship. I cant see the 'instant connection' and love at first sight - Peyton just wanted the sex if i remember correctly.
Then there comes the 'Leyton need each other and complete each other' quote that i see way to often for comfort. Actually, wasn't there the scene at Debs house on the balcony, in which Peyton named a load of reason why she didn't need him? Thought so.
Leyton have been thrown on us since the beginning, and it just shows that even with the scripts writing Leyton in for gawd knows how long, they are hopeless enough to have over half the OTH community not going for Leyton. What does this show?
Lp have a sort of love, but its a sibling love, like twins. They both brood, so they can brood together, but in the end, would you want a relationship that depressing? Hell, I wouldn't be able to even watch Chilarie scenes anymore. And its quite a selfish love, which simply starts on the wrong sort of ground.
Jeyton just had the element of surprise when they first hinted to it, then seemed so natural, plus we all loved to hate Nikki, so it was the little perfect family of Jake/Peyton/Jenny against NikkiCumSatan uniting us the Jeyton.
In answer to the actual question, they really need to give it up. Is Leyton the ultimate couple? No, Brucas Naley Jeyton all the way.
P.S. Naley are the bliddy backbone of One Tree HIll ships - they keep us sane. They are everywhere, but we can never gorw tired of them.
<33 :)

This whole topic is really irritating! All you guys argue over is how long it has taken and blah blah blah. If it only took a season for people to hook up and stay perfectly happy the show would SUCK and there would only be two seasons. Brooke is so overrated and all of her facial twitches drive me INSANE! I hate to watch her on screen with Lucas because it always feels so fake. What Peyton and Lucas has feels genuine. So stop using the "tired story line" story as an excuse. If new characters came and went all the time I wouldn't want to watch it anymore! Lucas and Peyton should be together end of story.
Posted by: Ashley | July 5, 2008 5:56 PM
lucas and peyton need to end up together.. thats how its supposed to be.
he needs to be on the plane with her! they need to get married in vegas!
cant wait til 9/1!!!
Posted by: tiffany | July 5, 2008 5:36 PM
I totally thrive on Lucas and Peyton. I understand all the "brucas" fans but come on...after all that Leyton has been through the last season...It would be totally screwed up of a best friend aka Brook if she decides to go back out with Lucas.....I understand the whole cheating thing...but thats water under a bridge... Brook and Lucas realize that their love is a caring love..not a romantic love. Lucas writing a book to Peyton signifies his love, proposing signifies his love. He is just stubborn.... HOWEVER>>>>>>Then again life goes on....and it is more realistic if they end up separate ways...but who cares about realism this is a TV show...SO MAKE THEM FALL IN LOVE FOREVER!!!!!!!! True Love Always <3

How about BL/LL FANS GIVE UP!

Ok obviously u all have dofferent opinions but come on face the fact LEYTON are and always will be two star crossed lovers! i mean if they are destined to be with each other they will all realationships have bumps and bruises but does that make us give up? NO! so plz why dont you guys GET OVER this brucus buisness and face the facts brucus where together in a FEW parts of OTH but the most romantic love scenes were of LEYTON! FOR GOD SAKES RE-watch ending (almost) of season 4! DESTINY!!!!!
I repeat Strongly and Proudly! LEYTON LEYTON LEYTON LEYTON ALL THE DAMN WAY!<3<3

Posted by: jenny | July 5, 2008 12:28 PM
i think Lucas needs to choose someone soooon.
someone he's going to be together with til the end of the show.
someone he will be happy with and have up and downs.
AND I SO HOPE THAT SOMEONE IS PEYTON SAWYER.
i mean they are meant to be. yeah that sounds lame, but that the way it is.
i hate the fact that so many brucas fans hat peyton, because she was a "backstabbing friend".
i think Brooke was the one who was a kinda bad friend to Peyton. Because as a friend you could definitely tell that there was something going on between lucas and peyton, i don't know i hated that triangle from the beginning.
i mean 2 best friends and one guy can't have a happy ending. But somehow they made it work, so bringing brucas back would be the worst that could happen.
i'm sure that won't happen, since Brooke is now the president of the Leyton - TLA fan club!
to come back to the start. i just think this thing: lucas and all his women and oooh who will he choose - is becoming old and boring and frustrating!
So please (Mark) finish what you started since the first second of OTH. Let Leyton finally be happy together!
LP is OTH's Ultimate Couple! ♥
Posted by: Hang | July 5, 2008 6:33 AM
I'm neither Brucas or Leyton fan. But what I know for sure that we can't always get what we want so I just hope the ending[I'm talking about ultimatum] of One Tree Hill they will make 2 different ending one with Brucas and another with Leyton. So we all can call it a day already. I don't know how they gonna do it but hell their tv show right, to many crap storyline happen already.
- Peace :D
Posted by: bella | July 5, 2008 5:28 AM
LP are DEFINITELY the ultimate OTH couple. Everyone knows it, even if they don't want to admit it. Lucas and Peyton are soulmates. They are meant to be together, and they will be. It's as simple as that. All of One Tree Hill (which I've stuck with from DAY ONE) has led to the reunion of these two.
Posted by: Tina | July 4, 2008 11:12 PM
They need to give it up. I could go on and on about why they shouldn't be together. But you have enough of that..
So I'll just say this.. If they ever stand a chance of me personally understanding them they'd need to show it.
"How about in how you show it?"
I don't need every person, dead alive and strange, in TH telling me that they are meant to be together. I need Lucas and Peyton to act like it. At the same time. I need them to not be selfish hogs while they're together. I need build up. I need realism.
And those are all things that I'm never gonna get when it comes to them. They have proven time and time again that it's about lust and intrigue and following other peoples wishes.. but it's never about both of them wanting to be together at the same time. NEVER.
Lucas chose Peyton in S1 -yes. Without knowing her. And the minute he did, she walked away (for the 4th time in 5 episodes or so). In S2, he chose Brooke. No one told him to. She didn't show any sign of feelings for him. He just wanted to be with her. HIS CHOICE. In S3 (after a whole summer alone with Peyton) He fought for Brooke. He wanted Brooke. And no one told him to. In S4- he still fought for Brooke and wanted her until Brooke pushed him to Peyton. He only went once Skills and Brooke both sent him to her. In S5, he loved and then pined for Lindsey. And focused on Brooke when Lindsey left. He ignored everyone pushing him to Peyton. So see.. he's never actually chosen Peyton while he knew her. He may choose Peyton to go to Vegas but IMO- she's the only one that would be desparate enough to say yes to that crazy phone call anyway. Obviously Lucas isn't thinking clearly. And so now he's just decided to give in and finally listen to all of TH who are telling him to be with Peyton.
Oh and Peyton had to be told by Jake that she loved Lucas. He had to push her towards him.
I personally believe that you can't really choose love. You can't look for it. It finds you. And I'm sure that destiny has already chosen Lucas's true love. And her name isn't Peyton. :)
PS- you girls rock.
Posted by: Corey | July 4, 2008 7:50 PM
I'am sorry about my english, but it's not my first language. I don't think they need to give up. Because they have a great, amazing and beautiful story. And it's always gonna be about Lucas and Peyton. They need to each other. They extract what's best in another. When they're separates it's seems if there is something incomplete. Mark showed for us a such beautiful story about two lost soulmates, that found in each other their ways. I hope now they will happy and together! Leyton is TRUE LOVE ALWAYS! ;)
Posted by: Karen | July 4, 2008 3:57 PM
Lucas is just this superman wannabe who rescues her because he's so chivalrous (gag me now) And I think Lucas' feelings for Brooke are far more sincere than when it comes to his feelings for Peyton. Honestly, s5 was so full of Leyton crap that it's tragic and not even amusing anymore. Not communicating and still hoping to be meant to be? Fighting over a proposal and refusing to work things out? Coming back for another repeat-scene of 'the agonizing betrayal kiss'? (my P. Sawyer is an idiot and I hate Mark for doing that to her.) Why is it so hard for the whole darn Tree Hill to see that Leyton IS THE HIGH SCHOOL ROMANCE that is just a one-time fling. They keep implying it's Brucas that is just "about the sex" and just a silly crush and Peyton is Lucas' forever...but hello??!! All those prediction notes of Laley refers to Peyton as this juvenile crush of Lucas's "Make out with Peyton Sawyer." "Talk to Peyton Sawyer." Oh wtf...this hurts like hell when you process how creepy and baseless Lucas' infatuation is. It never developed into a real romance. They just sneaked around behind Nathan, then behind Brooke. Now with Lindsey (reluctant, oh-so-romantic Lucas playing hard-to-get but we all know he lands back to the same mistake that is Peyton) I just finished s5 and gosh darn it! The fictional book for Peyton is a lie. The real thing is the love letters to Brooke. The prediction note "A second chance with Brooke" is what a romance is supposed to feel and be like. And the whole comet-scientist thing? A little played-out, Luke, keep trying. Maybe you should write about the Scotts (Naley and Jamie) than waste time on repeating your forced, predictable love-love for a girl who you never saw more than just a female counterpart, an equal when it comes to misery business. Leyton...could have been acceptable if developed. Like Naley. Brucas. Jeyton. But no...it was a settlement that stemmed from Chopia divorce and Brian G's sayonara. So...REALLY, MARK? LP AGAIN???!! I get it with the whole "Your Art Matters" stuff and the "I want all the same things" stuff. But Mark could've gone further than that as the seasons proceeded and not let Leyton hang and kept stored somewhere and when it's time to pop out...BAM!! BAM!! BAM!! True Love Always...please nominate Lucas Scott's book "An unkindness of ravens" because he puts puke in PUCAS (oopps...my best friend won't like me saying that..hehehe) Yes, I'm officially bashing Leyton for reasons that they can't stop being immature around each other. Improve this couple and I might just accept it.
Posted by: eka-chan | July 4, 2008 2:01 PM
LEYTON is one landslide of rejection, humiliation and selfishness after another. I explained to my best friend (although I haven't fully convinced her) that Peyton went out of her way to make Lucas regret his decision to marry Lindsey ("if you want to break my heart, you don't have to propose to Lindsey to do it") and making it all about her. Lucas constructed this 'perfect love' with him and Peyton in a fictional book, blurring everyone's views and confusing Peyton. God, when there's a book written as an instructional manual to be with one guy, that would make anybody dizzy! Peyton felt like she had to live to the expectations written on the pages. The Molly girl is the epitome of LP fans who think what Lucas and Peyton have is just so worth it. I get that but Lucas' mistake is making their relationship into such a pedestal. It's not. Real relationships aren't like that.
My biggest problem with Leyton is they don't know when is the right time to fight for each other and when is the right to give up and compromise.

I also think it will be Leyton because of what happened between Chad Michael Murray and Sophia Bush in person
and please bring back Whitey i miss him!!

Posted by: Michaela | July 4, 2008 1:42 PM
To Eva,
Yeah LEYTON=cheating/disater not Lucas and Peyton by themselves. And maybe we think Lucas is a BETTER person with Brooke than he is with Peyton. And from your post it sounds like Leyton is meant to be because they are such horrible people they don't they don't deserve anyone else.

I think that Lucas and Peyton were meant to be together from the begining i feel like Peyton is just a sad sack and just there. she always wanted Lucas and they were there for each other "always saving each other" and in episode 410 Peyton was the reason that Lucas came back. after seeing how things would have been. i really don't mind if it is Brucas because i also loved them together. whatever Mark decides is fine with me . i just wanna see Peyton get something happy in her life. her and Lucas broke my heart in some scenes this season and i want them to be together. i want Brooke to be with chase or somebody but i want Lucas to just pick already!! Leyton will always be there ! Lucas can deny it and her but thats the truth!
Posted by: Michaela | July 4, 2008 1:36 PM
Die Leyton die. The worst couple in the history of TV. Absolutely horrible. The writers should win an Emmy for Best Monster. They have no chemistry, no principles and nothing but cheese when they're together.

basically i dont like lucas and peyton. i loveeee brucas. and peyton is being a whiney little girl. its annoying. ppl have forgotten that peyton is the one that ruined brucas. then all of a sudden its lucas and peyton that are meant to be together. like wth. it wasnt like that till peyton decided to be a backstabbing friend and come between it. and she did it before that too.
Posted by: tatiana | July 4, 2008 10:27 AM
Brucas is meant to be. Leyton is just way too boring and too complicated. They will never work out. And besides peyton is just pothetically boring and always wants everyone to feel bad for her. She needs to grow up!
BRUCAS ALL THE WAY!!!!
Posted by: maria | July 4, 2008 10:10 AM
Another thing I would like to add to all the dear Brucas fans out there...
If what Leyton has is based on cheating...why do you want the main person involved to be with Brooke? I mean, if she is so selfless herself and all as most of you "claim"
Its the most laughable thing about the triangle. LP cheat but L deserves to be with B.
WTF?
Posted by: Eva | July 4, 2008 9:36 AM
I love how immature BRUCAS fans are to come here and discuss Leyton. LOL
Seriously? Leyton Sucks? Is that the best you got?
Get over yourselves. You only ship them because of CS who will NEVER get back together because they are both HAPPY.
MOVE ON!
Posted by: Eva | July 4, 2008 9:27 AM
Lucas and peyton the ultimate couple? LMAO yeah and im the queen of the world haha they suck .
I really have a problem with this couple as i say all the time here lol .They are acouple which if we are honest are glorified as "true love" which is a joke that whole relationships foundations is based on cheating lies and hurting others I really have a problem when shows try to justify a couples cheating as "oh its cause theyr true love so that makes ok" what? seriously thats a freaking joke and a terrible message to send out to the audience
jackie your my hero haha say it like it is and I share your opinion im so sick of this LP crap and mia is right too they do like the hurting game and peyton makes lucas such a selfish person and I tell you if he chooses peyton to go to las vegas with him then once again watch how selfish the lucas character will become yet again and how everyone else will be pushed to the background and he will forget who he cares about *rolls eyes**
Brucas is the couple Im always gonna ship because for me they are what defines real love and all the moments they have shared prove that fact Brooke is such a selfless character has always put lukes happiness before her own and even peytons too when peyton doesnt give a toss about brookes and before people say peyton does care well hmm I think we can see exampls from season 4 and season 1 which shows peyton only ever thinks of herself and that whole sex tape thing was clearly just a storyline to make brooke look bad and justify peytons actions which didnt work at all as most of the audience knows that was a pathetic attempt just for the writers to try and make brooke look bad and peyton look a saint ***rolls eyes*** didnt work at all
And you something though even though Im a huge brucas fan I can still see the fact he loved lindsay and that she made him happy and if people watched the show they would see he actually said "I do" to her he didnt call the wedding off she did so the fact if LP get together its ridiculous and way inrealistic and hes basically setting for the easy option .For me Lindsay is a great chracter and so is brooke and although im rooting for brucas I wouldnt have a problem with him asking lindsay to go to vegas but if he asks peyton its so stupid and as I say watch for the return of selfish lucas but in another way if he chooses peyton then its 22 episodes to see their relationship crash and burn and I really hope it does Im not gonna sit and watch LP crap when its blatently obviously they dont belong together and never will
Brucas always they belong there relationship has way more of a connection and substance then lp could ever hope to have lol . Gosh I so hope lucas wakes the hell up argh lol
Posted by: Jules | July 4, 2008 6:43 AM
I've always been a Brucas fan, maybe because of their off screen dooms. But Peyton deserves someone who can love her like Lucas can.
Oh, can BRING BACK BARRY CORBIN!!!
Great to see so much support for OTH!
Posted by: Akumos | July 4, 2008 6:31 AM
"It has always been Lucas and Peyton."
Straight from Brooke herself!
I cant imagine it ending any other way than LP, and no other ending would fit.
Mark is just dragging this whole saga out to PANDER to fans who cant let go of a ship that has long since sailed.
It started with LP and thats how it'll always end up no matter who Mark puts either of them with.
"Its always gonna be there, you and me."
"Brookes great, but shes not you."
"Its you. When all my dreams come true the one I want next to me, its you."
"Every instinct to the contrary had simply been a denial of the following truth: I was now, I would always be in love with Peyton Sawyer."
"Thats me inside your head."
"You know I love you right? No matter what happens to either one of us, you will always be in my heart."
"I love being that guy for you."
Neec I go on? :)

I have to say that I don't agree or disagree with any of the views out there. I watched season one through five and I have to say that I have yet to see enough evidence that Peyton and Lucas are the best couple. I have seen why they could be good together but I haven't seen enough of them being together to be a judge of that. There was to much emphasis on the loving from afar or them being with other people. Maybe season six can show me why they are meant to be really, show me how they bring out the best in each other and maybe I can make up my mind. I compared them to Naley and I realized that I don't have much to go on compared to those two to make a decision so I will remain neutral and wait and see.
Posted by: Lilia | July 3, 2008 11:26 PM
"I was now, and would always be in love with Peyton Sawyer". That phrase makes me cry everytime I watch 5.08, but it sums up Lucas and Peyton better than anything else. He has always been in love with her, and that will never change. They are soulmates, and nothing can change that. They belong together. Even in s5, which had a lot of angst, it was SO OBVIOUS that they were still completely in love, and the actors were amazing in portraying the longing and unspoken emotion that has always existed between Lucas and Peyton. Leyton is the most beautiful, transcendent relationship I have ever seen. Even though they are fictional, they have allowed me to believe in true love, even when things get really difficult in my own life.
Posted by: Karen | July 3, 2008 11:10 PM
LP ARE THE BEST COUPLE, EVER ON TV. They make the rest of us believe in true love. They show that you don't have to be this outgoing, "life of the party" type of person to find true love. Lucas and Peyton are damaged, broken souls, and it's so beautiful to see them find real love in each other. They are soulmates, and they have "saved" each other, and helped heal each other in too many ways to count. Lucas's heart has always been with Peyton, and hers has been with him from "the first moment they locked eyes". People need to realize that these two are true love, and they will end up together. BL was a beautiful relationship, but as Chad himself said, Brooke was a fun relationship for Lucas, but eventually you have to go back to being who you are, and Peyton is that relationship. Lucas and Peyton are destined to be together, and everyone who doesn't think that needs to give up, and accept this. It's just the way it'll be.
Posted by: Susa | July 3, 2008 11:01 PM
Personally I love that Mark decided to seperate them in season 5. I believe he will eventually have them end up together because just like Brooke said in season 1 "people who are meant to be, always find their way in the end". So maybe Mark is showing us that life isn't easy and you can;t just have a perfect relationshp just because you've been through so much with someone and feel you deserve it. With Lucas in season5, Mark was trying to show how intense Leytons feeling actually are for one another. Yes Luke acted up and acted nasty for most of the season but thats just because he got his heart crush when Peyton didnt say yes to his proposal. He Whe n she came back he realized he could never stop loving her and that drove him insane. He wanted to show that he could live w/o Peyton. Everytime he decieds to be with someone else Peyton always gets in the way. Like it happened with booke and then Lindsey. He hates he loves her soo much. They will end up together eventually but they make for good drama so thats why they couldnt be together to soon.
Posted by: Susie | July 3, 2008 9:07 PM
I truely believe that Lucas and Peyton are meant to be together. They are both the tortured artist type, and he answered it at the end of Season 4. Peyton is who he wants standing beside him when all his dreams come true. If there hadn't been any relationship drama, the show would not have gotten off the way it has. AND i don't think Mark wants to stir up Brooke/Peyton drama. Brooke knows how much Peyton loves Lucas...everyone does. Even Skillz was planning on helping her get him back. Brooke and Lucas make amazing friends, but Luke can't keep up with B. Davis. She's one of a kind. I can't wait until September.
Posted by: cortney | July 3, 2008 6:41 PM
I'd kick myself in the ass, walk on red light, kiss my ex boyfriend and even lick the toiletbowl before EVER shipping Leyton. That would be like supporting lying and cheating in a relationship! They make me wanna pull my hair out! The TLA stuff has got to go...
Posted by: NoMoreLeyton | July 3, 2008 5:19 PM
The reason list for LP is long but do you realize that most of them are about Season 1...?
I don't shipper either one of them and I am sick of the TLA Story Line because Mark builds it up so unrealistically...he destroys them, builds up a new, long lasting relationship and then another Moment of Clarity...that's not how life goes...
Luke should have grown up but if he chooses either one of them over Lindsey, he just shows hom immature he is and that he has not changed at all since HS...
Posted by: Polish_girl | July 3, 2008 2:40 PM
The Answer:
leyton needs to give it up.
it´s been five seasons, and no luck.
Lucas and Peyton may try, but it never ends up working. They both have their minds set on this idea of their love, which is only about pain and suffering, which is completely ridiculous. The best times on one tree hill have revolved around brooke and lucas. The reason fans love this show is because these two opposites attract. Peyton and Lucas are much the same person, therefore creating a boring aroma. They bring out the worst in eachother, and the show is going to loose viewers (especially new ones) if they continue like this! give us fans a good time, especially if 6th season is going to be the last year. Give us a show worth remembering by pairing Brooke and Lucas together. He has said more worthy speeches and more i love you´s to brooke than to peyton. Yes, lucas said a lot in his book but that doesnt mean a thing; you know why? because in real life, it was NOTHING like that. All the things in the book, i never felt once when they were together. Chemistry describes brooke with lucas, not peyton with lucas. Leyton is so cheesy, and often times boring. I hate their scenes, and i´m being nice by just saying that. This show was my favorite show, it was my calling. But if it continues with this stupid Leyton vibe, (which was what the whole 5th season was centered around except for the last episodes where we saw some brucas magic), then i refuse to watch it! it´s becoming truly unbearable. Please mark, stop this now. you still have a chance to redeem yourself. Step up, and make us happy; Give us brooke and lucas. MAKE HISTORY!

How is writing "Leyton" multiple times a way of proving they should be together or not? All it proves is that you know how to type "Leyton".

PEYTON AND LUCAS = TRUE LOVE ALWAYS
Posted by: rebecca watts | July 3, 2008 10:49 AM
Ok. First of all, people have to remember that Peyton has always been a very guarded person. She has a hard time "letting people in". She has said it, Lucas has said it, even her brother Derek has said it. From the beginning, Peyton and Lucas have had feelings for each other. I think that Peyton was just afraid of them. Here is this guy that comes along out of no where with whom she feels a strong connection. We saw in the first episodes that she was confused by her feelings.
Two of my biggest problems with all of the BL fans out there saying how horrible Peyton was to Brooke, don't you remember how it all began? Brooke KNEW that Peyton and Lucas had feelings for each other. She dared Peyton to show everyone how she really felt about Luke at that first party...you know, the one where he went to see how the story ended? Brooke brought it all upon herself. She knew these things and went (very full force I might add...naked in his back seat) after Lucas! Sure, Peyton may have been saying that it was ok, but, I'm sorry, I have been in a similar situation before and I still didn't betray my friend!! The second problem is when we found out that Brooke slept with Nathan SECONDS after he and Peyton broke up (again)! How is Brooke a good friend? She's a hypocrite! Ok, I actually love Brooke, but she really had never been a good friend to Peyton, not really until the end of season 4 and all of season 5. What friend uses the pain of losing two mothers as punchlines? Even Rachel was shocked at that one!
The night Peyton and Luke almost got together in the beginning of the 1st season when he said "he wanted it all with her", she freaked because she wanted it too but it scared her. Remember, this is "guarded" Peyton. So, sure, as any guy would, Lucas went on to the "next best thing", Brooke. He thought that Peyton didn't want him, and Peyton was willing to bottle those feelings up so that her "good friend" Brooke could be happy. Sure, she had a couple slips. It's hard to always keep such a connection hidden. BUT, at least they never slept together!
Lucas, too, has always been a little guarded with his true feelings. He is a guy after all and it takes them a little while to figure out what they want. We all know that his feelings never went away for Peyton because he was always there for her when she needed him. He just didn't realize it. He was never there for Brooke in the same way. Yes, he said "I'm the guy for you Brooke Davis" to Brooke on a couple of occasions but I think it's really interesting that he NEVER once said "you're the girl for me".
As far as season 5 went, for me, it was heart wrenching to see the Lucas and Peyton scenes. I still feel that connection there and the chemistry. I know Lucas still loves her, that's why he's acting the way he is. He is trying to punish Peyton for the pain she caused when she said "no" to his proposal. We all know she didn't actually say no, just not now; all of us except for Lucas. He acted very selfish at that moment while Peyton was being very mature about the situation. And Lucas has been acting very immature and selfish for most of season 5. He hasn't been fair to Lindsay, Peyton or himself about his true feelings. Why do you think he wanted to marry Lindsay right away? He thought that if he married her, his feelings for Peyton would go away, but they didn't. Instead they came out in a book. Again, everyone reads between the lines of the 2nd book and sees it (Haley, Lindsay, Peyton), except for Lucas.
As far as they way Peyton treated Lindsay, it's, unfortunately, human behaviour. Especially for someone who is young. She feels threatened. Lindsay is a nice, sweet, beautiful girl who loves Lucas. Of course Peyton would hate her! She never treated Brooke that way when she and Lucas were together because Brooke was her friend. She doesn't know Lindsay from a hole in the wall. But, Peyton does eventually come around and starts to give Lindsay some slack.
Well, I guess I've rambled on long enough! I just believe that, from the beginning, the writers have set up that Lucas and Peyton will be together. If they had of gotten together early on without any problems, drama, or obstacles, what kind of show would it have been? A short lived one, that's what kind!
Posted by: Renee | July 3, 2008 7:45 AM
I really think they should give up! Their storylines are getting boring and a lot of fans are getting sick of their on and off relationship!! I was so happy Lucas had found Lindsay!! That was the perfect way to end things between them!
Posted by: Sofia | July 3, 2008 7:33 AM
Leyton need to give it up.
Yes i agree that in season one leyton was the epic dream couple. From the begining most people thought they were meant to be together. But something got in the way. Its called season 2 and season 3. If Mark Schwann wanted all the fans to love leyton. Then he made a big mistake. Its called season 2 and season 3. Those 2 seasons changed everything. No longer were people saying leyton should be together.Alot of fans were now rooting for brucas. And because their love was so strong in s2&3 fans are still rooting for brucas.
Question- if a couple is really "epic" then shouldn't most of the fanbase love them?
Answer- Leyton is NOT "Epic", naley is the only epic couple on the show.
Question- how does cheating and lying equal "true love always"?
Answer- It Doesn't. Peyton and lucas represent how not to start a relationship. They only hurt the people that they claim to care about.
In my opinion leyton should not get back together. And they most definatly should not be endgame. But because Mark Schwann loves peyton, and because of chad and sophia, we will not get brucas. Instead we will have to settle for Leyton as endgame. Which sucks.
Posted by: Vanessa Manning | July 3, 2008 12:46 AM
also kids..seriously..JAKE IS GONE AND HE IS NOT COMING BACK! SHE CHOSE LUCAS! GET OVER IT!
Posted by: carly | July 2, 2008 10:53 PM
I definitely agree with Mia about how Lucas just really wants someone to have feelings for him..he always has and it isn't cool. also agree with sarah on the fact that..theres obviously something still there if they still have feelings..they need to give it another try to know for sure..
what i really think about leyton is that..im a sucker for people who find there way in the end. i dont mind brucas..and i love that this question somehow got turned pretty much into brucas vs leyton which shouldnt be but i guess it is.
i just think that people think that luke chose to go after brooke second season that makes him want her more but thats cause peyton and him werent really friends in season 2. and she only proposed to jake because brooke had luke and haley had nathan and jenny had just called her mom. but she has always loved lucas. and if you think about it lucas still clearly loves her but obviously loves brooke too.
i just realized..i just cant stand lucas..he jsut wants a girl to want him and doesnt deserve either..but back onto the topic..its suppose to be leyton in the end..it really is..thats how it should be...
dont get me wrong though mark (yes im pretending he's reading this), you end lucas with anyone else..ill be fine with that too because im sure you will find some way to make it work perfectly.
if i answered that badly..i think leyton are the be-all, end-all couple of One Tree Hill. They were set up like that from the beginning, and they have to find their way to each other eventually.

Hey everyone. This is the first time I leave any sort of comment on this website, but I thought it was a perfect time to give my thoughts. Everyone is going to have a different opinion and that is perfectly fine. No need to get nasty. Thats besides the point. My response for this topic is pretty much this... since season one its been IMPOSSIBLE for Lucas and Peyton to be together if it isn't Brook with Lucas its Peyton and her bad luck & tragedys. Honestly, I have been waiting for them to finally be together and stay that way atleast for a longer period of time. Yeah, its been said that they love eachother and they are soul mates but they really havent had the time to enjoy that love. Season 4 it ended with them together and then they end it. But of course at the same time I do like Lucas and Brooke together. I think that Lucas can be good with anyone lol.. I dunno I guess we just have to wait and see what is going to happen and still love the show. I know I will.
We just have to wait and see guys.... :o)

commenting on a previous post, 'broke left lucas and peyton was the next best thing!'
Are you kidding!! brooke left lucas because she knew he was in love with peyton, when she broke up with him she said, you shared a laugh with peyton, you made a mix tape with peyton, you had a conversation with peyton, we go for days without a conversation, it should not be like that luke. Leyton belong together ok!!
don't forget brooke also said the boy I love saved the girl I love and she is the girl he loves and everyone knows it, but I guess I can't blame him for it.
Posted by: Anonymous | July 2, 2008 6:53 PM
question:
Why does Lucas have to end up with either Brooke or Peyton?
Why can't Lucas end up alone or with someone else?
I keep reading comments like Lucas is horrible with Brooke and he is Great with Peyton. Or Leyton sucks and Brucas rocks.
Why is it ALWAYS either or.
Almost every Leyton fan has to get a dig in on Brucas and almost every brucas fan has to get a dig in on Leyton. It is ridiculous.
If I had my wish Peyton would end up with Jake (they are my favorite couple beside naley) and Brooke would end up with Chase or Joe. Lucas would end up with someone else.
To all you Leyton fans, if I couldn't have Jeyton I would be very happy with leyton BUT there is only so long a storyline can go on before I get annoyed with it. If Leyton gets one more try and can't make it work then, they should move on. This storyline is getting REALLY boring. Especially because A LOT of people love Jeyton or Brucas or Lindcas or anyone else that Lucas and Peyton have been with. And A LOT of other people don't mind one or more of those couples. They may not be there favorite but they still like them that proves that OTH should not be based around Leyton. Leyton does not have as strong of a fan base as a couple like Naley. They do not have the fan base that a be-all-end-all couple SHOULD have. And if you are going to string out a storyline this far you kinda need a HUGE fan base, at least in my eyes, because a lot of fans are going to get REALLY mad, if you keep a storyline going too long.
And to all you Brucas fans. Chad and Sophia all ready have to work with each other lets not make it any harder for them. Plus I don't know how they could cross the "more then friends line" because of how GOOD of friends they are.
Posted by: Amanda | July 2, 2008 5:05 PM
First of all, why am I seeing all of these comments about BL in here? I thought this was a discussion about LP. Anywho, I have shipped LP from day one and have never waivered in my faith for them. Not for a second. Mark said it best himself: "From the Pilot, we created a world where Lucas and Peyton are meant to be together." I still believe that has been the intention all along and that they WILL be together in the end. Sure there have been ups and downs and bumps along the way, but the thing that has never changed is their love for one another. You can see it in every single scene of theirs from every single season no matter what anyone else tries to say. These two are the main reason I watch the show and no matter what else I have had to endure, I have always known that they will find their way back. I will end with another quote from the show that I think sums up LP and their incredible story so beautifully: “The love you professed will always be there. The spark of something undeniable, a seed of hope, the truth, for better or for worse, burning fiercely just below the surface.” The embers still remain....
That is all. :)

I think they should give up, its getting tierd. It should be Brooke and Lucas and Peyton and Jake.
Posted by: Gabbi | July 2, 2008 4:00 PM
I just have to comment again because people are being ridiculous. Stop getting on their case because they asked a legit question. I think comments like “this question is stupid and pointless” is just rude and disrespectful to Sara, Mia, and Jackie. Hello People it is called “Fighting Words”, why wouldn’t LP be under this topic. Geeze! It’s a debate and if you don’t like it then just don’t say anything and move on.
Please tell me why LP fans are surprised that Blers are putting their two-cents in. I bet if this topic was about Brucas, we would have a lot of LPers giving their opinions. At the end of the day were all One Tree Hill fans so I think it’s fair for all of us to have opinions on each couple.
I also think it’s ridiculous to have responses like leyton forever & brucas forever. Give real answers in why you think they should end it or get back together. Don’t just say LP sucks and that’s it, I mean it’s pretty funny but it’s still not a reasonable answer. So everybody just get over it and answer the question intelligently and respectfully.
BTW: Leyton needs to end it!
Posted by: Michelle | July 2, 2008 3:18 PM
My feelings about LP have always remained constant. I belive these are two people who truely belong togther. I guess I see things a little differently than most do in this whole mess (triangles). Maybe it is age, maybe it is my flawed past. But....Firstly, Lucas [B]IS[/B] the most to blame in any of the triangle (rectangle, or rectangle + 1 as Brooke put it in S1) scenario.
He was the one in the relationship, meaning, he should have put a stop to anything that happened. Yes, Peyton initiated a kiss in both CCIPC and during the school shooting, however, during a time of distress, emotions are generally high, and it is difficult to fight them. The thing was, as soon as everything was said and done, she regretted it and tried to bury things so that she wouldn't hurt Brooke. In S1, Lucas continued, telling her he "needed" to be with her, even when Peyton said they needed to end things. Lucas may have needed to be with her, but if that was the case, he should have ended things with Brooke, prior to starting up things with Peyton.
And of course, since CW is repeating S5, and my hubby made a good observation this week, when he said, "Lucas could have avoided everyone's heartache if he would have just been honest with Lindsey about his feelings." Bear in mind that my hubby has of late been ticking me off telling me that it really was Brooke that he called, because they always had a connection. Of course, now that he is rewatching S5 he says that he always thought LP were meant to be. Aarg...can he make up his mind? But he likes to play devil's advocate that way.
But anywho...the bottom line is I really think it comes down to both Peyton and Lucas' childhoods as to why they are the way they are. Lucas is the child of a single mother, who although I think she didn't mean to, inadvertantly caused some of the problems with Dan herself. She refused to allow him to get joint custody of Lucas, which in Dan's mind meant "Game on". Then any love Dan had for Lucas became buried in an attempt to use him as a tool to hurt Karen. Also, as the series went along, I saw some parental alienation from Karen regarding Dan. I don't care what you feel about your ex, you never voice it to your child, no matter what age the child is. I think Lucas felt a great deal of anger and resentment at the fact that he never had the childhood he wanted and really, deserved. Lucas always wanted Dan's approval and love, as any kid wants. He unfortunately was made to feel as though he was the "inferior" son, while Nathan was the "chosen" son. He did have a good relationship with Keith, the father role model he needed, but then when he lost him, I think that took a part of Lucas with his death.
Peyton...well, where do we start with her. Lied to about who she was all her life. Two dead moms (one of which she had only recently gotten the opportunity to really know). A psycho stalker. An absentee father. Shot in the library, by the former friend of the man she loved. Her first real relationship with a Class A jerk (Nathan). And later, a best friend that used her tragedy and made it into jokes to get even for her "stealing" her man.
The bottom line is these are two very fractured people. Both of these people desperately desire family. I honestly think that is what drew Peyton to Jake. Not necessarily that she was in love with Jake (as her saying "I love you Lucas" in her sleep proves), but she was in love with the idea of being in a family. Lucas is the same way. I think that is why he jumps so freely into relationships. I honestly think Lucas is desperately afraid of being alone. He seriously loved Peyton, but when he couldn't have her, he went with other relationships to satisfy that desire of being with someone. Lindsey really played into that well. Lindsey really loved Lucas, and she offered him that family he wanted (and he loved her father too, replacing the father role-model he no longer had).
I get upset when I hear people talk about how Peyton has given up a chunk of herself while "pining" for Lucas. Because people forget how connected these two people really are. How many very difficult life experiences has Lucas been there for her? Her dad potentially being dead. Ellie. Psycho Derek. And...he carried her bleeding out of the school. This isn't a traditional relationship. The problems they both have faced are not normal.
Really, I don't see a need for major redemption. Peyton "gets" Lucas. She understands the pain he is feeling. It doesn't mean that it hurts any less, but she really gets it. I don't need redemption. Peyton doesn't. The thing is, she has never been insecure in Lucas' love. Lucas' other girlfriends have been insecure, because Lucas always gave them reason to doubt. But, when Lucas was with Peyton, it was obvious that he gave himself in whole to her. That will happen again. It really will. I can't wait, because honestly, Lucas completes Peyton. He brings out things in her that show her to be a stronger person. Peyton completes Lucas. He is a better person with her.
I know I rambled, but...I just can't wait to see S6...to see where Lucas and Peyton's relationship goes. I think our time really has come.

Leyton.. oh my god! Get over them already! It's clearly shown in season 5 how they DO NOT fit together, AT ALL, they are not meant to be.. their love ISN'T true!
Their storyline is boring, they just.. they are better as friends!
I tell you guys, it's not good for them to keep doing this. They only hurt each other.. they really don't know what to do with the love when they're together.
I mean, if it was true love, Lucas would have never gave up on her! Just because she 'didn't say YES'. He should have understood, and gave it a little more time.
But when you look at Brucas, you can just see how much they really loved/love each other! Sure, they were both getting hurt many times, but face it that it was ALWAYS Peyton's fault! If it wasn't for her, i am sure of that they would still today be together, prob. even married. It's just that Peyton makes them believe that they are not good together. But he is always there for her, she is always there for him.
Now is that love or what?
One more thing.. season 5 was, to be honest, pretty much just boring. I even have some friends that have stopped watching the show, or just got sick of season 5 because of this worn out Leyton thing!
I want my 'old' OTH back! The interesting, fun, and to be honest even more mature show. Come on Mark, dont do the Leyton thing! It's to worn out man!

I SUPPORT LEYTON.
True Love Always, Lucas and Peyton.
'I was and will always be in love with Peyton Sawyer'...he said that to the whole wide world!! what other proof do you guys need?!
Even Brooke said to Peyton in season 5 when Peyton told her that she had come back for Lucas...brooke said something like 'Ofcourse I know, you had your Lucas stealing face on at the airport'.[i don't remember the exact wordings]
Peyton: 'What face is that?"
Brooke:'The only one you've got!'
then Brooke also said to Lucas when he came over to her place..'You still love her,don't you?'
and he didn't deny it!!
Lucas and PEyton are meant to be togther.there's always this one certain person in your life that you will ALWAYS have feelings for. and it's true!!that's the case with Leyton. OTH will not be One Tree Hill without Lucas and Peyton!

lucas and peyton are destined from the beginning to be best friends. :)

Lucas and Peyton are meant to be TOGETHER, they have always been, every single sign in OTH led us to believe in their story and therefore in their reunion, because "It is always been Lucas and Peyton" and if the show wont end up this way, it would lose its credibility. It would mean that the whole story was fake and misleading, which I believe it can't be...if they created such a beautiful story they surely have the possibility to give it the right conclusion, which means Lucas and Peyton finally together...for good.

Leyton are meant to be and it has always been that way...as brooke said "you're lucas and peyton..you're meant to be"...lucas and peyton will always love each other and whats the point of having another ROADBLOCK like brroke and lindsey to delay the inevitable? luke and peyton=TLA
Posted by: Sarah | July 2, 2008 2:02 PM
ok ppl theres just one conversation to SHOW you guys that its brucas and not PUCAS (aka leyton)
that conversation in the library after she kissed him yet again WHILE he was dating brooke.
"There's this other girl...you might know her, her names Brooke Davis and I'm completly in love with her."
and p.s for you ppl who dnt know
he DIDNT leave brooke for peyton
brooke left him so peyton was the next best thing or in this case the only other option cause lucas cant be single as proof by season 5 in which he had a choice between lindsay and peyton and he chose lindsay funny how he never PICKS peyton only time he dated her was wen he had no one else
wen he has a choice he NEVER picked peyton
s2= picked brooke
s3= brooke
s4= brooke left him there was no one else but peyton
s5= lindsay or peyton= lindsay
ya how bout you guys think about that

I love Lucas and Peyton. They are the couple that make you believe in true and undeniable love. Well they do for me.
Season 1 had absolutely undeniable chemistry, attraction and a connection. But then Lucas and Brooke came along, i truly believe that she was a distraction for Lucas. After all they were young at that point and i think the way Lucas and Peyton felt for eachother wasn't normal high school love and this made them scared.
The whole reason Brooke was introduced to Lucas was to put an obstacle in LP's path, just my oppinion. I mean, really, what is a TV show without drama?
Season 2 was a tricky one, but i think that both Peyton and Lucas realised they'd messed up and decided to distance themselves. But the few conversations they did had i could just see the connection back again and the chemistry.
Season 3 showed LP's connection resurfacing and what showed me totally that their feelings for eachother never left was when Lucas said, 'It's always going to be there isn't it? You and me'
That just showed me that somehow they would find their way back to eachother.
However in season 3 i do believe Brooke and Lucas fell in love, they did love each other. But they had a high school love.
Season 4 brought Lucas and Peyton's relationship to full circle. As Brooke said, 'People who are meant to be together find their way in the end' and after four seasons LP found their way. The similarities between season 4 and season 1 were subtle and it showed to me what they'd learnt and how, throughout it all, they couldn't shake how they felt about each other.
Season 5 wasn't all about Lucas and Peyton. I do remember seeing quite a lot of Lucas and Lindsey scenes (who i believe was another obstacle) and Brooke and Lucas scenes as well as Brooke helping Angie and Nathan and Haley's problems. Episode 505, for me, showed exactly what Lucas and Peyton's love was. He wants her when his dreams come true and when they don't, it doesn't matter either way because as long as she's there nothing else matters. If that doesn't scream 'meant to be' then, really, what else does?
I've rambled a lot, and haven't really got my point across. What i'm trying to say is that LP have a connection i haven't seen on TV before. That is why they will always be my ultimate TV couple because something just draws me to them.
Not everyone can see their love and i respect that. If i wasn't a shipper looking for the little signs then it would probably be hard to see. The bottom line is, though, that it's always there between them and it always will be and i think they should have another shot together.
I have tons more to say because there's a lot more that just shows they are 'meant to be' in my eyes, but i've already rambled quite enough. :P
Lucas and Peyton = True Love Always <3

I used to be a Brucas fan, because they were better together and the chemistry between Peyton and Lucas is not so good. But now I want them to be together, beacause Brooke deserves someone better than Lucas :-P Just get up together finally, Peyton is suffering so much, and Lucas is stupid if he doesn't see, that he is still in love with her. The "Brooke-Lucas-Peyton" love triangle was interesting, the "Peyton-Lucas-Lindsey" love triangle - not so much. It's a little boring already.
Greetings from Slovenia :)

Lucas and Peyton belong together. Sorry, but Brooke has said it so many times herself. Lets quote, shall we?
-"Its always been Lucas and Peyton."
-"I've been the Lindsey between Lucas and Peyton and its not a good place."
-"You've got your Lucas stealing face on. Its the only one you've got."
-"We go days without having a meaningful conversation Lucas. Where were you when I called you? Having a laugh with Peyton. Making a mix with Peyton. And I used to miss you so much when that happened. But I guess because of it, I stopped missing you."
Brooke and Lucas had something special, but the whole "Opposites attracts" thing wears off in the end, you always return to who you really are. And in the beginning, Lucas wanted Peyton, he chose Peyton. He has never once pulled away when she has kissed him. Sorry, but theres only one girl he has ever stayed faithful to and its Peyton. Oh, and heres the thing; One Tree Hill IS NOT Dawsons Creek so stop living in the past. Brooke has made it clear she doesn't have feelings for Lucas, whilst Peyton spent the whole fifth season pining over him.
Lucas and Peyton - TLA. No purple monkey or red door has a freakin chance. Leyton ftw!

I don't think its a fair thing for Brooke, Lucas fans to expect Chad and Sophia to put away their past so they can have the outcome they want.
Would you want to have to go to work every day and pretend to still be in love with your ex, kiss them, hold them etc...?
Even if it is just acting it would still be hard. I imagine for a while there it was probably hard enough for both of them to just see each other every day.

i think lucas and peyton should be together beacouse Mark made them fall in love in season 1. They were together in season four that was only one season ago what changed? well besides lucas loving Lindsey that is.It might just be me but I notice the way he looks at peyton.One tree hill would never be the same if they arnt together.

A description of OTH from Yahoo! TV:
"Drama about estranged half-brothers who play basketball and eventually fall for the same woman. Nathan is the son of privilege and star of Tree Hill, North Carolina's local high school team, with a beautiful and sensitive cheerleader girlfriend, Peyton, while Lucas is the son of a single, working mother, Karen, and an underground basketball figure around town. When a bizarre set of circumstances puts Lucas on the same team as Nathan and reveals their familial relationship, they find themselves competing in the game as well as rivals for Peyton's affections. Their shared father, Dan, must now confront his own failed basketball dreams and the relationships he has with both young men and Lucas' mother, the woman he walked out on in high school."
It was designed for Leyton to be together from the very begining. That's the way it should be!
Can you honestly sit there and say anyone who is with Lucas or Peyton, whether it be Brooke, Lindsey, Jake, whoever, could be happy with them?
Especially Brooke?! With her knowing everything she knows about Leyton? Why put her through that? Quite frankly, she deserved better!!
Posted by: Katie | July 2, 2008 10:30 AM
ok first things first i think lucas and peyton have tried too hard and they just are not the couple they used to be.
I am a brucas fan but i will admit since i have seen every episode of the show since it started that lucas and peyton did have amazing chemistry in season 1 and i do believe that the writers intended to put lucas and peyton together from the beginning BUT.......things change! brooke and lucas had awesome chemistry in season 1 but lucas was not over peyton and while i do think it was horrible what leyton did to brooke (esp. peyton) it gave brooke and lucas even better build up to their real relationship in seasons 2 and 3. for the first time on the show we got to see lucas not brood and just have fun and truly be in love with out all of the drama that came along with peyton. leyton fans need to realize that before leyton got back together the first 8 episodes of season 4 showed lucas trying to get back together with brooke because he was heart broken when she broke up with him. and the main reason that leyton got together was because brooke gave the o.k. for lucas to go after peyton i think many lp fans forget that.! brooke sacrificed her true feelings for lucas to be a good friend to peyton even though they were not friends at the time and that shows how great of a friend that brooke is.
also in season 3 when peytons dad told her to follow her heart who did she run to and go see......JAKE!
season 4 was the worst season of one tree hill i have seen (except the occasional cute naley scene) other than that it was a waste of my time. but i stuck with the show because i knew for season 5 they would skip ahead and hopefully drop some of the old used storylines. but turns out season 5 could have been renamed lucas and peyton hill becuase the entire season revolved around peyton whining because she told lucas no and then lucas moved on and she wasnt happy about it. throughout this entire series peyton has never really known what she wants. and she only wants lucas when he is happy with someone else(lucas even said this in season 5) but i think that the writers and mark esp. have been holding on to this leyton thing since the beginning and i dont think he will give it up unfortunately.
and i read some of the leyton commenters saying that brucas fans were satisfied with the two of them being just friends....and i have to disagree with that...while it is good that we actully have scenes together do you honestly think we wouldnt rather see lucas with brooke and for the two of them to have more romantic scenes rather than scenes with the two of them as friends and you can tell when the two of them have just friendly scenes that the connection they had is still there....and brooke is not over lucas and i dont think she ever has been!!!!!
~people who are meant to be together always find their way in the end.~
btw...i counted and so far its
either bl fans or people that think leyton should give it up:106 -to- leyton fans who think they are THE couple of OTH:73
Posted by: Michelle | July 2, 2008 9:59 AM
i think lucas have to go back to brooke.. they're so hot together. I think it's enough circling around now with Lucas and Peyton. Altough it always seemed to be that they were made for eachother.
I really don't know. On the one hand I think it's better for them to not be with eachother, on the other hand i think they were meant to be together.
So whatever happens, i think it's OK.
You know what would be really awesome? Chuck Bass from Gossip Girl checking in to Tree Hill. And then he's going to get a relationship with Brooke!
omg that would be perfect!
Posted by: Joelle Davis | July 2, 2008 9:52 AM
Leyton needs to be together.Peyton and lucas have this strong chemistry together I am not a brucas hater but i much rather brucas be friends in the show instead of lovers because something always gets in the way of them when they were together such as lucas and peyton sneaking around behind brookes back, brooke sleeping with chris keller after lucas declared his love for her..i really want lucas to pick peyton because they are perfect for eachother and im kinda of sick of lucas being in other relationships and peyton always being left out in the cold..If jake were to come back to the show maybe it would be different but as for now i was and always will be a leytoner

Some of them did go to college, they skipped those years though. When season 4 ended, they had graduated high school and were 17/18. When they started the 5th season, they were 21/22.
Posted by: Teena | July 2, 2008 8:57 AM
think lucas and peyton need to give it up already
i dont know whether they are meant to be or not but watching the two of them try to be together and pine for each other even though they don't really make the effort when they have the chance is really borign to watch
i liked the book throwing scene between lucas and peyton in season 5 but after that i had to change the channel when they were on screen bc it was sooo borign and pointless to hear peyton constantly whine for lcuas
yeah iknow freinds has done it and other shows do it with the on again off again true love couple but in friends...you always knew that ross and rachel had a strong connection and that connection was not there with ross and other characters or for rachel with other characters
i dont see the connection between lucas and peyton anymore and havent sicne season 1...its not even that i think that lucas has a stronger connection with other characters...its just that i dotn think that he and peyotn have a strong connection anymore

Ok, you Leytoners have wrote many quotes. But don`t forget that Lucas has said many things to Brooke also.
If you remember the quote: "You are the one i want next to me when all my dreams come true" was first told to Brooke. Remember when Peyton asked Lucas who he wanted next to him when his dreams came true. He said Brooke!
Now I`ll list some quotes:
Lucas: "I know we are just part-time, that`s cool. You know, do whatever, have your fun. But one of these you`re gonna realize it. I`m the guy for you, Brooke Davis"
Brooke: "People that are ment to be always find their way back in the end".
Brooke: "So, do I get to be a part of this world?"
Lucas: "The Biggest Part"
Lucas: "Anything for you."
Brooke: There are 82 letters in here, all addressed to you. I wrote them all in the summer .. but I never sent them to you becuz I was afraid..
Lucas: Brooke ..
Brooke: (crying) I was afraid of getting my heart broken again, like before .. you hurt me so bad, I was afraid to be vulnerable. and I was afraid of you and the way that you make me feel. i know it doesnt matter now after what I did, but I thought you should know. this is how I spent my summer Luke, wanting you. I was just too scared to admit it.
Lucas: Brooke, I am sorry. What you did with Chris .. it's okay.
Brooke: It's not, it cant be, its too much to forgive.
Lucas: well .. too bad, becuz I forgive you.
Brooke: you cant
Lucas: I just did, so youre gonna just have to deal with it. I am the guy for you Brooke Davis, and I know I hurt you last time we were together but ..
Brooke: I love you
Lucas: I love you too ... ... ... pretty girl.
Brooke: just tell me, why me this time, why not Peyton?
Lucas: i cant say anything bad aboyt Peyton. She's my friend and she's your best friend.
Brooke: it's okay you can say bad things about her
Lucas: oh Brooke. the truth is, i care about Peyton.
Brooke: then what's the difference?
Lucas: the difference? The difference is I love you, Brooke. I want to be with you, not Peyton.
Brooke: But, why? I need to know why.
Lucas: Because you kink your eyebrow when you try to be cute, because you quote Camus even though I've never actually seen you read, and because you miss your parents but you'll never, ever admit that. And because, I've given exactly two of these embarrassing speeches in my entire life, and they've both been with you. I mean, it's-- gotta mean something right? And because we're both going to get pneumonia, but if you need to hear why I love you, I can go on all night.
Brooke: "your the first great guy i've dated and that really scares me because I never gave a rat's ass before"
Lucas: "I give a rat's ass about you too."
Lucas: Brooke! I'm sorry. What you did with Chris, it's okay.
Brooke: It's not. It can't be. It's too much to forgive.
Lucas: Well, that's too bad because I forgive you.
Brooke: You can't.
Lucas: I just did, so you're just going to have to deal with it. I'm the guy for you, Brooke Davis, and I know I hurt you last time we were together...
Brooke: I love you.
Lucas: I love you, too, pretty girl
Lucas: "I barely knew her last year, and know i can`t imagine life around here without you."
Rachel: "DO you really think there`s one person in this entire planet that`s right for you?"
Lucas: "I Do"
Rachel: "Ok,,What about Peyton? I heard that you once had the same feelings for her? Maybe we`re still in high school and you haven`t met 'the one'"
Lucas: "But, I have. It`s Brooke".
Brooke: "All I really want to see is Lucas laugh again, hear him sing off key, watch him roll his eyes when I steal french fries off his plate. All I`m trying to say is that I`m crazy about your son, and I hope that`s enoughfor you.."
Karen: "That`s more than enough".
BRUCAS FOREVER!!!
Posted by: Janusha | July 2, 2008 8:27 AM
Okay, I think that Lucas and Peyton are going to become a couple by the end of the series finale of this show. The whole show is practically based upon the two of them hooking up and breaking up. As soon as you think that they're going to get back together, something occurs to break them apart and then they regret breaking up later.I think that the producer is going to have Lucas put a ring on Peyton's finger by the end of the series. I don't think that they'll have another Brooke/Lucas romantic relationship because...well...the whole Chad and Sophia divorce thing would be kind of weird to see them hook up again on screen. Besides, if he marries anyone else, he's basically going to cheat on them with Peyton. But, I have a question for everyone, why haven't they gone to college? Why did they skip that? Are they trying to teach today's youth to just skip college and go for your dream career?

I feel that they either need to let Lucas and Peyton finally be together and be happy with no more DRAMA! Or they need to move on. They do not need to keep coming and going like they are. If they are not going to put Lucas and Peyton together. Please put Lucas and Brooke together and bring Jake and Jenny back for Peyton! Also leave Haley and Nathan together because they are my FAVORITE!
Posted by: Carla | July 2, 2008 6:57 AM
[Peyton] Hey!! Nice shot!!!
[Lucas] Nice legs!! A little chickeny!
[Peyton] Well, I'll be seeing you.
[Lucas remembering] I'll be seeing you.
[Lucas] Hey, Peyton!! It's you.
[Peyton] What?!
[Lucas] When all my dreams come true, the one I want next to me... It's you. It's you, Peyton.
__________
[Peyton] You know what? Just rip up the check. I'm moving offices, anyway.
[Lucas] Let me ask you something, do you have like an alarm in your head that goes every time I'm happy with someone else? What do you want from me?! I fly to L.A., I ask you to marry me, you said no, so I moved on. Why haven't you?
[Peyton] Cause I should've said yes. Luke, I was young. And I was scared. And I did not realize that by saying I wasn't ready, it would mean that we would never be together again. Had I known that, I would have said yes.
[Lucas] Peyton...
[Peyton] No, Luke, I miss you every day. And I've told everyone here that I didn't come back for you, but I did. Of course I did. I still love you, Lucas.
[Lucas] Peyton, I...
[Peyton] You still love me, don't you?
IT'S ALWAYS BEEN LUCAS & PEYTON!!!!! Even Brooke admits that!!!

I am going with the "Leyton needs to give up" option.
They had their chance, they've had numerous chances but they can never make it work. When their relationship first began in season one it was based on cheating and lies, and even now years later they are still doing the same thing.
I won't argue that Lucas and Peyton are drawn to each other, but just because you want something doesn't mean it is right for you.
And if Peyton is the girl Lucas chooses to go to Vegas with him, it even furthers my point. If he truly believed Peyton was the one for him, if he truly wanted to be married to her, he would not be rushing into a ridiculous, and completely unromantic wedding in Vegas, right after he told her he hated her. He wants to be married, he wants a family, and Peyton is the easy pick because she wants him... But in the end if all boils down to the same thing, they aren't in love with each other, they're in love with the idea of each other.

Honestly...during season 1 I was all about Leyton...and even though I thought Brooke and Lucas were awesome together, it was still that element of just having fun with Lucas...I still slightly pulled for Peyton and Lucas because they had that connection...but watching the season 2 and seeing the way Lucas seemed to almost forget about Peyton and gravitate towards Brooke I started leaning more Brucas...and I think this is a part alot of leyton fans forget or just like to ignore all together but Lucas did choose who he wanted to be with...He could have chosen Peyton right then and there but he chose Brooke...It didn't matter to him that Peyton was slipping away, it mattered that Brooke Davis might not care for him anymore...Why? Because he couldn't picture his life without her...I see why leyton fans want to say leyton is true love and blah blah blah but that connection they had when they 16 isn't there anymore...they were sixteen and I think because they had this deep bond because they could relate their tragic pasts to one another they thought this must mean something...And I think it's possible to be soulmates with someone without being their lover...You don't have to be in love with someone to undertand them...I think Lucas finds that out once he falls for Brooke and I think it's scary for both of the characters because they are aware they are teenagers and their aware how much they hurt each other but their aware how much they love one another and in high school they didn't know how to handle that...Nathan and Haley had the maturity to handle that deep love, even though at times they couldn't fully understand it...But to me true love is demonstrated when I look at Brucas...And I guess I'm biased because I understand that feeling of loving someone so much but being afraid at the same time...when I was in high school I loved this boy, he was my best friend (still is) and one day he asked me out but everyone in school (we went to a small school like Tree Hill) found out and they shoved it in my face that he wasn't meant for me, that we were too different...Like people shove Peyton down Lucas' and Brooke's throat, the people at my school shoved this other girl down my throat (his ex-girlfriend and a very good friend of mine)and I got scared..so scared that even though I had been dying to hear him ask me I told him no...but you know what, it's amazing, because it's been three years and him and that girl that everyone deemed he was meant to be with because they were so perfect together don't even speak now yet we talk every night and hang out whenever our schedules allow it...we're having our first official date fourth of july...and I guess that's why I'm a Brucas fan and think they are what's real because I've been there...and it's why I think Leyton needs to hang it up...In high school it's amazing the people you can be connected to but Lucas and Peyton grew up and they grew apart...different experiences make you different people and I don't know how you can claim to love someone after not talking to them in three years...you can't love them for anything more than for what they were in the past because you don't know who they are now...So I won't give up on Brucas because they do know each other now and they are there for each other without any alternative motives...besides Lucas remembers Brooke and the time they spent together or why else would he remember a purple monkey? it's random but he paid attention to it and he still remembers...
so Leyton give it up because the angst and the drama is over played and I don't believe it anymore...

Okay so wow that was a lot can't believe I just read all of that...can't even remeber everything I wanted to say but her it goes...
1) Everyone keeps saying how the LP relationship has been dragged out for like 5 seasons and all that but really seasons 2 & 3 almost completely ignored them. The only times their was anything romantic between them was toward the end of season 5 other than that it was all Brucas
2)I think that the reason Peyton and Lucas have so many problems admitting what's in their hearts for each other had everything to do with all the lost they've both suffered throughout their lives. In season 1 Peyton was a mess I'll admit that and she ran out on him and denied her feeling for him, but she had just gotten out of this totally emotional abusive relationship with Nathan and didn't know how to deal with the weight of Lucas' feelings for her and once she did he had already jumped into bed with her best friend because it was easier. Which is something Lucas does over and over the boy never learns from his mistakes and ends up breaking hearts because his true feelings always come out in the end. Lucas has this very real fear of being rejected because of what happened with Dan so he goes for what's safe because everything else just hurts to much. But beyond all their crazy problems when things are good for Leyton they are good. They are amazing together and constantly confiding in each otherr. Season 4 was the first time they were really TOGETHER and it was amazing.
3)I do agree though that this has been going on for wayyy to long, but Peyton has finally put aside all her baggage so hopefully Luke can do the same soon. More than anything I just want Luke to pick someone and though I believe 100% that LP are meant to be I think I'll be happy with Luke just making up his mind once and for all.
Anyway I had more to say but I forgot and I've said enough anyway. lol...everyone sees what they want to see in their favorite couple and maybe I'm wrong maybe they are this destructive couple who just hurt everything and everyone around them, but when I watch a scene with them I just I don't even know how to describe it I get this bliss like hope and maybe that's crazy because it's just a TV show, but I think that if I could get that feeling from just watching two fictional characters interact that there's just got to be something there. But anyway rambling and I said I'd stop.

I love Brucas!! They are one of the
best couple to grace our televisions!! Since they dated(got married) they will always have the best chemistry!! I am not saying I hate Leyton or anything but after a while they just get kind of boring!! They always go in the same circle!! Either Lucas is with another girl and Peyton decides she want him or they get together for a while them something pulls them apart!! Even though Peyton my be Lucas soulmate, Brooke and Lucas's love will always be the best!! Hopefully in the end it will have a Dawson's Creek ending like where Joey( Lucas) tells Dawson(Peyton) that he(she) will always be her(his) soulmate and will always love him, but then she(he) end up with Pacey(Brooke)!! Crossing my fingers!! Go Brucas!!

I have really enjoyed watching the relationship between Lucas and Peyton evolve over the years. Their relatinship has been the central part of the show, so for a "true" fan to hate them together or to hate one the characters makes me think that they do not completely understand this show. It isn't about the real live actors and their unending sagas or what drama is going on in their lives; this show is many things including the connection between the kid who didn't feel like he belonged and the girl he pined for. Lucas has and will always come back to Peyton.
As for Lucas and Peyton's other significant relationships, they have brought them to where they are today and LP have jumped through those hurdles so that now hopefully they are ready to begin a relationship with deep love and commitment. Honestly, I believe that they will be together, and it's dumb to think that just because the characters have made mistakes in the past is a reason for them not to be together.
I have not read many of these comments, but I did glance over one that used Brooke's "People who are meant to be together always find their way in the end" quote; I laugh when I see that because as the podcast girls have pointed out it seems that after she said that Lucas thinks about him and Peyton and that things will work out ok for them.

amen to danielle's post.
and i'm sorry, but you guys need to stop accusing peyton of screwing up lucas' life and relationships.
lucas wrote what he wrote in that book, and only after peyton came back. all she did was come back, and that's all it took. wow, peyton is so horrible!
i have realized that this argument is old, and useless and should be water under the bridge by now. but everyone just wants to fight and fight because you think it's going to make some kind of difference. IT'S NOT.
Posted by: kelsey | July 1, 2008 10:41 PM
i support Lucas and Peyton, they are 'the' perfect couple, they have had 'the' perfect moments. they have to, have to, have to meet up in the end!
it's just obvious isn't it? i don't think there should even be any discussion!
take this for example, why did Lucas fail to marry Lindsey?
why didn't Peyton end up marrying Jake?! Because..Leyton are meant to be together!! Period. I'm so counting on having a romantic marriage! it would be perfect!
he wrote a book on her for God's sake! how many guys would do that?and he hasn't done anything of that sort AT ALL for Brooke! i mean in the 5th season, not even for once did Lucas feel anything for brooke out of the friendship line!! but he did for Peyton! their couple is not boring and can not be boring. it's really beautiful! Brooke and Broody don't go together, c'mon!!
he even said to Peyton, 'It was hard letting you go Peyton. It was hard losing you. It was hard seeing you again and It still is very hard.' that has to count for something! he never said that to Brooke!!

What would Friends have been if Ross and Rachel had gotten together right in the middle of its first season?
Would it have been as big of a success? Maybe, but in my opinion probably not. A huge chunk of the cliffhangers of that show, of season driving story arcs were based around their relationship.
My point is that MANY other successful shows in the past have also had a "will they won't they couple" that helps to drive the storylines and that couple is NEVER put together right away.
The writers can't do much more than set up that future romance early on and then if they do it well they'll find ways to keep them apart for as long as possible.
Guess what? Brooke and Lucas wasn't some game-changing relationship that suddenly rewrote what I saw in the pilot episode.
She was an obstacle the writers put in the way of bringing Lucas and Peyton together and it worked extremely well. They really didn't get together with the exceptions of a few kisses in season 1 until season 4.
They couldn't go back down that road in season 5 so PRESTO! There's Lindsay (Which I felt wasn't as well done as the Lucas Brooke relationship was.)
Thats the way I see it.
Arguments that you don't see chemistry or you're just plain tired of it aren't really the best. You're gonna see chemistry with whoever you want Lucas to be with and you're gonna think he's best with the person you want him to be with no matter what the other actress does with her part.
Arguments based on ZOMG BRUCASSS! 4EVA!!1!!1! or LEYTUN is TEH BOMB-DA-DANG-DA-DIGGITY yO! are even worse and I've seen quite a few of those posts.
But just to state my final thought to Mark:
Dude, I love your show. PLEASE stay true to the story you started to tell.
Posted by: Andy | July 1, 2008 10:14 PM
Leyton has to be together in the end.Its been them since the first 5 minutes of the very first episode!! The show started off with them,they wanted you to root for that couple.Its always been them,after everything they've been thru especially thru season 4 & 5,itwouldnt be rite if they werent 2gether in the end.I really dont care about the bad things they say about LP cuz I have faith in them and I have faith that Mark will do them right
Posted by: Kylie | July 1, 2008 9:23 PM
I'm just tired of it all, if LP were meant to be, they would be together already. I see them getting closer, i mean they need that. But lets be realistic people, LP don't work as the real thing.Can someone actually picture Peyton having a baby with Lucas. I think the only couple that has proved they are willing to give up their personal dreams for their family is NH and even they have been having issues.
BL- they have their work cut out for them but i can see them working. their love isn't selfish or at someone's else expense. They would both sacrafice for one another and LP can't do that.
honestly i wouldnt be surprised of Lucas ended up alone.
Posted by: bwaybaby | July 1, 2008 9:10 PM
Leyton needs to just give it up, that is all i am going to say, i could make a huge post of why but really so many posters have already posted why
Posted by: Katy | July 1, 2008 9:07 PM
My heart has always belonged to Leyton... but as of Season 5, I'm kinda thinking Brooke and Peyton are too good for Lucas. Especially Brooke. I'd hate to see her character become less awesome by wasting time over Lucas. And they should bring back Jake. And Lucas can just go cry in a corner and brood and write another metaphorical book or whatever it is he does these days.
Posted by: Keeley | July 1, 2008 8:47 PM
You know who needs to give it up... the Brucas hopefulls... Leyton has been written from the beginning as an epic love, and I truly believe they are destined to be together!!
LEYTON FOREVER!!!!!!
Posted by: Amber | July 1, 2008 8:12 PM
In my opinion, Leyton should end it. I thought it was unnecessary for everyone and their mothers to root for Leyton in S5. It was stupid and it makes me dislike them even more as a couple. If they are a good couple, then the audience can see that. Like someone below said, it is suffocating to watch the serie when almost all the characters are being Leyton cheerleaders. If they are meant to be, then the audience should be able to see. We have Leyton fans going around spreading their love and how they are soulmates, we don't need that on the show too. Thank you very much.
I seriously think the amount of screen time given to Lucas & Peyton as a couple can be used for some other better storyline.
As a couple, they bring out the worst in each other, with huge disregard to the people around them. I'm sure Whitey and Camille hurt a lot of people in the process until they got together.
Plus, look at Peyton this season. She was a horrible character, throwing water balloons at bystanders, nasty attitude with Lindsey, trying to steal Lucas away from Lindsey, etc. Love shouldn't be that way. It should bring the best out of two people, not deception, selfishness, and pain.
For people below that says they want Peyton & Lucas together, well hello, they were together in S4. They were so "great" together that nothing interesting ever happened with the relationship (ie, they were boring as a couple). Then they managed to break up over something that is suppose to be endearing to couples, and managed to not talk to each other for years. What kind of love is that?
They are a failure as a couple, and they should just remain friends period.

Leyton may have their issues, but they are definitely the "forever" type of relationship. Believe me, I think that Peyton could do much better than Lucas, but they both love each other so much that all the pain will eventually be worth it. This ship has been planned out by Mark to be together since the show began.
For the record, I'm not dissing Brucas. I know that Lucas did love Brooke, but his love for Peyton has lasted so much longer. The fact that they still care for each other now despite all their time apart doesn't mean that the love is done, it means that their love is inevitable. No matter who they date, they always realize that in their hearts they love each other, and that's what soulmates are all about.
The quote that Brooke said to Lucas, "People who are meant to be together always find their way in the end", applies to Leyton. Especially since at the time that Brooke told him that, Lucas wanted to be with Peyton instead.
But aside from that, Leyton has a realistic relationship. People break up, but with these two, you can always tell that they still love each other, even if they're trying to hide it.
I don't know about you guys, but a relationship like Brucas had is not true love. I wouldn't want to constantly argue with my boyfriend, and I wouldn't want to always be paranoid about my guy loving another girl.
Peyton never freaked out and thought that Lucas still loved Brooke while she was dating him.
All I'm saying is, Leyton is destiny.
If they have to break up, they should move on to other people, and definitely not bring Brucas back.
For Sophia's sake if no one else's. No way in hell would I want one of my favorite actresses to be forced to make out with the guy that cheated on her.
In conclusion, Leyton are the be-all, end-all. They'll find their way in the end.

Pucas sucks! "Meant to be" was a recent invention to make them seemingly have a deep history! Brooke & Lucas have the real history!
Posted by: PUCAS SUCKS! | July 1, 2008 7:35 PM
Lucas and Peyton are meant for each other Scwann has said it several times. Even when they weren't romantically involved they were always friends cause they need to be in each others lives. The only reason Lucas runs and goes after other girls/ peyton goes after other guys is because their afraid to get hurt. They love each other so much that losing each other is so hard for them they just avoid it all together. LP is an epic romance because it's been through so much yet they still can't get over each other. He wrote 2 books about her for god sakes.
There will never ever be anyone else in either of their lives who understands them or could love them better.
Posted by: Hannah | July 1, 2008 7:34 PM
No surprise none of my post was approved. Well I will keep it brief. THIS THREAD IS ABSOLUTELY POINTLESS AND STUPID. I dont even know why it was started. All it will achieve as past debates on the CW boards have shown is the vast amount of immature BLers stating Leyton sucks and BL has more chemistry and meant to be and so on. The LP/BL debate is never gonna end but it can be minimised and threads like this does not help or achieve anything other than fuel it. Also kudos girls the thread is very civil. Its funny how you can not hate a couple but a fanbase can make you dislike the couple. I might not have minded BL even though they werent going anywhere but I tell you the BLers can put you right off the couple with the immaturity level of SOME (unfortunately a majority). I find that they need to put down LP in order for BL to make sense which is just sad so from an LP fan who didnt care enough about BL to ship them but didnt hate them when they were together, my opinion has severely changed to disliking the couple and threads like this solidifies enough more my reasons for supporting LP and not BL. Peace

"I was now and would always be in love with Peyton Sawyer."
and I believe that is true.
I think no matter how much they try to find other people they will forever be in love with each other.
You can't deny their chemistry. "It's always gonna be there."
For those who still believe that Brooke and Lucas are soulmates...come on now seriously? I think it's been established that they are just friends and nothing more. Brooke can do better anyway.
Hell I think Peyton can do better to but she is so in love with Lucas and always will be. Like Keith said "She lived a good life Luke, but she was never able to let go of you." No matter how hard Lucas tries to love someone else he can't. It will always be Peyton.
"Your always saving me"
"You are matters, it's what got me here."
"Your the one I want next to me when all my dreams come true."
If Peyton would have said yes to his proposal this wouldn't even have to be a topic because they would have been happily married. I think it's obvious that Lucas calls Peyton and asks her to get married in the finale. She'll obviously say yes because "it's her dream."
They're soulmates end of story.
Anyone who believes otherwise is delusional.
Posted by: Meli | July 1, 2008 7:10 PM
First thing's first: there was a comment above that was made by Natasha... THANK YOU! She posted a bunch of quotes that spoke for themselves as far as proof of why Lucas and Peyton are meant to be together and how obvious their love for each other is, regardless of season.
Now, I can completely understand why people are tired of Leyton. Especially at this point where Lindsey was introduced. I personally think that Lindsey ruined it. Yeah shes a great character but given the history of the show, she was out of place and dragged the show.
What a lot of Brucas fans do not seem to realize is the history involved in the Leyton chemistry. Why would Mark, the genius that he is, declare in episode 1 of season one the very strong chemistry between them and not follow through? It was obvious that he did it for a reason and he never regrets that choice. Brucas from the start was all about sex. NO LOVE! Regardless if Lucas kept saying how much he cared about her and claimed to love her, it wasn't real. Lucas wanted more from Peyton and thats why when he had his first chance with her, he said that he wanted *everything* with her and pointed to her heart. It wasnt about sex. Brooke just wanted to bang him and eventually Lucas gave in. He never took the time to love her *first* before that.
This discussion can go on for ages but the facts are obvious. Leyton are destined to be together in the show. And soon enough we will see it happen.
Mark has already made it perfectly clear that Brucas fans can be happy in the sense of seeing those two together but as FRIENDS. Right now they have a different level of love and it's not about the romance. they've grown past that.
As much as I adore and LOVE Peyton with Jake, Lucas will always be the one she is meant to be. Granted I am not crazy about Lucas right now because he's acting like an idiot this season and Jake is like beyond perfect for her lol but I dont think that Mark will do that given the situation everyone is in.
And regardless if Lucas said that he wanted to marry Lindsey, that does not mean that he stopped loving Peyton. He wanted to marry Lindsey because he wanted to get over Peyton and move on even tho deep in his heart he knew that wasnt going to happen but he tried to fight destiny and Lindsey saw right through it. Lucas needs to get his act together before making a commitment to anyone. Especially Peyton who has never stopped loving him. HE was the one that walked out on her when she wanted to wait.
Let's just see what happens because what every fan MUST remember and realize is that this show has so much more details and storylines from what we see. We must dig deeper and analyze their actions and speech. Everything is put in place for a reason. In other words: "Read between the lines" and THEN thats when you will truly appreciate what Mark has done in this show.
Posted by: Zury | July 1, 2008 7:07 PM
Well I'm a Lucas and Brooke fan, but trust me I do not have to dissect Leytons faults to prove anything about BL. However since the question has
been posted about LP I will speak my mind on it. I have watched every eppy and I own all except S4(no thanks)and I for one never saw LP as meant to be.In S1 I always saw it as Lucas
being infatuated with her,nothing more.I think now he definily loves her, but in love? No
I don't agree.
It could have been more but oh what a tangled web they created entering Brooke into the situation and showing LP in such a negative light.If LP had never started out on such lies and deceit I could have seen them become more. However when there connection started to hurt other people who didn't deserve it that
was when I couldnt get into them. Then in S4 just forget about it. I couldn't buy a single scene with them. The fact that Brooke had to push Lucas to even try with P that season spoke volumes. You need Your ex girlfriend to push u into being with your supposed one true love. Nah, I don't think so. On top of that In season 1 at least I saw the chemistry between LP , but now I can honestly say I see nothing and they really do BORE me. I know others find them riveting...lol... but they are definitly not my cup of tea. I hope Mark is reading this as well. Mark if you are, Thank You for creating A show I truly love, but please stop the LP madness. Just My humble
opinion. ; )

Lucas and Peyton are the be-all, end-all couple of One Tree Hill pure and simple. It's been there since the pilot and it will be there in the very last episode. I have total faith that the writers will have them ultimately end up together. It will be Nathan/Haley and Lucas/Peyton in the end.
Posted by: Jamie | July 1, 2008 6:26 PM
Leyton really do belong together i mean, it was totally meant to be almost just like Nathan and Haley<3 :) But sometimes it seems like Brook and Lucas should be together. But for you people who haven't seen the whole series of one tree hill you should know that Mark has always gone back and forth with Lucas and Peyton and Lucas and Brooke... it's been tuff but in the end im sure Leyton will be together just becase it's fate and thats the way Mark wants it to be.

in the fifth season lucas helped brooke with angie. this shows that brooke and lucas would make the perfect couple and ready for a family together. (unlike real life situations)

Goes both ways, Danielle. Those who are Leyton fans say the exact same thing when it come to Brucas. There's immaturity in both fanbases.
This shows how passionate the fans are, but it also shows how the two different fanbases view the show.
It'll always be like that when there's a triangle on a show. It never stops.
Posted by: Anonymous | July 1, 2008 5:44 PM
I just wanted to answer the folks who wonder why we even opened this can of worms. Short answer? Because it seems to come up in every single post we do about OTH (and occasionally other shows), whether Leyton is the focus of the episode or not. Obviously, it's what people want to talk about. That's what this feature is for: Give it your best shot. Convince us why you're right.
Which reminds me: "Leyton/Brucas SUCKS!" is not an argument. It's a tantrum, and it's not going to convince anyone. Remember the rules: No personal attacks, no yelling, and no branding anyone who doesn't agree with you an idiot. Keep it civil, but keep telling us what you think, and why!

I'm for team give up!!!
Posted by: Roberta | July 1, 2008 5:32 PM
need to give it up:
peyton and lucas had initial attraction, but come on that was more lust than love. lucas fell in love with brooke and all peyton did was break them apart, not because she loves lucas, but because she needs attention. brooke reminded lucas of his fun spirit, she is his soulmate, we all know it. just watch the whole third season, nothing that lucas and peyton has done can compete.
"i'm the guy for you brooke davis"
we all know this is true. the only thing lucas has ever said to peyton was about his dreams, but he was just excited about winning the state champs. give it up, peyton is two-faced, and always wants attention from a boy. once she had jake, she had to dream about lucas. jake is her soulmate now she needs to stay away from lucas.
jake has summed up peyton pretty well too. she just wants a family or ANYONE to love because she has lost 2 moms and gone through a lot.
dear mark,
please keep peyton away from lucas. its not fair to him for peyton to screw up every relationship he is in.
sincerely,
your biggest fan

This was a horrible discussion to open up. As you guys already know there is a huge division in the OTH fandom regarding Leyton/Brucas.
I am a Leytoner. Reading comments like "Leyton sucks" or that they are "loosers" just shows the immaturity of that fan base. It's a testament to the Brucas relationship really. Immature, insecure, needy...etc. The Brucasers need to bash LP and "prove" to you guys and to Mark that their couple is better just shows why they're not.
Am I upset that Mark has put people between LP? Sure. But that is real life. People break up and try to move on. I have done it in my own relationship. But I could never get over that one person regardless of how hard I tried. What makes me believe in Lucas and Peyton is that despite other people, distance, years of time something remains. When they saw each other after 3 years they STILL felt something. If that is not meant to be I don’t know what is.
Posted by: Danielle | July 1, 2008 5:16 PM
if im going to be 100% honest answering this question i think leyton needs to give it up. i think the only peoples opinion on this question that matter are people who have seen every single episode of oth. seeing as that i have all the seasons on dvd and have rewatched them numorous times, i feel that leyton do not belong together. again, if im being honest, in season one it was clear to ANYONE that they should be together. But then something amazing happend. lucas peyton and brooke decided to just be friends. But lucas chose BROOKE over peyton. Now you can say what you want but in my opinion if leyton is such 'tla' and stuff then why would luke chose brooke over her? i believe that people are so set on an idea that was meant to be that they never stopped to rewatch season 2 and 3. and you can use your logic about how brucas wasnt like whitey and camilla or w.e. you want but in reality, when your in love with someone, is your love really like anyone else's? Lucas and Peyton have had so many opportunites to just be together, yet they both chose not to. And i find it very odd that brooke said 'people that are meant to be together always find their way in the end.' i just don't understand the logic of her saying that if it didn't somehow get brought up again. Yes, i am a brucas fan if you were wondering, but that's not the point. My point is that lucas could end up with a doormat and to me i would be happier than if he really ended up with peyton. i mean peyton even said she was in love with the idea of lucas. and i really hope mark reads these comments because it's good to get ideas or thoughts from fans. I think that lindsay and lucas could have easily worked out too. I believe that had season 2 and 3 never existed they could have been together and not many people would have objected to it. BUT YOU CAN'T JUST ignore those seasons it's like reading a story but skipping 5 chapters in it. and in those seasons they created a couple who just seemed to connect, refresh, and wow some of the people who were watching the show. There is no ignoring the brucas or leyton relationship as much as i wish i could erase leyton i can't but i can still think they weren't, aren't, and will not ever be meant to be.

Such a slippery slope, this subject. Because there are so many passionate fanbases for this show. LP, BL, NH, JP.
I saw the chemistry between Lucas and Peyton in the first season. There was no denying that they were the set-up couple, the one that was "meant to be". But the dynamics of the show changed as well as the characters.
Should Lucas and Peyton give it another shot or just have the whole thing dropped like a hot potato? My opinion is the latter. They're both different people now. True, they may have the same dreams, individual dreams when they were younger, but do those dreams include each other.? We know where Peyton stands based on last season. But Lucas did move on with Lindsey. He was moving forward.
They should move on, but not with each other. With someone new, someone from the past..someone that they truly deserve. And they deserve a friendship, but romance just isn't in the cards for them.
Peyton: "Lucas..I love you."
Lucas: "Oh"
vs.
Lucas: "Because I do..Peyton..but it's okay because there's this other girl you might know her... Brooke Davis and I am completely IN love with her."
Which declaration would you prefer??

Leyton move overrr.

Brucas all the wayyy.
They allow one another to grow & be different. Teach other new things and see a different persepective on life...i LOVE BRUCAS!!!

Nathan and Halaey.
They are the only clear be all and end all couple of OTH. The rest is just...too confusing.
Posted by: bjoyfan | July 1, 2008 4:57 PM
i find it funny how so many ppl still think brooke and lucas will get back together!
but this is not a brucas thread so... Leyton?
obviously they are meant to be together and after watching all the season i never understood how people could think otherwise. They are so in love. Even season three when thier not together you can tell. Every character on the show can tell- Nathan, Haley, Skillz, Lindsey, Karen, Even Brooke! theres been many love triangles on the show 1)Nathan Peyton Lucas 2)Brooke Lucas Peyton 3)Lindsey Lucas Peyton- notice a pattern anyone? they can never get over one another- even three years later they arent over each other- even after lucas moved on to lindsey he wasnt over her. He wrote a book that was practicly a love letter to her and even after they broke up he was caring an maticulous in chosing words for her (lindseys words not mine!) and then wrote another book that every person who reads it can tell its about peyton. They are meant to be together thats how its always been - and wheather you like them as a couple or not thats the way it is

I don't understand why Leyton is being portrayed as "epic". All they had for majority of the show is a friendship. Seeing the two together romantically makes me think of incest. They are more like brother/sister because of their friendship. I don't see the chemistry there at all. Peyton only wants Lucas when she can't have him and then when they get together, there is nothing there! Really, if you watch the show, they were only together for maybe two months before she went to LA and then for the next year, they only saw each other twice. Lucas proposes and gets rejected by Peyton. A year later, he is expecting her to show at the book signing and when he didn't see her there, he moved on. Leyton is played out and they need to go back to their friendship. There has never been a real relationship with them and clearly Lucas has loved Lindsey and is now being drawn back to Brooke. Lucas has changed and so has Peyton. Peyton is trapped in the past and is too scared to move on. She needs to get over this obsession and let Lucas be happy with whoever he wants. Peyton is pathetic and needs to realize this isn't high school anymore and move on. They have both changed since high school and don't have a chance of "rekindling" whatever Leyton was supposed to have portrayed. They are hardly meant to be and it personally makes me sick to see them portrayed in that manner. Here's to hoping that Lucas and Peyton are both given more of storyline that will expand their characters instead of stifling them.

Ok, first off, who is this new Sarah and what happened to the old one I loved so much? lol I totally read everything you wrote with a sarcastic tone without quite meaning too. And as for Mia and especially Jackie, I totally agree.
I'm obviously totally in the "they need to give it up" camp. I'm not even going to make this a Brucas vs Leyton or Jeyton vs. Leyton thing. Leyton just doesn't scream epic couple to me. If anything, that's Naley (and I don't even really ship them but they're obviously the meant-to-be couple of the show, not Leyton).
Besides the fact that Leyton are totally boring (being holed up in a dark dreary room listening to emo music while one reads and the other draws freaky death sketches isn't all that appealing to me, sorry) and so alike they couple be twins, I don't see them as an "epic" or even good couple because all they do when they're together is hurt each other and those around them. Their relationship is absolutely selfish and always comes at the expense of others. They never even seem to care about each other until there's someone else involved. Not only that, but they bring out the worst in each other. All they do is cause each other angst and pain.
The writers are trying to shove this whole "they're meant to be" junk down our throats but I'm not buying it. How about instead of having everyone and their grandmother telling me that Leyton are supposed to be together, show me instead maybe? The writers might have meant for them to be this legendary couple at the start, but they totally screwed up the follow through. They had a connection in the beginning and then after that, they barely interacted for a couple of seasons. That is until one day a bunch of people told Lucas he was supposed to be with Peyton and by the end of the episode he had forgotten that just a few days ago he wanted someone else, and just went along with it.
How can a couple that's hardly even been together be epic? They had a short affair in the first season and then didn't get back together until midway through season 4 (when he was told to be with her, he didn't have some moment of clarity like some people like to claim). They basically lasted the rest of the season and then the majority of their short lived relationship was spent with them on different sides of the country from one another.
They only reason I see people even considering them as an epic couple is because everyone on the show keeps telling the viewers they are. That's not enough for me. If the 2 of them end up together in the end, then it's because they deserve to be miserable together, not because they're somehow a new age Romeo and Juliet. All these 2 have ever taught me is that if you cry enough and if hurt enough people, you'll get what you want in the end.

Leyton rocks!!! Someone previously commented its because chad and sophia split in real life why there is a leyton and not a brucas, something like that. That person obviously have not seen all 1-5 season. Am not being rude, just commenting.

Leyton need to give up. They were ok in season 1 (before he started to date Brooke) but in all the other seasons if they were a couple or not they were boring and annoying (see season 4). I think truly Peyton was herself when she was with Jake and I don't think Lucas dosen't deserve anyone after how he screwed it up with both Brooke and Lindsay.
Posted by: Natasha | July 1, 2008 3:51 PM
Do you even have to ask?! Of course Leyton belong together! They have that relationship that is destined…
Some quotes to prove it…
Lucas: Brooke’s great, but she’s not you.
Lucas: I have to be with you.
Peyton: Even if we could be together, what makes you think it would work?
Lucas: ’Cause I feel it in my heart, don’t you?
Peyton: Yes.
Lucas: Your art matters, it’s what got me here.
Lucas: I’ll be seeing you.
Lucas: Whatever you may think, I still care about you Peyton.
Lucas: I want us to be together forever.
Lucas: You’re the one I want next to me when my dreams come true.
Peyton: You’re always saving me.
Lucas: Somebody’s got too.
Peyton: I never let myself need anybody. Ever. Not since my mom died. But with Lucas, he looks at me and he really sees me. You know? Just right down into my soul.
Peyton: I was so afraid you weren’t going to wake up.
Lucas: What? And miss out on being with you?
Lucas: It’s always going to be there isn’t it? You and me?
Lucas: God, I love you so much Peyton.
Lucas: What do you want now?
Peyton: I want everything with you.
Lucas: Look Peyton, you know I love you right? Yeah. No matter what happens to either of us, you will always be in my heart”
Peyton: Its not gonna matter anyway. Whether I stay or go... with us, cause i'm gonna love you forever Lucas Scott”
Lucas: You could work on it here. I love to watch you draw
PEYTON: Lucas what are you…
LUCAS: I wanted to see you
PEYTON: The doctor said you shouldn’t be out. What are you crazy?
LUCAS: Probably. I just had to get out of there, you know? I can’t get you out of my head. I wish we could just fast forward these next 6 months. This messed up thing with Brooke. So we could just be together.
Lucas: I want to have everything with you. I want it all. I want us, Peyton.
Lucas: It’s you
Peyton: What?
Lucas: when all my dreams come true, it’s you. It’s you Peyton.
And these are just some of the quotes!
Haley: Peyton not just another ex-girlfriend and everybody knows that.
Lucas and Peyton=True love always <3

I personally think Leyton have lost whatever spark they had. I find their storylines tired and lacklustre. I'm pleased for the fans that love them that they got to see them together in Season 4 as they've been waiting a long time but they do nothing for me. If I was a Leyton fan I'd be more the disappointed with the way they've been written, I guess they’ve had what you could call ‘Leyton angst’ this season but it just seems that they’re obvious reconciliation has been dragged and dragged out some more by the writers. I just don’t get them, either I find them boring and without spark or sickly sweet (the cookie dough scene last year), so much that it makes me nauseous! Yes I am Brucas fan but I don't believe in disliking one couple because it means your couple won't be together, I think that's stupid. In fact I think it’s so silly that I've tried to understand Leyton, tried to like them but I'm sorry to say I just don't get it. In Season One I can maybe see it… when they both were searching for answers, something more... they both had the broody, mysterious thing going and it connected them at first but now they seem too similar... they don't bring anything to each other. To me they just have no spark and little chemistry. They make good friends not lovers. To me Brooke and Lucas are very different and thanks makes for such a nice balance. After all they do say that opposites attract! ;)
The problem with Leyton, for me, is that they've been too hyped up and almost forced upon us. They whole comet and 'meant to be' stuff is shoved down our throats. It's like they're not giving fans a choice. And you have characters like Skills being, what some fans refer to as, ‘Leyton cheerleaders’, constantly championing the couple. And then there was Bevin saying she thought Lucas and Peyton would have married. There’s just so many Leyton meant to be this and that’s that I find it difficult to watch, sometimes almost like I can’t breathe... I feel like I'm being told by the writers to like Leyton... and I’m sorry, I don't!
I fell in love with another couple, Brucas... I never believed they would get back together. I'll never forget my surprise at that kiss Lucas gave Brooke in the Season Two finale. I love TV when it surprises us, shocks up. Brucas were never planned but they became popular and the writers changed their path. It was such an amazing turn off events. Perhaps that’s why it felt so natural. Leyton are predictable and it’s boring me to tears. But Brucas… their chemistry is off the chart. And then there was Jake and Peyton; their relationship just seemed to grow... so organic, so natural. I find I enjoy and love the character of Peyton much more when she’s with Jake and not mourning over Lucas. How bitter and bitchy she has been for some of this Season… the things she said to Lindsey, not the Peyton I thought I knew. She seemed much more independent; starting Tric, doing things by herself when Jake was in the picture etc It's boring to watch her brood over Lucas. And it's silly she would be in love with him for so many years after they broke-up, I find that hard to believe... sorry writers.
And what’s more Leyton are made out to be this ‘epic’ sort of love. Have the writers forgotten that Leyton just lusted after each other in Season One, they were never a proper couple that year. Brooke was Lucas’s first love, as he was hers. Yet all we hear now is Leyton this, Leyton that… I just find it overwhelming to watch.
I know Chad and Sophia are professionals, and while I respect how difficult it must be to film romantic scenes, I can't help but think we have no more Brucas because of their split. I'm not saying we would have had Brucas forever, they may have split but I believe things would have been different. They would most likely have got back together. Chad and Sophia's spilt messed up their (the writers) game plan and I think that’s why Leyton feels so out of place and awkward because things had to be changed. All in all, I feel Leyton are good as friends but their romantic relationship has been forced upon fans and has become dragged out and boring. I’m glad the Leyton fans got to see their couple together but no matter how hard I try, I just can’t see what they see. Too many fans are too loyal to the show to demand more or disagree with the pairings of couples… they’re happy to take what ever they can get it. Not that it matters what I have to say, it seems pretty clear to me that we’re going to get Leyton as endgame, at least some of the fan base will be thrilled… I just won’t be one of them.
Posted by: Claire | July 1, 2008 2:44 PM
My opinion? Lucas and Peyton need to give it up. They were really good in the beginning of season 1, but then everything has changed. It's just...I stopped enjoying their scenes together. I don't like them in the rest of the season 1, then in the end of season 3. And then in season 4. But the worst season for them is season 5 (in my eyes). Too much drama, tears, hate etc.
So it means they were the best in season 2 and most of the season 3. I guess I like them as friends 'cause they understand each other.
Posted by: Ada | July 1, 2008 2:31 PM
Leyton <3
Lucas and Peyton are meant to be together and everyone knows it. Look back at all the things Lucas has done for Peyton and what has he ever done for Brooke?
He wrote a whole book about how much in love he is with Peyton Sawyer! And didn't you hear his predictions?! Peyton Sawyer will become Peyton Scott and that was in what? 7th grade?
Lucas and Peyton are meant to be together! TRUE LOVE ALWAYS!
LEYTON=Endgame!!!
Posted by: Hilarie | July 1, 2008 2:26 PM
I totally think that lucas and peyton need give it up already.
although i saw their connection in season 1, and even though i didnt like it, i still thought they should be together, since then i do not get the vibe that they belong together or even really want to be together.
I feel like every time they hit a slight snag in their relationship they both bail on each other, and both of them have made greater sacrifices for other people (lucas for lindsay and brooke and peyton for jake)
either way...even if they really do love each other more than anyone else and even if they were just in "denial"...its a love that is hard for me to believe in, because i think that both lucas and peyton love the idea of being in love and feel like the more it hurts the more its true love
lucas's portrayal of their love in his book was more beautiful than the reality that i watched during seasons 2 and 3 and even 4...i feel like he has created this beautful love in his imagination but when it comes to real life lucas and peyton it doesnt work that way
also i liked haley's quote in the season 5 finale and i think it portrays lucas and peyton's relationship clearly...she said something like "you know that romantic notion that all the garbage and the pain is actually healing and beautiful and sort of poetic , its not, its just garbage and pain, you know whats better, love..."
i think thats what lucas and peyton feel for each other...that the "garbage" and "pain" between them is beautiful and poetic but in reality its not what true love is and that when their relationship was good, like in season 4, it really wasnt enough for them and thats why they didnt keep in touch with each other or try harder to be together when they actually could have
Posted by: karen | July 1, 2008 2:03 PM
Lucas just told Peyton he hated her. Drunk minds speak sober thoughts. He would never say anything like that to Brooke, drunk or not. Never.
Posted by: Christin | July 1, 2008 1:40 PM
Lucas needs to decide who he wants to be with once and for all. But with all my heart I hope that it is Peyton! It is just a TV show but their love inspires me to believe in true love like theirs.
Leyton!!! Leyton always!!!!
Posted by: Gina | July 1, 2008 1:31 PM
honestly i think this whole situation sucks for mark because the whole thing at the beginning was just good drama..a love triangle always is good drama. But Im not sure that he really thought about how much its gonna suck at the end when you have to choose who Lucas is really going to BE with. Brooke is my favorite character I love her sooo much. But at the start of the show she was supposed to be, idk kinda slutty i guess you could say lol. But Sophia and Chad have such great chemistry that in the second season they really won over the crowd with Brucas. But Lucas and Peyton also have amazing chemistry and a past. So when you look at it from marks view, it just sucks for him.. lol
Posted by: amy | July 1, 2008 1:27 PM
I am all for true love and I see that with Brooke and Lucas...They are the couple that inspire me. They have always been there for one another through the good times and the bad. Plus, when Lucas met up with Brooke in NY he told Brooke that Peyton had changed. Yes, he may have been hurt. She wasn't the same person. They are not meant to be...Brooke and Lucas are!
Posted by: Melissa | July 1, 2008 1:21 PM
Have you ever been drawn to someone? Just drawn... From the first time you've ever seen that special someone, he/she was just cemented in your heart. Forever. And maybe that person is completely wrong for you, maybe you'll never be together, but there's no turning back. It's true love. It can be a bumpy road. But it's the feeling you'll never get rid off, you're stuck with it like you're stuck with yourself.
And that what Leyton is for me. Something very personal and true. Everlasting love.
Yes, Lucas and Brooke were in love, nobody's arguing that, but they came to a mutual agreement they are not the ones for each other. They both felt there's more to love and loving then what they shared. Which was very mature of both of them.
So you may like Leyton and you may not, but the way they were written, wow, wouldn't you like to feel that kind of connection with someone? Like you were born for each other.
So, yeah, Leyton...
Posted by: mary | July 1, 2008 1:19 PM

Posted by: Mary | July 1, 2008 1:02 PM
LEYTON = Loosers,
Extremely boring, Y don`t the give it up already?, Obiviuosly Siblings! NOT MENT TO BE!!!
I don`t get what Leyton fans and Mark think when they say that Leyton are soulemate. Seriously!, if they were soulemate they probably would have solved everythin out by now. And they have tried so many times, they have broken Brucas but they have failed on their realtionship to many times. But Brucas has kind of never ended a realtionship without Peyton breaking them up. When I see them the first thing that pops into my mind is Siblings! They are to much alike, they like all the same things. They are boring together. But Brucas has chemistry, and that is a thing that Leyton don`t have. I know you guys have not seen season 2 & 3, and season 3 is the best season for Brucas, so you don`t know.
I feel like Peyton wants Lucas ehn he is with someone else. In seaosn 1 Brooke asked Peyton if she wanted Lucas, but Peyton said no. But then when Brooke got together with him, she wantes him. In season 3 when Brooke is with Lucas and they are incredible together she decides that she wants him again. And in season 5 when Lucas is with Lindsey she wants him again. And like you said Mia, i think that she loves the idea of him more than she loves him.
And they don`t have chemstry, that is something Brucas have.
Peyton and Lucas can be friends, and she should end up with Jake. She is so better with him.
BRUCAS FOREVER!!
PEOPLE THAT ARE MENT TO BE ALWAYS FIND THEIR WAY BACK IN THE END (Brucas)
Posted by: Janusha | July 1, 2008 1:00 PM
Come on guys , Brucas are meant to be .
Even if Brucas doesn't exist , all all the leyton story is based on cheating and lying , I can't remember one episode where theye were just happy , peyton always need something more and everything around her is so complicated . Lucas wants a simple relationship , he just wants to give his love to someone who want it and who will love him in return .That's not leyton at all .
Brooke and Lucas are soulmates and leyton should just give up or should I say , peyton should give up cause Lucas already moved on .

ok leyton is so over they need a new word for it... peyton is so destructive towards lucas. everything thats great in his life she has to turn to crap and together they are just one big pile of mess. brucas is a much better choice and at least 55 of my friends who are also avid watchers of the show agree with me.
R.I.P Leyton and hopefully Brucas will be resurrected

Leyton need to give it up seriously. theyyy are soooo boring , it's not even funny !
Brucas all the way , at least they are a cute , and a funny Couple! You can see that they love each other.
Look, this season, we've only seen Peyton's love for Lucas. he never said he loved her. Get over it P, Lucas clearly doesn't love her. She is just the easiest choice because he doesn't want to be hurt again.

I'm going to make my way over to the 'Leyton Needs to Give It Up' camp.
I mean, season 1, fair enough it seemed like it was going to be something epic, but after a while the angst and the heartbreak and the 'we are soul mates' thing got really old.
To be honest, if they were going to get Leyton together, and by this I mean properly together, they should have done it ages ago, because as it stands now I think their chemistry has gone pretty stale.
So basically I'd rather they let Leyton go, because it's far too tiring.
Although having said that, if the writers went down the Leyton route, and they managed to make it fresh and new and angst-free, I would be pleasantly suprised.
I'm just not sure they can.

LEYTON NEED TO GIVE IT UP!
They are so annoying. All they do is hurt other people and that's suppose to be true love? Whatever. They've hurt Brooke twice and Lindsey once. They love the excitement of hurting people. To make them endgame on the show would be like saying that it's okay to cheat because you are going to live happily ever after when you do!
Posted by: jamie | July 1, 2008 12:24 PM
Wow girls! You sure get a lot of comments out of this. You're brave to bring up such a topic, knowing it'll be a war against the shippers. LOL.
Personally, I think Leyton needs to give it up. Im done. I've never shipped them, and I never will.
When I watched how their relationship was build up on lying and cheating in the beginning I called it a day. Brooke fell for Lucas and for Peyton to do that to her best friend? Uh-uh! Bad call!
Lucas and Peyton is never going to work. It wouldn't surprise me if he calls Peyton to go to Vegas, because he knows she doesn't have enough dignity to say no. She's been pining after him like an obsessed little girl. They've been shoved down everyone's throat this season... Not cool!
I can't wait to your podcasts on season 2 and 3! Have a nice day! :)
Posted by: Getoverit | July 1, 2008 12:17 PM
Im a hardcore NH fan, so I don't really care about BL/LP. But I must say I prefer Brucas before Leyton.
Peyton annoys me and the only time I can remember where she DIDN'T annoy me, was when she was with Jake.
I guess Im leaning more towards Brooke and Lucas because they have this chemestry that Lucas and Peyton is never going to have.
Lucas and Peyton try too hard. That's why they don't work together. The only reason Brooke and Lucas didn't work is because Peyton doesn't let them.
Lucas and Peyton started off as cheaters. The only reason I would say I want Leyton to be together is because Brooke deserves better. With that being said, Lucas and Peyton needs to give up!
They've been shoved down my throat enough, and I don't even care about the triangle!
Posted by: NHfan | July 1, 2008 11:57 AM
Lucas loves Peyton but he's really stuborn and don't want to get hurt again.. he wants Peyton to feel the same pain.
Brook and Lucas have lust, and chemistry, but what Peyton share with Lucas is deep.
And don't forget he blew off Brooke many times for Peyton.
They both want to move on and yet still be with each other everybody sees that Luke and Peyton want each other.
even Brooke said it, and she's been there between them '' no love is stronger than Leyton ''.
So are they the ultimate couple?, i don't know do you!?
but if they don't try, they won't never now and they will regret it for the rest of their lives.

also i liked haley's quote in the season 5 finale and i think it portrays lucas and peyton's relationship clearly...she said something like "you know that romantic notion that all the garbage and the pain is actually healing and beautiful and sort of poetic , its not, its just garbage and pain, you know whats better, love..."
i think thats what lucas and peyton feel for each other...that the "garbage" and "pain" between them is beautiful and poetic but in reality its not what true love is and that when their relationship was good, like in season 4, it really wasnt enough for them and thats why they didnt keep in touch with each other or try harder to be together when they actually could have been

BRUCAS is the meant to be couple...
They have to be endgame...
Leyton is based on cheating and lying and I think Mark doesn't want to show this as True Love...
Brooke is the girl for Lucas... Their love is REAL...

I have been a Leyton fan since season 1, and I dont see that changing.
LEYTON FOREVER!!!
Posted by: Jessie | July 1, 2008 11:47 AM
im a BIG Brucus fan.. but this is not why im saying this.. the whole Layton storyline.. getting together breaking up has really dragged... everytime they get together something always goes wrong.. that tells me that its just not ment to be and they should just move on with their lives..
Lucus is a cool dude and the chemistry he shares with brooke is much stronger then the chemistry he shares with payton.. the whole of season 5 even tho brooke and lucus wernt together they wer always there for one another and there is clear evidence that thers still something there something deep.. something layton doesnt have its more on the surface then anything else.. out of the 5 seasons of OTH it is only S4 wer we FINALLY see things goin well for Layton!!.. but we still then see a Spark between Brucus.. (window scene)!!
so i hope its BRUCUS till the end!!.. (they look so good together)
therefore Leyton Needs to Give It Up!!!

"Suddenly it was as if the roar of the crowd, the echo of the final buzzers, the cheers of my teammates were all
sounding from 1,000 miles away, and what remained in that bizarre, muffled silence was only Peyton.
The girl whose art, passion, and beauty had changed my life. In that moment, my triumph
was not a state championship, but simple clarity. The realization
that we had always been meant for each other and
every instinct to the contrary had simply been
a denial of the following truth;
I was now and would always be in love with Peyton Sawyer."
-Lucas Scott
That is all :-)

Leyton is True Love Always. I feel bad for people who don't see that and who don't feel that. Brooke and Lucas were cute but didn't have the chemistry that Peyton and Lucas have. If you believe in True Love then you believe in Leyton!!!! It is as simple as that.
Posted by: Gina | July 1, 2008 10:57 AM
Leyton NEEDS to give it up! People grow apart and so have they. They don't have the same connection as Brucas, and they are just to cheesy. Jake was so much better for peyton, and so is brooke for Lucas. Pairing them with Brooke and Jake, they become fun couples who are worth watching. Besides, what is up with Lucas and "the one"? It changes like this, and then he is with a new girl, he said brooke was the one in season three, and I believe that people that are ment to be together always find their way in the end, please consider this, instead of just going Leyton. We are a lot of Brucas fans, who really wanna see a happy ending, without the chessy coulpe Leyton. They are both the same, and that makes them boring to watch, opposits do attract, and Leyton are so similar that they become a static couple with no developments.
Posted by: Malene | July 1, 2008 10:44 AM
leyton in season 4 was soo cheesy! hope they dnt go down that road again .. although i have a feeling they will.. sigh..
& i so agree with 'lovely's post!
& how can anyone say NH doesnt even come close to the love LP shares?? they've been together thru ALOT & they are still 2gether:) i think that love & honestly in my opinion NH has a far more 'epic love' than LP that the writers are shoving down our throats!
Posted by: Rick | July 1, 2008 9:47 AM
the real topic is; is leyton the ultimate couple?
in the beginning of season5 and 1 through 4
i would of said YES!!. but now things have changed. we can clearly see peyton doesn't know want she wants. but when she finally decides what she wants it too late. like in season 1 when she finally realizes she wants be with Lucas, he is already with brooke. and season 5 when she regrets her decision of no when lucas propose to her, once again its too late. when peyton finally realizes what she wants it is usually too late. and like someone said lucas likes being chased by girls, and he clearly likes it that peyton is still madly in love with him. but now in my opinion i don't think they deserve each other. lucas and brooke caused a lot of pain to each other when she said no to him when he propose to her. and when lucas was with lindsey, and sending peyton mixed signals. and as far as im concerned leyton has lost its umph. but true love alwasy prevails. and someway somehow leyton is going to find a way to be together. but if they don't they are a big part of each other lives. and when we see them we will still see and feel a strong connection between them. because they changed each other into better people.
that's all i have to say (=
Posted by: Marissa | July 1, 2008 9:13 AM
I was so excited for Season 5 and anticipated so much because Mark talked about all these different characters and different story lines. They kids have "grown up" and have these different life styles. Other than Jamie, I don't think they played it out really well throughout the season. For SOME REASON the season became more about Leyton than anything else. Even poor Brooke on the brink of finding some kind of happiness with Owen, POOF he's gone...then comes Angie...POOF SHE'S gone. But throughout the whole season it was nothing but how Leyton is meant to be together and how everyone was PRO Leyton. The writers were basically trying to shove Leyton down our throats! Trying to find something or some excuse to secure Leyton whereas letting the couple develop naturally together. Yes, I'm a Brucas fan, but I let that ship sail a long time ago. Although I did expect some Leyton throughout the season, I was hoping to see how the characters developed on their own under different circumstances. The whole Leyton thing being played on again was soooo High School. I would have loved for Peyton to pursue more things other than Mia. She seemed to have been doing more in High School than she is now. For example The Wreckers, Jimmy Eat World etc. I loved her passion and focus then. This season...it was all about, "Is Lucas looking at me? Is he really gonna marry Lindsey?"
All in all Season 5 I have to say was the worst. Even the Dan storyline got boring. They have been trying to kill him off since Season 2. Hello?? He's immortal!! I hope Season 6 brings in a little more excitement and no more of that boring, "yes, you're the one for me...no you're not."
Posted by: Vicky | July 1, 2008 9:12 AM
I think that in order to comment on this, you have to watch all the seasons first to be able to act in a nice way.
Brooke and Lucas are not just about sex, come on. Thats ridiculous. And Peyton&Lucas are not just about pure love, yes they are in love, but why end up cheating again and again to each other, right?
I totally agree with jackie. and, in additional to that, i think that this show needs more stories not just about lucas and peyton. im starting to get tired watching them already!
Posted by: Lovey | July 1, 2008 8:54 AM
This is a pointless discussion. If you know true love, then you know who are supposed to be together, and that is Lucas and Peyton. No couple in this series comes even close to the love they share, not even Nathan and Haley. It is a love so overwhelming that it has terrified them and driven them away from each other, but it also a love unconquerable and undeniable. Their love is epic and intricate, and they've been through a lot, but at the end of the day, they know they're meant to be together and they will.
Posted by: KLL | July 1, 2008 8:52 AM
Ok, first off, Peyton and lucas were high school sweethearts.Peyton can't honestly thing after 3 years and the fact that he was about to marry another women, that they were ment to be together.Leyton should be over with now after 5 seasons of drame. I really feel Lucas and Brook should give it another try because they both seem to have matured.
Posted by: Anonymous | July 1, 2008 8:49 AM
I do think that they should end this up, i mean come on, they always hurt each other, their story lines are like soooo boring, and well whatever i just dont think that they would survive as a married couple. Hahaha! Not that i'm a brucas fan okay? I would even love lindsey and lucas, since lucas fought for her and was depressed and like really hoping for a long time and all. Anyways i would like to be lucas and brooke cause she makes him happy and his pretty girl is a responsible one. I think they would make CUTE babies haha :)

Posted by: finland | July 1, 2008 8:27 AM
See, I don't ship Leyton and I don't ship Brucas - so it doesn't matter to me!!
But honestly... Leyton sucks!
They were cute in Season 4 - really, I liked them. It was quiet, it was nice, it was cute! But it was all over when Season 5 started!
Peytons neverending lovesick and her bitchy behavior against a girl who didn't do anything to her was horrible to watch! That's not the Peyton I want to see!
Lucas is a dumbass - sorry, but there are no other word for him! He doesn't deserve any of these girls... he should end up alone to realize what he really wants and needs because it seems that no girl can make him happy or give him what he really needs.
Leyton were not able to build a relationship or ... better said ... the writers are not able to give them a relationship! There's no way that I will ever say "they are meant to be" - the only couple in OTH who's mtb is Naley.
@Fran
Actually, I loved K/D in 90210 and I'm very thankful that they ended up together. And... there is no chance that this show ended without a Cheating-couple because Kelly Taylor is the QUEEN of triangles and as well Dylan as Brandon as her endgame would make a Cheating-Couple! The only difference is that people cry for Brenda, but never cry for Dylan when Brandon stole his bf gf! Pathetic...
Posted by: Naleyfan | July 1, 2008 7:22 AM
Brucas all the way ! Leyton is one of the worst couple of the TV world ! They are sooo boring !!!
They are better friends but not lovers !
LP = cheating and hurting, it's really not THE true love !
Please they have to move on ! I can't stand them !!
Posted by: Amelie | July 1, 2008 7:12 AM
I'm tired of those two. In my opinion they bring out each others worst sides and are just too alike to make a romantic relationship work. I enjoy them so much more as just friends. And alot of people don't agree with me on this one - but i really don't feel their chemistry. It's only really intense and hot when they're fighting and can't have each other, but then when they start dating it just gets so extremely boring. Leyton is all about the chase, and I've never experienced relationships like that work. Ever.

pucas is a terrible couple..brucas rocks!
Posted by: brooooo | July 1, 2008 3:39 AM
It doesn't surprise me that you guys don't like Lucas and Peyton together as a couple. You know why? They're an acquired taste. They're very intense and very unconventional for a couple on a teen drama show. They're complicated. They have a complexity no other couple has had on a show before. They're star-crossed lovers. Brooke and Lucas had that "cutesy" factor but let's get it real here: they're done.
No one besides Peyton will EVER feel secure with Lucas. That's why he ends up cheating on every other girl he goes out with but her. They always question his feelings and for GOOD reason. I'm sorry, but when you're dating another girl, you don't tell another woman, "I love being that guy for you." He was talking about protecting her and always being there for her. Minus season five, he's always been that person who made everything all right in her life.
The reason why Brooke dumped Lucas was because they didn't have a connection. She told him: "We go days without having a real conversation and I used to miss you so much when that happened, but it never seemed like you missed me." She was right. Most days when things would go wrong Lucas would seek comfort from Peyton. He was the girl he'd let in and open to up, the person he had no barriers with. That's why without her in his life in season five he was so guarded.
But they have such a raw, intense, grounded, quiet connection and it's been apparent so many times throughout the show. Even after so much has happened between them and after Lucas told Peyton he hates her, the understanding they have for one another never died. This was obvious when he showed up at Tric in the finale. All he told her was, "It was hard seeing you again, and it's still really hard." Lucas has always been a man of grand speeches. At that minute, he didn't elaborate because he didn't need to. The "I know, I know," response and little nods from both heads was enough to tell us that these are two people who just get each other.
They will never get rid of the emotions they have for each other. They won't. There is NO WAY they can ever be friends. The only way these two will be truly happy and satisfied is by being together. Of course they'd have a lot of issues to resolve now but they can do it.
And the ONLY reason this has been drawn-out is because Mark Schwahn likes to cater to the Brooke-Lucas fan base as well. So all these Brooke-Lucas fans who are complaining you should realize he's doing it for your sake. He has to string them along and for that he's tainting the main lead of the show.
But when it comes down to it, Lucas gave his heart to Peyton. He gave himself to her in a way that he never did with Brooke or Lindsey. And I don't believe he ever got it back.
Posted by: Bookworm | July 1, 2008 3:09 AM
Leyton may have been what the writers 'planned' and 'meant to start and end with' but that doesn't change the fact that they are five seasons in and are still playing the same pointless game of angsty will-they-won't-they. Clearly they don't work together in a stable relationship since we would have seen it by now.
Basically not only are they old news (that all too often pushes more interesting storylines to the backseat) but they both have way better chemistry with other people anyway! (ie jake, brooke, etc)
Posted by: Hannah | July 1, 2008 3:05 AM
sarah is god. i agree with it all. im my opinion, i believe each show needs an angsty romance, and this show has 2. naley were the 'together forever' couple, with drama in between. while the oth camp needed a couple who would be able to bring in new relationship in order to show how much they needed to be together. brooke needed someone to show her she mattered and lucas was able to do that BUT leyton are together for more than just comfort. the bond is there, it just needs to be made by the writers in thier due time - for now...we need faith.
lots of love to all my oth crazy obssessed fan...

Posted by: LeytonAddicted86 | July 1, 2008 2:12 AM
I'm not here to bash on Leyton, but I have to go with "they need to give it up already". I am really really tired of seeing them together. And I'm not saying this because I'm a huge brucas fan, I'm saying this because I just don't feel their connection. And their storyline is so tiring. I honestly thought about stop watching the show. It just makes no sense to me, because for me, Peyton had the best chemistry with Jake. I loved them together! And just to say it, nothing goes above Brucas for me. Even if some may say they will never reunite again, that's not a reason for me to stop wishing seeing them together in the show again.
But Leyton? Not even an option for me...
Posted by: Elisa | July 1, 2008 2:04 AM
Lucas and Peyton are just meant to be.
As OTH is a teen drama..obstacles have constantly been thrown in the way of these two, and at times, some of the writing has been questionable, but i have no doubt that LP were and still are OTH's major intended couple, right from the beginning. They just have this strong connection.
That's my two cents..
Posted by: Catherine | July 1, 2008 1:58 AM
So... Leyton versus Brucas?
I would have to say that I am still hoping for Brucas. After all that's happened, I can't give up on the idea of the two together. A lot of people think that since Leyton started the series with a romantic connection, it automatically means that they're going to end in that way too. That better not be the case or at least it shouldn't. It just wouldn't make sense that after all the drama and confessions and everything else that Brucas went through, they would end things there. I'm still attached to the conversations that Lucas had about "I'm the one for you... she's the one for me... i've made two of these embarrassing speeches and they've both been with you... etcetc" i mean how could you honestly bounce back from that?? There's just too much to recover from, especially since the two grew closer.
i and even you guys can't deny the chemistry between brooke and lucas or even chad and sophia. it's a shame to let that kind of thing go to waste. the two are so cute when they have scenes together, and frankly i'm tired of brucas beating around the bush. it's like they're trying to hold back something that they just aren't allowed to show... because of peyton and because of lindsey.
i'm also caught up in what seemed like a foreshadow of brooke and lucas when she mentioned, "people who are meant to be together, always find their way in the end." oh i do hope!! [crosses fingers]
and i know, i know. brooke would never do that to peyton... so peyton just needs to move on. she's so obsessed over this whole thing. and she said herself.. that it's also just the idea of lucas... sooo... that's just not good enough for me.
oh and i do agree... lucas doesn't deserve brooke... brooke IS awesome... but i don't like lucas with anyone else sadly enough...
yay brucas!

I for 1 am Brucas fan.
Leyton for me has become depressing. Peyton only seems to want Lucas when its convenient for her. They tried and she messed it up. I guess other relationships aren't the only ones she can mess up.
We need a breathe of fresh air and for me thats Brucas.
Posted by: Coco | July 1, 2008 1:36 AM
i saw something written about lucas and peyton being better off as friends, when as far as i can tell, ever since their proposal, they suck as friends.
Before, maybe, even though they couldn't hang out much because brooke was so insecure abotu it all, which i understand, but still.
i'm a leyton fan, and i think they;re meant to be, but i also totally understand brucas fans, and i understand why people want it to end, although i disagree wholeheartedly.
Posted by: Anonymous | July 1, 2008 1:27 AM
Brooke and Lucas were just a high school romance, and Peyton and Lucas are so much more than that. Just watch everything build up to season 4. TRUE LOVE ALWAYS beats everything!
Posted by: Evan | July 1, 2008 12:56 AM
As many have said above: TLA!
Some will definitely criticize but it could be argued that the show has to do with the love between the two. I mean, granted you have your other couples, but it's as if they're the background music.
Lucas & Peyton are truly meant to be. And yes, they are on-again off-again, but when they were with other people all they did was find their ways back to each other. Brooke knew they were meant to be, even though she still had feelings for Luke. Heck, Jake wouldn't let Peyton marry him because he knew her heart still belonged to Lucas. The others each were involved with, were only distractions/obstacles. Maybe Mark thinks the only way to add drama to the show is to throw a love triangle together. And even in S5 Lindsey was involved to show them how much they still loved each other. Peyton was the bigger person and "sacrificed" her feelings for him to be happy. But there is no denying he doesn't still love her because he told her, when she was "romancing" the guy behind the counter at the opening of Clothes/Bro's TH, that he wasn't good enough. And truthfully, had Peyton not gotten angry and told him that wasn't fair to her or Lindsey, they would have gotten back together right there.
But honestly, S5 was a waste, however over time I have grown to not passionately hate the finale, because I'm pretty positive that he called Peyton.
Here's why:
-He doesn't hate her.
-He saw her "I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU" Montage.
-Then he made the decision to call her.
After he visited the Rivercourt, he realized that there was no use being with anyone else. They were meant to be! She would never stop loving him, and vice-versa. Lindsey and Brooke don't hold the significance that Peyton does. Neither of the two went through as much with Luke as Peyton has.
And off-subject: Brooke needs to be w/ Owen or Chase, get married, start a family. Lindsey just needs to stay gone. Maybe Psycho Derek/Ian can escape and take care of her! *crosses fingers*
So the bottom line: Their art matters, it's what got them there!

dear mark schwahn,
if you ever happen to read these, please remember that the majority of those who watch OTH are leyton fans, and that those who aren't always band together to make it seem like no one likes them. seriously, this whole thing makes it seem like everyone is so unhappy with the direction of the show and the destiny of leyton. but in reality, i've never met or really talked to anyone who does not truly want lucas and peyton to be together. k thanks : )
sincerely, all those in favor of leyton.
Posted by: Kels | June 30, 2008 10:44 PM
Sure in season 1 Peyton/Lucas were written to be the destined couple but that doesnt mean it should be. He has no chemistry with Peyton and they are boring. They bith need to move on, Peyton was better with Jake.
Posted by: Lisa | June 30, 2008 10:20 PM
I will try not to get into the Brucas vs. Leyton discussion...
I think Leyton will be end game.
Do I think they are "Soul Mates"? No. I think Nathan and Haley are the soulmates of OTH.
I think Lucas and Peyton are the "3rd times the charm" couple.
Compare them to Joey and Pacey from Dawson's Creek or Meredith and Derek from Grey's. Both of those couples had more shots at making it work than Lucas and Peyton.
I honestly don't care, I just want them to pick one way or the other and stick with it!! I want all the character to get their "Happily Ever After"
After all...
"Someone once told me, there's nothing wrong with fairytales, everyone ends up happily ever after."
Posted by: Katie | June 30, 2008 9:46 PM
There is one thing I have to agree with someone of you have been saying, and that is; this is really getting old.
But I'm not talking about Leyton, I'm talking about the bashing. I've been reading these comments and honestly some of these comments just made me laugh with their stupidity and immaturity.
like:
-Leyton sucks
-Leyton SUCKS ASS
-Lucas + Peyton= Puke!!!
And I'm especially getting tired of hearing that Leyton is getting old and they have had their time and it's over. IT IS NOT OVER. Trust me. And I love how it's usually BLers that do all the bashing, saying that Leyton has had their chance. Brucas have tried way more times than Leyton. Like it was mentioned, Leyton has really only been together in Season 4.
Lucas and Peyton have this connection to me that is just so amazing, and their chemistry is something you just don't see everyday. Although for Leyton fans Season 5 was probably the most heart-wrenching for us, I do believe it was needed. They just needed a little time to find their way back together, and it looks like we might just get what we have been wishing for since the beginning of last season because I think Lucas is finally seeing what Peyton has tried making him see; that they are meant for each other.
Reasons Why Leyton is simply the best:
`Because their soulmates.
`Because He wrote not one but two books about her.
`Because He made her realize that HER art mattered.
`Because she made him realize that HIS art mattered.
`Because he wanted to make her 'Peyton Scott' since seventh grade.
`Because they make salty chocolate chip cookies taste good.
`Because he is always saving her.
`Because she gave up her happiness to see him happy.
`Because they're the only ones that really get each other.
`Because she told him she was going to love him forever.
`Because he 'wanted it all' with her.
`Because he 'wants to be that guy' for her.
`Because seriously have the steamiest make-out scenes on screen.
`Because he realized in a moment in clarity that it was her he wanted beside him when all his dreams came true.
`Because when she asked him how he knew it was going to work, he said 'cause I feel it in my heart'.
`Because he told her he wanted her beside him when he dreams came true, and when they didn't come true.
`Because it's 'still really hard'.
`Because in the end, we all know it's going to be Peyton he choses. Because he's going to realize that he would 'always be in love with Peyton Sawyer'.

sit back and enjoy the ride and I may get sad or upset and want to quit but their love always pulls me back in. I don’t think I would love them as much if it wasn’t Chad and Hilarie playing them so beautifully. They have amazing chemistry and are both amazing actors who portray the essence of Lucas and Peyton so well!
Posted by: Ashleigh | June 30, 2008 9:34 PM
I can't believe this is even a rational question. Are Lucas and Peyton meant to be together? Hands down, 100%, has never been another option. Every other person thrown in their way like Brooke or Jake has been merely a distraction from the obvious truth - Lucas and Peyton are meant to be together. From the pilot, it was clear cut that these two individuals came together because that's the way fate had always intended it to be.
So they have had their shares of ups and downs, what epic romance has not? It would be immensely boring had they been together this whole time and faced no issues. I'm glad they've gone through all that they have, because it solidifies to us as fans - and in the hearts of Lucas and Peyton that they truly are meant to be together, that there could be no one else who stands a chance against True Love Always.
Sarah - You are the only one I agree with. Obviously, these two will never move on from each other until they give themselves a shot at what they know in their hearts, they want. And I know once they do get back together, there is no other place they will want to be. They are it for each other. Period.
As Mark Schwahn said: "From the pilot, we designed a world where Lucas and Peyton were meant to be together." Those aren't words to be taken lightly. Every actor on the show has said Lucas and Peyton are that "meant to be couple" and every character on the show has been made to see the light.
Lucas said it himself, "I was now and would always be in love with Peyton Sawyer."
It's been defined since the beginning, and these two had effortless chemistry. Nothing else could ever compare.

Leyton reminds me of a 90's couple that was just as horrible to watch on TV. There was a couple that goes by the name of Dylan McKay and Kelly Taylor on a TV show called 90210 that had a triangle very similar to the one we've seen on One Tree Hill.
I truly hope the writers of One Tree Hill have a better ending than end the show with two who started the show by cheating on girlfriend and best friend.
I hope we never have to relieve a moment like that on TV again.
Brooke and Lucas should reunite and prove that selfless love will win in the end.
It was not a good message to send out to young kids when 90210 ended their show with the "cheating" couple and I hope OTH has taken a lesson from that.
Posted by: .K. | June 30, 2008 6:44 PM
This is all hogwash. Leyton is meant to be and always has been meant to be. They're just dragging the will they or won't they storylines out way too long because that's what TV shows do. Wasting all last season on Lucas and some girl no one cares about (Lindsey) was a slap in the face to ALL fans of the show, especially the Leytoners. Most people were united in being disgusted by that. Now, there is only ONE satisfying outcome that will make the show worthwhile and that is having Lucas and Peyton finally end up together. If they waste it on Brucas or Lucas and Peyton with random characters then well over half the show's fan base will be very upset. I was disappointed and heartbroken at the end of Dawson's Creek when Joey and Dawson did not end up together, and Peyton and Lucas are 1000x more meant to be than they ever were. So I hope they get it right and give us one last season with Leyton together and happy so that the fans actually get to see that for once.

I completely agree with Jackie. I have never liked Leyton because I do not support cheating AT ALL. I could never get behind them even if I wanted to because of this. That's why I hate the Peyton character. She never knows what the hell she wants until the other person is happy. She broke Brucas up, twice and now she broke Lucas and Lindsey up. That's all she's good for and it's seriously annoying. Their time has passed and Peyton really needs to move on. Lucas is so much better with Brooke or Lindsey.
Posted by: Caitlin | June 30, 2008 6:39 PM
From the time I heard Mark Schwann say that he knew how this series was going to end from the moment he started it, I knew that he definitely had a bunch of tricks up his sleeve. If any of you have seen the very first episode of OTH, then you should know that Lucas and Peyton have always had a connection, even before they started dating. When Nathan and Lucas are playing 1 on 1 for the first time, and he looks at her after the game and they have this moment, you can tell that they are meant to be together. Was I a huge fan of Lucas and Peyton... for the longest time, no. I actually liked him better with Brooke, but then I realized that he does always save her and she saves him in a way too! So that tells me that fate brought them together in a bet in the first episode and that it will bring them together by the end as well!
Posted by: Brooke Powers | June 30, 2008 6:36 PM
Leyton are so boring...they should totally move on. Peyton should try to make her life without Lucas. They tried to be together twice and it didn't work at all...why would it work now?
Lucas deserves someone better than Peyton :D
Posted by: brucasfan | June 30, 2008 6:29 PM
Lucas and Peyton need to give it up already. Their storylines are so tired, and just because they started out with a connection five seasons ago doesn't mean they should still be together. LP does nothing for me.
Posted by: Richyl | June 30, 2008 6:19 PM
In response to a previous comment about Naley, yes, they did have some problems, but it wasn't the same continuous problem. They really have only had two events happen (season2 and season5) but you knew they were going to make it through, and you KNEW that they loved each other. With Leyton, they don't know what they want. One minute they want each other, the next they don't. Honestly, it's getting tiring. I'm personally a Brucas fan, but I'm not going to mind all THAT much if Leyton ended up together. It's just the rollercoaster ride they are on. If they're going to end up together, let us see them in a functional relationship. Even in season 4 they had their problems. Honestly, after watching seven years of the Clana relationship (Smallville), I'm tired of it. No way do I want to continue watching the same script with a different cast.
Posted by: Livia | June 30, 2008 6:13 PM
ok Sarah and Mia I know you haven't seen seasons 2-4 so just to let you know that i'm gonna be posting some spoilers here.
I've said it soooo many times. That Peyton belongs with Jake because near the end of season 1 to near the end from season 3 the only boy she truly cared bout was Jake. I mean she cried when he left in season 2 and i don't think that Peyton has cried about Lucas not once from what I can recall at this minute. And when Peyton's dad gave that speech in season 3 about love I think? who did she turn to. Not Lucas but Jake. It really shows where her heart lies. AndI think if Jake was to marry some other girl Peyton would have said something at the wedding.
Posted by: David | June 30, 2008 6:09 PM
LEYTON = TLA
Throughout all five of the seasons I've seen the chemistry between the two of them. I truly believe they complete each other. The show started that way, and I think it should end that way as well. Yes, Lucas & Brooke had some happy times, but if he was all that complete with Brooke he wouldn't have cheated on her on more than one occassion with the same person: Peyton. And yes, Peyton had some happy times with Jake as well, but you could see how much she still loved Lucas. I believe Peyton and Lucas are soulmates, and they need to work things out FOR good this time...their breakup was so unbelievable to me in the first place
Posted by: Lindsay | June 30, 2008 6:04 PM
Lucas and Peyton need to give it up already. Their storylines are so tired, and just because they started out with a connection five seasons ago doesn't mean they should still be together.
Now, many seasons later, we’re STILL muddling through the will-they-or-won’t-they Lucas/Peyton angst, and frankly, I’m tired of it. If they were meant to make it work, they would have made it work already! They had their shot as a couple several times, and it never lasted. Lucas was ready to MARRY someone else this season -- it’s time for Peyton to find someone else, too. These two only seem to bring each other (and everyone around them) pain and grief. I think they need to move on.
Posted by: Daniela | June 30, 2008 6:03 PM
leyton needs to give it up because YES I AM A BRUCAS FAN!!!! I think BRUCAS has way more chemistry and a connection than leyton every will. Look at the way they look at each other. They are always there for each other and will be endgame! I love Hilary and the character of Peyton, but lucas and peyton together are really boring. sorry, not trying to offend, just my opinion!
Posted by: Jessica | June 30, 2008 5:40 PM
I think Lucas and Peyton are ment to be together! They were ment to be together fromt he begging! They are the perfect couple!
Posted by: Kenzie | June 30, 2008 5:32 PM
You really don't need 5 paragraph for this one. Peyton and lucas obviously still love each other no matter what, so what if they don't want to move on, so what if they hide their love for each other, the bottom line is they both choose to love each other back no matter the situation. Lindsay is a smart girl she read the book and figured it out,so did haley.
Posted by: Anonymous | June 30, 2008 5:18 PM
Well, im not a big fan of Leyton. Im a HUGGEEE Fan of Brucas. I would rather have Brooke and Lucas be together. But if that doesnt have I want Lucas and Peyton to be together. Im not a big fan of Lucas and Lindsey.
Posted by: Cyndi | June 30, 2008 5:15 PM
What annoys me the most is that when people say that Leyton should give up they are automatically Brucasers. Or that we can't talk about Leyton without it being Brucas vs. Leyton.
I am a Brucas fan but truthfully I don't want Brooke and Lucas together. It just doesn't seem real anymore. They don't have that connection anymore. (they did, they truly DID, but they don't anymore). They have created such a GREAT friendship that I can't imagine them being more than friends.
I am also a leyton fan. (I am more leyton these days then Brucas). But a storyline can only repeat itself so many times before it gets boring. I will be happy if leyton gets together, I really will be. But if they can't make it work then they need to give up. Leyton gets ONE more try. And then I am done with Leyton. If they can't finally make it work then they should just stop trying. Enough is enough. Yes Leyton started out as soulmates but things happen they fell in love with other people and as time past they are growing farther and farther apart. Yes, they still love each other in Season 5. But maybe that love they have for each other is just because of what they MEANT to each other, and how important they are to each other. Maybe they aren't really IN love with each other. Or maybe they are. But if they are still IN love with each other then they should get one more try and it should work. If they aren't IN love with each other then it doesn't work and they move on.
Finally (I wasn't going to comment on Brucas or Jeyton but now I feel I have too). This is a thread about LEYTON not about weither Brucas is better or Jeyton is better. This is about whether or not Leyton is meant to be. Don't plain out dis Brucas or Jeyton(Brucas sucks, Jeyton sucks). And you shouldn't dis Leyton either just because Brucas is better. If you are going to talk about them, us them as an example. Lucas/Peyton fell in love with Brooke/Jake proving that Leyton isn't meant to be. OR Peyton was still in love with Lucas while she was with Jake(end of season 3) proving she will ALWAYS love Lucas. This is about Leyton. Not Brucas or Jeyton. If you are going to talk about them at least be polite about it, because this is a thread about LEYTON.
Posted by: Amanda | June 30, 2008 5:09 PM
I think they should move on! Not because Im a Brucas fan but because the story line is getting old between them! They dragged it so much this season!!!! I think they need to bring back Jake. I personally liked Peyton with Jake together. They really had something good. Then this next season we hopefully wont have to hear Peyton complain about Lucas if she is with Jake!!!!

I don't why you girls decided to do this Topic. You know how it's going to go. Brucas fans coming in to bash. Leyton fans coming in to defend. It would have been easier to go w/ another OTH topic, because this one will always end in the same way. lol!!
Posted by: Anonymous | June 30, 2008 4:44 PM
Every relationship has its ups and down. Leyton forever. They both love each other that should count for something. Nathan and Healy did not have a perfect relationship but they love each other.
Posted by: Anonymous | June 30, 2008 4:44 PM
LEYTON NEEDS TO GIVE UP!!!!!!! END IT NOW….PLEASE JUST END IT
This love story has been played-OUT ever since it started. I never jumped on the LP ship just because they don’t make sense to me. Love has to be equal, meaningful, and at the perfect time. Let me say leyton has never been those things. In the beginning of season 1 Luke had a crush on Peyton. He knew nothing about this girl but was infatuated with her (wow never watched this kind of storyline before). Peyton didn’t reciprocate those feelings at all; she basically blew him off and was rude to him for no good reason. Love at first sight?? I would say not. There was a scene where Lucas lets Peyton know how he feels about her and she basically tells him that she only wanted sex and he ruined the moment, then leaves him standing there looking like a fool. This is what pisses me off because here is the Perfect time for Peyton to be with Lucas and she blows it. From there I knew this wasn’t the couple for me because they played games, and Peyton was going to be the girl that never knows what she wants.
Then Lucas moves on to Brooke, I want to say how refreshing it was to see these two as a couple. I saw changes in each of them that I thought I would never see. Luke brought Brooke down to earth and Brooke made Lucas confident and actually fun. At first it was rough but they both turned into characters I liked. This was a story of two different worlds coming together and trying to make it in a world that didn’t see them together. This was then ruined by a cheating Lucas & Peyton. Now how am I supposed to like a couple that cheats on a great person like Brooke. Brooke wasn’t perfect but she always cared deeply for her friends. Even when she did something bad she always took resposibility and tried to make up to the people she hurt. Lucas and Peyton are toxic to me at this point, they were the bad guy and it made sick to look at them when they were on screen together.
OK by season 2 I’m over them cheating, because both Lucas and Peyton has once again established a friendship with Brooke and with each other. I start to enjoy the journey that they were taking each character, and especially the friendship between Brooke & Peyton. Lucas has a talk with Nathan, He figures out Lucas had been hiding his heart and that he needed to tell the girl how he feels. Lucas now has a choice and ends up saying Brooke is in his heart and he had been lying to himself. Lucas came up with this conclusion all by himself; he’s open to pick Brooke or Peyton and He PICKED BROOKE! Lucas spends the whole season pining over Brooke Davis and having the biggest build up to the season finale where he finally says “I want to be with you Brooke” Season 3 happens with Lucas once again aching to be Brooke’s boyfriend, Brooke writing love letters to Lucas the whole summer, him making her apart of his world, Them saying there first “I Love You’s” to each other, Luke declaring his love for Brooke for about 8 times the whole season. All that gets shot to hell with one kiss, a kiss that was initiated by Peyton and meant more to her than to Lucas.
Brooke & Lucas are over and here is the perfect opportunity for Luke & Peyton to be together. Still I see Peyton more into Lucas then he’s into her. She tells him she loves him and he says OH and mumbles something about them being friends. It then takes a pep talk with skills and Brooke pushing him towards Peyton for him to “realize” she’s the one. All in one episode this has happened no build up just its LP so take it. Hell no! Once again you want me to accept a couple that completely caused heartache and pain to Brooke. Love is not selfish, so how can I like a selfish couple like LP. My god was it the worst watching these two together. It made me realize they both had no personality in their relationship and that they actually needed Brooke in their lives to give them some.
Season 5 happens and I knew LP wouldn’t be together because let’s face it; LP doesn’t have what it takes to make things work. They always let themselves come between them. But to my surprise they hardly made it a year in a relationship and they’ve only seen each other twice within that year. How am I to see that as true love or even “epic” as the writers say? Ha ha, I still laugh when they say Lucas and Peyton are epic. So Lucas & Peyton breaks up because Lucas proposes to her and she says someday because she loves being a mail boy. I’m sorry but the way Peyton acted and backstabbed her best friend to get Lucas. You would think she would say yes to his proposal. Again 3 years later Peyton still doesn’t know what she wants. Peyton wasn’t willing to give up her future to be with Lucas because she didn’t want to resent him. Her words not mine! Lucas then goes to New York because finally his dream of being a writer has come true. He calls Brooke to share that moment with him, and confides in her. By the end of the night he kisses Brooke and confuses the hell out of her. We then see Brooke admit that she would have given up everything for Lucas, which was a lot more than Peyton had. She ends up going into business with her mother to cover up her hurt.
3 years later Lucas is in a relationship with Lindsey, a woman who he spent 2 years with. Peyton then comes back thinking that she is entitled to Lucas, and expects him to drop everything to be with her. And what a surprise they end up cheating again. Lucas now knows he can have Peyton but he chooses to propose to Lindsey. He even makes it to the alter and says “I DO” to her. OH but once again Lucas is hiding his heart and she leaves him. Does Lucas go and find Peyton and tell her he wants her? NO, he finds Lindsey instead, and says he will wait for her and then tells Peyton he will get Lindsey back. What Kind of relationship is this, LP is so unhealthy together. Its gives me a headache just think about their history. The fact is there horrible people when there together and they need to end it for good. How could they be meant to be when they can never find the right time to be together, and they obviously don’t want the same things in life. As I watched seasons 1-5 all I could see is how they’re not meant to be. There on my list of the worse couple in TV history. They were never the ultimate couple on OTH and they will never be.
GIVE UP LEYTON! GIVE UP! GIVE UP! END IT ONCE AND FOR ALL!!!!
Posted by: Michelle | June 30, 2008 4:39 PM
Leyton needs to give it up.
They saw each other 2-3 times in a year while they were together. I rest my case.
Posted by: CM | June 30, 2008 4:31 PM
I guess LP do have people talking and People actually put their time to bash them or even start a topic on them. Means they are doing what their suppose to do. It's drama live w/ it. If you don't like them move on and talk about something else. If there was no Lucas and Peyton. OTH wouldn't be the same and all you guys know that. You won't even be arguing about this. Mark wants them and they seem to have BIG fanbase so let them be. They will be going back and forth like they do every other tv show couples. Look at Grey's M & D or even Smallville Clana or back in the 90210 K & D, D & B, B & K, etc... It happens. In the end the couple gets together or they don't.
From what I've seen about Lucas and Peyton they only really really got together in S4 and from what we know S5 they didn't have any closure and it doesn't look like they will because it seems like they belong together, because after so many years and you STILL FEEL THAT LOVE FOR EACH OTHER. That connection & love won't go away, and how the break up went it's given there's these back and forth time thing, because that was dumb break up on the writers part. It made no sense and was just Lazy writing.
So Like I said Peyton & Lucas keep making people talk, so it must be true at they are meant to be. All I see from an outsider at doesn't really care for who gets together. I just see other ships that root for another couple just showing their bitterness.

If these comments are supposed to be "civil and respect everyone's opinions" then how come people are allowed to post things such as "Leyton SUCK ASS" and "LEYTON SUCKS!"
People are entitled to their personal opinions but voicing it in such a way is highly disrespectful! Especially to the creator, writers and actors.
I think those are The CW Source should have known better than to post such a highly argued about topic. Or at least monitor or censor the comments posted.
Posted by: Disrespectful | June 30, 2008 4:23 PM
I am also under the opinion that Lucas and Peyton should not be with each other. I agree that they were set up in the beginning to get together, but other people entered the situation and changed things around.
When they first got together and Lucas was still with Brooke. When Brooke found out, Peyton then had her chance to get with Lucas for real. I understand why she didn't because she didn't wanna rub it in Brooke's face nor did she want to hurt Brooke any more. When Lucas and Brooke were both single later, Peyton did not take advantage because she was so into Jake.
It seems to me that every time Lucas was with someone, Peyton wanted him, but when he was single, Peyton was fine with being just friends.
Then when Lucas and Peyton finally got together, everything should have been fine. Then the whole proposal thing happens and they broke up. In my opinion, Peyton had three years to make some sort of effort to let Lucas know she wanted to be with him. Just letting him leave signified that she was ok with it being over. She could have called, emailed, visited Tree Hill, anything to tell Lucas that she still wanted him. In Lucas' defense, he did call to invite her to the book signing. Peyton assumed that Lucas was with Lindsay instead of finding out the truth for herself. Then she returned to Tree Hill thinking Lucas was sitting there pining for her.
If Peyton really wanted Lucas, you would think at some point in those THREE years, she would have done something.
I think it's time for both to move on.
Posted by: Erica | June 30, 2008 4:22 PM
ok first of all leyton really does need to end. Just because they dated in high school nd loved eachother doesnt mean 4 years later everything needs to be the same. Im tired of waiting for them to finally be together i think peyton needs someone else and so does lucas.
Posted by: carly | June 30, 2008 4:16 PM
I don't understand how some people could claim they watch all 5 season and say brooke and lucas were happy together, that's not true. They were never happy, lucas always had a thing for peyton and brooke always knew it, this made her very insecure. If she sees peyton and lucas standing 5 feet apart, she would get mad at lucas, even before lucas cheated on her with peyton.
The break up storyline with leyton did not make any sense. The reason for the break up was just silly. When haley wanted to go after her dreams nathan let her go because he loved her, he did not want to take that away from her, and haley went knowing that it could be the end of their marriage, they did not hook up with other people. Unlike nathan, lucas is a bit selfish, in fact peyton did say within a year, she did not say no to marriage.
peyton is a good person, when lucas said he would move to LA she told him no because nathan and healey needed his help and whitey believed in him.
I understand that every relationship has its ups and downs. Nathan and haley relationship had ups and down since season 1 and they still manage to find themselves back together. So I don’t understand why some people think that a relationship has to be perfect otherwise move on. Also two people don’t necessary have to be soul mates to be together, it’s really how they feel about each other. Its about two people loving each other back. leyton obviously has such connection.
Posted by: Anonymous | June 30, 2008 4:09 PM
I have been a hardcore Leyton fan since the beginning and those two have such a deep emotional connection between them that nothing can compare to it. When they are with each other, they act like themselves instead of these pod-like people. Lucas in season 5 was not the Lucas I loved from seasons 1-4. I think he was hurt so much by not being with Peyton that he became a shell of himself and he was hiding with Lindsey and his true feelings for Peyton came out in his second book. And watching Peyton was like watching a totally different character. She deeply regreted her saying "someday" to his proposal and carrying around that regret changed her into something she wasn't. Lucas and Peyton bring out the best in each other and I am hoping that Mark and the writers get there acts together and finally put Leyton back on track.
Posted by: Amanda | June 30, 2008 4:08 PM

Posted by: Lisa | June 30, 2008 4:03 PM
I'm a BP fan first and foremost so while I don't particularily like LP together I can understand it (and see great chemistry). Lucas's realtionship with Peyton was kind of the only one working (nice contrast to the destructive hell that was BL).
So while I really wished BP would just end up together and forget all about Lucas...but sadly this is Tree Hill were Lucas Scott's love life is like the top priority *sigh* So I really hope he just puts LP together for good and shifts the focus to other things (BP friendship *hint* lol) because it's quite obvious that they will end up together.
Posted by: Elisa | June 30, 2008 3:57 PM
Here we go again...
Brucas fans making sure they get their opinion heard *sigh*
LP are soulmates. There's no question about it. The only people who don't want to see it are Brucas fans AKA Chad/Sophia fans who can't get over the fact they will never get back together as they have both moved on with their respective partners.
LAME!
Posted by: Eva | June 30, 2008 3:56 PM
I love how the BLers, Come in here and bash Leyton because they think Brucas has a chance LOL!! LOL!! When they know BL is never happening. BLers need to get over BRUCAS! I see it's the same people posting the same comments, but with different name. At least be real and using different comments. No the same ones.
Posted by: anonymous | June 30, 2008 3:49 PM
leyton needs to stop, like seriously. i don't think i can stand another stupid thing like that. like when they tried to put tension between naley, it failed. every time they put leyton together it fails so stop already! Brucus all the way!
Posted by: Shannon | June 30, 2008 3:45 PM
Leyton= dysfunctional. They are so dry and cheesey. Their relationship hasnt worked out so why would it now. Atleast Brucas worked. Peyton was in love with the idea of being in love with him. That isnt true love at all. Both need to get on with their lives. Their obviously not meant to be so why waste time. Yeah they might have been meant to be if only the pilot was aired. LP doesnt stand a chance against BL! LP are like Dawson and Joey, better off as friends.
Posted by: Amber | June 30, 2008 3:33 PM
Leyton forever!! They were made for each other, literally. Brucus makes for a great friendship but when romance enters the picture their relationship turns into a threesome....Leybrookus, and his love for Peyton ultimately shines through. Why would anyone that likes Brooke WANT to put her character through that again? They didnt work then and its unlikely they would now. Brooke is a Leyton fan.
Posted by: julie | June 30, 2008 3:31 PM
Leyton needs to be together because of their obvious chemistry and true love for each other, despite Lucas's bullheadedness.

Brooke and Lucas are the ultimate couple

LEYTON SUCKS!
After 5 seasons of this show I am so tired of them. They do NOT belong together and it's very obvious after 5 years. Give it up and MOVE ON.
Peyton was so much better when she was with Jake. And Lucas well the only girl we actually seen him want and go after without having to be told be everyone in Tree Hill is Brooke Davis.
I'm sure Leyton will get back together in S6 but hopefully it will give them closure for good. Mark got gold with a realistic couple like Brucas and I hope he knows that in the end.
Posted by: KJ | June 30, 2008 3:24 PM
LEYTON needs to GIVE IT UP ALREADY.
they are over and done with there is no chemistry. i agree with jackie...lucs has obviously proved that he was and can move on with out peyton heck the guy was at the altar with another girl saying i do not thinking twice about it. i think peyton is the one who needs to give it up and move on.. so lucas can get back together with.......brooke!!!!!
BRUCAS=<3
they definetly are not the shows main couple either that honor(or not) would go to nathan and haley!
Posted by: Mary Ann | June 30, 2008 3:11 PM
Leyton SUCK ASS
They have ruined the last 2 years of the show for me. And no, im not a Brucas fan, im actually one of the only Laley fans out there. But id much rather Brucas than Pucas thats for sure.
The constant whining this season has done my head in. This is One Tree Hill, not the Leyton show which it has turned into.
Posted by: Em | June 30, 2008 3:10 PM
i am SICK AND TIRED of leyton being shoved down our throats they have no chemistry and the writers just need to give up and realize that just because the were together in high school doesnt mean that they willl or should be together for the rest of their lives. seriously how many high school relationships last or are still together after 5 years.
if you look at the years and seasons technically brooke and lucas were together for longer than lucas and peyton and i think that brucas should end up together.
do i think the writers originally set up a world to where lucas and peyton would be together..yes but then brooke and jake came along and brooke and luke had AMAZING chemistry and so did jake and peyton! things change and the writers should see that!!!! basically im just sick of leyton!
Posted by: Missy | June 30, 2008 3:01 PM
LP needs to give it up. I mean I know Mark loves them but he is making Lucas looks like he doesnt know what he wants and Peyton look like she is desperate. No I am not saying BL should be together either, I am just saying LP's chasing and cheating should have stopped in High school. Now LP both look like jerks.
Posted by: Tara | June 30, 2008 2:53 PM
Leyton Needs to Give It Up!!!
I love Peyton, but don't like her with Lucas.They are always saying how they are meant to be but as people above have said,if they are meant to be then they should have them together already.Just quit tiptoeing around the issue. Also wouldn't it be easier to keep them together for longer than...um... a day and work with actual relationship issues and stop bringing new characters for each of them and just pick already are they going to be together or apart once and for all.

I think Lucas and Peyton should just call it a day. I'm tired of having their relationship shoved down my throat like they were meant to be. Clearly they weren't or they would have been together in season one.
I think Brooke and Lucas are a way better match. When they were together, they balanced each other out and they were fun to watch as opposed to all this moping Peyton has done this season. Give the woman a break, she keeps getting all these depressing storylines thrown her way and I honestly think if this was a real person, she'd be in a mental home or something.

I don't know. They make me torn. I really like Lucas and Brooke, but I kind of ship anyone I suppose. Do I think they were set up to be together, written that way? Probably, mostly. But then I think as the show progressed and they saw both of them with other people, I think it made it more complicated even for the writers to deal with. Lucas is one of those characters who has these insane connections with people, so it would be easy to feel like they are all destined to be with him.
But I really hate them both pining over each other, silently and not so silently. At this point now, either put them together or keep them apart. It is so annoying to watch! The only thing I am certain of is that it is certainly time to put the will-they-won't-they to rest.

I dont care who lucas ends up with really but im pretty sick of leyton...
although i do think they are gonna be end game because it was set up that way sense the begining , even when lucas was with someone else it ALWAYS came down to lucas and peyton.
I think he needs to give it up, it obviously didnt work out the 1000 times they tried so i think they should give it a rest. Im tired of this stupid thing that has been dragging on for a whole five seasons, but im sure it will go on in season 6..
ill be fine with them if they just had the be ok and not have anyone get inbetween them buti doubt that will happen because nobody is allowed to be happy in Tree Hill..
So even though i want this thing to end it wont..
but i rather have lucas and peyton than brooke and lucas cause that just dosent work at all (id rather have lindsay though :)...)

Is that really Sarah?! Didn't know you had it in you to not even have a jab at them ... though when reading your part, I totally have a sarcastic voice narrating.
Mia, I don't know if I'm spoiling, I really don't think I am, but when Leyton were together in season 4, they were so nauseating to watch together. The cheese factor was off the charts oh my goodness. So them not knowing what to do if they end up together would've been nice.
I guess I agree with Sarah the most because them with any other people just sucks for the other person and the other person deserves better. Peyton and Lucas deserve each other and I think the only reason I wouldn't want them to get together is because when they do they are so sickenly sweet and cheesy. Otherwise get them together and end the misery of every single character that has to deal with their drama.

Lucas and Peyton are the perfect couple and should be together, in the last few years the series showed us that they are soulmates for life.
Only the writers should now make a decision for next year if they will be together because if they don't they both should move on in there lives.
Posted by: pascal | June 30, 2008 1:31 PM
IDK. Jackie, Peyton & Lucas were only a couple for Real. In S4. Brooke and Lucas are the couple that had their shot as a couple several times and never lasting.
All I know is that From watching this series from S1-5 Lucas and Peyton are meant for each other in my mind. I don't go into this Lucas + girl crap. Coming from NH fan. I do see why LP are it for each other because of that whole YAM! thing they keep bringing back up. I've only see Peyton affect him like no else can. For some reason he can't let her go, from him and Brooke always fighting about Peyton or him always playing her hero. I can see the friendship, connection, love and bond they share because that's what they keep showing us. And after all these years, for their love to still be there, idk, that means something. I think after Lucas saying everything we both had before us was nothing more then Denial and we are always meant for each other and love each other always. I'm sorry there's no going back from that. If Nathan ever said that about Haley, I would stop right there and then and can't root for them anymore. I was at first a BL fan but then all this nonsense just keeps coming right back to Lucas and Peyton. So they might as well be together, because in my eyes they are it for each other and no matter what relationship they are in together. It will always come back to them.
Mia, Lucas and Peyton were together in S4 and they worked, and they were happy. They did know what to do w/ themselves. LOL!!
From watch is S4 and how LP worked as a couple and everything. I believe S5 was just a joke, because of the way they broke up, I don't even know why or how they broke up to tell you the truth, because 505 proposal was not who LP are. And I believe that was the writers or Mark's way of nothing else to come up w/ to separate Lucas and Peyton, because that was a LAME attempt. I also believe it was because LP are made for each other and they get each other so well that there was no way in braking them up, so the writers went to the Lame excuse way. Which is sad IMO!
All I know is in S6 Lucas better stick to his Pick and no more of this nonsense back and forth or love triangles. I'm really tried of all this crap. If spoilers are right and from the pictures I've seen of the couple. Lucas better stay w/ her and not fck up again. I hope to god the writers don't do an love triangles again. Let the couple have their own problems, family, jobs, ect.... NO FREAKIN' TRIANGLES.
Posted by: Susan | June 30, 2008 1:12 PM
Whatever. I could careless about LP or LB. Nathan/Haley are the main couple of the show and the only reason I bother watching.
Who's been together for nearly the whole run of the show? Who's had two weddings? Who has a child? Lucas and Peyton or Lucas and Brooke don't have any of that and they shouldn't even bother. They're not Nathan and Haley.
Nathan/Haley pwns them all.

i dont agree with jackie at all. brooke and lucas will never have anything romantic ever again. so SORRY BRUCAS FANS...its never going to work out.
sophia bush agreed to keep doing one tree hill if her and chad had no romantic ties on the show. (if anyone remembers they were married) so keep wishing brucas fans but like i said before its never gonna work out.
as for leyton. mark creats these 2 characters to always have something for one another. in the season 5 finale its shown when haley reads the list and it says all but 1 year how he wanted to be with peyton. OBVIOUSLY peyton did screw up in LA by not giving lucas an answer. you can see she paid for it all season 5 with the whole lindsay thing. ummm and did anybody catch the smirk lucas gave when he read the poem peyton wrote for him at the rivercourt? he does still truely love her. i mean comon he wrote his first and second book based on her!!!!

Initially, during the first season, it was very clear that the show was set up to have Lucas and Peyton to be together. And I will agree that during that first season, they did have a bond that would link them to be together.
But after that first season, something shifted in their relationship. After the introduction of the beloved triangle of One Tree Hill, attitudes changed, feelings changed, relationships REALLY changed.
After this last season, we've seen Lucas move on to someone else, fall in love with someone else. I feel that if their relationship was going to stick, it would have been "stuck" by now. Stuck with super glue so that nothing could make it budge (well, except maybe nail polish remover). Anyway, I feel that Peyton should move on from Lucas. They're just not the same people that they were in high school. And if they were to try and be in a relationship, I feel that they would be trying to capture what they had in the past. Live like they did five years ago. They need to live in the present and for the future. I don't see that happenening.
And the term "soulmate"... Dawson's Creek really made me dislike that word. That word was used over and over again for Dawson and Joey. Whenever I see that word..I cringe...
Okay, back on topic..in my opinion, the Leyton scenario should just not be a part of the picture anymore. Friends, yes...romantically involved..no thanks.

If you want to go with a boring, and unrealistic over done relationship look at naley. I love them, believe me, but the reason I love this show so much is because I can relate it so much to my own life. I see so much of myself in Peyton, and I have been rooting for her and lucas since season 1.
I recently just went back and watched seasons 1 through 5 and got a much better understanding about their relationship. They were set up to be together, and it wouldn't seem right for mark to not resolve their relationship by the end of the series.
so what if peyton spent season 5 crying over lucas? we all make mistakes, and she made one when she didn't say yes to his proposal. she lost her way over the four years she spent away from tree hill. it hurts pretty bad when the person you love can't love you back, especially if they had loved you before. even more especially that he wrote an entire book about it. Yeah it's a tv show, and they could have made it so she got over it and moved on. But in reality, no one moves on from a love like that quickly, especially if you're simple meant to be.
and lucas and peyton ARE meant to be together, plain and simple. their chemistry and love is electrifying as well as heart felt and believable to the audience. i love lucas and peyton together and season 5 was definitely hard to get through, especially watching peyton struggle so much and lucas who as brooke said is "clearly lying to his own heart." if leyton doesn't end up together, don't you think season 5 was kind of a waste?
everyone should know, especially girls, just BEING together is not that simple. you'd be lucky if relationships worked so easily.
i'm anxious to see what happens!!! I'm rooting for leyton-true love always : )
Posted by: kelsey | June 30, 2008 12:53 PM
i am a brucas fan...i think that it is about time for peyton and lucas to stop trying. peyton+luke=PUKE!!! everyone was so happy when lucas and brooke were together and peyton and jake were together. i have been watching this show since the beginning, and i realized that peyton just messes everything up. lucas and brooke were so cute and happy together, then peyton had to come and screw everything up. that is peytons job on the show to ruin everything. she ruined lucas and brook, and she ruined lucas and lindsey. she definitely isnt making lucas happy so she should just stop trying to get with him, and realize that it is brook and lucas that belong together...BRUCAS <333
Posted by: miranda | June 30, 2008 12:43 PM
I don't Know what Jackie means or is talk about that they be even better with other people than they were together. Because If I remember correctly all Jake did was make Peyton cry (hate S2 w/ a Passion) and she was not the Peyton we all love and know. Jake w/ Peyton is another Peyton I've never seen she's not who she is. When she's w/ Lucas (S4) Peyton is who she is. Peyton when she was w/ Jake was like a 40 year women stuck in her room all day and never coming out. All Jake/Jenny did was turn her into someone she wasn't and was too isolated, they acted like some old married couple stuck together because Peyton couldn't be w/ who she belongs to. Lucas and Peyton get each other like no one else can, He makes her complete and they inspire each other w/ everything. "Their Art Matters It's What Gets Them There" and that connection and bond they share is beautiful and nothing can compare to it (518 the only scene they shared should prove how much Peyton gets Lucas and that connection and love they have). And all Lucas and Brooke were constantly fighting about Peyton and Brooke's insecurities were always a problem. So I've never seen that Relationship either, because Brucas was nothing more then physical attempt in my eyes. Their fighting was always annoying. Also like Lucas said in S5 w/ his Book quote from the first one. "Suddenly it was as if the roar of the crowd, and the cheers of my team mates were all sounding from a thousand miles away, and what remained in that bizzare muffled silence was only Peyton, the girl whose art and passion and beauty had changed my life. In that moment, my triumph was not a state championship but simple clarity, the realization that we'd always been meant for each other and every instinct to the contrary had simply been a denial of the following truth: I was now and always would be in love with Peyton Sawyer."
Posted by: Ash | June 30, 2008 12:41 PM
I agree with everything Jackie said, Leyton needs to move on because they always putting someone in the middle of their crap and like always Peyton messes up the relationship when she could've went after Lucas when he was solo.
Posted by: Marc | June 30, 2008 12:35 PM
I think that they will end up together anyways. They were set to be together since the beginning and will be in the end. Brooke only inserted herself in the relationship and got herself burnt because of it. Whatever happened to her, she brought it on herself.
However I am growing tired of Lucas rushing into the first open pair of arms (or legs) whenever his heart is broken. He is handsome but that doesn't give him the right to have women as his playthings.
Posted by: Boo | June 30, 2008 12:31 PM
1st of all Nathan and Hayley are the super couple of this show.
2nd I'm so annoyed with Lucas and Peyton I can't stand to watch them. Mark please have them move on to other people already. I don't care who but those 2 are tired. Lucas is such a whiner and Peyton has a great life get over the High School crap already. Your adults now. I just hope we see more Naley and Skills/Deb!
Posted by: Beth | June 30, 2008 12:21 PM
i am a huge Leyton fan. i have been since the first episode. Lucas and Peyton are meant to be together. but i am getting really sick of this whole storyline. either they need to get together and be happy together or they need to just get over each other and move on. because i dont just miss their relationship, i miss their friendship. and one more thing, the whole brucas-jeyton thing, give it up. Jake and Peyton were a cute couple and they did love each other, but that love faded. it ended and never came up again. it was over. and with Brucas, they both really loved each other too, and they were really cute together but they decided to end their relationship because they didn't love each other like that anymore. and bringing the whole brucas thing back would be really stupid because you can tell that they have became way to good of friends to ever feel like they once felt. so i think that Lucas and Peyton need to either get back together and really mean it this time or end it all and move on with their lives.
Posted by: Ashley | June 30, 2008 12:11 PM
They need to give it up. The writers have done everything for that couple. They've made the whole of Tree Hill revolve around them and still half the fans or more cant stand them. This must tell you something about how hopeless the couple is.
Brucas is the underdog and still they have been able to muster as much fans, if not more than Leyton. They win almost every major poll on the web (I'm talking about polls 2000+ votes). Many fans would even prefer Lindcus to them.
They are a terribly boring couple. They cheat and hurt people who really love them and then the writers try to gloss over all the crap they do, by referring to them in elaborate terms like 'epic' and 'meant to be'. Some of us are fooled. But not all of us. If this couple ends up together, it will just show support for all the nonsense they've done and all the hearts they've broken.
Posted by: vortex199 | June 30, 2008 12:05 PM
I have gone back and rewatched seasons 1, 2, and 3. I can see that writters set it up for Lucas and Peyton to be together, but I don't believe that they work well together. I think the Brooke and Lucas are better off together. One thing I noticed in season 5 was how well their character worked together. They challenge each other, they have built great friendship and they talk to each other.
I believe that the love triangle is getting old so Lucas should choose someone, but I hope it is Brooke.
Posted by: Nichole | June 30, 2008 11:55 AM
i completly agree with jackie on this one..as you girls continue to watch oth you will see that lucas and peyton are not meant to be with each other and they are actually better people when they are seeing other people. i personally do not even see the amazing connection and chemistry that people see in pucas. BRUCAS JEYTON and NALEY are the best couples on that show and mark didnt realize when he had it that way how good it was for all the characters now we just get to see brooke with whatever random guy walks past her and of course lucas and peyton are still being shoved down everyone that watches the shows throat.
i cant wait for you girls to watch the rest of the seasons and see the build up that brooke and lucas had and how in love they were with each other. however i do think it will just make yall hate lucas even more because you will really see he doesnt know what he wants
Posted by: Lindsey | June 30, 2008 11:27 AM
Okay, I have watched this show from the very beginning. I love Peyton and like Lucas but I am starting to not like Peyton. I was a Leyton fan but with the Fifth Season I lost some respect for Peyton. Peyton has turned into a shell of the person she was at the beginning and I miss the kick-butt and taking names Peyton. I think they need to drop the Leyton storyline until Peyton becomes her old-self. She needs to bring back her attitude and fiestyness before she can be with Lucas.
Posted by: angela | June 30, 2008 11:26 AM
I'm A Lucas and Peyton fan but amoung everyone im sure i just want them to get together already, I cant wait any longer, lol. I have been a fan of them since the 1st season when peytons car breaks down and lucas goes to help her out. There was just a spark i could see between the characters which chad and hilarie are great at producing! The reason im a peyton lucas fan is because from the start brooke had the wrong intentions with lucas (based on fun, and sex) whereas peyton actually felt that she loved him since day one just didnt know how to express it. I think peyton didnt realize it until brooke was dating him, but that doesnt make her wrong for feeling that way. Heres to hoping for Lucas and Peyton In Season 6! If not don't tease us nemore!
Posted by: Brittany | June 30, 2008 11:23 AM
Lucas and Peyton are soulmates.
(I'm only saying that because I don't want Lucas to screw up Brooke's or any other girl's life.)
Posted by: Corinne | June 30, 2008 11:12 AM
Even though I am a die hard Leyton fan, with everything that has been going on in season 5, I don't think Lucas deserves Peyton or Brooke. He just needs to stay single for awhile and figure out what he really wants and to stop juggling all these girls around and Peyton needs to just let Lucas go once and for all.
Posted by: Amy | June 30, 2008 11:06 AM
Lucas and Peyton are soulmates. They always have been, they always will be. I do agree that the writers have confused the situation a little bringing in Brooke and Jake but for me both of those were cleared up. In Lucas's book he even writes about his relationship with Peyton "every instinct to the contrary had smply been a denial of the following truth" and he and Brooke have also said that they were just friends. Also, in season 3 when Jake and Peyton are together and she's asking him to marry her she thinks that Lucas has already moved on because she says "Brooke has Lucas". However, in her sleep she says "I love you, Lucas" which shows that she still has feelings for him. For me, this couple should end the show and they've always been meant for eachother, and I'd be really unhappy to see them end for good. So, I'd like to thanks Mark and all the other writers on the show for setting them up, because I see them as soulmates and agree with what they do with this couple.
Posted by: tasha | June 30, 2008 11:03 AM
i think they are the best couple ever!!! i mean they were so young when they started so obvisouly there going to differ a bit but the fact that they now have grown up i want them back soo much!!! LEYTON <3
Posted by: darelle | June 30, 2008 11:00 AM
Just so you guys know, I am a Leyton fan, but before I was a Leyton fan I was a hardcore Brucas fan. Now I like them both. But this topic is about Leyton, so I won't talk about Brucas.
So here is what I like about Leyton:
They have obvious chemistry. I like that there relationship has been building up for 5 seasons. I like that they still have a connection, and that they are ALWAYS there for each other and are the only ones that really understand each other. BUT then maybe it only seems like they are the ONLY ones that understand each other, because in season two I thought Peyton opened up to Jake just as much if not more than she did with Lucas. And Lucas opened up to Brooke in Season 3, yeah toward the end he started closing up but I don't believe he ever totally opened up to Peyton about the stuff that went on in season 3 either.
So I do believe they were set up from the beginning as soul mates and although I am a leyton fan, I am tired of the whole will-they-won't-they thing. I will be happy if leyton gets together. But if it doesn't work then it doesn't work, and leyton should be done. They should both move on and be happy with other people. Cause I have seen them be just as happy with other people as they are with each other. I want to give leyton one more chance, they deserve it after a 5 season build up, but after that if it works GOOD if not, the storyline is becoming annoying.
Posted by: Amanda | June 30, 2008 10:55 AM
I am also a Brucas fan, but I don't think it will ever happen because of what happened with Chad Michael Murray and Sophia Bush in real life. I think in the series they will always be friends, but nothing more. I personally don't like Lucas and Peyton because Peyton at one time was so crazy about Jake!! She was ready to marry him remember??
Posted by: Anita | June 30, 2008 10:29 AM
I don't care which way it goes (though I really do love Jake)--I just hope they make a decision and stick with it
Posted by: Isha | June 30, 2008 10:24 AM
I totally agree with Jackie. At first, it was okay. Whatever, they are both brooding, stick 'em together. But them Brooke and Lucas got together and they were HAPPY. Until Peyton screwed them over, that is. Third season and second season shwoed that Brooke and Lucas can work as a couple and Peyton can love someone other than Jake.
Their will-they-won't-they and slit-my-wrists-we-are-so-angsty relationship is tired, old, and boring. They dragged this storyline on ALL 5th season! I'm a brucas fan, but at this point, IU don't care who Lucas gets together with, just choose someone and stop whining about it!
