Nathan and Haley had the relationship we all wanted to have, ya know…high school sweethearts who make it happen. If you’re ‘Team Naley’ you believe in high school sweethearts who beat the odds. You’ve got to get through the pain to find happiness and you’ve got to love yourself before you can love someone else, or at least be willing to try.
GIGI ONE TREE HILL SERIES
Their happy ending was one of the most real in the series because it’s something we’ve all experienced. Julian didn’t save Brooke, but he brought her to joys and to love and to a sense of being that she didn’t have before him. Brooke had experienced some of the darkest times of her life, seemingly on her own, and she was strong because of it. In that same breath, he knew what he deserved too. Julian was a little rough around the edges but Brooke didn’t change him, he wanted to be better for her, so he made changes on his own because he knew what she deserved. If you’re ‘Team Brulian’ you believe that love doesn’t have to begin early to be real.īrooke may not have found her happy ending in Lucas, but she found her happy ending in Julian and their story was beautiful. The two getting their happy ending is what made One Tree Hill what it was, and after every single thing they went through together, from the love triangle that started it all to Lucas wondering if Peyton would survive the birth of their child – it seemed as if their love was meant to overcome obstacles. The boy saw the comet and suddenly his life had meaning.’ But even in his darkest hours, he knew in his heart that someday it would return to him, and his world would be whole again… And his belief in God and love and art would be re-awakened in his heart. There are many who couldn’t understand, and sometimes he walked among them. It was more than just a comet because of what it brought to his life: direction, beauty, meaning. And when it went away, he waited his entire life for it to come back to him. The boy saw the comet and he felt as though his life had meaning. He wrote about it in his book, Peyton was Lucas’ book… There was a bigger power that kept them together. Peyton and Lucas met and they were drawn to one another and as time went on, even when they weren’t together, their relationship grew. Like we said, we’re totally ‘Team Leyton’ here and their love story sort of gave us hope for our own. If you’re ‘Team Leyton’ you believe that love is born in like minds and hearts and that it lasts. Plus, seeing the two of them be supportive of one another as they grew into the people they were meant to be was part of one of the best bonds on the series. No matter how terribly you want something, sometimes, things aren’t meant to be – while Brooke and Lucas had some sweet moments together, their best ones came later in life when their friendship was the focus and they truly cared about one another and their best lives. Brooke wanted to be the one to change Lucas’ heart and Lucas wanted to be the right guy for Brooke. If you’re ‘Team Brucas’ you believe that you could be ‘the one’ that changes ‘the one’.īrooke and Lucas weren’t meant to be, but boy…did they both want to be the one for each other – just never at the same or the right time. So instead of trying to make that impossible decision, we looked at the series and those legendary relationships and we evaluated what each one of them brought to the show. Each couple brings something different to the series and it’s hard to just pick one. So when Lucas and Peyton drove off into eternal happiness together, we missed their characters but were happy that they finally got their happy ending. Personally, we are massive ‘Team Leyton’ fans. There are friendships that last forever and romances that ignite overnight and it all reflects on the small town high school and that basketball team rivalry that started it all. There are love triangles, couples meant to be from different ‘social circles’, fathers who were never fathers and family members who stepped up in their places. So, we’ve been on a bit of a One Tree Hill kick lately, and if you’ve ever watched the series, you know that the relationships are what make the series.
