And while caring for a drugged-out Peyton, Lucas sees a whole new side of Brooke; he realizes that she may seem all fun, but she can be caring too. That night, Lucas and Brooke form a bond and eventually start dating. But halfway into the new relationship, Lucas realizes that his feelings for Peyton are too strong to be ignored, and vice versa and the two start a secret affair. However, Brooke soon finds out, much to her anger and heartbreak. Furious and betrayed, Brooke ends her relationships with both of them, Peyton feeling guilty about betraying her best friend breaks up with Lucas, however this does nothing to soothe Brooke who feels that she was totally and utterly betrayed by Peyton. Towards the end of the season, with Lucas also hurting Peyton's feelings by hooking with Nicki who turned out to be Jake Jagielski's ex and Jenny's mother, Brooke decided to try and make things better with Peyton. They tricked Nikki into believing that Jake had taken their daughter to Seattle.
