When Neva and Mandy arrive in Tree Hill it is early on a Thursday and almost two months since they met. Both couples have been in constant contact with one another. Lucas is still at school but Keith picks them up at their hotel. After a hug from Neva, Keith gives them an overview of what he hopes will interest them on their visit. Neva is dressed in jeans and a red crossover top with low heels, and Mandy is in khaki twill pants with a low cut burgundy top, both look model perfect.

After school Lucas meets Keith and the ladies at Karen’s café. When Lucas arrives he is surprised to see Brooke, Peyton and Karen surrounding them at a table. Karen wanders over to the counter to help customers. Karen motions for Lucas to come over and she tells him how much she likes Mandy.

After a snack the group leaves to go to a movie, during the movie Keith and Neva giggle and whisper while sharing popcorn. Lucas and Mandy cuddle and hold hands. Afterward they split up; Neva and Keith go to his house and Lucas and Mandy go for a drive.

Lucas knows the perfect view he wants Mandy to see of the sunset. When they get there Mandy agrees it was worth the trip. Lucas moves toward her and runs his fingers down her face and leans in to kiss her. She responds by licking her lips and moving in for closer contact. He runs his hands tentatively over her top and realizing it ties in the back he puts his hands under her shirt. She moves closer encouraging him as he starts to undo her bra in the front. He can feel her soft round breasts and his pants tighten in the crotch.

“Mandy, I'm sorry I shouldn't be touching you?”
“It’s okay,” she says.
He moves back but leaves his hands around her waist.
“I don’t usually make love on the first date.”
“I wish I could say that I haven't,” she says, putting her hands under his shirt to touch his hard abs.
“I already care for you talking to you this last couple of months has made me realize that I want more than a physical relationship with you, so I think we should wait,” he adds hesitantly.
She leans over and kisses him again.
“Everyone thinks I am a real serious guy, maybe I am, but as much as I want you right now I want a lasting relationship with you more, not just to make love to you," he says while gently re-clasping her bra.

I'll just think about her beautiful lips and I'll be fine She bites her lip again.
“Most guys just want to get in my pants.”
Lucas holds her and smiles,
“I can understand that, you are a sweet and beautiful young lady with an awesome body.”
She smiles.
He holds her close to him and they make plans for the next day, they also talk of him visiting her at her home.

At Keith’s home he and Neva are sitting in front of the fireplace drinking wine and talking. Keith puts his glass down and takes Neva’s from her as he leans in to kiss her. She pulls him closer as she leans back on the couch. He takes his shirt off and reaches for hers, she stops him and pulls it off over her head, within minutes they are both nude and she stops him. “I thought we were waiting to have sex,” she asks.
“You're right, we waited until now” he laughs.
He takes her upstairs to the bedroom where they make love together for the first time.

The next morning after they are dressed they call Mandy at the hotel, Lucas had left a message the previous night saying he was leaving school early to meet Mandy and “hang out.” So after breakfast the threesome take a drive and make several stops and local shops.

Later in the day, Lucas goes to pick up Mandy at the hotel. When Mandy opens the door in a cute short skirt and a tank top, he has a hard time keeping his hands off of her.
“Ready to go?”
“Let me just get my purse.”
He goes in the room behind her hoping for a quick kiss, she turns around with a smile and puts her arms around his neck. After several long kisses, they decide it is best to leave right away.

At the mall they run into Peyton and Brook while they window shop and have lunch.
“Hey Lucas, glad to see you again Mandy,” Brooke says.
“Whatsup?” says Peyton
“You too have a nice day, you hear,” Brooke adds as the walk away with a wave. Lucas just shakes his head and smiles.
“They sure are acting a little jealous to be your exes,” Mandy observes.
“They are just my friends now, they’ll be fine, really,” he adds.

In the window at one store he notices she is taking a longer time than at the others, so he suggests they go inside. As they are walking around Mandy talks of the outfits she likes and he decides to buy her one.
“Oh no, I wouldn’t ask you to do this.”
“You are not asking me I am saying it is something I want to do, please.”
Mandy picks out a cute red dress with a matching shrug, and he loves it.
“Do you have shoes to match,” he asks smiling.
“Not really only black ones, but I will buy them,” she says winking.
He doesn’t argue because in the back of his he head he is thinking he will surprise her with matching jewelry the next day.

They meet Neva and Keith for dinner after leaving they mall and they have a great time describing their days. Keith and Neva had spent quite a bit of time at Keith’s home but they had also gone to take a tour of the coastline. Neva’s face is glowing and Mandy notices it right away, she excuses herself and both ladies go to the restroom. “So how was he?” Mandy asks.
“Watch it young lady I am older than you,” though she can’t stop smiling.
“That good huh,” Mandy responds as they head back to the table.

Lucas walks Mandy up to her hotel room, and decides to go in and talk a while. When he is kissing Mandy goodbye there is a knock on the door. Mandy looks at him as the knocking become more insistent.
“Lucas, open the door,” Dan says.
“Great, my dad.”
They let him in the door.
“Where is Keith, why are you here with this slut?”
“Dad, watch it don’t come in here talking about my girl, that way,’ Lucas says trying to be calm.
Mandy is on the bed now holding back her tears.
Lucas shoves Dan back out the door.
“You need to leave,” Lucas adds.

Lucas goes over to Mandy and puts his arms around her.
“Don’t worry he is just talking crazy.”
“But he is your dad, won’t he influence you.”
“No way Dan has no control over me, he is just a jerk.”
He sits in the chair by the bed and she sits in his lap.
“I am a slut you know, until recently at least, “she says looking into his eyes.
“Mandy just ignore him, I am here because I want to be.”
They decide the bed will be more comfortable and lay down fully clothed.
Mandy falls asleep within minutes and Lucas soon afterward.

The next morning Keith knocks on the door to tell them it is time for breakfast. Lucas answers the door and asks Keith to hold. Out in the hall he tells him about Dan’s outburst.
“You know your father is a jerk, just make sure Mandy knows you don’t share his opinion.”
“Don’t worry but I fell asleep last night here and now I don’t have clothes to change into.”
“Just wash your face you will be fine.”

At breakfast Mandy was a little more subdued than before and Neva asked what was wrong when they go to the ladies room. Mandy explains what happened. “What did Lucas say?”
“That his father is a jerk.”
Neva laughs, “Trust him then he is obviously crazy about you.”

After breakfast, they explore several area antique shops. On their excursion Mandy finds a ring for Lucas to wear to remind him of her.
“You don’t have to, you know, I won’t forget you, but it is nice,” he adds laughing. Mandy puts the silver ring on his right hand ring finger.
Lucas is emotional about the token, and gives her an extended hug and a kiss. She blushes.
“I still want to buy you those shoes,” he says with a grin.

For lunch they picnic in the park near one of the antique shops. After eating Lucas and Mandy take a walk. Seating on a bench feeding the ducks, Mandy is concerned about last night.
“We didn’t make love last night?”
“No,” he says smiling.
Mandy licks her lips. Lucas sees her concern.
“Mandy, I want to be the only one that you sleep with, is that something you want?”
“Yes, I want that to.”
“I want you to be my girl,”
“Yes, I will, I heard you tell your dad last night, that was so sweet,” she adds.
“I said because I was hoping you would agree,” he says kissing her.

On the way back to meet Keith and Neva they take a detour for some privacy. Lucas leans Mandy against the tree, and spends several minutes kissing her again, this time long and hard.
Mandy leans up.
“Okay now you are just torturing me,” she laughs.
“Actually, that is a taste of how much I want you,” he says smiling and kissing her again.

Keith and Neva are in the car waiting when they return. They are kissing and Keith has his hand under Neva’s blouse. He is surprised when Lucas knocks on the window. Lucas in no hurry to see Dan again so he asks Keith to take him by Nathan’s to get him some clothes for the next day.

At Nathan’s house Lucas introduces Mandy to Nathan and Haley.
”We have heard so much about you,” Haley exclaims.
Then she hugs her and Nathan gives Lucas a playful punch.
“Nice to meet you Mandy,” Nathan adds.
Then the guys go in the room to pick out some clothes.
“So you live near Wilmington?”
“Oh yes, but I actually grew up in a small town in TX.”
“Great, we have to get together sometime when you visit, next.”
“Sounds like a plan,” Mandy says smiling at Haley’s friendliness.

Keith and Neva don’t go in at Nathan’s just to save time. They have decided that Keith would make dinner at his home with all the new produce Neva talked him into buying.
“So all natural for you huh?”
“As much as possible,” Neva responds.
Keith licks his lips and looks at Neva and is leaning for a kiss when Lucas and Mandy return to the car.

After Neva and Mandy leave town the next day, Keith and Lucas are sitting at Karen’s Café talking about them.
“Gee I already miss her,” Lucas says laughing out loud.
“Yea, I think we both have the bug,” Keith laughs.
Dan walks in the cafe.
“Looks like we have a couple guys with jungle fever,” he says to Karen as she ignores him.
“Dan do you need something?” she answers turning to him with a frown.
“You still serve coffee right,”
After he makes his purchase he takes a seat at Keith and Lucas’ table.
Both of them get up and leave the café.



As a reminder here is Thandie's pic, obviously Mandy is a younger version and has shoulder lenghth wavy auburn hair with highlights and hazel eyes.
