One Tree Hill fics

I have schemes of work to edit (got 5 of 9 that I've done so far tidied up and edited, so left the rest), a child that won't settle in her cot, and yet I still manage to read the Doomed Ships Comment Ficathon and write for it. Who knew?
Title: You Could Be My Silver Spring
Author: helsinkibaby
Fandom: One Tree Hill
Pairing: Jake/Peyton
Rating: PG
Notes: for the prompt everyday I hear your song now, everyday it won't go away."
"I'll come back to you someday..."
The song is one of the summer's biggest hits, is everywhere on the radio, but Peyton still does her best to avoid it. If she's in the store shopping, she takes extra care in selecting her groceries. If she's in the car driving, she flips the channel. If she's at home, she does the same thing.
Not because she doesn't like the song; she does.
It's just that every time she hears it, she's starry eyed seventeen again, sitting at a bar in Savannah, smiling up at the guy singing it to her, the guy who wrote it for her.
Over the years, she's often thought about Jake, but this is different.
Not that it should be. She's married, she has a child, she's not that seventeen year old anymore. She's happy, loves her life, loves Lucas.
But that song takes her back.
So she does her best to ignore it, hopes that Luke doesn't notice the effect it has on her.
Pretends not to notice that he always does.
Title: No More Waiting
Author: helsinkibaby
Fandom: One Tree Hill
Pairing: Jake/Peyton
Rating: PG
Notes: for the prompt no more waiting around." AU to the end of season three.
When the doorbell chimes so late at night, Jake is up to answer it in a second; his first though being that something has happened to Jenny. He's expecting to see Nikki or one of her parents, so seeing Peyton is a bit of a shock.
Though not as much as the way she's dressed; red strapless dress, high heeled shoes, hair swept up but dishevelled looking now, ringlets escaping to frame her face.
Her smiling face.
Her smiling face that's just begging to be kissed.
So that's exactly what he does, and she kisses him back like it's the only thing she wants to do for the rest of her life.
When she pulls back, she is laughing, delighted. "What are you doing here?" he asks, and she shrugs, her hands on his shoulders.
"I was standing at that altar, watching Haley say her vows, and it hit me... I want that. With you. And I don't want to wait around any m-"
Whatever she was going to say is cut off when his lips find hers, when he lifts her off her feet. It's what he wants too, what he never thought he'd find again, and he's tired of waiting around too.
They might indeed stay like that for the rest of their lives but there's an explosive throat clearing from behind Peyton and when they pull away, Jake sees a cabbie standing there, disgust and impatience written all over his face. Peyton laughs again, holds up a purse that couldn't possibly contain anything bigger than a lipstick. "I used my credit card for the flight," she says, "But I'd no cash for the cab..."
Suddenly he notices the absence of luggage. "Where are your bags?"
She shrugs again. "I went straight to the airport from the wedding...this is it."
He stares, stunned by the notion that she really didn't want to wait around, just got the first flight here with nothing but the clothes she was standing in. The cabbie clearing his throat again galvanises him into action. "Stay here," he tells her. "I'll get my wallet."
"Don't worry," she tells him. "I'm not going anywhere."
