what if? (brooke&lucas; boit)

So i've been kind of bummed bout all the leyton in season 6 but since i've seen 6x07 promo i started thinkin lucas doesn't seem very happy with peyton and everything they do is forced for him and it looks like even he thinks the things she does are ridiculous such as the whole leg thing in the 6x07 promo he's all like hm are u serious? but yea...i'll stand door my thought that he's hiding from brooke because he's afraid his real feelings will come out...OH and i loved when brooke finally told peyton about what happened but like dude it just proved that peyton believed her about the stairs...mhm...

Leyton supporters have claimed that Lucas was only hiding away from Peyton through Brooke.

Funny thing is, as a non-supporter, I can argue that it’s actually the other way around.
Consider season 2’s finale. That ending scene for Lucas and Brooke is a powerful revelation in Lucas part (and he doesn’t need anybody to bombard him about what his hart-, hart wants)

Lucas: I wanna be with you, Brooke.
Brooke: What?
Lucas: I know we’re vrienden but it’s just how I feel.
Brooke: But what about the Peyton stuff?
Lucas: I keep that stuff to remind myself how badly I screwed up things...with you; to remind...
