It seems that
lavendergaia and I ship against the norm. But that's okay, cuz our ships are the best.
Lucas/Haley. Why? Because they're adorable. They obviously care so much about each other and I find it hard to believe that neither is attracted to the other. They just get along so well! I mean, I love Naley, but before I really knew the show I just expected that Laley would happen.
Nathan/Brooke. They're two peas in a pod. They're the popular kids who eventually become nice, caring people. And I feel that they really care for each other. They're super adorable too, like at the party where he chases her around the sprinklers and then picks her up and carries her. That's totally when I started shipping it. But even in S5 and S6, it's obvious they're still really good friends. He goes to check up on her, and ask favors from her, or even just to hang out. It's awesome, I think, that they're still good friends even with all that sex tape stuff.
Peyton/Jake. When Peyton is around Jake, she stops being so self centered and whiny. I really like them, and I wish they had gotten married. But I guess it was good that Jake called her out on how selfish she is. At least somebody recognizes it.
Rachel/Brooke. They're the bestest friends and really hot together. They just get along so well and they're so awesome and they totally need to hook up like yesterday.
Lucas/Nathan. UST. (This pairing is more of a joke. I don't actively ship it. It's just strange how slashy it is. Well, this is the CW).
Skills/Haley. They were so cute in the Breakfast Club episode. <3 He's totally the best uncle to Jamie ever.
Those last two are more just afterthoughts. Those first four I actively ship. Although, to be honest, I'm fine with Naley, at least in S1. It's really cute then.
