So true! Chad/Sophia had a relationship and still didn't have magnificent chemistry! Then it was even worse when they split. You make a great point about Sophia not being a Brucas fan. It's very possible she played it like that on purpose. Every interview I have seen with Sophia talking about the triangle, she always made it known Brooke/Lucas were not the real deal. She even admitted she was a Lucas/Peyton fan, even wore a t-shirt supporting Lucas/Peyton. Sophia understood what was going on and she supported the meant to be pairing in Lucas/Peyton. I will bet you're right and her portrayal of Brooke and Brooke/Lucas reflected her understanding of the storyline, not to mention what she personally wanted, lol.
