The chemistry between these two has ALWAYS been there. From any scene that they shared
together on-screen to any picture of them hanging off-screen, you could always feel something there.
James Lafferty once said, referring to Sophia & Chad’s relationship, “I wish I had a relationship like theirs.
They’re joined at the lips!” Once asked about Sophia, he said, “We hang out a lot, and she makes me laugh.
The reason for this is because this was the first major thing me and her had done, so we kind of stuck
together in the beginning. Now we try and get together as much as possible. Chad’s a real lucky guy.”
It seems to me that James has always spoken very highly of Sophia and may have even had a little
crush on her, but kept it hidden ecause she already someone. Years later, Sophia’s relationship
with Chad ended, leaving her heart-broken and finding a new strength within herself. With Sophia’s
indomitable determination to get over her humiliation and heartbreak, I imagine that James was there to
help her through it, as she once called James “one of her best friends.” Once asked if she was sad things
didn’t work out with Chad, she responded, “No, I’m not sad that it didn’t work out, because it wasn’t supposed
to. I’m much better off now and much happier than I’ve ever been.” Around 2007 and 2008, it seemed that James
& Sophia started spending a lot of time together, and that the two were getting very close. Surely enough,
rumors started to swirl about them and lots of pictures of the pair hanging out and taking fan pictures started
to surface very often and it was eventually leaked in an interview that “Sophia has James” and I myself took
that as confirmation enough that they were after all this time, together. I’m a big believer that everything
happens for a reason, and that, to quote Brooke Davis, “People that are meant to be together always find their
way in the end,” and I think this is the case with James & Sophia. Two best friends that have known
each other for about 6 years, eventually opening their eyes and realizing that the right person was right in
front of your eyes the whole time. I ship these two because as most celebrities announce to the world who
they are going out with, James & Sophia try to keeping it as private as possible and treat their relationship
like a sacred bond, which it should be treated as. They truly give me hope for love and they strike me as
the type of couple that will last for a very long time, if not forever.

James and Sophia are two of the most loving, humble people. The fact that they have a great friendship
which blossomed into something more is really a beautiful thing. They both deserve happiness, and if they
make each other happy then I fully support them. I wish them nothing but the best.

I always wanted Sophia and James to be a couple. I have my real life couples that I want to be together
even when she was with Chad I thought James had a crush on her. And when they had their sex!tape scene
in season 4 I was so sure that they are gonna be together in the future. I just think that they are so cute and
have such a great chemistry. And I believe that James threat her like a princess. Honestly, I think that they
can be a couple that lasts. At least I hope so.

I absolutely love James and Sophia, because I think they are perfect for each other. I think they share the
same hearts. They are soulmates. James and Sophia are friends, partners and lovers. Every relationship
should start with friendship.One very important reason is that I love Sophia Bush and James Lafferty as two
individuals. They are my favourite characters on one tree hill and they are my favourite celebs in real life.
Together they are perfect. They look hot together. They have chemistry and they're just wonderful lovers.
I absolutely love Jophia. They are my favourite couple.

James and Sophia have a natural appeal as a couple who have gone through years of being
close friends and having that as a strong foundation for their current romance. I support
them because they respect their privacy and expect others to, not flaunting their relationship
for media exposure. Their on-screen friendship is filled with chemistry and is one of the
only things I still look forward to seeing on the show. I wish them the best and really hope
their relationship goes the distance.

Okay so you know when you first start watching a show and you immediatly decide who you're two favourite
characters are? IT'S THEM. OTH is NB heaven. Main reason for this is the chemistry between them. I see James
as the admirer, Watching Soph from afar and dreaming of her being his girlfriend and NOW she is! YAYZ. I truely
love how private they are and how both are completely professional on and off set. I hope this perfect couple
will be together for many years to come, if not I know they will remain great friends. Summing it up in three
words - Pure, Private and Proffesionaly AWESOME.
