Haley James Scott was breathing heavily, her eyes were closed, sweat glistening on her pale, colorless, face.
"Hales, you need to stay awake." A voice commanded shaking her body, with much effort she opened them looking into the baby blue eyes of her lover Nathan Scott.
"I-I don't know if I can Nathan, it hurts." She told him softy, her voice shaking.
"Yes, you can," he argued, "Who else would keep me company?"
"Is that the only thing I'm good for?" She asked.
"Well I can name a few other things that you do pretty well." Nathan replied, smirking, tenderly kissing her forehead.
"Hey! You two enough!" A young man exclaimed pointing a gun at them.
"Sorry, Jimmy." Nathan responded holding one hand up in the air but keeping the other tightly pressed on the dark, red stained hoodie that lay on Haley's shoulder.
"Jimmy, you need to let them go, Haley's hurt." Lucas announced trying to reason with him.
"I can't Lucas, she's my ticket out of here." Jimmy answered, running a hand through his hair.
"Okay." He said after a moment, he looked around the room at the broken, scared faces that were filled with despair. Haley lay lifelessly in Nathan's lap, as he stroked her face. Peyton, Rachel, and Brooke sat around Mouth.
"What about Mouth? You busted his lip pretty bad, he'll need stitches." Lucas reasoned.
"He'll live." Jimmy replied and Lucas sighed.
"Could this get any worse?" He thought.
"Okay Lucas I'll make you a deal, I'll let someone go and I'll let you pick."
"Haley." He insisted, but Jimmy shook his head.
"Let me finish, I'll let either Brooke or Peyton go, which one do you care about more?" Jimmy questioned with a smile.
The bell rang through the hallways and the students flocked out of the classrooms.
"Nathan, wait up!" Lucas called through the sea of students.
"What's up?" He asked.
"Me, mouth, and some of the guys are going to go down to the rivercourt and we wanted to know if you wanted to join."
"Sorry guys I can't, I promised Haley I would spend tonight with her." Nathan stated.
"Nice." Mouth smiled giving him a thumbs up.
"Shut up," Nathan said laughing as he shoved him into the locker, "I just need to find her, I already checked the tutor center."
"I think she's in the library with Rachel and Brooke." Mouth said. They started walking when they heard gunshots and the hallway erupted in chaos. People began running, screaming, and pushing toward the exit. They ran to the exit when Nathan stopped.
"Nathan wha-
"Haley." He mumbled.
"What?"
"Haley, she's in the library with the girls." He exclaimed running back into the building.
"Nathan, wait!" Lucas cried running after him.
"Wait for me!" Mouth requested following Lucas.
"So, Luke who's it going to be? Peyton or Brooke?"
So what do you think? Good, bad? Please review.
