If you read my A/N on passive, I commented that I had this random fic stuck on my mind. Well the idea hasn't left, and I decided to write it. It's going to be short though, like 10 chapters top; unlike my other fics. This is another twist on Haley coming back from tour. I know, another one? But I don't think anyone has wrote something like this. Continuing, this takes place after the Halloween dance, except

Chris was never called so Nathan technically kissed Haley.

So Rachel is the new girl, and has beef with Brooke already. One day Haley meets Rachel and they hit it off. They become great friends; too great that in Nathan's opinion it's bugging him. He becomes jealous because instead of Haley fighting for his love, she's hanging out with Rachel. In that point instead of Haley doing the chasing, it's now Nathan. Oh and Rachel's a lesbian still in the closet and has a crush on a certain blonde. Let the drama begin:

----------------------

"Can you believe that bitch?" Brooke asked fuming, while she kept pacing around the small living room. "Goes in and takes Lucas away from me! Right when I was going to dance when him. Better yet, before I got my groove on."

"Groove?" Haley chuckled at the furious brunette. Brooke turned to Haley.

"Want me to say before I fucked him then?" Brooke asked. Haley looked at her in disgust. They were talking about her best friend after all. The person that accepted the whole non exclusive crap.

"Groove it is" Haley answered. Brooke groaned frustrated then sat beside Haley.

"Known her for 4 days and I already hate her" Brooke said coldly.

"Who is she anyways?" Haley asked. Ever since the Halloween dance, all she heard was bitch this and bitch that. Haley had no clue who this bitch was, according to Brooke.

"Rachel Gatina. She just transferred here from hell" Brooke answered. Haley laughed again. Had to love Brooke Davis when she's bashing someone.

"I'm positive Lucas only danced with her to get you jealous. I mean, notice the way you are constantly around him. He think's you're bipolar. One minute you're sweet to him and the next you're ignoring him and hanging with a crowd of horny guys" Haley replied.

"It's not my fault! He's the one that cant be trusted" Brooke answered.

"Fine" Haley said defeated. There was no winning the conversation.

"So, have you confronted Nathan about the kiss?" Brooke asked. Haley sighed.

"I tried, but he just blew me off. I'm going to take the kiss as part of the moment" Haley answered.

"Moment spomoment. You don't kiss someone if you don't like them or want to get in their pants" Brooke replied.

"That makes me feel better" Haley sarcastically said.

"You're welcome. Now talking about kissing, I'm going to visit Lucas. Before that whore takes him first. See you later tutorgirl" Brooke said and shortly left the apartment, leaving Haley alone.

"What to do?" Haley said to herself. For the moment she felt somewhat gloomy. The only friends she had for the moment were Lucas, Brooke and the river court guys. Shopping, popped to her mind. She laughed at the idea, thanking Brooke. Since she began to live with her, now when she felt sad, had the urge to buy pants to make her feel better. To the mall, Haley left.

"I wouldn't get those" a redhead from behind said. Haley stared at the jeans than at her.

"Why?" Haley asked. They were regular, flared jeans. What was the problem?

"Because they make the midsection look like you're pregnant. For someone with your body, I say buy the low rise jeans" she replied, now aside Haley.

"Me in those types of jeans? I don't think so" Haley said beginning to walk away. Rachel followed behind her.

"Why not? I will kill to have your legs" Rachel replied. Haley turned around and looked up to down at redhead.

"I will kill to have your stomach" Haley answered. Rachel chuckled then grabbed a pair of low rise jeans and handed them to Haley.

"Try these on. You'll love them" Rachel said. Haley chuckled along, then stepped into the changing room, while Rachel waiting outside.

"I'm Rachel Gatina by the way" Rachel replied from outside.

"So you're the infamous Rachel, I heard of so much" Haley answered.

"Infamous? What have you heard?" Rachel asked curiously. Haley shortly opened the door, revealing her in the new jeans.

"Had a clash with Brooke. Hitted on her boyfriend. Ring a bell?" Haley asked, as she looked at herself in the mirror.

"Oh, the Tommy Lee look-alike? Please, I only danced with him, and may of kissed him" Rachel confessed.

"Whatever you say…you're right. I love theses jeans. I'm Haley by the way" Haley replied. Rachel stared at her. Those jeans did look good on her.

"Well Haley, I suggest you buy those jeans then" Rachel grinned.

"Will do" Haley answered, then closed the door to change. After buying several clothes, Haley had a great time with her new friend. They had a lot in common and they arranged to meet at school the following day. Haley arrived to her apartment happy.

"You went shopping? Without me?" Brooke asked as she saw Haley come in with various bags.

"Sorry, last minute thing. Plus, you were with Lucas all day" Haley replied, setting her bags down.

"Yeah, but I would of help the shame of shopping alone. Buddy system Haley, buddy system" Brooke replied, walking closer to Haley to gaze at what she bought…and what she can borrow later.

"Actually, I made a new friend" Haley answered. Brooke looked at Haley questionable.

"You know? Rachel isn't so-

"Haley Marie Carole James Scott! How dare you make friends with that whore!" Brooke shouted.

"That's not even my name. I like her and I'm going to hang out with her" Haley answered.

"Haley-

"Think about it this way, she wont be all over Lucas when I'm with her" Haley said. Brooke crossed her arms.

"Fine, but she better stay the hell away from him" Brooke replied.

"Ok then" Haley said, walking to the kitchen.

"These are cute jeans. I never thought you as the kind to buy these" Brooke said, holding up the jeans.

"Yeah, me neither. Rachel convinced me to buy them" Haley replied. Brooke stared at them more.

"Hate the bitch, but she does have good fashion sense" Brooke replied as she then scanned at the other clothes.
