Secrets
Chapter 1
Haley was getting ready for another day at college she only had two years left. She couldn't wait to finish this past year had been the worst in her life, she now hated this place so much. Before class she went to meet her best friends Brooke and Peyton at the college canteen it was a daily routine for them it gave them a chance to catch up and have breakfast together. They've been friends since kindergarten. When Haley got to the canteen Brooke rushed over and pulled Haley into a hug.
"I've missed you too Brooke" Haley said.
"I have the best news ever" Brooke said all excited.
"Ok Brooke what is it" Haley asked.
"Lucas and I are moving in together" Brooke said.
"Congratulations but don't you think your too young" Haley asked.
"Coming from the person who wanted to get married in high school" Brooke said and covered her mouth "Haley I'm sorry I forgot" Brooke said wishing she hadn't said that.
"Brooke its fine it was a year ago I'm fine" Haley said hoping she'd believe her.
"Sometimes I just don't think when I say things" Brooke said.
"Brooke that's why we love you" Haley said.
"Come on guys lets eat" Peyton said coming over.
Then they went and sat at their table.
"I ordered for us" Peyton said.
"Thanks Peyton I'm just gonna get an orange juice" Haley said.
"Huh the morning coffee person herself wanting orange who are you and what have you done to my best friend" Peyton said.
"Ha ha very funny I just feel like having something else today ok" Haley said as she left the table.
Then Haley went to the counter and that's when she saw him captain of the basketball team Nathan Scott, the man that haunted her dreams for the past year not that he would ever know, she hated jocks as she called them. If she could go through out college without having to speak to them she would.
"Hi ladies how are you today" Nathan asked as he approached Peyton and Brooke.
"We're fine" Brooke said.
"Hi Nathan why don't you sit with us" Peyton asked.
"Yeah ok thanks Peyton" Nathan said.
Then Haley came back over.
"They had no Orange juice so I had to get" Haley started to say when she saw him.
"Hi Haley" Nathan said.
"Apple juice" Haley said and sat down.
"Nathan when's your next game" Peyton asked.
"Tomorrow you ladies should come" Nathan asked.
"Ha!" Haley scuffed.
"Yeah I better go it was nice talking to you" Nathan said.
Nathan didn't really know what he had done to Haley for her to hate him so much, all he wanted to do was get to know her better and maybe change her mind about him.
"Haley you don't have to be so rude" Peyton said after Nathan left.
"What you know I hate jocks" Haley said.
"Hey!" Brooke said.
"Not Lucas he's the exception" Haley said.
"Good to hear" Brooke said.
"Haley I know you don't like jocks but there must be something else you seem to hate Nathan more than the others what did he do to you for you to hate him so bad" Peyton asked hoping Haley would tell her.
"It's nothing I just wish the college never had a basketball team" Haley said.
"Haley now I know you don't mean that how can you not love it and with out basketball I'd have no Lucas" Brooke said.
"Guy's I'm gonna go" Haley said.
"Haley Mr Jones wants to see you before class" Brooke said.
"Ok why" Haley asked.
"I don't know he just told me to tell you" Brooke said.
"Thanks Brooke I'll see you later" Haley said.
Haley hated this class she only signed up because of Brooke she just couldn't go to media class on her own oh no she had to drag Haley along.
Then Haley went to Mr Jones office and Nathan was there.
"What are you doing here" Haley asked.
"I don't know I was told to come here" Nathan said.
"Me too" Haley said.
"Ah Haley, Nathan glad you can make it come in" Mr Jones said as he opened his office.
"Sir what is this about" Mr Jones asked as they entered.
"Take a seat so I've got some good news the college have decided to do a video on the basketball team" Mr Jones said.
"Ok what does that have to do with us" Haley asked.
"I'm getting to that, so as I was saying the college looked through your portfolio Miss James and they've chosen you to do a piece on the star basketball player" Mr Jones said.
Haley knew it was coming she just wanted to run "oh hell no!" Haley expressed not even waiting for Mr Jones to finish.
"What's wrong Miss James" Mr Jones said.
"I am not working with him" Haley said.
"What's wrong with me and hey you're not so great yourself" Nathan said.
"Calm down you two are gonna need to get along if this is gonna work" Mr Jones said.
"I'm not doing it" Haley said.
"I haven't even told you what it is you have to do yet" Mr Jones said.
"Yeah so let him finish" Nathan said as Haley glared at him and he gulped.
"Ok so as I was saying the college is gonna do a report on the life of a star basketball player the report will last for the whole of the basketball season" Mr Jones said.
"I'm not doing it" Haley said.
"Miss James will you please let me finish, ok so here's what you have to do you have to travel to all basketball games with Nathan you won't have to share a room with him or anything like that but you will need to be in the same hotel at away games, you need to live eat and breath Nathan Scott" Mr Jones said.
"This is so crazy, I'm not doing it" Haley said.
"If you don't do it you fail the course" Mr Jones said.
"That's not fair I've worked really hard on this course" Haley said.
"Haley the board have chose you they saw your report on the environment and they loved it" Mr Jones said.
"That's great but why him" Haley asked.
"Nathan is one of the best basketball players in the whole of college ball" Mr Jones said.
Nathan had this big smirk on his face Haley wanted nothing more than to wipe that smile of his face.
"I'll do it I can't afford to fail" Nathan said.
"I don't have another choice do I so I'll do it" Haley said reluctantly.
"Ok so you start before the game tomorrow night I think it will be good for you if you get to know each other, that will be all.
"Haley do you wanna do something before the game" Nathan asked after they left the office.
"I don't think so, I gotta go I have class" Haley said as she hurried off.
"Bye Haley" Nathan called after her.
Nathan knew he had to do something to try and help Hayley change her mind about him he didn't know what he did but there was some reason she hated him. All he'd ever done is be nice to her and she was always being off with him. Any other girl and he wouldn't care what they thought about him but this was Haley the girl of his dreams he loved her so much despite how she felt about him. Nathan needed to know why she hated him and he was gonna find out he had too.
