Nathan burst through the door yelling her name,

"Haley!" He saw his sister-in law Taylor walk out of his and Haley's bedroom door holding a blue sweater and his heart literally broke when she looked up at him with sad eyes and said,

"She's gone Nate." And then Taylor walked past him, grabbed her bag and left.

Nathan barely registered the door close behind him. He couldn't think, he could barely breathe as there was already a Haley sized hole in his heart. She's gone. He thought in despair, she's really gone. Nathan sank down to the floor against his wall and all he could think was, it's my fault. He had gave her an ultimatum and she chose Chris. So much for always and forever. He looked up to the small table that they had against they're wall and saw the first gift he had ever given her, a plastic bracelet that he had found on their first tutoring session. He grabbed the bracelet and fingered it in his hands and he felt tears brimming in his eyes and he blinked them away. He laid his head back against the wall and closed his eyes, he stayed there for a moment before getting up and grabbing a beer from the fridge and going to the couch, on his way there he stopped at his wedding pictured, he picked it up a brought it with him to the couch.

He sat down and took a big swig of his beer and sat there staring at his wedding photo and he felt the tears come back to his eyes and this time he let them fall. He sat there staring at Haley in the photo where she looked so beautiful in his eyes. He set his beer down after drowning the last bit of and still he stared at her as if it could somehow bring her back to him, of course he knew that was not possible and that Haley was most likely on the tour bus with Chris right now.

He finally put the photo down as he could not bare to look her as the pain in his chest was getting worse. So now he was staring at a wall, he didn't know how this was better but he couldn't help it he was lost already and he didn't have a clue what to do. He thought about calling Luke but he didn't want to see anyone right now or talk for that matter.

But, the outside world didn't seem to get that as of that moment the door started to open slowly, Nathan didn't hear it as he was lost in another world, Haley clouding his thoughts.

He was pulled out of his reveries when he heard a quiet male voice behind him,

"Nate, what happened man?" Nathan turned around as saw the voice was coming from his brother.

(LUCAS POV)

Lucas had rushed over to his little brother's apartment after he got a visit from Haley's older sister Taylor. He had been confused to see her at his door, and that confusion only increased when she saw the sad look on her face when she said "You need to go see Nathan, he needs you right now, even if he doesn't know it,"

When he got there he opened the door slowly and saw Nathan sitting there staring off into space with an empty beer bottle on the table and a picture of him and Haley on the wedding day sitting in front of him and Lucas was heartbroken when he saw the sad, hurt, broken face on his brother. He quietly walked in and closed the door noticing that Nathan didn't even realize he was there, he stayed quiet for a moment before asking the question that has been bugging him since he saw Taylor on his front porch.

"Nate, what happened man?" and Nathan slowly turned around and said with a broken voice,

"Luke, she's gone, she left with Chris, and it's all my fault,"

Lucas's heart broke again as he heard his brothers voice crack and went to him and pulled him into a hug and whispered in his ear "She'll come back Nate, I know it,"
