Another idea that I came up with, we'll see where it goes. It basically follows most of the events that happened in high school, except Naley didn't get married and Haley didn't meet Chris or go on tour. After high school, Nathan and Haley went to separate colleges and eventually grew apart. Lucas and Nathan still talk, Haley and Peyton still talk, and Brooke still talks to all of them. Nathan is the point guard for the New York Knicks, Lucas is a writer, Brooke owns Clothes over Bros, Peyton owns Red Bedroom Records, and Haley is a singer that is signed with Red Bedroom. Just wanted to give a little background. I'll probably have another update to this story up pretty quick because I already know what I'm going to do for the next chapter.

Chapter 1

"Clay, this suit is so uncomfortable." Nathan grumbled, glancing over at his agent and bestfriend, shaking his head. He rubbed his fingers along the collar of his dark suit, sighing softly.

"Oh come on, buddy. You look great. Brooke Davis has natural talent. How would she feel if she heard you bagging on her suit? And Kylie looks great on your arm. Where is she, by the way?" Clay asked him, smirking slightly.

"I think she went to powder her nose or something." Nathan replied, shrugging his shoulders and shaking his head. He really didn't care that much.

"Do you mind if I take her home with me once the night is over? She might look good on your arm tonight, but she'd look way better in my bed." Clay laughed, winking at him, nudging him with his elbow softly.

"Be my guest, man. We're only here together because of the Rainstorm Body Spray." Nathan said, sighing and posing for a picture next to Clay. "I mean, assuming she'd want to go home with a bozo like you." He whispered to Clay, still smiling at the camera.

"I've got game, Nate. It doesn't hurt that my best friend is in the NBA either." Clay replied, smiling at the camera. "What are you auctioning off tonight, anyways?" He asked, humming slightly.

"Oh, you know. Signed jerseys, some basketballs. A few other things. Season tickets. The usual stuff. Merchandise, posters. Anything people want." Nathan shrugged, glancing at this friend.

"Brooke told me that she's auctioning off a date with you. Lucas told me he's also auctioning off a date with you. So maybe you'll meet the one tonight." Clay chuckled, guiding Nathan over to his table.

"Yeah, well I'm going to auction off a date with Lucas." Nathan grumbled, shaking his head.

"Oh smart, too bad he's engaged to Lindsey, huh?" Clay laughed, nudging Nathan and taking a seat next to him.

"Yeah, whatever. I like to see his head explode when he gets put into uncomfortable situations. It's not like anyone would buy it." Nathan replied, looking around. "Where is he anyways?"

"He's your brother, Nathan. You tell me." Clay said, looking around. "You should worry more about where your date is. She's been gone for awhile. What is this, the third girl that's snuck out the window?" He joked.

"That only happens to you, Clay." Nathan responded, shaking his head and looking down at the white table cloth, tugging on his tie softly.

"It was one time, Nathan. And that's because you told her that I had a STD. So it was your fault." Clay grumbled, rolling his eyes.

"Dude, she was giving you the crazy eyes. She talked about what your kids were going to look like within the first five minutes. I save you there, buddy." Nathan said, patting his shoulder. "Look, I'm going to go see if I can find either Lucas or Kylie. I'll be back. Don't order food without me. Or bring any girls to our table. Bring a date next time, I told you that you could." He grumbled.

"Yeah, but I was hoping to go home with your date so I thought that would be a little awkward." Clay shrugged, smiling at him.

Nathan rolled his eyes, "Whatever, Clay. Whatever." He laughed, shaking his head.

Nathan walked around for a little while, pausing to take pictures with different people. After five minutes of walking around, he spotted Kylie talking with a bunch of girls. He walked up to her, clearing his throat.

Kylie turned to look at him, "Hey you." She smiled, resting her hand on his chest.

"Uh, hey. I was just coming to check on you to make sure you were doing alright." He replied, looking down at her hand.

"I'm doing great. I'll find you in a little bit. I'm almost finished up." Kylie smiled at him, nodding.

Nathan nodded slowly, walking away and rolling his eyes. Honestly, he didn't really care for her much. She was an alright girl, but a little crazy, even for him. He headed back to the table him and Clay had been seated at, shaking his head when he saw a girl seated in his seat, with her back towards him. But just from the back of her, Nathan could tell she must be beautiful, so he was willing to give up his seat to her for the time being. Nathan sat in Lucas' seat at the table, looking up. He nearly fell out of his chair when he made eye contact with the familiar brown eyes that made his heart melt.

"Haley James?" Nathan asked in disbelief, looking at her with wide eyes.
