Chapter one:
Haley panicked, she knew Nathan was in danger, but she couldn't find him.
She ran and ran, until finally she heard voices, and crashed through the door that was separating her from her husband.
Bang!
Haley screamed as she heard the shot and watched Nathan fall to the floor in front of her, blood blossoming through his shirt.
She fell to her knees and sobbed uncontrollably, cupping Nathan's face with her hands.
Haley screamed and sat bolt upright in bed, still dazed and not quite sure of where she was or what was happening. She was panting heavily.
Nathan was immediately awake and surrounded Haley with his strong arms.
"Ssssh! Haley, its ok, it was just a dream. You're safe. I'm here."
Haley started crying, memories of her disturbing nightmare still haunting her, and she wrapped her arms around Nathan's neck, incredibly glad of his embrace.
Nathan held her for several minutes, rocking back and forth, until eventually her sobs died down.
Nathan stroked Haley's hair and placed a kiss on the top of her head.
"Feeling better?" Nathan asked her.
Haley pulled back slightly from the embrace and nodded.
She ran her hand down Nathan's face, and he closed his eyes as she did so.
Then her gaze fell down to Nathan's bare chest and her hand followed her gaze down to where she had seen him shot.
Running her hand over the area of Nathan's chest that had housed the bullet in her nightmare, she shuddered slightly.
"Hey, Haley its okay." Nathan reassured her. "What happened in your dream? Did something happen to me?" Nathan guessed.
Haley could only nod, as tears threatened to fall again.
"I'm sorry, I'm being pathetic aren't I?" Haley said.
"No, of course you're not," Nathan said soothingly.
"I… I knew you were in danger but I couldn't find you, and then when I did get to you… somebody shot you and you were just lying on the floor…and there was so much blood…"
Nathan pulled Haley in for a fierce hug. He knew that if he'd had the same nightmare about Haley he'd be just as much of a wreck, if not more so. In fact, he told her so.
"Really?" Haley asked, clearly touched by Nathan's show of emotion.
"Really," Nathan answered.
"I love you," Haley told him. She brushed her lips against Nathan's and then deepened the kiss.
When they finally broke apart, Nathan said, "I love you too."
"You think you can get back to sleep?" he asked her.
Haley seemed to consider this for a moment, "If you hold me."
"Of course. I wouldn't have us sleeping any other way," Nathan answered smiling.
They lay down in each other's arms, and soon Haley's dreams were filled with much more pleasant scenarios involving Nathan.
Nathan awoke to see Haley propped up on one elbow, gently stroking the side of his face.
"Morning," Haley greeted him.
Nathan smiled and pulled her in for a kiss.
"Feeling better this morning?" Nathan asked Haley with a hint of concern in his voice.
Haley smiled at his concern, "Much better, thanks to you. I'm serious – last night you were fantastic. I don't know what I would have done if you hadn't been here to comfort me."
"Lucky for you I'll always be here then."
"So there's no getting rid of you?" Haley joked.
"Nope. You Mrs Scott, are stuck with me forever! And so is this little one."
Nathan peeled back the covers to plant a kiss on Haley's stomach where she was just beginning to show.
Haley giggled and ran her hand through Nathan's hair. She ran her other hand over her stomach. "Well then I guess we're very lucky, aren't we little one."
Nathan straightened up, with one hand lingering on Haley's stomach and the other arm draped around Haley's shoulders. Haley placed her hand on Nathan's arm.
Haley sighed, "We've got to get up and go to school soon."
"No we don't," Nathan shot back quickly, doing his best puppy dog eyes.
Haley laughed. "We really should…" but she didn't get much further as Nathan had distracted her rather successfully with his mouth. The couple didn't emerge from the bedroom for a long time after that.
