"I...I want to break up."

Nathan couldn't believe what he was saying. For three years now, he's always been positive that Haley James-Scott was the one.

She was smart, funny, and cute. She has alot of things going for her. That was the problem. No matter how hard he tried,

Nathan wasn't ever going to measure up to her.

"Why Nathan? I thought you loved me" Haley said in a whisper, trying to hold back the tears ready to burst out.

Nathan looked away. He couldn't stand seeing the girl he really cared about, feel so heartbroken. Especially, because he caused this pain.

"Nathan! Look at me!" She demanded. The tears came out as fast as they formed.

"Haley..I just...don't know." Nathan said, his voice was horse. His throat was dry, he just felt so bad.

Haley gasped. "You don't know? YOU DON'T KNOW?, how do you NOT know, Nathan!"

Sighing, Nathan shook his head. Still looking downward, he withdrew from the house that he used to share with Haley James.

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

Proceeding his way down the street, Nathan reminisced on the last 3 years. Of course, he didn't want to leave Haley. But when he was with her, it always seemed that he wanted something...someone else. Somebody that he could act goofy, and just be the real Nathan Scott around.

Nathan's thoughts were interrupted as he felt a light tap on his shoulder.

He shifted his body around to see a young brunette standing in front of him. Right away, he smiled. He hadn't seen his brother's ex-girlfriend, Brooke, since the prom incident. He missed seeing her smiley face. He often thought about her. How she always seemed to smile and laugh, even at the worst moments. Those kind of things made Nathan wonder. Why do I always think about Brooke? Could it be a sign?

"HI NATE!" Brooke said excitedly, her eyes filled with joy.

Nathan chuckled at the sight of this, and replied "Hey Brooke."

He wanted to ask a million questions. How shes been. If she's been talking to Lucas. Peyton? Was she seeing anybody? All these questions...he just didn't know how to ask them.

"So Brooke, how've ya been?" Nathan tried to sound casual.

Brooke smiled "the Brooke smile", dimples and all, as she replied.

"I've been really good, Natey. What about you? Hows Haaa-leeyy" Brooke cooed while elbowing Nathan's sides.

As she made close contact, chills ran through Nathan's body. Never has he felt this way. He's always thought of Brooke as a bestfriend, or a sister. The thought scared him a little, but most of all, surprised him.

"We broke up." Nathan mumbled. He still felt bad about leaving Haley.

Brooke almost screamed. "WHAT? WHEN? WHY? WHO BROKE UP WITH WHO? DID SHE CRY? DID YOU CRY? TELL ME EVERYTHING."

Nathan suddenly smiled at her many questions. Girls always do that, but he liked the fact that Brooke cared so much, as if she'd been waiting for this.

"I broke up with her, today, because i've been having some different feelings. And yes, she cried."

Brooke slapped his arm. "NATHAN SCOTT! WHY?" By this time, she was yelling.

Nathan suddenly felt ashamed, as his face dropped he realized that maybe she wasn't waiting for this. Maybe he was supposed to stay with Haley. Maybe he shouldn't have told Brooke.

Brooke sighed. "Okay... Im sorry I yelled. Im sure there was a reason."

Nathan thought to himself. Yeah and I think I know what it was.
