Hey guys! So this will be my first story and of course it is a Naley fan fiction. I'm absolutely obsessed with One Tree Hill; especially with Nathan Scott. He's such a hottie. Anyways, this story will be about Nathan and Haley and there are quite a few twists in it. Hope you enjoy! Please review :)
Chapter 1: Haley Bob James and Nathan Royal Scott
"Hales, focus," Lucas sighed, tapping on the thick textbook in front of him and Haley. Haley threw him a devious smile. It was 3am and Lucas had been trying to get Haley to study for the past 6 hours.
Tomorrow was the big Trig test and she was no where ready. Or so Lucas thought.
Haley was actually really smart. Her test scores reflected that but her attitude towards school… not so much.
"Luke, chill. You've seen my test scores. I'm going to do fine," she reassured Lucas, rolling her eyes at her best friend's tense expression. Lucas was so uptight.
"Yes but Haley, this counts for 55% of your final grade. If you mess this up, you would mess up everything else too," Lucas reminded her.
"Alright alright," she replied, throwing up her arms in mock surrounded and a smile playing on the corners of her lips, "I'll study. You get some rest. You look like shit."
"Wow, thanks for the confidence boost," Lucas retorted, smiling slightly.
Haley smirked. "Night night lover boy," she cooed.
Lucas rolled his eyes. Ever since Haley found out about him and Brooke she had been calling him 'lover boy' and it irritated him slightly.
But it was also reassuring. Her teasing meant that she was okay with him and Brooke and that meant a lot to him since he knew that Haley didn't care much for "blonde, busty, cheerleaders".
Lucas had pointed out countless times that Brooke wasn't blonde but Haley didn't want to hear any of it.
She's a feisty one, Lucas thought before snuggling into bed. He managed to catch a glimpse of Haley's chestnut brown hair flying out the door before his eyes slammed itself shut.
As usual Haley had aced the test, scoring an incredible 97% and bumping her final score up to an A.
Immediately after Mr. Jagielski announced that Haley got the highest score, Haley turned around, a big smirk plastered onto her face.
She gave him a look that read "I told you so" before flipping back around and slouching back down in her seat.
Haley's attendance had improved in the past few months. After Lucas and her mother's constant nagging, Haley decided that she would go to school more often. If it meant that her and Lucas could talk about something else besides her spotty attendance, she would do it.
You have no idea how annoying Lucas could be.
"Lucas Scott, 79%," Mr. Jagielski announced and Lucas grimaced. He had tried so hard and studied so much for this test yet he only got a 79%? Haley on the other hand had barely studied and she got a 97%. The world is such an unfair place.
The sound of the bell ringing punctured Lucas's sulk. He got up slowly and started roughly thrusting his books back into his bag. Haley turned around, about to say some snarky remark but one look at Lucas's face and she knew that it wasn't a good time.
Though Haley was a total badass and usually very inconsiderate and selfish, she had grown to care deeply for Lucas. He was, after all, her first and only best friend. She wouldn't do anything to hurt him and throughout all these years, she stayed incredibly loyal to him.
"Hey, you okay?" she asked softly, touching his arm gently. Lucas took one look at her worried face and immediately all the frustration and resentment he felt towards her dissipated. It wasn't her fault that she was naturally smart.
"Yeah," he sighed, "it's just that I worked really hard on that test."
Haley gave him a sympathetic smile. "Oh Luke, you did great. Look I have to go now, I have some stuff to do. I'll see you later?" Haley said, a slight guilty and apologetic tinge worming itself into her tone.
"Haley…" Lucas drifted off.
"No Luke, it's okay. Don't worry about it. I'll be fine," she replied quickly before giving Lucas a brief hug and dashing off down the corridor.
Lucas gazed out into the dense crowd, hoping desperately that Haley was just rushing to another lesson but he knew better.
She was gone.
Haley dashed out of the school, glad that she was finally free from that hellhole. She didn't understand how anyone could stand being in there.
It was like being suffocated with a bunch of hormonal teenagers, just dying to be accepted and liked. She hated that. She hated people trying to be someone they weren't.
Haley got into her car and let out a soft sigh. She was so happy to be back behind the wheel. Now let's get something straight about Haley shall we? She loved her car.
She loved her car more than anything in the world and if anything happened to it, she would be sure to make someone pay.
The musky scent of the old 1998 Mustang floated into her nose, giving her a brief sense of calm and stillness.
Haley closed her eyes, simply enjoying the feeling of being back in control. She felt so out of her element back in that building. She felt as if she was being controlled and she didn't like that.
It was scary not being in control and Haley didn't ever want to feel scared again.
She jammed her key into the ignition and sped off, leaving a cloud of dust behind her and nothing more.
Nathan had spent the past 3 hours shooting free throws and had made nearly 85% of them. It had been a rough day between him and Rachel.
God why did she have to be such a demanding bitch? First Nathan wasn't open enough and then when Nathan started opening up to her, she started backing away and told him to deal with his own problems himself.
Swish, another basket was made.
He couldn't ever please Rachel. It was either he was too cold or he was being too clingy. There was no in between with her, ever.
Swish.
Sometimes he wished he could just end it all. Just break up with her and be done with it. But no. He knew that his dad wouldn't let him.
The Gatinas and the Scott family were incredible close and Dan would never let Nathan do anything to jeopardize that.
Swish.
"Hey man," a voice came from behind him. Nathan released the ball and yet it again it went through the hoop without a single glitch. He turned around to find Jake Jagielski glaring at him.
Jake was Rachel's second cousin and he was fiercely protective of her. He knew that the only reason Jake was so protective was because Jake had a massive crush on her. He knew it, she knew it and she always used it to her advantage.
Sighing he turned back around and shot another perfect free throw.
"Dude, I'm talking to you," Jake yelled. Nathan could hardly care less. Of course. Trust Rachel to send Jake to talk to him.
"What do you want?" Nathan asked, continuing to shoot and not missing a single one. His voice oozed boredom and it infuriated Jake. How dare he stay here and shoot hoops while Rachel was back home crying her eyes out. He should be next to her comforting her.
"I want you to turn around and talk to me like a real man," Jake yelled yet again and this time Nathan listened, slowly swiveling around to face the red faced Jake Jagielski.
"Yes. What do you want Jagielski?" Nathan replied, his teeth gritted. This Jagielski kid was starting to get on his nerves.
"Why do you always do this to her? You break her and then leave her there, just expecting someone else to mend her for you. Then when she's fine again she comes running back to you. I don't get what she sees in you. You're nothing in my eyes. You're disgusting," Jake snarled, his voice coming out in a rush.
Nathan's eyes narrowed. He hated it when people talked shit about him when they didn't even know him.
He took a few steps towards Jake, hoping to scare him off right then but Jake stood his ground.
"First of all, this isn't my fault. Why don't you go ask your precious Rachel why I called her a bitch in the first place? She accused me of cheating on her, again! I thought that it would have gone through to her thick skull by now that if I did cheat on her I would simply have just told her. I wouldn't have bothered hiding it," Nathan said, his tone low and dangerous.
He took another step towards Jake and now he could see Jake starting to sweat. There was no way Jake Jagielski could take on Nathan Scott all by himself. The thought brought a smirk to Nathan's face.
"Second of all, be careful with what you say Jagielski. You don't know me. Don't think that you do," he continued, still walking. By now he was just a few steps away from Jake, who looked scared shitless.
"And lastly, don't ever, and I mean ever, talk to me like that again," Nathan whispered in Jake's ear before thrusting the ball fiercely into Jake's hands, causing the wind to be knocked out of him slightly.
Nathan continued walking, not looking back once but he knew. He knew that Jake got the message.
"Oh and Jagielski, lock up will you," Nathan added. The gym door then slammed shut and Jake was left standing in the gym, breathing heavily and just thankful that Nathan Scott had not beat the shit out of him.
That's all guys! What do you think? Leave me reviews and thanks for reading. The next chapter will be up really soon.
