Chapter 1: The Dream that Started It All
It was a sunny Monday morning. An alarm sounds off at 6 o'clock. An annoyed Haley tries to shut the alarm clock up before she gets tempted to knock it off her desk. After all, she was in the middle of quite an interesting dream:
"Hales?"
"What?"
Nathan nervously drums his fingers on the desk as he and Haley were hanging out in the library. As usual, he was having another tutor session with Haley. Only this time, the sight of Haley makes him nervous. He just kept drumming his fingers, finally muttering, "Nothing."
Haley just smiles at him, "Okay then, its nothing."
Nathan gives a weak smile. He has just handed Haley his corrected calculus exam, which Haley had tutored him for. He did not get an A, but he got as B, which is better than his usual calculus scores (C). Haley was going over the exam, trying to figure out why he didn't get some of the items right. Beside her, Nathan looked like a nervous wreck, just staring at her while he kept drumming her fingers. After a little while, he takes another shot.
"Hales?"
"What Nathan? Are you okay? You look like you can jump out of your seat any minute?"
Nathan just gives another weak smile as he runs a hand on his brown hair. "Umm... well, who wouldn't be if they were in my position."
Haley just looks at him quizzically, "And what's that suppose to mean?"
Nathan looks down briefly and takes a deep breath, as if trying to gather all the courage he can muster. While still looking down, he gives Haley a short answer, "I mean for what I'm about to do."
Haley just got even more intrigued, "And what would that be?"
Finally, Nathan could not hold it any longer, "This..." With his strong arms, he pulls Haley closer to him and gives her one long, passionate kiss.
After what seemed like an eternity, Nathan finally pulls away. He doesn't regret what he had just done. In fact, he liked how it felt so much. Still, he felt the need to say something to her, "I'm sorry."
Suddenly, Haley gives him a stern look. "Can we leave?"
As they stood up, Nathan felt so nervous. He kept apologizing to Haley, "Hales, I'm so sorry. I know I shouldn't have done that"
Haley just kept walking while Nathan trailed behind. As soon as they were out of the library, they found a little corner where Haley finally stopped. "Hales, I'm really....."
Before he knew it, Haley pushed him into the wall. She wrapped his arms around his neck and gave him yet another passionate kiss.
