A/N….ok people…this fic starts after the S2 finale…the title "Playing for keeps" is a song title by Switchfoot….i do admit, I never actually read the lyrics nor listen to the song, but the title jumped out at me as if to scream "pick me for the title of your fic"..ok so enough with my crazies and on with the story…ps…feedback is GREATLY appreciated! Oh and also the intro is EXTREMLY short, if you've read my other fics u will know that my actual chapter aren't nearly as short as this intro, so please bare with me here!

Intro

Nathan stood, standing in the doorway staring at his wife. She looked tired and upset but mostly scared.

"Nice" Nathan scoffed before stepping back and slamming the door in her face.

He turned around and slowly slid down the door to sit on the floor, bringing his knees to his chest and his head to his hands, clearly distressed.

Meanwhile, outside Haley was staring at the door, not actually knowing what to do. Slowly she nodded her head, picked up her bags and trudged back down the driveway and out onto the road.
