More Than What It Seems ch1
"You all set for tonight Hales?" Brooke asked as she handed over Haley's dress to her.
"Nope, sure you know how nervous I get about these things," she replied playing with the bag the dress was in.
"Haley, you're a professional singer. Tonight should be a walk in the park for you," she commented to her.
"Normally it is," she spoke softly.
"What makes tonight any different?" she questioned to her.
"I'm singing my new song and I want everyone to love it," she replied to her.
"Don't be silly, of course everyone is going to love it," she replied trying to make her still more confident.
"I hope so. I better go if I want to be ready on time," Haley spoke as she was leaving.
"Well, have a great night and enjoy yourself," she commented to her.
"I'll try," she spoke as she walked out of Brooke's store.
As Brooke went back to her desk she seen that her phone was ringing, "Hey Big brother," she spoke into her cell.
"Where are you?!" he questioned to her.
"I'm at the store why?" she replied a little confused.
"Great. I'll be there in a few minutes," he commented before ending the call.
Brooke was all confused when Nathan rushed into the store in a panic," Hey sis, I need a suit for tonight," he commented to her.
"Okay calm down," Brooke commented to him.
"Brooke hurry I only have an hour to get ready," he spoke trying to rush her along.
"Where are you going to anyways?" she questioned to him.
"The team have a charity event to go to tonight at the Hilton and I forgot all about it," he explained to her.
"Oh yeah I heard a few people talking about that event," she spoke thinking back to Haley.
"Um yeah it should be a good night," he replied to her.
"This suit should do you," she commented handing one over to her.
"Thanks sis, you're the best," he spoke taking it off her.
"You're welcome, you better call me. I want all the details of your night," she commented as he was leaving.
"Bye," he spoke not giving into her.
Later that evening Haley was backstage prepare to go on stage when Peyton came to check on her. "You already Haley," she questioned to her.
"Nope, she replied feeling her nerves get the better of her.
"Relax, have you done your singing under the table thing?" she questioned to her.
"Yes and it didn't help," she replied to her feeling sick.
"Just, focus on the back wall and don't look at anyone," Peyton spoke giving her some advice.
"Thanks," Haley replied with a small smile.
"Good because its Showtime," Peyton commented to her.
Haley walked out onto the stage as her music started playing and just focused on the back wall like Peyton had told her. She sang a few lines of the song before letting herself relax and scanned the room looking through the crowd.
"Who's the singer?" Nathan questioned to Lucas.
"That's Haley, she is one of Peyton new singer," he replied to him.
"Well, she has an amazing voice," he replied to him.
"Yeah, she is great. I'm actually surprised you haven't heard of her before," Lucas commented to him.
"I am to," he replied looking over at him.
"I know that look. Nathan she isn't your type of girl," he commented to him.
"How do you know that?" he replied to him.
"I don't, if you got involved with her and hurt her. I know for a fact Peyton would kick your ass," he commented to him.
"Well you're right about the Peyton thing. That doesn't mean I can't at least chat to her," he replied smiling at him.
"Don't say I didn't warn you," Lucas to him.
"Okay, he spoke watching Haley heard over to the bar.
When he reached the bar he made sure that he was standing beside Haley, "I'll have a beer and a wine for the lady," he commented to the bar tender nodding over to her empty glass.
"You didn't need to do that," Haley spoke turning to look at the person beside her.
"Think of it as a thank you for letting us hear that great music," he spoke smiling at her.
"Well thank you," she spoke feeling relaxed knowing at least one person enjoyed her song.
"You're welcome um..," he spoke pretending not to know her name.
"Haley," she spoke softly to him.
"Lovely name for such a lovely lady," he spoke as the bartender sat their drinks in front of them.
"Thanks and what is your name?" she questioned to him.
"Nathan," he replied to her smirking.
"Well Nathan, thanks for the drink but I better be going," she commented to him.
"Let me walk you out," he suggested to her.
"Okay, she spoke not seeing any harm in it.
As they walked out together there was a few cameras taking pictures, they weren't close enough for them to make anything of it.
"Come this way," Nathan spoke leading her away from the cameras.
"Thank you," she spoke following him.
"I didn't want those camera guys getting the wrong idea," he commented to her.
"You're right," she replied to him smiling.
"Thanks for chatting to me tonight Haley," he commented to her.
"It's the least I could do after you not taking your eyes off me during my song," she flirted to him.
"Well, I couldn't help it. You look stunning and your voice is amazing," he spoke stepping a little closer to her.
"Thanks," she spoke in a whisper.
"You're welcome," he replied lowering his head to hers.
"Haley soon realised what was happening and stepped toward put her head to the side so her lips could connect softly to his. There kiss was soft and sweet, at the same time there was this great spark that lit up something in both their bodies.
"Mm, maybe I'll see you again sometime," Haley spoke a few minutes after the kiss.
"Oh I really hope we do meet again," he replied as he watched her walk away to her limo ride home.
Both their heads were spinning with how amazing the kiss was. They were both hoping that it would be long until they met each other again.
