ALL THE THINGS YOU WANNA SAY BUT CAN'T

ALL THE THINGS YOU WANNA DO BUT CAN'T

It was the time that Haley was away on tour with Chris Keller. Nathan missed Haley, but Peyton missed Nathan more. She couldn't watch how sad Nathan was, you could see he missed his tutor and wife.

"Nath. If you want someone to talk, you know you can come to me right!"

Peyton looked in Nathan's eyes and he nodded.

"Thanks."

She walked into her room and watched her walls. There was a picture of Jake and Jenny. Of course she misses them but he wanted her to be happy no matter what.

"I could hold you in my arms and it still wouldn't be long enough."

Peyton remembered the time when he said that, he stood at the door and they just kissed and cried together.

She felled so angry and sad that he had to leave, she also felt happy just remembering the time they spent together. Kissing, laughing, crying.

"Ow Jake. Where are you now?"

"Ow sorry, am I interrupting?" Nathan stood at the door where Jake stood when they kissed and he was holding his arms on her hips.

"No, come in." Peyton sat on her bed and Nathan moved from the door and sat next to Peyton.

It was quiet for a while. It wasn't weird at all, it felt good. Just being with someone who is also missing someone who you love with all your heart.

"You said that I could come to you when I wanted to talk to someone. First I thought it would be weird, because our history." Nathan didn't looked at Peyton when he said that he just looked at the drawings on her wall. His favourite was the one with: "But sometimes they come back"

Peyton thought also that it would be weird and she didn't knew the answer on his sentence.

"Do they come back Peyt?"

Peyton looked at Nathan and saw him looking at the drawing. She looked at it, and knew he wanted Haley back.

"Honestly, I don't know." Peyton wanted to cry.

"People always leave, right?" One tear was falling down on her bed.

"Don't cry. You're missing Jake, I'm missing Haley. What can we do?" Nathan was getting wet eyes.

"I know it Nathan! We can look for them! We'll find them." Peyton stopped dropping tears on her bed and looked Nathan in the eyes and smiled.

"I don't know Peyton. School, basketball, and my dad. I want to, but I don't think I can do it."

"We can do it! Just a weekend. We will use 2 weekends, one weekend for Haley and one for Jake."

Nathan liked that idea.

"Yeah. Okay. Tomorrow it's Friday we will leave after school. See ya at school. Bye."

Peyton saw Nathan walking away and she looked at his butt.

"Still so nice."

CHAPTER 2.

ONE WAY OR ANOTHER I'LL BE COMING HOME TO YOU

"Hey Peyton. I'm at 3 at yours, be ready." Nathan winked and smiled.

"I'll be ready. See you then." Peyton winked back and walked away, home.

She felt happy but she didn't know why. Maybe cause they will find Jake and Jenny or that she is gonna spend the weekend with Nathan. Just to be with someone.

"Okay. Toothbrush? Check! Make-up? Check! Cell phone? Check! Money? O damn."

Peyton walked downstairs and grabbed the money off the table.

She heard Nathan's car outside. She opened the door and saw Nathan getting out of the car.

"Dude, help me with my bags."

Peyton laughed and Nathan laughed back.

"Yeah sure." Nathan walked into her house and grabbed two bags. "Girl, what do you have in those bags!" They laughed.

The road seemed lonely. "You have some CD's with you?" Nathan asked Peyton.

"Duhh. No life without music." Peyton said, hoping that Nathan wouldn't think of Haley and wondered if that was her life now.

They listened to Acceptance, the song: I miss you.

"Yeah. Nice choice." They laughed again but not like before. This time they stopped laughing and looked into each others eyes. It were a few seconds but it seemed forever.

"Nath! Watch the road."

The time they spend in the car seemed short, they had so much fun. Talking about Tim, Bevin and Skills.

"Yeah so how is your girlfriend, what was his name? Tim?" Peyton asked and they couldn't stop laughing.

They stopped the car at a motel.

"Shall we spend the night here?" Nathan asked.

"Yeah sure. Where else?" Peyton and Nathan walked together into the motel.

"Can I help you?" asked the person who worked there.

"Yeah, we wanted to spend the night here." Nathan said.

"Okay, one bedded room or a two bedded room?"

"What does it cost?" asked Peyton.

"Well a one bedded room is 15 dollar and a two bedded room is 25 dollar."

"One bedded room please." Said Nathan. They said the wanted to save money. Who knows what they will have to pay everywhere.

"Okay. 15 dollars please." They gave the money and accepted the key to their room.

There were 4 guys talking and looking at Peyton. "Hey blondie. Wanna come over?"

"No thanks." Peyton walked faster and Nathan walked along.

"No? Who do you think you are?" They guys followed them. Their voices seemed angry.

"Peyton walk to the room. I will handle this." Nathan whispered in Peyton's ear.

"No Nathan. They will let you bleed." Peyton grabbed his hand. Nathan was shocked. They looked at each other. "Yeah they will beat me, but I want you save. No go!" Nathan walked towards the guys. "What's your problem? We just wanted the blonde."

Peyton was running towards her room and started to cry. She opened the door and watched trough the window the guys beating Nathan. She couldn't watch long so she walked away.

Peyton waited and waited. She walked out of her room.

Nathan was laying on the floor outside, bleeding. "Nathan! Why? We have to get you to our room."

Nathan was to tired to speak so he closed his eyes and all his strength that was left he used it to walk. He leaned on Peyton and when they arrived the room, she putted him on the bed.

Peyton grabbed a chair and sat next to him, she grabbed his hand. "Why did you do that? I love you for doing that. But why?"

"All I wanted was you to be safe. Who knows what those guys would do with you girl" Nathan was so tired so he felt asleep.

Peyton saw it and she was tired too. She kissed him on the forehead.

"Sweet dreams." She said and felt asleep next to him on the bed.
