Jacqueline22393: Hey! Thanks for reviewing so soon! And the whole Florida New York thing, well, there's a reason for everything. Guess you'll have to keep reading and find out!
The next morning, Haley was in the shower washing the $700 conditioner out of her hair. The smell was so incredibly relaxing. Mangos mixed with vanilla and sugar, ah, it was to die for. Haley had just slipped into a wonderful day dream about being on the beach with some mysterious guy tanning in the sun. A sound completely foreign to the beach filled the room. Haley sighed angrily, but reached around her shower curtain and grabbed her Razor cell phone. It was Brooke.
"Yes, Brooke?" Haley asked.
"So I was wondering what you were wearing today." Brooke said as if she said it every single day.
"Oh, I don't know."
"Come on, I know you know. Don't pull that with me." Brooke demanded.
"Fine, probably a mini and a tank top." Haley caved in.
"Great!" See you soon. Brooke and Haley hung up at the same time. Haley pushed the phone back out of the shower and resumed to her hair. Half an hour later, Haley had finished showering, eaten and brushed her teeth. Now, she was searching through her closet for those slouchy boots her mom sent her from Singapore last year.
"Yes," Haley hissed. Setting the boots at the foot of her Victorian style bed she walked back into her bathroom. Doing her hair and applying her make up had become second nature to her. Finally, she was coming down the stairs in a destroyed jean mini skirt from Elie Saab Couture, a black long sleeved off the shoulder top with those adorable black slouchy boots. Peyton and Brooke whistled with approval at Haley's appearance. After breaking up with Sam, Haley didn't think she would be so happy and excited to get back on the market. They all shook their asses especially sexy today just to show off how hot they knew they looked.
"I'll see you guys later," Peyton said before breaking off from her two best friends and headed down the art hall.
"Love you, Peyt," they called after her.
"I have to go to my locker really fast," Haley commented to Brooke.
"Okay, so I'll see you in History?" Brooke looked on.
"Definitely," Haley replied. The boots felt silky smooth on her shaved legs that she knew were amazing. One guy especially caught her eye as she walked by. She knew his name, it was Nathan, maybe. She didn't know much about him. Brooke surely would.
"Brooke, I wanted to talk to you." Haley said as they sat down in their usual seats in the back.
"Okay, what's up?"
"So do you know Nathan Scott?" Haley asked hopefully.
"Know him? He's all anyone ever talks about!"
"Really, then why haven't I heard anything?"
"Well, you don't hear much gossip. You and Peyton are just way to high up in the social scale that gossip is way below you." Brooke said with a straight face.
"What? You are more 'popular' than me and Peyton! How do you hear everything?" Haley blushed.
"Because I actually want to know what's going on around the school so I make an effort to be informed." Brooke smiled and nodded her head in Nathan's direction.
"So what about him?" Haley asked following Brooke's gaze.
"Nathan Scott, he's number 23 on the basketball team, captain or something. Always hooks up with at least three girls a week, half brothers with Lucas Scott." Brooke listed.
"Half brothers?" Haley hadn't heard about the infamous Dan Scott yet.
"Okay, um, Lucas's mom and Nathan's Dad hooked up in High School and had Lucas. But then Dan moved on to Deb and had Nathan. Now he totally abandoned Lucas and Karen and pretty much lives off Deb's money. I've heard he pressures Nathan a lot to be good in basketball just because he was the star in his days or something." Brooke rolled her eyes at the thought.
"Wow, that must be tough on their friendship," Haley commented.
"Yeah, they pretty much just gang up on Dan when ever they get the chance." Brooke started to whisper as the class started. They continued their conversation until the teacher noticed they weren't focusing at all on the movie about the reproduction of spiders. Catching Mr. Angus's eye, Haley turned away from Brooke but winked signaling that this wasn't over. By lunch, Haley had the entire story on Nathan Scott fresh in her head. Brooke joined them at the table in the back, where they always sit. As soon as Sam walked in, Brooke switched to the other side of Haley, saying that there wasn't any room for him. Haley made sure not to make eye contact with him.
"Hey, look who's here," Brooke whispered in Haley's ear. Haley looked up and saw Nathan making his way to the table opposite them. Brooke waved him and Lucas over.
"Hey," she said invitingly to them. Wow, she never realized how hot Lucas actually was! Brooke didn't realize she was staring until Nathan cleared his throat. She blushed and turned to Haley who hadn't missed a thing.
"What? He's incredibly gorgeous. I'm allowed to stare if he's that hot." Brooke protested.
"I didn't say a word." Haley held up her hand in surrender.
"Good. Let's keep it that way," Brooke countered. Haley shot her a look that said "I will if you will." Turning back to the new comers, they noticed that one more boy had joined them.
"Hey, I'm Jake." He announced himself.
"I know you," Brooke stated, "We worked on an English assignment last year together." Jake nodded in remembrance. Some how, Peyton couldn't take her eyes off of him! There was something about this guy. He seemed much calmer and more down to earth that any other guy she had ever met. Haley and Brooke would know what to do.
Lunch was exciting. Meeting the two Scott brothers and getting to know Jake was beyond perfect.
"I need to talk to you guys about something." Peyton announced.
"What's up Peyt?" Haley asked giving her other best friend her full attention. They were sitting in the student center on the couches that were claimed 'theirs.'
"I don't know. There's just something about Jake, I can't put it into words." Peyton explained.
"You want to have lots of sex and babies." Brooke informed her bluntly.
"What?" Haley and Peyton asked at the same time.
"You think he's calmer and more down to earth than any other guy you have ever met. And for the entire time at lunch, you couldn't take your eyes off him and you don't even know why." Brooke explained.
"Wow, you're good. But how does that mean I want to have lots of sex and babies?" Peyton awed.
"It doesn't. It means that you should get to know him and you could quite possibly have a relationship if it all works out." Haley cut in. She knew Brooke's explanation would have a lot to do with sex.
"So what do I do about it?" Peyton asked.
"I say you go for it." Haley said. So she did. Apparently, Jake had been thinking the same thing and the next day he asked her if she wanted to hang out sometime. They all sat together again for lunch and were joking about something funny when an announcement started over the intercom.
"Students, students, please quiet down. The staff has an announcement for the Juniors. If you are not a Junior, please remain quiet so they may hear. Will the entire Junior class meet in the auditorium immediately after lunch. I repeat, immediately after lunch. Thank you," and with that, the announcer clicked off.
"I wonder what he wants." Peyton observed
"Well we're done so we're going to go. See you guys there." Brooke said noticing that Lucas's plate was empty along with her own.
"Yeah, see you." Lucas stood up and followed Brooke. Haley turned to Peyton and whispered in her ear so that none of the others could hear, "We so totally have to hook them up,"
What do you think? There's going to be more Naley and Jeyton in the near future so keep reading and reviewing!
XOXO
