Chapter Two

Haley's POV

Haley sat in the bed of her house. Nathan was off who knows where doing who knows what. She sighed and grabbed her phone. She opened it up and dialed Lucas. He answered on the third ring, "Hey, Hales. What's up?" Haley laid back in the bed, "Is Nathan with you?"

"Yeah. Why?"

Haley checked the clock, "Because it's like midnight and I can't sleep unless he's with me. And since I'm pregnant, I need my sleep. Can you send him home, please?"

"Yeah. Sure. He'll be there in about ten minutes. Sorry to keep him away from you so long."

Haley shook her head, even though she knew he couldn't do it, "It's fine. I just want my husband back." Lucas chuckled, "Alright, Hales. He's on his way."

"Thank you, Luke."

"You're welcome. Goodnight."

"Goodnight." Haley hung up the phone. She placed the phone back on the dresser and laid back in the bed again. She had gotten so used to having Nathan with her when she slept with him that she couldn't sleep without him. She needed to feel his arms around her, his heart beating against her cheek.

Haley stared up at the ceiling until she heard the door open and Nathan's voice call out, "Haley James?" Haley smiled, "You forgot Scott." Nathan appeared in the doorway and smirked at her, "Haley James Scott. How are you feeling?"

Haley pushed herself up to her elbows and watched her husband get dressed for bed, which consisted of him being shirtless and shorts, "Well, I was feeling lonely, but now, not so much. Come here." Nathan climbed into the bed and kissed Haley's belly before laying down beside her.

Haley placed her head into the crook of Nathan's shoulder and sighed, "I never thought I would be jealous of Lucas. But ever since you left the river court, you've been with him, I assume."

She felt Nathan laugh, "I'm sorry. I'm just working on something with him." Haley looked up at him, "What are you working on?" Nathan shook his head, "Can't tell you. Sorry." Haley placed her head back to his shoulder. She was already feeling tired, "So now you're keeping secrets from me." Nathan stroked her hair, "You'll love this secret when you learn it. It just isn't ready yet."

Haley shook her head, "I don't like secrets." She kept her face away from Nathan so that he couldn't see her worried expression. She knew Nathan could figure out that she was upset, but she didn't want to start anything.

Haley felt Nathan's fingers gently grab her chin and moved her head so that she was looking at him again. He had concern in his eyes, "Baby, I promise it's not bad." Haley nodded and lifted her head. Their lips met in a kiss and Haley sighed into it, "I love you, Nathan." Nathan kissed her forehead, "I love you, Haley."

Haley rested her head back against his shoulder and closed her eyes. She felt as Nathan's breathing became heavier. She loved to feel his chest rise and fall with his breathing. She felt his arm wrap around her waist.

She looked up at him one last time before she went to sleep. His head was angled down towards hers. Haley smiled at the look of true happiness on his face. He was her heart, her soul. He may be keeping a secret but at least she knew he loved her.

Haley closed her eyes one last time and fell asleep.
