Here's Chapter 2, I hope you enjoy it!
Let me know what you think!
As Haley was on the way home from dropping Jamie off at preschool, she began to think about what she would spend her day doing. Now that Jamie wasn't home with her all day she would need to occupy her time with something. She enjoyed gardening, reading, and the house definitely needed cleaning. As she turned onto her street, she saw a man in the yard across from her house.
"He must be my new neighbor, I should introduce myself" she thought.
Haley parked her car in the garage and made her way over the neighbor's house. As Haley approached the man, he turned around and she was taken aback. He had raven black hair and piercing blue eyes. When he saw Haley he showed a beautiful white smile. He was attractive to say the least.
"I could get used to this… wait! What am I thinking? I am a grown woman and mother. I can't think like this" she thought.
"Hi, I'm Haley and I just wanted to introduce myself. I live across the street."
"Well hello there hottie. My name is Nathan Scott." This irked Haley, but she just ignored it.
"Did you just move here to Tree Hill?"
"Yeah, I used to play basketball for the LA Lakers, but I got injured and can't play anymore. I wanted a new start at life so I moved to Tree Hill. I love small towns and the coast, so this was the perfect place."
Haley knew he looked familiar, Jamie had a poster of Nathan on his bedroom wall.
"Well I hope you like Tree Hill and if you need anything don't be afraid to ask."
"Don't worry I will." Nathan flashed Haley a smirk.
Haley melted at this. He was just too cute.. "What am I doing? I cannot fall for this arrogant guy's tricks."
"Ok well I will see you later then."
"Yeah you will, in my dreams" Nathan thought as Haley walked off.
Nathan thought Haley was cute, but she was definitely mysterious. Nathan saw her leave this morning with a little boy, but he no man. Nathan would get to the bottom of it.
Brooke Davis burst through the front door screaming, "Haley, have you seen the hot guy across the street? If he lives there I will come over more often!"
"Hey Brooke. And yes that is my new neighbor. His name is Nathan Scott and he is some big –shot basketball player."
"Do I hear some sarcasm in that voice?" Brooke asked.
"Well I went over this morning to introduce myself and he kind of gave me the creeps. I think he was trying to hit on me."
"And why is that a bad thing?"
"Brooke, I am a single mother trying to raise a 4 year old boy. The last thing I need is some creep hitting on me."
"It's been two years Haley; I think it's time you move on. It's what Matt would want. Besides have you looked over there lately?" Brooke asked while dragging Haley to the window.
Haley looked through the front window to find Nathan mowing his front yard, shirtless. It was a hot, sunny day and sweat was dripping off Nathan's taught, defined muscles.
"Now don't even try to tell me you haven't noticed how attractive he is. And just look at those muscles."
Haley just laughed and rolled her eyes. Typical Brooke Davis.
