A/N: First off thank you for the reviews! Please keep reviewing. Also there is a bit of swearing in this chapter. When people are upset they tend to swear. If it really bothers anyone, let me know and I will edit it out.

I hope you like it! Please review.

Chapter 2: Upstairs and Outside

'Hi,' he said and smiled at her. 'I'm Drew.'

'Haley,' she said. The boy in front of her was quite good looking. He had the greenest eyes Haley had ever seen and they went well with his brown hair.

'Why are you all alone?' he asked her a moment later.

'I'm actually looking for my friend.'

'Well, Haley, why don't you spend some time with me and let your friend find you instead?' Drew tilted his head while waiting for her to respond. Truthfully Haley thought this proposition sounded a lot better than wondering around looking for Peyton. After all, the boy was cute and talking to him was harmless, it couldn't lead to anything bad happening… or at least that was what Haley thought.

Brooke took another sip of her drink and looked up at Lucas she gave him a sexy smile. Lucas tilted his head at her.

'What are you thinking about?'

'I'm thinking there is a pool out there and maybe we should go try it out?' Brooke replied and tucked a piece of hair behind her ear. Lucas considered her, how was he going to play this? On the one hand, Brooke was stunning and it would be fun. On the other hand though, he didn't want to be just another one of Brooke's boy toys and he had a feeling this is exactly how it would have started with one of them. He smiled at her.

'I think I have a better idea,' he replied and downed the rest of his drink.

'Oh?' Brooke asked and followed Lucas lead by finishing off her drink.

'Follow me,' he said and held out his hand for her. Brooke took it. They were moving through the crowd when she spotted Nathan standing with Peyton and Jake. Nathan caught her gaze and she groaned. He walked over to her and she lightly tugged on Luke's hand, so that he would stop walking. She turned to Lucas.

'Give me a minute,' she said and titled her head towards Nathan. 'Your baby brother needs some reassurance.' Lucas laughed and stepped back.

'I will be here,' he said to her and smiled, 'Waiting.' Brooke winked at him and walked over to Nathan.

'What's up, Scott?' she asked Nathan who crossed his arms.

'Am I going to have to beat up Lucas?' Brooke laughed.

'It wouldn't be the first time you guys got physical,' she paused and put a finger on her chin, 'but I seem to recall him winning a few of those fights.' Nathan scoffed.

'Only because I let him,' Nathan fixed her with a stern gaze.

'Relax, Baby Scott, you know me-' Nathan interrupted Brooke, one because he hated when she called him 'Baby Scott' and two because he knew where this was going.

'Exactly! I do know you, it's why I'm busy having this chat with you.' Brooke laughed.

'Well, if you know me so well, then you know I can handle myself with boys, plus it's Lucas,' she paused and folded her arms. 'He respects girls a lot more than you do, Scott.' Nathan's face grew into a smirk. He considered this for a moment, he did get along with Lucas these days and he knew he was a decent guy. He sighed.

'You're right, maybe I should be warning Lucas!' Nathan finally replied and watched as Brooke's face changed from having a grin on it to an incredulous look. She smacked his arm. Nathan laughed. 'Listen, seriously though Brooke, just handle this situation with care and I will beat him up if you want me to.' Brooke laughed again.

'See you later, Scott,' she turned to leave when she suddenly paused and turned back around. 'Nathan?' she called back to him, he turned back around and looked at her. 'Have you seen Haley?' Nathan shook his head. 'She hasn't stopped by to talk to Peyton?' Brooke asked and once again Nathan shook his head. Brooke smiled.

'Interesting she must be making some new "friends",' the way Brooke had said "friends" made Nathan laugh. 'Oh and one more thing, just wait here.' Before Nathan could protest, Brooke had run up to where Lucas was standing. Nathan watched as she moved in quite close to him and then slowly she reached into his pocket and pulled his phone out. He really hadn't wanted to see that.

'What are you doing?' Lucas asked her.

'You won't need this.' Brooke quickly replied and then went straight back to Nathan. When she reached him, she handed him her and Luke's phones.

'Brooke, why are you giving me yours and Luke's phone?' He asked her a tiny bit annoyed he was about to become responsible for two more phones.

'They may get wet,' she stated in a matter of fact way, 'give mine to Peyton she will look after it, you keep Luke's phone.' Nathan didn't have time to argue with her because she quickly turned around and left. When she reached Lucas she once again took his hand and he began leading the way once again.

Nathan walked back to Peyton and Jake. He held out Brooke's phone and Peyton looked down at it. She sighed and took it from his hand.

'You would be surprised by how many times I end up looking after this phone,' Peyton said and put in the small bag she had brought with her. Nathan laughed.

'I don't think I would be actually.' Nathan put Luke's phone in his pocket he spent a few more minutes with Jake and Peyton and then left. They were starting to get couple cute. He made his way round the room and spotted a pretty little blonde girl. He casually made his way over to her, with a dazzling smile in place.

Haley laughed. She was still with Drew. She had to admit, he was rather funny and oh so good looking.

'Can I get you a drink?' Drew offered and ran a hand through his hair. Haley smiled at him.

'Sure.'

'I'll be right back, Haley.' Drew smiled at her and turned away. Haley leant against the wall and started people watching. She had just watched a guy do a ridiculously funny-chicken-like dancing move when her eyes strayed across the room. There she saw Nathan talking to some petite blonde girl. She was still staring at them when Drew returned. He held out a red cup for her and she took it giving him a small smile.

'Thanks,' Haley looked down at the drink and then back at Nathan. It must have been one of those weird moments when you can feel someone watching you because Nathan's head turned and he looked directly back at her. Haley quickly dropped her gaze and then looked back at Drew. 'What's in the drink?' she asked trying to ignore the feeling that Nathan was still watching her.

'Just some rum and coke.' Haley nodded and smiled. She would never tell Drew this but she hated rum. She could do vodka and other mixers but she could not stomach rum at all. She pretended to take a sip of the drink.

Across the room Nathan felt his stomach sink. He couldn't be sure but he thought the guy Haley was with had a really bad reputation. He was trying to pay attention to Lisa, the girl he had just met, but his attention kept turning towards Haley. The guy had his back towards Nathan so he couldn't see him properly. Nathan tried to keep his frustration at bay, if he could just get a solid look at his face he would know if Haley had anything to worry about or if he did. He sighed, thinking that Lucas and Brooke should probably be the ones dealing with this. He hardly knew Haley-

'Nathan!' His thoughts were interrupted by Lisa who was looking up at him expectantly. 'What do you think?' Nathan sighed he gave Lisa a smile and asked her to repeat what she had said. He made a mental note to find Peyton and send her to Haley and with that he attempted to focus his attention back on Lisa.

'Come with me,' Drew said and took a hold of Haley's hand.

'Where are we going?'

'I want to show you the view from this one room,' Drew paused and smiled at her again, 'I think you will like it.' Haley considered this she didn't normally go off with boys she had just met. She also hadn't found any of her friends. She figured they were all around having a good time. She sighed, she also deserved to have a good time and Drew hadn't done anything that had alarm bells going off in her head. She shrugged.

'Ok, but after that I need to go find my one friend.' Haley added this in so that she was sure they had reason to come back down to the party.

'Of course.' Drew agreed and started to lead her towards the stairs.

Nathan looked to where Lisa had placed her hand on his chest, although this girl was pretty, she was a bit demanding. She had got quite upset when Nathan hadn't been paying her attention. He decided to keep flirting with her though, maybe they could have some harmless fun later. She was busy telling him about some party she had recently been to when he instinctively looked back over to where Haley had been standing. She was gone. Nathan kept staring at the place she had been at, he was surprised to find he was rather nervous. He shook his head he was probably just over reacting. Someone would have warned her if they guy she was with was someone she should stay away from. He turned back to Lisa and started to nod a long to her story.

'Well, you were right,' Haley said and turned around to face Drew. 'The view up here is great.' They had gone upstairs to a room, which had quite a stunning view. She could just see lights everywhere out there. She looked at Drew, they had been up here for quite some time and Haley was beginning to think it was time to head back down to the party.

'I'm glad you liked it,' Drew moved closer to her, Haley shifted a bit uncomfortably.

'I should probably go find my friend now,' Haley began but Drew took another step towards her and smiled.

'Where's your drink?' he suddenly asked and took a look around the room.

'I must have left it downstairs,' Haley replied in a silly-me-voice. Truthfully she had purposefully left it on a table before they had come upstairs. 'Let's go find my friend and get me another drink.' Haley stated again and tried to move away but Drew stepped forward again, making her step back.

'That's a shame,' Drew mumbled, not seeming to be listening to anything Haley was saying. 'But it doesn't matter.' He again stepped forward and when Haley stepped back she felt her back land against a wall. Drew put his one arm up on the wall and with the other tucked a piece of hair behind her ear. 'You seem keen enough.' That was the last thing Drew said before he leaned in to kiss her. Haley promptly pushed him away.

'What are you doing? I want to go downstairs.' Haley stated firmly. Her mind was racing, what the hell was happening?

'Don't worry, Haley, I know the guy who owns this place he won't mind if we are up here.'

'That's not what-' Haley began but was once again cut off by Drew kissing her. She pushed him again.

'Drew, stop!' She said forcefully, trying to push him away. The problem though, was that he was a lot bigger than her and consequently a lot more stronger than her little frame could fight against.

'Haley, you can't tell me you don't want this, stop fighting me.' There was an edge to Drew's voice now. He pushed her against the wall and used his weight to keep her there. Haley was panicking, she was trying to push him away or move away, but he was to strong and his grip on her was getting harder. He started to kiss her neck and Haley once again tried to push him away. He had her arms pinned though. She tried to kick him but again no luck.

'Stop it!' she yelled out but Drew ignored her and kept doing what he wanted. Haley was panicking and she could feel tears welling up in her eyes. She could not believe this was happening to her. Drew had seemed like a nice guy. What the hell was she going to do? She closed her eyes and took a deep breath, trying to calm her thoughts. She needed to think straight or else she wasn't going to get out of this until Drew was done. She shuddered. She couldn't move. She couldn't fight back. Her hands clenched into fists and that's when she felt her phone. She had forgotten about it, her dress had pockets in it. You couldn't see them but they were there and Haley had put her phone in the right dress pocket earlier that evening. Haley could move her hand just enough to get into the pocket her phone was in. She held it, felt for the button on the side that activated the silent mode, she didn't want Drew hearing her keypad. She then felt for the other button that lowered the voices on calls. She pushed it down. She knew who to call. She pushed the number 2 down on her phone and she knew it would be calling Lucas. She was thankful she had him on speed dial, trying to actually dial the number, with her shaking hand which could barely move would have been impossible. She let it ring for a bit and then ended the call. A second later she redialed, then ended the call once more, she waited a few more seconds and then redialed.

Nathan had his one hand on Lisa's waist. Things were going well with her. He took a sip of his drink, which he was holding in his free hand. Lisa smiled up at him and batted hey eye lashes. Nathan leaned down to kiss her, when suddenly he felt something vibrate in his pocket. He hesitated for a second debating whether to ignore the phone or not however, it seems his decision was decided for him when a few seconds later the vibrations stopped. He entangled his one hand in Lisa's hair continuing to move in to kiss her when the phone began to vibrate again. Once again, ignoring the phone Nathan continued to lean down, he felt the phone stop vibrating once more and as Lisa leaned up towards him it started vibrating again. Nathan gave a grunt of frustration and pulled back.

'Sorry, I just need to check something.' he said to a disappointed Lisa. He took out Luke's phone and saw three missed calls, all from Haley. Nathan thought something odd was going on. Just then Haley called again and before Nathan could answer the call, it had ended. He was about to call her back when Haley's number appeared on the screen again. He didn't hesitate and quickly answered.

'Haley?' he said but received no response. He was about to say her name again, a bit louder this time, when he heard her talking.

'Drew, stop! I want to go downstairs!' Haley sounded scared and panicked and that was all Nathan needed to hear.

'Fuck!' Nathan exclaimed and turned away from Lisa without explaining anything. Mentally Nathan was kicking himself for not having intervened earlier when he saw Haley with that guy. He moved to the stairs quickly and ran up them, pushing past people. His heart was racing. He figured if she wanted to go downstairs they must be upstairs.

'Nate!' he heard someone yell out and he looked behind him. It was Tim.

'Not now!' Nathan yelled and didn't slow down. He reached the top of the stairs and his heart rate increased. He looked around nervously, there were a lot of rooms up here.

'Fuck!' he said and began opening doors. He reached the end of the corridor and yanked open the door to the last room he had to check. Standing in the doorway, he saw Haley pinned against a wall, struggling against Drew. Her face was red and when she saw Nathan the relief that flooded across her face did something to Nathan. Something shifted within him, he had never wanted to protect someone so much in his entire life.

'What the hell is going on here?!' Nathan forcefully said and stepped inside the room.

A/N: Please review! I will try and update every week. If I get really busy it may be every two weeks. I try to write about 1000 words a day for the story. So it should be viable to get an update out every week. Of course reviews do help to keep writers motivated :)

I hope some of you are still interested in the story!
