A/N: Picture Peyton's curls as they were in the beginning of the first season.

You Are The Music In Me – Chapter One

Haley smiled when she opened the door to find Peyton and Anna standing there. "Hey!" She pulled both girls into a hug and pulled them inside. "Thank you so much for coming."

"It's our pleasure Hales." Anna smiled and tucked a strand of dark hair behind her ear. She was still as stunning as ever. She was dressed in black pants and a red sweater.

"Yeah we couldn't leave our girl hanging." Peyton hadn't changed much since high school. She was still the punk girl. She was wearing a plaid mini-skirt and a black "Foo Fighters" shirt. She was still beautiful though. She let her blonde curls grow past her shoulders.

Haley grabbed both of the girls' hands and pulled them towards the party. "Brooke and Chase are here. Tim's bringing Rachel and some guy named Jake."

The girls stopped once they reached the kitchen. Brooke and Chase were standing in there talking to Lucas and some overly thin blonde. "Girls!" Brooke smiled and walked over to the three of them. "Finally! There are to many guys here."

"I'm hurt!" All four girls turned around to see Tim, Rachel, and a guy holding the hand of a blonde girl who looked about five.

"Tim!" Haley squealed and jumped into his arms. Everyone but Jake laughed. Haley was a little over dramatic. She was always messing around with Tim.

"Haley!" He mocked. He set her down and looked her over. "I haven't seen you since this morning! It's been to long." He pointed the black dress she was wearing. "I love what you did to your wardrobe and your hair."

She playfully hit him in the chest. She then turned to Jake. "Hi you must be Jake. I'm Haley." She held her hand out to him, which he shook. She then bent down to the little girl. "And what's your name?"

"Jenny." She flashed Haley a smile.

"Would you like some cookies?" She looked up at Jake. "If it's okay with your dad."

Jenny looked up at Jake. "Can I daddy?"

"Yes. Just don't eat too many. I don't want you getting sick."

"Okay." She took Haley's hand and followed her out to the party.

"What do you want? We have chocolate chip, peanut butter, and sugar cookies."

"Peanut butter please." Haley handed the girl a cookie and picked up on for herself.

"I knew I liked you." She smiled at the girl. She held her hand out. Jenny placed her small hand in it and they walked back to the kitchen. Haley and Jenny spent the rest of the party bonding. Jake spent most of the time smiling at his daughter. She didn't have a strong female lead in her life. Talking to Haley could only help her.

YATMIM

Haley ran a brush through her hair and turned to her fiancé "Nathan?"

"Hm?" He didn't looked up from the paper he was looking over. He rarely paid attention to her when he was going over something for work.

"Are we going to have kids?" She sat at the foot of the bed. She watched him. He never once looked up at her. If he had he would have seen the look of hurt on her face from being neglected.

"Haley kids will only get in the way of our careers." He put the paper down and lay down. "Neither of us will have time to take care of a kid." He shut the lamp on his nightstand off.

"I'd make time for my own damn child." She mumbled under her breath so he wouldn't hear her.

"What was that?"

"Nothing." She picked up her pillow and walked towards the door. "I'm sleeping in the guest room tonight."


A/N: Short but I just wanted to get this started. Once Haley and Jake start talking about recording and discussing music things will get better. And the relationship Haley is building with Jenny will be a major thing that helps Jaley.
