Haley ran and ran until she couldn't feel her legs anymore. She looked around and realized she ended up at the river court. At the moment she couldn't hold it in any longer, she cried and cried. It wasn't the first time she had caught Nathan with a girl but it was the first time that she had caught him sleeping with another girl.
How could he do this to me! I thought he loved me. I thought he cared about me. I thought I was the only one for him.
Flashback
It was Nathan and Haley's 6 month anniversary and they just had dinner at a fancy restaurant and now were taking a walk.
"I can't believe it has been 6 months already!" Haley exclaimed
" The best 6 months of my life" Nathan replied
"Awww you are so sweet Nathan" Haley squealed
"I know" Nathan said as if it were obvious,
Then suddenly getting serious, Nathan grabs Haley's hand and turns her towards him "Haley you seriously are the best thing that has ever happened to me. I don't know where I'd be right now if it weren't for you. I just want you to know that I care about you and I will never hurt you."
Haley was getting tears in her eyes
Nathan continued " You're the only of for me and I hope I'm the only one for you. What I want to say is Haley I love you"
Haley was so happy she didn't know what to say " Oh Nathan I love you too!"
End flashback
As Haley sat there and thought about that day tears continued to spill from her eyes. She just sat there when she suddenly heard footsteps
"Haley, is that you?" someone said from behind.
"Haley is that you" someone said from behind
Haley turned around to find Mouth. She and Mouth had grown up together just like her and Lucas. He was like a brother to her and recently she hadn't seen much of him
"Hey Mouth" Haley replied trying to cover up her tears but failed
"What's wrong?" Mouth asked, as he sat down next to her "Aren't you supposed to be at Brooke's party?"
The word party brought back the horrible images of Nathan and the girl lying naked on the floor.
Haley shook her head "I never really liked those parties, I only went because of Lucas and Na—" she choked on her tears before saying Nathan's name
" You want to tell me what's going on?" Mouth asked while taking off his jacket and putting it around Haley.
Haley told Mouth the whole story, between tears, starting with Nathan having too many drinks and finding him in the bathroom with another girl and ending with her running out of the party after finding Lucas dancing with another girl
Mouth was shocked and didn't know what to say so instead he just pulled Haley into a hug.
Meanwhile at the party Lucas was still dancing with Emily. He had just met her today and apparently she was new to Tree Hill. She seemed nice to Lucas, but he had still just met her. After some time of dancing they decided to sit down and get something to drink
"So Emily where did you move from?" Lucas asked while taking a sip of his drink
" I moved from Miami because my mom got transferred" Emily replied
"Wow Miami, it must be hard to adjust to a small town" Lucas said
"Yeah it has been hard, but slowly I'm making new friends and I'm starting to like it" Emily responded with a smile
"Well if you ever need help in anything don't hesitate to ask" Lucas offered
"Thanks" Emily replied, "That's good to know."
"Well it's getting kind of late; do you want me to drop you home?" Lucas asked
"No you don't have to I live right down the street" Emily replied while getting up from her chair
" That's great, then I guess I'll see you at school." Lucas said as he was heading out the door
"Yup, see you later" Emily said and then she turned around and left
Now where is Haley? I know Peyton and Jake were going to leave early, but Haley said that we would go home together; maybe she already left with Nathan.
Lucas decided to leave since he couldn't find Haley and she wasn't picking up her cell. He said bye to Brooke who was more than drunk and took his leave. It was starting to get cool outside and the leaves were starting to fall. Lucas loved this time of year; it was not too hot and not too cold. He passed the graveyard and remembered all those times he passed through there to go to Haley's house. As he continued walking he came to the river court. It was like his second home. He was playing there since he could walk. As he came closer he saw two figures huddled in the corner. He went closer and saw that one of them was Mouth and the other, to his surprise was Haley. At that moment there were so many questions running through his mind. On top of that there was a nagging feeling that he couldn't push aside.
He couldn't believe Haley was cheating on Nathan.
