Chapter 4: A secret meeting
After Rachel left that morning, Shelly and Mouth went back to decorating the new babies room.
"I think we're done." Mouth said
"and I think your right" Shelly agreed, " I feel so bad for Rachel. 4 years ago I never would have said that but I really do."
" I know" Mouth said taking Shelly in his arms.
Nathan handed Luke off to Haley, telling her that he had to go to the store, and that he would be back soon. He hopped into his car and sped off, planning to meet Rachel, she had said that she had big news. He drove in silence until he pulled up to her house, Skills was supposed to be home but his car was not in the driveway.
"Nathan!" Rachel called from the porch, " I am so happy you came! Thank You!" She ran down and threw her arms around him, hugging him.
" Yeah, no problem but what is this all about?" nathan asked.
" I am getting a divorce and I wanted someone to talk to" She answered.
"I'm always here for you." He said, walking into the house.
After telling him the details, Nathan began to talk, " I have known Skills forever and I know he can disapoint people often but he really if a great guy and..." Rachel cut him off by kissing him hard on the lips. Nathan pulled away fast.
"rachel, what are you doing!?!?!?!" He said standing up.
"Oh come on Nathan, you know that you liked it and you know how much of a pain Haley can be, come on it'll be our little secret." She kissed him again but this time, he didn't pull away, he kissed her back. She put her hands on his back and pushed him into a wall. She stopped kissing him and grabbed his hand. She pulled him up into her bedroom and took her shirt off.
"Rachel...no, I can't do this to Haley" He said but she didn't listen she pushed him onto the bed and started kissing him.
An hour later Nathan was driving home. 'I can not believe I just slept with Rachel!' He thought to himself. It hadn't stopped at kissing, Rachel went the whole way, not stopping. When they were done, she told him to leave, that Skills would be home soon and not to tell anyone. He hoped Haley would never find out. He remembered how hurt she was when she found out about Brooke, there seniour year. He thought fast and decided to swing by the store to pick up some stuff so it would look like that's where he was all along.
When he arrived home Haley wasn't suspiious at all. A few minutes later, Nathan answered the phone. It was Rachel.
"Nathan, have you told her?" She asked
No, you?" He asked
"No, but listen, I don't want this to end. I think I love you Nathan! Please meet me at my house tomorrow at 10 am. Please." She begged
"Yes, I think I can make it." he said and hung up.
"who was that" Haley asked
"A business partner, I have to go to an out of town meeting at 10 tomorrow, I am so sorry." He said
