Five Vicodin Chased With A Shot Of Clarity – Old Friends and Eye Candy

Haley sat in the recording studio. She was holding Kaitlyn while Chris was recording. "Momma." Haley looked down at the one year old. She smiled sadly at her. She wasn't the little girls mom but she had been calling her 'momma' since she could talk. She was the one who take care of her. Anytime Chris couldn't care for Kaitlyn Haley would be there. Chris shouldn't be the one raising Kaitlyn either. She was his sister not his daughter.

"She did it again." Haley said when the door opened, not even looking up. She handed Kaitlyn her bottle and leaned back in the couch she was sitting on. She finally looked up at Chris. He looked tired. He had been taken care of Kaitlyn since his mother gave birth to her. His mom was strung out on drugs and wouldn't get clean for her child. She would rather have the drugs and the guys. She didn't even know who kaitlyn's father was.

Haley walked around her new bedroom. She was trying to find something decent to wear. She was going shopping with Deb for school clothes. She was standing in the room in a pair of tight fitting jeans that had no holes in them. She was in just her black bra as well, her back to the door.

"Haley?" Lucas opened the door, not used to having to knock. With Nathan it was always safe to walk in. He stopped in the doorway and gasped at what he saw. Haley's back had a long scar going across her shoulder blades. There were several smaller scars on her back and some burn marks from cigarettes.

Haley quickly turned around but by the look on Lucas' face she knew he had saw her back. She didn't want any of them to see her scars. They were private. No one was supposed to know about them. She never wanted to know about them after Chase's reaction. "Don't you ever knock?"

"I… I'm sorry." Lucas quickly turned away from his little sister. "Mom wanted to know if you were ready."

Haley slipped on an old black t-shirt. It had belonged to Chase. He gave it to her before she left. "Yeah I'm ready." She finished tying her boots and grabbed her coat. Haley followed Lucas down the stairs. Sitting in the kitchen talking to Deb was a blonde with really curly hair. She was wearing a "Lynard Skynard" shirt.

"Haley this is my girlfriend Peyton." Haley raised an eyebrow at the girl when she held her hand out. Once she realized Haley wasn't going to shake it she quickly withdrew it. "She's going shopping with you two."

"Hi. I'm Peyton Sawyer. I have a sucky taste in fashion as everyone likes to point out but they thought I could help you." Peyton pointed at Lucas and Deb. She was about to say more but quickly stopped when she saw that Haley wasn't really paying any attention to her.

Nathan walked into the kitchen with a weird look on his face. "Mom a car just pulled into the driveway. Two guys and some redheaded chick got out of the car." Haley never heard anything else he had to say. She ran for the front door.

"Rachel!" Haley ran over to her best friend and practically pounced on her. The two girls would have fallen to the ground if Chase and Chris hadn't of reached out to catch them.

"What no love for us?" Chase joked as he pulled Haley into a hug.

"Where's my baby?" Haley asked as she hugged Chris.

"In the car sleeping." Chris said. Haley ran towards the car. "Please let her sleep!" It was too late. He heard Kaitlyn yell 'momma' as loud as she could.

"Hello. You three must be Haley's friends. I'm Deb, her step-mom. These are my sons, Lucas and Nathan. And this is Lucas' girlfriend, Peyton." Deb motioned to each person as she spoke. "Who are you?" She asked the question with curiosity and gentleness.

"I'm Chris." Chris motioned to Rachel. "That's Rachel, Haley's best friend." He pointed to Chase who was helping Haley get Kaitlyn wrapped up in a blanket. "That's Chase. And that baby is my little sister, Kaitlyn."

Haley walked over carrying the baby. Rachel wrapped her arms around Haley's waist and laid her head on her shoulder. "I miss you so much Haley." Rachel looked up at Haley, pouting. "Can I have you for the day?" She looked so hopeful. Haley looked over at Deb.

"Well we were going to go shopping. Would you like to join us? The boys can stay here and play basketball or something." Deb smiled softly at everyone.

"Sure. I have a surprise for Haley anyone. I would love to set it up before she gets back." Chris walked over to the car and took out Kaitlyn's car seat and her diaper bag. He chuckled at Deb's amused look at Haley holding the baby. "She won't put that baby down unless you pry her away."

Haley was standing in a music store. Rachel was the clothing store next door picking Haley out some clothes. Haley didn't want to do her own clothes shopping. Rachel volunteered to do it for her. Deb and Peyton set off to find what school supplies Haley would need. "What do you think of this one Kaitlyn?" When the baby grabbed for the CD she chuckled.

"Good choice." That voice sent chills down Haley's spine. She turned around to see the most gorgeous green eyes. She smiled softly at the girl. She was dressed in all black. Her hair looked like it was in need of being dyed. It was dyed a dark black. The girls' roots were what looked like a dark brown. Haley was sure he natural color was very attractive, much like the rest of the girl.

"Thank you." Haley looked down at Kaitlyn who was reaching for her teddy bear in her stroller. The girl picked it up and handed it to the baby. "Thanks. I'm Haley and this is Kaitlyn."

"I'm Brooke." She smiled at the baby. When she smiled she showed off some very sexy dimples. "Is she yours?" She looked at Haley who seemed a little surprised. "It's cool if she is. My best friend has a daughter."

"She's my friend's sister. I'm just taking care of her." She put Kaitlyn in the stroller and looked up to see Rachel coming. "I have to go but it was nice meeting you." She walked away but turned to see Brooke looking at some CDs. "You have a nice ass by the way." When she looked up Haley winked at her and walked up to the counter.

Rachel took Kaitlyn outside to sit on bench so she could feed her. Haley was paying for the CD when Brooke moved behind her. She leaned in so only Haley could hear her. "You don't look so bad yourself." That voice sent chills down Haley's spine. "Maybe I'll see you later." With that Brooke walked off leaving Haley standing there with her mouth opened. It wasn't the most attractive way to stand in the middle of a store but who cares. She was definitely not going to mind staying here if that was the eye candy. Maybe Tree Hill wouldn't be so bad.

A/N: Okay so maybe I should clear this up, Haley is bisexual as is Brooke and Rachel. There will definitely be some Baley action just not sure if they will be a fling or a relationship. Oh and I'm thinking about keeping Haley's old gang in Tree Hill. Not sure yet. They are after all basically living on their own anyways. They could move down there with no problems. I just don't know yet. What do you guys think?
