Pulling her suitcase behind her.
"Haley, are you sure about this?" Jimmy James asked.
"Mum, I'm sure!"
"But Haley-Bob, if you're moving cause of this guy, how about your dad kills him then you can stay?" Lydia James said, trying to make her daughter stay.
Haley smiled briefly but then shook her head firmly as a loud horn came from outside.
"Mum, I've made my decision. Besides I'll only be at Aunty Mary's for about…3 months."
"Hmm, well seeing as there's nothing more I or your father can do, we'll see you off."
As Haley hugged her parents goodbye, she handed them 2 envelopes.
"Oh and could you give this to them please?" Haley said, pointing to the names on the front of the envelopes.
"Yeah, sure honey. Now if you're going then move! I'm paying the taxi bill here!" Jimmy James laughed and hugged Haley again before pushing her into the car.
However, just around the corner Nathan was taking a jog to see Haley.
'Come on Nathan, you've got to at least make her be your friend! I mean come on, if Haley doesn't even wanna have anything to do with you, she's not that evil that she wont be friends!'
"Bye Mum! Bye Dad! And to everyone else!" Haley waved from the cab that was driving away.
'Hmm, wonder who's in that car?' Nathan thought but he shrugged it off, thinking it was just a neighbour or something.
But as he approached the James's, Nathan noticed their sullen faces.
"Morning Mr and Mrs James."
"Oh, Nathan! Good Morning."
"You both ok?"
"Yeah we're fine. So was there something you wanted Nathan?"
"Yeah. Is er, Haley in?"
Jimmy and Lydia looked at each other before handing Nathan 1 of the 2 envelopes.
"I'm sorry Nathan. You just missed her."
Nathan looked at the envelope. "Missed her? What's going on?"
"Haley's gone to her Aunt's for a few months."
Haley's gone to her Aunt's for a few months.
Haley's gone to her Aunt's.
Haley's gone.
Haley's gone.
Haley's gone.
"W-what?"
"She told us to give you that envelope. Maybe some of the answers to the many questions you have right now are in there." Jimmy said and put a firm hand on Nathan's shoulder. "Sorry Nate."
Nathan was speechless. "She's…gone?"
Lydia nodded.
"For 3 months?"
"Yes love."
Then Nathan clicked. 'WHAT HAVE YOU DONE YOU FOOL?' Nathan thought to himself. 'HOW COULD YOU JUST LET HER GO?'
"We've got to go son. If she rings would you like us to ask her to ring you or for her to give you a contact number?"
"Yeah, yeah that would be good. Thanks."
Nathan slowly walked away, looking down at the envelope.
"Nathan?" Lydia called after him.
He turned around and looked at her.
"She will be back."
All Nathan could do was nod. Now he had to acknowledge she was gone. The only person who ever understood him. The only person who didn't care about how rich or how popular he was. The only person he'd ever loved.
Nathan finally arrived home. By now he was an emotional wreck. All he could think about while walking home was how he'd ruined everything. He sat on his bed and carefully opened the envelope after much deliberation whether or not he shouldn't actually do it. But Nathan decided he should, Haley wrote it for him to read and he should read it.
Nathan.
By the time you read this I will be on my way to my Aunt's house in California.
I know things between us have been awkward since we broke up. I'm sorry for that. I hope that you can find someone else. Maybe someone who would suit you better. I mean me and you. Let's just say we weren't a couple people saw coming right?
But right now, I'm leaving for my Aunt's because I feel that I'm still trying to heal. I'll be honest here Nathan. I loved you. And when you told me you didn't think it was enough I felt like my heart was crushed into smithereens. But I didn't write this letter to make you feel guilty. I wrote it because I want you to know that by the time I come back I hope that me and you can be friends. At least. But if you're with someone else by that time then maybe your new girlfriend won't approve of you and me being friends.
Anyway.
I don't really know what to say now.
I wish you the best for everything. And for the science project. Sorry to bail out on you. Good luck. You'll be fine, just speak clearly and don't look down.
I'll miss you Nathan Scott. I have since we broke up.
Best wishes.
Haley James.

Nathan could only drop the letter onto the floor and let the tears roll down his face. But crying wasn't even near to the pain his heart was feeling.
As Nathan cried his heart out, Haley was crying too in the taxi. They were both thinking about each other. Both in each other's hearts. They were just too stubborn to admit it.
But for now the only thing the both of them could do was…
Wait.
