Finding Herself
Chapter Nine
Test Our Love
Nathan picked up Brooke at exactly 8:30 for another one of Tim's famous parties. He decided to have it because Haley had asked him out on another date, and for Tim that was a huge deal. Nathan walked up to Brooke's front door and knocked, Brooke answered the door wearing denim hip hugger jeans, and a light pink spaghetti strap tank top. Nathan looked her up and down and smiled, "You're looking hot tonight, Davis," he said smiling and taking her hands.
"Thank you," Brooke said flashing her pearly whites and getting into the passenger's side, "You're looking pretty damn fine yourself."
Nathan laughed, "Yeah I know," he said jokingly, Brooke hit his arm playfully, "This party should be fun; I haven't had a beer in at least three days."
Brooke rolled her eyes, "Awe, I'm so proud of you," she said sarcastically. They got to Tim's in a matter of minutes and walked inside and walked towards Lucas and Peyton who were giving each other little kisses on the couch, "Hey guys," she said giving Peyton a hug.
"Hey!" Peyton said enthusiastically taking a sip from her beer. She pointed to the other side of the room, "Look at those two lovebirds over there."
Brooke and Nathan both turned their heads towards the place Peyton had pointed, they saw Haley and Tim dancing, laughing, and kissing; they actually started acting like a couple, "Awe, good for Haley," Brooke said smiling.
Nathan put his arm around Brooke, "Now she won't be stalking me," he said laughing.
Peyton laughed, "Awe, be nice," she said putting her head on Lucas's shoulder.
Nathan shook his head and laughed, he then took Brooke's hand and they went over towards the beer, "Thirsty?" he asked handing her a beer.
Brooke took the beer and cracked it open and took a sip, "Yup, thanks," she said as Nathan got his beer.
"This is my only beer tonight," Nathan said taking a long drink of his beer, "I don't want to get drunk and start making out with random girls tonight."
Brooke clinked bottles with Nathan, "Cheers to that."
Nathan smiled and gave her a kiss on the lips, "Do you want to go on the couch," he said in her ear making tingles go up her back. She didn't know why she was so aroused when she was around Nathan, he just did that to her.
Brooke smiled and nodded, "Yeah sure," they made their way to the couch and started making out right beside Peyton and Lucas who were also making out. Nathan and Brooke would look at them from time to time and start laughing for no apparent reason, Lucas and Peyton didn't know about this because they were definitely drunk.
Tim was kissing Haley on the neck, "I'm so glad we're together," he said as he put his hand on her ass.
Haley lightly pushed him off of her, "Baby you're drunk," she said taking the beer away from him.
"What? So I can't make out with my girl?" he slurred, "I love you."
Haley rolled her eyes, "You're drunk," she said crossing her arms.
Tim put his arm around her, "Why are you being like this?"
"Because I hate when you're drunk, you act like a pig," she explained, "Why can't you act like a gentleman like you did on our first date?"
"Whatever Haley," Tim said throwing his hands up in defeat, "I know you just want to be with Nathan so I don't see why I even fucking try," Haley could smell the alcohol on his breath.
"That's not true," Haley said looking past Tim and looking at Brooke and Nathan making out on the couch, she then looked back at Tim, "I do want to be with you."
"Well then act like it," he said seductively into her ear.
Haley scoffed, "Are you trying to say I have to have sex with you in order to prove to you that I want to be with you?"
"No," Tim said putting his hands up to stop her, "I never said that."
"I bet that's what you meant though, right?" she asked with her arms still crossed.
Tim rolled his eyes, "Why the hell are you like this?"
"Because you're acting like an ass!"
"Screw you Haley!" Tim said, and then grabbed a random girl and started making out with her.
Haley pushed Tim into the coffee table making it hit the floor making a loud noise causing everyone to look up, "I hate you!" she screamed running out of the house. Everyone looked at Tim, and then a couple people started talking, then a couple more, and then the whole party had forgotten about the incident.
Nathan watched Haley leave the house, "Brooke I'm going to talk to Haley," he said starting to get up.
"No, I will I am one of her good friends," Brooke said starting to get up as well.
"Well, I would have Peyton do it but she's drunk, and I'm the second one who knows her almost as well as Peyton so I will, but thanks and I'll be right back," he said giving her a kiss on the forehead. Nathan walked outside and saw Haley standing in the backyard crying, "Hales, are you okay?" he said quietly as if she was a young child.
Haley turned around and Nathan saw her mascara was running, "Do I look okay Nathan?" she asked. Nathan shook his head, "Just go back to the party I don't need you're pity
"It's not pity, I'm just looking out for a friend," he said handing her his jacket, she put it on and got lost in the smell of Nathan.
"Thanks," she said quietly, "I thought Tim would be better than that."
Nathan shrugged, "I thought you would be better than using Tim to get me jealous."
Haley looked down at the ground and kicked a rock, "I'm sorry about that," she said softly, "I just really liked you."
"Do you really even like Tim, or was it just a game?" Nathan asked sternly.
Haley shrugged, "I do like him since I am crying over him, but I just can't get you out of my head," she said looking up into Nathan's eyes trying to get some sort of connection with him.
Nathan looked away from her, "I have Brooke now," he said.
"Do you love her?" Haley asked.
Nathan looked at Haley, and before he could say anything Haley kissed him. She grabbed his face and kissed him forcefully, Nathan didn't want to do it, but yet the player inside of him didn't stop her.
"Yeah Nathan, do you love her?" Brooke asked repeating Haley's question with sheer anger in her voice
Nathan turned around and saw Brooke standing her with her hands on her hips and a single tear rolling down her lightly tanned face, "Brooke listen to me..." he began.
Brooke cut him off, "Listen to you? God, Nathan I don't know whether to believe anything that comes out of your mouth anymore!" she said as she took a step backwards, "And as for you Haley, I have two words for you: Fuck you," she said walking away from the two of them.
Nathan and Haley looked at each other, "That was a mistake," Nathan said to her.
Haley touched Nathan's face, "But it felt so right," she said smiling.
Nathan swatted her hand away, "No it didn't. It felt wrong," and with that he ran after Brooke. He saw as she started walking towards the direction to her house, "Brooke!" he screamed as he ran after her. Brooke kept walking and kept crying, true he had warned her but Brooke didn't actually think he was going to two time her with the girl he said that he didn't like. Brooke was now back to where she was a week ago: Alone.
