"Hi I'm Carrie" The new girl said walking up to Nathan and Haley during their tutoring session. A new girl transferred into Tree Hill last week, apparently she was smart and a tutor. "Hi, I'm Haley" Haley said putting her hand out for her to shake. "And I'm"
"Oh you're Nathan Scott, of course I know who you are" Carrie interrupted causing Nathan to smirk. "Do you mind if I tutor my student here to, all the other tables are taken?"
"Sure" So Nathan and Haley moved closer to one another on the one side and moved their other books to the floor. Then Rachel walked over and sat down next to Carrie "Hey guys"
They both mumbled hi's "I guess you met my cousin Carrie Gatina."
"Yep" Haley said then asking Nathan "What subject are we working on today?"
"umm… History"
"Okay, here is some history, Scott's are prone to injury and should have a family discount at the hospital, they are also amazing at basketball, and history doesn't repeat itself because neither of you are like Dan."
Nathan smirked and said "Some other history is that some traits aren't genetic, I have heard your father and Quinn sing before, nothing compared to you, and some points in history repeat itself because I am pretty sure you are going to have a big family like your parents."
"Haven't we had this conversation before?"
"Yes, and I know the answer is yes, don't you?"
"Yeah, anyway the Chinese had five values, Nathan…Nathan are you listening?"
"Sorry I was thinking about how for the Chinese New Year we are ordering Chinese in class."
"Of course you were, another family trait is that you and Lucas are always thinking about food but remember you have to pass the test to get it."
"Aww man"
"Nate you haven't failed one test since we started tutoring, actually you haven't gotten anything lower than a c plus."
"That's 'cause you're a great teacher"
"Or you're smarter than everybody thinks."
"That's easy because everyone thinks that I am just a dumb jock." Nathan told Haley before she interrupted "But you're not, I know the real you, you're not dumb at all." Nathan checked his phone to see the time. "Hales I have to go, Dan wanted me home for training, but since its Friday and Lucas went home yesterday we were going to hang out."
"Who is we? And where? And what?" Haley asked.
"You know you ask a lot of questions well we might go to Karen's after the game or over someone's house."
"Can I bring board games?"
"Sure" He chuckled as they stood up and he pulled her into his embrace "Now remember, my personal cheerleader to paint my number on your face." "The face paint Brooke makes me wear? Of course."
"I wish I could stay here but if I am late."
"Dan will kill you, I know the drill, I have met your father."
"Echh don't refer to him as that" Nathan said making a face as they chuckled and Haley continued "Anyway, I will find you before the game to wish you good luck" then she kissed him and he said walking out the door "I don't need luck I have you, you're my luck." Haley smiled and waved at him. She then packed up her things and walked out.
"Well that was corny" Rachel stated. He's dating her?" Carrie questioned. "Yep"
"Well that will change soon." "I would even bother, he already turned me down and they told me they hated me."
Haley was in line with the other cheerleaders (Carrie and Rachel of course joined the team, and the principal would let Brooke not put them on the team since they were short two people) when Brooke told her to go wait for Nathan when he came out of the locker room, she thanked her and ran over, waiting. Peyton told Brooke that she could warm up the squad if she wanted to see Lucas, Brooke instantly thanked her and ran over to Haley, who was flirting with Nathan as his arms wrapped around her waist pulling her into him as she giggled. Then Lucas came out and they began to make out.
"Why do they get to talk to the players?" Carrie whined.
"Do you want to win?" Peyton questioned the squad as they nodded "Then I suggest you let the two star players slash captains have a moment with their girlfriends." Peyton stated with a little bit of anger which was released when Jake came up behind her wrapping his arms around her waist as he twirled her around.
"Nathan come on your going to mess up my face paint, of your number I might add." Haley laughed as they walked towards the squad with Brooke and Lucas behind them. "Yeah Lucas, it took me forever to paint that."
The six were now all standing next to them with the squad in front of them, Nathan looked over to Whitey who signaled they had two minutes left until they had to warm up.
"So Nathan you still haven't told me what your pre-game ritual is." Haley said as Lucas mumbled "I know a few" As Nathan hit him. "Too bad I know yours" he joke "You sit under a desk and sing some song from some book or movie or something."
"Come on, would you forget about that, I was twelve. Plus I didn't do that when Dan made me sing."
"What? He made you sing?" Lucas questioned.
"Yep the night we had dinner or more like interrogation he made me sing in front of him."
"Wow" Peyton said.
"Alright guys we have to go" Jake said kissing Peyton as Lucas kissed Brooke and Nathan kissed Haley. As they started to jog away Nathan hit Haley's butt playfully "Hey" She yelled jumping. He put up his hands in surrender "Sorry pre-game ritual!" He joked as the three girls laughed and Haley stuck her tongue out at him as she mouthed "I love you"
"I love you too" he mouthed back.
They squashed the Farrows, and won by 20 points, after they went to Karen's and joked around.
They continued tutoring with Carrie and Rachel for the next week until Wednesday when Rachel kept interrupting their private conversation so that Thursday they decided to study at his house.
"Hey Nathan, where is Haley?" Carrie questioned as Nathan walked into the almost empty tutoring center, only Carrie was in there.
"Oh we are going to have tutoring at my house today, I just stopped in to get a book I left here this morning, where is your tutee?"
"She was sick today, what are your plans for the weekend?" Carrie flirted walking over to him sitting on the desk across from him.
"I think Haley and I are going to keep it low key Saturday, maybe see a movie or something then on Sunday a bunch of us are going to get together and play games and have a movie marathon, maybe play some basketball."
"Oh well you should come to the burning boat festival tonight" Carrie said
"Maybe I will"
"Cool…" Carrie started but was interrupted by a door slamming and the sound of feet. "Oh hey Haley" Carrie continued.
"Hales, I thought we were going to meet at my car?" Nathan questioned.
Nathan went to wrap his arm around her shoulders but she moved away standing across from him crossing her arms over her chest "can I speak to you in the hallway Nathan?"
"Huh?"
"I asked if I could speak to you in the hallway."
"I can take I hint, I know when I am not wanted, see you later" Carrie said walking out of the room.
"What's wrong Hales?"
"Don't call me that." She said out of anger "I can't…I can't keep doing this, this is the third time I have caught you alone, flirting with another girl." Haley cried out tears rolling down her cheek "Is it that I can't trust you? I am not good enough for you? I mean I know practically half of the female student body hate me for dating you, do you hate me to? If not why do you keep doing this to me, I keep giving you my heart and you keep breaking it, over and over again."
"Haley you are good enough for me, I don't hate you, heck I think that you are too good for me. I love you baby, you are the only girl I have ever loved."
"Is it that you want more from me?"
"No Haley…" Nathan was interrupted
Haley stepped closer to him grabbing his hand and putting it on her heart "I gave you my heart Nathan, and if that's not enough for you than I'm not enough for you."
"But…"
"I think we need to take a break… I need time to think."
"What?"
"Please just do what I'm asking of you and give me some time" Haley then grabbed her backpack and started walking out the door, holding back sobs. Once she got out the room she ran down the hallway and out the doors, she could hear Nathan walking behind her but ignored it because she knew his car was on the other side. She sat on the bench outside and cried. Then she began to walk home. She saw Nathan pass her in his car, because it was a school zone he had to drive slow, their eyes connect and she could tell he was hurting.
Was she not good enough for him? I mean she caught him practically cheating three times in what the last 2 months? Rachel, Theresa, now Carrie. Count them, three.
After she got home she instantly went to sleep knowing that it was going to be a long day tomorrow, everywhere you turned in her room you saw pictures of the two of them.
So the next day when she finally walked into school she opened her locker and looked at the pictures in there, she ripped all of them off and then threw them in the bottom of it, she grabbed her books then headed down the hallway. She knew she looked terrible, sweats, baggy and puffy eyes. She found Brooke, Peyton, and Lucas walking together "Hey Tutor girl where is Boy Toy"
"I don't know, umm I have to go to the tutoring center, talk to you later." She said slipping away.
Haley managed to avoid them the rest of the day, and it seemed like Nathan skipped.
Do you hate me?
