It had been a few weeks, and Haley was still thoroughly enjoying married life. She loved waking up next to Nathan. She loved seeing him everyday. She especially loved having someone that she could tell anything too. Haley was laying on their double bed waiting for Nathan to get home after basketball practice. She needed to talk to him. Something had happened, and they didn't do a great job of preventing it. Haley ran through the many different ways that she could tell him. But none of them sounded right. She didn't know if she should be happy, scared, mad, upset, sad, worried. There were a plethora of feelings running through her all at the same time. This was going to changed their lives forever, and Haley wasn't sure how she felt about it, or even more importantly how Nathan was going to feel about it. They had only been married a couple months. She laid their contemplating her situation when she heard the front door open and close.
"Haley?" Nathan called excitedly.
"I'm um in here." she called from their bedroom.
"Baby, you'll never guess what happened today. I got accepted to Highfliers." he said excitedly.
"Great. What exactly is Highfliers?" she asked curiously.
"It's a summer basketball camp, where they pretty much take the best players from across the country. They send scouts around to scope out the best players, and I was selected." he said happily.
"Oh, that sounds amazing." she said unconvincingly.
"Hales, what's wrong?" Nathan asked concerned.
"Nothing. I'm so happy for you." she tried to convince him.
"No. I can tell when something is wrong. What is it? Is it Highflier's? I'll only be gone for a month." he tried reassuring her.
"It's not Highfliers. This is a great opportunity for you." she insisted.
"Then what is it." he said sitting down on the bed beside her and taking her hand.
Haley sighed, and looked at Nathan, knowing that it was now or never.
"Nathan, I don't know how to tell you this, so I'm just going to say it. I don't know how you're going to feel, but please no matter how you feel, please understand that I am most definitely going through the same emotions. I am completely freaking out. But here it is. I'm pregnant." she confessed to her now frozen husband.
"Pregnant?" he asked completely shocked.
"Yes. I am pregnant. How do you feel about that?" she asked worried.
"I don't know. I don't know. Hales, we are 16 years old, we still have our lives to live out. I had Highflier's. What are we supposed to do now?" Nathan asked still shocked.
"You still go to Highflier's. I'll be okay here for a month. And I was hoping we would figure it out together, as it happens." she asked.
"I don't know. I need to think. I'm going to go out, and think about this. I don't know how I feel about this, I just need some time." he said standing up and walking out.
Haley watched him leave, and then leaned back against the wall. She understood how Nathan felt, she definitely remembered that emotion when she found out about the pregnancy. Haley hoped that sooner or later he would be willing to talk about it, and she hoped he would learn to embrace it, like she was.
Nathan was sitting on the table thinking about what Haley told him. Several solutions crossed his mind. One of which being getting an abortion. He wasn't sure if Haley would agree to it, but he knew that he wasn't ready to be a father. There were too many things left to do in life, not only for him but for Haley too. It wasn't fair for them to have to give it all up now. Nathan got of the table, and left the river court deciding to go home to his wife. He was sure she was worried since he had been gone a couple hours already. When he parked in front of their apartment, Nathan took a deep breath before walking up the stairs. When he opened the front door, he saw that all the lights were off, so he quietly walked to the bedroom. The bedroom door was slightly ajar, and he stopped outside the door. He heard Haley crying on the other side of the door. If there was one sound he would never have to hear again, it would be Haley crying. The sound threatened to break his heart. Almost immediately he changed his mind not to suggest an abortion because hearing her cry about his reaction to the baby, made it clear to him that Haley already loved this baby. He quietly opened the door and walked over to the bed where he laid a hand on her arm before settling down beside her.
"Haley, I'm sorry I walked out. I love you. And if you love this baby, and you want it in our lives then I want it too." he told her wrapping his arms tighter around her small frame.
"Are you sure? It's going to change our lives forever." she told him honestly.
"As long as I'm with you, everything will be perfect. I love you Haley James, and I would do anything for you, including having a baby it seems." he said kissing her neck.
"I love you too Nathan Scott. And by the way it's Haley Scott. You called me Haley James. My name is Haley Scott." she told him leaning into his chest.
They didn't know how they would cope with this. Or how their lives would change. They knew they would. But all they needed to get through it was knowing that they had one another if they needed each other. And they always had someone to talk to if they needed it. Someone who would always be there for them. All they needed was each other.
