Once again thank u for the reviews )

"Nathan we need to talk" Haley told Nathan on the phone "Can I meet you at the rivercourt in about an hour?"
"Um…sure" Nathan was confused, since his fight with Lucas couple weeks ago he hadn't talked to him or Haley.
Haley was sitting on the bench at the rivercourt waiting for Nathan.
"Hey, what's up?" Nathan asked "Tired of Lucas already?" he joked but regretted it as soon as he saw Haley's face. Even though he was a jerk for cheating on Haley, he still cared about her and couldn't see her crying
"Listen I really need to tell you something, and I doubt it's going to have an affect on you but I think you deserve to know" Haley began "Couple days ago I went to the doctor's and I found out that I had a miscarriage" tears had stared to form again
"It was mine?" Nathan asked
"YEAH it was yours, who do you think I am!" Haley demanded
"I'm sorry for asking. Did this cause a problem between you and Lucas?" Nathan asked
Haley was a little confused on why Nathan was being nice all of a sudden "Yeah it did, and now I don't think I'm going to ever get him back"
Nathan sat down next to Haley "You really like him don't you?"
Haley nodded and started to stand up
"Wait, I know I really hurt you and you probably don't believe me, but I'm going to make things right between you and Lucas" Nathan said and walked towards his car
"Hey Nathan" Haley called to him
Nathan turned to her "What?"
"Thanks" Haley told him and smiled
Lucas was in his room listening to music and laying on his bed replaying the night's events in his head when he heard a knock on his side door. He hoped it would be Haley.
Instead to his surprise he found Nathan "What the hell do you want"
"Hi to you too" Nathan replied "Do you think I can come in, I really need to talk to you."
"I'm really not in the mood to talk to you."
"I know you are not but you shouldn't be too hard on Haley" Nathan told Lucas
"I don't think you have any right to tell me what I should and shouldn't do" Lucas spat out
"Ouch…I guess I deserved that, but I just want to tell you that she really cares for you and I mean really cares. Don't be stupid and give her up"
"Kind of like you did?" Lucas asked
"Yeah like I did" Nathan said and turned around and left.
" Hey honey, how was your date with Haley last night?" Karen asked Lucas the next morning
"Not so good mom" Lucas told her
"Aww, you guys got into a fight?" Karen asked
Lucas just nodded
"I'm sure you guys will work it out" Karen assured him
"I doubt it mom, this wasn't a small fight" Lucas said "I'm gonna head out for school. I'll see you later"
"Bye honey" Karen said, sounding worried.
At school Lucas and Haley avoided each other the whole day even in the classes they had together they both sat on the opposite sides of the room. During basketball practice, Nathan approached Lucas.
"So did you talk to Haley?" Nathan asked Lucas
Lucas tried to ignore Nathan but he kept on bothering him "What the hell is your problem man! Mind your own business. You are really getting on my last nerve, I beat you up once before I'm not afraid to do it again!"
"No wonder Haley hates you." Nathan started to leave but turned and smirked "You want to know something funny?You are turning into me, an asshole, and I'm turning into you, the nice guy!" Nathan yelled
Lucas couldn't take it anymore; he threw the basketball against the rim of the basket and walked off toward the locker room.
Haley sat through all her classes hoping that Lucas would talk to her or maybe even glance at her. But he didn't even acknowledge her. She had lost not only a boyfriend but her best friend as well.
"Hey girl, you and Lucas talking yet?" Peyton asked her after school?
Haley shook her head. " I know I really hurt him, but I'm really sorry, I mean doesn't the fact that I told him count for anything?"
"It should" Someone said from behind
Haley and Peyton turned around to find Nathan and Jake standing there. "Hey ladies, I know that you didn't want to hear that from me, but Jake and I are gonna make sure u and Lucas are back together." Nathan told Haley
"How are you going to do that? He doesn't even want to look at me!" Haley said at the point of tears
" You leave that up to us." Peyton said, "Now you go home and don't worry about a thing" Peyton gave Haley a hug.
Haley started her long walk home alone. She definitely had great friends.
Lucas was sick and tired of all of this drama, he just wanted to go back to his normal life where he still had his best friend. He really messed up with Haley, but he had the right to be mad…didn't he? He sat in his car and looked at the passenger seat, which was usually filled by Haley. He sighed and turned his car on. While he was driving he saw Haley walking, he didn't like her walking alone. He didn't know why but suddenly he stopped the car. He rolled down his window and shouted to Haley.
"Haley! Haley!"
Haley turned around and saw Lucas, she didn't know what to say, she just stopped and waited.
"Come here I'm going to give you a ride" Lucas said
"No I can walk home" She said with no emotion
"Haley James come here right now!" Lucas shouted.
Haley finally gave in and walked to Lucas's car and sat inside. The whole time, Lucas didn't say a word and neither did Haley. When they finally reached Haley's house she turned to Lucas
"Listen Lucas I just want to say that I'm---"
"Save it Haley, I just gave you a ride because it was cold outside" Lucas snapped
Haley got out and Lucas left leaving Haley alone once again.
"You guys how are we going to get them together?" Peyton asked
"Well I know that Lucas still loves Haley and Haley still loves Lucas" Nathan said "So all we have to do is show them that they still love each other"
"You know I was thinking that maybe we should let them figure this out for themselves" Brooke said " I mean put yourself in Lucas's shoes, I definitely would be furious but then if you put yourself in Haley's shoes you know that it take a lot of guts and courage to tell your boyfriend that you had a miscarriage."
"Brooke has a point, maybe we should just get them together so that they can talk." Jake suggested.
"Okay how about at the river court"
"No they have a chance to escape, it needs to be in a closed area"
"Hmm…. how about here at your house Nathan?" Peyton asked
"How am I going to get Lucas here?" Nathan asked "I think he's seriously going to kill me if I even glance at him."
"Well don't you have that really big basketball game next week? Why don't you say that you want to practice your double team or shooting or something, and say that Jake is here too so that he doesn't get suspicious." Brooke said
"Alright but if he comes after me, I'm blaming you!" Nathan joked
" Hey Nathan can we ask you a question?" Jake asked " Why are you being nice all of sudden?"
Nathan was silent for a second and then answered "I never meant to hurt Haley, hell I still love her"
"WHAT!" Brooke and Peyton shouted
"Yeah I still love her"
"Then why did you cheat on her?"
"I didn't. I just made it look like I did." Nathan looked at all of their confused faces and smiled "Let me explain, you see I was so happy with Haley but I knew that she didn't love me, I mean she said that she did but every time she was with Lucas the look in her eyes was the look of love. She loved Lucas, I mean she always did. She wouldn't realize it unless I broke up with her, which is why I had to pretend. There is no way in hell that I would actually do that to Haley, so then I had to pretend to be an asshole and make her believe that I was a jerk, and she bought it and went to Lucas"
"Aww that is so sweet Nathan!" Peyton said "Except for the whole you being an asshole part!"
"Yeah yeah whatever, but this stays between the 4 of us, you all have to promise never to tell anyone!" Nathan said
"We promise" Jake said and the girls nodded in approval.
"Wait let me get this straight, you have a major math test tomorrow and you need me to tutor you? How long have you known about this math test Nathan?' Haley asked
"Oh um we just found out today."
"You just found out today and it's worth 50 of your grade?" Haley asked sounding confused
"Yeah, so will you help me?"
"I don't know Nathan…"
"Oh come on you have to!" Nathan pleaded
"Okay fine I'll be over in 5 min"
"NO! I mean can you come in an hour, I need to um get ready" Nathan asked
"Okay…I guess" Haley answered
"You want to practice b-ball with me?" Lucas asked sounding surprised
"Yeah man, I mean Jake will be here too and since the basket ball game is the most important one of the year, I thought that we should practice together. So are you in?" Nathan asked
"I guess" Lucas sounded unsure. "I'll be there in about 10 min"
"NO!" Nathan shouted " I mean come in an hour…I have to um….take a shower"
"Before you play basketball?" Lucas asked
"Um…yeah it refreshes me and I can think better" Nathan knew how stupid that sounded but hoped that Lucas would buy it
"Okay I guess I'll take a shower too. See you in about an hour"
"You have to take a shower?" Jake asked Nathan
"Hey! At least he bought it…they both will be here in an hour we have to make sure everything is perfect!" Nathan said
