Chapter Ten

The next morning was a Saturday. Haley awoke early and couldn't go back to sleep. She went downstairs to find her mom awake and sitting at the kitchen table. Her mom's dark brown hair was messy and she had a mug of coffee in her hand; she was reading the newspaper. Had her mom always gotten up this early on Saturdays?

"You're up early," said Haley joining her mom at the kitchen table.

"I like the silence of Saturday mornings when everyone's asleep," she mom answered taking another sip of her coffee.

"Then I won't keep you from your paper," Haley said shaking her messy hair of chestnut curls. She started to get up from the table when her mom stopped her.

"No, you can stay," her mom said. "We haven't had a lot of time to talk since you told me about your pregnancy; or I found out rather." Haley's face turned pink. She always felt bad for that.

"Ok, what do you want to talk about?" she wondered hoping her mom wasn't going to ask what she was going to do with the baby because at this point she really didn't know.

"I don't know. How have you been feeling?"

"Fine," Haley answered. "My morning sickness went away a couple weeks ago and now I don't feel sick as much."

"Good," her mom nodded.

There was a bit of silence and Haley got up and poured herself a glass of milk. "So are you ever going to tell me who the father is?" asked her mom after she sat down.

Haley sighed. "I didn't want to, but I guess you're eventually going to make me." Her mom nodded. "You promise you won't tell anyone?"

"Haley, I am your mom, who am I going to tell?"

"Hannah, dad"

"Don't worry, Hannah and your father don't have to know," and answered.

"Ok," Haley gave in. "His name is Nathan Scott. He plays basketball at my school and he's the same age, but it doesn't matter because he has a girlfriend."

"I've heard of him," Haley's mom said. "And does his girlfriend know?"

"Not that I know of."

Right then there was a creek on the stairs and Haley looked up to find a half-asleep Hannah walking down the stairs. "What's going on?" she wondered.

"Nothing," answered their mom. "Haley and I were just talking."

Hannah nodded and joined them at the table. That was the end of the secret baby talk.

That Monday at school Haley decided she would make a copy of her latest sonogram and put it in Nathan's locker, since she said she would keep him updated on how the baby was doing. So, she decided to come to school early and sneak it into his locker before anyone could see her.

When Brooke Davis got to school that day she noticed she had left her history book at home. She called Nathan and he said she could use his since they had it two different periods. So she went to Nathan's locker and opened it up and when she did a picture fell onto the floor. She picked it up and looked at the back. It said thirteen weeks. She knew she probably shouldn't be looking at all of Nathan's stuff, but she was curious of what the picture looked like so she flipped it over.

Her mouth fell open when she saw what was on the other side. It was a sonogram, and all Brooke wanted to know was why did her boyfriend have a sonogram in his locker?

Brooke walked in circles around the quad until she saw Nathan walk up. She was angry and confused. Maybe it was nothing. Maybe someone was trying to play a joke on him. Why was she so worked up? But still she couldn't help it. She marched up to him in her black pumps.

"What's this?" she asked showing him the picture.

He also looked confused and shook his head. "I don't know."

"Are you sure?" she asked. He shook his head yes. "Well it was in your locker." His eyes got big and she knew that wasn't a good sign.

"Why was this in your locker Nathan?" He didn't answer. Brooke's face got red with anger. If he wasn't answering that meant he was guilty of something.

"Let me see," she said. "That girl that's pregnant. She was your tutor right? But I'm guessing she wasn't tutoring you in school, was she?" Nathan put his head down. He couldn't look at Brooke. He had betrayed her and she had found out in the worse possible way.

"Is this true Nathan?" she yelled, tears welling up in her chocolate brown eyes. Nathan hating seeing her this way. He nodded, and without another word she stormed off. He didn't know what to do so he decided to skip school. He couldn't face Brooke again today, and he couldn't face Haley, so he just decided to leave.

Maggie and Haley were sitting at one of the picnic tables on the quad eating lunch when Peyton walked over to join them. "Hey you guys, is it ok if I sit with Brooke today? She's really upset about something."

"She found out didn't she?" Haley asked. Peyton nodded.

"Go on," Haley said. "And tell her I never meant to hurt her like this," she told Peyton as she was walking away. Peyton turned around and nodded again before walked off to a table far across the quad where the popular people sit. The popular people, who after today, will probably hate her guts.

"What are the odds that Brooke doesn't tell anyone?" Haley asked.

"Truthfully?" asked Maggie. "I would have to say one and a million."

"That's what I thought," Haley said. "God, why does all this have to happen to me?"

"Why does anything happen to any of us?"

"You sound like a fortune cookie," joked Haley and they both laughed.

They sit there for a couple minutes and eat their lunch. "I looked up adoption on the internet the other night," Haley confessed. Maggie was the first person she told this to.

"Oh," said Maggie. "So do you think you're going to do it?"

"I don't know," Haley said. "I mean it's such a big decision. But they have all different kinds of adoptions and they even have one called an open adoption where I can see the baby and get pictures and stuff."

"Yea, but do you think you would be able to see your baby after giving it up?" asked Maggie. "Don't you think that would make everything harder?"

"Maybe," Haley said. "I'm just trying to find something that I think would work out, but there doesn't seem to be anything that would."

"I'm sorry hun," Maggie said, "but I think this is a lose/lose situation."

Haley nodded. "I just don't know what to do, and no one else seems to know either."

"Because no one else can make this decision for you," Maggie said. "You have to on your own." Haley nodded because in her heart she knew it was true.
