"Peyton Elizabeth Sawyer," Haley stomped into the studio where she saw, Peyton sitting on Jake. She stopped her raged looked when she saw Jenny and James playing.
"Elizabeth, huh?" Jake said, "Oh baby your in trouble," Jake laughed at the comment.
"Momma," James popped up.
"Hey birthday boy, how's your day so far?" Haley picked up her son and placed it on her hip.
"Good, I guess. I just can't wait for my party," Jamie kind of bounced in his mother's arms.
Haley simply smiled at her excited boy. She wasn't sure if Nathan could come to his party just because of the fact that they basically just made out. But, James really wants him there and she defiantly wasn't sure if she had the heart to tell James that he couldn't come.
"Well, how you and Jenny get something to drink while I talk to Auntie Peyton for a second."
James nodded and started to walk with now almost seven year old Jenny. Haley walked over and closed the studio door.
"Okay, Hales. What's up?" Peyton got off her boyfriend's lap, standing in front of Haley.
"Is there something you'll like to tell me?" Haley folded her arms against her chest.
Peyton shook her head, "Like what?"
"Oh I don't know. Maybe, something like Oh Haley Nathan called you back Oh four years ago," Haley sacartically said.
Peyton body straighten at that comment, Haley noticed that Jake had straighten up as well in his seat, "Hales, you know you were in a bad place at that time,"
"So, you don't tell me," Haley voice rose in tone.
"Haley, you didn't want to hear the name Nathan, because you would burst into tears. Let alone hear his voice."
"That's not the point," Haley yelled back in as a reply, she let her voice come back to a softer tone, "things could have been different from that one little phone call that…" Haley was interrupted by Peyton finishing her sentence.
"That you at that time would have not answered anyways."
Haley simply looked at Peyton, knowing that she was right. At that time, Haley didn't want to talk about Nathan, why she overdosed, if it was because of Nathan, nothing. She just didn't want to hear about it, and she made that perfectly clear to ever around.
"I just wish I felt how I feel now," Haley said kind of looking away from Peyton.
"And how do you feel now," Peyton asked Haley bringing her attention back to Peyton's green eyes.
"I don't know," Haley very softly barely letting either Peyton or Jake here.
"Hales, you…"Peyton stopped examine her face, "Haley, your lipstick is smudged," Peyton stepped a little closer to Haley's face.
Haley's fingers automatically went to her lips, wiping slowly under her bottom lip.
"Haley, is there something you went to tell me,' Peyton titled her head, at that suspiciously.
Haley simply looked at Peyton trying to keep her cool. She was not about to tell Peyton, that she just had a hot make-out session with Nathan.
"Is Brooke in," Haley asked Peyton, totally switching the subject.
"Haley?" Peyton tried to get Haley to answer her question.
"I'll go knock on her door," Haley completely ignored Peyton pleaded, and walked out of the door.
Haley let her finger grip her hair, in defeat and in confusion. She really hadn't figured out why she had flipped out on Peyton anyways. That fact that Nathan did actually miss her, made her head flutter with these crazy thoughts of Nathan and her together again. She walked up to Brooke's closed door. She knocked two times; she looked around when she heard the rankling in the room, and Brooke's giggles.
"Oh hey Haley," Brooke smiled charmingly straighten out her skirt.
"BROOKE, ew. Is Luke in here?" Haley closed her eyes in disgust.
Brooke nodded giving Haley the biggest innocent eyes ever known to mankind.
"Hey Hales," Lucas sneaked up behind Brooke, hearing the huskily giggles coming from Brooke.
Jealousy flashed in Haley's eyes, she was so happy that Haley finally found some he loves and that he could be happy with Brooke. But, with Nathan gone for those years watching Brooke and Lucas didn't make things easy on her… at all.
"Yeah, um… just tell Nathan that he can to Jamie's party today okay," Haley told Lucas. Luke gave a simple nod, and Brooke gave both her fiancée and Haley this confused look.
"Your letting Nathan come to Jamie's party?" Brooke squinted her eyes giving Haley a look.
"Nathan is coming?!" Jamie looked at the older adults in front of him, the biggest smile plaster on his face.
The three adults looked over to Jamie's glowing face.
"Oh that's why," Brooke said giving Haley a knowing look.

"Come on big boy time to open your presents," Brooke told him excitedly.
"You know Jamie should be more excited then you, not the other way around." Peyton smiled at her best friend.
"Well, I do love party and I want him to open mine first," Brooke clapped her hands together hopped up and down.
Peyton and Haley laughed. Lucas and Jake walked out of the kitchen with this huge basketball cake that Karen had made for him. Haley heard her son gasped at this cake he just knew that he was going crazy. Two words, sugar rush! Haley started the birthday song with everyone joining in. Lucas placed the cake on the table that sat in front of Jamie. Both the kids and adults finished the song.
"Go ahead, honey make a wish," Haley told him softly.
James looked up at his mother and nodded. He shut his eyes and mumbled to himself his wish.
"I wish I had a dad. I wish Nathan was my dad. Please, please!" James said to himself.
Haley heard the door open, she turned to see Nathan walking into there old apartment. He smiled lightly at the sight of his wife; he gave her a nod that was quickly returned by her. Jamie opened his eyes to see just what he wished for, standing right there.
"NATHAN," James yelled loudly making everyone look back.
"Hey buddy," Nathan smiled at his son.
"Sweetie," Haley turned to her son, "before you dig into that big cake of yours how about you open those presents," Haley offered to her son.
James nodded, "I want to open Nathan's first."
Haley took a deep breath, and nodded. Nathan walked over to James with a bag.
Here you go, James," Nathan passed the bag down to Jamie.
The room was silent as Jamie opened his gift. Lucas walked Nathan kneel down next to his son. He couldn't help, but notice how much of a family they like right now. James took a blue and white jersey with the twenty-three printed on it. James gasped, "twenty-three,"
"That's my old jersey when a first started playing little league. I thought maybe you would want it," Nathan smiled at Jamie's big bright eyes.
"Thank you, Nathan!" Twenty- three is my favorite number, mommas too." James told Nathan.
"Is that right?" Nathan asked him dumbly, daring to glance of a blushing Haley.
"Yeah! She has it on her back," Jamie informed Nathan.
Brooke laughed at the thought of Haley having to explain how she had that tattoo and why.
"Thanks, Nathan," James put the jersey his head smiling widely.
"No problem buddy,"

Later, that night Luke, Brooke, Peyton, Jake and surprisingly Nathan stayed to help Haley keep up her house and James. Brooke took James into the bathroom to get him ready for bed. Haley was sure he was going to crash; he has been jumping off the walls all afternoon. That sugar rush couldn't last forever. Jake and Lucas went out to take out the trash. Peyton decided that she was going to help Brooke. Haley shot a glare, showing her that she knew what she doing leaving her and Nathan alone. She tried to distract herself from herself from Nathan's glaze that followed her.
Today was extra-awkward for the two after that amazing kiss. Haley can't seem to look at him without feeling this weird tension thing. When he spoke her body reacted, sending shivers down her spine.
"Your goodness is staggering, Haley."
Her heart started to beat faster at his voice.
"Nathan," She tried to look at him.
"You did wonderful job with our son," Nathan got closer.
Haley closed her eyes feeling the different emotions run though her body.
"No Nathan! I did wonderful on my son. You weren't there you had bigger and better things to do. I am so sorry I wasn't enough for you," Haley heard the front door open, but she ignored it. She couldn't stop it was like word vomit. She could hear Lucas telling her to calm down, but she couldn't calm herself down.
"I hate you, Nathan. I hate you so much! You left me, Nathan. I would have done anything for you. You left me even when begged you not to go, I cried Nathan. God! You left me crying in the rain." Haley stopped at the feel of Peyton's hand on her shoulders. She didn't realize that she was crying and her breath was so strained. She couldn't find herself; she looked around seeing Jake, Luke, Brooke, and most importantly James. UGH, James watching his mother have breakdown.
"I'm sorry, Hales," Nathan said softly, he reached in his pocket and grabbed Haley's wedding ring and placed it on the counter.
"You still Mrs. Scott," Nathan turned and left out of the house.
Haley picked up the ring and squeezed in his hands. She looked at her son; he had the saddest eyes. He faced lost his glow, Haley didn't want her son to know about Nathan. She was scared that James would get attached and then he leaves them both. You could see the dried tear stains on his cheeks. The one thing he wished for has been taken away, pushed away from his mother. She finally accepted Brooke's open arms," I hate you," James said no louder than a whisper. Breaking Haley's heart even more.
