Chapter 11. Will the Will move waters once so still?

Today was the day Brooke had said. While I applied some make up, to cover up my puffy eyes from all the crying I did over the last four weeks, I thought about our 'game plan' as Brooke had called it. Brooke loved these after all. Especially now, that I was about avenging his death.

I straightened my clothes and looked in the mirror at my little boy dressed in black sitting on my bed behind me. Today his will was read and I was in it apparently so Jamie and I were coming with Brooke. We had arrived in New York last night and today was the day. He never told me he made a will or that he changed it, but apparently he loved me enough, us enough to want to make sure we were okay if he suddenly died, even though Jamie weren't supported by Nathan. I applied some mascara and blush and then turned around to Jamie. "Are you ready little man?" I asked Jamie. Nathan used to call him his little man, Jimmy-jam. The memory made me smile something I hadn't in a long time now.

Jamie looked up at me with his big blue puppy dog eyes, he definitely had gotten that charm form his father and there wasn't going to b a person in that room doubting Jamie's father. He was like a mini Nathan.., but then with lighter hair.

A knock on the door and a friendly call from Brooke from the outside of my room, pulled me from my thought. I went to open the door and hugged my girl. "Are you ready Hales?" she asked, clearly having used make-up to conceal her own broken heart. "As ready as I'll ever be."I sighed and walked back into the room to grab my purse and to pick Jamie up from the bed. We were running a little late I knew that, but I'd been changing my mind about going so many time of the last hour..

At some point I actually felt bad for Alison, that she was feeling like she finally got rid of her arrangement with Dan and that her secret was save. Now it was coming back to haunt her, but then I just remember that it was her arrangement that cost Nathan his life and I was back on track.

When we reached the Lawyers office, I looked up at the building and stood still. "Hales? Were already late.." Brooke urged me on. I took a deep breath and said: "You go in already I'm just going to need a minute, plus the effect is so much better if they have to wait for me.." I gave her a small smile, at which Brooke grinned back broadly. "See you on the inside.." she said before taking off inside.

So there I stood taking it all in before this so long kept secret was going to come crashing down. I tightened my grip on Jamie took a deep breath and began to go in slowly…


The whole ordeal should have started ten minutes ago, but Brooke still wasn't here. I bit my bottom lip hoping it was going to be over soon and that I could move on with my life and forget about this completely idiotic family. That that moment Brooke came rushing in, completely out of breath. "I'm sorry I'm late.." She apologized and took a seat at the big round table we all sat at. The lawyer sitting at the head of the table was still going through some papers. "Ahum, Excuse me can we get started I don't have all day." Dan urged the man. Of course he did care, there was no way in heaven that Nathan left him anything.. after all what child expects to live shorter than his weak hearted father.

"Uh, I'm sorry Mr. Scott about the delay, but we're still waiting for someone." The lawyer said, looking back at the papers.. I frowned and looked at the door. Who was Nathan close with.. that he had put in his will. I looked around the table but everyone I could think of was there, the basic family and two friends you'd expect it off. Suddenly the door opened and I young girl with long curly blond hair (á la Haley Ep. 2 season 4 - where Deb shoots up the café) entered, with a little boy by the hand..

She looked like she was trying to the mask her tired features and like she was uncomfortable being there.. She also looked slightly familiar… "Haley?" It was Lucas wife Peyton that spoke up as she recognized the girl. I looked at Brooke whose face was beaming.. Haley..? Oh right that friend of Brooke that lived with her and Nathan in Charlotte. Why was she were?

"Sorry, I'm late." She apologized. Brooke pulled up a chair for Haley while Peyton kept asking her questions about why she was there.. none of which she answered.

"Good no we are all here I would like to start." The lawyer spoke. I wasn't the only one who was slightly surprised to see the girl here. "I'm sorry, Mr.. what's your name…´ Dan began. "Saltzman.." the lawyer filled in. "Mr. Saltzman, but what is she doing here?" He nodded towards the girl.

The girl flinched at the question and wrapped her arms a little tighter around her son. Now I remembered better. Haley, Brooke's best friend. The girl that she moved to Charlotte with and where Nathan stayed when he was in Charlotte. Where I'd been visiting once a year ago.. the boy had been little at the time.. about a year old I'd spend some time with her, she was a singer.

"Ms. James is in the will and so has a right to be here, Mr. Scott." The Lawyer said and took a bunch of envelops out of the file he had, of which he opened one. 'This is a letter late Mr. Scott wrote about six months ago, when he came to me to fix his will. He told me there were some things we needed taken care of that were out of the ordinary and were important may he die to soon." The Lawyer began. "He wrote letters to every single one of you… and one for all of you."

This gut feeling began to nudge me, with the idea that there was something with the fact that Haley was here right now, and I think I was partially caused by the fact that she looked exhausted.

"So I'm going to start with reading this letter to you all where after you can all read your own." Mr. Saltzman said opening the envelope. "I'm not sure how to start this letter.. since this is me talking from my grave, or whatever you did with me.-"

"A little morbid don't you think." Dan shot at the Lawyer.. I sighed and redirected my eyes to Haley.. who sat there now with a slight smile playing on her lips. " but I'm guessing this works.." the Lawyer went on. "I know you probably think it's weird that I did this like this. Instead of the regular stuff, but I have my reasons and I big part of that reason is that Haley's here." I saw Brooke take Haley's hand as the rest of the group directed their eyes at her. "the other part of it is Alison. I'm still not sure if you know by know or that this is new to you all, except Haley and Brooke, but I'm just going to tell you. Haley is here because I love her." I knew it.. my gut was right.. Somehow I'd sensed it when I was in Charlotte last year, and It angered me that he just lived half his life with her over the past three years. "I know that it was wrong.. even if it was just the fact that I hurt an extra person with my death. But I couldn't help myself falling for Haley. I'm sorry for what I did to Alison, to Milou and Lex." Suddenly I saw it. The resemblance between the boy in Haley lap and Nathan. He looked so much like him. The idea he just had another family beside mine…

Dan Scott just sat there probably slightly bumped that Nathan did the same thing to me as he had me doing to him.

"But to Haley and Jamie I wanted to say that I don't regret a second of anything, short of the times I wasn't there for you guys when I should have been. To Brooke I wanted to say thank you she knows why and to the rest of my family and friends that I love you guys. For those of you who are angry or upset with today's revelations I can only say to let it go.. Life's too short I suppose I'm the no longer living proof of it."

"Love Nathan"

My heart was beating in my throat as I felt all eyes on me and Jamie. "The boy is Nathan's?" Nathan's mother asked. I looked up to see hurt and confusion in her eyes. "Yes, his name is James. He's two years old." I spoke in barely a whisper. "two years? You have had an affair with my son, my married son for over two years and you even dare to show your face here?" Dan growled.

Ouch.. but Brooke squeezed my hand and I redirected my eye at Dan. "Actually, we had a relationship for almost four years. We met at your business event." I shot back at him feeling the anger of the hurt he brought Nathan boiling up at me. "Right.. Now I remember.. I'm quite sure I told you to stay away from him." I smiled sweetly and shrugged. "And? I just gave him my phone number.. He's the one who called me." This time it was Alison's memory that began to work and Peyton too, but she kept her mouth shut, I just saw it in her eyes that she had connected the dots of the things that had happened over the past four years. "I though he threw that coaster away.." Alison said.

"Guess, not." Brooke smiled and shrugged satisfied. I smiled at her and rolled with my eyes. The lawyer, who I'm sure felt slightly uncomfortable with the conversation handed all of us our letters. "In the letters is also what it is he's leaving to you and that will be taken care of by me automatically, I have it also on file." The lawyer said leaving the room. I looked at my letter, the last thing I had from Nathan.

"So You knew?" Lucas suddenly said to Brooke, followed by "Of course she knew" by Peyton.

"Yes I knew, and It's not all I know." Brooke said shooting daggers at Alison who swallowed hard.

"I know that most of you can shoot me right now, for supposedly ruining a relationship, maybe even killing Nathan since he was on his way back to me when the accident happene-"

"Supposedly ruined a marriage? He was married and Indeed on his way back to you, when he crashed. So what's so 'supposedly' about that. Tell me 'cause for as far as I can tell you're responsible for my son's death." Ouch.. his mother looked at me with anger filled eyes and my confidence at revealing this secret subsided.

"I'm sorry, but it's not that that makes me say these things. It's not the fact Nathan asked me to marry him minutes before he lost consciousness." Brooke looked up at me just as surprised as everyone else, because that part I didn't tell her. "It's the reason why. It's the fact that I couldn't live with always coming second that made him come home sooner." As my eyes were directed at his mom before I directed them now at Alison. "That's the reason he was in that cab. That's the reason we walked in on you and Dan in bed together.." Alison's eyes became wide and she turned pale.

"Yes, Nathan left the whole story on my voicemail, as he jumped in a cab to the airport. You know he'd figured all out, didn't even needed you to explain it all." His mom had her eyes now shooting between Alison and Dan. "You know, he honestly loved you. There was never a moment I saw him pick me over you, never. At some point I figured out that that was what I was waiting for eventually and that it wasn't ever going to come. If you'd known and you'd made him choose he would have chosen you. But you were sleeping with Dan and you weren't going to stop that ever, you couldn't. So when I say it wasn't me who ruined your marriage, I know what I'm talking about it, because there never was an honest marriage. You betrayed him before you were even married." As I took a breath I noticed I had tears in my eyes and my breath was raged.

"For as far as I'm concerned you killed him. You betrayed him, stabbed him in the back and killed him." I let my head hang as I cried while placing kisses on my boy's head. Brooke pulled her chair up to mine and hugged me. "Our pay back." She whispered.

"He was going to marry you?" His mother asked. I looked up and saw regret in her eyes. "Yes.. he called me after telling me all this on my voice mail. This time I picked up and he told me he loved me, he needed to tell me and that he was going to marry me. That he loved Brooke and Jamie too and I regret the most deciding against telling him I love him too."I wiped the tears from my eyes.

"So yes I'm upset and yes I have the right to be. I might not have been his wife, but he was the only one for me. And she took him from me, and forever this time." I took a deep breath and stood up making eye contact with Brooke. Telling to get moving, while everyone sat still waiting for something to happen, Brooke took the urn from the table and she left with me the room, when we stood outside I noticed I had been holding my breath all the way out of the building. "Thank you Brooke." I whispered clenching my son to my chest as I hugged her and the urn in her arms.

Wow.. what just happened. Did Brooke's best friend just tell us she slept with Nathan for over three years has a child with him and that Alison had an affair with Dan?

"What was it that Nathan had figured out, without you?" I asked Alison. "Haley said, that he didn't need you to tell him what was going on? What was going on?" She looked at Dan and then said; "Dan pays me to be married to Nathan. I needed money to keep my son save, he pays my mom to keep my son save I was to be married to Nathan and sleep with Dan once a month. That was the deal. Nathan came home earlier and caught us in bed together. Why Dan did this he never told me." Alison said.

"Oh my god I'm stupid!" Peyton said realizing something clearly and rushing out. "You really think I'd let Nathan get away with the fact the betrayed me?" Dan shot at Lucas. ".. Or her." He nodded towards his wife. "Yes dear. You too."

I was a little overwhelmed I left the building to find Peyton on the steps of the building with Haley and Brooke. "The song?" Peyton asked Haley. I've had all these songs in my hands.. I've brought them out I've never seen the pattern. I should have guessed it at the first. 'Does he love you'" Haley smiled vaguely and said; "It's okay Peyton. It's all over. Nathan's gone. We're going to say goodbye to Nathan in our own way in Charlotte. But you guys can come." She said acknowledging my presence.

"Let's give Nathan a worthy goodbye.." she wiped a tear from her cheek and hugged her boy closely to her chest.

The End


Tada! Finshed!

The First New Story.. We Don't fight Fair

It's Haley James, her name, it's Haley James. People just usually forgot her name the moment she told them. Haley rolled her eyes and another 'colleague' calling je Sally. Like that came anywhere close to Haley. She lowered her head on her desk and let out a deep sigh. "Okay, everyone has called me Sally today! I've worked her for two months now!" She complained to her best friend and colleague Brooke.

"I know honey, it sucks. You're just not someone people notice and remember." Her friend shrugged like she was complaining about nothing. "Thanks." Haley muttered and returned her attention back to her work.

She and Brooke worked at this company. It was some scouting company. It collected talent all over the country. Writers, musicians, models, actors en actresses, TV anchors, that kind of people.

The company was owned and built from scratch by Karen Scott. She was the head of it all. Having her scouts all over the big cities. The scouts in New York were slightly fed up with her and all quit a few days ago. She apparently was quite a nag.
Haley worked for the Literature department.
She's studied English, the only reason she got the job, but her job description didn't do much for her. Basically she was suppose to beta-read to work that they were going to publish. But than just for grammar and spelling. It was not only extreme dreading work, since she had to read stories that weren't ... her taste. Haley tried to focus on the words on her screen, but a loud squeal from her friend Brooke made her sigh and lean back in her chair. "Yes?" She asked, a little fed up with Brooke's disability to concentrate on her work.

"So, A friend of mine heard via another friend that heard it from her boss how heard it from Karen Scott herself that Karen is bringing her sons in to replace two of the Scouts that quit last week." Haley rolled her eyes. "Great, can I get back to my work now?" She asked sweetly. Brooke scoffed. "Don't use that tone with me Haley. You know you're just as excited as I am. Those boys are fine.."

"Brooke! I have boyfriend."


Second one.

Daily Doubts - Chapter 1. Haley James

I daily doubt my own sanity, especially on days like these. You know the days when you're running around trying to rush, but instead you delay everything because you get clumsy. I hate these days, so basically I hate my life. It's not true though. I don't really hate my life, it's just not easy, but whose is?

I mean I'm the youngest of four girls. My oldest sister is the only one who got off right and stayed on track. Well About Taylor I don't really think I need to say much more, that speaks for itself. Quinn, sweet Quinn. She got off right, but crashed. Her marriage ended last year and she's still recovering.

Me, well I'm not that screwed up, has yet to come.. Anyway, me and my sisters moved to another town and we moved in together. Now we have this house that is nicely sized and well we live.

I'm currently going into my last year of college, getting my teaching degree Quinn is planning on opening her own gallery for her pictures and Tay. Well She's Tay she parties and switches jobs as often as she changes her clothes.
I unpack the last of my boxes in the room and claimed as mine( the one with the ensuite bathroom!) before Taylor could, because she was flirting with the guy across the street. I giggle at the thought of Taylor finding out I claimed this bedroom! A knock on the door pulled me from my thoughts and Quinn enters. "How's going Sis?"She asks and flops on my unmade bed. ".. Fine. Something tells me that's not why you're here though.." She smiles weakly.

Quinn and I are close, we really try to make our lives work out for us even when things aren't easy. Like I just took a deep breath and signed in at another college when I found out I didn't get a full scholarship to Stanford which meant that I couldn't go at all. Now I'm at 'Tree Hill university College' that something you put on your CV. (Note sarcasm) "Yeah, some days are just harder than others you know." Quinn bites her lower lip to keep the tears from falling. "I know."I sigh blinking back my own tears. Our grief is the same reason we're here. Mom and dad died three months ago in a car crash. With no chance to say goodbye they were gone. That´s also how we got the money for the house. We sold the one they lived in, to many memories, and for now we live off the money from our inheritance. You know till Quinn starts making money with her photos and I can find a part time job to do beside my study. Counting on Taylor is usually a bad idea to make your budget balance.

Chapter 2. Nathan Scott

I think.. I'm still alive.. I squeeze my eyes tightly shut, to keep out the sunlight. I groan and turn around in my bed. Every time I wake up like this a swear to myself I'll never drink that much again, which is forgotten the first chance I get to do it again.

I try to sleep a little more, but my torturous headache was in the way of the two hours of more sleep I need. When sleep does slowly starts to claim me, loud beat music fills my apartment and makes my head die a slow death. "Argh! Cut the noise!" I groaned and pull another pillow over my head. "Seriously I'm suffering from a hangover here!" I shout, but the music doesn't stop and I look from underneath my pillow to see who was torturing me. "Lucas?" I mutter surprised. "Are you trying to kill me?" I ask and slam the pillow back over my head. I hear a muffled chuckle and the music stops. "Season's over Little brother and Home's waiting." He says cheerful. I throw the pillow at his head. "Not right now, right now I need sleep." I groan.

The season ended yesterday officially with this party and this party was the death of me. Or at least my head. 'Nathan come on, take a shower, our plane back to Tree Hill leaves in four hours." Lucas says. I drag myself out of bed eventually and hit the shower. Lucas too eager to go home. Hell I would be if I had his mother, but instead all home is to me is a controlling father and a drug addicted mother, a couple of old high school friends and a whole lot of bad memories. Ever since I signed with the Charlotte Bobcats I'm even a bigger Hero in Tree Hill than I was when we won the state championship. I let the hot water run over my divine body. I'm about every girl's wet dream.. I grin at that thought.


And the third, I haven't writen an entire Chapter of yet so this is the profile I made of the story.. (It's to keep the facts straight for myself)

Home is Where you Are

Nathan Scott is 26 and NBA player since he left Duke university when he was 22. At the time he was with his college girlfriend Carmen, who was a designer for his sister's company. Nathan's half sister Brooke was the owner and main designer of her Clothing line Clothes Over Bros, working and living in New York City. She was his one year older sister. Her mother, Victoria, got pregnant by a guy, Mr. Davis, in her junior year of college and then transferred to another college where she met Nathan's father, Dan.

For the last two years Nathan has played for the LA Lakers, and the last year he and Carmen went through a divorce after she cheated on him. He sees his daughter four days in the week, with exception to the days he's out of town for games.

His team mate Lucas James, had played for the LA Lakers for three years now. He was 28 played at a few different teams but settled with the Lakers. His family lived in LA and he liked it that way.
I felt good having his baby sister close to him especially after her Husband ran out on her when her youngest was only a year old. His sister Haley, had two children, James (Jamie) Woods and Lilly Woods, respectively 4 and 3 years old. Her husband had just left one day and never came home.

It had been two years since he left and with her 26 years and two kids it was good to have a brother in the same town. Lucas was very close with his sister and supported her in everything.

Haley pursued, especially after her husband left, her music and did this in combination with her steady job as an English Lit. teacher at a High School. Lucas' girlfriend for the past two years Peyton, worked at a record label in LA, trying to work her way up in the music business.
