BECKY AND LILYS POV!

"Becky you ready to go?"

"Yes Lily, lets get this thing over with seriously!"

Few minutes later, Lily and Rebecca pull upside Nathan's house. They see that Brookes car is outside.

"Who's car is that Becky?"

"Its my Aunt Brooke I think." Haley got out of the car. "Or not, that's the bio mother!"

"What's she doing here then?"

"I don't know but she better not make this a regular thing because I don't want her back in my life!"

"What the hell is she holding?"

"I don't know, might be the next Harry Potter novel you never know she might be a secretly J.!"

"Maybe, wonder what she is doing though?"

"Probably trying to snake back into my Dad's life. Or maybe the paper is reason why she is such a bitch?"

"Wow your Dad looks slightly wasted"

"He looks like a fricking tramp. He does not look happy to see her at all!"

"Do you think he will let her in?"

"He just did Great nice on Dad. He should have told her to fuck off I would!"

"Maybe this gives him the chance to find all the answers to them unanswered questions that he has over those 17 years?"

"Maybe but I just don't want her to upset him anymore than he already is. She might make things worst!"

"I'm sure she wont, you never know she might make things better?"

"Doubt it, she will make things worst. I don't want my Dad to end up in hospital from alcohol poisoning because he has drank too much. If she goes in there and starts up stirring all this shit then it is going to make him drink even more than he is now!"

"Don't worry about it Becky, lets just wait and see what she is looking like when she walks out. Then you can go in and talk to your Dad you can ask him what she said to him!"

"Okay but if she upsets him, I'm gunna kill her fucking fat arse!"

"Alright, I'll help you with that"

We waited for about 10 minutes before Haley appeared at the door again.

"There she is!"

"Lily, does she look like she's crying?" Haley ran to Brooke's car with tears streaming down her face.

"Looks like it Becky! Wonder why?"

"No idea, maybe Dad finally told her to fuck off?"

"Maybe, do you wanna see?"

"Yeah lets go see if my Dad is okay. Urm Lily? Is it okay if I go talk to him on my own for a bit. It will only be like 10 minutes I'll come and get you if everything goes okay?"

"Becky that's completely fine, I was expecting that anyway don't worry!"

"Thanks Liles!" Rebeccca didn't know what to expect, her father has been so depressed and drunk she didn't even know if he was sober. I got out of the car and went into the house. "DAD? DAD YOU IN HERE?"

"Living room!" I walked into the living room. He was sat on the sofa in front of the TV. I have never seen him like this, he looked like the living dead. His face was completely white, his eyes bloodshot and puffy, his hair was all messy.

"Dad are you okay?"

"Rebecca what are you doing here? Shouldn't you be with your Mother?"

"I came to see you Dad. How are you?"

"What does it look like? I'm drunk all the time, I've lost yet another wife and my daughter hates me no offence Becky but no I am a complete mess!"

"I don't hate you Dad, I am worried about you everyone is. You need to lay off the drink, otherwise you are going to make yourself ill"

"Why what's the point? I have nothing left anymore you left me Rebecca"

"Dad please don't be like that! What did Haley want? Me and Lily saw her come here? What did she say to you?"

"So you and Lily are spying on me then? Where is Lily, behind the wall?"

"She is in the car. No we wasn't spying I came to see you and she was already here. What was all that paper?"

"I don't know Lily okay, I don't know! Just please go back to your Mother you don't live here anymore remember" I can't believe that he said that to me. I don't understand what is going on with him. I know I just walked out but that is not the point.

"Fine Dad. I will go" I know he is hurting, but seriously! I walked out the house tears came streaming down my face, when I got in the car Lily looked very worried.

"Becky what's wrong? Is your Dad okay?"

"He hates me Lily. He basically told me to piss off, he hates me completely I never should have left him!"

HALEY'S POV!

"Come on Haley just get the hell on with it. Its not like he is going to kill you, well okay maybe he might but there is a high chance that he is not going to kill you. He might want to talk to you! Just get on with it!" I quickly checked my appearance I couldn't be bothered with make up, I mean Nathan has seen me worst so it doesn't really matter if I doll myself up. I got out of the car and took a deep breath before knocking on the door. No-one came at first so I tried again.

"ALRIGHT I'M COMING!" He sounded angry, well done Haley great one. You've made him mad now. He swung the door open. He didn't look like the real Nathan. His what where bright blue eyes looked sadden and darkened. His eyes where all puffy and blood shot, his hair was messed up completely not as need as usual.

"Haley?"

"Hi Nathan, look I need to talk to you, it will only be for a minute I just need to tell you something. Please can I come in?"

"Yeah okay" He opened the door more and I walked in. The house was nice really nice. It was massive a complete mess though, empty takeaway boxes and beer bottles everywhere. "Wow you have a nice house Nathan!"

"Yeah whatever, look Haley what did you want exactly?" Nathan had changed he wasn't the man I met in high school. He was saddened and depressed, I have never seen the hurt in his eyes like this. Nathan Scott was different.

"I just wanted to say that I am sorry okay"

"A little late for that don't you think. 17 years too late in fact Haley!"

"Please don't be like that Nathan. Something happened that day, I didn't want to go but I had to okay. I just wanted to give you this" I handed him the contract and the letter which was attached to the front of it. "Just please read the letter and see what I have to say. I didn't want to say it face to face because I know you aren't exactly in the best of places at the moment. I thought if I came round here and starting saying this it would make things worst, so I decided to write it down. That way you can decide to either read it or burn it. But whatever you do I need you to burn it after please, it explains it in the letter but please just burn it after"

"Haley what are you on about?"

"Just read the letter Nathan please. And look after yourself your daughter needs you too be okay, you need to stop the drinking Nathan its not the answer" After saying that I could see his eyes darken more. I couldn't bare to see him like this anymore, not without being able to hold him and tell him that everything is going to be okay. It is killing me inside, as I shut the door behind me tears formed in my eyes, I tried to stop them but I couldn't. A picture of his hurt filled eyes lingered in my mind. I could budge it, I think I made a mistake taking him that. What if it makes things completely worst and he ends up getting alcohol poisoning or something! He is going to hate me ever more now!

Normal P.O.V (:

After Lily left Nathan's house, Nathan sat on the coach with the contract and letter in his hand debating whether to read it or not. He decided it that he would. He opened the envelope and starting reading the letter….

Dear Nathan,

If your reading this I am glad that you decided to. Look I am really sorry that it has taken 17 years for me to explain this to you. There is a reason that I left all those years ago. I mean its me Nathan, could you really believe that I would leave you the love of my life and our daughter just for some stupid tour and music carer. I left all those years ago because Chris tricked and blackmailed me. He said to me that he would kill you if I didn't go on tour with him for a year and a half or if I told you the real reason that I went. He even showed me the loaded gun and said that all he had to do was pull the trigger, which is why I didn't tell you I was trying to protect you and Rebecca. I was so scared, he gave me this really long contract and said I had to sign it and it meant I would go on tour for a year and a half and no long. I didn't read the contract cause it was so long and I just wanted to protect Rebecca. Anyway turns out that he tricked me and the contract was for 19 years. I hated it on tour Nathan, I went through depression and everything. I didn't want to tell you Nathan because I was scared, I didn't know what to do. I tried so hard to get out of the contract, I hired lawyers and everything but I just couldn't get out of it! I just wanted to come back to you, to be in your arms again, tell you that I love you and to raise our daughter together. But I couldn't because of this stupid contract! I am so sorry that I was so stupid to sign the dam thing, I wish I had told you and we might have been able to sort things out or I don't know you could have come with me or something. It was all my fault if I could go back I would do things completely differently. Believe me I wish I could!

Anyway me and Brooke hired the best lawyer in the state, and even he couldn't do anything about the contract. So we took a visit to go and see Chris, we tried talking him into letting the contract go. But he said some things about you and Rebecca that I didn't like and I got mad, I kind of ended up punching him to the floor and kicking him. I grabbed the contract and we legged it, we then burned it. The copy that you have is my copy from my agent. Even if you need to show this to Becky, or someone please for my sake Nathan can you either give it back to me or burn it yourself. I can't have this contract around anymore, because Chris is going to come looking for it, if he finds it then I will have to go back to him. I really don't want to do that Nate, I don't want to go back on that tour bus. I hated it was the worst time of my life I don't think I can do it again. I was grateful that I nearly died, I mean how weird is that! Grateful that I crashed in the bus! Now that I am out of this contract I am staying Nathan, I want to stay in Tree Hill. Get my own place and a stable job, if that is okay with you. If it is going to cause trouble between you and your family I can go live in New York. I don't want Rebecca to get the wrong idea, I am not trying to snake into your and hers lives again, I hurt you and I understand that. Therefore if you and her don't want anything to do with me then I am going to respect that and say out of your way.

I know this is self-fish to say this but I need to. I have been lying to myself and Brooke, I said that I didn't love you anymore. But that is the biggest lie I have ever told. Of course I still love you Nathan, with all my heart you hold the key to it Nathan and you always will. I love you so much, but I understand that you don't love me back because you have moved on I just wanted to get it off my chest. Always and Forever Nathan.

Haley xoxoxoxoxoxox

"Oh my god" Tears fell from Nathans eyes as he was reading the words from his ex-wife. He couldn't believe all she had been through and he wasn't there for her. He couldn't believe what Chris had done to her! He just wanted to go round there and kill Chris Keller for what he had done!

"Haley how did it go?"

"Not so good. He looked terrible Brooke, I've never seen him like that before!"

"I have seen him worst." Lucas said as he walked into the room to sit next to Brooke.

"What do you mean Lucas?" Haley looked confused what could he possibly mean?

"Well when you left Haley he was twenty times worst than this. This is just his light compared to 17 years ago believe me!"

"Ohh right, I know I hurt him Luke. He might not ever forgive me for that but I have to say I am glad that I gave him the contract just to prove that I didn't leave him for the reasons that he thinks. But I am worried that it will make things completely worst, I am worried he will hate me more?"

"Don't worry about it Haley. I know my brother, he will be glad that you have told him. He might even start to forgive you, you just need to make sure that you give him time!"

"I will Lucas I promise, I am just really worried about him right now." Lucas's phone rang he looked down at saw the caller ID..Nathan.. He got up walked out the room and answered it.

"Hey Nathan, what's up?"

"Lucas I need to talk to you. Can you come over?"

"Sure Man I'll be there as fast as I can!"
