I'm glad more people reviewed! I was getting worried...I thought no one was reading this fic!

Enjoy )


Haley couldn't believe Lucas forgot their anniversary, yeah it wasn't a year but 6 months is still a big deal!

Brooke could tell Haley was preoccupied "Hey Hales, what's on your mind?"

Haley looked up "Oh hey Brooke, it's nothing." She quickly changed the subject. "So how are things with you?"

Brooke looked confused "Oh they're going okay, I can't wait until this year is over. I'm ready for some change!"

"I don't know if I'm ready for change. I mean we're all going to be going our separate ways, and I'm really going to miss this." Haley said

"Miss what?" Nathan set his lunch tray down next to Brooke's

"Friends, once we leave for college" Brooke replied

"Well I need to stop by the tutoring center before lunch ends, so I'll see you guys later and Nate I'll see you tomorrow for lunch." Haley got up and left

Brooke looked at Nathan "So lunch with Haley huh?"

"It's not like that, I'm just doing Lucas a favor" Nathan replied, knowing what Brooke was thinking

"Going out with Lucas's girlfriend is a favor?" Brooke asked

"No, it's their 6 month anniversary tomorrow and Lucas wants to do something special for Haley, so I'm just keeping her busy for couple hours."

Brooke burst out laughing "Keeping her BUSY."

Nathan turned bright red "Brooke you always have to turn everything into something perverted don't you!"

"That's my job!" Brooke said sweetly.


Haley was excited to go out to lunch with Nathan. She was glad that they both had become friends again. She hadn't realized it until now, but she had actually missed him.

Haley opened the door to find Nathan standing there smiling. "Hey Nate, just give me a second I need to grab my shoes."

Nathan walked in and watched her look for her shoes. He had missed coming to her house and picking her up for dates. But she wasn't his anymore, and he needed to move on. But he still couldn't help but notice how perfect she looked with her brown hair clipped back perfectly and how even when she was frantically looking for her shoes, she still looked beautiful.

"Nate? You okay?" Haley noticed that he was staring at her

"Oh ya. Ready to go?"

"Yup. I'm starving!"


They ended up eating at the local pizza parlor.

Nathan was about to pay for Haley's pizza when she stopped him "Nate, you can't pay for my pizza! That's not fair"

"Well how does it look if I let you pay!"

"We're friends remember, and I don't think you'd pay for Lucas's pizza right? And I know I wouldn't pay for Peyton's or Brooke's."

Nathan knew that there was no way in winning an argument against Haley so he gave in and let her pay for her own pizza.

"We really should do this more often Nate." Haley said

"Yeah I agree, I really miss this, you know?" Nathan said trying not to look Haley in the eye.

Haley smiled and continued to eat her pizza.

Back in the car Nathan looked at his watch. 4:45, perfect he thought. It was just the right time. It would take them 20 minutes to get back to the café.

"I am so full!" Haley exclaimed "I don't think I've ever eaten this much before!"

"Well I'm glad you had fun!" Nathan said

On the way to the café, Nathan and Haley continued to talk about how their lives have been,


Lucas ran into the hospital and up to the front desk

"Excuse me, can you please tell me where Haley James, and Nathan Scott are?" Lucas asked impatiently

"Sure, just wait a minute" the nurse answered

"WAIT A MINUTE? HOW CAN I WAIT A MINUTE WHEN MY GIRLFRIEND AND BROTHER ARE IN THE HOSPITAL!" Lucas exclaimed

"Sir I understand you're worried, but you need to calm down."

Lucas was so scared and worried he didn't know what was going on. "I'm sorry…it's just that I'm so scared."

The nurse tried to calm Lucas down "I understand. But please it would really help us if you sat down and waited for the doctor to come out."

Lucas sat and waited. He couldn't get the phone call out of his head

Lucas had been waiting for an hour. He had told Nathan exactly 5. He was starting to get worried. He had already called both Nathan and Haley's cell phones about 10 times and neither of them answered. He was just about to leave and look for them when his cell phone rang. He didn't recognize the number but still picked it up.

"Hello is this Mr. Lucas Scott?"

"Yes this is."

"We have some bad news. A Haley James and Nathan Scott were just admitted to the Tree Hill Hospital and they both had your number programmed in their phones. So we assumed that you know them."

Lucas was speechless "Are you sure that it's them?"

"Yes we are, but could you please come here as quick as-----

Lucas never heard the rest he had already hung up and was speeding to the hospital

"Excuse me are you Lucas Scott?"

Lucas looked up to see a man dressed in a white lab coat. "Yes I am"

"Hi I'm Dr. Coleman. I bet you're wondering how your friends are doing"

Lucas just nodded

"Well Nathan was lucky and escaped with just a few cuts and bruises. It seems to me that the car was hit on the passenger side."

Lucas sighed, but he still needed to know about Haley. "And Haley James? How is she?"

"Well, she still hasn't woken up yet, and we can't say anything until she has."

"Is there any way I can see her?" Lucas asked

"Sure, but only for a while."

Dr. Coleman led Lucas to Haley's room. When Lucas saw her he couldn't move. There lay the love of his life looking so fragile and delicate connected to about 20 different ivies and machines.
