Disclaimer: I don't own anything except for the storyline. Although I wish that I could own James Lafferty. I mean hello, have you seen that boy!

"Chris." Haley stated.

"Felix." Brooke said.

"Rachel." Both girls said when they noticed the red head standing behind the two men in front of the table.

"It's good to see that you still remember us, girls." the scrawny man with tall blonde hair said as he stepped closer to Haley, causing her to lean closer to Nathan. When he noticed her discomfort, he protectively put his arms around her waist and held her close.

"What do you want, Chris? How did you even find us?" Haley questioned as she leaned onto Nathan's chest and snuggled on his lap.

"It's simply, Haley. I want to cause you the same pain that you caused me when you called off our wedding." Chris replied casually.

"You don't think that you caused me pain? You cheated on me with one of my best friends!" Haley yelled, as tears started to fall from her eyes.

"Maybe you should just go." Nathan said trying to get the group in front of them to leave.

"So, you must be Haley's new boyfriend." Chris said, finally noticing that Haley was sitting on Nathan's lap. "You know, you might not want to get too attached to her. See Haley will string you along and then dump you for this guy she dated in high school, not that he would date her. I mean look at her." Chris said he pointed to Haley, who now had tears streaming down her face.

"I know what you mean." everyone sitting at the table turned to give Nathan a shocked look. "She's absolutely gorgeous, and way out of your league. Also, it's a good thing that Haley would dump any guy for her high school boyfriend, seeing as she is sitting on his lap. Now, I suggest that you leave before I make you."

Chris, Felix and Rachel instantly moved towards the entranceway of the café after noticing that Nathan could easily best up both guys by himself not even thinking how much damage he could do if Lucas helped.

"Don't worry, Haley, you haven't seen the last of me." Chris said with a smirk as they walked out the door as Nathan sent him a glare and held Haley closer to him. When the group of friends finally thought the two guys and the girl had left, one guy re-entered the café and approached the table, specifically Brooke.

"I'd watch my back if I were you, Brooke." and with that the Spanish man with black hair exited the café, joined Rachel and Chris and they sped off.

"Tigger, are you okay?" Haley asked when she noticed how scared her best friend looked.

"Yup. I'm fine." she replied putting a cheery smile on her face, but when Haley looked into her eyes she could see that for some reason Brooke was really afraid. But Haley wasn't the only one who noticed the look in Brooke's eyes.

"You know what? I feel like a chocolate chip muffin. Hales, Brooke. Can you guys help me get one from the kitchen?"

"Karen, why the hell do you need help getting a muffin?"

"Because I do, Lucas. Now come on, girls." Karen said as she dragged Haley and Brooke away from the table and towards the kitchen, leaving the two guys back tat the table.

"So who do you think those people were?"

"Well, the scrawny one was Haley's ex-fiancé. And I think the girl was one of the friends from back in California. And I don't know who that other guy was, but they all better stay far away from Haley." Nathan threatened, not sure he could control himself from beating the crap out of Chris if he saw him again.

"I know what you mean. I have a really bad feeling about that Felix guy. I saw how scared he made Brooke, even though she won't admit it."

"Well, we will just have to make sure that one of us is always with them. Nobody will try anything if we are around."

"I hope you're right, Nathan."

"Okay, Brookie, tell the truth. Are you alright?" Karen asked once they were alone in the kitchen.

"Yea, Momma Karen. I'm fine."

"No, you're not. Stop lying to us, Brooke Penelope Davis! Now tell us the truth. Why are you so afraid of Chris's best friend?" Haley demanded.

"I'm not alright okay!" Brooke yelled. "Don't make me tell you here. Let's just get the boys and go back to the apartments. I'll tell you then." Brooke pleaded with the other two women.

"Okay. You guys go ahead. I'll just close up and meet you guys there."

"Karen, you don't have to close up early. This can wait till later."Brooke said, trying to delay them.

"No, it can't, Brooke. I saw how scared you are of that guy. I'll just say that I have a family emergency, which I do, and I'll kick everyone out. Okay?"

"Okay, but don't do this because of me."

"I'm not, Brooke. Come here you two." Karen said as she pulled the two younger women into a hug and then started to talk again. "Now listen well. You two are like daughters to me. I can tell when you guys need me and right now is one of those times, so don't argue with me. Now go out front, get the boys and I'll meet you in you apartment in 15 minutes. Understood?"

"Yes, Mom."

"Good, now go." Karen said as she pushed them out of the kitchen and she started to turn off the machines.
