Ch.27

The next morning, Haley woke up to Nathan rubbing his hand over her baby bump.

"Hey you." He said when she finally opened her eyes.

Haley smiled. "Hey."

Nathan was about to start talking again, but was interrupted when Haley quickly got out of bed and ran for the bathroom.

He sighed and followed her. He hated that she had to go through all of this.

Just like all the past mornings, Nathan went in and held her hair back.

Half an hour later, the morning sickness had still not stopped. Haley was now in tears as she continued to throw up, and it broke Nathan's heart.

"Hales, maybe you should stay home from school today. It's Friday, so you'll have the whole weekend to make up the work you missed."

Haley shook her head no.

"Come on, baby. Please. It's one day."

Ten minutes later, Haley was finally done vomiting. Nathan pleaded with her to stay home, but there was no point. He knew that Haley was going to go to school whether he liked it or not.

"Hales, promise me that you will come and find me if you feel even the least bit sick."

"I promise." Haley said.


Luckily, their first class was together, so Nathan would be able to keep an eye on her. As they listened to the teacher go on and on about the quadratic formula, Nathan's mind started to wander.

He was brought out of his daze when he saw Haley's hand fly up out of the corner of his eye.

"Yes, Haley?" The teacher asked.

"Can I be excused?" She said quickly.

The teacher immediately nodded her head. They had all been informed that Haley was pregnant, so they let her go without asking questions.

Haley took off out of the classroom quickly.

Nathan watched her go and knew that he had to go check on her. He looked back at the teacher with pleading eyes. She signaled that it was okay for him to go and Nathan quietly walked out of the room.

He had no idea how he was going to be able to get into the girls bathroom, but luckily, he saw Peyton at the other end of the hall.

"Peyton!" He yelled.

"What's up, Nate?"

"Um Haley's getting sick in the bathroom, so I was wondering if you could, um…"

"Make sure the coast is clear for you?" Peyton laughed.

"Yeah."

"Hang on." Peyton quickly went in. When she came out, she gave Nathan the all clear, so he went in. Peyton stayed to guard the door.

As Nathan headed into the bathroom, he could hear Haley's soft sobs.

He found her in the last stall, curled up on the ground crying.

He immediately had her in his arms and held her until she stopped crying.

When she was done, he kissed her head and looked into her eyes.

"I hate this, Nathan. I can't even pay attention in class because I'm constantly interrupted with morning sickness. You know they really shouldn't call it morning sickness when it happens all fricken day long!"

Nathan chuckled a little. "I know, Hales, but just think. Soon this will all be over and we'll have an amazing child."

"Yeah." Haley said softly.

"Baby, can I please take you home now. I'll leave too and we can go home and spend the day together. I don't want you at school like this."

"No, I'll be fine, Nate. I think it's done for a while."

"Hales…" Nathan tried to protest, but he was cut off.

"I'll be fine. Now, come on. Let's get back to class."

Haley got up and headed to the door while Nathan slowly followed behind.

"Thanks for watching the door, Peyton." Haley said.

"No problem."

They walked off to their next class together.


Nathan didn't see Haley again until lunch. He was freaking out a little at first when he didn't see her, but he calmed down when he saw Peyton and Haley walking towards him laughing about something.

Peyton had a tray full of food. She had cookies, French fries, chips, and a pop. Haley had just a water.

Nathan quickly noticed this. "Hales, aren't you hungry? You didn't get time for breakfast this morning."

"Not really. As appealing as shoving my face now just to puke it all up later sounds, I think I'll pass." Haley said.

Peyton laughed and threw a French fry at her. "Dude, I'm eating here. I don't wanna hear about that."

Haley laughed and threw the fry back at her.

After a while, Fergie, Skills, Junk, Mouth and Tim joined them at the table.

Peyton and Haley continued to talk while the guys went on and on about basketball.


Finally, school was over. Nathan was more than ready for a quiet weekend with just Haley.

Haley had other plans though.

"Nathan, I just got off the phone with Brooke. We're going to meet her and Lucas for supper tonight and then Brooke and I are going shopping, okay?" She said as she walked into the livingroom that night.

"But, Hales…" He whined.

"Oh, come on. We'll hang on with Brucas tonight and then we can have the rest of the weekend to ourselves." She leaned down and gave him a soft, teasing kiss.

Nathan groaned when she pulled away. "Fine, but after tonight, you are all mine!"

Haley laughed as she went to get changed.

"Haley!" Brooke squealed as her and Nathan walked into the restaurant.

"Hey!" Haley said. She went to hug Brooke, but she was already down talking to her stomach.

"Hello, baby. I'm your auntie Brooke. I can't wait to meet you! We're going to have so much fun."

They all laughed as Lucas pulled Brooke away from Haley's stomach.

"Hey, Haley." He said as he hugged her.

They all sat down. When the waiter came by to take their orders, Nathan couldn't wait. He had been telling Lucas how Haley had been coming up with all sorts of disgusting food combinations, but Lucas kept saying that they couldn't have been that bad. Just wait until he saw.

"And for you, miss?" The waiter asked Haley.

"I'm going to get some pasta, but can you do me a favor and just have them smother it in hot sauce?"

The waiter gave her a funny look before walking away. Nathan noticed that Lucas and Brooke's faces had visibly paled. He just laughed.


Haley didn't get home to Nathan until 10:30. She walked in and flung herself down on the couch.

"Rough shopping experience?" He asked, laughing. Everyone knew how much Brooke loved to shop, and they were all scared to go with her.

"Why did I agree to go with Brooke?" She asked, obviously exhausted.

"I couldn't tell you." He said as he walked over and sat beside her on the couch, rubbing her feet softly.

Haley moaned. "Thank you." She said softly. Her feet had been killing her.

"No problem, but you might wanna get some sleep, Mrs. Scott. Trust me; you're going to need it. If I remember correctly, you are all mine for the rest of this weekend." Nathan smirked.

Please let me know what you think! I know that not a whole lot happened, but I had writers block today! I promise that the next chapter will be better! Please review! Suggestions are always welcome!
