More Than What It Seems ch38
Nathan's head had been spinning the last few days. He hadn't had any down time since arriving in Charlotte. He spent the first day unpacking and getting used to his new place and surrounding area. In the days that followed he spent time with clay getting all the legacy stuff sorted out. So today was his first proper day off.
After his morning run he came back to the house and decided to give Lucas a call. He waited for him to pick up.
"Hi Lucas," he spoke into his phone.
"Hi Nate, how's Charlotte?" he questioned to him.
"It's great, just super busy the last few days sorting everything out," he explained to him.
"That's good to hear, how are you enjoying the team?" he questioned to him.
"Everything with the team is going great and I'm really enjoying it," he commented to him.
"So have you spoken to Haley yet?" Peyton said she hasn't really been focused with her music and thinks Haley is worried about you," he explained to him.
"I feel bad that I haven't called or texted her. I just think if I did I'm going to miss her even more than I always do," he confessed to him.
"Well I would rather you be dealing with that than dealing with a girlfriend who does know if you're okay or not, "he replied to him.
"Okay I got your point I will definitely contact her today," he replied to him.
"Good because I'm about to pick Peyton up for lunch, if they ask who I was talking too. I'm saying it was you," he commented to him.
"Don't do that, it will really piss Haley off," he replied to him.
"Well you better get calling her then," he spoke before ending the call.
Nathan ate staring at his phone for a few minutes before he made any attempt to call her.
"Okay Haley, that will do for now," Peyton commented to her.
"Okay," she spoke taking off the headphone coming out of the studio.
"You want to tell me what's going on?" Peyton questioned to her.
"I'm worried about Nathan," she replied softly to her.
"I'm sure everything is grand. He probably just has a lot of things to sort out," she spoke giving her a reassuring smile.
"I know that, I'm just missing him a lot," she replied to her.
"I'm sure you will hear from him soon," she commented to her.
"I hope your right," she replied softly.
Nathan had finally dialled her number but it had gone straight to answer phone. He was a little sad that he couldn't get hold of her. So he decided to call Brooke to see if she was with Haley.
"Hey bro," she spoke seeing his call coming through.
"Hi," he spoke softly.
"What's up?" she questioned to him.
"Are you with Haley?" he asked softly.
"No, she is in the studio with Peyton," she explained to him.
"That explains why her phone is off then," he commented to her.
"Well it's about time you contacted her, she has been missing you like crazy," Brooked confessed him.
"I have been missing her too, which is why I kind of have been advoiding calling her," he replied to her.
"There is no sense in that. Now I'm going to call Peyton and get her to tell Haley that you have been looking her," she explained to him.
"Thanks you're the best sister," he commented to her.
"I know," she replied to him before ending the call.
Brooke quickly dialled Peyton number, "hi is Haley still with you?" she asked once Peyton answered her phone.
"Well hello to you too," Peyton replied to her.
"Peyton is Haley still there?" she asked again.
"Yeah, why?" she questioned to her.
"Get her to turn her phone back on," Brooke explained to her.
"Right okay," she commented to her.
"Good luck dealing with an angry Haley," Brooke spoke before quickly ending the call.
"Who was that?" Haley asked seeing Peyton look at her.
"Brooke," she replied softly to her.
"What did she want?" Haley asked her.
"She was looking you actually," Peyton replied to her.
"Did she say what she wanted?" Haley asked her.
"Yeah, she wants you to turn your phone back on," she commented to her.
"Oh right, I'll do it now," she spoke searching her phone for her bag.
"Haley, I'm sorry I made you turn it off," she commented softly to her.
"Why are you sorry?" Haley asked a little confused.
"Hey girls, Hales how's Nathan?" Lucas asked walking in.
"Um I don't know I haven't heard from him," she replied to him.
"Oh right," Lucas spoke a little annoyed with Nathan.
"Well we are off to lunch. Don't worry about the rest of the day Hales," Peyton spoke trying to get out of their as fast as she could.
Haley phone finally starting vibrating signalling she had a few messages and she looked down at the screen. She soon saw that she had two miss calls from Nathan.
"Peyton," she spoke softly.
"Yeah," she replied to her.
"That rule that the phone has to be off," she commented to her.
"Yeah what about it?" she questioned to her.
"It's not happening anymore," she replied to her.
"Fine by me," she replied to her.
"Well Haley I hope you are able to get hold of him," Lucas commented to her.
"Yeah I hope so too," she replied to him.
"Bye Haley," Peyton spoke her and Lucas left.
Haley quickly grabbed her things and headed straight off the car. When she got there she dialled his number waiting for him to answer.
"Hi Hales," he spoke answering it.
"Hey, I'm sorry about earlier," she commented to him.
"It's okay, I know you were working. Sorry I haven't called sooner," he replied softly to him.
"It's okay I know you're working too. So how are you getting on?" she questioned to him.
"Things are good just busy. How is everything with you?" he questioned to her.
"Good, I just miss you a lot," she replied honestly to him.
"I miss you too baby," he commented to her.
"Well I decided to sleep at mine while you're away," she commented to him.
"Why?" he asked her.
"It doesn't feel right being at yours when you aren't there," she explained to him.
"Fair enough, so where are you now?" he questioned to her.
"Sitting in my car outside the studio," she replied to him.
"Well drive to your and let me know when your home and we can skype. I miss your pretty face," he commented to her.
"Okay, talk to you soon," she spoke before ending the call and heading to her place.
