"We don't have to do this if you don't want to," Haley spoke nervously pulling up to her parents house.
"Relax Hales. I told you I wanted to do things properly and besides, it's just dinner," he spoke with a reassuring smile.
Haley walked up the path with Nathan and opened the door, "here goes nothing."
"Haley bob, is that you?" Lydia called out to her daughter.
"Yeah," she spoke coming into the kitchen.
"Well Nathan Scott, it's good to see you again."
"It's nice to see you too Mrs. James," he spoke nervously smiling at her then at Haley.
"Jeez! You can call me Lydia. You have known me long enough," she commented.
"What's for dinner?" Haley asked looking at all the food.
"Prime rib with mac n cheese."
"I guess some things really do never change," Nathan spoke excited, Lydia was making his favourite.
"I had to make something to make sure you would be sticking around," she spoke teasing him.
"Mom!"
"Relax Haley Bob. Nathan knows I'm just teasing," she spoke seeing the shocked look on her daughters face.
"Yeah Hales, it's fine. I'm well used to your mom's sense of humour," he spoke smiling at her.
"Can we eat yet?" She asked totally starving. Getting her period seemed to be making her more hungry than normal.
"Yeah, go ahead and sit at the table and I'll bring the food right in," she suggested to them.
"I'm glad your mom suggested we do this," he commented to Haley.
"yeah it all seems to be going fine so far."
"Hales, you have nothing to worry about. Relax and I really have missed your mom's cooking. So I'm glad I'm getting it again," he spoke smiling.
"Oh so it didn't matter how dinner was going to go. As long as you have mom's cooking," Haley questioned to him.
"Yep!"
"What are you two arguing about now!" Lydia spoke bringing in the food.
"Oh just talking about how much I have missed your food," Nathan explained as he piled up his plate.
"Glad to see you haven't changed," Lydia commented to him.
"Yeah, he's always eating," Haley joked shifting the food around on her plate.
"For someone who was starving. You haven't eaten very much," her mother pointed out.
"Sorry I was just nervous about dinner," she commented to her.
"You have nothing to worry about Haley. So Nathan how is the basketball going?" Lydia asked him.
"The team's doing great. I'm finding it hard to be away from Haley again," he confessed to her.
"Well Haley has a break coming up with school. Maybe she could travel with you to your next away game," Lydia suggested to them.
"That sounds like a great idea."
"I'm not sure. I thought we were still keeping things private," she spoke softly shifting in her seat.
"Well you could get a late flight and no one would have to know," he suggested trying not to show how hurt he was feeling.
Haley could see the hurt in his eyes, " I guess you're right," she spoke giving him a reassuring kiss on the lips.
"Aww young love," Lydia gushed over the couple.
The rest of there dinner went fairly well. They sat and talked about the old times when Nathan and Haley were first dating.
"Hales, you sure you're okay?" Nathan asked once they were back at his.
"Yeah, just thinking about what mom said," she confessed to him.
"Look I would love for you to come to visit while I'm away. If you think it's still to soon I understand," he spoke knowing that was bothering her.
"I don't mean to sound like an awful girlfriend. I just don't want everyone to blow our relationship up."
"Even if people do see us together. We don't have to let it bother us. We are in love and it's our relationship. That's all we need to worry about," he spoke letting her know how he felt about the situation.
"Thank you for making me feel better. I will definitely think about coming with you," she smiling at him.
"Thanks," he spoke softly against her lips.
"Okay," she smirked softly.
