~~Chapter 5~~
Nathan sat in the dark, his Metallica CD still blasting throughout the house. He had lost her. He never wanted to hurt her. True, before he met her, his only intention was to hurt her and Lucas, but the minute she agreed to be his tutor, that all changed. He could remember that night crystal clear. The knock on his door, his surprise at seeing. He was happy then that his plan would work, but the minute she told him the only circumstance she would tutor him would be if he layed off Lucas, he knew that she was different than any other girl he had met. It started from there where he began to develop feelings for her. It started off as friends, but it slowly evolved into something meaningful.
And now he screwed it up. Truth be told, he did not regret the plan though. Because without the plan, he would never have met her. And if he had never met her, his life probably would have fell apart. But there she was..always being patient and listening...and actually caring. That was the thing that was so special about Haley. She cared. Except now she might not care.
He wasn't going to lose her. Especially to some idiot named Tim who he still want to pummel the hell out of. He didn't know how he was going to hold onto her, but he was going to.

Her vision blurred in front of her. She regained conciousness, and did not realize where she was. Then it hit her full force as the pain came back to her. She was still in her car. She struggled to move, but the pain was overbearing. She moved her arm, wincing at the pain searing through it, and found her cellphone. 911. Must call 911.
"911. What is your emergency?" The dispatchers voice came through"
"Accident. Can't Move. Help." Haley choked out, the pain was too much to bear.
"Ma'am do you know where you are located?" Concern in her voice. Haley struggled to look and saw a word.
"Burber." She mumbled, her thoughts becoming fuzzy.
"Someone will be there soon. Ma'am, try to stay awake. Please stay awake." The phone fell from her hands as darkness brought her in once again.
~
The shrill ring of the phone woke Lucas up. He reached over, figuring it was Haley, finally wanted to talk.
"Halz?" He asked sleepily, concern still in his voice.
"Lucas, it's Mrs. James."
~
He ran into the hospital, panic all over his face. He ran up to the secretary.
"I'm looking for Haley James. She was brought in here a little while ago." He said anxiously.
"Sir, please sit down." She said. Lucas stared at her.
"Please, she's my lifelong friend."
"We only allow relatives, unless there is a relative's consent -"
"Lucas!" Mrs. James said as she ran out there, she looked at the secretary. "He's with us."
The secretary nodded and allowed him to go back with the family.
"How is she?" He asked, worried. Mrs. James ran a hand through her hair, tears streaming down her cheek.
"We don't know. I got a call from an officer. Oh Lucas, it was horrible. The first thing that came to my mind was that she was dead. " She cried. Mr. James pulled her into his arms.
"She hasn't woken up yet." He said sadly, and he looked towards the doors, hoping for a doctor to come through. Lucas let out a choked sound and fell into the nearest chair. The door opened right then and he shot up. It was only a police officer. He came and took Mr. and Mrs. James away. Lucas watched the conversation, and knew something was up immediatly.
"What is it?" He asked Haley's parents when they came back, They shared a look.
"Lucas, her accident was not an accident. Someone crashed into her on purpose."
~
Nathan walked into the school, a look of weariness on his face. For some reason he had not gotten any sleep last night. The fight with Haley upset him so much. His eyes went to her locker, expecting to see her and Lucas shooting him glares, but they weren't there. Peyton came up to him, concern on her face.
"How are you?" She asked softly. He shrugged his shoulders.
"Regretting a lot. I've lost her. I still want to kill Tim for what he did." He said, pain evident in his voice.
"You're still mad about the truth or dare game?" She asked, confused.
"What else would I be mad about?" It hit Peyton at that moment that Nathan didn't hear about the accident. He noticed her hesitation.
"What is it, Peyton?" He asked.
"Nathan, Haley was in an accident last night."
~
"Hey Halz. You got to do me a favor and wake up." Lucas pleaded to his friend. He held her hand in his. He was going to kill whoever did this to her. The cuts on her face. The impact of the crash caused her head to hit the steering wheel too hard, that's what knocked her out. The doctors said it was a miracle that she somehow woke up and called 911 before going back to being unconsious. He wanted her just to wake up.
"Come on, Haley. You have to wake up because if you don't...I do not know what I would do. I need you. You're my lil sister and I promise you...I'm going to make whoever did this to you pay..they're going to pay." A tear streamed down his cheek and he roughly pushed it away. Her mom came into the room.
"Lucas, would you mind?" She asked, guestering to her daugther. He stood up and hugged her.
"Not at all." He left the room. He had a mission to go on anwyays.
