(PT.2) Later on that Night

Haley had been sitting in her living room. She couldn't sleep. She couldn't do anything but think about Nathan. She had confessed that she loved him and he had kissed her back. It was like they were in some kind of realistic dream and then it ended and everything was shot back into reality. He remembered that he was engaged. It wasn't supposed to be that way. He had given her the chance to spend her life with him and all she did was runaway. She thought hard and then made an decision.

"I'm not going to let him go again. I know that he loves me I could tell it in his kiss." She said as she ran out of the house. Haley took out her keys and got in the car.

Nathan was laying on the couch. He couldn't believe what happened. The thoughts of that moment were going around his mind when he heard a knock on the door. At first he thought he was imagining it, but when it knocked again he got up and answered it. He pulled the door open and stood there. Haley was standing in front of him.

"Nathan....may I come in?" she looked up into his eyes.

"Yeah. Please. I'm sorry it's just that I didn't expect to see you." He moved and let her in.

Haley walked into the cottage and looked around. She walked over and leaned against the couch. She inhaled deeply and then exhaled.

"Nathan, you kissed me and I kissed you."

Nathan nodded and walked closer to her. "Yeah. It shouldn't have happened, and I'm sorry."

Haley shook her head. "Don't be sorry. I can't do sorry. I wanted to kiss you and when we kissed I knew that you felt the same way. So please don't be sorry because I'm not." A tear fell from her eye and Nathan took his thumb and gently wiped it away from her cheek. The electricity from his touch sent shivers through both of their spines. They pulled away from each other before anything could happen.

"Hey I have an idea. Let's play Monopoly. Unless your too scared."

"Bring it on Mr. NBA."

Nathan pulled the game out of the closet and set it up on the table. Haley sat on one side of the table, and Nathan was on the other. They laughed, talked, and had a good time together. The time flew. Haley had beaten Nathan in three games straight. Nathan wanted to quit so they put the game away and sat down to talk.

"Hey Haley, remember the first time that it rained and we were together. I remember the first time I found out you were afraid of thunder."

"Shut-up…I was so not afraid of thunder. I was afraid of lighting, but I wasn't and I am not afraid of thunder." Nathan cocked his head to one side and laughed. "If you weren't afraid of thunder then why did you grab on to me in the storm. You held me so tight that I almost couldn't breath."

Without thinking Haley blurted out, "Yeah well…from what I remember. You couldn't breath for a totally different reason." Her words caught her and she paused. "I…uh…I.... I didn't mean that. I don't know what I was thinking." She became a bit uncomfortable, and Nathan could tell.

"Hales, you have nothing to be sorry about. Look, that was the past. We did it and we can't go back and change it. Besides we made a promise remember, no regrets."

She remembered. She remembered all the promises they made to each other. She thought about it and grabbed Nathan's hand. She was quiet for a moment, then she turned to face him.

"Who am I kidding? Nathan, I love you and I will continue to love you with all that I am."

Nathan stood up and put his arms around her. He could feel her heart pounding and he imagined it was because of him. He held her close. Afraid to let go. Haley ran her fingers through his hair. She had wanted him for so long. There was a stereo over by the television. Nathan left her side just long enough to turn it on.

They held each other close as their bodies swayed to the beat of the music. His hands were on her waist and hers were around his neck. They looked into each other's eyes and saw the world disappear. He could feel himself being drawn into her world. He loved her and he never stopped loving her. She couldn't resist him. Her hands found their way from his neck to his waist. She forgot about everything else when she was in his arms, all she felt was Nathan Scott loving her the way she loved him.

Nathan was holding her. He had longed to be able to touch her again. There was no way that he could stop himself. He needed her not just to hold, but also to have and feel and love. She was part of him, and he couldn't deny or resist her.

Haley blushed as she and Nathan glided around. Nathan pulled her closer and they slowly made their rounds on the floor. She loved being in his arms, but she would never tell him that. There was something about Nathan that just made him so irresistible, but she couldn't figure out what it was.

They were wrapped up in each other. Nathan's hands cupped Haley's face and he paused before kissing her. The kiss was intense. Their tongues danced together just as their bodies had. It was amazing. Haley could see fireworks as the feel of Nathan's lips wandered down her neck and then back to her lips.

Nathan picked her up and carried her into the bedroom. The feel of him inside of her was overwhelming. She gasped as Nathan ran through her. She ran her hands down his back gripping him tighter and tighter. He was a necessity to her. She needed him like she needed water and air. She had never been attracted to someone like him, and she didn't know what to do. The feel of him inside her was driving her crazy. She loved how well they blended together. He wrapped his arms around her and rolled them over so that she was lying on top. Both of them were silent. They didn't know what to say and it was okay because they didn't have to say anything.
