~Whispered Secrets~
Chapter (2) Forget Me not!
A/N: Thanks to all who reviewed for the first chapter and for the encouragement for me to continue.
Lucas opened his eyes reluctantly due to the little nicks at his window. He pulled the covers back and got up and looked out the rectangle shaped glass
And looked out into the still dark night then down and a small framed girl stood there about to throw another rock until she saw his face appear in the glass. As soon as he recognized who it was he threw on his sweat pants and ran quickly down the stairs to let her in.
Lucas: Hales is everything alright? (he said with concern in his voice as he closed the door behind her)
Haley: Yeah everything's fine. Can't I just stop by to see my best friend? (she said trying to sound convincingly) Lucas led her upstairs to his room so their voices would not wake up Keith. Lucas turned on the light in his room while Haley sat Indian style on the some what dishelved bed. He just looked at her as in disbelief. He could tell when something was wrong and that just stop by to see my best friend line wasn't working.
Lucas: so you just decided you wanted to stop by to see me at (he looks at his clock) 2:34 am in the morning, when were suppose to be walking across the stage in less then 7 hours. Talk about them urges (he said in a sarcastic tone)
Haley: you're right, I know it's late and I'm sorry I woke you up, and I know were graduating tomorrow and I'm (she stopped her voice was very shaky she was trying to some how stop the tears threatening and to stable her voice because it was shaking with tears and her eyes were now sparkling with water. She couldn't let Lucas see the tears and how scared she was but before she knew it those same tears she was battling with scrolled down her face, warm against her skin. Lucas saw this and immediately sat down beside her and wiped a falling tear from her now soaked eyes away.
Lucas: Hales you don't have to be sorry, that's not what meant. I just want you to tell me what's wrong. (he said in a soft comforting voice) He stroked her hair while she leaned against him.
Hales: I don't want you to forget about me (she said in a small voice)
Lucas: Hales? What are you talking about? I could never forget you. (he said in some what of a surprised way as if it were absurd ).
Hales: In my dream you had your life and I wasn't apart of it. You were caught up in your own world, your new world and you forgot all about me. It was like I was looking in from the outside while behind the glass was you and your new life and you were happy and some one had took my spot in your life and you forgot about me.
Lucas made her look at him in the eyes as he spoke.
Lucas: I could never forget about you even if I tried, you're my best friend now and forever remember? ( they smiled in unison at the pact they made at the age of six) No one could ever take your place, it's hard to fill your shoes. You put up with me and that's a load all in it's self and even if they could I wouldn't let them. It's already reserved for a life time by the one and only Haley James. There's no way I would be happy unless you were there. We got through koodies and secret crushes now all we have to do is get through life and were set. (they both laughed because they knew life would be the hardest part but if they made it this far, they could go the rest of the way)
Haley: Thanks, Luke for being there when I needed you and for listening to me dwelling on a stupid dream, that probably holds no value, and bares no truth what so ever. (she said laughing lightly to herself)
Lucas: It's not stupid I'm glad you came and talked to me about it.
Haley: And I really and sorry for waking you up. Especially since tomorrow is the big day.
Lucas; It's okay, Nervous?
Haley: yeah a little bit( she said smiling lightly)
Lucas: yeah me to, but this is something we've been waiting for our whole school career and I'm ready…..I think. (they both laughed)
Haley: well speaking of being ready I better get going so you can go back to sleep and I can get some sleep so we can be ready for tomorrow.
They walked back down stairs to the door.
Haley: Thanks again Lucas, for being there for my freak out.
Lucas: no problem, I learn to get used to them (a smile teasing her at his lips)
Haley: funny, funny (as she hit him playfully in his arm.)
Lucas: Bye Hales (he said giving her a hug)
Haley: Bye Luke (as they were braking apart.)
Haley left and Lucas closed the door and laid against it for a minute. And he would miss this, these late night talks with Haley. he realized that if she needed him or he needed her, he or she couldn't just walk down the street and throw rocks at each others window. The phone would become their new best friend. He minds as well add this to the already long list of things he will miss. He stood there a minute longer then went back up to his room to be defeated by sleep.
