Whispered Secrets

Chapter (7) Hate To Love The Closeness

It was now late in the evening a little after seven. Lucas and Haley, were now settled in front of the TV watching Uptown Girls. Haley's choice of coarse because Lucas chose the movie the night before last (the night before the party). They still couldn't believe after tonight they only had one more night together before Lucas would be leaving. And Even though they had spent this whole week together they still would miss each other beyond what they would say, what they would show.

Haley was sitting at one end of the couch while Lucas was sitting at the other. Haley obviously was engulfed in the movie because she didn't have the faintest idea that Lucas was staring at her. He watched as she played with her hair, twisting it around her finger before tucking it behind her ear * god if she only knew how sexy that was* then he traced her lips with his eyes then trailing back up to her eyes, he figured he could look at them for hours. "what?" he heard Haley's voice. He had been caught staring, he quickly covered his tracks though. " I don't know how you can be so into this movie and then make me suffer by making me watch it. Mean, just plain mean" Haley's eyes were now directed at him while she spoke " I am not mean, you have no mercy when I sit through your movies. And speaking of mean I'm sitting over here freezing while the covers are all wrapped around you." (she said now pouting)

Lucas; You were the one that decided to sit all the way at the other end of the couch. Come on, (he lifted the sheet up while opening his arms and signaling for her to come sit by him). She just moved over next to him and under the thin blanket. She didn't have to worry about being cold any more. She shifted to get comfortable and with out even really noticing, she laid her head on Lucas's shoulder. She had just got so use to doing that it just felt normal, the only way she would be comfortable. After Lucas knew she was comfortable he put his arm around Haley's back lazily. Nothing was new this is how the position they usually ended up on movie nights.

Lucas; better? (he asked in a low voice looking down at her)

Haley: yeah, much (she smiled up at him)

Haley had really giving up trying to watch the moving, yeah to Lucas it may look like she was watching the movie but all she was really doing was looking at moving objects on the screen, she didn't even hear their voices. She was to caught up in her own thoughts. She could smell Lucas's cologne easily because her nose was like buried in his shirt and she loved it because the smell of Lucas enhanced the cologne and smelled just right for him. And she could feel the warmth of Lucas's skin through her shirt. This was exactly why she sat at the other end of the couch earlier because she hated being close to Lucas, to close to Lucas because she loved being close to him. It sounded ridicules because how could you hate being close to some one because you loved being close to some one, but it was like a torture to her not to be able to act on what she was feeling.

Lucas gave up trying to watch the movie all together because he couldn't watch it even before he and Haley were so close that she was laying on him. Even before he smelled her hair, even before his arm was resting on her back even before he had to fight the urge to turn this movie off and tell her how he felt right before kissing her till air was no longer optional. Haley had gotten the remote and turned the T.V off and Lucas's hadn't even noticed. Haley assumed he was off in la la land some where.

Haley: Luke! Luke!

Lucas: huh? What hales? (he turned toward the TV and was surprised to see it off.) "the movie's gone off .thank god"

Haley: Oh you finally came back down to earth. Hope it was fun. And no the movie didn't go off I just turned it off. Wasn't really in the mood to watch it.

Lucas: oh so you finally agree with me for once, that that the movies you pick out are not worth watching. (he said smiling figuring he had finally won)

Haley: No it's not that. My mind just wasn't on it (she said still looking like she was contending with her own thoughts)

Lucas; any thing you want to talk about? (he said trying to offer a listening ear)

Haley: oh no, nothing you could help me with (she said nervously)

Lucas picked up on it though.

Lucas: Haley the only time you get nervous about talking with me about something, it usually has something to do with the opposite sex. And come to think of it you have been writing in that diary of yours more then usual. It's like every chance you get. (he said in a matter of factly kind of way with his teasing voice. Oh how she hated when he did that.

Haley: (hated that Lucas knew her so well, but she was going to deny it any way). I have not, and it is not a about the opposite sex (she meant to say it with more …. Something, But either way he didn't believe her)

Lucas: I am suppose to believe that right (he gave her that nice try look)

Besides you're all blushing and smiling all girly. (he laughed at his own comment and the way he said "girly")

Haley: I didn't know there was a girly smile (she said in hopes of changing the topic)

Lucas; Well obviously you made one up just for him. (he said in his steady teasing voice)

Haley didn't say anything and just laid back on the other end of the couch with her face in the pillows.

Lucas; come one Hales tell me. Just tell me who it is and I'll leave you alone. (Lucas was curious to find out while he was just doing a good job at locking away his jealousy and how he felt. He felt he did more cover up that night then maybe any over night with Haley with the exception of last night)

Haley : you want to know who it is? I mean really? (she said as she looked up at him from her pillows, a devious smile crept on her face.)

Lucas: yeah, who?

Haley: I don't know, I don't think I should tell you.

Lucas; come on

Haley: okay, okay….it's Keith

Lucas: Keith?

Haley: yeah, I did tell you I like older men right? (she almost blew her cover because she wanted to laugh so bad when she saw his face.)

Lucas: and you expect me to believe that.

Hales: believe what ever you want, but I don't come around here every day to see you. (she said coolly and in her best convincing voice, she loved playing with him and she was getting him good. She was trying to decide whether or not to tell him now or later that she was playing she decided on later. It was more fun this way.lol

Haley: Well I'm about to go hit the shower, I'll be back down after that though. Oh and promise to keep this hush hush. (as she put a finger to her mouth and she ran upstairs and laughed her but off. She could see his terrified face. She knew this wrong, so wrong but it felt oh so right messing with Lucas like that.lol

Lucas was still in one place he had a terrified shocked, surprised look on his face. Keith? He said to one but himself.

A/N: hahahahahahahahahahhha. I thought that was funny. I'm sorry if yall don't find it funny but I had to do that, I wanted to do something different and maybe try to sike yall out when Haley asked him did he really want to know. It's still kind of to early for that yet but it will happen soon…..hopefully. Lol
