Chapter 2 "So confused"

After school during Cheer Leading/basketball practice. Lucas was still injured so he sat in the crowd with Haley who attended practice to keep him company and watch her man in action.

"Haley can I ask you something?" Lucas asked

"Sure...wait is it about Peyton?" Haley said as if reading his mind

"Yes... I just want to know how she's doing. It's not easy being on bad terms with your best friend(Lucas smiles at Haley)"

"She's doing okay... I think... you know Peyton she's not the most open person with her feelings. Nathan and I have been hanging out with her. I'm worried about her and I'll tell her you are too" Haley says while Lucas nods thankfully

"Well practice is over... I'll see you later Luke(hugs him)" Haley sits up and runs over to Nathan who wraps her up into a long hug

"Wait for me outside okay... I need to talk to someone real quick.." Nathan said, Haley kissed him and began to walk away but Nathan pulled her back in kissed her one more time. They smiled and Haley proceeded to leave the gym. Nathan watched her walked away then walked over to Peyton who was getting her cheerleading stuff together.

"Long day huh?" Nathan said noticing the depressed look on her face, before Peyton could respond Brooke passed by them and rolled her eyes and said " You don't waste anytime do you.. Nathan...Lucas... is it time for Nathan again already?" Brooke didn't stay around for a response. Peyton pushed her hair and sighed.

"Peyton...I'm sorry, she'll come around... in the mean time, You need a ride home?" Nathan asked and soft nice tone

"Yeah, Thanks" Nathan put his arm around Peyton and walked her outside. They met up with Haley who was a little surprised to see her. They all got in the car a drove off.

The next day at school.... Nathan was talking to Tim in the locker room

"Are you still playing around with that Haley chick" Tim asked in a joking tone

"What do you mean?" Nathan said while changing into his gym shorts

"I mean...look Nathan what is this? about are you serious? That girl is so not your type. You're a playa Nate." Tim said while Nathan began to look very uncomfortable.

"Playa? Shut up Tim. Haley she's cool you know... She's nice and makes me feel good yup..." Nathan said in defense while lacing up his sneakers.

"Whatever man, what ever happen to Nathan, this girl has got you whipped. You could do whatever you wanted with Peyton, you was able to walk all over her. Not at first but after while... what you had with her was good you should get that back" Tim said, he closed his locker door and left. Nathan just slumped down on the bench in the locker room confused.

Nathan went to Peyton house later on that day... He went up to her bed room and knocked on the door. She let him in.

"Hey you, what are you doing here?" Peyton asked very surprised

"I need your help. When we first got together you would say I was a fairly good guy right?" Nathan said nervously

"Yeah great...but like I said Nathan you never stopped being a good..." Peyton was cut off by Nathan

"So what changed Peyton? Why did I change? I was talking to Tim today and he"

"Wait, you was talking to Tim about relationships? that's your first mistake(smirks)"

"No really Peyton What if I turn into that Nathan again. Once I get too comfortable" Nathan said plopping himself on her bed

"That's ridiculous...um Nathan hope this doesn't come out rude but why'd you come to me for advice? and why are you freaking out over nothing?" Peyton asked confused

"I don't know...Besides Haley there aren't much girls I could go to about this stuff... And Me and Haley.. I mean Haley and I... sort of exchanged the big three words..." Nathan said kind of avoiding eye contact. Nathan was waiting for a response but Peyton sort of logged out... she slumped down and didn't say anything. Until she looked up at Nathan and she snapped back into the world.
