After work, Haley goes up and goes straight up to her room. Her parents called her for dinner but she didn't feel like eating. She just lay on her bed, staring at the ceiling, realizing the fact that she may have just lost her best friend. She remembered when her and Lucas were young, they would get in fights over stupid little things, and then make up again the next day. She had a strong feeling that this time was different. Haley sat up and looked at her calendar on her desk beside her bed. Lucas's birthday was in three days. Suddenly it hit her. "I'll have a surprise birthday party for Lucas to make it up to him," she said. Right away she started planning. She called Nathan and asked if they could have it at his parent's beach house. He wasn't too thrilled about the idea, especially considering the party was for Lucas, but he agreed for Haley's sake. Haley made a list of guests to invite, and started phoning everyone. Then she phoned Peyton and asked if she would be in charge of the music since she has such a wide collection, and she agreed. Nathan volunteered to buy the snacks and drinks, so that left Haley in charge of the rest. She went out and rented movies and bought balloons and streamers. She was sure that the party was going to be great and that Lucas would love it.
