Nathan walked into the library where he had Study Hall, he saw Haley sitting there reading a textbook and taking note. He smiled and then came up behind her and hugged her from behind.

"Hey," he whispered in her ear, "What are you doing?"

"Studying," Haley said quickly, "Um, what are you doing?"

"Watching you study," Nathan said grinning. Haley laughed nervously, Nathan noticed how nervous and uncomfortable she was around him, "Is something wrong Hales, you're not acting like yourself."

"I have to tell you something." Haley said closing her textbook and tapping her pencil on the table, "Well," she said still tapping her pencil, "This is really hard to say..."

Nathan took the pencil out of Haley's hands and put her hands in his, "Haley, you can tell me anything I will still love you."

"I don't think you will after what I tell you," Haley muttered. Nathan looked confused and lessened his grip on Haley's hands. "Nathan, the other night I went to a club with Peyton and I got really drunk and I met this guy there, and we started kissing and stuff, and then the last thing I know he's on top of me and we're having sex." Haley explained as Nathan took his hands away from hers. His eyes were watering and she knew she had hurt him.

"How the hell could you do this to me?" Nathan said angrily raising his voice to Haley. He got up and started to leave, Haley chased after him.

"It was a mistake." Haley said with a pleading look on her face.

"So was this," Nathan said referring to him and Haley's relationship, and with that he walked out of the library leaving Haley standing there shocked and upset. As Nathan was walking down the halls he saw Peyton, she could tell that something had happened.

"Are you okay?" Peyton asked Nathan.

Nathan glared at her, "Yeah I'm fine I just found out my virgin girlfriend got drunk and had sex with some kid who she doesn't even know because her so called friend got her drunk."

"I was drunk too! I was thinking straight Nate," Peyton said trying to defend herself.

"Where was Brooke during this?" Nathan asked.

Peyton sighed, "Brooke didn't come she was sick, she came and picked us up and got Haley away from the guy."

"You know Peyton I'd expect this kind of shit from Brooke but never from you. I guess I was wrong." Nathan said and then walked away.

Peyton went to say something, but decided to stop herself before she got herself into more shit with Nathan. She looked into the library window and saw Haley sitting at the table with her head in her hands crying. Peyton felt horrible but she knew she couldn't say anything or do anything to help. She decided to ditch the rest of her classes and go home and draw.

Nathan was walking in the halls deciding whether or not to ditch or not, but if he did he would miss the game tonight and his dad would get pissed and that was the last thing he needed. As he was walking he wasn't paying attention and ran right into Brooke.

"Whoa there," Brooke said running into Nathan's chest, "Watch where you're going there Scott."

"Sorry," he mumbled.

"Did Haley tell you what happened?" Brooke said hoping that Haley had already said something. She sat on a seat in the hallway and Nathan sat next to her.

"Yeah," Nathan said wiping his eyes, "I can't believe she did this to me."

Brooke sighed, "It sucks."

"Yeah it does, now I know how you felt when Lucas went behind your back with Peyton." Nathan said.

"Can we not talk about that?" Brooke said feeling uncomfortable.

"Sorry," Nathan said he then changed the subject back to Haley, "What should I do about Haley?"

"As much as I want to be a friend to her and tell you to give her another chance, I don't believe she deserves another chance. I mean, you two were in love and she then went behind your back and did this, she was drunk but that being drunk isn't an excuse...Believe me I know." Brooke said with a little laugh.

"Wow, you're a great friend," Nathan said sarcastically.

Brooke smiled, "I try...Listen, you know what I mean. If I were you I wouldn't give her another chance, but I'm not you so you're going to have to decide this on your own." Brooke patted Nathan's head, "I'm sure you'll make the right decision."

"Yeah..." Nathan said, "Well I'm going to get to class, I don't want to not be able to play tonight." Nathan said getting up from where he was sitting. He reached out his hands for a hug.

Brooke looked at him confused, "You want a hug from me?"

"Yeah, you helped me out," Nathan stepped closer towards her, "Come on I won't bite."

Brooke laughed, she gave him a hug and maybe she held on a little longer than necessary, but the boy was gorgeous and he smelled good, "Talk to you later friend." Brooke said smiling and walking away. Nathan laughed and walked the opposite way of Brooke thinking about the hug.

Peyton had watched the whole time, and noticed the hug and how it seemed like they were more than just friends, "What was that?" Peyton asked Brooke as Brooke got closer to her.

"We're friends, and I was talking to him about the Haley thing." Brooke said, Peyton gave her a look, "I swear we're just friends."

Peyton sighed but couldn't help but laugh, "Be careful."

"What? He's single baby!" Brooke squealed laughing.

Peyton rolled her eyes, "Whatever, don't let Haley find out about your little crush."

"It isn't a crush; I just think he's hot and totally do-able." Brooke said laughing.

Peyton pushed Brooke, "Lord girl you're going to get into some major trouble."
