Chapter14

it had been about a month since Nathan and Haley have gotten engaged and everything was going fine. Well almost everything anyway. It was now time for the trial and Haley was really nervous. Everyone was going to go to support Haley. They all got to there and everything was all ready. The judge came out and Nathan realized that they were in trouble.

"Oh no." Nathan whispered.

"What's wrong?" Peyton asked since she was sitting next to him and heard what he said,

"My dad is really good friends with the judge, he might have done something to be able to found innocent."

"That's not good. And knowing your dad."

"My thoughts exactly."

"I would like to call my first witness to the stand, Brook Davis." Haley's lawyer said. "So Brook can you tell me what happened when you got to the James' house?"

"Well Peyton and I were walking up to Haley's and when we got to the door the door was open and Haley was on the floor and Dan was about to kick her in the stomach. And then I yelled and Peyton called 911 and then Nathan ran downstairs and pushed Dan out of the way and Dan ran."

"Is that all that happened?"

"Yes sir."

"Thank you."

Dan's lawyer cross examined her then Haley went up to the stand.

"So Haley can you tell the court room what happened they day that Mr. Scott attacked you."

"Well Nathan had just come over and told me that he was moving and I was crying so Nate and I were talking and then there was a knock at the door and we saw that it was Dan and Nathan said that he had to go to Tim's house so to tell Dan that he was over Tim's so I went downstairs and answered the door and Dan asked if Nate was there and I told him that he was at Tim's and he said that he knew that Nathan was there and then after I told him again that he wasn't he punched me and that's all I remember. The next thing I knew I was at the hospital and I was asking Nate what happened and if the baby was ok."

"Baby?"

"Yes I had just found out that I was pregnant and Dan was mad about that."

"Thank you Haley. I have know more questions."

Haley was then cross examined and the rest of the trial went on.

"I have reached a decision." the judge said after a 30 minute break. "I found Daniel Scott innocent of all charges."

Haley said nothing she just sat there silently and started to cry.

"Hales." Nathan said. Haley stood up and walked over to where he was. He pulled her into his arms and let her cry onto his shoulder. "Sh Hales everything is going to be ok." they stood there like that for a couple of minutes until Nate broke the silence.

"Hales come on lets get you home so you can rest." They then walked out of the court room and Nathan brought Haley back to her house. They went up to her room and fell asleep in each others arms, both fearing what was to come.
