Summary: Haley has trouble over which brother to choose to stand by.
Nathan woke up the next morning slightly anxious about the test he was to sit in English. He wanted to make Haley proud of him. Nathan decided to go over the notes Haley gave him so it would be fresh in his mind before first period English. He sat in his car looking over the sheets of English. 'Her handwriting was so perfect', Nathan just sat looking at the paper but he wasn't reading it he was just staring at Haley's handwriting.
Lucas walked into his English class still reeling from his fight with Haley yesterday. 'Anybody but her' Luke thought to himself. Lucas was in the class alone going over his notes for the test that day when Nathan came walking in and taking the desk nearest the window. Nathan was just ignoring Lucas as he tried to cram everything in his head. "Why did you have to screw with me and Haley man? She's not even talking to me because of you." Lucas said trying not to lunge at his little brother and beat the shit out of him. "She's not talking to you because you are being a jerk... wait Haley is talking to you. It's you that's not talking to her. So stop trying to put the whole thing on her." Nathan spit out while glairing at his 'big brother'.
In the five minutes until the teacher appeared in the classroom, the two boys hadn't said another word to each other. They just watched as the rest of the class filed in. "Ok. You have a half hour to complete the test so read over the questions before you begin... which is now." Mrs. Doherty stated after looking at her watch. Nathan turned over the paper that was on his desk and read over the questions. Not because the teacher had suggested it, he had done it because Haley told him to. As soon as he finished looking the questions over he started writing and he didn't stop until the teacher told them to put down their pens.
Haley waited outside Nathan's class nervously. She had wanted to see how his test went but mostly she just wanted to see him. She knew it was stupid of her because Lucas, more than likely would see her and start yelling and screaming again. Or worse maybe he would not say anything to her at all. Haley could handle being yelled at but she couldn't handle the silent treatment. Not from Luke. Haley could hear the shuffle of chairs from inside and first to come out was Nathan. She didn't know if that was a good sign or a bad one. "Well?" she asked apprehensively. Nathan looked at the small brunette in front of him. "It went fine". "Fine. How fine? Good fine? Bad fine?" Haley said when she didn't get a real answer. "Just fine... I don't want to jinx anything." Haley looked at Nathan then smiled. "Scott, since when are you superstitious". Nathan rolled his eyes at her. He loved when she called him by his surname. "Well, James, now is as good a time as any." The two teenager's laughter was interrupted by Lucas. "Hey can I talk to you.... Alone?" Haley just looked up at him and nodded. She looked at Nathan and smiled. "I'll see you at three at the tutoring centre?" "Yeah and thanks Hales." With that Nathan turned on his heals and left leaving her with a pissed off Luke. Haley looked at Lucas and she could see what he was asking her. "Yes, I'm still tutoring him". 'This was going to be a long conversation.' Haley thought as she saw the anger build up in her friends eyes.
I know I said it would be longer but I'm kinda having a writers block. So tell me your thoughts on what should happen. You know the drill. R&R please.
