Chapter 8
Haley closed the door to her apartment and just smiled. Tonight was so amazing to her. She kissed the guy that she had been obsessing over for nearly a week. The best part of it was that she left him totally speechless. Haley felt like she could just float away. She was so happy.
"Oh Max! Isn't he amazing? And I owe all to you my lovely, amazing, beautiful, intelligent dog." Haley leaped over to where Max was and knelt down beside him and grabbed his face so she can look into his eyes. "Max, I want you to promise me something...Promise me that you will knock up a nice young female so you can make amazing puppies who are just like their daddy. The world needs more dogs like you. Will you promise me that, Max?"
Max just made a face at her and Haley took what she could get. Nothing could break her mood, right now
"Well my wonderful dog, I'm going to bed, I hope you have amazing little dog dreams." With that Haley exited the living room and went into the bedroom leaving Max to just stare at her now vacant spot.
"So, Brooke how was your walk on the beach with Jake the other night?"
"OH MY GOD!! Haley , he is so amazing, he's nice and funny and God is he sexy!!"
"I am so Happy for you, he really seems like a nice guy."
"Yah, he is, I think this one might stick around for awhile. So tell me, how'd your time alone go with Nathan."
Haley sighed over the phone. One of those sighs that made the other person know that they had gone into a whole another world. The kind of sigh where you can tell that they were day dreaming, about something totally wonderful. "Brooke, I can't even explain it!!"
"OH MY GOD! You slept with him!!!"
"NOO!!!!NOT AT ALL!!! We just... kissed!"
"I need details lady, don't leave anything out."
"It was just I don't know, he walked me home and we said our good byes and I don't know, something just came over me and I just had to kiss him. Brooke, he is such a good kisser."
"Wait hold on! You made the first move?"
"Yah, it just felt right. I mean you should have heard what he told me at his place. It was so sweet." Haley said
"So are you going to tell me or do I have to guess?"
"He was just saying about how maybe what we have is fate, ya know, like how we've been bumping into each other lately. He just really seemed genuine about being together."
"So are you guys going to go out or something?"
"Yah he said, he'd call me."
"Well good, hey maybe we could like double date or something, Oh Haley this is going to be so much fun. I mean how great is this. We both got two great guys."
"Yah we do." Haley said with a smile on her face, thinking of all the possibilities of what could happen if everything went the way she would like.
Two Weeks later....
"Brooke, why hasn't he called?" Haley said almost in tears over the phone to Brooke.
"I don't know sweetie, maybe he lost your number ."
"yah, that's it, he lost my number that's all. Maybe I should go find him and make sure."
"NO!!" Brooke said trying to make sure that Haley didn't do anything that she would regret later. "If it's meant to be, he will find you. Let him make the next move."
"I don't know Brooke, I just don't understand. I mean I thought we connected. He said that it was fate. I mean how could he could kiss me like he kissed me and not want to call me. Oh God, what if I went to fast? Maybe he thought I was just some slut who was looking to get laid or something or maybe he thought-"
"Haley, stop it! The guy is a jerk, just leave it at that. He obviously doesn't deserve you. Now what are we doing this weekend?"
"We're going to Lucas' wedding."
"Ok and what are we going to do at that wedding?"
"we are going to show Lucas that he has not broken me."
"and..."
"we're going to look for a new guy."
"And..."
"We're going to forget about Nathan because he is obviously a jackass just like Lucas"
"That's my girl! Now what do you plan on wearing to this wedding?" Brooke said with a smirk suddenly appearing on her face.
"I don't know yet."
"Well we can't have that, Now can we? So get ready girl, we're heading to the mall."
