"Nathan!" Haley yelled down the hallway hoping to get her husband's attention. He had avoided her all day and now that school was over she was hoping to catch Nathan before he went to practice. The look on his face told Haley he wouldn't be her husband for too long. He walked into an empty classroom and motioned for her to follow him.

"Look Haley, I want a divorce." Nathan said bluntly. 'No point in beating around the bush as Brooke would say' Nathan thought. 'Geez, when was the last time that I hung out with Brooke?' Nathan couldn't remember.

"Nathan, I messed up, I know that, and I'm sorry okay. But don't you think that getting a divorce is a little extreme?" Haley asked. She really wanted this marriage to work.

"No I don't. Look Haley it's not that you cheated on me with my brother, but we're in high school. We're too young." Nathan said, wishing he had said these words sooner, like before they got married.

"That's not true. We could make this work!" She really wanted it to work.

"No we couldn't. Marriage is about commitment. We both need to see other people before we can decide if we wanna be with each other for, well forever." Nathan said with a new found maturity.

Haley just starred at him for a while before breaking out into a smile. "Who knew Nathan Scott would be the one to tutor me in life lessons."

Nathan didn't smile. She cheated on him, and it hurt. It hurt a lot. But he wouldn't be like Brooke. He wouldn't try to make her feel bad. In fact he would try and never talk to her again. If he did have to talk to her, he would be civil. That was it.

"Who knew?" Nathan said echoing Haley.

"Knew what?" Brooke said, just barely avoiding Nathan as he practically knocked her over trying to exit a classroom.

"What? Nothing. Brooke!!!" Nathan said engulfing her in a hug. He spun he around a couple times and when he let her go he had a huge goofy smile on his face.

"What the hell has gotten into you Scott?" Brooke asked with a smile. She hadn't seen him this way in a long long time.

"Nothing. How have you been." He asked slinging his arm around her shoulder.

"You sure you should be doing that?" Brooke asked looking at Nathan's arm on her shoulder. "Haley might get mad." Brooke said with a smirk.

"Umm, actually me and Haley broke up." Nathan said remembering that Brooke did not know about the marriage.

"Oh Nate, I'm so sorry. Why? I mean you guys were so good together." Brooke said curiously.

"She cheated on my with Lucas." Nathan said looking at the ground.

Brooke just stood there with her mouth open. Tutor Girl cheated on Nathan? With Lucas no less! "Man Lucas really needs to start finding girls that are single, when he too is single." Brooke said with a shake of the head.

"Hey it wasn't Lucas' fault. He turned her down and she still went for it. I saw the whole thing." Nathan said with a sigh. He hated thinking about it.

"You know what you need Mr. Scott?" Brooke asked with a smile. She felt bad that she had made him go from happy to sad so fast. "A night out with the girls."

"Brooke" Nathan groaned. He should have known that was coming. "I don't wanna, I just wanna stay home."

"What and mope? I don't think so Nate. You are hot, young, and best of all single! We are going out whether you like it or not. It'll be just like old times." Brooke said with a smile.

She had missed the times when her, Peyton, and Nathan would all go out to a bar together. This was of course when they were all single. It was just more fun that way.

Nathan smiled. He had missed the old times too. It was time to forget about Haley and move on. "I'll pick you and Peyton up at 8. Make sure she's at your house." Nathan said.

"Done." Brooke said with a smirk. "See you then Scott."

"So how did it go today?" Lucas asked as Nathan walked into the locker room for practice.

"Good. I told Haley and I got a date." Nathan said with a smirk.

"A date?" Lucas asked as his head shot up.

Nathan laughed. "It's not what you think. It's a girls night out." Nathan laughed harder at Lucas' even more confused expression.

"Before Peyton and I started going out, her, Brooke, and I would go out to bars and um, have fun." Nathan said, not sure how to put it.

Lucas rasied an eyebrow and smiled, but didn't say anything.

"What?" Nathan asked defensive.

"What? I didn't say anything did I?" Lucas said with a smirk.

"Man, shut up." Nathan said shoving Lucas, while rolling his eyes. Lucas just laughed and walked out to the gym.

'What does he know.' Nathan thought.
