Haley and Nathan wake up Christmas day exciting for what the day is going to bring, not only their gifts for each other but they get to see all their old friends from highschool. The two of them didn't get home till late from Deb's house. They had such a good time there, celebrating Christmas and all the fun they always had. Like usual Deb broke out the stories of Nathan as a child, and also of Nathan and Haley when they were first married or dating.
Haley wakes up and sees that Nathan is still asleep, in a deep sleep with a smile on his face. Haley decides that she is going to go for a run on the beach. She gets dressed and heads outside, all these memories come flooding back to her, the time when she and Nathan got married, and the many times her and her friends spent at both the beach house and also the beach during all those summers of highschool. Haley runs along the beach for awhile and then turns around, as she is heading back to the house she notices that Nathan is standing outside on the porch looking out onto the water. "hey babe, what are you doing?"
Nathan turns around hearing Haley's voice, "Not much just remembering some good times we have had here."
"Me too, I was remember one specific time especially, our wedding. I still remember it like it was yesterday."
Haley and Nathan head inside and eat breakfast. "Maybe it is time we open gifts," Nathan said with a big smile on his face.
"Your just like a kid in a candy store Nathan"
"But you still love me"
Haley and Nathan make their way over to the tree where the presents are located. Nathan decides that he wants Haley to open her gift first. Haley finds her name on a small box. She picks up the box and slowly starts to unwrap the gift. Once is it unwrapped she noticed the box was a robin egg blue. Haley started laughing. "I know where this is from!"
"Yes I know, I succumbed and visited Tiffany's but hey, it is Christmas, and I wanted to go all out for my wife."
Haley opens the box and finds a small ring box. Inside the box is a gorgeous diamond ring. Haley looks at Nathan for an explanation.
"I figured that since when we got married the first time we were really young and didn't have any money to afford a wedding ring, let alone an engagement ring, I would buy you a nice big one now that we do have the money."
Haley is touched beyond words. "Nate, that was so sweet. I am still going to wear my wedding band, but I will also wear this new diamond ring as an engagement ring, how about that?
"Sounds perfect" Nathan was excited that his present made Haley so happy. "Can I open my present now?"
"Yes" Haley goes and gets the gift from under the tree for Nathan. The box is a big box, almost like a clothing box. Nathan has no idea what to expect. He finally unwraps the gift just as a kid would and opens the box. Inside he sees a baby onesie and a rattle.
"Hales what is this?"
"Well I wanted to make it a surprise and I figured this was the best way to tell you. I am pregnant"
Haley waits for Nathan's reaction unsure of how he is going to react. They hadn't talked about having kids a ton, and Haley knew Nathan's relationship with his father and how he was afraid of becoming his father. All of a sudden a big smile spread across Nathan's face.
"Im going to become a father?"
"Yes, are you happy?"
"Of course I am happy, I am excited to be having a baby with you. Now we can tell everyone the good news tonight. Well I guess we should call my mom and your mom and tell them."
Haley gets a smirk on her face "Babe, I already told them, I couldn't keep it a secret."
Nathan starts to laugh, he should have known, his wife can never keep a secret. "I am surprised you lasted this long without telling me."
"I got tempted but I knew this would make a perfect Christmas gift. Thank you so much for my Christmas gift, I will wear it every day"
Haley and Nathan share a long romantic kiss and a long hug, before they decided that they needed to take a shower and get ready for their friends coming over. Everyone was due to arrive in a few hours and Haley needed to go shopping and buy food for everyone coming over, she had a feeling there would be tons of drinking and eat.
