A/n: Hey guys! Thanks for all the comments! This is a continuation of the 2nd Chapter still entitled Sunday Morning (coz I just love this song!)

Keep the comments coming coz I wanna know if anyone is reading this….

"Excuse me? I think I just heard you say…."

"Yes, I kept thinking about you" a little unsure of what this little piece of information would do to their friendship Luke continued by saying

"I felt guilty and I had this feeling in my stomach that everything was wrong. Then there was this song that played in the background saying something like no matter how darkness overcomes my life I'll always have this someone in my life"

"Ha! The things you hear inside Brooke's bedroom… she really must have an effect on you" she said a little smile tugging along the corners of her mouth.

She felt relieved right that moment; certain calm had come over her though she didn't know why. Though she was still a bit confused about all the things Luke said she expectantly looked at him.

"Hey be kind, it was sung by Maroon 5 you know. Anyway stop it. Is that all you can say? Aren't shocked? Aren't you even gonna ask me why I felt that way?" he asked, his aggravation very apparent.

"Why do you think you felt that way Luke? Do you really want me to tell you what I THINK you feel?" Haley felt powerful because she knew exactly what Luke was feeling. It was the same feeling she had a month ago when Nathan kissed her during one of their tutoring sessions.

"No! I just want your opinion Hales you gotta help me out"

Haley observed him for a minute trying hard not to laugh at her friend's dilemma. She's happy about the possibility that Luke might be in love with her too but wants him to realize it on his own.

"I think you're just confused."

It was Luke's turn to observe Haley searching her eyes if that is indeed what she thought. Unfortunately her eyes didn't even give a hint of what was really inside her head. Giving up a losing battle he decided to tell her what he really was thinking. Damn all the consequences.

"I'm not confused. For the first time in my life I know what I want. What I really need."

"What do you need Luke?" she asked hope glimmering in her eyes.

Kneeling in front of her, Lucas took her hands and kissed the inside of her palm. He held her hand to his face enjoy it's comforting warmth.

"It's not what I need Hales. It's who…."

"Who?" she whispered her voice barely audible

"You. You're all I need. Now my question is, do you need me?"

Tears fell down her eyes, unstoppable. She knew she had so much to say to him. She knew she held back too many things, too many thoughts and feelings. In the end all she could say was…..

"Yes"

But things just get so crazy living life gets hard to do
And I would gladly hit the road get up and go if I knew
That someday it would bring me back to you
That someday it would bring me back to you

That may be all I need
In darkness she is all I see
