A/N: Thanks again for all the support! Keep those comments coming… Let me know if my story starts to get boring. And oh! The whole sad thing is coming, I just thought I'd tell you coz I know the first few chapters we're really happy.
Chapter 3
Every little thing….
It's been two weeks since they started dating. It's also been two weeks since they both confessed their feelings for each other. Surprisingly everyone seemed okay with it, most people weren't even shocked. The only problem they did encounter was Brooke.
"So Luke are you and Brooke talking now?" Peyton asked thinking that her best friend and Luke had patched up already.
"Yeah, but its kinda different now. She seems aloof and not as cheerful around me as she used to be" Trying to smile but cant because it truly was sad the way his relationship with Brooke ended
"Well, you cant really blame her. She really loved you Luke."
"I know that but there was nothing I could do, I really love Haley. I'll fight for her."
As if knowing that she was the topic of their conversation Haley waved from afar. She just came out of the library and was on her way to join Lucas for lunch.
"Hi Peyton!" she smiled happy to see her friend. It was a bit of a struggle but she finally bridged the social gap between Peyton and her.
"Hello Nerd! So are we still on tonight? I really need to shop for some clothes"
"Of course."
"So hey, I gotta go. Jake's waiting for me at our table" Peyton looked to the table where Jake was sitting and smiled at him when she caught his eye.
Still watching as Peyton walk towards Jake, Haley felt a hand tugging hers.
"I am here you know. I can see you looking at Jake"
"Oh stop! I wasn't looking at Jake I was looking at Peyton. She seems really happy" she answered, smiling that Luke was a bit jealous. She knows that she should assure him that he's the only one but then again she liked Luke's possessiveness towards her.
"Yeah she is happy, but why are you still looking at them. Don't you even want to look at me?" pretending to be hurt, Luke pouted like a 5 year old boy.
Turning to face her boyfriend, Haley took Lucas face in her hands and gave him a quick peck on the lips.
"There! Now stop pouting." She ordered.
"That's all I get? Come on Hales, kiss me again"
"We're in school Luke! Its weird, some of our teachers might see us!"
"Its okay you know. Everyone knows we're together" He was wondering why Haley was still uncomfortable showing affection towards him especially at school when he felt a pair of blue eyes looking at their direction.
"Are you still tutoring Nathan?"
"You know the answer to that Luke." Haley was afraid that Luke may have found out why she was uneasy being seen kissing him. She knew Nathan had feelings for her she doesn't want to add to his pain by seeing her show affection to Luke in front of him.
"I'm sorry; I'm sounding like a jealous love struck fool to you now, don't I?" A little embarrassed about bringing Nathan up, Luke started eating his lunch.
"A bit, but you have no reason to feel that way honey. I love you."
"I love you too. Now eat your lunch I don't want you to go starving the whole day." He sounded so stern that Haley laughed out loud causing almost half the student body eating their lunch
"That was embarrassing" Haley looked down, blushing.
"Yeah it was, I can't believe I'm dating you Haley James"
Smacking him in the head she turned and started to eat her food too.
"Hey that hurt!"
"I'm not talking to you so just shut up and eat"
Glancing at her, Lucas wanted to see if she was really mad at him. He knew she was so he decided to do what she said. Subtly glancing at her many times Lucas began forming a plan as to how to ask Haley's forgiveness.
Haley stood up and said "I'm going to class now"
Mentally kicking himself Lucas knew that he wasn't a very good boyfriend that day so he got up and walked towards Peyton and Jake
"Guys, I need your help"
After 3 hours….
"Hi Haley"
"Hi Nathan" she greeted noticing that Nathan's eyes seemed to have lost the glimmer it once held.
"I got an A in my English paper. Mr. Johnson returned it and told me that I was improving"
"You are Nate. Can you wait a sec I just need to get something from my locker"
"Okay, I'll walk with you"
Opening her locker Haley squealed at sudden rush of white, pink and red things.
"What the…What are these things?" Picking up some of the colored materials in her clothes she realized what the things were. "Their rose petals" Feeling some of the velvety softness of it in her hands she looked inside her locker to see a bear occupying almost all the space in it. She took the bear out and hugged it knowing who it came from.
"Lucas did it" Nathan said simply. "I'll wait for you in the tutoring center okay?"
She nodded her head in consent. Haley noticed a card and started to read it.
Haley,
I'm sorry, I know I was an ass during lunch period today. I'm really sorry honey. I hope my surprise made up for it. I love you!
Luke
Her phone rang and she took it out of her bag.
"Hello?"
"I love you"
"Hi Lucas, I love you too. Thanks for the surprise" she felt herself smiling and hugging the bear tightly.
"Your welcome. Thank to you too" he answered.
"Why?" puzzled Haley started taking her lecture notes inside her locker and putting it in her bag
"Because you love me, because you're my best friend, because right now the world could end if God wanted it to and I won't care coz I know you're my girl"
"Oh Luke!" not knowing what t say she closed her eyes and offered a silent prayer of thanks to God.
"Well, I gotta go Hales. I'll be in rivercourt if you need me. After your shopping with Peyton can you come by my house?"
"As if you needed to ask."
"Good,bye Hales. I love you"
"Bye,Luke. I love you too….so much!"
Sighing, Haley happily started walking towards the center singing
Every little thing he does is magic
Every thing he does just turns me on
Even though my life before was tragic
Now I know my love for him goes on
