Don't own One Tree Hill (if I did would I really just be writing this?)
"Lucas honey wake up." Karen said as she gently nudged her sleeping son on the couch.
"Mom….where's Hales?" a groggy Luke asked when he realized Haley was not in his arms where they had fallen asleep last night.
"Honey what are you talking about? Haley wasn't here last night. You fell asleep around 10:30 last night. You must have dreamed something." Karen explained eyeing her son with a worried look.
"No, it couldn't be a dream she was here. She knew everything, and she stayed. She stayed with me mom, she said she wasn't leaving me no matter what. It couldn't have been a dream."
"I'm sorry honey, listen why don't you go get cleaned up. Nathan is here, he brought all of your things from Dan's house." She said as Lucas rose and headed to the bathroom in a daze.
"He'll be out in a minute Nathan. Would you like something to eat or drink?" Karen asked as she entered the kitchen where Nathan sat waiting.
"No that's alright I'm fine. Is he okay? He seems kind of out of it." Nathan asked worried.
"He had a dream about Haley finding out about his condition. I guess it freaked him out when he found out it was just a dream."
"Oh, well see she did find out last night. She figured it out on her own and I just couldn't lie to her. She left to go find him at like 6 but she never came back. I figured that she was here."
"Oh my gosh I had no idea I thought that he dreamed it. Where is she now? She wasn't here when I came home at 11 last night. Did something happen?"
"I don't know. I tried to call her cell phone a couple times last night and this morning but she isn't answering. I checked the river court before I went to pick up Luke's stuff this morning. I have no idea where she could be. I'm scared something happened."
"Hey Nate thanks for getting my stuff." Lucas said as he walked into the kitchen with his hair still damp from his shower.
"No problem Luke. Have you seen Haley at all? I haven't seen her at all this morning." Nathan replied as Luke sunk down into his chair at Haley's name.
"No man. I haven't seen lately. I mean I thought I did but I guess it was just a dream." He said his face full of sorrow.
"Dude it wasn't a dream. She was here, I just don't know where she is now."
"Wait she was here! Man I have to go!" Luke yelled as he jumped up and ran into his room. 'Come on where is it? I know it's here. I need it.' Lucas thought as he rummaged through his old dresser. Once he found the box he was looking for he ran out of the house yelling a good bye to his mother and to Nathan who sat there with shocked looks on their faces.
"Hales are you up here?" Luke asked as he opened the door to his mother's café roof. Seeing her wrapped up in a blanket lying on the ground staring up to the sky.
"Hey Luke." Haley said as Luke came to sit down next to her.
"So last night did you mean what you said about how you love me? Because I want you to know that I meant that as more as a friend. I want to be with you Hales. I love you so much I couldn't go on if you were gone." Luke said softly as if he said it any louder everything would come crumbling down.
"Of course I did Luke. I've always loved you. I want us to be everything we can be and more. I'm never leaving you it would kill me to much to leave." She replied as she rolled onto her side to look him straight in the face.
"Good." He replied as he put a small box in front of her.
"I just got divorced yesterday and you're already proposing!" she laughed as she took the box to open it.
"No I'm not proposing, well at least not yet. It's a promise ring. It's to prove that I'll love you forever and never lie to you again." He replied as she opened it to reveal a simple gold band holding a group of little diamonds in the shape of a heart.
"It's beautiful Luke." Was all that she could get out as she took it out and slipped it onto her left ring finger. 'This guy's amazing' she thought as tears started to form in her eyes.
A/N; Still not done! I've got a few things up my sleeve!.
