Chapter 28

Haley looked behind her as Brooke dragged her away from Nate, and mouthed "I love you" to him he did the same in return and winked at her.

When they got to the other side of the café Haley yelled at Brooke,

"What the hell?"

"You did it!"

"Thats none of your business Brookie! And would you shut up Nate's mom is at the damn counter you idiot, and how the hell did you even know?" Haley was just pretending to be really pissed

"Your glowing bestest friend. So spill the details!" Peyt said

"Hmm, seems to me I'm not the only one glowing, Miss Sawyer" was Haley's reply

"Well if you weren't so busy getting it on and you had been on time you woulda heard me tell Brookie all about, now you have to wait til after you dish" Peyton replied giggling. And so the girls started their gossip.

Meanwhile at the booth w/ th boys

"Well lil bro, you look a little less frustrated this evening." Luke said

"Huh, what?" was Nate's reply, he hadn't been paying attention - but watching Haley laugh with her friends.

"So how was it?" Jake asked playing along

"Huh, how was what?"

"Dude come down from cloud nine and join us here in reality. We're tryin to have a conversation with you." Luke said

"Sorry guys. God, she drives me crazy"

"So you didn't get any then?" Jake asked, stringing Nate along

"What! I'm not telling you guys shit, Haley would be pised at me."

"Bro, what the hell do think the girls are over there talking about."

"What! They dragged Haley off before we even sat down, how could they possibly know?"

"Brooke has like a sixth sense about knowing when people have had sex, especially when its for the first time" Luke replied

"Luke would you shut up, Haley doesn't know"

"Haley doesn't know what?" Haley said as the girls approached the boys

O hit Nate thought

"O nothin babe, I'll tell you later." he tried

"You ashole, after what we just did your gonna keep secrets from me! Thats just f uckin wonderful." Haley said as she turned on her heal with Nate close behind her.

When he finally caught up to her he grabbed her elbow and pulled her around to face him, before he could say anything she started screaming at him through her tears to let her go and what an as he is, then she started pounding his chest with her fist. So he did the only thing he could do, he pulled her into a tight embrace.

"Shhh, Hales. Its nothing like your thinking."

But she just kept sobbing so he guided her to the car put her in and sped back to his house, when they got there he had to carry in the house, she was so tired from the events of ealier in the afternoon, that fighting with Nate pushed her into exhaustion and she fell asleep in the car. She just began to rise as he laced her on the bed. She opened her eyes, looked at him, then rolled over and burried her head in a pillow. He tried with no luck to get her to look at him, so he got up rolled her over and then sat on her hips.

"Leave me alone"

"No, you have to listen to me Hales."

"No, I don't. And don't call me that."

"Why not, you know I love you."

"Do I? Because I don't keep secrets from you Nate. You didn't just give me your virginity just to find out that I was keeping things from you!"

"Yes I did" he whispered, somewhat ashamed

"What? What are you talking about?"

" You did just give me you virginity, and yes I should have told you, but I gave you mine to Haley J. You were my first and I hope you're my last."

Haley started a whole new batch of tears

"Aww don't cry baby. I'm sorry"

"Why didn't you just tell me?"

"I didn't want you to be nervous, well anymore than you already were and I figured if you new we were both virgins then you would feel less comfortable"

"I'm sorry I over reacted"

"No I'm sorry I didn't tell you"

"I'm kinda glad you didn't though. I was really nervous, but you made it wonderful."

"Well you didn't seem too nervous, if that makes you feel better."

"Ya, it does. I love you baby"

"I love you too"
