Haley sat on the floor with Nathan in her arms for a long time before she let go. She was shocked that she had caused him this pain that he needed to hurt himself. "Nathan, why?" she whispered near his ear. Nathan looked at her with sad eyes and said what he needed to, "I couldn't take the fact that you were going to leave me. Haley, my heart felt like it was being torn in pieces. I really thought I could deal with the pain and then when the reality hit that you might not be coming back I needed to get rid of what I was feeling. I didn't have any clue where to put the pain, and you were mad at me. What was I supposed to do just call you out of nowhere? I also wanted to say I'm sorry for what I did to you in the café. I didn't mean to freak out on you like that. That's the biggest mistake I could've made because you're hurting too." She smiled at him sadly and pulled him back into her arms. "Nathan, I'm so sorry. You know I would do anything to stay here." He nodded his head and pulled back. "Haley, I need help," he said looking her straight in the eye. "I know, I know. But let's just enjoy the time we have today and I promise tomorrow I will do everything I can to make sure you're here when I get back." She smiled at him and he grinned back. They stood back up and Haley walked to the door. "Where are you goin?" he asked her suspiciously. "I think I owe you something before I leave," she said beaming. It was 1 AM and they were sneaking out into her car. "Where to?" he asked. "How about the car. We've got nowhere else to go," she looked at him. "Do you really want your first time to be in a car?" he asked her concerned. "No, I want it to be with you though."
They drove to the River Court and parked the car. They sat there for a few minutes and Haley was looking nervous. "Are you sure?" Nathan asked her sensing her nervousness. She nodded and leaned in to kiss him. He made the kiss deeper and they inched into the back seat. She slowly pulled his shirt over his head and he did the same for her. It was going to be their last night together and they were going to make it memorable.
Luke on the other hand hadn't seen Nathan leave. He walked down stairs to find his brother and he was nowhere to be found. He looked out the door and Haley's car was gone. He smiled a little because they made up. Then he cringed when he thought of what they were probably doing. He walked back upstairs to see Peyton sitting up looking around. "I was looking for you," she said. "I was helping Nathan and Haley make amends. I think they're doing that now," he said teasing. He climbed onto the bed and laid on top of her, careful not to hurt her. "I love you," he whispered in her ear. She shivered at his warm breath and pulled him in for a kiss. The kiss got out of control quickly and before they knew it they were lying in bed exhausted. "I love you too," she whispered back. He pulled his head up from the pillow and said, "let's get married." "What?!" she said looking very confused. "We'll get married. We'll do it tomorrow so Haley can be there. Why not? We'll renew our vows or something later so our parents can be there," he smiled like he was on top of the world. "I guess we could do that," she announced smiling back. She slowly started to drift off. He did the same while pulling her into his arms to protect her.
They were awaken by a small boy jumping on the bed. It was none other than little Nathan. "Hey buddy," Luke said slipping his boxers on. Peyton woke up too and saw Nathan jumping around happily. Luke grabbed the little boy and tackled him on the bed. Luke pulled him back into bed and laid down. "Daddy, you can't sweep on the sun," he yelled. "What?" he asked confused. "The sun is up. When the sun is up that means you cannot sweep." Lucas laughed at his son's reasoning. "Ok, then we will go downstairs and do something for mommy. How bout it?" he asked the smiling 3 year old. "Yea!" he shouted jumping off the bed. "Stay there," he said to his fiancee.
He went downstairs and found Nathan standing in the kitchen. "Daddy what are we doing?" "Well, I thought we'd make mommy some breakfast. Then we'll serve her in bed. Know why?" Nathan shook his head. Luke laughed and then tried to explain. "Well, today mommy's going to be a queen because me and mommy are going to get married." "What's mawwied?" "Married is like me and mommy being together forever. It's like a promise and you're not supposed to break it. I want to be with your mommy forever." Nathan looked at him still a little confused but understood the reasoning. "So, mommy is the queen and we make hew bweakfast?" Nathan said smiling. "What about us?" he asked his father. Luke smiled and said," we'll have breakfast in bed with mommy too. Would that make you happy?" Nathan nodded his head vigorously. "Ok, then we'll make breakfast and eat it too."
They made pancakes and brought them up to Peyton. "Thank you baby!" she said hugging Nathan. Luke gave a fake pout and she kissed him. They were all eating pancakes when they heard the door open. Nathan and Haley walked up to the bedroom smiling and holding hands. "I see you guys made up," Luke said looking at the two of them. "Yea, we're gonna try this long distance thing and see. I mean if we're meant to be we will be," Haley said optimistically. Nathan stood there eyeing the pancakes they were all eating and little Nathan noticed this. "Uncle Nathan we hab more pancakes," he said giggling. Nathan laughed too and ran downstairs. He came back up with two plates. One for Haley and one for himself. Nathan had about three helpings before he decided he was full. "Look, I'm gonna call the doctor and see if there's anything he can do," Nathan said going back downstairs. The adults all knew what he was talking about, but little Nathan was looking at his uncle. "Do you have a runny nose?" "No, I've got to...get my head checked because I'm getting a lot of headaches," he said lying to his nephew.
The doctor told him to come in at 2 PM and it was only 10:30 AM. Haley announced she would go with him but for now they were all just spending there last few hours with Haley. Peyton looked over to Luke and remembered they were to get married today. She whispered in his ear, "Luke, what are we gonna do about the wedding?" Luke just pointed to his watch and mouthed after to her. Nathan and Haley left at 1:30 and Peyton and Luke were getting ready. "Look Peyton I know this isn't how you pictured your wedding but we'll do it again. I just want Haley to be there and I hope you're ok with that." She smiled at her soon to be husband and kissed him. "I'm ok with it, but there's one thing you have to do for me." "And what would that be?" he asked smiling. "Promise me the wedding night isn't gonna be crap." He gave her his Scott smile and said, "Oh don't you worry. You married the right guy for that."
Haley and Nathan walked back in the house and saw little Nathan with a suit on. "Hey little guy! What are ya all dressed up for?" Nathan asked his little buddy. He looked at his uncle and ran back upstairs to announce his aunt and uncle's appearance. Luke and Peyton came back down all dressed up. They came with clothes in their hands and shoved the clothes to Haley and Nathan. "We're getting married before you leave, Haley. I wanted you to be there for this," Luke said hugging her. She felt the tears come to her eyes and she ran to the bathroom with Nathan. They came back down a few minutes later and they all left.
They arrived at the small chapel in Tree Hill. "Luke, this isn't what you guys wanted for your wedding," Haley said sadly. She didn't want to wreck their plans. "Haley, I also didn't want to get married without you there. Peyton and I decided we were going to do this so you could be there. Then later we'll get our vows renewed and have everyone there. We're gonna wait till you get back for that," he replied answering her question. They stepped up and Nathan gave Peyton away. Then he was Luke's best man. Little Nathan just stood near his mom and dad. They said their vows and little Nathan clapped the loudest as Luke picked him up. They all walked out of the chapel and drove to the café.
They walked in and everyone yelled "SURPRISE!" Luke and Peyton were surprised and Luke had to find out how his mom knew. She told her son that Haley called from the bathroom. "I was a little upset but then she called back and said you'd renew with everyone there. We thought you at least deserved a party and a first dance. You're choice of the music," she told Lucas. He looked at choices she had and out of the few he picked Everything I Do from Bryan Adams. Everyone cleared the floor and the music came on. Peyton looked a little surprised. Lucas came up behind her and then walked around and put his hands on her waist. She wrapped her hands around his neck and danced. "How did you pick this? I love it," she asked him smiling with tears in her eyes. "I remember you mentioning it awhile back." "You remembered that?" she asked with the tears flowing freely now. "I remember every second we spend together," he replied kissing her. Little Nathan was having a blast dancing with every girl in the room. He danced with Karen first then Deb. Haley came up and danced with him then Brooke. He even danced with Jenny. Jenny danced with most of the guys including her daddy. The second to last dance he walked up to his mom. "Mommy, can we dance?" he asked her. She smiled and tears came to her eyes again at how cute her son was. She picked him up and danced. Then Luke joined them for the last dance. It was the perfect wedding until it was time for Haley to go.
Everyone went to the airport with her and said their good byes. They started with Jake and Jenny. "Haley, I cannot believe you're leaving," Jake said. "I want you to come back as soon as you're done and we'll all be here waiting. I mean who knows maybe I'll even find someone by the time you get back and there'll be another wedding." She smiled and hugged him tightly then Jenny. Next was Brooke and Tim. They came up together even though they were having major problems in their relationship. "Tutor girl, I just cannot stand knowing you're not gonna be here. I like the name and I think I gonna miss calling you that. No, listen I know we haven't been the best of friends or anything but I'll miss ya and when you get back we'll go shopping or something," Brooke said hugging her. Haley now had tears in her eyes. Tim came up and she could tell he didn't know what to say. "Haley, we haven't really talked or anything, but I see what you've done to Nathan in these past few years. I hope I find someone like you to help me the way you did Nathan. I'll miss ya," he said hugging her. Next up was Deb. She came up with tears in her eyes already. "Haley, I will miss you so much. I had a blast with you at the café and I love you for loving Nathan. Look what's happened to him and without you he'd still be like his father. I'll miss having you around so much and I know Nathan will." She hugged Haley tightly and Keith and Karen came up. Karen looked very upset and Keith was trying to help. "Haley I'll miss you. We'll all be here when you get back and I hope you hurry up with college," Keith said sadly. Karen came up and said, "Haley, when are you coming back? I don't think we'll manage without you around here, but I know I'll throw you a homecoming party when you get here." They pulled Haley into a hug and were almost afraid to let her go. Her parents came up and said their good byes even though she was mad at them for making her go. Luke, Peyton, and little Nathan were up next. Luke was first. "Haley, I want you to have fun out there. I also want you to be careful and come back to us as soon as you're done. I hope you'll visit us and if you don't it's only four years. Get back here as soon as you can," he said with tears. He pulled her into the tightest hug she'd gotten so far. Peyton walked up all teary eyed. "Haley, god I will miss you. You've been like another best friend to me. You were there through it all. Everything with me and Luke. I can't say how much you'll be missed here. I do hope you get back as soon as possible though and we will keep in touch while you're out there. Good luck," Peyton said hugging her as they both cried. She pulled away and looked at her sort of nephew. She picked him up and looked at him. "Nate, you know I'll be back as soon as I can right? So you remember me and I'll write you letters and tapes. That'll help you read ok?" He nodded and she hugged him and gave him a bunch of kisses. The last one up was Nathan. He wanted the last piece of her before she left him for four years. She looked at him and the tears were coming so easily. He stood with his hands in his pockets and she looked at him with swollen eyes. Everyone watched in the background trying to figure out what was going on. "Haley," he said with fear of loss in his eyes.
