Lost in the Past
Chapter 16
A/N - Ok, so even I loved the last chapter. But there's still a lot of Leyton drama on the way. So, you've been warned. Naley interaction will be in upcoming chapters. Sorry. So, enjoy:
Peyton pulled away from their make-out session with a sparkle in her eye. She gave him a nod of approval as he swept her off her feet. He had the same sparkle while he was stumbling to the guest room. He made it to the bed and he very gently laid her down. She smiled as she pulled him back on top of her and pulled his mouth down to hers once more. Everything she kept hidden inside was escaping. All the need and want she had bottled up was getting the better of her.
Her hands had a mind of their own when they moved to the band of his bathing suit. Her heart was racing and her mind was screaming, 'The kids! They'll be the ones to get hurt'. She wanted to have self-control, but it felt too right to be wrong. They both wanted it at that point, so was there a reason to stop?
Lucas didn't know if she truthfully wanted him, or if she had just been alone for so long. He knew he wanted her though, so he pulled her jeans down off her legs and was rewarded with a small smile. They were taking their time and enjoying every second of being together, this time around. He had just began to pull her shirt up when they heard a light tap at the door.
"Mommy," little Nate yelled from the other side of the door.
"Shit," Lucas mumbled jumping off Peyton and falling to the floor.
"Oh my God," Peyton said in shock of the situation.
She fixed her crooked shirt and threw Luke's bathing suit at him. She panicked as she struggled to get back into her jeans.
"Hold on, Nate. Mommy's coming," she yelled trying to put her hair back into place.
She walked back over to Luke and wiped the lipstick from his face. He fixed his hair and followed Peyton to the door. She took a deep breath and pulled the door open to reveal a smiling 6 year old. Peyton smiled back.
"Hi buddy," Luke said appearing a second later.
"Mommy, Daddy! Look what I found!" he exclaimed showing a huge seashell. His eyes held the same look Luke's often did. She saw so much of Luke in him, he could only see Peyton.
"Wow! That's awesome! Why don't you go look for more and we'll be out in a minute," Peyton told him with a plastered smile. Nate turned and ran back outside. Peyton turned back to Lucas while a tear rolled down her cheek. 'This can't be good,' Lucas thought to himself.
"I have to go. This wasn't supposed to happen," she said nervously.
"But it did happen. You wanted it too!" he retorted angrily.
"I don't know what I want anymore! I just need to go," she yelled walking to the door.
"You just won't admit it," he said quietly.
She looked back and softened when she saw the look in his eyes. 'You always could read him right through his eyes' she thought.
"Won't admit what?"
"Admit that we're still good together after all this time. Admit that even though I hurt you and even though you're afraid of getting hurt again or hurting the kids that you still love me as much as the day you said "I do". Won't admit that every time you see me you feel the same as you did in highschool. You still blush when I compliment you. You still get sweaty palms when I step too close. And when I kiss you...you still get weak in the knees and lightheaded. Admit that the night after dinner, if only for a moment you felt what we had. You felt what I did and we had that same connection from the first time we kissed at Nathan's party all those years ago," he said stepping closer again.
She began to tear up when he grabbed her hands and leaned towards her.
"Don't deny it, I can see it in your eyes," he whispered in her ear.
"No, I have to go...I can't do this again," she said pulling her hands back. She glanced back once more and left. He flopped back on the bed and let out a sigh.
A minute later his son walked back in with a curious look on his face.
"Where's mommy? Why were you yelling?"
"Mommy and I were just arguing a little. She had to go run some errands, bud," Lucas said seeing the pain.
"You made her leave?! Why?! What did you do daddy?!" he yelled upset.
"Nothing...she just had to leave. What's wrong?" Lucas asked, now upset with himself.
"Why do you have to yell? Mommy was fine, why do you always make her leave?" Nathan asked crying.
He ran out and continued running down the beach. Lucas walked out after him and told his brother he was going to take a walk.
Over in England, Haley was making herself fall asleep. She's been lying on the bed for an hour. All she wanted was to dream again. Just to go back to the perfect world, where she was ok again. Finally after so long she drifted off to dreamland once more.
As an important employee, Haley James, was closing the café on a late night. She's been working hard all night. She was having a conversation with the dark haired man in front of her, when the door opened behind her. The café was closed. "Sorry we're..." she trailed off upon seeing the woman. She began to ramble and just as a song started to play, she felt herself waking up.
She slowly opened her eyes to the voice of the only person she ever truly hated. She could hear him right outside her door on his cell phone. She could hear his anger and she began to get frustrated with her whole life. She huddled herself into a corner and waited until she heard him walk away. She didn't like how her life was working out and she decided that now was her chance to change it. She wasn't daring, but she needed to take a risk if anything was ever going to be different.
She stood up and made a run for the kitchen phone. She got there and started going through the caller ID as fast as she could until she found the number she needed. She immediately dialed it and let it ring until the answering machine came up. She was disappointed, but she was going to leave a message. This was her life.
"Hey, you've reached Lucas and Nathan Scott so if you need us you know what to do," the answering machine said to her. She began to panic just as it finished. She heard footsteps coming from one of the bedrooms and she did the only thing she could as Chris came into view.
"HELP!!!! My name is Haley, please help me, I really need help if you could just..." she said as quickly as she could. She saw the rage as he grabbed the phone from her and ripped the base from the wall. He slammed it as hard as he could into a nearby wall, which almost gave her a heart attack.
Lucas was distraught from the earlier conversation with Peyton. He arrived back to the beach house to see Nathan playing with Will. He was laughing and tickling him. He was building sand castles and rolling a tennis ball along the beach. Luke felt sympathy because he knew that Haley would give her life to be able to see this. She would've done anything to be here with them. Luke knew that if he talked to Nathan he could never tell him everything that happened with the two of them. It would kill Nathan that Luke messed that up, when she was right in front of him. He just wanted to know what went wrong that he turned to another girl.
Haley was sitting on the floor in tears. She looked at the man in front of her and began to beg for him to not hurt her.
"Please...I didn't mean it...can you just let me go this one time," she cried with all she had.
He looked at her with no pity and raised his hand. He slapped her straight across the face, which left her in hysterics. He still had no remorse towards the whole situation.
"You have no friends. Get that through your thick skull. You don't deserve to be loved. You're lucky I'm still here. You're ugly and have nothing but me so stop trying to get away. Now, get in the room and get your stuff," he said coldly.
"What...why?" she asked with red eyes.
"Because we're moving. We need to leave and I don't want an argument," he told her, walking away.
"Someone loves me," she said under her breath so he couldn't hear.
The day after, Lucas and Nathan made plans to go find Haley no matter what it took. They drove to Peyton's to drop the kids off with her. Lucas still had not talked to her, so he sent Nathan in.
"She's doing ok, man," Nathan said pulling out of the driveway. He received a nod from his brother and a few hours later they arrived at the airport.
"We need two tickets to England," Lucas said impatiently. He charged them on his credit card and stalked off to the gate. Nathan followed not too far behind.
After hours of waiting they stepped onto the plane. Lucas took the window seat and Nathan respectively took the seat next to him. They began to taxi out of the busy airport and Lucas was checking the messages at home before they had to turn off the phones. He punched in his pin code and got the first few messages he had. He listened quickly, until he came to the last one.
"HELP!!!! My name is Haley, please help me, I really need help if you could just..."
"Give me that!" he heard from a man's voice on the phone.
The color drained from his face when he heard her name. His heart was pounding when he turned his head. He looked over to his younger brother who had his headphones on. He still had no idea.
