Meant to be?

Chapter Three: True Feelings are realesed

Authors note: Just wanna say thanks to everyone whose been reviewing it helps a lot to know you like it! I've made Hayley a bit different, I mean she wouldn't usually be so angry or mad. But she does love Noah maybe she'd do anything for him! I hope you like it!

"Hey", Noah said to Dani who was sitting on the sofa alone "Hey what's wrong Dan?" Noah asked concerned.

"It's Hayley", Dani sniffed "She said she hates me and that I'm her worst enemy", she said crying.

"What? Why?" Noah asked confused

"Why do you think Noah? She found out that you and me got married", Dani said

"Oh"

"Is that all you can say? Noah she screamed at me and said 'how could you marry the guy I love' she's treating me like the worst best friend in the world", Dani said tears still coming down her cheeks.

"She said what?" Noah asked shocked

"You heard, she said she loves you"

"What? Hayley loves me", Noah asked but sounded a little too happy

"I guess that's good news to you", Dani said moodily

"Dan I..." Noah started

"Do you love her?" Dani asked looking up at the ceiling

"Dan"

"Noah do you love Hayley?" Dani asked again

"I um well... um no", Noah said slowly and awkwardly.

"Oh I get it you do love her", Dani said

"No Dan, I love you but"

"But you love Hayley too", Dani answered for him.

"Well yes, no, No", Noah said shocked that he'd admitted it to Dani

"So you just love her then", Dani said wiping her face with a tissue

"Dani I love you, I do but Hayley I just oh I dunno we seem to have this, connection", Noah said finding it hard to explain how he felt.

"Noah i'll ask you again, do you love Hayley", Dani said getting rather impatient

"I...um well I...um alright YES! Yes I do love her, Noah said sitting down and putting his head into his hands.

Dani just sat there staring at him.

"But Dan, I love you too", Noah said, softly

"I know you do"

"You do?"

"Yes, but Noah i'm not going to share you, not even with Hayley", Dani explained

"How do you mean?" Noah asked, a little puzzled

"You say you love us both"

"Yes"

"Well i'm not going to share you"

"Yeah but"

"In other words, Noah you choose who you want to be with. Me, your wife and mother of your child, or Hayley, the girl who chose Paris over you", Dani said and walked upstairs to get ready for the party.


Hayley sat at the dressing table in her old room at Irene's. She was getting ready for Jade and Kirsty's party that she had decided to go to afterall. Hayley was wearing a denim skirt and a pink top with some flip-flops. Irene had told her earlier on that it was on the beach and the dress-code was casual. Hayley had been crying on and off all afternoon. She had explained to Irene the awkward situation and how she felt. Would Noah have to choose? Hayley hoped not. As much as she wanted to be with Noah, she didn't want him to have to choose between her and Dani. She knew that when she arrived at the party it would be awkward when she was around the Sutherlands. But tonight was Hayley's night and she was going to enjoy it by catching up with old friends, meeting the new residents and maybe have a talk with Noah.
The beach looked perfect for an eighteenth birthday party. There were balloons and banners everywhere saying:

'Happy Birthday K and J'

or

'You're adults now Kirsty and Jade!'

Dani walked up to the twins who looked perfect in different trousers but similar sparkly tops.

"Hey guys"

"Hey Dan, where's Noah?" Jade asked, hugging her sister

"Um he's coming"

"What's wrong have you guys had a fight or something?" Kirsty asked whilst giving Dani a hug too.

"Um no, no everything's fine", Dani said quietly

"Oh, ok well we'll see you in a bit, Irene's just arrived so we better say hello", Kirsty explained walking over to Irene with her twin.

"Hi Irene, thanks for um", Jade stopped and stared, as did Kirsty at someone standing behind Irene.

"HAYLEY!" Jade shouted and gave Hayley a little hug.

Surprised by Jade's excitement Hayley laughed and hugged both girls too.

"Hi guys, sorry i'm here I know I wasn't invited but Irene practically forced me to come!" Hayley said

"I can't believe you're here! I've got to go and get Dani", Kirsty said about to walk over to Dani, who was talking to Noah, who'd just arrived.

"Actually no Kirst, we've already talked and I don't really want to talk to her again", Hayley said

"Oh"

"Now if you'll excuse me I think i'll catch up with some people", Hayley said, grabbing a glass of champagne and walking over to Leah.

"What happened Irene?" Jade asked really confused.

"Long story love, but to sum up four words, Dani, Noah, Marriage and Baby", Irene explained to the twins.


"So you and Jesse split up, how come?" Hayley asked Leah.

"Very long story. I guess we just weren't meant to be", Leah told Hayley.

Josie walked over to Hayley and Leah with a smile on her face.

"I don't believe we've met before", Josie said, holding out her hand for Hayley to shake

"What are you talking about? Angie, after everything you put Nick through you're now pretending like we've never met", Hayley shouted

"Hayles, calm down this isn't Angie", Leah explained

"What?"

"This is Josie, Angie's cousin", Leah said also mouthing sorry to Josie.

"Oh, oh i'm so sorry! Really sorry", Hayley said

"No it's fine you haven't been around for a couple and I do know what Angie was like!" Josie said, shaking hands with Hayley.

"You just look so alike"

"I know! I'm Josie Russell by the way", she said introducing herself.

"Hayley Smith".

Hayley didn't really concentrate on what Josie was saying after that, as she was too busy looking over at Noah and Dani. Dani didn't look happy at all and neither did Noah. Hayley started to feel a pang of guilt, was it her fault they were arguing? Hayley kept telling herself it wasn't but she knew deep down it was. Hayley was about to leave the party but Noah stopped her and whispered in her ear. Does he love me? Hayley thought, and smiled. But that wasn't the only thing she was smiling about three familiar looking faces stood in front of her, smiling their biggest smiles.


Hayley Smith's Secret Diary

Still Saturday, after Kirsty and Jade's Party

The party was ok. I mean everyone was happy enough to see me, which was nice and a relief! You'll never guess what though. Angie has a twin! Well she's not her twin, she's her cousin, but she's the spitting image of Angie! But she is a very nice person, much nicer than Angie! But I don't know she seems kind of, mysterious. Dani ignored me for the whole evening, which was kinda good as I didn't want to ruin the twins' party. Another thing i've just realised is that Noah will be a dad in a couple of months! I can't believe it. I was about to leave the party, when Noah stopped me. He put his hand on my shoulder and whispered 'Please stay' but I don't think anyone else heard. I better go downstairs, as i've tried to catch up with three very important people (four if you count the little one) They turned up just as I was about to leave and gave me big smiles. I've missed them so much and they're calling me now. I'd better go.
