Author's Note: Hey, sorry that it's been so long since I've updated this, but I've been really busy lately. But I'm here and I come baring an update just for you Baley fans. It's basically just a transition chapter, but there should be lots of Baley in it, but we'll have to wait and see.

...WWHT…

"I'm coming," Taylor called out in a hushed yell, moving quickly towards the front door before the person knocking could wake her baby sister. She had gone up to check on Haley a few minutes ago and was happy to see that she had finally fallen asleep, she didn't need her being woken up.

"It's just me," Brooke's voice came through the door. After announcing her presence, Brooke didn't feel the need to wait for Taylor any longer and just opened the door and stuck her head in, giving the blonde a big smile. "Hey."

"Oh, hey, Brookie," she greeted with a smile, stopping her movements towards the door. Brooke closed the door and began to take off her jacket. "I thought you were having breakfast with your mother."

"I've survived," Brooke answered, shrugging it off. Taylor could tell that something was bothering her; she was a big sister after all. "She found out about me and Hales."

"Whoa," Taylor sighed, surprised at the new information. It was something they were all silently dreading, but hadn't talked about yet. They all knew that neither set of parents would be too pleased with their daughters' relationship. "How'd that go?"

"I'm not sure," Brooke answered. Her mom had seemed okay enough with the idea, but Brooke knew her better than that. There was no way that her mother would be totally cool with her daughter being in love with another girl. She definitely had something up her sleeve. Brooke just wasn't sure what it was yet.

"What did she say?"

"Nothing really," Brooke shrugged. "She did invite Hales and Karen over for dinner tomorrow night. She said she really wanted to meet them." Even Taylor could tell that there was something strange going on and she hadn't even meet Angela before.

"That should be fun," she commented, taking Brooke's jacket out of her hands and throwing it over the banisher. "What do you think she's up to?"

"I'm really not sure," Brooke answered. She had thought about it her whole way there and she still wasn't sure. Her parents were the best when it came to lying and manipulating, they were just second behind Dan Scott. "I'll ask Hales is she's willing to risk it and if she says yes then we'll just have to wait and see."

"Sounds like a plan," Taylor answered, nodding her head. She wasn't so sure it was such a good idea to have dinner with Mrs. Davis. If there was one thing she knew, it was that a rich, white-collar woman like Angela Davis was not an open-minded person. There had to be something going on and Taylor wasn't about to sit back and watch her sister get hurt again. "Would you mind if I joined you guys? A little back up if it's needed."

"Actually, that would be greatly appreciated," Brooke answered. She really liked Taylor. At first she wasn't so sure if she would, she was afraid that the girl would be upset about their relationship, but she couldn't have been more wrong. Then again, she was related to Haley, Brooke shouldn't have had a doubt that she would be great.

"I'm sure Karen won't have a problem with it either." Even though Taylor was close with Karen, she was nowhere near as close as Haley was to the older woman. Taylor had always kind of envied their relationship because she wanted to have someone she could talk to like Haley did. Then, her parents seemed o favor her over Haley, so it wasn't really necessary for her to have another mother.

"We'll ask her later today," Brooke answered, moving further into the house. She looked into the living room for her girlfriend before remembering Haley had said that she was trying to fall asleep. "So where that adorable girlfriend of mine?"

"Oh, she's upstairs," Taylor answered nodding towards the stairs and pointing in the same direction. "The doctor said she should take a nap since she couldn't get any sleep last night. She finally dosed off a few minutes ago."

"I won't wake her then," Brook replied. She knew how Haley could get when she didn't get any sleep and she didn't want to have to deal with her mother and a cranky Haley all in the same day. "I'll just go up and sit with her."

"Okay," Taylor nodded, trying to hide her smile. She just couldn't believe how cute they were together. If her memory served her correctly, Brooke was always the most popular girl in school and Haley was far from that title. So for Brooke to turn out to be the sweetest thing was a big surprise. "Just call down if you guys need anything."

"You got it, Tay." Brooke waved at Taylor as she disappeared into the kitchen. Brooke took a moment before making her way up the stairs and towards Haley's room. Just as she was about to knock, she remembered that Haley was sleeping and decided it was best just to walk in. She opened the door a bit and peaked inside to see that Haley was curled up on her side, her knees bent and her head buried in the pillow.

A soft smile graced Brooke's lips as she saw the familiar sight. As cute and adorable Haley was when she was awake, she was twice that amount when she was asleep. Brooke could still remember the first time that they had spent the night together. Haley had been so nervous and Brooke thought it was the most endearing thing in the whole world. That was the night Brooke fell in love with Haley.

"Alright," Brooke sighed, pulling back from Haley's lips and sitting up on the bed. Haley frowned and pushed herself up on her elbows so she was able to see Brooke's face as she spoke. Brooke glanced at her watch and was surprised to find that it was so late. They had been making out for hours. "I guess I better get going. It's getting pretty late."

"I wish you didn't have to go," Haley whined. She knew she sounded like a baby, but she didn't care in the least. She really didn't want Brooke to go and she knew there was only one way to keep that from happening. Problem was, she was too chicken to ask that question.

"Me too, baby," Brooke agreed, leaning down for another quick kiss. When she pulled away she was amused to see how swollen Haley's lips were. It was a good thing her parents weren't home because there was no way that they would be able to explain the way they looked. The brightest smile lit up on Haley's face at the words. "What?"

"You called me baby," she pointed out, her smile widening even more as she said it again herself. She knew that Brooke liked her; she just wasn't sure how serious it was between them. Brooke Davis wasn't exactly known for having long-term relationships.

"Is that bad?" Brooke asked. She hadn't even realized that she said it. Now that she thought about it, she could understand why Haley was so giddy about the pet name. It wasn't until just recently that Brooke had started calling her Hales. Even after they started seeing each other and having secret rendezvous, Brooke still called her Tutor Girl.

"Not at all," Haley assured her, her smile not dimming a notch. "It felt nice, actually. I like it." A smile the size of Haley's appeared on Brooke's face and the dimples that Haley loved so much made their presence known. "Almost as much as I like you, Dimples."

"You like me?" Everyone thought that Brooke was this self confident, arrogant girl, but she was just as nervous about this relationship as Haley was. She had never felt this way about someone before, the feelings she was having for Haley were so overwhelming at times that she didn't think she would be able to control herself.

"Yeah, I mean… yeah," Haley stuttered. She hadn't meant to say that out loud and now she looked like an idiot. Of course Brooke didn't feel the same way. How could she have been so stupid? Brooke looking at her with that shocked look wasn't making matters any better either. "It's okay that you don't feel the same way, it's cool. This isn't the same thing to you as it is to me, that's okay. I just wanted to…"

Anything further that Haley had to say was cut off when Brooke crushed her lips against hers and laid them back out on the bed. Haley could feel Brooke's tongue tracing her bottom lip and asking for entrance, which she happily gave. They had been making out for over two weeks now, and every time they kissed, it felt like that first time again.

Brooke was in heaven. She was well known around Tree Hill for being somewhat of a slut and for the most part; what they said was true. She had been with a lot of guys, so she was pretty much an expert in kissing. To this day, she still couldn't believe what an amazing kisser Haley was. It was like she was some kind of Goddess and Brooke was just the luckiest girl in the world. If Haley was this good at kissing, Brooke didn't even want to think about what it would be like when they finally slept together.

"I really like you, too," Brooke whispered once she pulled her lips away from Haley's. The other girl looked up at her with glossy and dazed eyes, still breathless from what just happened. "The things you do to me, the way you make me feel…it's all new to me, but I like it. I love being with you, even when we're just hanging out, and I hate it when we're apart."

"What are you saying, Tigger?" Haley couldn't believe her ears. Was Brooke Davis asking her what she thought she was asking her? Brooke felt all the tension and nervousness that had settled in her stomach wash away as she saw the look on Haley's face. Brooke moved down and placed a delicate kiss on Haley's forehead.

"I'm saying that I want you to be my girlfriend," she answered. Haley smiled so wide that it looked like she slept with a hanger in her mouth. Brooke could only take that as a good sign. Without saying anything, Haley grabbed the front of Brooke's shirt and pulled her down, capturing her pink lips in a heated kiss. That was all the answer that Brooke needed. When they pulled away, Brooke leaned her head again her girlfriend's.

"Stay with me tonight?" Haley asked in a husky whisper. Brooke knew what she meant and that was perfectly fine with her. She understood that Haley wasn't ready for that kind of step yet, and that was okay with her. She didn't want to rush into anything either. Haley was too important to her to lose over something as stupid as sex.

"Every night, baby," Brooke answered. She placed one more quick kiss on Haley's lips before moving rolling off the girl and to her side. As soon as she was in place, she felt Haley snuggle closer to her. Brooke smiled and wrapped her arms around Haley, never wanting to let go. "Goodnight, Tutor Girl."

Brooke smiled at the memory. That was one of the best nights of her life. She shook her head, pushing the thought to the back of her brain and moved over to the bed. Without even giving it a second thought, Brooke pulled back the covers and slipped in beside Haley. Just as before and every night since then, Brooke wrapped her arms around Haley's small frame and held her tight.

No matter what her mother had planned for the both of them, it wasn't going to work. There was no way she was going to let her mother break them up. Haley was far to important to her to give up because some stupid woman didn't approve of their feelings. Brooke was going to be with Haley even if it cost her her mother. She just hoped Haley was willing to make that same sacrifice.

……….WWHT……….

"Hey, girls," Karen greeted them as they walked into the almost empty Café. It was the time of day between the lunch rush and the dinner one. It was definitely Karen's favorite part of the day. "What are you doing here, Haley?" I thought I told you to take the rest of the week off."

"You don't have to tell me twice," Haley assured her as she and Brooke moved to take their seat at the counter. Karen finished drying the mug, placed in back where it was supposed to go and flung her towel over her shoulder, giving the girls her full attention.

"She's not here to work, we came on a social call."

"What do I owe the pleasure?" Karen smiled at both girls. She didn't really know Brooke that well, not as well as she knew Haley, but she really liked her. Besides, there wasn't anyone she trusted more than Haley, so if Haley said she was a good person, Karen agreed wholeheartedly. She also couldn't forget the fact that she made her daughter happy than she had ever seen her since she was five.

"We kind of need a favor," Haley answered, looking at Karen unsurely. She had always thought of Karen as her mother, but for some reason, she wasn't sure if the feeling was mutual. Karen gave her a warm smile.

"You know I'd do anything for you, sweetie," Karen told Haley, hoping that the girl would believe her. She knew that Haley was kind of unsure about there relationship and she just wished there was some way she could convince Haley that she loved her just as much as her own son. Haley's features seemed to relax at the words.

"My mom kind of found out about us," Brooke started. Karen's eyes widened and a feeling of dread washed over her. She was hoping they would never have to deal with their parents. Neither set was the most open-minded people in the world. "And she invited Haley and her parents over for dinner."

"And since my parents don't know nor do they seem to give a damn about me, we thought that maybe you wouldn't mind…"

"Of course, Haley," Karen stopped her. She didn't like Angela Davis, but she was willing to suffer through a meal with her for Haley. Haley smiled at her in thanks and reached across the counter to grab a menu. Karen and Brooke shared a look and they both seemed to be thinking the same thing.

This wasn't going to end well.

...WWHT...

I know that was lame, but I really wanted to get you guys a chapter ASAP and that was the best I could do at the moment. The next one should be better, so don't worry. And I'll try to get an update for FYITM as well. Please tell me what you think. Thanks.
