----CHAPTER 2----
Haley was sitting up in her room when she heard a knocking on her bedroom door. Who would be knocking in this house? Wait a minute I'm the only one who's home Haley took off her reading glasses and put them down on top of her books and quickly got off the bed and made her way to the door but just as her hand reached the knob it turned and the door opened, almost smacking her in the face.
"Tutorgirl.?." Brooke questioned as she stuck only her head in the door.
"Brooke? Why are you here, you're 20 minutes early and How did you get in?" Haley opened the door further to allow Brooke to walk into the room. Brooke stepped in and looked around the room.Haley noticed Brooke's actions and a slight look of confusion crossed her face."What?"
"First of all, you ask too many questions at once. So in order Yeah Brooke, that's my name. Practice ended early so I just came striaght here.And some girl who I'm going to assume is your sister, Taylor I think that's what she said, let me in. And I was just looking around, not what I thought it would look like." Haley just looked at Brooke in shock.
"I have never heard anyone speak that quickly and say something that long in only one breath." Brooke just shrugged at Haley's statement.
"If you think that's bad just wait until I'm over tired and running on nothing but caffiene." Brooke and Haley both laughed, knowing that it was true. Haley placed her hands in the back pockets of the faded blue jeans she was wearing and looked around the room, as if searching for something to talk about. Finally Haley spoke up.
"So should we go now or stand around in silence?" She looked over at Brooke who was wearing and fashionable blue sweat suit with a light blue tank underneath and Haley couldn't help but look down at what she was wearing, faded blue jeans and a plain green scoop neck sweater and a multicolored scarf. What was I thinking agreeing to go out with her, we are nothing alike. I'm just so blah and she's captin of the cheerleading squad. She's probably only hanging out with me because Pey or Nate asked her too.
"I vote for shopping." Haley was quickly ripped from her thoughts and couldn't remeber what she had asked. It came back to her after a second and she walked over to her desk and grabbed the jacket that was hanging on the back of the chair.
"Wait a minute. Did you just say that Taylor was home?" Brooke who was caught of guard by the question, put down the picture she had been looking at. Brooke looked over at Haley and quickly nodded her head up and down.
"Yup. That was the name I was told."
"I'll be right back." Haley put her jacket back down and walked past Brooke and out the bedroom door. Brooke turned back and contiued to look at the pictures on top of Haley's dresser.

"Tay" Haley called out as she walked down the stairs. Once she reached the bottom she decided to call out agian. "Taylor. I know you're here."
"Hey Haley-bub." Haley looked over at her older sister, Taylor James. Taylor had always be notorious for stirring up trouble when she came home. "What? Don't look so shocked to see me, I live here too." Taylor took a bite of her sandwich and looked over at her favorite baby sister...well her only baby sister acctually.
"I have the right to be shocked, I mean I haven't seen you since last Thanksgiving, when you got into that huge fight with Quinn and slammed both pies in her face and oh yeah and the stuffing too!" Taylor let out a laugh at the memory and her sisters fustration. "Tay, that wasn't funny...Okay so maybe it was but that is sooo not the point."
"Hey but in my defense Quinn was asking for it and you know it." Taylor stated.
"She was. But seroiously Tay, why are you home?" Haley gave her a stern look and her best sad puppy eyes, which she knew Taylor could never resist. Taylor grunted and rolled her eyes knowing the trick Haley was trying to pull.
"Haley-bub that doesn't work on me any more so nice try." Haley contiued giveing Tay the 'look' and finally Taylor cracked "Fine, just stop looking at me like that." Haley's face broke out in to a smile I knew I still had it
"I stopped, now on with the story." Haley looked down at her watch, knowing that Brooke was probably getting bored and probably antsy.
"Okay, so basically, I'm transferring out to T.H.U. so I decided instead of going through the hassel of finding an apartment and a job to pay for it, I'd move home and be with my Haley-bub." Haley raised her eyebrow knowing that was most-likely only part of the story.
"Fine. I'll accept that for now, seeing how as Brooke is waiting and this is gonna take awhile." Haley turned around and walked back up the stairs,Taylor knew that she hadn't heard the end of it and decided that she would worry about it when the time came.

Brooke walked around Haley's room, stopping to look at the little things that made a room so personal. She stopped to look at all of the photos, books, and cds that were scattered around the room.Hmmm...Doft Punk, not bad, very Peyton. Travis very Lucas, Kelly Clarkson very me. Bonnie McKee...never heard of her, JD Natasha, never heard of her either Brooke just nodded her head as she contnued to make her way through the room.
She finally came to the bulliten board that caught her eye when she had first walked in. It had been littered with various photos of what Brooke assumed were Haley's brothers and sisters and many photos of her and Luke. Brooke looked over the board, careful not to miss one thing. She had learned so far that Haley had been to 5 concerts (2 for the same band) She had broken her left arm when she was younger and she appeared to be the youngest of 6. Brooke hadn't even looked through a thrid of the board when Haley came back.
"Sorry. I had no idea Taylor was here. I'm ready when you are." Haley walked over to where Brooke was standing.Haley had noticed Brooke looking at all of her photos so Haley lifted her arm and pointed at a picture.
"That one has always been my favortie." Brooke looked at the picture of Haley and Lucas. It looked like it had been taken recently, Haley had been on Luke's back and the two both looked genuinely happy, smiles were plasterd on their faces and Haley was holding a chocolate ice cream cone and some had been smeared on Lucas's face.
"You really miss him don't you?" Haley nodded still looking at the picture, the sadness obvious in her eyes.
"Yeah, I just wish he'd come home." Brooke quickly decided to change the subject, knowing that Haley wasn't really ready to talk about Lucas yet.
"So I think it's time for shopping." Brooke stated cheerfully as she turned to face Haley
"I think you right." Smiles crossed both of there faces.The two walked out of the room, and made their way to Brooke's car.
