Summary: Jake and Haley's first date. Nathan and Jake get into it about Haley. Jaley/Naley
Ch.3 – Will You Be Mine
The game was just about to start and Haley found a seat in the bleachers making sure that she would be able to see everything. When the Ravens came out of the locker rooms she spotted Jake and waved to him, he saw and waved back. Nathan saw the exchange and was filling up with hate and rage towards Jake. Jake noticed the nasty look and decided that he would try not to piss him off any more than he was.
It was now 10 seconds until the game would end and the Ravens were down by 2.
"Just pass the ball to Lucas!" Whitey barked out to the team.
"Ravens on three… One, two, three…" Tim was getting the team pumped up.
"RAVENS!" The team split and got into their positions.
The game started back up but Lucas couldn't get free.
"Tim! Over here!" Nathan shouted. Tim saw Nathan open and passed him the ball. He shot…
But missed. The ball was rebounded by Lucas who saw an open Jake and passed him the ball. Jake was at the three point line. He could win the game if he made the shot.
Time was running low and Lucas had passed the ball to Jake who had just made his shot. All he was thinking about was impressing Haley.
2…1…0… the ball was still in the air and everyone was holding their breath as the ball glided into the basket, nothing but net.
The crowd stood up and cheered for Jake who had just won the game. He was speechless as Lucas ran up to him and gave him a huge bear hug in congratulations. The rest of the team, but one, had come to applaud him for a good shot. Nathan stood looking on as the glory went to Jake (I know that this is almost exactly like episode 103 but I didn't mean it to be that way. I just wrote and that's what came out).
Nathan began to search the crowd for Haley. When he did he glanced up to her and she peered back at him. They stood silently, just gazing, until Haley turned her attention to Jake. She began to clap and smile, she then blew him a kiss, one kiss that sent Nathan onto a new level of jealousy.
Haley stood waiting for Jake anxious for their date. She was a little concerned on how Nathan would act when he found out that their date was going to be at his after game party.
Nathan was the first person to come out of the locker room. He was looking around the crowd of people and spotted Haley who gave him a deadly look. He decided that he shouldn't bother her in fear of making the situation worse. He left the gym and was on his way to the beach house to get ready for the party.
Lucas and Jake walked out together after half the team had left. When they came out a huge crowd cheered and went over to Jake and gave him pats on the back and hand shakes. After the crowd had dissipated they made their way over to Haley waiting in anticipation.
"Hey Hales."
"Hey Luke… Jake." Haley smiled and blushed. She really didn't know why she felt so nervous around him.
"Hey Haley. So are you ready to go?"
"Yeah I am." Haley smiled even bigger then turned to Lucas.
"So Luke, are you going to Nathan's party?"
"Uh… yeah. Why?"
"Because Jake and I are going. I'm his date." Haley giggled at the thought of it. She was so happy.
"Oh…" Luke was very surprised. Jake dating Haley was one thing but bringing her to Nathan's party was totally different.
"Okay, well we'll see you there then."
"Bye Luke." Jake said as he put his arm around Haley's waist to turn her around so they could leave the gym.
"It's gonna be a long night…" Lucas was envisioning the fights that were bound to come.
Jake and Haley had just pulled up in front of Nathan's house. Jake turned to Haley with a look of concern on his face. Haley was confused by this look.
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing, I just wanted to make sure that you want to go, cuz if you don't we don't have to, we can catch a movie or something."
"No, I want to go. I don't want to hide my relationship. I'm not embarrassed of being with you." Jake smiled at Haley. She smiled back as they proceeded to get out of the car and make their way to Nathan's front door.
"What are they doing here?" Tim questioned when he spotted the couple walking. He ran into the house where he found Nathan sitting on the couch.
"Hey Nate. You'll never guess who I saw outside. Haley and Jake, that's who."
"What? What are they doing here?" Nathan stood up and went outside to see Jake and Haley holding hands and flirting.
"What the hell is this?" Nathan was pissed now. I mean, how dare they come to his party?
"Hey Nathan. Uh… Haley's my date. Is that a problem?"
"Yeah, it is." Nathan walked down the steps and pushed Jake.
"Nathan stop it!"
"Stay out of this Haley this is between me and Jake!" It was the final straw, Nathan couldn't keep his anger bottled up anymore, and he was at the breaking point.
"What the hell man! You two aren't even together anymore so what's the problem?"
"You're my problem asshole." Nathan punched Jake in the face causing him to fall on the ground.
Before Nathan could do anymore Haley had gone over by his side to comfort him.
"Why are you even hanging out with this loser anyway Haley?"
"I don't see any losers here accept for you!"
"Excuse me?"
"You heard me! You're the loser Nathan! Ever since we broke up you've been a total ass!"
"You know what, I'm going to forget that you said that." Before Haley could say anything more Nathan had gone back into the house.
After Nathan was long gone Haley was still laying by Jake's side trying to comfort him.
"Jake I'm sorry. If you don't want to go out anymore it's fine, I-I understand."
Haley was getting tears in her eyes. Jake sat up and wiped the tears from her eyes.
"It's okay Haley. Besides… you're worth it." Jake blushed as Haley smiled and the tears were coming even harder than before.
"Thank you." That was all she could manage. She was too choked up to give a speech.
"No probl—" Before he could finish his sentence he felt Haley's lips on his. It didn't take him longer than a half a second to respond to her. They were now engaging in a very passionate kiss on Nathan's front lawn forgetting about everything, just enjoying each other. (I know there is no front lawn, but deal. :-P)
At that moment Lucas had pulled up to find them making out and cleared his throat abruptly so they would come apart.
"Oh… hey Luke." Haley began to giggle when she looked at Jake, speechless.
"Hey Haley. Getting a little friendly with Jake are we?" He couldn't help but become defensive. Even if it was Jake she was always going to be a little sister to him.
"Uh… sorry… we were just…" still speechless.
"Yeah. I can see that." Lucas looked at them as they stood up and continued the walk into Nathan's house.
Once they were inside people began to stare and say things like "Jake and Haley? When did they get together?" Haley grabbed Jakes hand, indicating to him that she was nervous. He squeezed her hand tight to let her know that he was there with her. She smiled at the reassurance.
They made their way over to the kitchen where they found Peyton and Brooke laughing about something.
"Hey guys." Haley was glad to see some friendly faces.
"Hey Haley. So the rumors were true huh? You and Jake?" Peyton questioned. She knew Haley well enough that she could say that and not feel pushy about it.
"Yeah, me and Jake." Haley smiled and squeezed Jake's hand and he smiled too.
Just at that moment Nathan had walked in and rolled his eyes.
"Enough with the whole Jake and Haley thing! Jeez!"
"If you don't like it then you can just leave." Haley scowled at him.
"Whatever." Nathan left the room and began to beat himself up about his actions.
"Why am I being so mean? Why can't I just tell her how I feel instead of pushing her away more? G-d! I'm so stupid!" Nathan sighed to himself as this was running through his head.
"I do know one thing though… I have to get her back. I'll think of something that will make it impossible for her to deny me." Nathan smiled diabolically as he went upstairs to his bedroom to go figure out how he would do to get Haley back.
