Hey. Thank you for reviewing. Please keep doing it. Otherwise I'll cry.

Anyhow. The song is called "True" by the spiky haired lover, Ryan Cabrera.

Thank you xxx

(Britney Rocks!)

Chapter 4

"No way!" He said leaning in to turn the dial. Haley swatted his hand away.

"Hanson? You have to be kidding me here. Since when was that ever acceptable?" Nathan whined.

"Same time they decided you could act like a brat. I drive. I pick the tunes." She said while staring straight ahead. She sighed. "The moment we get to Wilmington, I am going to kill Brooke"

"We'll can you blame them for trying to avoid a 4 hour car journey with you? You have done nothing but complain since you got to Brookes house," Nathan said while opening a box of cracker jacks.

"Have I been that bad?" She asked

"Hales, they choose to get in a car with "The Tim" over you. So I'd say. Yeah, that bad" He said in-between bites.

"Your right, I have been a b, sorry…. But were still listening to Hanson." She said with a smirk.

"PLEASE, anything but this" He said pleadingly, "I promise to be nice" She looked at him sceptically." Okay, I'll give you a crackerjack" He said hopefully.

"Deal. But I want the prize" She said smiling for the first time that evening.

Nathan tore open the bag." Uh, deal, it's just some crummy bracelet" He grabbed her wrist and slid it on. Goosebumps went up her arm.

Nathan stared at her for a second. She pretended to be amerced in driving.

"So, um, where's your CD collection?" He asked awkwardly.

"Oh yeah, it's in the compartment in front of you"

He reached in and pulled out a bunch of CD's.

"John Mayer. FooFighters. Beck. Britney spears?"

A blush crept onto her face. " Hey, hit me baby one more time is a classic."

"Yeah classic crap" He said while looking through some more CD's.

He picked one out and stuck it in. It surprised her. She had thought he'd go for her N.E.R.D. CD. But yet again, he surprised her.

I wont talk
I wont breathe
I wont move till you finally see
That you belong with me

You might think I don't look
But deep inside
In the corner of my mind
I'm attached to you
I'm weak
Its true
Cause I'm afraid to know the answers
Do you want me too?
Cause my heart keeps falling faster

It was then that she realised, that she really didn't know much about him. Sure, she knew he liked Basketball. But a 3 year old could have worked that out.

The very fact that she was curious disturbed her.

I've waited all my life
To cross this line
To the only thing that's true
So I will not hide
Its time to try
Anything to be with you
All my life I've waited
This is true

She sighed. The mood in the car had changed. It was suddenly filed with melancholy.

You don't know what you do
Every time you walk into the room
I'm afraid to move
I'm weak
Its true
I'm just scared to know the ending
Do you see me too?
Do you even know u met me?

"Why do we argue?" Nathan's question pulled her out of her thoughts.

"Because we don't like each other." She didn't know why she had said that. She didn't really mean it. Which was weird. Just yesterday, she would have told you that the only person she hated in the entire world, was Nate. Now she was unsure if that had ever been true.

Nathan sighed, "I like you. I mean, sure you're always rude. But I can tell you're a nice person"

"Just not to you...Look, I'm sorry, but you just get to me. And annoy me. So much. But, I don't not like you…. Does that make sense?"

He smiled," Sure, we'll how about we make ourselves a deal then. We don't argue. It seems like all I do is stress you out and you should enjoy this weekend."

"Yes but than what will you do for fun?" She said laughing.

"Okay. Much. We wont fight much."

"Sure."

I've waited all my life to cross this line
To the only thing that's true
So I will not hide
Its time to try anything to be with you
All my life I've waited

4 hours later

Haley pulled up in the huge drive way.

"Oh god, Shut up!" She said through bursts of laughter.

"Hey, what's so funny about my singing?" He asked with a smirk.

"Nothing, I'm sure Jack Johnson's very jealous," She said earnestly.

"I think your being sarcastic James, and I don't appreciate sarcasm"

"Oh yeah, what are you going to do about it then?" She said poking he's hard chest.

"How do you feel about tickling?" He said with a grin.

She instantly jerked back and opened her door. He did the same and came chancing around the car.

"You can run, but you can't hide!" He called.

Haley just screamed incomprehensibly and run some more.

Luke got out of the car next to them." Oh god, it's worse than I thought. They've started on actual violence now"

Payton and Brooke give each other meaningful looks.

Tim just looked confused. Then looked over at Brooke "So now can we eat?"

Brooke rolled her eyes. "Yes. God forbid we go for over 10 minutes without eating something"

Luke looked alarmed." You mean I have to carry all of Brookes bags again?"

"Luke, stop being so overdramatic. Tell you what. You get Haley and Nathan to stop rolling around on the grass like that. And Tim here, will get my bags."

"Hey why me?"

"Because, you want to eat. And I own the fridge and the food inside it. You see where I'm going with this"

"Sure… well, kind of… but I thought this was your parents beach house…and-"

Payton cut in." Oh Tim would you carry the damn bags!"

Review please. Pretty please?
