Once they entered the house Brooke grabbed the letter from Haley's hands.
"Tutor Girl, this lovely letter from Nathan says that we have to get you ready by 5:00" Brooke told her.
"Thanks Tigger, but you do know I can read, right?" Haley said sarcastically back
"I'm gonna pretend I didn't hear that." Brooke told her, "Now grab your dress and get your skinny ass in the shower." After one long shower Haley stepped out and wrapped a towel around her body. As soon as she got out of the bathroom; Brooke and Peyton grabbed her and through her into the nearest chair. For the next hour and a half Brooke did Haley's makeup and Peyton played with Haley's hair. When they were finished Haley looked outstanding. She had on the black dress, her eyes had that smoky effect, her hair was just curled at the ends, and she had silver bracelets to accentuate the black. By the time they were done it was nearly 5:00.
"Okay soo are you guys gonna tell me what this is?" Haley asked them while giving them the puppy dog eyes.
"Ahh…Brooke I should warn you that I can never keep a secret from some one with puppy dog eyes. Soo I am gonna go before I say something that will get me killed." Peyton hurriedly said and ran for the door.
"Man I almost had her." Haley thought
"Well Tutor Girl it looks like it's just you and me until Nathan gets here. And you already know that nothing you say or anything you do is gonna change my mind on not telling you." Brooke said firmly.
"Yeah I know. You were always the tougher one to break, but Jake on the other hand…on pouty lip and he told you all of his secrets." Haley said with a giggle which got Brooke to laugh. Fifteen minutes later and the doorbell rang.
"Go get it Tiger! Know I will see you tomorrow. Don't do anything I wouldn't do." Brooke said with a wink. Haley cautiously walked down the stairs.
"Okay just breathe…everything is gonna go perfectly…he's not gonna pressure you." Haley thought. When she got to the door she expected to see Nathan, but outside was a guy she hadn't seen before.
"Hey Haley, right?." She nodded and the guy continued, "I'm a friend of Nathan's from Cali and I just moved here. He told me to take you to an address soo let's go." He said, "Oh by the way my name's Tim Smith."
"Well you already now my name." Haley said with a giggle, "But it's nice to meet you."
"You, too." Tim said while holding the door open for her. They drove out of the base and made there way to the beach. Once they pulled up to Nathan's beach house Tim ran over to her door and opened it for her.
"Alright this is your stop. Have a nice time." Tim told her.
"By Tim I hope to see you soon." Haley told him politely
"Peace Out Girl Scout!" Tim yelled out of the window of the car. When Haley heard what Tim said; all of her nervousness just seemed to disappear.
"Well that guy was something else." Haley said to no one. She made her way to the door and found a letter stuck to it. She pulled it off and read it. The note told her to come in and to go sit in the dining room. Haley did exactly what the note said and she waited for what seemed like hours, but was really only five minutes. Nathan creeped up behind her and wrapped his arms around her and kissed her neck gently. Haley tensed up for a sec but then realized who it was and instantly all the tension was gone.
"So are you gonna tell me what this is for." Haley asked after he took a seat across from her.
"You didn't get anyone to ruin the surprise?" Nathan said, "Wow I thought for sure Jake, Peyton, or Luke would've spilled."
"Yeah well they all just mysteriously disappeared when I asked them. So can you please tell me?" Haley said with puppy dog eyes.
"Okay but first open this." Nathan said while giving her one white rose and a small box. Haley carefully tore of the little bow and opened the box. She gasped a little when she saw what was inside.
"Nate this is way too much." Haley said while handing him the box back.
"No Haley it really isn't." He said while getting up, grabbing her wrist, and securing the bracelet. (here's the link http/ Nate, it's really beautiful." Haley told him
"And soo are you." Nathan told her honestly
"So I'm starving. What's for dinner?" Haley asked him with a smile
"Who says I'm gonna feed you?" Nathan smirked
"Well silly that would be me." Haley said while kissing him hard. She pulled away needing air.
"Yeah let me go grab…" Nathan said breathless
"What are you gonna go grab?" Haley teased him. Nathan quickly got up and went to the kitchen. He took a couple of breaths to help him relax and returned with two covered plates. He sat them down on the table and Haley uncovered her plate first. Her eyes lit up when she saw what they were gonna eat.
"Macaroni and cheese, you remembered!" Haley said excitedly
"Of course I remember. You only told me like nine times that you love Mac and Cheese. What did you say it was?" Nathan said with a smirk, "Oh yeah, food of the gods." He teased her. They spent the next hour just eating and talking. When they were finished Nathan dragged Haley outside and onto the beach. Out on the beach was a blanket with tons of lit candles.
"So how did you manage to do this?" Haley asked
"Well let's just say I owe Tim a lot." Nathan told her
"Yeah I really liked him." Haley said
"Well not too much right." Nathan said with a pout
"Oh I definitely liked him better than you." Haley smirked. Nathan grabbed her face and kissed her. "Okay so maybe I like you better." The rest of the night was just spent in each other's arms where they talked about everything and nothing at the same time. Some how Haley fell asleep in his arms and well Nathan already knew that she wouldn't be leaving.
"I swear this girl has a death grip while she sleeps." Nathan joked to himself. Of course Haley wasn't actually asleep yet and just snuggled up closer.
"I'm good." Haley thought as she actually drifted to sleep.
