Chapter-What a tangled web we weave

Brie and Carson walked into the hospital room solemnly. Nathan sat by Haley's bed and gave her a nod.

"Kids, theirs something you should know." Haley started.

"OK," Carson said suspiciously.

"I proposed to Haley and she said yes! So, we're getting married!" Nathan finished.

The expression on both of the children's face turned from a slight grin to a full out frown.

"What," Carson screamed, " Just forget all about dad. Fine! You were only married to him and had me with him. Yea, Go off and marry some jerk just a few years after he died."

"Carson, Apologize to Nathan right now! That was really mean!" Haley sternly replied back to him.

"No, I can't believe you mom. After dad died, I heard you tell Taylor, that you could never love another man ever. And that you wouldn't. You lied again! I hate you." Carson grimaced and ran out of the room.

"Oh my god, Nathan I'm so sorry about that. I had no idea. He would react that way."

"It's OK Hales. Brie you're all right about this marriage thing right?"

"Actually... I have to agree with Carson. I don't like this and dad, you just divorced mom yesterday. Come on, there is a thing called rushing it. Not that you need my approval or anything but I don't approve. Sorry."

"Your right, I don't need your approval." Nathan said plainly.

"I also agree that you're a jerk, dad. Haley how can you marry him anyways?" With that said Brie left the room too.

"What have we gotten ourselves into?" Haley asked.

"I have no clue but oh what a tangled web we weave."


"Knock, knock, knock." The door sounded.

"

"Coming," Taylor yelled as quickly finished applying blush to her thin cheeks and ran towards the door. When she opened it she found Matt looking more handsome than when she met him at the hospital.
"Hey," She greeted. She was wearing a tight black tube top with a short jean skirt. Most people couldn't pull it off but she could.

"Hey, you ready to go?" He asked, half stunned by the girl's beauty.

" Definitely" She said as they walked to he car. "It's going to be a great night," Taylor slyly thought to herself.


"They disappointed you too?" Carson asked walking up to Brie who was sitting in the cafeteria with her head resting on her arms.

"Yea, How could they do that to us? My dad didn't even ask us how we felt before he proposed. What a jerk."

"Yea and how could my mom say yes to something like that? My dad just died five years ago and now she's already getting married. What the heck? This is so screwed up."

"I guess they do love each other and make a cute couple, but their timing sucks."

"Brie, I need to talk to you." Nathan said walking up behind the two of them.

"OK talk." Brie said coldly.

"First of all Carson go to your mom's room she has something for you," Nathan fibbed and waited until her was out of ear shot, " Second of all cut all the crap. Cut the attitude. Cut the pity act. Cut all the crap. Haley and I love each other. I've loved her since I was 17. Your mother was just a replacement for my lost. I did love your mom, don't get the wrong impression. But I never did quite love her as much as I did and do Haley. When I was with Abby or Megan or whatever I was truly never really happy. Can't you just let me be happy for once?" Nathan walked away and let Brie think about all he told her.


"Mom, what do you have for me. Another broken promise?"

"Not exactly. Carson I'm happy with Nathan. He makes me feel good about myself. Your father's gone, there is nothing I can do to bring him back. I know you miss him, I miss him too. Everyday I think about him. I have to move on with my life and so do you. If we don't than we will be stuck on the past our whole lives. Carson, do you know why our eyes are placed in the front and not the back?"

"No"

"It's because it's better to look forward than to look back. I'm going to look forward to a life with Nathan and not back at how I can't move on. Carson will you look forward with me?"

"Yea, I guess. I'm sorry mom for everything." Carson reluctantly said and gave his mom a hug.


"Here we are," Matt said as they pulled up to TRIC.

"I'm going to tell you something that I never told anyone before," Taylor said, "I used to club a lot just so that I could get drunk and make out with someone. Yea, I was a little desperate. But I was wondering... Do you want to skip the getting drunk part and just make out." Taylor said the last part fast and braced herself for what Matt would say.

"Hell yea!" He replied and Taylor pushed him against the window in the car and started making out with him. The windows got steamy and Taylor started to unbutton his shirt.

"Wait, do you think things are moving to fast?" Matt asked in between kisses.

"No," Taylor said out of breath, as they started back up again!
