This is in my opinion my best chapter yet.
In New York…
Haley after sitting in her dressing room for about 10 minutes decides to check her email. Hoping to find something from Nathan, she's disappointed to find nothing from him.
Something catches her eyes. There was an email from WLBP Radio. 'Is that the radio station I was the other night? The one I did that interview with?'
She clicks on the email and reads:
Love©
Love is eternal; it never dies
Love never lies.
Love is there when you cry,
And it refuses to give up on you, and die.
Don't give up on love,
True love is written in the stars above.
For love, there is no need to roam,
Haley come home.
Love is blind,
However, you left your love behind.
Signed,
WLBP Radio
Haley was stunned. She realized the email was from Lucas, Brooke and Peyton. Apparently they thought she wouldn't answer an email from them. They were right. She licked on the attachment to find the song, "If your not the one," by Daniel Beddingfield.
Haley sat there speechless as the song played. With tears running down her face, her heart breaking, with every word.
In another part of New York…
Nathan gets off the bus, and looks around. Although he had grown up with money, he had been to New York. However, he didn't have time to waste, he had to get to the concert. He had to get to Haley.
When he arrived at the concert hall, it donned on him; he had no way of getting in. He had no ticket, and not enough money to buy one, probably too late anyway. Then it hit him; he knew what to do.
He walked over to the security guard in the front, which was taking tickets from people.
"Ticket please!" said the guard.
"Don't have one, can you tell me where the artist Haley Scott is doing her autograph signing."
"First off the artist is Haley James, and I would lose my job if I told you where her signing was to be, and you didn't have a ticket."
"OK, look I lied, I ain't a fan. I mean I am, but ok here's the thing. My name is Nathan Scott, I'm Haley's husband."
"OK, get out of here!" the guard turned his back on Nathan.
Nathan turned to leave; maybe he could catch her at the Hilton, where she was staying. He only knew about where she was staying cause the fact that he called Peyton. He needed a phone book.
"Hey dude!" yelled the security guard. "Hold up!"
"Yeah?"
"I see one of the artists over there, I'll go ask them to come check you out. If you're who you say you are, I'll let you in."
"Alright, thanks man."
"Wait here."
15 minutes later….
"Ok, Mr. Scott, I found one of the performers, they will be in a few minutes. Oh, here he comes."
As Nathan looked behind the guard, only to see his nemesis Chris!
"Oh crap."
"Oh no, not you," said Chris.
"Yeah me! Where's Haley?"
"Why don't you just go home. She left you, get over it, she's over it."
"Haley loves me, not you!"
"Then why is she here?"
"Because of the music, I know that now."
"Yeah, well your too late, she's mine now. Just do yourself a favor and go home."
"No, I don't believe you, she would never be with you. I have no intention of leaving without Haley."
"So you're going to make her give up her dream, so she can come home and hold your hand. Great."
A man comes up behind Chris, "Hey John, get Haley."
"I can't, she's not here. I called her limo for her. She said she was tired and wanted to go home. She's back at the Hilton by now."
"Oh okay, thanks," said Chris, "Nathan, I'll tell her to call you, but you have to go home. I mean you did tell her you were through!"
"She told you?"
"Yeah, why wouldn't she, I told you she was mine now. Your such an idiot, I mean why do you think she left?"
"To pursue her music career."
"Yeah, if that's what you want to believe, go ahead. But we both know she left to be with me."
Nathan reached back and punched Chris right in the face. He hit him so hard that Chris' head snapped back as he fell to the ground, unconscious. Nathan looked around, only to find no one else there. He walked over to check on Chris. He picked up Chris and walked him over behind the bus.
20 minutes later…
Nathan read the number on the front of the concert hall. He pulled out his cell phone, and dialed the number, "Hello, this is a courtesy call, Chris is behind the tour bus. He needs a big Band-Aid and some ice." He said hanging up, turning his cell phone off and walking away.
He glanced back at Chris; he secretly wanted a camera crew to find Chris. He used his cell phone again, and called the local news station. 'That will teach him not to mess with another man's wife.'
Maybe I should just go home. I mean I told Haley that if she left, we were through, and she left anyway. Maybe my biggest fear is correct. Haley did leave to be with Chris.
Moreover, what did that man John say, ' Ms. James said she wanted to go home and get some sleep,' home? She's calling her hotel room home now?
Then again, what do I have to offer her? I am garage-cleaner, barely able to make ends meet. The Hilton probably makes my apartment look like a cardboard box.
Haley is happy, who cares if I'm not? I'm going home.
Nathan gets on the bus, 'Goodbye Hales! I will love you forever.'
Will they get back to each other? On the other hand, will they be torn apart forever? Moreover, who hired Chris? You're all going to flip when you find out. And some will get mad, but that can't be helped. Sorry in advane to those people.
Reviews are appreciated!
Thanks in advance.
