A/N: Well, this is it; we've come to the final chapter! Thank you to everyone who read the story, especially to those who reviewed. It's been so much fun! This was my first OTH fan fiction, but I've got loads more ideas which I will start writing now that this is finished. But, enough from me, you're here to read the end of the story and here it is. Enjoy!

Chapter Eleven

Haley felt the heat of the morning sun on her face, slowly forcing her to open her eyes. The sun's rays were peeking in between the closed blinds of her window, throwing a harsh light on her bedroom. Sighing, she rolled over to escape the glare and found the view on the other side of her bed much more attractive. Nathan was still asleep, lying on his stomach with his face turned towards Haley. She smiled and simply watched him for a few moments; she wanted to reach out and ruffle his hair, but he looked so peaceful that she was reluctant to wake him. Unfortunately, the blaring sound from her alarm clock did it for her.

Haley reached behind her and quickly turned the alarm off, but Nathan had already gotten up. From his side of the bed he gave her a lazy smile as he stretched. "And here I was hoping to be woken up with a kiss."

Haley leaned over to him. "You mean like this?" She gave him a quick peck on the side of his mouth.

He smirked at her. "Actually, I was thinking more like this." He pulled her against him and covered her lips with his.

When they finally broke apart, Haley grinned up at him. "Good morning."

Nathan grinned back. "Good morning." He was about to kiss her again, but she suddenly pulled away from him and moved to sit up. "Where are you going?"

"The alarm clock rang; it's time to get up."

"Hales, it's Sunday! It's too early to get up."

"But I get up at this time everyday," she said.

"But you don't even have work today!" Nathan protested, and pulled her back into his arms.

"Nathan!"

"Come on, let's sleep in. It's Sunday."

Haley was having a hard time bringing herself to argue with his pouting face, but she just replied, "Nathan you sleep in everyday."

Nathan frowned, but knew that this was true. "Okay, then I have a proposition for you." He told her, raising his eyebrow.

"Which is?" She kept her voice in check, but, in truth, she was excited by this statement.

"We can have a deal. I'll get up early on weekdays if you agree to stay late in bed on weekends."

"And will you actually wake up?"

"Yes, I will. Then I could maybe drive you and the kids to work and school in the mornings. I could always sleep when I come back, before picking you up."

"You would do that?"

"Yeah. I'm going to be living with you now, remember? Plus, it means I get to spend more time with you."

Haley's face lit up with happiness at his words. She didn't know how to reply so she just cupped his face in her hands and kissed him thoroughly.

"I guess that's a yes, then?" Nathan asked.

"Yep," Haley said in agreement, but then confused Nathan by sitting back up again.

"Hey, I thought we just agreed to stay in bed?"

"Yeah, I was just going to set the alarm. How long do you want to stay in bed for?"

Nathan looked incredulously at her and then started laughing. "Haley! The whole point of sleeping in means that you don't set your alarm, you just get up late." Without allowing her time to say anything, he wrapped his arms around her waist.

Haley gave in and snuggled her head into his chest, draping her arm across his chest. Nathan held her tightly, reveling in the feel of her body against his. Soon, his breathing evened out, but despite his comfortable position he couldn't go back to sleep. This was because Haley kept fidgeting. "Hales?"

"I think I should brush my teeth."

"Haley!"

"It feels weird because I'm used to getting up and washing at this time in the morning," she explained. "I'll just brush my teeth and come back to bed."

"If you brush your teeth, then you'll go have a shower and get dressed and make breakfast!"

"No, I promise I'll only brush my teeth, and then come straight back to bed."

"Haley," Nathan whined, but was interrupted by the sound of his cell phone. He turned his head to his right to look for his phone, and Haley took advantage of this by breaking free from his embrace.

"I'll be right back I promise," she said, and kissed his cheek.

Nathan frowned, but turned around as she looked for clothes, and reached for his jeans where they had been discarded on the floor last night. Pulling his phone out of the front pocket, he checked the caller ID before answering. "Hey, Luke, what's up?"

"Nathan! I've been calling your apartment for, like, ten minutes now; where are you? And since when do you go out this early?"

"I'm at Haley's."

"Aah." Despite the fact that he couldn't see him, Nathan knew that Lucas was currently smirking.

"Shut up."

"Hey! That's not a very nice thing to say to your brother who was just calling because he was worried about you."

"I take it you heard about last night."

"Uncle Keith told me. I had no idea Dad was so mad about you not taking the job."

"Yeah, well, you know what he's like. He has to get his own way."

"Well, Mum totally blew a fuse. I still don't think she's managed to convince him to give let you keep the apartment yet though. I'm sure she will, but just in case, you know there's always room for you at my place."

"Thanks, Luke. I really appreciate it, but that won't be necessary. Haley asked me to move in with her."

"Whoa. You guys became a couple two days ago and now you're moving in? That's kind of fast."

"Said the guy who proposed in less than two weeks?"

"Touché," Lucas laughed. "So are you gonna be ok?"

Nathan saw Haley coming back into the room just dressed in the white shirt he had worn last night and smiled. "I'm going to be great. Hey, man, thanks for checking up on me, but can I call you back?"

"Sure. You can't keep Haley waiting. Talk to you later."

"Bye." Switching his phone off, Nathan placed it on the dresser next to him, before returning his gaze to Haley. She was leaning by the bedroom door. When she noticed him looking at her, she smiled back.

"Who phoned?"

"Lucas; he just wanted to know if everything was ok. Did you brush your teeth?"

"Yep," she said, as she slowly made her way back to the bed.

"Nice outfit, by the way."

Haley blushed and stopped in her tracks. "It was just there, and I couldn't find my clothes, if you –"

"Haley! I like you in my clothes."

"Really?"

"Yeah. You look hot in them. - Not that you don't look hot in other stuff. – Actually, you look pretty hot when you're not wearing anything too, so, well…" Nathan stopped himself when he realized he was babbling much like Haley usually did. "You know what I mean."

"I think I do." Haley tried to control the smile on her face. Instead of getting back into her side of the bed, she moved so she was standing in front of Nathan, and then crawled on top of him.

He pulled her face to his, intending the kiss to be short and sweet, before they went back to bed. However, when he moved his head to the side, she kept kissing him, trailing kisses down his jaw and neck. The bed sheet had gotten bunched up around his waist, so she placed butterfly kisses all over his chest. "Haley," he groaned.

"Yes?" she asked innocently.

"Are you planning on letting me sleep this morning?"

She pouted at him. "I thought we agreed to just stay in bed. There are other things we could do aside from sleep. Unless you really want to?"

He smirked down at her as she started to grin. She knew had won this argument. Not that he was complaining.

……………

Some time later…

Nathan pulled his white t-shirt over his head and turned to face Haley. She too had just finished dressing, and they were about to leave her bedroom (at last). She smiled at him before they both left the room and reached the kitchen, where they were surprised to see Michael and Annie already sitting around the worktop. "Since when have you been up?" Haley asked.

"We woke up a while ago, but we thought you were still sleeping so we didn't come in," Annie explained.

"Nathan, how come you were in Mummy's room? When did you come in?" Michael inquired.

"Oh…er…well…" Haley began.

"I came in early. I had to…discuss something with your mother," Nathan replied.

"What did you have to discuss?"

"Just grown up stuff," Haley jumped in. Before Michael could ask anymore questions, she continued, "So, Nathan and I have something to tell you."

"But, you've already told us you're dating," Annie said.

"This is something else."

"Is it a good or a bad something?"

"Well, we hope you'll think its good," Nathan told her.

"Nathan is going to be living with us from now on."

When they didn't say anything, Nathan asked, "Is that okay?"

"Cool!" Michael nodded. "It's hard being the only man of the house."

Haley and Nathan laughed, and Annie got out of her seat and ran up to hug Nathan. "I'm glad you're going to be staying with us."

"Me too," he smiled.

Feeling happier than she could remember, Haley kissed Nathan, Annie and Michael each on the cheek in turn and began to make breakfast. As the children sat down at the worktop, Haley went to the counter and started pulling out some spoons from the drawer. Suddenly, she felt Nathan come up behind her, and link his arms around her stomach. "Need any help?" he whispered in her ear.

"Do you think you could get a couple of glasses for me?"

"Sure." He moved away from her and took down four glasses from the upper shelf. He proceeded to take some juice from the fridge and started pouring it out. Haley couldn't help but grin as Nathan helped her prepare breakfast. The two kept stealing glances at her, and every so often their eyes would meet, causing her face to light up even more. She loved the way Nathan looked with his disheveled hair, and knew that if her children weren't in the room with them…well, she'd just have to save those thoughts for later that night.

Haley looked back over her shoulder to check on Michael and Annie and was disappointed to see that they seemed to be arguing. "Hey, what are you two fighting about now?"

"We're not fighting; I was just telling Michael that he was wrong when he said the wish I made on the shooting star on Friday wouldn't come true," Annie told them.

"Why; did your wish come true?" Nathan asked as he gave the children their juice.

"Half of it did, so that means the other half will come true soon."

"Well, what did you wish for?" Haley questioned.

"For you and Nathan to get together."

Haley felt herself blush, and looked over at Nathan who simply grinned down at Annie and ruffled her hair. He noticed Haley's embarrassment, so he walked back over to her and placed a light kiss on her forehead. "Okay, I had no idea about that," she said quietly.

"Hey, it's okay. It's actually kind of funny. I guess Annie was smarter than us, huh?"

"Yeah." Haley felt her grin start back up again, so she forced herself to look away from Nathan, knowing that otherwise she would never finish breakfast. A few minutes later, however, she remembered something. "Annie?"

"Yes, Mummy?"

"What was the other thing you wished for?"

"A baby sister!"
