Chapter 16
"What are you talking about Hales?" Brooke asked confused.
"He's here." Haley said causing everyone to look where she was looking to find Derek.
"I'm gonna kick is $$!" Lucas said jumping up and going over to Derek only to be beaten by Brooke, who punched Derek in the nose.
"No please stay with me." Haley said pulling Nathan back down since he was trying to go attack Derek.
"Ok Hales." he replied pulling her into his arms.
"Why is he here?" Haley cried.
"I don't know Hales, but why don't we..." Nathan started but was cut off by Derek's screaming voice.
"Get the hell off me! I want to talk to Haley."
"Nate, I don't want to talk to him, I don't want to even see him." Haley said scared.
"Come on, lets get out of here." Nathan said getting up and pulling Haley with him towards his car.
The entire ride was silent, except for the sounds of Haley's sobs. When the car stopped Haley looked up and found herself at the Scott beach house.
"I figured you wouldn't want to go to your house since Derek knows where you live." Nathan said.
"Why did he have to come back?" Haley cried. "Everything was perfect, I was happy and now he had to come back."
"I don't know Hales, but what I do know is I'll never let him hurt you again." Nathan said pulling her into his arms.
"Nat e what am I gonna do?"
"I don't know Hales but it seems like he wants to talk to you."
"But I don't want to. I just want him to leave me alone."
"I know you do Hales but you'll have to talk to him in order to get him to leave you alone."
Haley knew that what Nathan was saying was try, but she didn't want to, at least not now.
"Why did you come back?" Brooke asked Derek furiously.
"I need to tell her why I left."
"She's happy now, so just leave her the hell alone!" Brooke said before she kneed him in the balls and walked off.
The next day Haley woke up with Nathan's arms wrapped around he waist. She knew they had school today but she didn't feel like going.
"Nate wake up, you have school today." Haley said.
"You gave school to Hales." Nathan said confused.
"I know but I just done feel like going."
"Ok, I'll take you home." Nathan said getting up bringing Haley up along with him.
"I'll stop by after school." Nathan said as he pulled up in front of Haley's house.
"Ok I'll ee you after school." Haley said kissing his cheek.
After saying goodbye to Nathan, Haley went up to her room and fell asleep. A few hours later she woke up to the sound of the doorbell. Haley got up and found Derek at the door. "Hi Haley." he said once she opened the door.
"Derek what do you want? How did you know I was here?" Haley asked confused.
"I stopped by at Tree Hill High and saw that you weren't there so I came here."
"So you're stalking me now?"
"No I... we need to talk.."
"Yea we do. Come on in." Haley sighed letting him in. Knowing she had to do this.
They walked into the living room and sat in silence for a few minutes until Haley broke it
"Why?" Haley asked. "Why sis you leave me? Why didn't you say anything to me?"
Derek was about to answer when Haley started to talk again.
"Do you know how much you hurt me? I was miserable for months, I cried myself to sleep thinking that I wasn't pretty enough or that I was to fat or that you didn't love me. I didn't leave my house for anything I just went to school and thank god I only had a month left of school because I couldn't put up with everyone. I put on this act and everyone thought I was ok, but I wasn't. I was miserable. Brooke and Peyton tried to help me but nothing the did made any of it any better. And then Brooke dragged me to this party where I met Nathan. He actually made me happy again. I've been happy for a while, ever since I met Nate, but now you had to come back. I was happy, I am happy with Nathan and you had to ruin it."
"Haley I'm sorry I did all that to you. I never wanted to hurt you, but anyway I knew I would end up hurting you. I got scared because I fell in love with you in such a short period of time, and then I...I ended up meeting this girl." he said making Haley cry more than she already was.
"So you left because you got scared or because you cheated on me?" Haley said getting angry.
"I did love you Hales at some point but then I met victoria."
"Ya know what makes me feel so much better!" she said sarcastically.
"I'm..."
"Don't even say your sorry, I've heard enough, I want you to leave."
"Haley..."
"I said I want you to leave!"
