Chapter 8

Haley layed on her bed, looking up at the ceiling as talked to Brooke on the phone, she had just got done explaining to her about how she met Nathan. Her room was pitch black except for the moonlight that was shining in from her window. She couldn't help but smile to her self at the thought of her and Nathan. "Nathan. Oh what a beautiful name." she thought.

Brooke smiled over the phone, "Haley, oh my god! You lucky whore! Haha, I told you that he wanted you...Wait does he even know that your the one from we were cruising around, or what?"

"Actually, no. He doesn't kno-"

Brooke cut in, "Well why not? Are you going to tell him?" Haley rolled her eyes over the phone. "I heard that!"

Well of course Haley was going to tell him, she just wanted to wait for the right moment..Yeah that sounds totally lame. The right moment. If you really think about it, is there a right moment for anything? If there was a right moment, what if is something else is the right moment..How many right moments can a person possibly have? The world will never know...

Haley made a confused look on her face, "Heard what?"

"Haley James don't you dare play dumb, I know you just rolled your eyes at me!"

Haley laughed, how did she know these things? "I did not."

"Ugh, yeah you did." Brooke retorted. "But anyways, are you going to tell him or not?"

"Well der Brookie," Haley began, "Of course I am going to tell him. Why wouldn't I tell him? Besides, he said that he knew me from somewhere, so I don't think he is that dumb to where he can't put two and two together."

"Well maybe he is," Brooke laughed and Haley joined in too. "You never know how dumb people can be at times."

It was true. Once Haley and Brooke went through McDonalds to get something to eat and they totally forgot to stop at thing to order what they wanted. They just drove on through. Once they got up to window, Haley realized they forgot to order. They both laughed so hard, that they were crying. They ended up having to drive around again to order their food.

Haley smiled. "True dat, true dat...Crap!" Haley yelled. "I have no clue what to freakin' wear! Brooke you so have to help me on this one!"

Brooke laughed, "Just relax chick. You know I'll help you, besides, isn't that what best friends are for?"

"Well der! Who else would I go through everything with?" Haley asked. "Certainly not my parents."

Brooke nodded, "Can you imagine actually having to experience everything with them?"

"Ugh, yeah I don't even want to begin to think about that."

"Yeah, me neither," Brooke replied. Then it hit her, "JAKE!" Brooke yelled.

Haley screamed, "Where in the hell did that come from? You scared the shit out of me!"

"Eww don't even want to think about that either," Brooke stated, "Hales, Jake was spilling his feelings out for you and you just ran."

Haley sat up in bed. She totally had forgot all about that. She started to feel bad. Jake was a nice guy and all, but not for her. Haley started to think about how she could not face him at school. She didn't want to see his sad face everytime she looked at him. The guilt was just too much for her. Then a thought came to her.

"Brooooke," Haley paused.

"Yeah," Brooke asked.

Haley began, "You know I love you and that I'd do anything for you...Well almost anything for you, right?"

"I love you too...Yeah I know that and I'd do that same for you too. What are you getting at?" Brooke asked.

Haley waited a second before she spoke, "I need you to do this really huge favor for me."

Brooke rolled her eyes, "Damn it Hales, just spill the beans already!"

"Okie dokie...Go out with Jake for me, please?" Haley said as fast as she possibly could.

Brooke's eyes lit up as she smiled to her self. Brooke has had a crush on Jake as long as she could remember. Haley didn't know that because there are just somethings that you just keep to yourself. It hurt her that Haley hurt him like that, but at the same time it made her thrilled that Haley turned him down. Brooke loved the idea but she wasn't sure if she could do that. Brooke and Jake. Oh, how she loved the thought of that.

"Hales, he might think that the only reason I am doing that is because of you," Brooke replied.

Haley shoke her head, "No he won't, but will you please go out with him? I can't stand seeing him like this."

Brooke took a deep breath, "Okay I will."

Deep inside, Brooke was thrilled with this. She only hoped Jake felt the same way about her.
