Chapter 10

Haley layed in her bed as she looked over at her alarm clock, it read 3 AM. Haley couldn't help but smile to her self as she looked up at the ceiling, while Brooke layed next to her, snoring. Haley immediately got lost in her own thoughts. Tonight was perfect, absolutely perfect...

Nathan and Haley were sitting down, eating dinner at the local restaurant. They had just got done ordering their dinner.

Nathan cocked an eye brow, "Mac and Cheese?"

Hale let out a short laugh, "What?"

"You couldn't be into lobster?" Nathan asked Haley as he was about to take a sip of his water.

Haley rolled her eyes, "Dude, don't you know?" Nathan looked at her puzzled, "Macaroni and cheese is the food of the Gods...Everyone knows that."

"Yeah," Nathan smirked, "If the Gods are five year olds."

"Hey!" Haley put her hand over her chest, like she was hurt.

Nathan laughed, "Come on, you know it's true but, if you like your mac and cheese, then that is fine by me," Nathan paused, "Whatever floats your boat."

"I love my mac and cheese, thank ya very much." Nathan just smiled at Haley.

"Well," Nathan began, "Since this is our first date..I think we should get to know each other while we wait on our food."

Haley nodded, "Okay, what do you have in mind?"

"Okay, I'll ask you a question, you answer it and then ask me a question."

Haley shrugged, "'Kay, doesn't that hard."

Nathan nodded, "Well then, you go first."

"Why do I have to go first?" Haley asked.

"Ladies first," Nathan simply replied as a smirk spread across his mouth.

Haley cocked an eye brow, "That may be true in some occasions, I guess, but not in this one," Haley smiled sweetly, "Besides this was your idea, so you go first."

"Exactly, it was MY idea, so you should start." Nathan said as he took another sip of his water.

"Actually no, because it was YOUR idea, you have to start. Everyone knows that." Haley retorted.

Nathan layed back in his chair, "Do you ever give up?"

"Ha! I knew you would see it my way!" Nathan just got what she was talking about, "And it depends whether or not I give up. So, what's your favorite color?"

Nathan stuck his tongue out at her. "No fair, you cheated!"

Smiling, Haley shook her head, "Nathan you have to play by the rules, remember you made them up?"

"Okay fine, black is my favorite colors, yours?"

Haley sat there for a second, to think about it. "Well I guess mine is black and pink. Are you a reader?"

"Actually, I am, you?"

Haley rolled her eyes, "Nathan it would be waay funner if you would

ask your own questions instead of stealing mine," Haley said as she battered her eye lashes.

Nathan let out a laugh, "Okay, fine but wanna know a secret? You have to promise not to laugh and not tell a soul?" Haley nodded as she smiled, eager to know the so called 'secret'. "Currently, I am into the Harry Potters serious, well I have been for years, every since the first book came out." Nathan said in a very serious tone.

Haley couldn't help but burst into laughter. "Are you serious? Nathan Scott, a Harry Potter fan? How cute is that!" Haley said a she continued to laugh.

"Hey now! You promised you wouldn't laugh!"

"Calm down Killer!" Haley said as she started to let her laughter cool down, "Besides do you wanna know a secret?" Nathan shrugged. "I am into the Harry Potter series too!"

Nathan sat up in his chair after hearing that. He was very into the series. "Oh my god! I can't wait for the 7th book to come out and I heard that two of the main characters are going to die." Nathan said all serious like as Haley laughed. "What?" Nathan asked as he cocked an eye brow, wondering what was so funny.

"You do realize that you sound like a girl?"

Nathan scoffed, "I do not...Besides I was just simply sayin'..."

"Who would've thought that you, a Harry Potter fan," Haley began, "So what else do you have hidden, Mr. Hotshot."

Haley laughed at the memory. She is a very big Harry Potter fan as well, but Nathan did not look like the type to be interested in Harry Potter, at all. Oh, but she was wrong. Haley learned that night that not everyone is as they seem, and that you should not judge a book by it's cover. She also learned that she could be her self around him without getting shy and nervous.

Haley let a breath of air as she continued to smile to her self at the thought of Nathan. "Ugh! I am sprung, already..This can't be happening Hales! Yeah, it so cannot be love already, I haven't even known him that long! It's lust, that's it...Lust..." Haley said she continued to get lost in her thoughts.

Nathan looked down at the watch around his wrist, he sighed. "Well, we still have about 35 minutes until the movies starts." Nathan said as him and Haley walked down the street of Tree Hill, they had just came out of the restaurant.

"Oh, okay that's fine...Thanks Nate, for the dinner and the night so far." Haley smiled as she looked down shyly. Nathan had his hand behind her back as he guided her down the street.

"No prob," Nathan smirked, "But it really is a pleasure to me," Nathan said as he glanced over at Haley. "So what do you want to do?"

Haley looked down the street, realizing just the place they could go. "The docks! Let's go to the docks!" Haley jumped up cheerfully as she come to face Nathan.

Nathan couldn't help but laugh at her enthusiasm. "Okay, but why the docks?" The docks, of all places they could go...

"Because I love going down to the docks. That's where I go when I need some time to myself, besides it's absolutely beautiful down there." Nathan nodded and Haley grabbed Nathan's hand to lead him down to the docks.

Nathan and Haley made their way down to the docks. Haley hopped onto the railing to sit. Nathan on the other hand, walked up to Haley and instead of sitting next to her, he grabbed her hands and stood directly in front of her. Nathan had became so close to Haley that their faces were only an inch away. Haley looked into his eyes, unable to break away. Nathan cupped her face and Haley let out a nervous laugh as their lips became closer and closer..
