Now do you guys want a really really sad ending? A really sad ending? A sad ending? Or a happy ending?

OK please tell me!

On with the story….

Last Time!

"Sir, may I help you?"

"I'm her to meet a reporter?"

"Ahh yes. James is at the back table. Just go on back."

Í thought his name was Harry.' Nate got back to the table and saw a pair long tan legs sticking out in the aisle.

"-Er- hello?" the woman didn't look up. "I'm Nathan Scott. Are you the reporter?" Then the woman looked up, he saw tears in her warm brown eyes.

"Hello Nathan," she said just above a whisper.

"Haley?" He whispered back in shock, as he fell into the chair.

Now back to the story

"Haley? Wh-what are you doing here? LA? You left! We looked…you and Brooke! And pizza hut! And Hales how could you?" Nathan almost yelled. It was a good thing that Haley asked for the room in the back so no one would notice their fight.

"Nathan wait, this isn't fair!"

"Like hell it is! You and Brooke! You left us! Why Haley? I know Brooke was pregnant, Lucas watched the show! We know about Jordan and Allisa! But you didn't have to leave us! Luke would have helped! And why did you leave Haley? Huh? Why? Our fucking lives were ripped from us when you two left! But why did you?"

Haley was sure how to respond. She narrowed her honey brown eyes into slits and glared at him. "You Nathan. I left because of you and your father! Brooke left because of Lucas and Dan too! He's more the reason we left! No stop yelling at me!"

Nathan looked hurt, anger, and oddly enough happy. "Fine."

"I need to do this interview, it'll be fast then you can ask questions, ok?" She asked trying to keep her composure.

"Look Hales-"

"No Nathan, this is my job. It's what put the roof over our heads when we first got here, it's what paid the bills when Brooke couldn't work, it's what keep Lynnette from dieing when is contracted pneumonia when she was three! This job kept the family, my family together for seven years! Do not mess this up for me Nathan! I didn't mess up UCLA for you, or basketball, or your whole life!" A single tear spilled down her cheek.

"You weren't there for that," he mumbled under is breath, using all his inner strength to no reach out and wipe away the pearly tear..

Haley saw his lips moving but heard nothing. "What Nathan?"

"Huh?" he asked sounding like he just entered the conversation.

"What did you just say?" She said a little demandingly.

"Damn it Hales! You weren't there! You weren't there for anything! Yea I went to UCLA! But I went there to get away from Tree Hill! I couldn't stay there it reminded me too much of you! Basketball, you weren't there when I was drafted to the Lakers! But you did mess up my life! I would sit at home every day waiting for you to call! I wanted to hear your voice! I wanted to see you laugh, hell I even wanted to see the face that you got when you were mad!" He yelled his face turning redder by the second, and his eyes threaten to betray him and spill translucent tears.

"I was there…" Haley said in a minute voice.

"For what Haley? For what?"

"I was at the draft, I even talked to you."

"No you-"

"Do you remember the reporter that had the short dirty blonde hair and purple eyes? The one that wore the deep purple suit and the brown shoes? I even stepped on your foot accidentally!" Her eyes threatened to leak more.

"That was you?" He said astonished.

"Nathan let me finish. I would have wrecked you life if I had stayed in Tree Hill. You and Luke wouldn't be playing basketball for the pros! I mean seriously! Nathan we left because we wanted to. We saved your futures by leaving!" By this point her eyes her glazed over and watery.

Nathan looked at her with a spurious look. Haley continued, "Nathan let me ask you a few questions ok, I know almost everything that Harry wanted to be asked. So three questions, is there a woman in you life? What made you choose the Lakers over the other teams? And why did the Scott Brothers even come out here?" She asked him as professionally as she could.

"No. They have a great record, and I as well as Lucas could succeed. LA was the farthest I could get from Tree Hill, and all the memories there," the last phrase he said a little bitterly.

"The LA Times thanks you for your time," she said in a small voice and began to get up and leave.

"Lynnette," he whispered.

Haley stopped mid-stride. "W-what?"

"Lynnette," he repeated a little louder. She turned to face him.

"Yes it's a pretty name."

"No you said that the job saved Lynnette when she was two."

"Yes the job did save her."

"Who is she Hales?"

Haley swallowed a gulp of air and stared him in the eye. "Your daughter."

She then turned around and left, leaving poor Nate alone once again. Not letting him notice the tears that were running down her cheeks.
