The next day at the café I received a surprise visitor, Nathan. He sat down at a table and stared out the window. It was kind of freaky, but seeing him made my heart skip a beat. "Hey Nate," I called over to him. He looked over and smiled, then set his glare back towards the window. I walked over to see what was going on with him. Kiley decided that today was the day she wanted to see Jenny, so I wasn't worried about them running into one another. "What's going on?"

"Nothing. Being here just reminds me of something." I sucked in a deep breath, hoping and praying. "I mean do you believe in having two lives?" He looked into my eyes.

"Like reincarnation?"

"No," He said laughing. "Like I've been a different person for the last five years, and when I walked back into town I felt like this is where I needed to be. Like there is another life that I had forgotten about. You know," I stared at him not able to speak. "I know I'm talking crazy." He laughed and placed his hand on mine. "Hales, I missed you so much."

"I missed you too." I whispered.

"No, like I miss you more than a friend is supposed to miss another friend."

"Nathan, I have to tell you something. I might be a shock."

"You can tell me anything." His bright blue eyes filled with concern and I knew that I needed to tell him the truth.

"Nathan, I didn't know you were coming to day," Deb said stepping through the door.

"Yeah, I just wanted to see Hales." He said to her, he stood and walked over to hug his mother. "She was just about to tell me something. Go ahead." He turned back to me.

"HALEY!" We both looked at her strangely. "Can I steal him for like five mins? I need him to fix something for me." She grabbed his hand and dragged him towards the kitchen. He sadly smiled at me and disappeared in the back.

I know I shouldn't have but I snuck back to listen to their conversation. I just couldn't help myself. "Nathan, I think the sink is clogged. You start to work on that and I'll fix you a cup of coffee." He agreed and went to work on the stink, I glanced back in time to notice her putting something in the coffee. It was probably just sugar, so I slapped myself and walked away. But Deb's words caught my attention. "Baby, drink up."

"Mom, what's in the coffee?"

"Something new that we are trying out. What do you think?"

"Yum. It's good. But I should really find out what Hales wanted."

"Nathan, you know she talks about you all the time."

"Really?" He sounded surprised, and my mouth dropped.

"I think she really loves you." I smiled, hoping that Deb would tell the truth. "I think its scary, you shouldn't tease her as much as you have. Just stay away."

"Your probably right. This coffee was good. I'm going to go hang out with dad." He stepped out of the kitchen, and noticed me again.

"Nathan," I breathed out.

"Sinks all better. I'll see you later."

"But I thought we were going to talk."

"No, those are problems you have to work on yourself."

"But Nathan!"

"Hales, I miss you." He said and walked out of the door. Deb was smiling in the doorway.

"Isn't it great to have him back Haley?" She said before I turned around.

"What in the hell was that Deb?" I accused her.

"Huh?" She said.

"Haley talks about you all the time, just stay away from her? What's wrong with you?" She stepped towards me and I took a few steps back.

"Haley, I thought we agreed."

"We agreed to not tell him right away. We did not agree to make me look like a stalker, and I will decide when its best to tell my husband the truth. I've gotta go."

"But the café, where are you going?" She called but I was already out the door. I had to tell Lucas. We needed to do something.

"Lucas!" I said breathlessly walking into the school gym. He glanced towards me worriedly, and told his players to take a break.

"Is it Brooke?" He asked. I shook my head no. "What happened?"

"Deb told Nathan I was stalking him and she drugged him with something."

"Your over reacting Hales. Tell me exactly what happened." Lucas was always my calming half. He made me see sides of things I wouldn't have seen before. I told him the whole story and waited for his response. "Haley, I'm going to get Nathan to stay with me for a while. I think Deb and Dan are up to something, but I don't know what." I nodded as I listened to him. "We'll figure out what's going on."

"Thanks Luke. I don't know what I would do without you."

"Go pick up your baby girl and take her out, do something fun." He kissed my forehead and began coaching again.
