Chapter 6: You'll be in my heart, No matter what they say…
In Nathan and Lucas's apartment…
"What do you think happened?" Brooke asked Lucas.
"Not sure, I'm worried about her, though," Lucas answered.
"Don't. She's in good hands," Brooke said smiling.
Lucas paused, and looked at Brooke.
"Brooke, about the kiss…" Lucas started.
"Yeah…I know we were going to talk to Nathan, but.." Brooke paused, "I'm starting to have second thoughts."
Lucas looked at Brooke, "Why?"
"He's dealing with a lot right now…" Brooke started, "With Haley and all..Come on Luke, think of Haley."
"Whatever Brooke," Lucas said slamming the door in the apartment, leaving Brooke to reminisce the night of the bar.
Flashback
Brooke pulled away after a few minutes, "Luke…"
"I can't lie, Brooke…I have feelings for you," Lucas started.
"Lucas, I do too…but you can't play with my heart like that..You want to be with me, but you're scared of Nate…Come on Lucas…either grow up or fess up,"
"Fess up? To who?" Lucas questioned.
"My brother," Brooke replied.
Lucas nodded his head, "We'll tell him tonight."
End Flashback
" A month!" Peyton exclaimed.
Jake laughed, "We've been through this how many times, Peyt…A month."
"How are we going to plan a wedding in a month?" Peyton exclaimed, but happily.
"Fast?" Jake replied.
Nathan woke up looking at Haley, who was obviously very upset, even in her sleep. She was tossing and turning, but thankfully she didn't have tears coming out of her eyes. Nathan jumped when he heard the phone ring, causing Haley to bounce right up, and causing the two of them to start laughing.
"Hello?" Haley asked.
"Hales?"
"Taylor." Haley said.
Brooke walked into her apartment, seeing her roommate throwing things around the living room and her brother trying to calm her down.
"Haley, it's okay that you're upset," she heard Nathan yell.
"I'm not upset!" Haley argued back, picking up another picture frame and throwing it.
"What happened?" Brooke asked.
"Taylor called," Nathan told his little-sister, who had looked like she'd been crying, "Are you okay?"
"Oh, yeah…allergies," Brooke said thankful she didn have bad allergies.
Nathan smiled knowingly, "Go take a nap."
"Yeah, that's what I'm doing," Brooke said hugging her brother.
Nathan looked from his sister to his best friend, noticing she had quieted down. Haley was staring at a picture, and started smiling.
"Haley?" Nathan said looking towards his best friend and being confused at why his best friend was all of a sudden smiling.
"Remember this?" Haley said shoving the picture into Nathan's hand.
Nathan laughed, "Yeah…"
The picture was of Haley and Nathan their high school prom. Nathan and Haley went together, figuring it would be more fun, and it was.
"That night was fun," Nathan said.
Haley smiled, "Yeah it was."
"You looked hot!" Nathan said making Haley laugh.
"Sorry Scott, your kind words don't cause me to blush," Haley said.
Nathan smiled at Haley as Haley looked toward the clock, "You wanna come?" Haley asked Nathan.
"Did you really think I was going to leave you there with them?" Nathan asked back.
Nathan and Haley walked into Karen's Café, waving to Lucas's parents Keith and Karen Roe, and walking over to the table with Taylor and Chris.
Haley slid in the booth, with Nathan right next to her.
"Haley," Taylor started, "I'm sorry."
Haley laughed and rolled her eyes.
"I didn't mean for it to happen, it just…"
"Did?" Haley asked.
"Yeah," Taylor said.
An awkward silence filled the table, and none other than the icebreaker Chris Keller broke the tension.
"You were always with Nathan anyway, how do I know you didn't cheat on me," Chris started, "I mean it seems like you already have moved on."
Haley rolled her eyes at Chris and got up, "I don't have to deal with this. Don't ever contact me again."

"Okay, enough," Peyton said cutting him off, laughing. "I'm out..I gotta go meet the florist for clarification…..You know something?" she asked Nathan and Haley.
"What?" Haley said looking up to Peyton.
"I'm shocked the two of you haven't hooked up," Peyton said.
"Random," Nathan said sitting in Peyton's chair.
"I'm serious, I always thought the two of you would hook up and get married when we were younger," Peyton said.
"Me and Nate hooking up is like…him being straight," Haley said laughing.
"Exactly…Hey!" Nathan said taking Haley's cookie.
"Hey! What did you do that for?" Haley argued.
"You said I was gay!" Nathan said.
"Fine, but I hope you know I spit on that cookie, and if you can't tell smartass it's already bitten out of," Haley said getting up.
"Yum," Nathan said taking a bite out of the cookie.
"Nate, I was serious I spit on that," Haley said hitting him in the back of his head.
"Ouch, and gross!" Nathan said, then shrugged his shoulders and took another bite.
Haley looked on disgustedly, and Peyton just smiled, "Let me know when the two of you get married," and walked out.
Haley and Nathan looked after her, thinking about what Peyton had just said.
