Chapter Three: Reality Of It.
"Did you see him?" Brooke asked Peyton as she jumped on Peyton's bed.
"Yeah, he gave her "the stare", but then softened up." Peyton recalled form yesterday's events.
"And she-"
"Didn't do anything." Haley finished for Brooke, walking into Peyton's room.
"Haley we didn't mean it…like that." Peyton said, looking from her computer screen to Haley.
"No, no, it's okay." Haley said, looking down.
"So, you excited about the game next week Hales?" Brooke asked changing the subject.
"Yeah… I am." Haley admitted, now smiling. "You know that new guy Matt?"
"Yeah." Brooke and Peyton said together nodding their heads.
"Well, he's Felix and Anna's cousin." Haley said. "He said that Anna lost our number and wanted to call us, so I gave him our number." Haley paused, looking at Brooke, who had a face on that Haley could not read. " Sorry, I thought that would be alright."
"No, it's not that." Brooke said. " I thought you were going to out with Matt or something, that's all."
"Well, I am." Haley said uncomfortably, blushing a little. "But, I don't think it's going to anything long term, you know."
Brooke and Peyton exchanged looks, meaning…
I Not anything you and Nathan had anyways. /I
The game had finally cam around and the game was tied.
"Only one more minute left in the game ladies and gentlemen." Mouth said, updating the status of the game. He was commentating once again. "Coach Whitey has called a time-out."
Haley was doing an amazing job cheerleading. Plus, she was getting all kinds of looks from the other guys.
"Okay, one minute on the clock and it…starts!" Mouth said getting into the game. "Smith passes the ball to Lucas Scott…thirty seconds left…Lucas passes it to Nathan Scott…twenty seconds left…Nathan's blocked…ten seconds left…Lucas gets open…Nathan passes to Lucas…five seconds left…Scott for the win…"
As the ball soared through the air, everyone in the gym fell silent.
I Swish /I
" And he scores! Ravens win!"
The gym exploded with cheers and scream!
Haley jumped up and down and made a dash for Lucas. She ran right past Nathan, who thought that Haley was running to him. For the first time in months Nathan felt a huge sense of joy. As she ran past him, his heart sank, leaving him with a range if jealousy, anger and sadness. His eyes followed her as she jumped onto Lucas pulling him into a tight embrace and as Haley said something in his ear, he left something he never felt toward Lucas. It was an feeling of ripping Lucas off Haley and having her for himself.
Nathan hated feeling that way, especially since Haley had caused it. He jogged toward Rachel and pulled her into a long kiss. No, it didn't have any of the passion he and Haley once shared, but it was still one heck of a kiss.
Peyton and Brooke watched this "scene" from the sidelines.
"You, know. Eventually, they're going to end up together. Right?" asked Peyton with a smile on her face as she glaced from Nathan to Haley.
"Oh, yeah." Brooke answered.
