Brooke opened the door to go down to see Lucas, when she noticed the bag on the porch.
Brooke: Haley there's a bag out here for you!
Haley: Um...ok, Brooke I'll be out there in a sec.
Haley walked outside and stopped next to Brooke staring at the bag.
Brooke: Letters, now that's interesting (brooke raised her eyebrow in a half curious, half all knowing way) Now, I wonder who those could be from. A certain fellow?
Haley: (Furrow her eyebrows slightly) Yeah, probably and by the way, shut up Brooke (duffed her friend lightly on the shoulder.)
Brooke: Ow, what I was just inquiring. So let's see what they say!
Haley: Aren't you supposed to be meeting Lucas?
Brooke: He can wait, come on, come on Roommate, let's take them inside and open them up.
Haley:(Groan) Fine
Haley was secretly really excited to see what the letters said, but as much as she loved Brooke, she didn't really want her reading over her shoulder. Haley slowly walked into the apartment, with the bag in her hand, and Brooke followed, shutting the front door behind them. The Haley made a quick dash into the bathroom and locked herself in with the letters. Brooke banged on the door.
Brooke: (whining) Come on Haley, let me read them too!
Haley: Go see Lucas Brooke.
Brooke: Pleeeeeeeeeeaaaaassssse, Haley, the curiosity is killing me!
Haley: Nope, you can stay out there if you want, but you're time would be much better spent going to see Luke.
Silence from the other end. Haley sighed, Brooke mush have either left, or passed out(hehe)
Haley carefully pulled out a letter and opened it.
Dear Haley,
You left yesterday. I still can't believe you're gone. How could you just leave with Chris like that? I told you that if you left we were through, I didn't mean, but you still left anyway. How could you do that? You crushed my heart Haley!
I understand you wanting to go after your dreams, but why'd you have to go on the tour and leave me here behind? Why couldn't I have gone with you? Is it because you have feelings for Chris? Cause honestly Haley I can't find a reason why you wouldn't want me to go with you, except for you having feelings for Chris. If you do have feeling for Chris Haley, well then I guess we're done. Because you've basically left me for him already.
Can you at least give me a call when you get this letter and tell me how you feel? Because frankly Haley I'm confused and I'm not sure if I can do this anymore. I can't just sit around waiting and worrying about if you love me anymore. So please Haley, put me out of my misery and just say whatever you need to say.
Despite all of this, I do still love. I'm just not sure if I can still trust you anymore. Just call. We need to talk.
-Nathan
Haley put the letter down as tears stained her eyes. How could she hurt him so much and make him question her feelings? Let alone make him question his trust for her. Haley felt pain flush through her body. She got up and looked into the mirror. Her face was all red and her eyes were puffy and wet. She sighed and sunk back down against the bathroom door.
Nathan was back home sitting on his bed. After just sitting there for a few minutes. He reached into the box and pulled out the next letter. He carefully tore open the envelope and unfolded the paper.
Dear Nathan,
I pretty much just finished my first day of the tour. I didn't really sleep much last night, partly because I'm not used to sleeping on a tour bus, but mostly because I was up worrying about you. Worry if you still love me anymore and if you could ever forgive me. Nathan you have to know that my connection with Chris is purely musical. I have no feeling for him. The only person I could feel that way about is you. I love you so much and don't know what I'd do if I didn't have your love in my life.
Since we were on the tour bus all day driving, I spent the day trying to write a new song. It's about you, well basically all my songs are about you. Here it is, I wish I could be singing it to you, but here it is down on paper.
Honestly I didn't mean to cry so hard the heartache was pouring in like rain
I didn't mean to show I care
Honestly I didn't mean to laugh so loud but it just sounds so absurd to say that you want me
Say that you need me after everything you've done
Really truly I didn't mean to hurt you I just thought that maybe now
We'd have better luck the second time around
Its always better the second time I hear
Find me in the evening when your ready to dance
And I will take you to places where you never thought you'd have the chance to love
Love
Love is all we have
I will run myself in circles here without you
Please believe that I tried my best to forget you but the memories keep flooding back like tears
I didn't mean to fall in love
But sitting here waiting for this is torture
I'm so glad you're far away
Is that a terrible thing to say?
Well, I wonder if you're ok
Find me in the evening when your ready to dance
And I will take you to places where you never thought you'd have the chance to love
Love
Love is all we have
I will run myself in circles here without you
Oh, I would run myself in circles here without you
Oh I've tried and tried
And I can't hide from your love
Darlin' its too late to show me your intentions
You know we've got to find a way to get past all the implications, every situation
Every complication that we've come from
Love is all we have
I will run myself in circles here without you
Darlin' love, love
Love is all we have
I will run myself in circles here without you
(Song credited to Bethany Joy Lenz, called Honestly)
Nathan I love you so much. Please don't give up on us, because I don't think I'd be able to survive without you.
LOVE,
Haley
Nathan read the song over and over again about 10 times. Nathan began to remember why he loved Haley's music so much, why he loved her so much. Whatever small musical bond Haley had with Chris wasn't nearly as strong as the one she had with him. The one she had with him was not only musical, but also of trust and love, and that bond, well that bond was unbreakable.
