Author's Note: There's a lot to go through before Nathan and Jill hook up but don't worry there will be enough moments and close calls to last until the big day LOL.

Everything was quiet on the sidewalks of Tree Hill. A very peaceful warm night it was indeed. The only sounds stirring were the faint cries of crickets. That and the pitter patter of tiny pebbles banging against glass. The last time Nathan had done this was back when he was wooing Haley and his beginning transition from jerky jock to who he was today.
He had been throwing pebbles that he found on her lawn at her door for five minutes but no answer. Finally after his last pebble she opened her door removing her ear phones with her sketchbook in tow.
"Nathan?" She squinted her eyes due to the lack of outdoor lights surrounding the standing boy.
"Hey." He half smiled as he slouched with his hands in his pockets, "Want to go for a ride?"
Jill nodded before going back into her room and emerging again without her earphones and sketchbook. Closing the door behind her she began to climb her way down from her second storey balcony. Nathan walked over to the descending girl offering his arms to help her down. With a little help from him she managed to reach the ground safe and sound.
"I could have gone through the front door but what fun would that have been?" She grinned big.
Nathan laughed as he shook his head.
The two made their way to his car. Nathan walked Jill to her side, making sure she was in and comfortable before making his way over to the driver's side.
"So what do I owe the pleasure of your visit?"
Nathan smiled, "none I just needed to get away from my house," he turned his key signalling the car to start up.
Jill nodded noticing his solemn look, "something on your mind buddy?"
He let out a huge sigh, "none that I feel like talking about."
Nathan wasn't too good at dealing with family problems. He didn't like expressing them either. The only person he trusted with that information was Haley and no one else.
"That's cool," she looked straight ahead.
He glanced at her from the corner of his eye. As usual she sat with her legs tucked in front of her as she embraced them. She was clad in purple polka dot pyjama pants and a brown knit sweater. Staring out the window she let out a small yawn which she quickly covered with her hand.
"Sorry for dragging you out so late, you were probably getting ready for bed or something?"
"Me?" She let out a giggle, "Nathan it's 11 in the evening, who sleeps at this time?"
Nathan smirked and nodded, "I forgot Count Dracula was sitting next to me."
"Hey," she shot him a look, "I just sleep late okay. Well not lately since you tire me out which is probably a good thing because I do need my beauty sleep."
"You don't need beauty sleep," Nathan pulled out his smooth moves.
Jill noticed his antics and couldn't help but laugh, "corny much?" she giggled some more before seizing, "anyways where we going?"
"I don't really know, I just know I don't want to be anywhere public or near my house."
Jill nodded.
"In that case I know just the place," she looked ahead, "make a left on the next street."
