The bells above the door in the café rung as Haley opened the door. She walked back behind the counter and Karen was there washing dishes. There were only 2 customers in the café and they had already paid their bill so they got up and walked out.

"How's Nathan today?" Karen asked with a sympathetic expression.

"What? He's fi---." Haley stopped herself from finishing that sentence remembering what she had said last night.

"Oh, he is feeling a lot better! The medicine I brought him did a world of good." Haley hated lying but she felt it was the only alternative yesterday.

"That's good. Look, I have dinner plans tonight with Keith at 8:30 so I will be leaving you to handle the café alone. Is that o.k.?" Karen asked looking at her watching noticing it was 8:23.

"Umm…yeah, I guess that will be fine. What time would you like me to close up?" Haley replied with a nervous face.

"Well today has been a little slow so I guess 10:45." Karen told Haley.

Haley smiled the second she heard Karen say 10:45 because she knew the guys usually came around 11:15.

Karen left and Haley continued to work. Only 4 other people came in that night so everything went by slow. Haley could faintly hear some people laughing in the distance outside. Their voices became louder as the came closer and closer.

When Haley saw who the voices were coming from threw the display windows, she quickly ducked down behind the counter and crawled into the back room.

She heard the bells above the door ring and the laughs grow even louder.

"Hey, nobody's here." One voice said.

"Look's like we won't have to pay!" Another voice said.

Haley grabbed her phone out of her pocket and dialed Nathan's number.

"Nathan, their here!" Haley whispered into her phone.

"Haley? Who's there? The guys! The 5 drunks! Haley get out of there!" Nathan yelled through the phone.

"I will go out the bac----"Haley got cut off from her sentenced when she heard…

"Well, well, well. Look at what we got here!" The tallest of the 5 guys said looking down at Haley on the ground.

"Haley? HALEY! I'm coming!" The line went dead.

The tallest guy grabbed Haley's left arm and yanked her up to her feet. By then, the other 4 guys were standing around Haley also.

"John, what should we do with her?" One of them asked.

John, his name was John Haley realized.

"I think we should have some fun!" John yelled pulling Haley over in front of the counter.

"Let go of me! I'm warning you, that if you -----" Haley was screaming at John.

"You'll what princess? Tell you're husband?" John quietly said to Haley. His face was so close to hers that she could feel his breath on her face.

"You're on the Wildcats basketball team aren't you? Huh? Aren't you? Well my husband NATHAN is on the Ravens. He's the star player! Looks like you'll be losing to him tomorrow night!" Haley yelled to John as loud as she could!

John pushed Haley to the ground in front of the counter then he stepped down practically of top her and said, "Wrong, Your husband will be losing to me and I don't like it when girls act tough." He said staring into Haley's eyes.

John's hands were running up and down Haley's arms. She couldn't move at all because all the other guys were pinning her down. John started unbuttoning her top. Haley was screaming as loud as she could until the guy near her head put his hand over her mouth. Haley's eyes were full of tears and she couldn't do anything about it.

John got Haley's whole top off so all he could see was her red undershirt.

"Oh, come'on, you must be having so much fun! I know that I am having a blast!" John said with a smirk on his face.

John yanked her up by the arms and pushed her back into a wall. Then he grabbed her hands and pushed them above her head. She started screaming again until John's mouth touched her's. Haley didn't know what to do but then she had an idea.

Haley kicked Johns shin with her foot then she ran towards the door but before she made it, the 4 guys stepped in front of her and then pushed into a booth.

By that time, John had gotten back up and he walked over to Haley. He didn't have a smirk on his face anymore. Instead he looked ticked off. He lay on top of her and started unbuttoning her pants. He stopped then reached for the hem of her undershirt and quickly pulled that off so she was only in a bra.

Haley heard the bells above the door again. John got pulled off of Haley and when Haley sat up John was on the floor across the café.

"Nathan!" Haley was crying so much by this time. Nathan pulled Haley up out of the booth and quickly asked "Are you o.k.?" Haley slowly shook her head no.

Nathan got REALLY ticked off so he told Haley to get her shirt back on and then to wait there.

Nathan ran across the café and picked John up by the neckline of his shirt. Nathan pushed him hard up against the wall and yelled in his face, "What the heck are you doing? Harassing a defenseless girl." Nathan couldn't have been more mad than he was right that second.

Nathan punched John in the jaw 3 or 4 times then threw him into a stack on chairs.

"Get out of here! Be prepared to lose in tomorrow's game too!" Nathan pointed towards the door and gave John a deadly stare.

John got up to his feet and fixed the collar of his leather coat then slowly walked out of the café, his 4 friends following him.

Nathan ran over to Haley and grabbed her into his arms tightly. Haley started to cry again.

Haley turned of the café light and Nathan picked her up and then he walked out of the café with her in his arms.

When they got to their apartment Haley and Nathan crawled into bed (Not Literally) and then fell asleep.

The one thing Haley said before falling asleep was "Kick his ass in tomorrow's game." Then Haley reached up and gave Nathan a long kiss on the lips and rested her head on his shoulder. They both fell asleep soon after that.

So what did you think? There is still more to come in the story. That wasn't the end of it! Please RR
