Chapter 13
Well, as nervous as I was, I was still really excited to see Peyton and Larry. I thought about calling ahead to let them know I was coming, but then thought better of it. They probably don't want me there anyways so no need to call and tell them I'm coming. Besides, element of suprise is everything.
"Hales? Where are you right now?" I was brought out of my thoughts by a hand waving in my face.
I looked up to see Nathan, grinning. "Hey," I said and pulled him down to sit next to me.
"Hey yourself," he replied and kissed me lightly. "So, what were you thinking about just now?"
I shook my head. "Nothing, Nate."
He quirked his head. "I think you just don't want to tell me, but I bet I can guess what you're daydreaming about," he said, wrapping both arms around me.
I smiled up at him. "Oh, really? What was I thinking about?"
"Watching me play in my game the other day has got you daydreaming about the sexy, sweaty Nathan Scott! Of course it's about me! Your sexy, talented, ripped boyfriend," he said and flexed his muscles for me.
I laughed. "You caught me. You're on my mind 24/7 and I don't know how to get you out," I joked right back.
He smiled. "I know what you mean, Hales," he said softly and leaned down to kiss me again, this time with more passion.
I sighed into the kiss, wrapping my arms around his neck. His tongue ran along my bottom lip before entering my mouth, engaging my tongue in battle. Soon enough I was in dire need of air so I pulled back. Nathan had not wanted to stop nor had the need so he continued on, exploring my neck. He bit down hard then soothed the spot with his tongue. Things were getting intense, to say the least, and I didn't make any moves to stop him this time.
I heard a noise and a voice and became confused. "Okay, tutorgirl, I- OH MY GOD! I'm sooo sorry!" Brooke exclaimed. I jumped, realizing where I was and what was happening. Nathan, being on top of me, had fallen to the floor with a loud thud. "I'll just leave now."
"Brooke, don't bother," I said and helped Nate off the floor. "You ruined any mood that there was."
"Good, because I gotta talk to you," she said and I gave Nate a sympathetic look.
He shook his head. "It's okay. I'll have you all to myself for the next 3 days," he said and stood up. "I'm gonna make us some dinner. Brooke, you gonna stay?"
She looked at him like he was crazy. "Me? Turn down free food? Hell yes I'm staying!"
We laughed at her. "Okay, then. I'll be in the kitchen," he said and left us alone.
Brooke pulled me back towards the couch. "Okay, first off, I am sooo sorry! I didn't mean to interupt! We totally need to start the scrunchie system, but we'll get to that in a minute," she started.
"Wait, what's that?" I looked quizical.
She pulled out her purse and searched through it, pulling out 3 scrunchies. "Red scrunchy,means occupied; some serious action going on in here. The yellow scrunchy means; we're just making out but one or more of us may be topless," she explained.
"And what about the black one?" I asked, almost immediately regreting it.
She smirked. "That means I'll be steering clear of the apartment," she said. "I don't want to interupt any intimate moments like that again."
I blushed, replying, "relax, Brooke. We haven't had sex yet and I don't know if I want to yet."
She took a hold of my hand. "Haley, it doesn't matter to me, but I have to know. Are you a virgin?"
I shook my head. "No, I'm not and it's not about waiting for marriage before having sex again, I just..." I trailed off.
"You're scared of making that step again?" she asked softly. I nodded. "Well, I'm sure that you'll become more comfortable when you're with Nathan for longer. He doesn't seem to be the type to just leave after getting you to sleep with him."
I sighed. "It's just that sex is a big deal for me. I don't want my first time with Nathan to just be some random thing. I want it to be special," I explained and put my head on her shoulder.
She rubbed my back and then kissed my forehead. "And it will be, Haley. I'm sure he wants that, too."
I nodded and remained quiet. It was just a nice moment with Brooke. Then I remembered. "Oh, you had something you wanted to talk about?"
She squealed and then jumped up. "Yes! Okay, so back in high school I was a peppy, bouncy cheerleader, right?"
I smiled and said sarcastically, "Really? You? A bouncy, cheery cheerleader? I totally don't see it, tigger!"
She smirked. "Cute, tutorgirl, anyways back to what I was saying. I was just walking through school when I happened to stop by the cheerleading practice. I watched them for a minute and then wondered if they had any open spots, right?" I nodded, encouraging her to continue. "So, like a sign from god, these two girls fall from their stunts and they have two openings and I totally signed us up to tryout!" she said the last line in one breath.
I was confused for a minute. "Wait a second, whose we?"
"Yeah, whose we?" Nathan asked, leaning against the wall seperating the living room and kitchen.
"You and me, silly!" Brooke said and jumped. "Isn't this great?"
I sighed. "I'm not really the cheerleader type, Brooke," I explained.
"What are you talking about, tutorchick? I sat with you at Luke and Nate's game and you were cheering your heart out!" she pointed out.
I came back with, "yeah, but that was for Nate and Lucas, not a whole team! Besides, I wasn't dancing around in a little skirt, was I? No, I wasn't."
"Not that it would be a bad site though, baby," Nate said with a wink.
I rolled my eyes. "You are soo not helping me here, Nate."
"What? I think you'd look adorable as a cheerleader!" he exclaimed. "Oh, by the way, girls. Dinner's ready."
I jumped up. "Good, lets eat and forget about this conversation," I said, leaving no room for arguement.
"Fine, tutorchick, but we will be getting back to this later, don't think I will forget about this!" Brooke exclaimed and we all sat down to eat.
What did you think? Another update later tonight!
