Chapter Four
Just a Boy
"I've missed you…" Nathan started, though the words fell off is tongue as he looked into her eyes. It was as if a wrecking ball had come to let the emotion come and flood back it to her eyes. The beginning of tears started to pool.
It was gone though in a second. The walls were back and her cold demeanor was once again, firmly in place.
"Get out." Haley ordered through gritted teeth.
"What?"
He didn't understand…
"I said get out, you selfish son of a bitch! Who the fuck do you think you are thinking that you could just waltz back her like nothing happened?" Her clenched fists were flying in rage. "I said get out! Now!"
And he did. He didn't want to fight with her.
She wasn't the same as she had been two years ago and he understood that.
Though he would never stop loving that beautiful girl named Haley James…
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Behind Blue Eyes played quietly in the background of the room. Haley looked around, her vision was blurred from the steady stream of hot tears on her face. It was a feeling that had been missed, it was a feeling of….release.
She stared out the window, and gazed at the picture and posters on the walls- wondering if she could pinpoint the exact moment when it all changed.
Was it when Nathan told her he was moving?
Was it the first time she saw Jimmy Hart?
Was it when she took her first hit?
It didn't matter now though. Nothing really mattered because in the end it all came down to him.
He had never been just a boy. Never.
