Finding Our Future ch9

After sharing the kiss, Nathan and Haley decided to go for a walk along the beach and watch more of the fireworks. They sat on a blanket cuddled together watching the fireworks light up the night sky.

Haley felt a cool breeze come over her body and she woke up a little confused. Wondering how she was still on the beach.

"Nathan, we fell asleep on the beach", Haley whispered seeing a few early morning runners

"Umm go back to sleep Hales," he groaned rolling over.

"Nathan we fall asleep on the beach," she whispered seeing a few early morning runners.

"Oh, we much have lost track of time last night", Nathan spoke, yawning and sitting up

"Yeah! What are we going to do? All of our stuff is still at Quinn's house," Haley spoke starting to panic a little.

"If you go back you will get too many questions from her," he spoke trying to figure out what the best plan of action would be.

"Yeah! So it's best for you to go and grab our things?," she spoke looking over at him.

"That's probably best. Do you want to wait here and I'll drive your car back to here?" he spoke trying to work everything out in his head.

"Yeah! That would be great," she spoke smiling back at him.

Nathan got up shaking the sand off him and heading back up the beach to Quinn's house.

"Nate! What have you done with my sister?" Quinn shouted seeing Nathan coming back toward the house.

"I haven't done anything Quinn, she is just fine."

"Where is she? Why is she not with you now?" She spoke starting to panic.

"Quinn, relax. She is fine and she isn't here because I didn't want you overloading her with questions," he spoke heading into the guest bedroom to get their stuff.

"She didn't even have her phone with her. Did you take advantage of her last night? All her clothes are still here too," she shouted watching him gather up all their things.

"Quinn, you and I both know that I would never do that to her. She is wearing my gym clothes cause it was cold last night", he shouted back trying to stick up for Haley

"Okay, will you just have her call me later?" she asked handing him back Haley's phone

"Yes, will you let Clay know I will be back later to get my car," he spoke heading back out through the house to Haley's car.

"Okay, sorry for shouting at you"

"It's okay, I know you're just protecting her," he spoke while loading everything into the car.

"Miss James, you're up early", Grant spoke slowing down and coming over to her

"Oh Grant, hi" Haley spoke nervously looking around the car park to see if Nathan had arrived back yet.

"Is everything okay Haley?" He spoke noticing she was acting a little strange.

"Yeah! I'm fine. How are you? Did you have a good time with your family?" She asked trying to act normal and make conversation with him.

"Yes, I had a great evening. How was yours?" Grant asked curiously noticing that she was in different clothes that were way too big for her

"Oh my night was really nice and relaxing. I just watched the fireworks on the beach with Nathan," she spoke not giving away any other information.

At hearing that, Grant felt like he had been pushed into the cold ocean. "So I take it our dinner date is off the cards then?"

"Umm no I wouldn't say that,"

Xxx

Nathan pulled up and saw Haley and Grant talking with each other.

"Hi Nate, nice to see you man," Grant spoke as he saw him approaching them.

"Yeah, Haley here is your phone and your keys. Enjoy your date. I'll see you guys later", Nathan spoke walking away and not giving either of them a chance to respond.

"Nathan wait! We were just talking", Haley called after him

He didn't stop heading back up toward Quinn's house to get his car.

"Looks like someone is a little jealous that another guy might think you're sexy," Grant spoke smirking at her.

"Listen Grant, I currently don't look or feel like much of a woman at the moment, let alone sexy, so if you could give me two hours, we could meet up here again and go for lunch or something?" she suggested to him

"Sounds great. I will see you in a little while," he spoke before walking away.

Haley stood there worrying about how her actions were hurting Nathan's feelings towards her. For now though, it was something she would have to worry about later as she had a date to get ready for.

Here is chapter 9. I hope you all enjoy it and always please review
