Finding Our Future chapter37

"He only left this morning and I'm missing him like crazy. Plus things sort of ended on a strange note for us."

"What do you mean?"

"Oh it's far too complicated to explain now over the phone Quinn."

"Well hurry up and finish at work then. Come straight here and we can talk things out Haley Bob."

"I can't just up and leave Quinn. I have work to grade and lessons plans to get done."

"Fine, I guess I can wait a little longer. You always were such a nerd anyway, when it came to getting things done."

No, I just like to be prepared. I really have to go, so I'll see you when I'm done."

"I knew there was a reason you were a little off this morning."

"Excuse me?"

"What, did you not get your usual morning fuck in the shower now that lover boy is away?" He smirked at her.

"Don't you have a basketball practice to be at?" She questioned not drawing any attention to this comment.

"Whitey finished up a little early since we were understaffed with lover boy being away."

"Okay, well thanks for the info. You can go now."

"Actually I can't," he spoke taking the pen out of her hand.

"Can I have my pen back?" She asked sternly to him.

"Since lover boy is away, I was wondering if you would like to come over?" He spoke walking around to her side of the table.

"Um I think I'll pass," she replied not even lifting her head or looking in his direction.

Leaning down over her, he whispered "Come on Hales. You can blow off some of that sexual frustration with me." He whispered while letting his fingers run up and down her arm.

"Would you get off me?" She spoke a little louder than she intended pushing his hand away.

"Mm feisty," he spoke grabbing her hand.

"Let go", she spoke sternly, finally turning in her chair so she could make eye contact with him.

"Everything okay in here? I thought I heard raised voices," Principal Turner spoke entering her room.

Quickly letting go of her hand and standing upright he replied "Everything is fine sir. Miss James just needed some help with her lesson plans. I'm just helping her go over some things for one of her next classes."

"Okay, everything good with you Miss James?" He asked seeing how nervous she was acting around Grant.

"Umm actually principal..." Haley spoke standing up from her chair.

"Yes Haley?"

"Haley is fine. She just needs a little extra support with this material. It seems she hasn't taught it in a while." He commented, quickly interrupting her.

"Ok, well good luck guys. Don't stay and work too long into the evening."

"Oh don't worry sir; we are both heading home in a few." Grant replied smiling, leaving Haley in a state of shock at his boldness.

"Ok see you both tomorrow," Principal Turner spoke just before he left the room.

"Grant, what the hell was that? I don't need you speaking for me, especially in front of our boss. And I certainly don't want or need your help, thank you very much." She snapped, stepping back from him.

"I just didn't want you saying something you would regret, is all," he spoke smirking at her moving closer to her again.

"The only thing I regret is letting you hit on me that first night." She spoke putting her hands up to stop him from coming any closer.

"Aww that hurts Haley. So how about you and me tonight? He asked brushing her hair behind her ear.

"Grant, get your fucking hands off me now. I'm sick and tired of your games. One more stunt like today, and I will have no problem reporting you for sexual harassment. As for tonight, I already have plans, and even if I didn't, it still wouldn't happen."

"Well, if you change your mind, here is my number." He commented, writing it on the back of her hand before setting the pen down on her table and leaving.

"Ugh, pour me the biggest glass of wine you have", Haley spoke before plopping down on the sofa.

"Rough day?"

"Like you wouldn't believe,"

"Difficult students?"

"Sort of,"

"Oh right, him," Quinn spoke walking over and handing her the glass of wine.

"Don't give me that look," Haley spoke before taking a big sip.

"What? I didn't give you a look,"

"You so gave me the, I told you so look. I'm honestly not in the mood to get into that with you tonight,"

"Fine, so tell me. What happened between you and Nathan last night?" She questioned watching the dopey smile on her sister's face.

"Well originally he asked me over to his place, but shortly after I got there we got into a disagreement about Grant. Which I'm not getting into tonight with you either. Then he asked me to leave, which I did."

"Then what happened?" Quinn asked seeing the mix of emotions on her sisters face.

"I went and got some food at Karen's and then went home and cried a little, and then called Brooke. Once I talked things over with her, I was finally able to give my mind a rest and get some sleep."

"Did Nathan call?"

"Worse, he showed up banging on the front door. When I asked what he was doing, he just came at me and started kissing me like there was no tomorrow." She spoke finally letting out a breath.

"Wow! That sounds like something only you see in films. So how was the kiss?"

"Um I'm not answering that Quinn. You know I don't like sharing those sort of details," she commented taking another sip of her wine.

"Well guessing by the silly smile on your face, I'm assuming the rest of the evening went pretty well then. Did you give it up for him?"

"Quinn, come on. You know we still have a lot more to get past before I even consider doing that. It's getting harder to try and resist him though."

"Well you know you could always get a vibrator or something to help prepare you for when things do get to that point."

"I knew bringing this up with you was a bad idea."

"Hey! I'm just trying to help prepare you for what's to come. Anyways, how was the kiss?"

"I told you I'm not answering that," she spoke taking another larger sip of wine.

"Come on Haley. Nathan shows up in the middle of the night, kissing you like his life depended on it, so there must be something good to share", she replied trying to encourage her.

"Urgh fine, it was great. One of the more passionate kisses we have shared together. It felt like we were getting back to who we were before the whole tape thing."

"Did he stay the night?"

"Yes,"

"Alone?"

"No, we stayed in the guest bedroom together,"

"I'm happy for you Haley. You know if you need any advice, I'm here for you."

"Speak of the devil. I better take this call," she spoke looking down at her phone.

"Sure thing,"

"Hey Hales", he spoke once he realized she had answered.

"Hey yourself, so how was your flight? Are you all settled in? I was hoping to hear from you sooner than this.

"I only left you this morning Hales."

"Yeah! Just after the way we left things this morning, I kind of miss you." She admitted nervously to him.

"Um yeah, I didn't overstep the lines by coming over last night did I?"

"Um no, not at all. I'm just overthinking things about how we left them this morning."

"Hales, it's not about sex okay. When you're ready, I'll be too. Sorry I didn't call you sooner, but some of my meetings got changed around. This is the only free minute I've had all day. I miss you like crazy too."

"It's okay Nathan. I know you're there to work. After that kiss and sharing the bed together, I'm just missing you a lot more is all."

"Mmm yeah, that kiss is definitely in my top five. I'm missing you even more now too. Hopefully since my meetings got changed, I might be able to get back a day early. Anyways, enough about me, how was your day?"

Taking a second to think back on her day, she replied "oh you know, the usual."

"Are you sure Hales? You don't seem yourself when you talk about school."

"Well actually..."

"Hold that thought a second Hales,"

"Okay," she answered hearing him opening the hotel room door talking to someone.

"Um Hales, I'm really sorry but I actually have to go. Something last minute just came up, but I promise to call you again tomorrow."

"Okay bye I lo.."

"Love you," she spoke sighing hearing the line go dead before she got her words out.

Xxx

"That was shorter than I expected you to be," Quinn spoke seeing her coming back out of the bedroom.

"Oh something last minute came up and he had to go."

"Welcome to the joys of long distance dating," Quinn commented seeing the look on her face.

"Umm Quinn how do you make it work so well with Clay?. Nathan is only gone like not even a day and I'm already missing him like crazy."

"Phone sex," she spoke smirking at her sister.

"Yeah I think it's a little early in the relationship for that sort of thing."

"Well I know you're not a very patient person Haley, and I also know there are a lot of feelings involved, so you never know."

"I think I like the suggestion of using a vibrator better," she answered watching her sister's face turn to utter shock.

"Who are you and what have you done with my little sister?"

"We all have needs Quinn."

"Yeah I think you have been hanging around Nathan too long."

"Whatever! I better go. Some of us still have to go to work in the morning."

"Okay I'll stop teasing Haley Bob."

"Good, it's getting late anyways and I need to get some sleep. I'll call you tomorrow."
