Chapter Three: First Day

Brooke and Haley walk up to the doors of Tree Hill High, before opening the doors Brooke turns to her best friend.

"Are you ready for this Hales?"

Haley nods her head and Brooke smiles.

"Welcome to Tree Hill High Haley James."

Haley looked around the halls and noticed that they were less crowded then her old school. People were at their lockers, clearly in their own little groups. It also looked like a lot of people were together.

"This way Haley," Brooke says as she grabs Haley's hand as they walk into the office.

Haley met with Principal Turner and he welcomed her and handed her, her schedule. She had the basic classes, English, Math, Social Studies, Science and Phy. Ed. She also had a free period which she was happy about considering it was at the end of the day and she figured she could cut out early and so her daughter.

Brooke and Haley went to Brooke's locker and Haley smiled when she saw Lucas waiting with them with whom she figured was Peyton.

"There she is," Lucas says with a smile.

"Hi Lucas, I missed you this morning."

"I know, but I had to pick up my girlfriend."

Peyton rolled her eyes and greeted Haley with a smile.

"It's nice to meet you Haley. Lucas has told me a lot as well as Brooke."

"They're my best friends, but I hope they didn't say too much about me," Haley asks with raised eyebrows.

Peyton shakes her head and laughs.

"Oh no, they just talked about what you guys used to do as little kids. Man, did I laugh at some of the stories."

Haley smiles.

"Yeah, we were all kind of inseparable."

Brooke looked at Peyton and smiled.

"Haley, Peyton and I have to do some cheer stuff so I guess we will leave you two alone."

"Okay Brooke," Haley says as she rolls her eyes.

"So Hales, how is my goddaughter?"

"She's fine, she misses her uncle Lucas though and please don't mention anything about that here. It's not that I'm ashamed of her because I'm not it's just a new place and I left the old one because of the stares and the whispers. I don't want that here."

"I'm sorry Haley. I didn't think."

Haley smiled and hugged Lucas.

"It's okay Lucas. I forgive you, now take me to class."

Lucas laughed and they walked to class together.


Nathan shut is locker and looked over at Jake Jagielski his best friend.

"Who is the girl that was talking to Lucas?"

"New girl, I think. Don't get any ideas Nate. You know what will happen."

Nathan smirked and looked at his friend.

"And what will happen exactly?"

"Your brother would kick your ass."

Nathan rolled his eyes.

"Don't think he won't Nate."

Nathan chuckled and nodded his head.

"Yeah, well there was something different about that girl."

"I'm sure Lucas will introduce you just don't worry about it right now. Come on man we have to get to class."


At lunch Haley and Brooke sat down and waited for everyone else to show up.

"So, how is it going so far Hales?"

Haley smiled and looked around.

"It's pretty good actually. People are friendly."

Brooke smiled and waved 2 guys over.

"Hello Nathan and Jake."

"Hey, Brooke who is your new friend?" Jake asks as he sits down.

"This is not a new friend, she's an old friend and she's a transfer. Her name is Haley James."

Haley looks at Jake and then at Nathan.

"You must be Lucas' brother."

Nathan looked a little startled and then he started to smile.

"Half-brother, but brother nonetheless."

"It's nice to meet you both."

Nathan looked at Jake and started talking to him.

"Are you going to be at practice today man?"

Jake sighed and capped his drink.

"I don't know. I have to check on Jenny first."

Haley looked at everybody and then whispered to Brooke.

"Who's Jenny?"

Brooke looked at Jake and smiled.

"Jake, you might want to fill in Haley on your situation because she looks confused."

"Oh, um…Jenny is my daughter. I just started telling people and things have started to die down. Her mother isn't in the picture."

Haley frowns and takes a glance at Jake.

"I know how that is."

Nathan looked at Haley and Jake and frowned. Brooke looked at Nathan and smirked. Sometimes jealousy was a bitch.

"So, Haley what do you like to do?" Nathan asks.

"I like to sing and read mostly, why?"

"Just curious."

Brooke laughs at Nathan's answer and they continue eating until the bell rang. Both Haley and Brooke wondered where Lucas and Peyton were until they see them come out of the supply closet.

"I guess now we know where they were," Haley says with a grossed out face.

Brooke laughs.

"I guess so. I'll see you after school Haley."

Haley nods her head. She didn't have any more classes with Brooke and that made her sad.


Haley walks into Karen's café with a smile on her face when she sees her daughter's face all full of flour.

"Bumble-bee, what were you doing?"

Andi looks up from what she was doing and smiles.

"Mommy!"

Haley smiles and picks up the little girl that ran to her.

"I was baking cookies. It was really fun."

Haley laughs and wipes some flour off of Andi's face.

"Well I think we need to go home and give you a bath."

Andi nods her head with a smile. She loved her bubble baths. Haley puts her down and Andi runs to give Karen a hug.

"Bye Karen, I get to go get a bath."

Karen laughs and ruffles Andi's head.

"See you later sweetheart."

Andi runs and grabs her mother's hand.

"Let's go mommy."

Once Andi and Haley arrived home Andi went straight to the bathroom. After a few minutes of tub soaking Andi smiled at her mommy.

"Did you meet any new friends mommy?"

Haley smiles at her memories of Jake and Nathan.

"Yeah, baby, I think I did."
