Hey girlies!! I know it's been like forever and you guys probably hate me. I would, haha. I'm so sorry!! You guys have to know how much I love you though for reviewing. I really appreciate every single one.

This chapter is kinda medium length and has some baley for those who love Brooke and Haley as friends. It has Naley, too. I hope you enjoy!

Feed me the words to explain this urge
With pressure and squeeze, from points underneath
The streams in your skin are ready
And I can, so I will, just as long as you instill
This fear in my heart
I just hope that you aren't alone

"Points Underneath" The Honorary Title

Chapter 16

As Haley was mopping the floors in the main hall, she felt a strangely giddy feeling overtake her. Remembering her encounter with Nathan and Brooke earlier this morning made her smile.

Nathan had always been so aloof, so angry with her. She wasn't used to the playful side of Nathan. Not that she was complaining; it was rather nice.

And Brooke had turned out to be a pleasant surprise also. Haley had expected to hate her; she wanted to hate her. She couldn't, though. Brooke seemed so nice, and timid, and when she was confessing what she had done to Nathan, Haley had felt an overwhelming urge to help her.

She had been in that position before, and she was not going to let Brooke get yelled at for following her heart. The romantic in Haley wanted to find out more of the story between Brooke and Jake. Childhood sweethearts. Now that was adorable.

Haley whipped around as she heard someone clear their throat. It was Brooke.

"Um…Hi," Brooke said in a nervous tone.

"Hey," Haley replied. "What can I do for you?"

"I just came by to say thanks. You don't know how much I wanted to let Nathan have it, but that wouldn't have sat well in my case. I really appreciated it when you stood up for me, especially since you could have gotten fired or something."

"Oh, it's no big deal," Haley rushed. "I enjoy contradicting Nathan. It's one of the few pleasures in my life."

"I'll bet," Brooke laughed.

She stared at Haley for a beat before she spoke again,"So what's going on with you two?"

Caught off guard, Haley sputtered, "Y-you know…I'm one of the maids. He's my boss."

"And that's all you are?" Brooke asked with a devilish glint in her eye. "Normally maids don't bite their bosses."

"U-uh…I uh," Haley stuttered.

"And I know maids don't pinch their bosses on the ass," she teased.

"How did you—you saw that?"

"I'm more perceptive than you think. I just put on the whole 'I'm scared' act so that Nathan would take pity on me," Brooke winked. "You have no idea how much it killed me not to smack Nathan on his fat head."

"So you tricked me into feeling sorry for you?" Haley scoffed.

"Oh, don't work yourself into a snit," Brooke waved her hand as if it was no big deal. "You, missy, are trying to change the subject. What's going on between you and mister twitchy eye? Yes, I saw him wink at you, and don't say there's nothing because there is."

Haley really needed to stop being so gullible; Brooke was a feisty little spitfire. "Look, there's absolutely nothing going on with—"

"Right," Brooke dragged the word out in a sarcastic voice. "That's why he kept looking at you with adoring eyes. He kept laughing at your little jokes and smiling at you. The man totally wants you."

"Yeah," Haley mocked, "he wants my body. That's about it."

"It's more than that and you know it," Brooke said. "Did you see the way he stared at you? Oh this is going to be so much fun getting you two together!"

"Brooke, stop playing matchmaker," Haley snapped. She instantly felt sorry for the look of hurt and confusion that flooded Brooke's face.

"There are things between us that are unforgivable. There are things that I've done that he hates me for," Haley whispered.

"I don't believe that," Brooke said.

"Well it's true," Haley snapped. "I'm not a good person. If you knew what I've done you would hate me just like Nathan."

"Haley," Brooke started, "we're friends now, or at least I'd like to think we are. You can trust me."

Haley looked at Brooke with tears in her eyes, debating on whether or not she really could trust her. Would Brooke hate her if she knew the truth? Would she understand why she did what she did?

Unfortunately, Haley didn't have the chance to find out.

"What's going on here?" Nathan asked as he walked towards them. He looked at Haley, who still had tears in her eyes.

"What's wrong?" he asked, trying to hide his concern. It wouldn't do well to let her know the power she had over him.

"Nathan," Haley said. "I-uh, we were just, um—"

"I was just asking Haley to show me where the guest room was," Brooke finished. She turned her gaze to Haley and smiled. "Thanks so much. I'll be going now."

As Brooke skipped off, Haley couldn't help but laugh. Brooke really was something else. She had spunk, Haley would give her that.

"What are you laughing at?" Nathan asked Haley, relieved to know she was alright. God, she had a beautiful laugh.

"Oh, um nothing," Haley said quickly. "So Brooke seems nice."

"Yeah," Nathan agreed sarcastically as he walked towards a private sitting room. "She's just the best."

Haley followed him, not liking the way he was talking about her new friend. "And you were just so nice to her, too."

As Nathan sat down, he looked up at her in disbelief. "She ran away and got married, and I'm the one at fault?"

"Well, from what I understand, you don't even care about her," Haley shot back standing in front of him with her hands on her hips.

"So what?" Nathan asked. "Does that give her any reason to break her word and jilt me?"

"Oh don't be so dramatic," Haley said. "It doesn't suit you."

They glared at each other for a few minutes before Nathan spoke up," I can't believe you're defending her. She's the one who was deceptive and left me."

"Can you blame her?" Haley screamed. "Who in the hell would want to marry your sorry ass anyway? You're so goddamn cynical and I can't stand you!"

Hurt washed over Nathan's features as he lowered his head and started to shake.

"Oh Nathan, I'm so sorry," Haley said as she jumped on his lap and took him in her arms. "It's not your fault you're like that. It's your stupid father's fault. Yes, he's the one to blame. The way he treated you…ugh he's such an ass. It's all his fault."

Nathan continued to shake with his face buried in her chest.

"You-you're not crying, are you?" Haley whispered, feeling terrible. "Nathan, I'm sorry. I didn't mean it. You are wonderful. The best! I think—"

"Will…you…shut…up," Nathan said in between gasps.

Haley looked up to see his face. He wasn't crying, however. The bastard was laughing!

"Nathan," Haley screamed as she started to get off his lap. "I can't believe you, you jerk!"

Nathan continued to roar with laughter as he pulled Haley back onto his lap and held her to him.

"Ah, Haley, don't ever change," Nathan smiled at her, still trying to contain himself.

"What does that mean?" Haley snapped, still not particularly happy with him.

"You can't even win an argument with someone because you're afraid to injure their feelings," Nathan explained. "You're such a girl."

"A girl?" Haley questioned, not liking how juvenile that sounded. She'd have to do something about that.

Haley rubbed her body against his, making sure her entire length was pressed against him. "Don't you mean I'm a woman?"

A groan escaped his perfect lips as he replied huskily," That was very womanly indeed."

"You like it?" Haley questioned, repeating her actions. Haley was almost six months pregnant now and she had a small bump; Nathan found it extremely sexy.

"Very much," Nathan purred just before he welded his lips to hers'.

His mouth was hot and fierce, yet gentle at the same time. He had been a lot gentler with her lately. His tongue outlined her lips, begging for entrance, but Haley had other thoughts in mind.

She pulled her lips from his and moved to his neck. She placed hot, open mouth kisses, occasionally letting her tongue slip out to taste his edible neck. Her hands search lower and lower, and when she found what she was looking for, she began to stroke him.

Nathan's moans filled the room as his hands went for her breasts. They had gotten larger, due to her pregnancy, and Nathan found that he very much liked them. One hand stayed to massage her breast as the other roamed down to her derrière. It was Haley's turn to moan now.

"Nathan," she said breathlessly.

"What?" Nathan asked, panting. He looked up into her flushed face and immediately noticed her plush, swollen mouth. He wanted to taste her so much, and he was about to do just that when Haley stopped him.

Even though Haley was evident with desire, Nathan could still sense her embarrassment.

"What's wrong?" he asked gently.

"I was just…" Haley mumbled, her face filling with embarrassment again and she looked down. "I was, um, wondering if I could ask you a favor."

Nathan tenderly took her chin between his thumb and index finger and turned her face up to him. His eyes were soft as he said, "Anything."

"Well," she started slowly. "Do you remember when you tied me up and had me at your leisure?"

Nathan stiffened as he replied curtly, "Yes."

"I was, um. I was wondering if I could…" Haley gave a nervous chuckle as she looked down once more. "I was wondering if I could do that with you."

"You want me to tie you up again?" Nathan asked incredulously.

"No! "Haley exclaimed, and then she whispered shyly," I want to tie you up."

Nathan couldn't quite believe what he was hearing. She wanted to tie him up? He'd have to be stupid not to know what she'd do to him then. Hell, he was getting hard just thinking about it. Out of all the things she could have asked for, out of everything he would do for her, she wanted to pleasure him. Most women wanted things for themselves, and yet she wanted something for him.

Nathan went to kiss her, filled entirely with love and desire for her, but she pulled away yet again.

"Not now," Haley explained, once again embarrassed. "It's in the middle of the day."

"You can't tell me something like that and expect me not to pounce on you," Nathan said in a rough voice.

"Nathan, please," Haley begged, her cheeks now a fiery red.

Nathan looked into her innocent doe eyes and groaned. "You're trying to kill me, aren't you?"

"No," Haley giggled. Then she turned serious.

"I promise I'll make it worth your while," she said in a seductive purr.

Nathan groaned again, wondering how in the hell he was going to make it till tonight without exploding. It wasn't helping that her incredibly soft and warm body was still semi-rubbing up against his ignited body. He had to get out of there before he did something really crazed.

"I don't want to see you until tonight," Nathan said hoarsely. If he saw her before that, he couldn't be held responsible for jumping her.

Haley just smiled. He had no idea what he was in for.

Read and Review! Pretty please;))
