Author's Note: So, my computer crashed. And I lost the story, thankfully I had it saved on a disk. Of course, the disk wasn't compatible with my new computer. So after transferring all the files today, I bring you this. Unfortunately, this is the filler chapter. The next chapter is a good one. It should be up soon!!

Thanks so much! Review, please.

Chapter 4: I'd Go Anywhere For You

Two Weeks Later…

Haley sat in her Psych class next to Nathan, who was her partner for the project they'd be doing. For the last two weeks, she and Nathan had been getting along much better, especially after what had happened the night of her party.

"So this week is the first week of your project. Your first challenge seems simple, but it's not. You need to bring your partner to your home, introduce them to who they want, and tell them one thing about yourself that your partner doesn't know."

"I can't believe the parentals are home!" Brooke whined to her cousin as she packed.

Haley sat on her bed flipping through a magazine with her, "I can't believe they brought Nana with her"

Brooke stopped, "I can't believe she's staying with you! I wish she was staying with me"

Haley threw her magazine down, "I wish she was, too"

Brooke laughed, "Hales…Nana isn't that bad"

"She doesn't like Haley that much," Lucas said reading a magazine.

Brooke looked toward Lucas, "Why are you reading an extremely feminine magazine"

"My best friend was a girl growing up," Lucas reminded.

Lydia James poked her head in the room, "Brooke…your parents are leaving"

Brooke pouted, "I don't wanna leave"

Lydia laughed along with her brother who joined her, "Now they want to stay together. A few months ago they couldn't stand the thought of being together"

When they were younger and Lucas and Haley used to go to the supermarket with their parents, they used to wander around the supermarket without the supervision of their parents, and end up getting in a lot of trouble. As teenagers, things didn't change that much, well, minus the trouble part.

"How long is your grandmother staying with you?" Lucas asked as they went down the junk food isle.

"Too long," Haley replied.

"I don't understand why you don't get along with her, but Brooke does," Lucas wondered.

"Simple. She likes Brooke," Haley said.

"Why doesn't she like you?" Lucas asked.

"If I knew that, I'd tell you," she smiled and continued down the aisle.

"Must you take me down this aisle," Lucas whined.

"I hope you have many daughters with my cousin," Haley answered. "That's my luc—Wait! Hales!" Lucas complained.

Haley giggled and stopped immediately, "Oh no"

"What?" Lucas said turning around.

"Nate…what's up man?" Lucas asked pounding fists with Nathan.

"Nothing much, hey Hales," Nathan acknowledged.

"Hey," Haley said sheepishly.

"Haley! Did you get the medication?" Lydia said coming down the aisle.

"Oh I'm sorry, Hales….I'm Lydia James, Haley's mom," Lydia spoke.

Nathan smiled, "Hi Mrs. James, I'm Nathan Scott"

"Scott? So your father is in business with my brother, then?" Lydia smiled.

"You got it," Nathan smiled.

"Well, I'm gonna go finish up shopping…Haley, don't forget the medicine. Nathan, it was a pleasure meeting you…you should come to dinner at my house one day," Lydia said.

"That would be really nice," Nathan smiled.

Haley smiled nervously and Nathan asked, "So when do you want to get started with our project"

"I don't know, do you want me to go to your house first or what?" Haley asked.

"You can come to my house….tomorrow after school?" Nathan asked.

Haley nodded, "Sounds good"

"Good. So I'll see you guys later"

"So cousin, what are you doing after-school?" Brooke asked her cousin while they were leaving their History class.

"Nathan's and then my house," Haley answered.

"Kinky!! Two places! Proud of you, cuzo," Brooke said perkily.

"Project, Brooke. You know…for school?" Haley answered.

"Oh yeah…Jake and I have to do that today, too…Lucas and Peyton are too," Brooke answered.

"Why are you so obsessed with Lucas?" Haley asked.

"I'm Brooke Davis! I am not obsessed with boys!" Brooke said.

"Did you even hear that come out of your mouth," Nathan asked walking over to the girls.

"Nathan! You act like I slept with every guy in Miami," Brooke whined.

"You kinda did, Brooke," Nathan said.

"Did I sleep with you?" Brooke retorted.

"No!" Nathan yelled.

"Exactly," Brooke spoke.

"You guys sure you never slept together?" Haley asked.

"Definitely not," Brooke said.

"Why?" Nathan asked smirking.

"You two just seem like people who would drunkenly sleep together and tape it," Haley said laughing.

"Funny," Brooke said sarcastically.

Nathan laughed, "So my house after-school…then yours? We'll get this part over with"

"I'll meet you at my locker," Haley smiled.

Nathan nodded and then walked away.

Brooke smiled as Nathan walked away and then turned excitedly back to Haley, "Did you see that?!?"

"See what?"

"He gave you the nod!"

"Lucas!" Peyton called.

Lucas turned around and smiled, "Yup."

"So…when do you want to get this part of the project over with?" Peyton asked.

"I'm free now," Lucas mentioned.

"Cool, let's go dude," Peyton said.

"Marvin!" Rachel called down the hallway.

Mouth turned around smiling at Rachel, "You know you can call me Mouth"

Rachel smiled, "Ok….well, what are you up to after school"

"Nothing, why?" Mouth asked.

"Let's go do our project," Rachel suggested.

"Cool."

Nathan walked over to where Haley's locker was and smiled at her as she noticed him. "You ready?"
