CH14:
"This is the mall, and over there is the art exhibition" Alyssa said, pointing out the buildings to Peyton. They been out to the city for about half an hour.
"This is a pretty place. And I love the temperature" Peyton said.
"It's always warm here, or blazing hot" Alyssa said.
"How long have you lived here?" Peyton asked.
"About 6 months" she said.
"Cool. So you want to take me to the mall?" Peyton smiled. Alyssa chuckled.
"Sure, that was our next stop anyway" she said, driving towards it.
With Haley…
Nathan walked up Haley's stairs. Her parents had let him in. Once again they were out for the rest of the day. Do they ever have time for their daughter? he thought. Lucas didn't come with him today because honestly he didn't know why. Lucas mumbled something to him in the morning so he just left him and headed of to Haley's house. He reached Haley's room, and saw her peacefully asleep. To bad he was about to wake her to go work out. He yawned, walking closer to her. He decided this time not to blow his whistle. He began to shake her.
"Haley, wake up" he sang. She opened her eyes slowly.
"No, no, no , and no" she said once she saw him, turning sides, and covering her face with her pillow. He laughed, pulling the sheets off her. She groaned, still not facing him. Her head was buried under the pillow. Nathan couldn't help but stare at her, mostly her legs. She turned to look at him and instantly smirked.
"Like what you see?" she asked. He snapped out, blushing and turned to her.
"I wasn't looking at you, conceited" he lied. She raised and eyebrow, then yawned.
"Come on Nathan, do we really have to work out? We can work out all day, just later on. Let me sleep. It's barely 8 in the morning" she said yawning again. He crossed his arms.
"No, come on" he said, but couldn't help but yawn as well. She smiled, sliding to the end of her bed.
"Nathan, you tired too. You keep yawning. Come on sleep with me. For at least 2 more hours" she smiled.
"I don't know, were suppose to be out by now" he said, yawning again. Damn I need to stop yawning, he thought.
"Please" she said, tapping the empty area of her bed. Nathan, not thinking twice, gave in and walked to the other side of her bed. He took of his shoes and laid next to her.
"Thank you" Haley cheered, kissing him on the cheek, then laying down once more. He smiled, then after a while fell asleep.
With Peyton…
"You like it?" he aunt asked her. Peyton looked at the expensive art set.
"Yes, it's really nice" she said, looking at it more, then at the price; $235. Yeah right, she thought.
"Lets go to the next place" she said, disappointed. He aunt looked at it.
"If you want it, I'll buy it for you" she said. Peyton turned around to look at her.
"No, it's ok" she smiled, not trying to glance at the art set.
"Peyton I can afford it. Do you want it or not?" Alyssa asked.
"If it's not to much trouble" Peyton shly said.
"Ok then, stop being so afraid. If you want something, ask me. I'm going to be the aunt that spoils you" she smiled. Peyton smiled back, grabbing the art set, and walking with her aunt to the register.
An Hour Later…
"Dad look what my aunt bought me" Peyton said, showing her dad the art set. He observed it, then looking at the price.
"Alyssa this is expensive, you didn't have to buy it" he said looking at Alyssa, whom was entering the room.
"She wanted it. Have you seen her art? It beautiful, all I want to do is encourage her more to draw." Alyssa said, placing her bags down.
"I know her art is beautiful. Look Alyssa I appreciate what your doing with letting us stay here and all, but if my daughter wants something as expensive as this, let her ask me" he said angrily. Peyton was surprised by her dads attitude.
"Dad, she told me she could afford it. Don't have to get hostile" Peyton said.
"Peyton listen to me. If you want something, from now on, ask me and only me. Is that understood?" he said loudly.
"But dad-
"Is that understood?" he asked again in a forceful tone. Peyton looked down.
"Yes" she said, walking away to her room.
"Matt I don't see what the problem is. I bought her a gift, nothing more. Don't I have the right to buy her stuff?" she asked him. Matt looked down at his wallet. He handed her the money she wasted on the art set.
"No you don't. Look Alyssa thanks, but she's my daughter and whatever I say to her is obeyed. Be thankful enough I let her meet you in the first place" Matt bitterly said, walking away.
Peyton stormed into her room, throwing herself on her bed. Why did her dad react like that? Why did he hate aunt Alyssa so much? All theses questions ran through her head, until she was interrupted.
"Peyton can I talk to you?" he dad asked.
"Either way, you going to" she sarcastically said, not bothering to look at him. He entered her room, and sat next to her.
"Sweetie, you know I love you. But if you want something expensive ask me. That's why I gave you your own credit card" he said, playing with her curly, blonde hair. She turned around facing him.
"I know that dad, but she told me she could afford it" she said.
"No, she cant. Peyton the reason I got mad is because she might say she can afford it, and she might but that money she has saved up is for something else" he said.
"For what?" she asked curious.
"Her pills. You seen her everyday so far swallow them. Peyton she needs them, badly. That money is all she has for them. Do you see why, expensive stuff like this, she cant afford?" he asked, pointed at her art set. Peyton nodded.
"I'm sorry, I just really wanted it. I'll pay her back" Peyton said. Matt leaned forward and kissed her in her forehead.
"It's ok sweetheart. Next time, now you know what to do" he said, walking away from her room.
With Haley…
Lucas opened Haley's door and saw Haley's back against Nathan chest. He didn't know how to react to that. He walked closer shouting their name. They both stirred, looking at Lucas.
"What the hell? You guys were suppose to be working out three hours ago" he said.
"It's 11 already?" Haley said in a sleepy tone.
"Yeah!" he yelled.
"Why are you yelling? We wanted to sleep, beside where the hell where you?" Haley yelled.
"Sleeping" he whispered.
"What did you say?" Nathan asked, sitting on the bed.
"Ok I was sleeping. So maybe working out every morning is not a great idea" he said.
"Ha, what I say?" Haley jumped out of her bed.
"Ok, so what do you want to do, since we're here already?" Lucas asked.
"Actually I was going to surprise you, but you have a date" Haley said to Lucas. He looked at her odd.
"With who?" he asked.
"My friend Riana, from the cheerleading team. And your date starts at one" Haley smiled at him.
"She wants to go out with me? Are you sure?" he asked surprise. Riana, was one of the hottest girls on the squad.
"Yup, so you should go home and get ready and plan your date. Here is her address" Haley said, handing him a piece of paper.
"Thank you Hales" he said snatching the paper and leaving her house.
"Couldn't wait to be home along with me, could you?" Nathan smirked. Haley turned to Nathan.
"I couldn't help it, you're just to damn hot" she played along.
"I knew you couldn't resist me" he smirked. She hit him in his arm
"Did anyone ever tell you, you have a big ego?" she asked him.
"One or twice" he said. She laughed at him.
"I thought so" she said, getting out of her bed.
"So what do you want to do today?" she asked.
"Want to see a movie?" he asked.
"Sure" she said, grabbing her clothes and heading to the bathroom.
A Few Hours Later…
"Nathan that movie sucked, and you know it" Haley laughed as they were exiting the movie theater.
"Ok, so maybe it did" he said. They kept walking along, until they ran into Haley's friends.
"Haley, Nathan hey" Bevin said. She was with her other three friends. Haley forced a smile. These were the girls that voted against her to be captain.
"Bevin, girls, hi" she said. Nathan smiled at them.
"So are you guys here on a date?" Bevin asked.
"Oh, no were just friends" Haley said.
"Yeah, were just friends" Nathan added.
"Oh, ok. We'll see you later then" Bevin said, walking away with her friends. Nathan and Haley proceeded, walking to his car.
"Wait Nathan, let me throw this away" Haley said, walking to the trash can. As she threw it away, she heard Bevin talk about her. She hid behind the wall.
"Friends my ass. I guess one Scott wasn't enough... Talk about a Scott whore" Bevin said, as her other friends laughed. Haley looked down hurt. How can they talk shit about her, when they had no reason. She had been friends with them since middle school. She walked back to Nathan's car.
"So where else?" he asked. She remained quit, for a while.
"Can you just drive me home, please?" she asked.
"Ok" he said, not noticing her mood. Once they arrived there, she couldn't take it anymore. She broke down crying.
"What wrong?" he asked, concerned.
"They is what wrong. Always them. Why cant they just leave me alone?" she said, trying not control herself.
"Who's them?" he asked, rubbing her back. She turned to him, wiping her tears.
"Bevin, Claire and Clarrisa. When I threw my trash away, they were talking about me" she sniffed.
"What did they say?" he asked concerened.
"They called me the Scott whore. They think I'm screwing you too. Why cant they just leave me the hell alone" she said, crying again. He sighed. Over the year, those girls have been starting drama with Haley. But with that whole time Haley had defended herself, or ignored it, but he wondered, why pretend to be friends with someone that doesn't like you or vice- versa? He hated seeing her cry.
"I'm sorry. There probably jealous" he said. She looked at him again.
"Of what?" she asked.
"That you get to hang out with someone as hot as me" he grinned. She laughed at his statement.
"You and your ego" she said. He wiped away her tears.
"At least I made you laugh" he smiled at her. She returned the smile.
"This is why I love you. Your always making me feel better. Thanks" she said, kissing him on the cheek. Once her lips touched his skin, it felt weird; for the first time. Slowly backing away from kissing him in the cheek, Haley locked eyes with him, and without words being spoken, she leaned in and kissed him.
