Thanks for the replies!
CH28:
Peyton looked at Haley, destroyed. The doctor had told everyone that she was ok, the only damage was that she had hurt her head badly. She would need stitches, for the deep cut that was caused, but with painkillers, she would be fine. The only thing right now was that she was in deep sleep. After several hours, Brooke, Lucas and Nathan were asleep as well. Peyton couldn't sleep. This was her fault. Haley almost died. And if she had died, she would never forgive herself. Tears began to fall again. She reached, holding Haley's hand.
"Haley, over this past year, I know I have screwed up. Emotionally and physically. And most my outbreaks were toward you. When they should of not been. I regret so much for what I did. Never in my life did I imagine our friendship would be over. You sacrificed so much for me, even when I was a bitch. I'm so sorry Haley. You are like the sister I never had…I don't know what I do without you… she sobbed heavily… if you died, I would of died with you…I promise I wont let that crazy bitch hurt you again…you're my best friend, even if I'm not yours" Peyton said. She sniffed, wiping her tears away with her other hand. Shortly, she felt her hand being squeezed. She looked at Haley opening her eyes.
"Haley?" Peyton asked.
"My head hurts" Haley faintly said. Smiling, Peyton hugged Haley.
"Where am I?" Haley asked, hugging her.
"Your in the hospital. You were in a car accident" Peyton said. Haley looked at her eyes wide open.
"Don't worry you're ok" Peyton said, as she shook the others.
"Haley?" Nathan said, walking toward her.
"Nathan" she said. He smiled hugging her, then kissing her forehead.
"I'm so sorry. I should of-
"Nathan it's not your fault. It was my clumsy self that was driving and talking" Haley said.
"Are you sure it was that?' Peyton said out of the blue. They all looked at her. She smiled nervously.
"Well all I remember was driving then, wait someone was in my side of the road. And I lost control steering away" Haley said.
"Doesn't matter now. All that matters is that you're ok" Brooke said.
"Exactly. We're so happy you're fine" Lucas said.
"Aw, thanks guys" Haley smiled.
-------------------------------------------------
Two weeks came and went. Haley injury had slowly recovered. She had handled the situation great. She was her usual joyful self pronto. In naleyville the accident had brought them closer. They were now more inseparable than ever.
"Nathan I have to go….after this I promise we'll spend more time together…I …really have…to go" Haley said between kisses. They were both parked outside Peyton's house.
"Fine. I'll pick you up at 9?" he asked.
"Yeah" Haley said fixing her hair. She looked at Nathan, leaning in to kiss him one last time.
"Bye" she quickly said, leaving the car. He laughed, waving as he drove off.
"Sorry I'm late P. Sawyer" Haley said, as she entered the house.
"Were Nathan's lip that inseparable?" Peyton teased. Haley blushed.
"You saw that?" Haley asked as she lightly blushed. Peyton nodded.
"You have it bad" Peyton said.
"I do, and I regret nothing" Haley said proud, falling on to the couch.
"Do you want a soda?" Peyton asked.
"Yes" Haley said. Peyton nodded, walking to the kitchen. Meanwhile Haley looked over the place. She looked at her shoes, her shoe laces were untied. Bending down, she saw a note. Reaching it, she only read the first line, the rest was still hidden.
Step one done
What did that mean?
"Ok Hales-"
Haley quickly hid the note back under the couch.
"What are you doing?" Peyton asked. Haley sat correctly.
"Stretching, you know yoga" she lied. Peyton laughed.
"Ok, like I said, do you want original or diet?" she asked.
"Original" Haley said raking the soda.
After a while she kept thinking about the note. What did it mean? and why didn't she ask Peyton? Something inside of her was telling her not to ask, so she ran with it.
------------------------------------------
The next couple of days, Haley was in the mall. She had been shopping for her heels. Usually someone would come tag along, but she wanted to come alone. Just for once, have time for herself. After time shopping, she was hungry. She bought a pizza at one of the food courts and sat down. Moments later a blonde, curly hair lady joined her. Haley looked at her odd.
"Can I help you?" Haley asked. The lady smiled at her.
"Hi, I'm Alyssa. You must be Haley" she said flashing a fake smile.
"Yes, I am. Do I know you? You look familiar" Haley said examining Alyssa's features .
"I'm Peyton's aunt. Has she mentioned me?" Alyssa asked.
"Ugh, so sorry. Oh wait yes, when she visited you last summer. Though other than that not once after that" Haley said.
"Really? I have been living in Tree Hill this past year. It's weird that Peyton hasn't motioned me to you, but she has certainly mentioned you to me" Alyssa said.
"No she hasn't motioned you at all. Strange, I'm at her house practically everyday. I've never see you there" Haley said confused. Why hasn't Peyton mention her aunt to her?
"I don't live with her, I live across town. But yeah, that's Peyton, always keeping her secrets" Alyssa said. Haley looked at her odd.
"What do you mean?" Haley asked.
"Well Haley, I wanted to meet you because I wanted to see if what Peyton said was true" Alyssa said. Haley remained confused.
"What did she say about me?" Haley asked.
"Don't worry from right now, you're completely the opposite of what she has been saying" Alyssa said, smiling. Haley raised an eyebrow.
"Been saying? Please tell me what she has told you about me?" Haley asked. What has Peyton been telling her?
"That you are a pathetic girl. You're easily sensible. You're way to clingy to your boyfriend. You're bossy and annoying and needs a serious confident buster. Also that you would believe anything she says, and that some car accident, I don't know what she's talking about, was not so accidental. I don't know what she meant by that part. But sweetheart I don't believe that. To me you're a real darling. Peyton's lucky to have a friend like you" Alyssa said. Haley gulped. It felt as if someone had just shot her. She looked down.
"Um, it was nice meeting you, Alyssa. I, I have to go" Haley said, quickly leaving the table. Alyssa smirked. Her plan worked. She leaned forward, grabbing the pizza to eat it herself.
-----------------------------------
Driving to Peyton's was all she had in mind. Tears were slipping out. She was played again. And she stupidly fell for it, again. Damn, she thought, Peyton 'changing." No, she fooled her. Parking on her driveway, she cleared her tears, walking to the front door. She banged on the door, waiting until someone opened it.
"Haley, what's wrong?" Brooke asked. Haley looked at her odd.
"What are you doing here?" Haley asked.
"Just hanging out, like you asked. You're right, she's actually pretty cool, an-
"No, forget what I said. Where is she?" Haley aggressively asked. Brooke pointed to the living room. Coming inside, Brooke followed.
"Haley what's wrong?" she kept asking. Haley finally stopped, glaring at Peyton.
"Hey Hales-
"Don't call me that! I hate you! You fucking two faced bitch!" Haley screamed. Brooke looked at her in disbelief as so did Peyton.
"What?" Peyton asked. Haley stepped closer to her.
"You though you could fool me again, did you? But no! I wont let you fool me once more, I seriously thought you changed. I gave you a second chance" Haley spat, weeping all over again. Peyton kept looking at Haley confused, and hurt. She couldn't help but cry as well.
"I don't know what your-
"Alyssa. Your aunt Alyssa told me everything… she told me what you had said about me, she said what you think of me! God Peyton! Why do you hate me so much? What have I ever done to you?" Haley asked. Peyton remained quite, looking at the floor.
"Your silence says enough. It's all true. I'm so stupid. I really believed you changed. I thought you wanted to be my best friend again, but no. You wanted to bring me down ,again. Alyssa said everything…Once again the smart girl is really dumb" Haley said, wiping her tears.
"No, what Alyssa said was… was… it's not true anymore" Peyton said, but immediately regretted it.
"Oh not anymore, but it was?" Haley asked. Peyton didn't say anything.
"Let me ask you something… did you have to do anything with my accident?" Haley asked. Peyton looked at her.
"No, I would never do that" Peyton said immediately.
"Forget it. I cant believe you; I wont believe you. You're nothing but a liar. A bitch. I hate you Peyton" Haley said coldly looking at the floor. Peyton sobbed, walking closer to her, but, Haley pushed her away.
"Haley, don't please. Believe me, I had noting to do with that. You're my best friend-
"No, I'm nothing to you, as you are to me. Right now, all I want to do is kick your ass. Though I wont do that, I rather use my anger in words than violence: Peyton if I could, I would never talk to you, ever. But no we have to do this stupid project. Other than that I never want to talk to you, be near you or even see you; you're dead to me. The friendship we once had, is long gone. It's never coming back….damn, I even had to force my friends to talk to you… by far of all people, I detest you. Puck you Peyton, you're nothing but a compulsive liar. Thank your aunt for opening my eyes" Haley bitterly said, as she exited the room. Peyton sobbed, dropping to the couch. Brooke glared deeply at Peyton. She walked to her, slapping her.
"Unlike Haley, I will kick your ass. Stay the fuck away from us" Brooke coldly said, running out to catch with Haley.
Peyton sobbed further. Everything she worked for, everything she had done to gain Haley's trust, shattered, like that; instantly. And all thanks to Alyssa.
--------------------------------
"I cant believe her. What nerve of her! To do that to you, again. For sure Haley, me and others will team up to kick her ass Ugh! What a bitch. You had ever right to talk the way you did to her, and-
"Brooke, I love you and all. But do you mind if you can leave? I want to be alone" Haley sadly said. They were both currently at her room. Brooke walked to Haley, hugging her.
"I'm a call away, ok?" Brooke assured.
"Ok" Haley said. Shortly Brooke was gone. Slowly Haley got up from her bed. She grabbed her boxing gloves, and her punching bag. With all her anger, and sorrow she punched as much as she could. Releasing every emotion she had then forth. Half an hour later, Nathan appeared beside her door. Haley looked at him, at his mesmerizing blue eyes. She looked down, taking her gloves off. Without words being exchanged, everything Haley felt were expressed in tears once Nathan hugged her, tightly. They both dropped to the floor. Haley hugged Nathan for her dear life, crying her eyes out.
"It's ok, cry all you want" Nathan softly said, rubbing her back. He sighed, Haley was broken. Only if he knew it wasn't by the person he blamed.
