Chapter 7

Soon enough practice was over on both ends and soon enough the boy's locker room was filled with half naked ripped sweaty guys and Tim.

"Hey Luke, Peyton just told me that Brooke got Haley to join the cheerleading squad." Jake said. When Nathan heard those words come out of Jake's mouth he himself couldn't help but spray the water that he was drinking out which unfortunately went toward Tim's face. The guys all started to laugh as Tim wiped the water off his face.

"Sorry Tim." Nathan said which Tim accepted. "But did I just hear you right Jake? Haley is officially a cheerleader?" Nathan asked

"Yup Peyton said so." Jake responded.

"Yeah I thought that might've happened Brooke can be really convincing." Lucas smiled at the thought of his girlfriend.

"Oh yeah! Another hot girl to watch during practice." Tim said with a big grin on his face.

"Uh Dude! That's my sister man! You really have to stop doing that." Lucas said throwing a towel lying on the bench beside him at Tim. Tim just laughed. "What? Nathan agrees. Right Nate?" Tim said looking at Nathan waiting for a reply.

"Uh What! Shut up Tim. That's Lucas' sister, heck she's practically like a sister to me." Nathan said trying to not sound so bait.

"Well guys I gotta get going. Peyton still has to drive me home before she goes to work." Jake said before butting fists with each guy and leaving.

"So what are we doing tonight?" Tim asked.

"We are not doing anything Tim. I have a date with Brooke." Lucas said while tying his shoe.

"Awww… Well how about you Nate-ster?" Tim asked.

"Promise to never call me that name again and we could go chill tonight alright?" Nathan said.

"Alright! Nate-st- uhmm Nate and I are going out tonight!" Tim said trying to give Nathan a high –five which he was again denied of.

"Well you guys have fun on your date." Lucas said snickering.

:"Shut up this is not a date; I just have nothing else better to do." Nathan said in defense.

"Yeah whatever you say Nate." Lucas got up put his hand on Nathan shoulder trying to hold his laughter in. "You still want a ride home or you going home with Tim?" Lucas couldn't hold his laughter anymore as he started to walk out of the locker room. Nathan looked at Tim who still had a big grin on his face.

"Hey Luke wait up!" a terrified Nathan called out.


"So how was your first day Hales?" Lucas asked as they were driving home from school.

"It went well for the most of it." Haley said.

"For the most of it?" Lucas asked as he glanced at Haley with a confused look. "Something happened?"

"Well except for the fact your girlfriend forced me to be part of the cheery squad, apparently I still suck at gym and will probably fail." Haley said with a sigh.

"Yeah how did that happen anyway? I mean not you sucking at gym cuz we all knew that already but you getting in the cheerleading squad." Nathan said from behind Haley trying to keep from laughing remembering how much Haley sucked at most sports.

"Hey…I was great at badminton! Just can't do a freaking free shot thing." Haley exclaimed. "Free throw." Both guys said at the same time correcting her.

"Whatever. And as for the cheerleading thing, you can thank your best friend here also known as my dufus of a brother for telling his girlfriend my stupid experience back when I was ten!" Haley said while giving Lucas a slap on the arm.

"Hey…I was trying to help. And see you met a few friends along the way." Lucas smiled.

"Yeah thanks mom. Oh and I also got to meet your extremely sweet girlfriend Nate." Haley said sarcastically.

"Oh yeah Rachel can really be a bitch sometimes." Nathan said.

"Way to back up your girlfriend Nathan." Haley said a little confused at Nathan's respond.

"Yeah why are you still with her Nate, hasn't she cheated on you like 5 times already. And you like 10 times on her? I mean what's up with that?" Lucas asked.

"Wow I guess you guys really do belong together." Haley said a little disgusted.

"Uhhh… I don't know it's just natural for me I guess…" Nathan didn't know what else to say, a little upset over what Haley just said.


The rest of the ride home was really quiet between the three of them since Lucas kept thinking of what he was going to wear that night for his date with Brooke, Haley was just too upset and disappointed at Nathan to talk and Nathan well he was just lost of words.

After dropping Nathan home Lucas and Haley went straight home.

"Dad we're home!" Haley yelled as she opened the door.

"I'm in the kitchen pumpkin!" Andy yelled back.

"Uhmmm…I'm gonna head upstairs to take a shower." Lucas said a little suspiciously as he started to head up the stairs. Haley just rolled her eyes and sighed before putting her bag down on the living room couch and heading to the kitchen.

"Hey dad! What smells good? Have you been cooking all day?" Haley smiled and gave her dad a kiss on the cheek before taking a seat at the table.

"Hey Haley-bop Just wanted to cook all your favorites before you got home." He smiled at his daughter. As soon as Haley looked at the table you could see her jaw dropping and her eyes we're full of joy. Haley was like a little kid at a candy store.

"Oh My God! Dad! Macaroni and cheese! Chocolate chip cookies with some left over dough! And…" Haley gasped with her eyes opening wider. "Home made cookie dough ice cream! " Haley started to tear up. "Dad I can't believe you did this!" Haley jumped up and gave her dad the biggest bear hug.

"Awww… Haley-bop don't cry. I missed you so much so I decided to cook all your favorites today and surprise you. I didn't mean to make you cry." Andy said wiping the tear off his daughter cheek.

"Dad nooo...I'm just so overjoyed" Haley smiled. "I just can't believe you still remember after all this time. Lucas was in on this wasn't he! That's why he headed upstairs!" She said.

"Well… How could I ever forget?" Andy said with a big grin across his face, the same grin she would see on Lucas' every time he was successful at achieving something.

"Aw Dad I've missed you so much!" she once again wrapped her arms around her father.

"Well I'm glad you're happy. I was worried you were sick of this by now, I bet your mom makes you these everyday." Andy said

"Uhhh… mom? cooking? I don't think so. Since she married that jerk she didn't have to cook anymore. The only food we ever get are those yucky fancy food that I can hardly keep in my stomach. I don't even know what the hell they put in there. I swear dad it was terrible." Haley said with much disgust on her face.

"Haley-bop it couldn't have been that bad. Anyway, so tell me about your first day at your new school." Andy said.

"Oh well I met a whole lot of new people. I think I might fail gym again. And oh! Your daughter is now an honorary member of the cheerleading squad! Yippee…" Haley said sarcastically, twirling her index finger in the air.

"Cheerleading ay? Isn't Brooke part of that?" he asked

"Yup! She's the one that recruited me. Thanks to that son of yours!" Haley sighed.

"Well it could be fun. At least you made some friends along the way." Andy said trying to make light on things.

"What is up with this 'at least you're making friends' thing? Do you guys really think I'm incapable of making friends without your help?" Haley exclaimed.

"Oh honey it's not that. It's just-"

"You're more of like a loner most of the time that is." Lucas comes out of the corner and starts snickering at his sister.

"Shut up!" Haley scoffed as she threw one of the cookies at Lucas, but Lucas caught it and took a bite out of it. "MmmMm. Thanks. Great cookies dad." Andy just shook his head and chuckled.

"Dad! Your suppose to take my side!" Haley crossed her arms and pouted.

"Okey okey that's enough you two. Now c'mon let's all eat dinner like one big happy family before the mac n cheese gets cold." Andy said.

"Can't, going out with Brooke for dinner. Actually I'm going to head out now she hates it when I'm late! See you guys later!" Lucas turned and left.

"Hmm well I guess it's just you and me then pumpkin." Andy smiled and got some plates out.

"Just the way I like it!" Haley said grinning while eating a piece of her cookie.
