Nathan, Lucas, and Keith were sitting on the couch watching tv, just having a good time. After playing ball Nathan went to Lucas's to visit Keith and they all wound up just hanging out for a little bit.

"So Nathan you and Haley good?" Keith asked him.

"Yeah, officially moved in and all." Nathan smiled. "Things are going really great."

"I'm happy for you-" Lucas started to say but his words were cut off by the door from the front of the house was herd being slammed.

"LUCAS SCOTT!" Karen screamed

"That doesn't sound good." Keith laughed.

"KEITH SCOTT!" Karen screamed again.

"Yeah she sounds pissed." Nathan laughed at both his uncle and brother as they had a really nervous look on their face.

Karen walked in the room, her face was bright red and she looked like she had a death glare on her face.

"How long were you planning on keeping the secret that my son, my 17 year old son, risked his life to go into a burning building to save Dan!"

"Um Karen-"

"I trusted you Keith, god dammit!" she cut him off.

"Mom I'm sorry I didn't tell you." Lucas walked up to her.

"Why is it that everyone is saying that word to me lately? What on earth is wrong with you Lucas, first you run into a burning building, then you go into a school with guns!"

"Listen I'm sorry I think I should go." Nathan said excusing himself.

"I thought I lost my mind when Deb said that Lucas ran into that building!" Karen continued to shout.

Before Nathan walked out he herd what Karen said. Go figure. His mom ruining another thing. Lately all his mom was doing was pissing him off more and more.

"Karen, I should of told you, but with the shooting I thought maybe it wasn't the best timing."

"Mom don't be mad and uncle Keith please." Lucas begged. "I was walking by the dealership when I saw it on fire, I..I didn't know what to do when I saw it on fire, I just did it without even thinking. I'm sorry."

"You bet your ass your sorry Lucas. Do you not care about me? Do you understand what would happen to ME if you died. THINK ABOUT IT LUCAS!" she started to break down.

"Karen." Keith got up trying to hug her.

Karen backed away.

"You both hurt me very bad. I want you to think about that." she had tears in her eyes and walked into her room and slammed the door.

Lucas just sat down on the couch and put his hands in his head. "I'm sorry Keith."

"Yeah, me too."

Brooke and Peyton were sitting in the mall, enjoying some food, talking girl talk.

"Holy cow P-sawyer check out those hotties." Brooke shrieked.

Peyton turned her head to see three boys at the opposite end looking at them. They were indeed checking them out, and they were indeed HOT.

The one who was wearing a red baseball cap with dark black hair and beautiful green eyes. He had a nicely tanned body and a wonderful smile. The other had light brown hair with light brown eyes to match. He had broad shoulders and a muscular body. The third was a lighter hair boy with blue eyes and a nice big smile to go along great with the rest of him.

"There alright I guess." Peyton smirked.

"Oh please Peyton. I'm inviting them over."

"Brooke!" Peyton yelled. However Brooke was motioning them to come over and indeed, they were.

"What Peyton, the doctor says you need therapy, this is exactly what you need. Hot, and hotter."

"What about Lucas?"

"Hey I'm just looking, all three boys are for you to choose from."

"Brooke I'm going to kill you!"

"Hi boys." Brooke smiled as they sat around them.

Peyton couldn't deny it, they were indeed gorgeous.

"Hey girls." the one answered. "I'm Jason."

"Brooke." She smiled shaking their hands.

"Matt."

"Peyton."

"Sean."

Peyton couldn't help but notice the way Matt was staring at her when they were all talking. He kept smiling at her throughout conversation. They were all laughing and talking about where they were from, and how life has been.

"So where do you boys go to school?" Brooke asked.

" We go to Holy Cross Catholic School." Sean answered.

"Oh Catholic boys." Brooke smiled nudging Peyton. "Your favorite right P-sawyer?"

Peyton giggled.

"Oh yea, what about you girls?" Matt asked.

"We go to Tree Hill High School." Peyton answered.

"Woah, the one that just had that shooting?" Jason asked.

"Um yeah. That's the one." Brooke said unhappily.

"Wow, sorry. I hope you girls are okay." Matt told them, looking right at Peyton.

"Well actually-" Brooke started.

"Nope, we weren't in the school luckily." Peyton cut her off.

"Oh that's good."

Brooke was confused why Peyton had just lied, but she quickly brushed it off.

The girls continued to talk with the boys for about another hour when Sean's phone rang. He walked away while talking on the phone.

Matt and Peyton were in their on little conversation while Jason tried to hit on Brooke. She was wearing a cute green skirt when he looked down at her legs. She noticed and gave him a mean look.

"Nice legs, what time do they open?"

"What?" Brooke shouted.

"Jason why is it you always have to creep out all the hot girls." Sean came back from the phone and herd what he said.

"Dude, shut up it's a pick up line."

"Dude it totally didn't work, I'm taken." Brooke snapped.

"Well you guys ready to go? Frank called, he is having a party. You girls can join if you want."

"Um thanks but no thanks I'm going home." Brooke told them. "What about you Peyton?"

"Yeah I think I'll go with you."

"Whatever." Sean mumbled and he and Jason got up. "You coming Matt."

"Um no thanks. How about I give you girls a ride home instead?"

"Well thanks but no-OW!" Peyton yelled.

Brooke knew she was about to turn it down and pinched her under the table.

"Yes we'd love that, wouldn't we Petyon."

"Uh sure." Peyton smiled.

"Can I come out yet Haley?" Nathan whined. After he had left Lucas's he went home but the door was locked. He found that odd so he was about to take out his key when Haley opened it and came right out and told him he wasn't aloud to see the kitchen for a while. He covered his eyes and brought him back in the bedroom and told him to wait. That had been two hours ago.

"HALEY!" he yelled again.

"Will you just wait a second. I'm almost finished."

"You said that last time, and the time before that."

"Are you dressed the way I told you to?"

"Yes Hunny." he said sarcastically.

Haley had told him to get really dressed up. He wore a nice light blue shirt with nice pair of black pants to match. He looked at himself in the mirror and knew how good he looked. He kept looking admiring himself.

"Okay are you ready." She called out excitedly.

"Yes."

"Come on out."

Before he opened the bedroom door he sprayed himself with his "sexy cologne" as Haley refereed to it."

When he opened the door he walked out and the room was dim. The only lights were from candles placed around their apartment. He walked to the kitchen to see the table set up beautifully. He turned his head to see Haley standing there. Nathan lost his breathe. She looked absolutely stunning. Her hair was lightly curled and she was wearing a sexy red strapless dress with red shoes to match. Her makeup was lightly done which is exactly the way Nathan loved it.

"Haley what is all this?"

"Do you like it?" she asked like a little girl.

"No."

"What?"

"I love it." he smiled.

He walked over to her and kissed her.

"Thank you. This is just, amazing."

She kissed him and sat him down at the table and brought out the lasagna (Nathan's favorite)

They enjoyed a nice dinner talking sweetly and drinking wine.

"So tell my why you did this." Nathan asked kissing her hand.

"Because I love you, and I wanted to do something nice for you."

"Well now I have to do something nice for you."

"Hmmmm what should it be." Haley giggled looking around. She looked out the window and saw it was raining and a big grin came across her face. "Well I can think of something."

Nathan looked out the window and saw what she was looking at and got up. He picked her up like he did on their wedding day when he walked her through the door.

"Nathan!" she laughed.

He opened the door and ran outside with the rain falling down on them.

"Oh my god!" Haley continued to laugh. They started to kiss each other.

"I love you Haley James."

"Um, Haley James Scott."

"I love you Haley James Scott." he leaned in and kissed her.

"I love you Nathan Scott."

The continued to kiss each other passionately when Nathan slipped and they fell down.

"Haley are you okay?" He quickly asked.

He looked over at her and she just started to laugh and rolled over on top of him and continued to kiss him. Nathan kissed back falling more and more in love with his wife every second.

They were so interested in each other they didn't notice the man watching them from afar. The man in the small red car. The man who had been following Nathan all day. The man none other then Dan Scott.
