Chapter 3- Never Gonna Be The Same

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

RIVER COURT/Later that Day

Nathan sat on the bleachers at the River Court staring out into space he hadn't been able to think clearly since the other night " So Please just go get the milk, Nate, Please." The words kept replaying over and over in his head. For a moment if only a moment Haley let her pain show in front of him. She hadn't done that in a long time she always kept her distance from him ever since he lost her trust.

"Hey, Nate, You in there" Lucas said waving his hand in front of Nathan's face he had showed up a few minutes ago and saw his half brother looking lost.

" What…O Hey Luke, what's up" Nathan answered giving his brother his full attention.

"Is this about the dinner last night?" Lucas question searching his brothers face for some answers.

"Haley told you about that?" before Lucas could answer Nathan continued " Is she okay? She seemed really upset last night, she told me to shut up the last time she yelled at me was when…I mean usually she holds her anger in." Nathan looked at Luke for some answers.

"First of Haley didn't tell me she told Brooke who told me." he stopped for a second before continuing " Brooke wouldn't go into complete detail all she kept saying Haley was pretty upset over whatever happened."

Nathan rubbed his hands over his face "I feel bad now, I mean I already did but I was such an ass last night." "She hates me even more now, I know were not friends anymore but I mean I still care about her." Nathan sighed.

"Why, don't you go say your sorry to her I am sure she'll forgive you" Lucas tried " I know I don't know what happened between you two freshmen year…but I am sure if you try you guys could start over. I am sure it wasn't that bad."

Nathan just shook his head " Your right it wasn't that bad, it was worse. She'll never forgive me for it. No matter what I do believe me it will never be the same."

FLASHBACK 2 YEARS AGO

Nathan knocks on the James front door Lydia answers

"Um, Hello Nathan. Haley isn't feeling well right now" she says in a whisper.

"Mrs. James, Please, Please, Please may I talk to Haley?" he pleaded

"Hold on" she turns and yells "Haley, someone's here for you."

Down the steps walks a tearful Haley her make-up smeared and her eyes red from crying. An image that will forever be in Nathan's mind. She walks to the door and stares at him she can't even think of what to say.

"Haley, Let me explain…I am sorry, Hales, Please Believe me." he said almost in tears.

But she just shook her head looked toward the floor and closed the door.

FLASHBACK OVER

JAMES HOUSE/ That Night

Haley walks through the front door with tons of bags from shopping.

"Mom, Dad, I am home. Where are you…." she stops in her tracks seeing her parents sitting in the living room "What's going on?" she asks putting her bags down and sitting across from them.

"Well Haley as you know me and your mother usually go on vacation during the summer" her father started "And since this summer is our 30th anniversary we decided to take and extra long one."

"That's great ,dad" Haley said excited for her parents not understating their weird attitude.

Her mother started next happily "Then this is great you'll have no problem spending the summer living with Dan and Deb." she smiled.

"Of course I'll have no problem with…WAIT! WHAT? DAN AND DEB! No way I have a problem with that" she yelled loudly "MOM, I love Dan and Deb but NOWAY in hell am I spending the summer living with NATHAN."

"Honey, it's the only choice" her father said trying to calm her "Besides it's only a summer"

"Why Can't I stay with Brooke?" Haley question feeling defeated already.

"You know we love Brooke, but Dan and Deb are our best friends we trust them more then Brooke's parents." her mom put her hand on her knee "Haley-Bob, I know you and Nathan have some issues but you two were best friends at one point and you know deep down you still care about him."

"What Your mother is trying to say is maybe a summer together is what you two need to find what you lost" her father took over "To find Love."

Haley got up quickly and backed away " Don't ever talk to me about love because you know what it's like me and Nathan's friendship a lie" and with that she walked away from her parents and her problems.
