The next morning when Haley woke up and looked at the clock, she realized it was already noon. She jumped out of bed and got dressed quickly, before going out to the kitchen to see what everyone was up to. In the kitchen, Brooke was on the computer, designing something new "Good afternoon tutorgirl." She said to Haley.
Haley smiled "Good afternoon tigger. Where's Julie?"
"Living room." Brooke told her.
Haley walked into the living room to find her daughter talking to someone. But not just anyone…..Nathan.
"Honey." Haley said, trying to stay happy "Why don't you come with mommy? We can go out to lunch"
Julie looked at her mother "Mommy, can Nathan come?"
Nathan smiled at Haley. Him and Haley both were trying to forget what happened the night before.
"Pleaseeeee mommy!" Julie begged.
Haley sighed "Fine. Just lunch." She said to Nathan.
"Just lunch." He agreed.
When they got to the café, Haley sat down at their usual table. The waitress came over and took their order. Haley and Nathan haven't said a word to each other yet.
"Haley." Nathan finally said to her, but looking at the door.
"Yea?" she asked
Nathan rolled is eyes "Is that……?"
Haley sighed "Why is he here?" she asked, looking at the person who just walked in the door.
Of course, the man at the door came walking right over to their table.
"Well, well, well. How are the lovely Scott's doing?" he asked
Haley sat up straight "Oh…no, we're not----"
"Married. We're not married." Nathan finished.
"Well, you were the last time I was here." He said to them.
Haley put her head in her hands.
"Keller really enjoys seeing you." The man added.
"Chris. Why are you here?" Nathan asked.
"Coming through town." Chris said, pulling up a chair next to Nathan and Haley.
Nathan and Haley both stood up at the same time "Um, we were….just leaving." Nathan said to him.
"But we didn't get our food!" Julie complained.
"We'll go somewhere else." Haley assured her daughter.
After Nathan and Haley got outside, they both started to laugh.
"Of all people.." Haley laughed.
"God, I forgot how much I hated him." Nathan added.
"Mommy." Julie said, tugging on Haley's shirt "Why did that man say you were married to Nathan?"
Haley looked at Nathan then back to her daughter "Well honey, I guess some people fall in love….but then realize it wasn't….." Haley paused.
"The right time." Nathan finished.
"Why isn't it the right time?" Julie asked
"Maybe they weren't ready." Haley said, ready to get out of the conversation.
Julie sighed "So that's why you and Nathan act so weird…because you're in love."
Haley and Nathan's eyebrows both went up, and they blushed "No honey."
Julie nodded, disagreeing with her mother "But mommy, you act different around him."
Nathan smiled "How does she act different?"
Haley gave Nathan a warning look.
"Well." Julie started "She's……happier."
Haley took her daughter's hand and started to walk
