"Morning future mother. How are you this morning?" Nathan asked haley happily. Haley looked at him with a glare.
"I'm three months pregnant and i'm huge! My ankles are swollen and i'm wearing your jeans." nathan just smiled at her.
"Well you look very cute in them my dear." Haley smiled at him despite her best efforts not to.
"You're such a suck up."
"Anything to make my wife happy," he said smirking. "So the guys wanna meet us down at the cafe are you up for it?"
"Yes! I am craving a piece of Karen's chocolate cheesecake." Nathan walked over and grabbing Haley's hand helped her off the couch.
"Chocolate cheesecake what a thing to crave."
"Hey i'm pregnant i'm allowed to splurge. I'm eating for two here!" Nathan laughed at her.
"Come on let's get going." Together they walked out the door.

The bell to the cafe rang as haley and nathan walked in. "Wow she's big. Either her baby's going to have an enormous head or she's having twins," Peyton whispered to Brooke.
Brooke laughed, "Be nice," she whispered, "Don't ever tell a hormone raging pregnant woman she is huge." Both of them laughed.
"Hey hales," Lucas said giving her a hug. Then he leaned down and kissed her belly. "Hey niece or nephew." Haley smiled at this.
"Hey Hales? When's your next doctors appointment?" Peyton asked.
"Um...This afternoon. Why do you ask?" Peyton shifted uncomfortably.
"Well i've been thinking. Do you think it's possible you might be pregnant with twins?" At this remark both nathan and haley froze in place and turned to look at eachother. Both were watching for the others reaction. haley to see how this would make nathan feel and Nathan to see how haley would feel.
"I guess it's possible," whispered Haley still watching nathan. "Nathan say something." nathan smiled not wanting her to think this was a bad thing. either way these were his children and he was going to raise them to the best of his ability. He had sworn to himself that he would never push them like Dan had pushed him.
"Hales just think, having two children to spoil instead of one. That'd be great. I love you hales and no matter what i'm going to stand by you." Haley got a tear in her eyes and hugged nathan. Wiping her tears she looked around.
"Da these pregnancy hormones." Everyone laughed and they all sat down at a booth. "Karen," Haley said as Karen approached, "I hope you have some fresh chocolate cheese cake made." karen smiled at Haley who was now like her daughter in law even though she had already been like a daughter to her.
"Of course. One big piece coming up." They all laughed as karen walked away. "I take it the rest of you want your usual burger and fries? peyton no onions chocolate shake, Lucas no mustard chocolate shake, Brooke w/cheese strawberry shake, nathan extra pickles rootbeer float, and jake no onion no pickle large Pepsi." All the kids smiled at her that she remembered this. it goes to show how much time they spent there. All of them went about talking as they enjoyed a nice lunch.

Nathan and Haley walked up to Haley's house holding hands. Haley had a growing knot in her stomach as she twisted the door knob. "Mom? Dad?" she called in.
"My baby!" Haley's mom shouted racing over to give her a hug.
"Haley!" said her dad giving her a hug. "Nathan," he said shaking his hand. Haley's mom gave Nathan a hug which made him smile.
"Yeah, um...mom, dad we needed to talk to you." At those words Haley could see her mom and dad's face straighten.
"We'll go in the family room," said her mother leading them there. Once everyone had had a seat and Nathan was beside her Haley got ready to talk.
"Mom, Dad i'm not going to skip around this. I'm pregnant." Haley's mom stood up quickly.
"I knew it! Haley you're supposed to be the smart one! What are you thinking getting pregnant? I thought we taught you better than this." Haley tried to stay rational as tears came to her eyes. She could see her father trying to stay calm also.
"Mom i'm married and i'm going to finish highschool and..."
"No, Haley you don't know what life is until you've had a child. That child is going to be your life." Her mother shouted fiercely, her eyes like daggers, "I thought i taught you better."
Haley couldn't take anymore. "That's it mom that's all you did, taught me!" Nathan tried to hold Haley down, but she stood up. "You never let me make my own mistakes you just tried to teach me everything. Matt was the older brother. He was had all the girlfriends, stayed out late. Then you had Rachel. Rachel who always had the boyfriends and the makeup and the dates for saturday night. Where was I? I was the little sister." Haley stopped for a moment to take a breath.
"I never did anything wrong! They used to hate me for that mom! It was always 'well you let Haley do this' and 'she didn't have to do that.' I hated it. They thought I got all the attention, but i didn't because they always had it. One of them was always in trouble or getting talked to or lectured and I was just there. Expected to get good grades, to do my homework, to get a boyfriend in highschool. So now you choose to notice me!"
Haley's mom stood shocked along with Nathan and Mr.James. Haley stormed out of the door and Nathan with a last look at her parents chased after her.

"Haley! Haley, slow down!" Haley finally stopped running and collapsed on the river court where she had once spent so much time watching Lucas play ball. Nathan caught up to her and enveloped her in his arms. Right now she seemed so small and fragile to him even with her growing stomach. He wished he could take away everything that had just happened.
"Nathan what if she's right?" she cried into his shirt.
"She's not Haley," he said sternly. Haley however looked up at him.
"What if I am too young. I mean we're only 17. How am I supposed to graduate?"
"Haley look at me." Haley looked up at Nathan who was staring at her intently. "You are perfect. You're a great friend, a great wife, and you're going to be a great mom. I promise you that no matter what you will finish Highschool. I don't care if i personally have to stay home and watch our child or children whichever it is. Haley we're going to get thru this."
"I love you Nathan."
"I love you too."
