"Doesn't anybody know where she is playing? I mean one of us had to keep in touch right?" Everyone shook their heads no, which shocked Lucas. "Wow!"
"Why didn't you Lucas? Or Nathan? Or Peyton? You three were her best friends. So Brooke was the only one that was an actual friend out of the group. I can't believe you didn't phone Nathan, aren't you the one that's in love with her?" Nathan stared at Mouth and Mouth went red with embarrassment. "Sorry."
"No Mouth you're right. WE are horrible friends. We didn't even call her or ask when any of her shows were so we could go to them." Lucas sat down and put his head in his hands. Haley was his best friend and he didn't even think to phone her.
"Lucas does your Mom maybe know where she is?" Lucas looked over at Nathan and shook his head 'no'. "Why the hell does no one know where she is!"
"I know where she is." Everyone looked over at the door. Taylor, Haley's sister was standing there. "She's where she needs to be right now and you don't need to go and ruin it for her okay. Give her time, she'll come back."
"Taylor, please tell us!" Taylor shook her head and walked to the counter, ordering what she wanted. Nathan walked over to her and sat down beside her. "Please tell us where she is!"
"No, and if I was to tell anyone it wouldn't be you. You're the one you broke her heart." Karen handed Taylor her food and Taylor left. Nathan sighed at sat down on the couch again.
"Well, I guess we wait for them to come home." Nathan didn't like Jake's idea. He wanted Haley back now, so he could tell her he loved her.
"Haley come back with me, please." Brooke was going back to Tree Hill after being with Haley for about 2 weeks.
"Sorry Brooke, I can't I still have 5 more places where I am playing. I'm sorry okay, I'll be back in like 1 month." Brooke shook her head and grabbed Haley into a hug.
"I don't want to leave you Haley. Just come home, everyone misses you."
"Brooke, if everyone missed me, then whey didn't they keep in touch?" Brooke pulled away from Haley and looked at her with a sad smile.
"I know babe but I'm close to getting Nathan to admit he loves you." Haley let go of Brooke and opened the door.
"You should go Brooke and stop trying with Nathan because he had his chance and he blew it. I'll miss you." Brooke hugged her again and walked out the door, Haley closed it and leaned against the door. She let the tears fall freely from her eyes, she didn't want Brooke to go and she wanted desperately to go with her. Haley jumped up and grabbed her suitcase, guitar, and whatever else she had. She ran out the door, to catch Brooke. Brooke was standing there, waiting for her. Haley laughed and threw her stuff in Brooke's trunk.
"I know you so well Ms. James. Now come on lets go home!"
Nathan, Lucas, Peyton, and Jake were sitting at the rivercourt, staring at the river. No one was saying anything, just thinking about Brooke and Haley.
"So." Everyone looked at Jake, who smiled at them. "We can't just sit here and think they're never going to come back because they will."
"Yeah but what if they don't. I don't want to loose my two best friends." Jake put an arm around her and she leaned into him. Lucas looked at the two and wished Brooke was there with him. He hated himself that he didn't keep in touch with Haley, they were supposed to be best friends.
"I wish so much that they would just show up already." Everyone looked at Lucas and nodded in agreement.
"I just want to tell Haley how I feel." Everyone looked at Nathan surprised. Nathan smiled at them and looked at his hands. "Of course I love her, I always have. I just didn't want to ruin our friendship."
"Why didn't you tell her how you felt after you knew she loved you?" Nathan looked at Peyton and shrugged.
"I was scared and I hated myself for being the reason she left. Then when I found out that she was with that Chris guy, well then I figured she didn't love me anymore." Peyton reached over Lucas and smacked Nathan across the head. "What the hell?"
"If you would have told her she would have come back and Brooke would have never left. YOU ARE SO STUPID NATHAN SCOTT!" Peyton got up and walked over to her car, Jake following her.
"I know I'm stupid Lucas, so don't say anything. I wish she was here." Lucas nodded and stood up.
"C'mon, let's go to the Café." Nathan nodded and the two got into Nathan's car, driving over to the Café in silence.
WELCOME TO TREE HILL
"AHH We are here, aren't you excited to be back Haley? I am! I mean like I am still mad at everyone though. Maybe Nathan will confess his undying love for you! Lucas will probably cry when he sees me he'll be so HAPPY!" Haley laughed at Brooke. Brooke looked at her and grinned. "I'm excited!"
"Oh me too. They were really mad when I phoned and said I left the tour. I don't care though, I've missed home. So Brooke, are you still living in my house?" Brooke nodded. "You're going to still stay, right?"
"Of course Tutorgirl, I love you!" Haley nodded and looked ahead. "So what if he tells you he loves you?"
"Then he has to suffer by waiting. I don't want to be with someone who doesn't know if he loves me or not. Anyway who cares, he thinks I'm dating Chris!" The two girls laughed but stopped as they made their way into Tree Hill. The passed by Karen's Café and saw that Peyton, Jake, Lucas and Nathan were all there. They decided against going there just yet and went to their place first. Haley laid down in her bed and sighed, she was glad to be home. Brooke came running into the room and jumped on the bed with her.
"So, do you want to go to Karen's Café?" Haley looked at Brooke and shook her head.
"I just want to sit her and relax for a minute. Let my head clear, you know." Brooke nodded and laid next to Haley. They eventually both fell asleep, not knowing that one of their friends had driven by the house and knew that they were back.
