Hey everybody! I want to thank everyone who has reviewed my story. I love reading all of them and they help me with ideas and make me want to update sooner! So thank you again and here is chapter six. There is another poll at the end of this chapter so please vote. Read and Review! :-)
Well here I am in Nathan Scott's room. Bedroom. Nathan Scott's bedroom. It is very...boyish. Obviously. I mean I didn't expect it to be girly because Nathan is definitely not girly, he is very boyish. He is a boy. Well, duh he is a boy. I just meant...ahhhhhh! I even ramble in my head. Lame. But maybe, it's just the fact that I am nervous as hell to be in Nathan's bedroom...in nothing but a towel. Don't get the wrong idea, we didn't do anything. Nate just went to put our soaking wet clothes in the drier. So, I am using this as a chance to look around...and snoop.
I smile as I see all the pictures of Nathan with Lucas when they were younger up until recently. I glance over at all the trophies sitting on shelfs around his room. I walk closer and see that they are all for basketball. I walk over to his desk and finger through some papers that are just sitting around. I feel wrong for doing this, but it's not like I am going to blackmail him or anything like that.
"Nosey much?"
I jump and turn around to see Nathan smirking at me, but my mind starts to go fuzzy because all he is wearing is boxers.
Yes, I can see every inch of his chiseled chest and I am trying so hard to keep my eyes from popping out of my sockets!
"Oh, I didn't mean to pry, I was just looking around."
"If that's your story Hales." he says still smirking.
He starts walking towards his closet and pulls out a large pair of black sweatpants and what looks to be an old basketball jersey. He turns to me again and tosses them over.
"Here. Since I am the one who got your clothes wet, the least I could do is loan you something. I don't have any sisters so these will have to do."
"Um...thanks. Where can I uhh...change?" I can't see myself, but I know I am blushing. Major time. I look at Nathan and I can see he is red too. Really red.
"Oh, yeah, sorry. Down the hall third door on the left."
"Thanks." I say before quickly exiting his room.
I can not believe how huge his clothes are on me! Seriously, the basketball jersey is more a dress than a shirt! I have to admit though, it is quite comfy. Actually, I love wearing his clothes. I feel so safe and warm in them. I never want to change. Wow. That sounds a little creepy.
"Hey, are you alright in there?" I hear Nate ask through the bathroom door.
"Oh, yeah. I just...I'm done now."
Real smooth Haley. You couldn't make it any more obvious you were fantasizing about him! What am I going to do with you?
"Okay. I was just getting worri..." he stopped midsentence when I stepped out of the bathroom.
He probably thinks I look like a dufus. Just great.
"Nathan? Are you alright?" I ask concerned.
He is still staring and I become a little embarressed. I cross my arms across my chest and bite my lower lip. I usually do this when I am unconfortable or nervous and this is no exception.
"Huh? Oh, yeah I'm fine. You just look...you look beautiful." he says then looks at his feet.
Oh. My. God.
I laugh and he looks up, hurt in his eyes.
"Oh no. I'm not laughing at you. That's really sweet, what you said. It's just...I'm wearing sweats ten times to big and an old basketball jersey that fits me like a dress more than a shirt, I have no make-up and my hair smells like saltwater," I stop for a minute and smell my hair. "eww! And fish!" I laugh and look up at him. He laughs lightly and I smile.
"Yeah well, you still look beautiful. Especially underneath."
I raise my eyebrow at him and give him a "what did you just say" look.
"I mean like what kind of person you are. Not whats underneath your...ya know. Wow. Okay. I'm just gonna stop taking right now." he says clearly embarressed and uncomfortable.
I laugh to let him know I understand and he looks at me relieved. We both start laughing and we can't stop. Once we finally get our laughter undercontrol, Nathan comes over and takes a seat on the bed by me. We both look at the other at the same time and smile. A comfortable silence over takes us. I can still hear the party in full swing downstairs and when I see the time on Nathan's clock, I remember how tired I am. As if reading my mind Nathan breaks the silence to ask..
"You getting tired? It's pretty late being 1:30 in the morning and all."
"Um, yeah actually. I am."
"Okay, well I am going to check the guestrooms to see if any are not in use (if you know what I mean) and if they all are, you get the privilage to bunk with me." he says while heading towards the door and walking out.
Five minutes later, he returns looking unbelievably happy.
"What are you all smiles for?" I joke.
"Oh nothing, just the fact that you, my lucky lady, will be staying with me tonight!"
Part of me wants to scream and run out of the room. I cannot sleep in the same bed as Nathan Scott! I have a hard enough time keeping myself undercontrol when he is in the same room as me! But the other half, a slightly bigger half, knows this is exactly what I want.
"Oh, well goodnight." I say while climbing into his bed. I am shaking and I hope he doesn't notice.
"Are you cold? You are shaking."
Crap.
"Yeah, I am fine." I finally say.
"Maybe this will help..."
I am about to ask him what will happen when I feel him climb in bed! I immediatly stiffen and I am at a lost for words. Just when I think that is big, I feel his strong muscular arms wrap around my waist and pull me to him. The heat of his body on mine is making my heart go into overdrive. Our hearts are beating in sync and it feels like I have giants doing cartwheels in my stomach.
"There, is that better?"
"..."
"Haley?"
"Um, better. Yeah. Thanks."
"I'll always be here for you."
I stay silent and I know I should say something, but I'm afraid that it will ruin the moment. So I don't say anything, and sleep soon overcomes the both of us.
Little did I know that down the hall, there are two guestrooms...
Both unused.
