Haley sat with her eyes wide open devising a plan to get out of her shell. She couldn't sleep, as she looked at the clock, she saw that was literally time for her to get up. She knew that to complete the first stage of unraveling her image she will need the key to unlock her soon-to-be co-star. Which meant a trip to Taylor's closet; she knew her sister would still be asleep, she always was. As she tip-toed into her sister's room, Haley could hear her sister's snoring, and she shuddered in repulse. As she stepped into Taylor's closet, she took a deep breath and assured herself that she was doing the right thing. After rummaging through skanky outfits and dress no longer than 3 ft if that, she found the perfect out fit to pull off the Act 1, Scene 1 of her plan.
Haley sat at her vanity thinking would this plan really work. Could she really get the Nathan Scott to like her, the girl who couldn't even cheat without feeling guilty; the girl who couldn't even let her parents know that she had bought the Breaking Benjamin album and hid her romance novels under her stuffed animals in the back of her closet. How could this girl shed her goody-two-shoes image without destroying her morals? If she had the courage she would have gone into Taylor's room again and found some liquid courage, but she looked at herself in stride. She was wearing a jean mini (stolen from Taylor's closet), her own Fall Out Boy T-shirt that she vowed she would never wear in public again since it shrunk in the wash, and a pair of baby blue footless leggings with her classic black high-top Chuck Taylors.
She walked down the stairs with her head held high; she walked through her kitchen where the twins, Taylor and their dog all sat eating breakfast. Haley said good morning to them and walked out the door. Taylor rubbed her eyes to see if it was true, was her little sister wearing her mini. One of the twins just sat there with his mouth open with cereal fell out.
"Pinch me, that was not my little sister that just walked outta here," said one of the twins. Right after he had said that his brother pinched him out of his daze.
"Nope it wasn't a dream cause you just flinched, puss," stated the other twin. Once he had said that all hell broke loose until Jimmy James had to separate them.
"Now what is God's name is going on here," asked and very ticked off Pastor James, "who would like to explain? Joey, Jon, or Taylor would you like to put your two cents in because it looks like you're going to anyway."
All of a sudden the whole house became an uproar of noise; all Pastor James could understand was it had something to do with Haley. He looked down and shook his head; he saw that their dog, Lulu, had not witnessed the out break of noise, but had slept through the whole thing. Once he had calmed the others down the asked them what was all the commotion about.
"She wasn't herself dad," stated Joey.
"She stole my skirt daddy," whined Taylor.
"I don't know why you can't just leave her be she wants to treated like the adult that she is and instead all you guys do is treat her like a kid," said Jon, putting his opinion into the open air.
"I think Jon's right," agreed Pastor James as he sent three whinny seniors off to school.
Nathan stood at the front door of the tutor center with his hand on the knob. I can't do this I don't even know which one she is, thought Nathan. Right as he had enough courage to turn the knob the bell rung for the next period. Thank God, thought Nathan, it was time for History; as he started to turn away from the center he saw a girl walk out and lock up the tutor center. He couldn't help but stare down the hallway after her, the way her hips swayed, and her golden brown hair flowed down her back. Who was she and why hadn't he notice her was all that was going through Nathan's mind right then.
He walked up to his locker and saw one of his teammate standing right next to him; he decided to ask him if he knew who the girl was.
"Hey Joey! Do you know who that girl is?"
"Yeah, I do. I wouldn't get your hopes up," said Joey with a smirk on his face.
"Why do you say that," replied Nathan with the same smirk. Then Joey's face got serious.
"Because she's my little sister Haley and if you ever touch her I will break your legs. I may be a preacher's son, but she's my dad's pride and joy. So whatever is going through your little mind forget it really quick."
With that Joey slammed his locker door and left with a smile on his face like he had set someone in their place and told Nathan that he would see him at practice. Shit, thought Nathan; now how was he supposed to get close to Haley?
AN: I know my chapters are short, I'm sorry. Just so you know Taylor failed a grade so she's in the same grade as the twins and they're seniors and Haley, and Nathan are all Juniors.
