Well here goes the next chapter, hope you enjoy.

Italics are Haley's thoughts. – Thanks For Reading!

Another longish chapter for you guys.

This is still the same night of the party.

Haley sat in her room, it was just past 2am, she had been home for about fifteen minutes. She lay sprawled across her bed, still a little tipsy but she preferred it to be that way just now.

FLASHBACK

She danced around in one room herself for most of the night, she wasn't having fun but she supposed it was better than being at home and crying about Michelle and Ryan. She'd rather be here dancing, at least the drink was subsiding the pain for a while.

After a while of dancing she began to walk around so she could move away from being in the one spot all the time, as she was walking someone else was walking by her and spilled their drink on her.

"Hey watch it whore"

"Uhm I was going to say sorry but for that little comment I won't"

"Do you not understand what you just done? Are you thick or something, geese you probably are, you know since you have blonde hair, right"

"Ohh you bitch," at this the blonde curly haired girl lunged at Haley.

She slapped Haley's face and in return Haley pulled her hair and pulled her down to the ground. She then punched her in the face. She punched her so hard that he nose began to bleed.

She then let the girl's hair go and then walked away, as she was walking again the girl ended up on her back.

"I don't think so, you don't get away that easy!"

"How many times do I need to beat your ass girl? Go away"

The girl then threw a punch at Haley but her arm caught her punch and then she held the girl's arm.

"Listen here girlie, piss off ok, I don't want to fight with you, I don't even want to be seen with you ok, you are a loser now go away." As Haley said this she was twisting the girl's wrist, the girl then nodded, as Haley released her hand she walked away. Haley looked around and to her amazement there was a crowd that had gathered to watch the fight.

"Do any of you know who that girl was by any chance?" Haley asked the crowd.

"Yeah her name's Peyton Sawyer." Some random shouted.

END OF FLASHBACK

After that she had decided to come home, it was all beginning to be too much. First day at a new college, she finds out her best friend and boyfriend were cheating on her and then she goes to a party and meets a hot boy and turns him down and then she ends up in a fight with a complete bitchy girl and now she lies here on her bed regretting her whole day.

Haley got up off her bed and began to dance, there was no music but she felt like dancing again, she did this quite a lot it relaxed her to dance. She didn't need music, she was a good enough dancer to just dance freestyle and make it look good and not a rushed mess. As she danced she heard something out in her corridor. She ran to her door and opened it.

EARLIER THAT NIGHT

Nathan had looked around the party and couldn't find Lucas so he decided it would be best to just go home, Luke probably already went home, too bored. Nathan had a great night he had a good few beers and danced with a few girls. He liked the look of this place. The parties were good, the girls were really, really hot but there was one girl that stuck in his head. He hoped he would maybe see her again at another party. As he stumbled home he looked in his pocket for his key to his dorm room. When he opened the door and burst in he was welcomed with his brother having sex with one of his best friends, Brooke.

"Ohh Um..Ehh Hi guys"

"Oh Nathan, Oh Godd" Brooke then pulled the covers over herself "Sorry Nate"

"Nathan you don't mind do you? We're kind of busy here you know?" Lucas said.

"Right, so where am I supposed to go exactly?"

"I don't know but we're busy so bye"

At this Nathan walked out and slammed the door behind him, he was mad, this was his first day on campus and on his first night he had nowhere to sleep, he would have to just sleep outside the room until the morning or until Brooke went away. He was still kind of happy that Brooke and his brother had sorted their whole love triangle thing out.

At this a girl popped her head out of her door, he looked around to see her.

"Oh hot girl, I see you lived a couple of doors down from me"

So there's that hot guy from tonight, her mind went blank completely blank, he was so hot.

"Ehh yeah I suppose so, but why are you sitting out here on the floor hot guy?"

"Well my roomie and his girlfriend are in there at the moment if you get me"

"O right, yeah I get you, well if you want to come in here you can, I have room if you want"

"Okay then, thanks by the way."

As Nathan walked into the room, he could see that she hadn't completely unpacked her things yet, so he guessed she may be in the same year as him, just starting. He then assessed her face, he could now see her better, she looked familiar to him but he shrugged it off.

"So do I get to know your name yet, hot girl?"

"My name is Haley, hot guy and do I get to know yours?"

"Mines is Nathan, Nathan Scott"

Scott that brought something back to Haley's head, she couldn't quite figure out where she had heard that name before, but she just shook it off. She was probably just being stupid.

"Is this your first year here?"

"Yeah, you?"

"Yeah same, um not being pushy but where am I to sleep?" Nathan asked looking around the room.

"Well you could sleep in my bed with me if you want" she said with a slight smirk on her face.

"It's just well won't that be a bit awkward?"

"We can make it not awkward, okay and anyway we're big grown ups I think we can share a bed without doing anything you know."

"Yeah well I could go some sleep just now if you don't mind"

"Yeah same I'll just flip the switch."

As they both climbed into bed, it first being slightly awkward but then calmed down, it actually felt okay with the situation.

Haley felt a small spark between the two, she didn't know what it was but it was there, there was definitely something between then some chemistry.

As she opened her eyes and saw him get cosy she moved slightly closer to him and lay right beside him, really close.

"Are you okay Haley?"

"Uhm yeah, I'm sorry I'm a bit too close, sorry I'm just used to. .." at this she broke down into tears. She still just lay beside him.

Nathan wasn't sure what to do, he had never had this before, just lying in bed with a girl and not having sex with them. This felt different, he wrapped an arm around her.

"Haley it'll be okay, I'm not sure why you're crying but everything will be okay, I promise." He didn't even know why he was saying this but he felt the urge to make her feel like she had someone, he liked her – a lot.

He then kissed her forehead "Goodnight Haley"

At this Haley got closer to Nathan, she buried herself into his big chest, she had never felt this safe before. Not once had Ryan ever been this nice to her.

"Goodnight Nathan" Haley whispered while her tears subsided.

Well my dear readers, we now have some Naley and Brucas.

We also have Haley, Lucas, Nathan, Michelle, Ryan, Brooke And Peyton all on one floor of a dorm house.

Shall be interesting. I know some of you will probably have some questions about this chapter but all shall be reveled, sooner or perhaps later.
