Chapter 2

Once Nathan and Chloe had walked away from Haley's door, Nathan couldn't help the nagging feeling in the pit of his stomach that something was wrong with her. Not only was it the fact that she just didn't seem like the old bubbly Haley, but also the fact that she didn't have one Christmas decoration up. Not one. Which was extremely unhaley like. She used to be like a Christmas bunny, always jumping up and down baking Christmas treats and organising Christmas fates…. Oh and you can't forget the silly little dangly Christmas tree earring's she used to wear every year.

So to see her with no earrings and not a trace of decorations was definitely a surprise….but hey seeing her live in the same road as him was a surprise too. However he had a slight feeling that maybe his happiness towards the fact that they lived near each other was slightly shadowed by her sadness.

Something had definitely happened to her over the years and he was determined to find out what. After its not like I wont see her, he thought with a smirk plastered on his face.

………………………

'Tis the season to be jolly' shral la lalalala dalalala'

'Could this get any more annoying' Haley thought as her and Brooke was passing the Christmas carollers the next day on their way through the crowded mall. 'They just have to remind us don't they' she sighed.

"Hey babe what ya thinking bout?" Brooke asked linking her arm through Haley's trying to show her some support. Of course she knew what she was thinking about, she was her best friend after all, but she figured Haley needed to let her feelings out instead of keeping them bottled up inside.

"Nothing" She replied simply trying to keep her eyes fixed on the very appealing lamp shade in the window. Well would have been appealing if they lived 80 years ago that is.

Brooke looked at her as if she was a crazy person "Oh right, so that's why that horrible...'"scrunching up her nose in disgust '"Thing has your attention right? Because yeah I can probably see you're Nan loving it." She said which surprisingly made Haley laugh. It wasn't so much the thing she said that made her chuckle it was just….Brooke being Brooke. She seriously loved this girl in front of her; she always seemed to make her feel better, even if it was a little. She was still the best friend she could ever have asked for.

Seeing Haley smile again she decided to try and touch the tragic subject again.

"Seriously tho Hales please tell me what going on in that pretty head of yours, I want to help." She pleaded desperately.

"Oh you do help me Brooke, seriously you do….but I don't think anyone could help me right now." She said quietly, still looking at the surroundings around her, feeling nothing but nausea when she looked at the beautiful Christmas tree decoration displayed in the centre.

"Gosh Brooke, I hate this feeling, I feel like flipping scrooge for god sakes, I mean why did this have to happen, huh? Why? Why me? Why mark? Why Zoë? Why did that little piece of heaven in my world have to get ripped away from me in such a horrible way?" She basically screamed, receiving a few people to look their way.

Seeing Haley like that brought tears to Brookes eyes, walking closer to her she wrapped her arms securely round her back and basically clung onto her, showing her that she was there, and that she would always be there for her.

"I know it's not fair Haley, I know that you loved them both, but you HAVE to move on, its what they would have wanted and YOU know that." She said encouragingly,

"I know that Brooke, I know that" She said quietly "But you know what I don't get? I did move on, for a little while at least, I finally accepted that I'm no longer a wife, That I'm no longer a mother, I actually began to move on with my life, so why does it all have to come up again?"

"Only you can answer that honey, only you can answer that."

"ERGH" Haley stressed. "Well okay you know what, were just going to stop talking about is because I'm just going to breakdown again and I'm sure that is not what all those kid's want to see" She said laughing slightly and pointing towards the queue of kids waiting to see Santa.

"Well lets shop" Brooke singed dragging her into the nearest shop.

………………….

"Hey princess, what's got you all excited?" Nathan chuckled as he strapped his daughter in the car.

"Duh" She said with the cutest look on her face, showing her dad that she fault he was stupid.

"Daddy we gwanna see Santata clause, he gunna give me a pwesent." She said excitedly thinking about all the things she wanted to ask him to get her.

"Haha yeah he is princess." Nathan grinned, starting the car to go to the mall.

……………

"Daddy I love Santa" Chloe squealed as they walked out of the Igloo placed in the centre of the mall. "He gave me Barbie..she's very pretty isont she daddy?"

"Wow she is very pretty clo, BUT of course she isn't as pretty as you" He whispered in her ear before collecting her in his arms to spin her around playfully.

"DADDY!" Was what practically the whole building heard at that moment.

Hearing a little girl scream Haley and Brooke turnt sharply around from the window they were dreamingly gazing in.

Haley smiled when she saw who it was. "Hey Nathan" She shouted, grabbing his attention, surprising herself best friend in the process.

Brooke kinked her eyebrow up and looked at the man approaching the two and then looked back at her bestfriend.

"Wait you know that hotti?" She asked surprised.

"Yeah that's Nathan, you know Nathan Scott my old best friend" Haley filled in quickly looking in the shop window to make sure she looked presentable.

"OOH Nathan Scott the boy you were in love with?" Brooke asked nudging her playfully.

Haley quickly looked shook her head and looked back at Brooke. "Brooke! I was not in love with him!" Haley defended herself secretly knowing that Brooke was true, back in high school she was in fact in love with her best friend.

"Ooh really? Well Nathan is the boy in all the stories you told me about high school right?"

Haley took one look at Nathan who was dangerously close and then back at Brooke giving her an evil glare "Brooke!" She said quietly but very sternly "Shut it!"

"Hey Nathan"...
