Author's Note: Here is the next Chapter! Enjoy! :)
Haley took a deep breath and looked through Nathan's recent calls. She saw two numbers that were unknown in his phone. Haley called one of them.
A young man answered the call. "Hey Nate. Did you get it sorted yet?" The man asked.
As Haley panicked and hanged up. "Oh my gosh. Who was that?" Haley looked through his messages, to find messages from the other unknown number she looked through it there were messages that said, 'I need you Nate." And "I think I'm in love with you, we need to be together, or things will change." Haley's eyes widened and she quickly got out of his messages and put his phone back where it was before she touched it, she quickly got up and called Quinn.
"Hey Hales. How are you?" Quinn asked.
"Not good. Listen, has Clay been acting weird lately?" Haley asked quickly.
"What's wrong Hales? Clay's has been acting kind of sneaky lately. Why?" Quinn started to sound concerned.
"I think Nathan and Clay are hiding something from us. Nathan is always on his phone he hasn't spent any time with me. I'm getting concerned about it, and when I ask him about it he just denies it and tells me he can't tell and to just trust him and usually walks away. I... Looked through his phone earlier Quinn. I' m not proud of it but, I had to do it. I was curious." Haley sighed, but felt better that she told someone what she had done.
"Oh, what did you find?" Quinn asked.
"There were two unknown numbers, so I called one of them and a guy answered asking me if Nate sorted something out. And I also looked through his messages and there were just messages after messages from someone who I think is a girl she kept on saying that she needs Nate and that they should be together. That might be why Nate wasn't wearing his wedding ring. I found it in the bathroom Quinn. I don't know what to do, I feel guilty for snooping through his phone like that but I needed to find out at least something, Nathan won't tell me anything!" Haley explained, she sighed again.
"Okay Haley, calm down we will figure this out together. Maybe Clay is just helping Nathan out with whatever they need to sort out. I'll call you if I find out anything from Clay okay? Just try to be happy and try not to argue while Jamie is there. I can always take him out one day for a bit if you need to talk to Nathan and maybe Clay alone?"
Haley nods. "Okay thanks for listening Quinn, I feel like everyone is hiding secrets. I'll see you later bye Quinn." Haley waits for Quinn to say 'bye' back and she hangs up. Haley heard the back door shut she jumps from the sound of the door and walks into the kitchen where the sweaty, out of breath boys were standing.
"Did you boys have fun?" Haley asks, trying to sound hopeful.
"Yeah, it was good." Nathan replied. Nathan's phone started to ring and vibrate on the kitchen bench Nathan sighs and looks at his phone.
"Jamie, go upstairs and shower and get ready for dinner okay?" Haley looks at Jamie, he nodded and slowly walked to the stairs.
"Nathan. I need to talk to you again." Haley sounded more serious this time.
"Fine Hales." Nathan said, as he turned off his phone. "What's wrong?" Nathan sat down on the kitchen bench looking at Haley.
"Nathan I want to honest with you as much as I can so I need to make a confession okay?" Haley said as she looked at Nathan.
"Okay, I'm listening. You finally have my full attention."
"When you were outside before playing basketball with Jamie, you left your phone sitting on the kitchen bench and I." Haley stops and sighs. "Went through your phone Nathan." Haley said as she put her head down.
"What? Why Haley?" Nathan started to raise his voice it sounded annoyed and angry.
"Nathan, I know that you're hiding something from me and you're not telling me anything so I had to find out something. And from what I've heard and seen on your phone I think you should tell me the truth right now Nathan?" Haley gets closer to Nathan. "What is going on with you?"
"No Haley. I can't tell you right now." Nathan said still raising his voice he sounded more annoyed than ever.
"Why not? Whatever happened to not keeping secrets from each other no matter how bad things get?"
"Because Haley I can't. I don't want this to ruin us, so please just let me sort this out. And when I'm ready I'll tell you. But for right now, it stays a secret. And don't go through my phone again Haley." Nathan bangs down his hand on the table and gets up in frustration.
"I had a right to go through it! I wanted answers Nathan!" Haley started to shout.
"This conversation is over Haley." Nathan turns around to walk away.
"ARE YOU CHEATING ON ME WITH ANOTHER GIRL NATHAN! I SEEN THE MESSAGES. I JUST WANT TO KNOW THE TRUTH!" Haley yells loudly, as tears start to run down her cheeks.
Nathan turns around. "No Haley I'm not!" Nathan shouts back at her.
"Then why were there messages from another girl!" Haley cries even more.
"Haley It's not what it looks like honestly. I would never hurt you like that." Nathan explains.
"You know what I don't want to hear it anymore I know what I saw." Haley goes to walk out.
Nathan grabs her arm. "Hales, please believe me? I'm telling you the truth I swear. There are just some things I need to work out okay, just give me some time."
Haley shakes her head. "I don't know if I can wait much longer Nathan. I want my husband back." Haley breaks free of Nathan's grip on her arm, as she walks out to find Jamie standing in the lounge room as he had heard everything. Haley wipes her tears away and kneels down in front of Jamie.
"I love you James Lucas Scott. Everything will be okay." Haley hugs her son, and walks upstairs as the door slams shut.
Nathan walks out to see Jamie just standing there was a sad look on his face. He walks over to him. "Want to go for ice cream Jame? I think we need to have a chat?"
Jamie nods. "Okay dad."
Nathan wrote Haley a note.
Haley James Scott.
I'm taking Jamie out for ice cream, I think I need to cheer him up.
When I get back, we need to sort some things out okay.
We will be back soon.
I love you Haley James Scott.
Love,
Nathan xo.
Nathan put the note on the kitchen bench hoping that she will see it, they left for ice cream. Nathan drove to the River court while they sat on the bench and ate their ice creams.
"Dad?" Jamie asked, while taking a lick from his chocolate ice cream.
"Yeah buddy?" Nathan looks at Jamie.
"Are you and mamma going to be okay? I'm worried. You guys have been fighting a lot. I think that you should spend more time with mamma, she's lonely and I know she's been sad lately, she really needs you." Jamie said and kept on eating his ice cream.
"I know buddy, your mother and I will be okay. I promise." Nathan faked a smile and rubbed his son's back.
Haley eventually left her bedroom and walked downstairs as it was very quiet. "Nathan? Jamie?" Haley yelled out, all she could hear was her voice echoing throughout the house. Haley looked in every room and ended up in the kitchen to see the note from Nathan she read it and slightly smiled. She still misses him even though he is here, she started to think about Nathan it made her smile. The doorbell interrupted her thoughts. Haley sighed and put the note down and walked towards the door, she turned the handle to see a brunette girl standing there.
"Is Nathan here?" The girl asked, she was almost shouting. "He has his phone turned off I haven't been able to reach him for an hour and a half now!"
"Uh, I'm sorry who are you?" Haley asked, but in the back of her mind she had an idea on who it was.
"Where is he?" She yelled, and pushed Haley out of the way she was looking around inside the house. "Nathan where are you?" There was no reply back. "Nathan?" She kept on shouting out his name a few times.
Haley turned around to face her. "Your that bitch that is trying to steal my husband away from me aren't you?" Haley yelled at her.
The girl laughed. "I know exactly who you are. And after I'm done with you he will be your ex husband. Oh, I'm Isabella. Isabella Tokinns." An evil smile appeared on her face.
"Excuse me. Nathan is mine. Nathan is not here. I think it's time you get your insecure, skank ass out of my house right now!" Haley screamed right in her face.
"Fine, but I'll be back!" The girl yells. She goes to walk out, but turns around and faces Haley she punches Haley in the face. "Don't ever yell in my face again. And it will get worse if you and Nathan don't get a divorce. We shared something special, we slept together and it was fantastic, that was when he went away to see my brother for business. Nathan belongs to me, you bitch." She yells again and walks out.
Haley holds her eye. And slams the door behind her locking it. Haley falls to the ground crying.
"We should go home Jame, your mum's probably waiting for us since it's getting late." Nathan gets up.
Jamie nods and follows his dad to their car, soon after they arrived back at their house to notice that the house was dark Nathan unlocked the front door and walked in and turned the lights on in the house. He finds Haley in the lounge room crying into her knees. Nathan rushes over to her.
"Hales, what's wrong?" Nathan asked worried.
"Nothing Nathan I'm perfectly fine." Haley lied as he could tell she was being sarcastic and she was lying. She still wasn't looking at him.
"Haley look at me please?" Nathan looked down at her to try and see her face.
Haley slowly looked up at her husband, with tears still running down her face and a black eye. "This is what's wrong Nathan?" Haley pointed to her black eye and throws her hands up in the air. "I'm so confused Nathan!" Haley shouts.
"Who did this to you?" Nathan asked, getting closer to her.
"Your crazy new girlfriend Nathan! She showed up here asking me where you were, threatening me and then she punched me. This needs to stop right now Nathan! I need to know what's going on before I get hurt again or worse if anyone else does because of this!" Haley gets up and turns around to see Jamie standing there.
"Mamma are you okay?" Jamie looked at her eye, and ran to her he hugged her tight.
"I'm fine Jame." Haley kneels down to his height. "Can you go up to your room and I'll come up and tuck you in I'll be there in a few minutes?" Haley asked, faking a smile.
Jamie nodded, as he kissed her cheek the same cheek that had the black eye. "Okay mamma." Jamie ran upstairs.
Haley turns around to face Nathan. "Fix this Nathan! Please? Make everything better for us, for Jamie." Haley begged. "She told me some things. I don't know whether to believe her or not." Haley sighed.
"Don't believe anything that she said to you Hales." Haley walked over and gently kissed him on the cheek. She goes to walk out but stops and turns around.
"Nathan Scott, no matter what I will fight for you." Haley takes a deep breath. "Always."
"And Forever." Nathan quickly finished her sentence. They both smile.
Haley walks out, and leaves Nathan just standing there in shock and a worried look on his face. Haley slowly walked upstairs and into Jamie's room he was already in bed.
"Goodnight Jamie." Haley kisses her son's forehead and looked at him.
"Goodnight mamma. I know that we will be okay because you and dad love each other and I know that you guys can survive anything." Jamie smiles.
Haley just stood there smiling. "Thanks buddy." Haley walks out slightly shutting the door.
Haley looked in the hallway to see Nathan standing there holding an ice pack. Haley ran to him she hugged him tight. "I love you Nathan Scott so much." Haley yelled. "Even though I'm extremely annoyed at you. I still love you." Haley admitted.
"I love you too Haley James Scott." Nathan kisses her head. "I promise I'll tell you everything soon. I'm sorry for what she did to your eye you didn't deserve that, and just don't believe anything that came out of her mouth because it's probably a lie. Just remember I would never do anything to hurt our family." Nathan apologized and sounded serious. Nathan hands Haley the ice pack he got for her eye.
"I'll forgive you when you tell me to the truth because honestly I don't know who to believe and what to believe anymore I just want us to go back to normal already. Come on, let's go to sleep it's been a long day." Haley drags Nathan to the bedroom, as Haley fell asleep in Nathan's arms. Nathan laid there looking at Haley and smiling thinking about how perfect she was and he wasn't letting her go ever. Nathan stared at the ceiling of their bedroom and eventually fell asleep.
