AN: HELLO PEOPLE! Thank you so much for the reviews and PLEASE keep on reviewing!

For those of you who are confused let me clarify; Haley is in a coma and she is dreaming of what her subconscious thinks life would be like with Nathan by her side.

The next two to three chapters are going to be in Haley's dream world and a couple of little tad bits of how the Scott-Jageliski-Davis family is dealing with everything.

I am sorry it's so late guys! My muse abandoned me for a while there BUT on the bright side its back! I am not exactly happy with this chapter but I did my best and when I went with the dream thing I never realized how complicated it would get! It's all good though cause I have a plan….. ;)

Italic writing = Dream world

Normal writing = umm Non dream world

Chapter 19

"NATHAN! WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?" Haley exclaimed in shock.

"What?" Nathan started in confusion.

"Why are you in my room?" Haley asked with wide eyes.

"Babe? You're not still mad are you? I mean I know I was supposed to make Micca stay home yesterday but Hales the girl he's had a crush on since he was ten was going to be at this party and I know Micca was supposed to be grounded for egging that teacher's house but common Hales…." Nathan finished in exasperation.

"Wait….WHAT? You let our son go to a Tree Hill party after he egged his teacher's house?" Haley exclaimed in disbelieve completely forgetting the fact that she actually has no idea what is going on and why her son is actually old enough to egg some one's house.

"Come on Hales lets be fair here…. The woman is a complete bitch and why are you so mad Hales you said so to her face yesterday what's the big deal- oh…. I get it." Nathan said nodding understandingly.

"WHAT? You get what?" Haley asked irritably.

"It's your hormones I remember how you were with JJ." Nathan said slowly while he rubbed her belly affectionately.

"What? It is not my hormones, it the fact that you let our six year old son go to a party!" Haley yelled moving out of Nathan's grasp.

"Six years old?" he asked in confusion.

"And who's JJ?" Haley asked.

"JJ! James Jacob! Ring any bells?" Nathan asked looking at Haley with wide eyes.

"No." Haley said slowly, shaking her head no.

"Our son Haley!" Nathan yelled making Haley flinch, but not being able to help it because he was starting to get very freaked out himself.

"The only son I have is Micca, Nathan!"

"NO! You have TWO sons, Haley" Nathan said slowly in a condescending tone.

"No I don't!"

"Ah, yes you do." Nathan argued.

"I would remember if I had a son Nathan." She promised in a way that implied she was trying to convince herself and not Nathan.

"Haley…. Look at the pictures we have TWO sons." He said gesturing to the pictures hanging on the wall.

After taking a minute to observe the photos again, Haley finally spoke shakily."I don't remember," Haley swore with tears starting to sting her eyes. "What is going on Nathan? The last thing I remember is having Sunday dinner! I don't remember having another son, I don't remember getting pregnant and I have no idea why you're here? OH MY GOD! I can't remember my son! I am horrible mother!" Haley finished openly bawling by now.

"Haley." Nathan said softly walking towards her. "Honey I need you to calm down." He said in his gentlest tone of voice.

"I can't Nathan!" she exclaimed continuing to openly cry.

"Yes you can! Just take a deep breath okay?" Nathan asked softly, rubbing her arms up and down in a calming manner that just agitated her.

"No!" Haley exclaimed. "YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND! I can't stop! The tears won't stop!"

"Okay Haley! Haley sweetie. I need you to calm down okay? I know you can't remember being pregnant and I know it's hard for you right now. But Hales you are pregnant and this can't be good for the baby. So please just calm down." Nathan begged.

"OKAY! Okay!" Haley said taking deep breaths for about five minutes until she was finally able to stop the tears and calm down.

"Okay! Good you're calm. What's the last thing you remember?"

"Umm… it was Sunday dinner; Lucas was being mean to you and then I started shouting at him and then NOTHING."

"Okay, ummm… We should get you to a doctor!"

"What why?"

"Because… you're talking about something that happened ten years ago, Haley."

"Ten years?" Haley asked with frightened expression.

"Yea." Nathan confirmed.

"I don't understand! How can I just forget ten years of my life?"

"I am sorry babe but remember when I said we had a fight yesterday?" Nathan asked regretfully.

"Yes." Haley nodded.

"Well you were all hormonal because I told Micca he can go to that party." Nathan said slowly.

"Okay… I don't understand how you being an idiot has anything to do with why I can't remember the last ten years of my life." Haley said indignantly.

"Ouch Hales!" Nathan joked, holding onto his heart trying to lighten the mood but failing miserably. He sobered up when Haley gave him a look that still scares him after ten years of marriage. "As I was saying…. We were fighting and you were really mad, I tried to calm you down and you kept moved back until you hit your head on the book shelf and I suggested we get you to a hospital but you just chucked a book at me and went to our bedroom and locked the door until I found the other key and opened it."

"Okay so I hit my head," Haley started slowly. "That still doesn't explain why you're here right now."

"Oh right…. Well long story short we're married!"

"Married?"

"Yup!"

"Well I already knew that!"

"No…. I mean we're remarried."

"Remarried?"

"Yup!"

"Since when?"

"Well to be fair we were never really unmarried."

"Okay! But since when?"

"Ten years ago."

"Ten years?"

"Yup." Nathan confirmed nodding slowly.

"How did it happen?"

"Well that's a long story and we don't have time for it! We need to get you to a doctor."

"Okay but what about…. The children?" Haley finished whispering with wide eyes.

"The children?" Nathan asked amusedly.

"Don't mock me Nathan!" Haley scowled.

"Okay. Okay. Sorry," He held his hands up in mock surrender.

"As I was saying! What are you going to tell them I may not remember knowing them but telling a kid that his mother doesn't remember him, has got to hurt…. right?"

"Yea you're right! Look, I'll go talk to Micca right now. Explain what is going on." Nathan said, getting off the floor.

"Wait!" Haley stopped him and grabbed onto his arm.

"Yes Hales?" Nathan asked.

"Won't he be hurt?" Haley asked softly.

"Wont who be hurt?" He questioned in confusion.

"You know…" Haley pressed on.

"No hales I don't that's why I asked." Nathan replied with an amused chuckle.

"MICCA!" Haley exasperated.

"Oh…. Ah don't worry about it, he'll understand, I'll just tell him he needs to watch JJ."

"Amnesia?" Haley asked in disbelieve.

"Amnesia." The doctor confirmed. "With your concussion in 2011, I think your subconscious connected the dots between then and hitting your head yesterday."

"Well, how do you…un-amnesia me?" Haley asked awkwardly.

Smiling at her brightly, the doctor replied. "Let's give it two weeks no medication just go over your pictures at home and talk about the past ten years and you should start getting flashbacks and start to remember. But if you don't remember then I am sorry but in your current condition I can't really do anything, medication wise, at least not until you have your baby. But until then all you can really do is take it easy and get lots and lots of rest."

"Okay! I can do that." Haley said.

"What about the baby?" Nathan asked anxiously.

"You're daughter is perfectly fine Nate." The doctor said happily.

"Daughter?" Haley asked fondly, rubbing her stomach and looking at Nathan.

"Yes, daughter." Nathan confirmed.

"Oh my God! That's amazing! Did we pick a name yet? Oh I know we can totally name her Emma or oh my god we can name her Alejandra! Alejandra Brooke Scott. That sounds perfect Nathan. OR we can name her LYDIA after my mom Oh my God Nathan, she would love that so much-" Haley finally rambling when she noticed the amused expressions on both her husband and her doctor's faces.

"What?" She asked nervously.

"Nothing sweetie, you're just adorable." Nathan said leaning in to kiss her mouth, leaving her tingly.

"And on that note, I should get back to my other patients. Hales you should take care of yourself and don't forget to take it easy and remember to make an appointme-"

"HAH don't forget! It's a little late for that." Haley joked cheekily interrupting the doctor.

"As I was saying, try and make an appointment and take it easy." The doctor ordered, leaning forward and kissing Haley's cheek and then turning around to leave.

"Thanks Peter, we'll see you on Sunday." Nathan promised, taking Haley's hand and walking out.

"Peter? Sunday?" Haley asked scrunching her face up in confusion.

"Oh right," Nathan started, remembering that Haley doesn't know him. "That's Mia's husband."

"Mia…." Haley said slowly.

"Yea Mia Catellano," Nathan confirmed while starting the car.

"Mia married a doctor?" Haley asked her eyes wide in disbelieve."How did that happen?"

"Seriously?" Nathan asked chuckling.

"What? It's not like I know." Haley asked with a role of her eyes.

"Sorry, there's just a lot of history there." Nathan said solemnly.

"Oh?" Haley asked raising her eye brow and waiting for him to continue.

"Yea, you actually introduced them."

"Really?"

"Yea…."

"Well…."

"Well?"

"Care to clarify." Haley asked with a role of her eyes

"Oh right, you and I had just renewed our vows and you pumped into him at Tric, you two started flirting-"

"That is not true!" Haley interrupted.

"What?" Nathan asked in confusion.

"There is no way I was flirting." Haley said, narrowing her eyes at him.

"How would you know that?"

"Really Nathan?" She asked in disbelieve.

"Okay…. So maybe you weren't flirting…." Nathan admitted quietly.

"HAH!" Haley exclaimed triumphantly. "With or without amnesia I would like to think that I would never do that."

"Okay so maybe I have done that, BUT that was teenage me, the me you're talking about is mother and adult me." Haley said at Nathan's pointed look.

"As I was saying, you guys were TALKING and you 'connected'. A month later and you're besties."

"Besties?"

"Oh yea, you had all of us jealous. Brooke, Peyton, Lucas, Jake, and even me."

"Why?"

"Well to be honest we all felt replaced and I felt like our marriage was falling apart before it even started."

"What? That makes absolutely no sense whatsoever."

"I know! But at the time it did. Peter was becoming closer to you than the rest of the guys except of course Brooke." Nathan said with a role of his eyes.

"Whats with the eye rolling buddy?" Haley asked in dismay.

"Lets just say Brooke really knows how to cockblock a guy when she and Lucas are fighting." Nathan said with genuine annoyance making Haley chuckle.

"Continue…" Haley ordered, with a nod of her head.

"Anyway it took like four month for us to start getting to know him and to actually admit we liked him. And then Mia came back from the tour and you introduced them and the rest was history."

"That's actually amazing." Haley admitted wishing she could actually remember.

"Yea it is! How about some coffee?" He asked pulling into star bucks.

"Okay." Haley said getting out of the car.

After ordering a coffee and a smoothie, Nathan and Haley sat down in a corner seat. "Tell me about JJ." Haley demanded.

"Well ummm….. Where do I start?" Nathan asked.

"How about from the beginning."

"Okay… he was born on Micca's ninth birthday, during his party much to Micca's annoyance. I wanted to name him James and you wanted to name him after Jake so we named him James Jacob. We couldn't decide between Peyton and Brooke for his god parents so we asked them both, along with Jake….." Nathan said fondly.

"What's he like?" She asked eagerly.

"He's all you, Hales." Nathan replied proudly.

"Really?" Haley asked with a bright smile.

"Yup, he's all you. He loves to read and when he's not reading he's listening to music and singing and when he's not doing either things then he's bothering Micca."

"He sounds amazing." Haley said with a sad smile.

"Hales," Nathan started taking her hand in his. "This is not your fault if anything its mine. So you shouldn't take it too hard."

"I shouldn't take it too hard? Nathan I can't remember the last ten years of my life! I can't even remember my own son." Haley replied in disbelieve.

"I know Hales, but just…. Let's just do what Peter said! We'll take it slow and I'll talk to the kids and it should all be fine."

"Yea okay. So tell me more." She ordered.

"Any changes?" Lucas asked Nathan, walking into Haley's hospital room.

"Uh, no none." Nathan whispered not looking up from Haley. "Where's Brooke?"

"She went to get us some food. She wanted some fresh air." And with that they both fell into an awkward silence with a Scott on both sides of Haley.

"I can't lose her Luke." Nathan said softly, his voice barely above a whisper.

"You won't" Luke replied, ignoring the part of him that wanted to scream at Nathan that he already lost her a long time ago.

"I know that you see me as this monster," Nathan started. "And I know usually I would agree with you! But when I left I genuinely thought I was doing the right thing."

"In what world is abandoning your family and friends the right thing?" Lucas asked softly with no malice in his tone, just pure curiosity.

"I didn't see it that way!" Nathan said turning around to look at his brother. "I was scared! Everything I've ever dreamed of was happening at the same time and I freaked! Haley and I were back together and we were happier than ever. I had just gotten early acceptance into DUKE! You were my brother again for real. Mom had just gotten out of rehab! Everything was better!... and then Haley tells me she's pregnant and all I can do is think about how much Dan resented me back then and I just…. freaked. Next thing I know I am all packed up and already in my dorm room."

"I don't know what you want me to say Nathan." Lucas said softly after a minute of silence.

"Yea… I don't know either." Nathan said defeated.

"I am not like the others! I can't just forgive and forget, I don't work that way! It took a lot for me to let you in Nathan! To me you were the guy Dan always chose over my mom and I. and with all that hate I had for you, you went and started to date Haley. I really hated you then and I had to work really, REALLY hard to let you in and then you went and threw it back in my face."

"I really am sorry you know?... and if it's any consolation I am not going anywhere this time. I am here to stay." Nathan said honestly.

"What about the NBA?"

"What about it?"

"Aren't you on a contract?"

"Yea, I am trying to get out of it!"

"How?"

"I am not sure yet but I do know that I am not going back to the NBA without Haley and Micca by my side and however long that takes its going to be worth it."

"Good! I may find you really annoying right now and if I were honest with myself then I'd admit that every time I see you I feel like punching you all over again-"

"Please Lucas tell me how you really feel!" Nathan said mockingly, clutching his heart in a hurt manner.

Chuckling softly, Lucas continued. "As I was saying, I am glad you're back for your family Nate. I hope you realize that this is your all time last chance that you will ever have with Haley.…So don't screw it up"

"I won't." Nathan promised somberly.

"Jake honey, you coming to bed?" Peyton asked softly, walking into their living room where Jake had been planted since they came home from the hospital six hours ago.

"I am not very tired." Jake said curtly.

"Sweetie, please just come to bed." Peyton begged brokenly, getting Jake's attention.

"Oh Pey, I am so sorry I completely forgot how you'd be feeling about all this." Jake said apologetically and walked up to Peyton and hugged her tightly.

"It's okay! I am not really worried." Peyton said softly.

"You're not?" Jake asked in surprise while pulling back a little to look her in the eyes.

"Yea…. I mean its Haley; she's survived a lot worse than a concussion." Peyton said putting on a strong face that her husband saw right through.

"Peyton," Jake called softly.

"I don't know how to feel Jake." Peyton exasperated finally, after a minute of silence. "I mean I know it's a concussion right? And people get them all the time but… when she fell, Jake, all I could see was Ellie." She finished wiping a few stray tears from her eyes.

"I know Pey," Jake agreed softly, wiping her tears.

"I have a really bad feeling Jake, like a really, really bad feeling."

"It's going to be okay." Jake hugged her tightly whispering "It's all going to be okay." Over and over again.

"Hey!" Lucas greeted softly, sitting next to Brooke in the hospital chapel.

"Hi!" She replied softly.

"How are you holding up?" he asked, taking her hand in his.

"You know, I've never really believed in God." Brooke replied instead, ignoring his question.

"Really?"

"Yea, I mean when I was little I used to pray all the time! I used to pray that my mom would come home and ask me how my day was…. I prayed and prayed for the day my dad look at me and actually see me…. And then the last time I ever tried praying was when Peyton's mom was in the hospital… no one answered Luke! Not one time did I ever get what I prayed for." Brooke finished talking brokenly and wiped her tears on her sleeve.

At lose for what to say Lucas settled on just reassuring Brooke that Haley would be okay.

"Will she be Luke? Because last time I checked people don't just fall to the ground like that without something being really wrong with them." Brooke replied heatedly.

"Brooke-"

"Haley is my family Luke! She's the one person who has always managed to be there for me! Even when I screwed up, she always had my back and I can't…. I just…. I can't imagine a life without her." She finished, whispering.

Grapping onto her shoulders, Lucas looked her straight in the eyes. "You won't lose her!" he said strongly.

"You don't know that!" she replied shaking her head in dismay.

"YES I do! You said it yourself, Haley and Nathan are a fairy tale and the story never ends this way Brooke."

"You really think so?" she asked with a glint of hope in her eyes.

"Yes I do! I…. I promise you that Haley will be okay!"

"I believe you!" she assured him after a minute of starring into his eyes and stepped into his embrace.
