Chapter 4

Haley had managed to avoid Nathan for a week, the conversation she had with him kept playing

in her mind non stop. She had found it hard to concentrate on anything and everything. History

felt like it was repeating itself only this time she felt like he was making a joke out of it.

FLASHBACK

Haley got home and ran straight to her room. She threw herself on the bed, her face drenched

with tears. She didn't even know the true reason why she was crying, but she couldn't stop

herself.

Why is he doing this to me…what have I done wrong…why can't he just leave me alone? These

questions were repeated again and again in Haley's mind. She opened the peace of paper once

more, It was blank… there was nothing written on there it was just a blank piece of paper, she'd

studied every inch of the paper and thought maybe he might've wrote it super small so no one

else could read it but nothing, zilch, plain. She turned it over again and again still knowing

nothing was written just wanting to believe that maybe he made a mistake.

Haley didn't know what she was crying over she felt like a fool she had a tiny spec of hope that

maybe just maybe Nathan felt the same way towards Haley as she did to him and seven years

later he would confess it. But he didn't, just made another dig at her past. Haley felt like an idiot

and at that precise moment felt very lonely she cuddled up with her pillow and carried on crying

till she fell asleep.

END OF FLASHBACK

Haley sat down on a bench outside of the university's café and placed her food in front of

her; she didn't seem to feel hungry or hadn't so in the last couple of days her appetite

seemed to vanish at the sight of food. She took her ipod out and started playing some

music Her music seemed to be her safety, she felt as if her music blocked the world out

and everything was fine. Music was her escape route, her safety net, which she could run

to at any time. She placed the headphones and put the volume full blast. She closed her

eyes and let the music take over….


I know I can't
I can't keep on falling
Something inside just makes me keep falling
I wont deny that baby I'm falling
Tryna control myself but my heart is breaking

I cant keep on falling
Its not fair
Stop making me falling
Everyday
This cant be right
I don't wanna a lover like that

O baby if you get any time
Just sit back and think
About everybody but yourself
Then you may see
How really good our love would have been
Don't lea…

(Sadie Ama – Falling)

She opened her eyes to see Nathan sitting in front of her smiling, she seemed to have

stopped breathing and her eyes were popping out, she felt paralyzed.

"Wow you have an amazing voice." Nathan said with fascination.

Haley didn't know what she was more embarrassed about the fact that Nathan had heard

her singing (which she never done in public) or the fact that she'd started singing without

realizing or the fact that Nathan was sitting right in front of her and watching her.

"Please carry on." he said grinning. "Your beauti…I mean it's beautiful." He said

smiling shyly.

Haley shot him an evil look, picked up her books and bag and stormed off without saying

a word. Her anger was fuming and boiling how dare he try to be the way he was being

with me huh who does he think he is?

Nathan looked like he'd been slapped in the face "Hey Wait…" He shouted after her.

Haley stopped and breathing heavily replied "What?" Through gritted teeth.

"You…ermm forgot your lunch." Nathan said thinking quick.

Haley felt like punching him, "Arrrrr you are soooooooooooooooo pathetic…" Screamed

Haley all the anger seemed to be bubbling up inside of her and felt as if would explode if

she didn't walk off. She grunted then turned her back on him and was about to storm off

when Nathan grabbed her arm.

"Haley… please just listen to me and why are you so mad at me what did I do to make

you this angry." He said shrugging his shoulders and screwing up his face.

At this sentence Haley froze what….what…what oh no he didn't he thinks he's done

nothing wrong oh my Gawd he's a bigger freak than I thought. Stay calm….stay calm.

"What do you have to say?" She said biting her lip and trying not to scream.

"Well … I ... I just wanted to say that…coz… well …erm … you know..."

"No I don't you…that's why I am asking you, genius." She said mockingly.

"O.k….well all it is … is…is that….I…I just wanted…to tell…telll ermm you that…"

"Hey Nate what you doing… who's she?" Screamed one of his mates called Jake from

across the café.

Nathan looked across at Jake who was with the rest of Nathan's mates. "Oh her…she."

He hesitated.

"Nate is that ya new girlfriend." Said another of the guys mockingly and the rest burst

out laughing.

"No." Said Nathan defensively "Her nooo she's just…no-one...she's nothing… I mean

to me ha-ha her… girlfriend good one guys." Without looking at Haley he ran up to the

rest of them and walked off without looking back.

Haley stood there not able to move, breathe or speak. She wasn't even able to cry, she

didn't feel anything, and she didn't know what to feel. Her life seemed to have ended

there and then, the shock was just too much to take in. Her world felt like it was spinning,

her world felt like it been crashed and a giant meteor had hit it, her world…well she felt

like she had no world.
