Chapter Four

Haley was at Damien front door and used her key to open it. She walked inside, closed the door and walk up to Damien's room. She knew he was probably still sleeping so she made sure to be quite. She opened his bedroom door and saw a figure under the thick blanket. Thinking it was Damien; she jumped on 'him' and said, "Time to wake up sleepy head." Just then Damien walked out of his bathroom in only boxers.

"Haley?" He asked with a shocked look on his face.

What the hell is going on!?!?! Haley thought. If Damien is right there then who's this??? Haley felt her eyes start to water.

Then she finally realized it.

The figure stuck out their head from under the blanket and said, "Hi Haley." And smiled, unashamed of what she had just done.

"Rachel." Haley felt her hot tears run down her cheeks but she didn't know why she was crying. You see the funny thing was Haley had only come to Damien's house to tell him she didn't want to be with him but she still love him as a friend and it hurt her that he had betrayed her.

Haley quickly got off of Rachel and headed for the door but Damien grabbed her arm and stopped her, "Haley, this isn't what it looks like, please you have to believe me. I was drunk and depressed about last night—"

"Baby, that's not what you said last night." Rachel said smugly. She wrapped the blanket around her body and got off the bed and faced Haley, "I'm sorry you had to find out this way Hales, but we love each other and nothing could keep us apart." Rachel said smilingly sweetly. Rachel didn't actually love Damien but she would do anything to be popular and get all the attention Haley had.

"What?!" Damien yelled, "Rachel, I don't love you and you mean nothing to me!" He turned to Haley who still hadn't said anything, "Please, Hales, baby who have to believe me. You know I would never do this on purpose, right?"

Haley slipped out of Damien's grasp and turned to Rachel and with one swift motion slapped her, "Rachel, I'm pretty sure it was obvious that I have never liked you. You are slut, a bitch and many, many more but you have just earned yourself a new title…A whore." Haley said trying to keep as calm as possible. "Now I'd like you to take you things and leave," Rachel made no effort to move, "NOW!"

Rachel who was slightly afraid said nothing and took her clothing and exited the room.

"Haley, I am sorry about her. She was lying I don't want to be with her, I want to be with you. I want you."

Haley shook her head, "No Damien you don't. Because if you did then you would have been faithful and not slept with Rachel the biggest slut of them all."

"Hales, baby, I love y—"

"NO! You don't! And I don't love you either. Just face it Damien." Haley said seriously.

"Don't say that. We love each other! I am so sorry this happened and I will do anything to gain your trust back if you just give me a chance. We are so good together."

"No we are not… And that's actually why I came here today. Damien, I wanted to break up with you." Haley said looking him straight in the eye.

"No, you're lying, you're just making this all up because you're mad I cheated on you." Damien yelled not believing her.

"It's true. I've been thinking a lot and there's no reason for us to be together Damien. When we started out I was valuable and you took advantage of that!" Haley yelled starting to get angry and her tears started coming down faster. "And the only reason I let you was cause I didn't want to be alone! You were my friend and I didn't want you to leave me like everyone else did at that time!"Haley then whispered, "I don't think you ever had feelings or took interest in the real me just the idea of me."

Damien didn't say anything. He knew she was right and he felt guilty. After a few minutes he finally spoke up.

"Haley, I – "He started.

"I think we've said everything thing there is to say. Good bye Damien."

Haley quickly run out and she continued to run. She wasn't much of a runner but she was going as fast as her legs would take her. She had no clue where she was going for two reasons. 1) She hadn't stopped or even slowed down long enough to see where she was. 2) Her continuously falling tears had blurred up her vision.

And that was the part that confused Haley even more. Damien had meant nothing more than a friend to her, well before this morning at least. That 'spark' she convinced herself she felt with Damien was nothing. Key word, Convinced. It wasn't real; it was made up by her imagination to keep herself from remembering that almost all the people she loved had left her. That fake spark reminded her that somewhere out there someone was going to love her.

Haley kept on running and due to the fact that she was slightly unable to see, she didn't notice the person in front of her and run right into his arms.

"Haley? Oh my gosh, Baby what's wrong? Haley, what happened?" Nathan asked franticly. He really was worried. In his arms was one of the most- no… The most beautiful girl he had ever seen and she was crying and it broke his heart. The only thing he could do was wrap his arms around her small figure and walked them to his nearby car. "C'mon, I'll take you home, I think Brooke is still there."

"No." She quickly said, "I don't want them seeing me like this. Can I stay at your place for a while?" Haley spoke against Nathan's warm chest.

"Yes!"Nathan said a little too quickly as he helped her into the passenger side of his car, "I mean, of course you can but are you sure you don't want to be with Jake, Brooke and the rest of them?" Nathan asked even though he honestly wanted to comfort her and know what had caused this amazing girl to be crying. He already didn't like it when she cried. He wanted to hurt every something or someone who had caused her plain.

When he saw her nod and then say, "Besides, if they saw me like this they would probably lock me away in my room, away from the world and take turns guarding my door." Haley joked, trying to lighten the mood.

Nathan nodded and they drove to his house.

1:30pm, 10 hours and 30 minutes until the game between Nathan and Damien.

As soon as Nathan and Haley arrived at Nathan's Haley planted herself in his large bed.

Nathan lay next to her. Both just staring at the ceiling.

"Are you going to tell me what happened?"Nathan asked after Haley had stopped crying.

"Um… I, I uh kinda walked in on my boyfriend, now ex-boyfriend by the way, and the biggest slut in Tree Hill." Haley said still looking at the ceiling.

Nathan's eyes went wide and he tore away from the ceiling and turned to Haley. He was so shocked for three reasons. One, who the hell would cheat on Haley most-amazing-girl-ever-with-a-fricken-hot-body-every-guy-would-kill-for-to-touch James?!?! And especially with that Rachel girl, ew! Two, YES! She is single, wait I shouldn't be happy about this but I can't help myself. Three, Damn, it! Why do this bad things keep happening to Haley, she doesn't deserve this. Nathan soon became very angry and got off his bed and head for the door when Haley stopped him.

"Nate, where are you going?" Haley asked getting off of the bed as well.

"I'm going to go beat his ass." Nathan said like it was the most oblivious thing in the world.

"Nathan, not now please." She grabbed his arm and they sat back on the bed, "You just beat him in the ball game tonight, okay?"

"But Hales, the guy deserves it!" Nathan argued.

"I know he does but he is not even worth it. I didn't love him and besides… I was hoping we could stay here until the big game."

Nathan smiled, "Of course." He would just deal with Damien later.

They lay back on the bed and Haley snuggled up to Nathan and Nathan wrapped his arms around her but Nathan couldn't help but wonder about what Jake had told him earlier; 'Haley's been through hell and back.'

"Haley, just out of curiosity, why are all the guys so over protective of you?" Nathan asked not knowing if he should just kept his mouth shut. He felt Haley stiffen.

"Uh, well they always look out for me but they are only like this bad during September and October. Since it is September they are very over protective of my right now." Haley said uneasily.

"Okay, but why Haley?" Nathan asked then soon regretted it, he didn't want to push her, "Never mind, you don't have to tell me."

Haley looked into Nathan's blue eyes and saw the sincerity in them, "Nathan, I know we haven't know each other very long but I feel like safe with you…Like I've known you forever." Nathan smiled. "So I will tell you what happened." She paused but kept gaze on Nathan, "In two weeks, on September 20th is when my mom died, almost three years ago." Haley said sadly, "A week later I was attacked. Three weeks later he came back and attacked me again."
