Haley walked into the door of her and Nathan's two bedroom apartment with little Ally in her arms. Inside she saw Nathan standing with a huge smile on his face at the opening of their bedroom. He put out his arms for her, waiting for her embrace. She starting walking forward, her pace of footsteps increasing, but it just seemed the hallway was getting longer and longer. She walked faster and faster until she was in a running sprint just trying to get to him. Nathan. She was so close but yet every step he seemed to be further and further away. Haley yelled for him. "NATHAN! NATHAN! NATHAN!" She finally was getting closer. Then finally, after what seemed like an eternity, Nathan was only a few yards away but then…. he disappeared. "NATHAN!" She practically screamed. NATHAN! NATHAN! NATHAN! COME BACK!

"Mommy! Wake up! You're having a nightmare!" a pretty little girl with brown hair exclaimed as she gently pushed her mother.

"O my gosh. Yeah I was.." Haley responded to her daughter as she tried to regain her composure. "I'm sorry. Did I wake you sweetie?"

"No, I was already awake," she sweetly answered.

"Oh, how long you been up Al?"

"Since about five minutes ago," The little girl said tiredly. "What was your nightmare about?"

"O nothing, don't worry about it."

"Oh. O.k., Justin bought some doughnuts for breakfast." Ally informed her mom. "He didn't get sprinkles though," she said with a pout.

"Ally, at least it's something," Haley replied gently.

"Yeah I guess, I'm gonna go wash my face."

"K. Sweetie." Haley felt bad for her daughter, there was nothing she could do to make their lives easier. All her little girl had ever known was being held up in this house, they couldn't even go outside without being forced to wear long dark dresses with a headdress covering their faces where all you could see were their eyes. Their small home had no telephones, no contact to the outside world. This was definitely not the life she had wanted for Ally, or for herself. But ever since she was taken from everything she had known 5 years earlier, this is what she has to deal with now. Justin was the one who had to live with them in the same house to make sure they never escaped. She hated that man. Haley wanted to escape this and go back to Nathan. Nathan. God she missed him so much. She wanted Ally to know him and grow up with him. She wondered about him everyday. Haley knew how much he had wanted to be a father. One day she hoped that she could escape. She feared escaping though..what if they got caught? She knew that Justin would be very dangerous if he caught them. She painfully remembered the time right before Ally was born when she had tried to escape….

Omygod omygod I need to get out here. I am about to have a baby For God's sake. Nathan. I need Nathan. I don't think anyone's watching. There's the door. I need to get out of here…Haley's mind raced

Haley looked around and made sure Justin wasn't around to see her. She walked as silently as she could to that door. Getting out of that door meant freedom. She knew if she could just get out of here and then run to the nearest house or stop the next person who drove by…she could be able to get out of this. She turned the knob of the door gently and silently was going to step out when she heard this alarm go off…Her instincts told her to run as fast as she could.. which wasn't too fast considering she was very pregnant. But she needed out.

"Hey! Where the hell you think you're going?" Justin ran after her and grabbed her.

"Let me go! I need to go!" Haley cried out.

"No I don't think so!. You're coming back in here." He grabbed her wrist so hard she thought it was going to break. He then smacked her. "Your home is here now!" He grabbed a knife and put it up to her stomach. "You better never try this little stunt again. If you do you will get to witness your baby's death." He threatened her. Then he touched the very end of the blade to her stomach. "You Understand?"

"Yes." She managed to say in a whisper. Her heart pounded. She couldn't bear to think of her poor, innocent daughter hurt. "Please just don't hurt my baby."

He took the knife away. "Fine, this time I won't do anything. But next time..you should be worried." Justin said in a threatening tone and started to walk out.

"Why are you doing this?" She asked. " I don't understand any of this.

"Look, you want to know the truth? I am getting paid for you to stay here and not to leave. So if you don't try any escaping stunts or anything. You'll be fine. Don't worry you guys will have food and there will be a doctor here to deliver your baby." He said coldly

"What! For how long are you going to keep us here?"Haley couldn't believe what she was hearing.

"As long as the cash flow keeps coming my way. Sometimes I wont be here but don't get any ideas, someone will always be here to make sure you stay."

"But,"

"Hey you know what I'm sick of all the questions. So don't bother me anymore. I will bring you some food around dinner." And with saying that he left the room.

Haley started crying..her whole life had been changed so drastically in less than a month. She didn't have just herself to worry for.. but also for her innocent little Ally.

Now, 5 years later they were still here. If it hadn't been for Ally, Haley probably would of given up so long ago. But she had to fight. One day she would be able to get out. She had to get out of this. She needed her old friends, Peyton, Lucas, Brooke, Jake. She thought daily about what was going on with them and Brooke and Lucas's baby. Was it a girl. A boy. Who did he look like? Did Jake and Peyton get married? So many questions. But even more..she though about Nathan. Haley needed Nathan. Every time she looked at Ally she could see Nathan in her. They both had the piercing, beautiful blue eyes. Every time she looked at Ally.. she knew what she was fighting for and she knew she had to keep faith. One day..it would get better.
