"I just can't believe it!!" Said Haley walking into her flat closely followed by Damien.

She sat on her sofa. "Argh! I love you Haley…I believe youRight!!" She said mimicking and grimacing. "He's just a huge moron!!"

Damien didn't know what happened between Haley and Nathan but a part of him thought she was just upset enough to let him in completely. It was the perfect opportunity to take advantage over Nathan. However a part of him didn't know what to do anymore. Gosh I'm so fucking confused!! He thought angrily against himself while sitting on the sofa beside Haley.

She was still rambling like if she was alone.

"That's a whole new level of moronic even for him!!" She added shaking her head.

"Stop!" Said Damien cutting her off.

Haley looked at him with wide eyes. It was like he just brought her back to reality.

"I'm sorry girl but you haven't stopped rambling since we left the bar." Said Damien with a small smile "and I still don't know what the hell happened there!" He added taking her hand.

"Ohh…Yeah." She said with an apologist smile. "Well…what's there to say Nathan said he didn't trust me and he knows that it's something that hurt me a lot," She sighed. "I'm just fed up of getting hurt in general." She added sincerely "and by him in particular," she finally added looking down.

Damien waited before talking. He needed to make a decision fast. Was he going to continue and take advantage of the situation or was he going to help them get back together... The ball was in his court.

"Maybe he didn't intend to hurt you…." Tried Damien.

"Yeah…Okay…" Said Haley nodding. "Umm tell me..." She locked eyes with him. "If tomorrow I stab you in the leg will it hurt?" She asked seriously.

"What?" Asked Damien confused. "What kind of question is that?" He asked with caution.

"Just answer please." Asked Haley in a begging tone.

Damien took a deep breath. "Well of course it will!" He said stating the obvious.

"Okay…and would it change your pain if I did it on purpose or not?" She added still keeping her eyes on his.

"I guess not but…" he frowned. "Where are you going with that?" He asked with curiosity.

"Well…you said that maybe Nathan didn't intend to hurt me but intended or not it still hurts the same." She said squeezing Damien's hand.

"It all hurts the same…" He repeated in a whisper lost in his thoughts. Okay it's now or never. He thought while a lump started to form in his throat.

"Can I ask you something Hales?" Asked Damien mysteriously.

"Yeah…" Said Haley sitting differently in order to face him. "What's on your mind?"

"Okay…don't freak out and I didn't hear anything I swear but…" Damien moved uncomfortably on the sofa. "If Scott would have asked you to get an abortion would you have done it?" He asked looking deep into her eyes.

Haley was on the verge of saying that it was none of his business. She was also about to ask him why he wanted to know that, but she could see in his eyes that it was important.

She sighed. Let's act like a trusting friend. She thought to herself. "I…I wouldn't have done it." She said sincerely. "I was scared for sure when I found out about the pregnancy but…but I already loved my kids then and I wouldn't have gotten an abortion with or without Nathan." She smiled "I know it's a bit selfish to say but Nathan's opinion didn't really matter. As soon as the doctor said I was pregnant I loved my babies."

Damien nodded.

"It's my body you know…. I'm the one who had a choice to make." She added putting her hand on top of his. She could see pain and insecurity in his eyes. "Why do you ask me that?"

"Do you think that someone who made the wrong choice once can get redemption?" He asked his voice broken with emotion, while still ignoring her question.

Haley looked at him for a while without answering. It was clear that Damien wasn't looking for an answer but was looking for hope.

"Yeah…I think it's possible Damien. Pure intentions can change things." She stood up and walked to the kitchen in order to prepare some hot chocolate.

Damien followed her.

"You know…. If you really want to repair or change things it's never too late. If your heart is pure." She stated looking at him.

"I don't know…" He said his voice filled with doubts. "Sometimes things can't be repaired… " He was using all his inner strength not to break down. "And…well… sometimes you see something or someone as your only hope for redemption."

"I don't know about that…" Haley told him handing him Damien a hot cup. "You know I think that even through death mistakes can be repaired. Just try not to let the past repeat itself." She added with confidence.

Damien's heart filled up with hope. He loved the optimism and the naivety coming from Haley.

I've got to help them. She won't be happy with me and she deserves the best! He thought pleased to have finally found his way.

"Go to him." He said trying to hide his pain.

"What?" Asked Haley confused. "Who?" She frowned.

"Nathan!" Said Damien standing up in order to give him some kind of credit to what he was saying. "He's the love of your life Haley…Your soul mate!" Said Damien stating the evident. "You need him as much as he needs you. Go back to him Hales."

"I…It's none of your business!" Said Haley defensively.

Damien sighed and put his hand on top of hers." I love you Haley." He said with a smile. "I really do and it's my business." He added looking away. "I can see it myself! Even with all the love I've got for you in my heart I objectively know that I will never make you as happy as he could." He added finally looking at her again. "And I want you as happy as you could be even if it's not with me."

Haley looked at him with wide eyes. She opened her mouth to answer but Damien continued his speech.

"I know it scares the hell out of you to trust him and to put your heart in his hands again but you should do it." He sighed "Because if you don't…. you'll be miserable for the rest of your life. Trust him…Trust yourself…Trust destiny." He added removing his hands off hers.

"I really love him." She said shyly. "I…More than life itself."

"I know you do." Said Damien nicely, while it felt like a knife went straight through his heart. "And you know I'm not a big fan of Scott, but he loves you more than life too!!" He said trying his best to mask his pain.

Haley sighed. Damien could still see the uncertainty in her eyes.

"You are soul mates and I know that he knows that and you know that too. Stop being scared and follow your heart. Go to him and be happy Haley." He added walking her to the door. "I'm sure he's waiting for you." He hugged her. "Be happy…you deserve it." He added before walking quickly to his flat in order to hide the tears falling down his cheeks.

Haley stayed in front of the door for a moment in order to process the information he had just told her.

"Damien's right!" She finally said out loud. "I can't fight destiny!" She added taking her car keys and purse. I love you Nathan, I won't be scared anymore. She thought with a bright smile walking to her car.

Nathan was walking back to his flat thinking about the night. Things were going so good and your dumb ass of a self just had to ruin it he thought moodily. Great job moron, man I would punch myself if I could. Stupid jackass had to make her run away because your jealous of Damien and let your temper get the best, he told himself a grim look on his face when he got to the door and saw Rachel standing there.

"Hey sexy," Rachel said seductively, while running her hand up and down his chest before he pushed it away.

"Just leave Rachel I'm not in the mood to deal with you right now," He said getting out his keys and unlocking the door.

"Oh come on Natey. You know you want me," She said in a purring voice.

"Rachel just leave" Nathan said rolling his eyes. I wouldn't ever hit a girl but if she doesn't leave soon I might make an exception he thought.

Rachel saw Haley walking towards them as Nathan's back was facing Haley. Haley stopped surprised seeing Rachel and Nathan talking. I thought he said he hated that girl? Right…Haley thought sarcastically. I'm fat now so he's looking for a hot replacement!! She thought jealous.

"I get it Nathan. You feel obliged because of the babies and all but I still don't get why you want us to break up." She told him seriously.

Nathan frowned, too surprised to answer. What the hell is she talking about?! he asked himself confused.

"You love me so don't let the tramp separate us!" Added Rachel looking at Nathan.

"I hate you!" Shouted Haley behind them before Nathan could say anything making him turn around.

"Haley…it's not what you think…I…She…It's just…" Nathan was confused but it suddenly all clicked why Rachel was saying that stuff. She saw Haley!

"I want the divorce Nathan and I want it now!" Said Haley crying. "I don't want you in my life anymore…not now or ever." She added running away with him running after her trying desperately to get her to listen to him until she made it in her car and drove off as fast as she could.

She was sobbing even harder than before; her heart was hurting so much. She thought it was about to stop. She took her cell out dialed Damien's number. You were wrong Damien! Nathan's not my soul mate. She thought the tears falling down like rain.

-zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz-Jeyton Apartment-zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz-

Jake and Peyton were lying in bed with her head resting on his chest. I'm so glad things are so great with us she thought with a sad smile thinking about Nathan and Haley and how they had been so close.

"I don't know what happened." She whispered sadly. "They seemed to be doing so good and…they just fought."

"I know," said Jake gently running his hand through her curls. "I don't think they're ready to get back together just yet. I…" He said before getting caught off by Peyton kissing his lips softly.

"I just think they're meant to be and it's sad to see them apart." She told him miserably.

"They'll figure it out soon." Said Jake positively before taking her lips with his and kissing her passionately, letting her take off his shirt and throwing it on the floor before kissing her once again. Things were getting heated when the phone rang interrupting them. Jake groaned before answering it. It was almost midnight and he knew whoever was calling him that it was important.

"Hello" He asked into the phone before the person on the other end explained why they were calling and Peyton saw Jakes face go deathly pale.

"I'll be there in a second" he said with panic in his voice.

"What happened?" Peyton asked panicking and seeing Jake jump off the bed and throwing on his shirt as fast as he could.

"It's Haley… She… accident…. I…" He sat on the bed. He couldn't breath; he was having a panic attack.

"Breath," Said Peyton soothingly while freaking out on the inside.

"Haley was in a car accident! It's bad. I... They need me." Said Jake looking around confused.

"What?!" Said Peyton not believing it. "And the babies?" She asked

"I don't know." Said Jake standing up.

"Go!" Said Peyton pushing him to the door. "I'll take care of Jenny and I'll call the others. Just go and take care of her." Said Peyton, trying to contain her tears as Jake ran out of the apartment.
