An- What's shaking,guy's? Thanks for the reviews, they mean a lot to me and I figured we could clear up some things. Firstly, a million apologies thrown in your direction about the whole 'Troy' thing. As many of you may know, high school musical's own Troy Bolton, I was supposed to be doing a Troyella story using that scene but I figured it fit Leyton much better and didn't notice I had accidentally written or slipped his name on the page until I had read your reviews. Secondly, now that I had explained the mass of confusion I had created, I want to let anyone who thought Peyton was cheating or something that they were way off and Peyton is still very much in love with Lucas, which obviously clears up the question. Thirdly, I think you may be happy about Naley in this chapter just don't get bothered if it takes Haley a little too much time to trust Nathan again because every woman knows that that we woman take a long time until we finally own up to our men and if she forgave him so easily, the fic wouldn't seem real.
P.s , Thanks for still supporting me and keep those reviews coming, the more reviews, the more I update, I sort of don't like that I got about 6 -8 reviews the last time and does anyone know Chase's last name?
Chapter 18- Time Warp.
Previously: - Lucas comforts his best friend.
- Brooke confronts Nathan
- Lucas and Peyton take their relationship to another level.
Nathan took a deep breath, bracing himself and shook off the anxiety and the nervousness that swam around his stomach as he knocked on the door. The door opened fiercely and he felt his heart break at the sight of his wife in a frantic, tearful state, he realized she hadn't yet seen him as she was vacuuming the floor and took the time to let his eyes linger on her, realizing he hadn't held her in his arms for what felt like year's.
"Hey Luke, what's the hold up? You normally just walk in." said the brunette, her sentence cut short as s she looked up and caught sight of him. It took everything he had in him to not take her in his arms and kiss her senseless as she battled off her worries and comfort her like there was no tomorrow as she cried into his chest. A frown graced his features as a sharp pang ran through him as he realized that he, had been the one that caused her tears at night, that made her look so vulnerable, It had only been a matter of days and it felt like months since he had kissed her plump lips or touch her glorious skin. He was shaken out of his reverie by his wife's sweet, natural, grace of a voice that always brought a smile on his face.
"N-Nathan, what are you doing here?" he winced as her voice broke and moved in to put a hand on her shoulder, and when shrugged off harshly, distinctly put a brick in his heart.
"Haley please, I need to talk to you." pleaded the brunette man.
"Nathan-"
"You've got it all wrong,Hales. You have to believe me."
"I saw you. I saw you with my own two eyes, I can be clueless but I sure of hell am smart and you don't know how it feels to watch it all happen in my house!" she let a tear run down her face. " Did I- was I not enough for you? I really thought you had changed." said the brunette sadly, her words piercing his heart. .
"I did change,Haley. You changed me! You taught me how life is far more worth than basketball, taught me the meaning of love, how to love, how to care and respect a woman. I love you, I love how the simplest things can bring a smile to your face that lights a twinkle in your eyes, I love the easy going nature and understanding that makes you connect with anyone instantly, I love how you put others before yourself no matter what the consequences, I love how your always there to help a friend. I love the way your voice speaks out to people in such a natural beauty and grace when you sing, It drives me to the edge when you bite your lip when your nervous or scared, I love the way your laugh shoots vibes through my body, but most of all, I love you Haley James Scott." ended the brunette, fear running through him as tears slipped down faster and faster like a waterfall. She smiled softly.
" I guess Lucas isn't the only romantic Scott brother,"
"It's a gift," joked the brunette boy. " You bring that out of me Haley, It's you,It's all you. I never kissed Carrie, she kissed me and by the time I pushed her away, you came into the picture." she shook her head,stubborningly.
"You were both in towels,Nate. And you came straight out of the bedroom, I'm not blind."
"Believe me Haley, I know you aren't. I had no idea she was in there when I came out of the shower, she's been making passes at me for the past three weeks and she surprised me yesterday when she decided to kick it up a notch."
"You should of told me that,Nathan. A marriage,especially ours, Is based on love,honesty and trust, and you deceived that."
"I didn't want you to worry, I thought I could handle it." said the brunette man as shame poured into him.
"I'm supposed to know stuff like this Nathan, I'm your wife, I'm supposed to know when things are heading down hill. You have to tell me things like this." He put a hand on her cheek, caressing it.
" I'm sorry,Haley. I'm sorry, take me back, I need you." Haley looked into his eyes, her eyes boring into his as if seeking reassurance. She saw love, regret, slight anger and a twinkle that had faded out and knew just knew that her decision had been made. She went to the door, watching as he froze and closed it, watching as a sigh of relief came out of his lips.
"I didn't think the house deserved the right to freeze," joked the brunette woman,she smiled. " I want you back,Nathan. I just- I don't know if I can trust you." all hope that had stirred in his chest vanished instantly, she smiled.
" But.. I'm willing to wait for you to regain it all back." he grinned, wrapping his arms around her waist.
" I can do that." smirked the brunette and she hummed lightly as he took her lips in his and kissed her with so much passion, her head spun.
" I'm sure you will," she smiled. " starting with the laundry," at his groan, she smiled wickedly.
"Don't forget to pre-soak,hunny." laughed the brunette. " I love you!" she called out.
" I love you too," he said as he kissed her once more. Haley Grinned, things would get better, once she learned how to trust him. She sighed happily, In the meantime she could have fun with this.
Brooke looked up at the chime of the bell that had gone off and grinned a full-dimpled smile at the customer.
"Someone's awfully happy today? There's a fuck-me dress if your looking for one." she smirked. " I think I have the perfect size."
"Ha-ha, very funny." Exclaimed the brunette as she walked into other best girl friends store and marched up to the counter.
" Hi tigger,"
" Hi,Tutor wife." she smirked. " I take it everything went well in the Naley department?" Haley laughed.
" Yeah, and I used it to my advantage."
"Watch out world, little miss goody goody gone bad!" she smirked. " You'll be a Brooke Davis original in no time." At the light smack sent from Haley, she laughed. They both looked up to see a glistening Peyton walk into the room with an out-of-this-world grin on her face.
"Well, well,well, Mama Sawyer. Long time no talk huh?" Peyton shook her head, bringing herself out of her reverie and into the real world where she wasn't spreading her legs out for one Lucas Scott.
" Wha-Oh, yeah." Haley raised an eyebrow.
"What's up with you? Your all distant and glowing with that cheesy grin on your-Oh my gosh!" yelled the brunette as realization hit her across the face, Brooke squealed.
"Oh my gosh! You so got laid by dream boat aka Lucas Scott last night,didn't you?" Rasped the brunette as a grin graced her features,after all this was Brooke Penelope Davis and everyone knows she loves a good gossip. She smirked at Peyton's crimson red blush."I knew it!" Haley grinned, amusement shining in her chocolate brown eyes.
"What happened to 'we're taking it slow' crap you gave me the other day?" Peyton smirked.
"That flew out the window the very minute I caught a glimpse of my sexy boyfriend's chest with no shirt on." At that the two girls had to laugh. Brooke rolled her eyes.
"Who cares! I need Details! I haven't had a good gossip since High school!" squealed the brunette, Haley looked at her wide-eyed.
" Uh-Brooke, I'm standing right here!" cried the married brunette."
"Your point is? Geez,Tutor girl. You can be really dense sometimes."
"Her point is, that she obviously feels uncomfortable hearing about her best friend's sex life." butted Peyton,Haley nodding in agreement.
"So? I listen to your sex life and I turned out just fine." Haley sighed as she realized she wouldn't be able to win this battle against a very negotionable Brooke.
"Let er' rip,Peyton."
"So what was it? Earth-shattering, Out of this world? What?" asked the brunette.
"At the risk of acting total cliche, It was perfect."
"How many times,P?" asked the brunette, eyes holding mischief.
" Once last night and three times this morning."
"Holy Camoly, do you two ever come up for air! You guy's go at it like rabbits!" yelled Haley, mortified.
" I wouldn't be talking Hales, your married to a sex-god." she turned to Brooke with a smirk. " And as for you, God knows Chase must be gettin some at least everyday with you around." she laughed heartily as they turned tomato red. " Speaking of, How is life with Brooke and Chase?" Brooke squealed happily.
"Fabulous! Chase is taking me out tonight at this fancy Spanish restaurant, mind you." she sighed. " I've missed this."
"So have we,Tigger." said Hales as she pulled her friends into a bone-crushing hug. Peyton smiled.
" How about we go clubbing tonight and get a few drinks? Just us girls." she took out her credit card. " I'll even contribute and celebrate, drinks on me."
"Okay, I officially love after-glow Peyton!." cried Hales. Peyton could only nudge her playfully as Brooke grinned.
"I call shot gun!" yelled the brunette as she dived head-first into the comet and groaned as she hit her head on one of Peyton's cd. Haley and Peyton laughed at their cynical friend and entered the comet with smiles on their face.
" Good work,Team!" he blew his whistle. "Hit the shower's, your dismissed." The Ravens members cheered in agreement as they walked into their changing rooms. Nate walked up to hsi brothers.
" What's up with you? They weren't even playing they're hearts out and you congratulate them like they're God almighty." said the brunette boy,curiously.
"Can't a man just be in a good mood?" Skills took one look at his best friend's face and grinned as he clasped him on the back.
" My man got booty!" he yelled, grinning. " Nice work,dude." Nathan laughed.
" Bro,seriously take that look off your face." he smirked. " most people would think you won the lottery." Skills raised an eyebrow.
" he did, shoot the thought's got me horny," Lucas smirked.
" Why don't you work your magic on Bevin."
" I might just do that." Yelled the black man as he took out his cellphone. Lucas grinned, Skills and Bevin reconnected at the failed marriage he didn't like to talk about and Bevin informed him that she had dumped Tim for Skills and the pair had been unseparable since.
"Yeah,man work it!" Nate and Luke turned around and had to grin at the sight they saw.
" Show them who you workin' with, baby!" yelled Quentin as he taught them the rest of the dance ( think of the dance that Jamie did for the song In the Ayer)
" That's hot!" he grinned. "Y'all gon' be professionals in no time." Jamie and Kaylee grinned at each other and high-fived. Kaylee grinned at her daddy.
"Daddy, did woo see dat!"
" I sure did,princess!"exclaimed the father as he picked up his daughter. "Say bye,Kayls. We're leaving."
"Bye byes!" yelled the three year old, grinning.
"Bye!" chorused the three as they watched father and daughter walk out of the gym. 20 minutes later the pair had gotten home.
" What do you wanna watch when we get home,Princess?"
" Suites lifes of Zack and Codys please."
"You got it!" he frowned as he realized,Kaylee was glaring at something, anger evident in her eyes and looked up, shock being written on his face. The woman took a step towards them.
"Hi." she took a deep breath. " How've you been."
"Lindsay-" said the 22 year old, his shock being shaken out of him by the squeeze that had been brought from the furious three year old. " What are you doing here?"
