Haley, Brooke, Rachel, Quinn, Millicent, and Anna were all standing in front of the long mirror in Haley's parents room since they left. The girls were busy getting ready for the party while the boys went to get the drinks.
"We're here!"Peyton said as she walked into the trailer followed by Bevin and Nathan.
"Hey." Haley said as she emerged from her parents room followed by her friends. "The boys left to get drinks, they should be back soon." They all nodded. Anna's phone started ringing after that. She glanced at the caller id.
"Excuse me." Anna said as she quickly retreated to the porch to answer her phone.
"What was that?" Peyton asked confused.
"It's probably Theresa." Rachel said rolling her eyes. Anna then appeared in the doorway.
"So please don't be mad at me..I tried to stop her!" Anna tried to explain. "I don't know how but Theresa found out about the party and is planning on crashing it." Anna said, she hated being put in this position. Haley rolled her eyes and flopped down on the couch.
"That girl is so annoying." Nathan said sitting down next to Haley who sat there looking pissed.
"Tell me about it." Rachel mumbled.
"Are you mad?" Anna asked Haley.
"Not at you. I'm just mad in general, I want a drama free night." Haley explained frustrated.
"Just avoid her, I sure as hell am."Nathan said as they all laughed.
It was now around 9 o'clock and the party was in full swing.
"Okay party people, let's play I never!" Brooke squealed excitedly, she loved drinking games. Haley, Lucas, Nathan, Peyton, Brooke, Bevin, Rachel, Mouth, Millicent, Tim, Felix, Chase, Jake, and Anna were all playing. "I'll start! Never have I ever had sex on the beach!" Brooke said laughing knowing one person she could get.
"Bitch." Rachel mumbled taking a sip of her drink as they laughed. Haley then saw Theresa entering the trailer but just glared at her before turning her attention back to the game. It was now Millicent's turn.
"Umm..I can never think of anything.." Millicent said thinking. "Never have I ever been in a car that flipped over. Sorry guys it was the first thing I came up with." Millicent explained. Haley, Rachel, and Anna all nodded before taking a sip.
"Wait! When did this happen?" Nathan asked curiously.
"Last year, Rachel was driving. We were all fine. The car basically hit a patch of ice and flipped over a guard rail. It flipped a few times before landing on its roof. I just got stitches in my knee because I had to crawl out the back window. The cops on scene said they'd never seen an accident that bad without an deaths." Haley told him.
"Wow, that's bad." Nathan answered. "How did I not hear about this?"
"I'm surprised you didn't, mom and dad knew." Peyton said speaking up. "Anyway, my turn. Never have I ever..."
"Never have I ever I love this game." Theresa said behind them. "Oh, I've got one never have I ever been a prude virgin." Theresa said with a grin. "Drink up Haley." Haley just glared at Rachel as she took a drink. Haley had enough of Theresa games. She always had to start something. Haley knew she had to speak up Theresa always got away with her games.
"Never have I ever slept with a guy and regretted it. Then tried to call it rape. Drink up Theresa!" Haley said shocking everyone, they knew she had to be pissed.
"Never have I ever been in love with someone for years and never had the guts to tell them. Looks like you drink again Haley!"Theresa said with an evil grin. Theresa knew the history of Haley like Nathan since they used to be good friends and was always jealous. Haley glared at her for a minute before gulping down the rest of her drink and slamming the cup down on the table. She them stormed out of the trailer. Much to everyones surprise Nathan slowly raised the cup and drank. Peyton smiled knowing. Theresa however looked beyond pissed by his actions. Brooke got up and ran outside to find Haley.
"Do you have to be such a bitch? No one wants you here, don't you get that by now?" Rachel yelled as she stood up. Theresa just rolled her eyes and walked away.
When Brooke got outside she found Haley sitting on the steps outside of the trailer. Brooke sat on the step next to her.
"Are you okay?" Brooke said softly.
"I've been better." Haley answered.
"Don't even let her bother you." Brooke said wrapping her arm around Haley's shoulders. "She's such a bitch."
"I shouldn't have let her get to me like that." Haley mumbled.
"For the record whatever she was trying to pull just backfired on her." Brooke said grinning at Haley.
"Why?" Haley asked confused.
"Because Nathan drank too." Brooke answered still grinning.
"Wh-what?" Haley stammered.
"He took a drink after you left. Theresa almost died." Rachel said laughing as she took the seat on Haley's other side.
"That doesn't mean it was about me guys. He has a lot of girls." Haley mumbled knowing what her friends were implying.
"I think they are right Haley bob." Quinn said stepping out on the porch. "I see the way he looks at you, he always has looked at you like you were special but this year it's more noticeable." Quinn said. Just then Haley noticed Theresa making her way towards them. Rachel jumped up blocking her from Haley.
"Listen drama queen you have no right to be here, I told you that inside. You weren't invited. You also had no right to say what you said in there! None of it is your business anymore because you and Haley aren't friends anymore!" Rachel exclaimed.
"Who the hell do you think your talking to? I don't have a problem with you. My problem is with your bitch of a friend." Theresa said looking at Haley.
"Well, I have a problem with you, always have! And your the bitch not Haley and everyone knows it!" Rachel fired back.
"At least I'm not a pathetic virgin." Theresa said with a smirk. With that Haley stepped up and slapped her across the face.
"Enough! Seriously, you need new material!" Haley yelled rolling her eyes. "You need to get your slutty ass off my property. No one wants you here so get the hell out of here!"Haley said losing it. At that moment Theresa tried to slap Haley but Rachel stepped in and punched Theresa. Theresa immediately tackled Rachel to the ground. As Rachel's best friend Brooke to jump on Theresa's back to help. Carrie came out of nowhere. Carrie was Theresa's sister. Carrie then jumped at Brooke smacking her which she immediately hit her back. Theresa and Carrie's friend Maggie jumped in. Haley then jumped on Theresa trying to help Rachel who was on the ground. Quinn took the opportunity to punch Theresa in the face while Haley helped Rachel up. Peyton came out just in time to see Carrie going at Brooke and immediately went to help by punching Carrie in the face. Anna stood there the whole time not know what to do. At some point she would try to yell to them. "Guys stop! Please!" But it was no use they kept going. Millicent was even yelling for them to stop. Bevin came out to help Peyton. When Haley shoved Theresa away from them Theresa back fired by slapping Haley hard in the face. Haley then punched her.
CAT FIGHT!!" Tim yelled chanting.
It was not long before most of the guys there noticed the cat fight going on. Lucas, Felix, Mouth, Chase ran over followed by Tim. Lucas ran over to grab Brooke who was taking another swing at Carrie, Felix grabbed Rachel, Chase grabbed Peyton who was still trying to get hits in, and Tim grabbed Carrie, Mouth pulled Bevin back. Anna tried to grab Theresa who was continuing to go after Haley. Jake then appears out of nowhere and stopped Theresa. "Now get the hell off my campsite!" Haley yelled going to slap her but then felt two strong arms going around her waist pulling her back stopped her. It was Nathan.
"Theresa, Carrie I think you need to leave now!" Nathan yelled still holding Haley.
"They started it!" Theresa yelled.
"No you started it by being a bitch!" Nathan yelled. "Get out of here!" They just stormed off pissed. Once they were gone Nathan released Haley. "Are you okay?"
"Yeah, I'm fine. I shouldn't have let her get to me like that." Haley said.
"No! She deserved it…" just then Nathan noticed Haley's cheek was red from being hit, he then touched it softly "It looks like it hurts. Do you want me to get you some ice?" Nathan asked still touching her cheek. Haley was finding it hard to think with him touching her.
"No I will be fine." Haley said with a small smile "Thank you…" Haley said before leaning up and giving him a small kiss of the cheek before walking away to check on her friends. Nathan smiled softly before following behind her.
After the girls had calmed down and cleaned up they got back to the party.
"That's so not how I pictured my night going!" Haley said with a sigh.
"I know I'm sorry." Anna said truly sorry for everything that happened.
"It's not your fault.: She said.
"I personally wish no one stopped up from kicked their asses." Rachel exclaimed.
"Me too." Brooke agreed. Haley smiled at them shaking her head.
"Let's go drink."Haley said. She could definitely use a drink right now.
Rachel made her way inside and instantly noticed some slutty girl all over Nathan. Rachel couldn't help but overhear part of their conversation.
"Wanna finish what we started last summer?" The girl said stoking his thigh.
"I'm really not interested." Nathan said taking another sip of his drink. He really didn't want to be bothered by this girl right now. It was sick of the random hook ups and the girls that just simply threw themselves at him.
"Come on baby, you know you want to?" Nathan just sighed clearly annoyed/
"Hey skank I believe he said he wasn't interested and I also don't think you were invited!" Rachel said stepping in, Nathan looked desperate.
"And who the hell are you?" The girl asked.
"None of you business, now this is my best friends party so get your skank ass out of here!
"Ughh whatever this parties lame! Nathan remember what I said!" The girl said with a wink leaving.
"Hi, thanks for that she was getting annoying!" Nathan mumbled.
"No problem." Rachel said taking the seat next to him. "So are you having fun?"
"Oh yeah, how could I now be after that cat fight?!" He said with a laugh. Rachel smiled.
"Yeah that bitch had it coming! No one messes with my best friend!" Rachel said with a smile. "So I saw you drink at that last never have I ever thing." Rachel said looking over at him.
"Uh.. yeah" Nathan said looking down.
"It's Haley you were drinking about wasn't it?"
"Wha-What?" Nathan stuttered. Rachel just simply laughed.
"You like her don't you, I see the way you look at her." She said.
"We are just friends." Nathan replied.
"Mhm your just as quick to say that as Haley. And you know what else?"
"What?" Nathan asked curiously.
"Your just as bad of a liar as her too!" Rachel said laughing.
"No I uh-" Nathan started struggling for worlds but Rachel cut him off putting a hand up to stop him.
"You don't have to explain anything to me. Just don't wait too long to tell her!" She said with a wink and got up and walked away. Nathan just sat there dumbfounded.
Haley was just about to go back inside the trailer when she saw Felix sitting by himself on the steps.
"Hey. What are you doing?" Haley asked taking a seat next to him.
"Thinking." Felix said looking away.
"Oh …. About what? You know you can talk to me right?" Haley said gently placing her hand on his arm.
"I know I just don't think it's something you really wanna hear.."
"Come on we've been friends for how long…you can talk to me anything." Haley said waiting for the answer. After what seemed like forever Felix finally looked at her and began to speak.
"Please don't hate me..but lately I've been thinking a lot about us. I want to be with you Haley I really screwed up a couple months ago after I led you on and we kissed. I shouldn't have pulled away from you like I did I was stupid I really did want to be with you then and I still do…"
"Felix I –" Before she could finish she was cut off my Felix's lips crashing onto hers. She was too shocked to respond she just gently pushed away from him placing her hands on his chest stopping him. Haley bit her lip nervously looking down.
"Felix..that's really sweet but what we had was months ago. I'm sorry but it's too late. If you had said this all months ago my answer might have been different but you're kind of back with Rachel now and she's my best friend and I can't do that to her. I…I just don't feel the same but you anymore. I really care about you but as a friend I'm sorry please understand.." Haley said before rising from her seat on the step.
"Wait Haley can't we talk about this..you can't forget about what we could have had!" Felix tried pleading with her but this only frustrated Haley more. Months ago she wanted nothing more than to make it work with him but he screwed that up.
"I didn't until you continuously pushed me away Felix. I was right there I wanted to be with you THEN but too much time has passed I just don't want that anymore. What happened really hurt me but I got over it and I'm sorry if I am hurting you now but I just…I just have feelings for someone else now." Haley said mumbling the last few words but Felix heard them and just put his head down as she got up and walked away.
That was the first time she had even admitted to herself she had feelings for Nathan even though she didn't tell Felix who it was. Haley tried to tell herself that she and Nathan would never happen because she lost hope after all those years of liking him. She had managed to convince herself she was over liking him but seeing him again was too much for her. She really did like Nathan Scott. But did her like her?
Once Haley got back inside Rachel was talking to Nathan and Lucas. She went over to them immediately.
"Haley, let's take shots." Rachel suggested hanging her a shot.
"I could definitely use one." Haley replied thinking back to her conversation with Felix. Haley quickly downed it wincing a little. "Another." Haley said placing her shot glass back on the counter.
"Everything alright?" Lucas asked. Haley rarely every drank this quickly. She usually only had a little at a slow pace unless something was bothering her.
"Oh just peachy." Haley answered downing another shot before pouring herself another. She then stumbled over to the couch next to Jake. Rachel followed after her.
"How you feeling?" Jake asked.
"Perfect." Haley shrieked.
"Yeah, I'd say." Rachel said laughing, Haley had always been a light weight.
"Look over there!" Haley said pointing. "Brooke and Peyton are talking."
"That's nice Hales now stop pointing." Jake said lowering her finger.
"I think they could be friends. Peyton helped Brooke in the fight." Quinn commented sitting down with them.
"I saw that too." Rachel commented.
"Let's play truth or dare!" Brooke said excitedly.
"Brooke your games never end well." Rachel said rolling her eyes.
"No come on It's just us now please." Brooke said looking around it was now just Brooke, Peyton, Lucas, Millicent, Mouth, Bevin, Nathan, Felix, Jake, Anna, Chase, Haley, Rachel, and Tim.
"Okay, me first!" Brooke yelled "Haley, Truth or Dare?"
Haley was usually one to pick truth but tonight she didn't maybe it was the numerous thoughts she had but she found herself saying…."Dare"
"Okay, I dare you to sing for us!" Brooke was the only one of few that knew Haley could sing. The few who knew were Lucas, Brooke, Rachel, and Anna.
"Ugh, fine!" Haley said has she sang "Halo"
Most of the group sat there in disbelief, how did they not know how good of a singer she was?
"Oh my God! Haley, that was awesome! How did I not know you could sing?!" Peyton asked shocked.
"I don't usually let people hear me sing…" She mumbled.
"You are really good Haley." Nathan said still staring at her still in somewhat of shock, he had known her for years and never knew she could sing like that.
"Yeah, you're awesome!" Millicent commented.
"Thanks guys!" Haley said blushing slightly. "Okay, let's continue with the game. Umm, Anna! Truth or dare?"
"Truth." Anna replied.
"Why are you still friends with Theresa?"
"Because she was there for me when you guys weren't." Anna answered clearly frustrated. About a year ago mostly everyone stopped hanging out with Anna because she started drinking really heavily and she wouldn't listen to anyone who tried to help. After numerous fights Haley and her friends no longer wanted any part in it and stopped hanging out with Anna except Theresa who only condoned her drinking. After some time apart Haley and Anna fixed their friendship causing everyone else to forgive to.
"Sorry." Haley mumbled knowing she was wrong to ask. The game continued for a few more minutes. It was now Brooke's turn to pick a person.
"Nathan, Truth or Dare?"
"Dare!" Nathan said very confidently he would never back down from a dare.
"I dare you to kiss Haley! Like a real full on kiss!" Brooke said with an evil smirk. "With tongue." Brooke added.
"Umm, okay only if it's okay with her." Nathan said looking nervous
"Sure, it's just a game." Haley said shrugging her shoulders now really understanding why Nathan seemed so nervous that was completely unlike him! At that moment they both turned to look at each other locking eyes. Both seeming nervous, never once in their years of friendship have they ever kissed all though Haley always hoped they would. They both slowly inched forward. The moment their lips touched the kiss was extremely passionate more than either of them could have ever imagined. Haley was seeing fireworks she had never been kissed with this much passion before. Sure she had kissed other guys but none like this. Nathans tongue then grazed Haley's bottom lip. She immediately opened her mouth allowing his tongue entrance to her mouth. They forgot about the game and their friends watching.
After what seemed like forever Brooke finally spoke "Uh, okay guys that's enough…." She said looking around at the shocked faces of all of her friends and then back to Nathan and Haley who continued kissing. "Hey love birds break it up!" she said louder. Haley immediately pulled back from the kiss embarrassed that everyone was watching. Haley avoided looking at Nathan not sure how he was reacting to the kiss. Felix was just staring at her completely pissed but no one but Haley seemed to notice.
"Um yeah how about we got for a walk guys?" Haley said blushing.
Everyone agreed and followed her outside. Lucas was soon ahead of everyone as Brooke skipped up next to him.
"Hey Broody." Brooke said smiling taking his hand.
"Hey Cheery." Lucas responded kissing her cheek. Brooke then stopped short when she saw the lake.
"Guys let's go swimming!" Brooke said excitedly.
"I'm in!" Peyton said walking up next to her.
"Let's have some fun!" Quinn said smiling coming up next to Brooke and Peyton.
"Um we don't have bathing suites...I'm drunk but not stupid." Haley said shaking her head.
"Come on Hales, live a little. Go in your bra and underwear." Rachel said as she began stripping her clothes like the rest of the group. Haley thought about it for a minute this usually wasn't something she would do but tonight she wanted to have fun. She followed the rest of the groups lead.
"It says no swimming after dusk." Millicent said hesitantly. She hated getting into trouble.
"It's fine just put your clothes in the bushes so the campground owner doesn't see them if he walks by." Lucas said as they all hid their clothes. A few minutes later they all went running into the water. Everyone was joking around and splashing each other. Then Nathan saw Haley and swam over to her picking her up.
"Nathan don't you dare-" Haley yelled but it was too late he had already dunked her in the water.
"Oops I'm sorry that was a totally accident." Nathan joked.
"Oh yeah well so was this." Haley said as she splashed him then jumping on his back dunking him under.
" Oh, you are so going to get it now!" Nathan said wrapping his arms around her waist as he began to tickle her. She was laughing uncontrollably when all of a sudden they saw a light from a flashlight heading their way.
"Quick guys go under!" Chase whispered. Everyone ducked their head under the water. After what seemed like forever they all slowly started emerging from the water. As they did the camp ground owner already had his back turned walking away.
"That was close!" Lucas whispered laughing.
"Shh!" Haley said splashing him. At the sound of water splashing the campground owner started turning around again.
"Shit. Under." Nathan said as everyone went under again. They saw the flashlight shine their way the move. He was walking away as they all slowly came up for air.
"That was close." Quinn said pulling her hair into a pony tail.
"Okay can we go back I am so cold?" Rachel whined. Everyone headed back to the site. Nathan, Peyton, and Bevin decided to spend the night at their site. Peyton, Jake, Brooke, Lucas, Mouth, Milli, Rachel and Felix all squeezed in the tent. Anna and Bevin slept in the back bedroom. Nathan took the couch in the living room while Tim slept on the floor on a small float used for the lake. Haley decided to sleep in her parents room since they weren't there.
After about an hour Haley was still lying awake in bed. She couldn't fall asleep partly because she was thinking about things that happened that night and partly because someone was snoring in the living room. She finally sat up and crawled to the edge of the bed and slide the door open to look in to the living room. When she did this Nathan sat up a little to look at her. Suddenly another snore was heard and Haley realized it was Tim. She started laughing along with Nathan.
"That was him snoring!" Haley whispered while laughing. "It's so loud."
"I know." Nathan said laughing. Haley then noticed something.
"What is he like snuggling with?" Haley asked leaning over to see it better.
"I don't know..what is that?" Nathan said squinting to see it better.
"Oh my god!" Haley said as her eyes went wide. "That's Bevin's shirt." Haley said as she covered her mouth to stop from laughing.
"That kid has it bad." Nathan said shaking his head.
"What a creep!" Haley said getting up and snatching it away from him. "Shouldn't you be mad it's your cousin."
"I'll get him later." Nathan said laughing.
"I'll give this to her tomorrow." Haley said tossing the shirt in her room. "Now how do we get him to stop snoring?" Nathan shrugged then grinned. "What?" Haley knew that look it meant he was up to no good.
"I have an idea but I need you help." Nathan said standing up. Nathan opened the sliding door to the deck. "We are going to put him outside."
"Aw Nate, that's mean." Haley said but then Tim snored again. "Oh whatever, let's do it." Haley said grabbing the end with his feet while Nathan grabbed the end with his head.
"On three pick it up." Nathan whispered. "One..two..three." Nathan said as they slowly lifted it up. They carefully carried him out the door.
"Oh god his feet smell."Haley said making a disgusted face as Nathan laughed and accidently walked into the table on the porch. After hitting the table Nathan got distracted and tipped the float and Tim rolled off hitting the floor. Haley gasped and covered her mouth trying to stop from laughing. Nathan grimaced but then Tim rolled over and didn't wake up. Nathan laughed and ushed Haley back into the house shutting the door.
"Oh my god!" Haley said laughing. "How did he not wake up?"
"I don't know, I guess he's used to being dropped on his head." Nathan said has Haley smacked him.
"Okay well I'm going to go to bed." Haley said smiling. "Night Nate."
"Night Hales." Nathan said as she went into her room and closed the door. Haley crawled back into bed and laid back to try to fall asleep. She laid there for about a half an hour and still couldn't fall asleep.
Then suddenly she heard a knock on her door. "Yeah?" Haley said not knowing who it was at the door.
Haley saw Nathan slowly sliding the door open, peaking his head in."Hi."
"Hey, why aren't you sleeping?" Haley asked.
"I'm sorry if I woke you up it's just that couch is so uncomfortable and I can't sleep-" Before Nathan could finish what he was saying Haley cut him off.
"Come on." She said sliding over to one side of the bed. "You can sleep here."
"Are you sure?"
"Yeah, of course! It's a big bed, its fine!" She said with a small laugh. Haley was beginning to sober up at this point.
"Thanks." He said had he slid in bed next to her. He noticed that she was extremely far away from him. "I don't bite." He joked.
"I know." She laughed moving a little closer still feeling awkward.
After a few minutes on silence Nathan suddenly spoke "That thing Theresa said in have I never, Never have I ever been in liked with someone for years and never had the guts to tell them….umm …you drank..who did you drink about?" He wasn't really sure if he should be asking her that but he did anyway.
" Umm I-I u-u-m." Haley stuttered when Nathan turned to look at her.
"It was Felix, right?" Nathan said suddenly as she gave him a confused look. "It's okay I kinda say you guys outside. I was outside and I heard him talking to you then when he kissed you I went back inside."
"No-" Haley said shaking her head.
"I won't tell Rachel." Nathan said thinking that was why she was denying it.
"Oh, Nathan…" Haley began.
"No you don't need to explain it to me." Nathan said.
"No I want to…Felix and I had something a couple months ago but it never evolved into anything big….we just didn't work…its exactly what I wanted him to say." Nathan looked away in sadness. " but not now, months ago.." Haley then took a deep breath. " I told him I had feelings for someone else and..." Haley said pausing again. "That someone was you." Haley said just above a whisper. "During the game when I drank I was thinking of you." Haley clarified, she was done hiding her feelings.
"Wha- What?" Nathan managed to stutter out. Before Haley could process what was happening his lips crashed into hers. However, she responded to the kiss instantly kissing him with all the passion she had in her that had been built up over the years. As they pulled away they rested their foreheads together. "Wow" Haley breathed "That was—"
"I know." He said knowing what she was gunna say before she said it. "I drank too…and I was thinking about you.." He told her.
"I've wanted to do that for years…"Haley said looking down only to have Nathan place his finger beneath her chin to lift her head up to look into her eyes.
"Me too, I just never thought I was good enough for you or that you would feel that same." Nathan admitted.
"Nathan, I've liked you for as long as I can remember. I just figured you would never feel that same about me I didn't think I was good enough—" Haley was cut off by Nathan's lips crashing into hers once again. This kiss was soft and gentle filled with love. As they broke apart Haley snuggled into his chest as she wrapped his arms around her waist. They stayed like that the rest of the night.
