You Scare Me

Haley had gotten home about 20 minutes ago, she had run straight to her car after Nathan had kissed her and she had driven home. She was lying on her bed, crying. She liked Nathan, she did, and obviously he liked her too, but she couldn't let the same things that happened to her when she was with Chris happen again. She closed her eyes, hoping to get some sleep.

"Hales, I'm so sorry of what I did, I never meant to hurt you. Please forgive me." Chris pleaded to Haley, it had been the first day she saw him since he stabbed her two weeks ago.

"Yeah, I've heard that before. I can't take this any longer, Chris." Haley said in between sobs, she had been crying non stop since he showed up at her appartment, their appartment. She had hoped he would just dissapear.

"Please, just give me one last chance, it's all I ask. You ow me that." Chris said, his voice suddenly turning threatening. Haley was scared, she had no idea what to .

Haley woke up again, yet another restless night for her. She clearly remembered that day, she had only taken him back because she was scared of what he might have done if she hadn't taken him back. But from that day on, things had gotten from bad to worse.

As she thought about why she ran away from Nathan, Chris was probably the reason, he always was the reason why she held back on dating, on finding love. She hated him for making her feel so scared all the time. She wondered if she should call Nathan, give him some sort of explanation, but she was too scared to do so. Suddenly, the phone rang.

"Hello ?" Haley asked, waiting for the person on the other side to speak.

"Euh, hey, it's Nathan. Euh, how are you ?" Nathan asked, he was wavering, Haley heard, which she didn't blame him.

"I'm good, thanks. Euh, I guess you're calling about what happened tonight ?" Haley asked, she hoped he wasn't mad or anything, she couldn't deal with that.

"Yeah, I euh, I'm sorry if I cam on too strong or anything, I certainly didn't intend on doing so. Maybe you'll give me another shot and meet me for coffée in the morning ?" Nathan asked, Haley hesitated, but then accepted to meet him at 7 o'clock. She put down the phone and tried to get some more sleep.

Meanwhile, a certain young haired brunette woke up in her bed in the middle of the night, but she was not alone. Besides Brooke Davis layed Lucas Scott. Brooke looked at him and sighed, she never brought anyone to her appartment, she never even picked someone up so fast as she had done last night, but so many things were going on in her life, that she just wanted to feel numb. But she had made a big mistake, because if she thought this would make her feel numb, she was wrong, Lucas had actually made her feel alive.

She sighed and stood up, starting to look for her underwear.

"Hey pretty girl." She heard someone behind her say, she turned around to see Lucas awake and looking at her, she smiled.

"Hey, euh, Lucas, was it ?" Brooke asked, hoping she had his name right, he nodded, confirming she was right.

"Come back to bed. It's the middle of the night, your clothes can wait." Lucas smirked as he pulled Brooke back into a kiss, he had no idea why, but he wanted her to stay in his arms for the rest of his life, or at least the rest of the night.

"Oh, you're so evil." Brooke said as she now too kissed him back, continueing their previous activity.
