Chapter 8

Haley wiped the tear from her eyes. "I'm sorry Nathan," she told him as she turned away and went back into the apartment.

"Nate, I'm sorry man, sometimes when it's over, it's just…over," Lucas told him hoping that his brother would recover from this.

Nathan turned back but before he could walk away he heard the door slam and heard splashing from behind him.

"Nathan!" he heard his name being called. It was that voice, that angelic voice he loved so much, the voice that belonged to his girl, his wife, Haley.

He turned around to face the blonde who was running through the rain and trying to get to him in nothing but shorts, a tank top and her puffy slippers.

Nathan smiled as he saw her but was confused when she stopped mid way. She stopped threw her slippers to the side and ran faster into the arms of the man she loves.

Nathan picked her up and held onto her tightly as he kissed her passionately. "I thought for a minute there you had turned me down," he told her.

"Never, I love you Nathan Scott and I'm sorry for everything," she told him.

"Shhh, I don't wanna here it babe, it's just you and me and the rest of our lives from now on, the past doesn't matter except for the good times," he told her as she smiled at him with loving eyes.

Haley giggled as she rested her head into his neck. She loved the way he smelled and the way he held her tightly and the way he tasted. She just loved everything about him. She couldn't be happier. Finally her dream was coming true, her and Nathan would be man and wife again.

"May I have this dance?" Nathan asked as he held his hand out to her.

Haley giggled, "Nathan it's pouring out and there's no music."

"I can fix that!" Brooke shouted from behind the bush.

Haley laughed as she noticed Brooke and Lucas rush to the car and turn the radio on full blast.

"And I will love you 'til forever
Until death do us part we'll be together
So take my hand and hold on tight
And we'll get there
This I swear"

"Happy Valentine's Day Haley James Scott," Nathan said as he pulled her closer to him.

"Happy Valentine's Day Nathan," she said back as he leaned in and kissed her. He was so in love and nothing would ever change that. No one could ever make him feel the way Haley did.

"Oh before I forget, would you do me a favor?" he asked her sweetly.

She looked into his eyes adoringly, "Anything," she whispered with a smile on her face.

"Would you put this ring back on me?" he asked her as he took the chain off of his neck.

Haley smiled as she took the chain and opened it, sliding the ring into her palm. She slid the ring onto his wedding finger. "That feels good," he told her. "I've missed not having my ring on," he told her. "And I've missed having you around," she told him.

They kissed once again, this time he lifted her back up so that her raw feet weren't on the ground. She wrapped her legs around him without letting their lips break apart.

"We're so going to get sick," he told her chuckling. "Oh but it's so worth it!" she said as she hugged him tighter and kissed him all over.

February 14th, the day that Tric threw its very first Valentine's Day party, the day that Chase became part of the group of friends, the day that Brooke and Lucas expressed their love for one another and the day that Haley and Nathan reunited as man and wife. Everything was the way it was supposed to be, Naley was together and the rest, well the rest would be figured out later, together, always and forever.
