Chapter 27
''Hey sisters.'' Taylor said as she sat on the couch next to them.
Quinn turned to Taylor, ''What are you doing here Tay?''
''I'm here for your wedding silly, you think I'd miss this?'' she asked.
''Yes.'' Haley said blankly. She's never liked Taylor, she hates how much of a whore she is, she hates how she treats guys, she hates how much of a bitch she is, she needed Taylor when he mom wasn't here, but Taylor always pushed her away, then when she needs something she'll come crawling back.
Just as Taylor was about to respond Nathan came running down the stairs, ''Hales, Karen want something from the store,'' he ran up to her and kissed her on the cheek ''I'll be about an hour, bye.'' and with that he was out of the door, not even seeing another James sat on the sofa. Nathan's got really scared of Karen these past weeks with her pregnancy hormones, if Karen can't get hold of Lucas or Kieth then she'll call him, he's one of her slaves.
''So Hales got a boyfriend, huh?'' Taylor said slyly.
''Yeah, remember the last one, Jake?'' she said sarcastically, ''YOU TRIED TO SLEEP WITH HIM!''
''Oh him, I remember... is he coming to the wedding?'' she asked Quinn eagerly.
''Yeah he is,'' Haley answered for her ''and his girlfriend Peyton will kick your ass. She wont care that your my family.''
''Whatever, I'm going to bed.'' Taylor skipped off to her room eagerly, she's sick of Haley being mad at her.
Quinn turned to Hales, ''It's not for long, as soon as the wedding over she'll leave.'' she assured her.
''I know, she just pushes my buttons, you know?'' Haley said, running her hand through her hair.
''I know Haley-Bop, once Vivians here she'll calm her down.'' she laughed. Vivian was always the controller in the family, because she's the oldest girl, everytime Taylor used to mess or be a bitch Vivian would just shout and shout at her, that taught her never to be a bitch infront of Vivian.
Haley laughed to, then Nathan came walking through the door. ''It turns out she's got enough chocolate for tonight.'' he laughed, then he noticed his girlfriends was really tense and angry, he walked round to the couch and sat next to her. ''You okay?'' he asked, pulling her into a hug and kissing the top of her head.
''Taylors home,'' she groaned. She had already told Nathan how angry Taylor makes her and the stuff she does. ''can we go to bed?''
''Sure, good night Quinn.'' Nathan said taking Haleys hand and standing up.
''Goodnight Quinny.'' Haley hugged Quinn and whispered in her ear. ''Talk to him.''
Quinn just smiled at her in reassurance, ''Goodnight guys.''
Haleys eyes fluttered open as the sun beamed through her blinds, she looked over at Nathan and saw he was already awake, which made her smile.
''Hi.''she whispered.
''Hi.'' he whispered back.
''How long have you been awake?''
''About ten minutes,'' he said, grinning. Haley really did look beautiful, even with messy hair and sleepy eyes. He just had to watch her when she was asleep, she looked so peaceful, he didn't want to wake her up. ''you snore.'' he joked.
Haley gasped and hit him on the chest, ''I do not snore!''
He held his hands up in surrender, ''Kidding!''
''Good,'' she sat up and climbed on top of him and he brushed his lips against hers.
After about twenty minutes of making out they heard the door barge open and they pulled apart, Nathan groaned which probly was a mistake considering who's just walked it.
''Mikey, Matty, Justin!'' Haley said happily and climbed out of bed to hug them.
''Hey Haley-Bop.'' They all said as they pulled her into a group hug.
''I didn't know you were coming.''
''I bet you didn't.'' Matt said, glancing at an very embarressed Nathan, still sat in Haley's bed.
''Why would we miss meeting the guy who's marrying Quinn? and meet your new guy Hales, why didn't you tell us?'' Mike said hurt, Mike is the youngest boy in the family, so Haley was closer to him than Matt or Justin. She always told him everything, she even called him after her and Jake broke up.
''Because last time, you came home and took Jake's number out of my cell, you called him at two in the morning pretending to be my second cousin who's in prison, and if he hurt me you'd send Tony to kill him.'' she said annoyed, Jake actually thought he was serious, she had to reassure him for two weeks that she didn't have a second cousin in prison.
''I didn't know you know about that.'' he muttered.
''So Hales, why's there a shirtless guy in your bed?'' Justin said, glaring at Nathan. He was always the one that used to beat up the guys who hurt there sisters, he would do it to this guy if he hurt Haley.
Nathan thought this would be a good time to finally speak, ''I'm Nathan, Haley's boyfriend.'' he climbed out of the bed and hesitantly shook there hands.
''Why arn't you wearing a shirt, Nathan?'' Justin asked, if this guy slept with his sister he was going to kill him.
''He slept over,'' Haley said quickly before Justin could do anything stupid, ''and we didn't have sex.''
The brothers covered there ears, ''Hales, you didn't have to say it!'' Matt said.
''You've never heard it before?'' she teased.
''Yeah, but not from you, you're our baby sister.'' Mike whined.
Haley just laughed at her brothers and shoved them out of her room, ''Go, I need to get dressed.'' she then slammed the door in there faces. She turned to a shocked Nathan, ''It's gonna be a hectic couple of days.'' she mumbled.
''Little James? Nate? Quinn?'' Clay called as he walked through the door.
He walked in and saw Quinn sat on the sofa drinking some coffee, she looked up at him and smiled. ''Haley and Nate are upstairs, I wouldn't go up there if I were you, I think Nathan's meeting our over protective big brothers.'' she laughed and patted the spot next to her, asking him to sit down.
He sat down next to her hesitantly, after her confession yesterday it's kind of awkward. ''So..'' he started, ''where's David?'' he asked with a hint of jealousy. He just hopes she talked to him.
''He's out with Tom, the best man. He's buying his suit.'' she said, taking another sip of her coffee.
''Suit? You're still going through with it?'' he asked, shocked.
''Yeah.'' she sighed, trying to show him she wanted to, she wasn't doing a good job.
''Did you talk to him?'' he asked, hoping she'd atleast told David her problems.
''I did..''
Flashback-
Quinn is in her room looking at photographs from Africa, she's also got one from when she visited David's family, and another from when they came here a few months ago to see Haley. The one in Africa, her and David looked so happy, they both had genuine smiles on there faces. The second one, David still had that cheesy genuine grin on his face, Quinn had a cheesy grin too, but she was fighting back tears. She absolutely hated it there, she felt so out of place. The third one, she was so happy with her sister and her friends, thats all it was, they were just sat about talking and Brooke snapped a picture. David was the one that looked out of place this time, it wasn't fair on either of them.
''Hey baby.'' Quinn said climbing onto the bed and kissing her cheek.
''Hi.'' she said still staring at the picture.
''You okay?'' he asked, she seemed really distracted.
''Are you happy here?'' she blurted out.
''Yeah, Tree Hills nice.''
''Nice.'' she scoffed. ''Are you as happy as you are on this picture?'' she demanded, showing him the picture.
''No... But that's because I'm with my family, but soon you'll be my family so I'll be happy.'' he assured her.
''How can you be sure?'' she sighed.
''Because I love you.'' he said, taking her hand in his.
''But you don't love this house, you don't love the people here, you don't love Tree Hill. When we get married we said we're staying here, in this house, with the people here.'' she said, her eyes starting to water.
''Hey, I like it here, I'm sure I'll grow to love it... when we start our family here. When we get jobs and make friends.'' he smiled, hoping she would too. Whe she didn't he sighed. ''Quinn... everyone is coming here to see us get married, all of our families together, we can't bring them down because you're having doubts. They'll go away once were married, I promise.'' he assured her with a kiss. ''I'm going for a shower.'' he got up and walked out of the room.
David was right, she can't make everyone sad. They're all excited for the wedding, she can't bring them down just because she's not. That's unfair. So she'll do it, she'll get married. She'll just have to risk it and hope he'll grow to love Tree Hill like she does, like Clay does.
Flashback over-
''How does he know he's going to be happy here?'' Clay asked angry, he can't believe after a few sweet words she's still going to marry him. She's obviously still got doubts, she's just going to get hurt.
''He said he will, I'll just have to take his word for it.'' she shrugged.
''His word? His word means nothing!'' he shouted. ''He doesn't know how he's going to feel, niether do you. If you loved him enough you wouldn't be in doubt like this..'' he told her honestly.
''What's that supposed to mean?'' she snapped standing up.
He stood up too, ''Come on Quinn, you don't love him enough, but you care about him. That's why you're doing this.. he's giving up everything for you, if you break it off now you're going to hurt him even more. Because you don't like hurting people, but you're hurting yourself, you're hurting Haley! She doesn't like seeing you like this, she just wants you to be happy, and that's not with him.'' he shouted back. ''You're hurting me to.'' he whispered.
''Why would that hurt you?'' she asked softly with a hint of annoyance.
''Because I care about you Quinn, I know I just met you but all this doubt you're carrying around is hurting you.'' he admitted, looking down at the floor.
''How can you care about me? You don't even know me.'' she said, her voice hoarse from shouting.
''I know, but from what I've seen and what Haley's told me... you're to great to get hurt. You don't deserve to be scared incase things don't work.''
''I've bought my dress, we've set the date, we've sent the invites, my families flying in from different parts of America. I can't turn back now.'' she said, tears now streaming down her face.
''So you're going to risk your happiness because people would have to change there plans?'' he asked bitterly, he just couldn't believe what she was doing.
''I can't just stop and say 'Sorry everyone, I can't marry him because he doesn't like Tree Hill!' it doesn't work like that Clay!'' she shouted.
''How about, 'Sorry everyone, I can't marry him because I don't love him enough, because he doesn't want the same things as I do! Because we're to completely different people and it doesn't work! Because I'm scared to death of what's going to happen if we get married, because love isn't enough!' you said all of those things Quinn, why don't you try telling him?''
''Everyone has doubts, right?'' she whispered.
''Yeah, people are scared there hair doesn't look right with a certain type of dress, or people are scared incase they love eachother to much, people get small doubts. Not ones that could make you unhappy for the rest of your life.''
Quinn walked over and hugged him, she cried into his shirt, the tears soaking all of it. ''But if he doesn't make me happy, what could?'' she said after she'd calmed down abit and stopped crying.
''Me.'' he shrugged, although he was deadly serious.
Quinn looked up at him in shock, she saw he wasn't lying, he actually liked her and thought he could atleast make her happy, if not more. She leaned her head up and kissed him. Clay was in shock, then started to kiss back.
Quinn pulled away and realised what she was doing, her engagement ring wieghed a ton right now, reminding her she's getting married. When they kissed she completely forgot about David, when she did they were in a heated kiss. Atleast she pulled back before it got any futher.
''This was a mistake.'' she said stepping further back from him.
''Quinn.'' he started moving closer. He needed her to understand that he could make her happy, he knew he could. After what she told him about what she wanted out of her and David's relationship he realised he wants that, and he wants it with her.
''Just go Clay.'' she sighed, putting her head in her hands.
''Quinn.'' he tried again.
''Just get out!'' she screamed pointing to the door. Clay sighed and walked out the door, as soon as the door shut she threw herself on the couch and cried. She couldn't go to her room because someone would see her. She's surprised none of them have come to see what's happening already.
''Is that her?'' Brooke asked.
''No'' Lucas sighed.
Brooke and Lucas are at the airport. Haley asked them to go and pick up Vivian for her, the only problem is they can't remember her. They met her when they were little, but she hardly came back to Tree Hill like Quinn did, so they can't remember what she looked like.
''Just wait for her to walk to the sign Brooke.'' Lucas said, he's holding a sign saying VIVIAN JAMES on it. Atleast it's not a big banner like last time, this time its just written on a piece of paper.
''Brooke and Lucas?'' A woman asked approaching them.
''Yeah, are you Vivian?'' Lucas asked.
''Yeah, nice to meet you.'' she said, shaking there hands.
''Is it just you coming?'' Brooke asked. Haley told her Vivian has a husband and two kids, Brooke thought she would have brought them to her sisters wedding.
''Yeah, the kids are sick and John is taking care of them.'' Vivian said as they started walking towards the exit. ''Who else is at home?''
''Taylor came home last night, and Nathan called me this morning saying all of your brothers are here.'' Lucas said laughing, Nathan told him what happened with her brothers this morning, Lucas laughs everytime he hears it.
''Nathan?'' she asked as they climbed into the car.
''Haleys boyfriend.'' Brooke said, fastening her seatbelt.
''I thought her boyfriend was called Jake?'' she asked confused. As soon as Mike met Jake he called all the siblings telling them about Haley's first boyfriend, and that he doesn't like him.
''No they broke up...'' Then Brooke started telling her the whole 'Jaley into Naley' story. She just finished the story when they pulled up at the house. Vivian was a bit shocked, her sisters only 17 and she's already gone through all that relationship drama. Vivian already liked Nathan before she met him. Brooke did say he was a 'hotty', which received a glare from Lucas.
Taylor walked down the stairs and saw Haley sat on the sofa with Nathan, on the other sofa sat Jake and a curly haired girl, Taylor figured that was his girlfriend who Haley told her about, Peyton.
She skipped over to the sofa and kissed Jake on the cheek, causing him to jump. ''Hey Jakey.'' she grinned at him then sat on the arm rest, ignoring the glares from Haley and Peyton.
''Taylor? Hi.'' he said surprised, the last time he saw her she was stripping infront of him offering to sleep with him. Which he refused to do, he cared about Haley to much. He still does, just not in the same way anymore. He was never going to do that to Peyton, he just hopes Taylor doesn't do that again. ''This is my girlfriend, Peyton.'' he said gesturing to Peyton who was sat next to him.
Taylor fakes yawned, ignoring Jakes introduction. ''I'm sleepy, you wanna come to bed Jake?'' she winked at him.
Jake was shocked, sure Taylor was forward but Haley almost killed her last time. He thought she would back off by now, especially with his angry girlfriend sat next to him. Oh crap, she's angry.
''No. He doesn't'' Peyton said standing up. Nathan laughed, he felt bad for Taylor now, she's just got Peyton angry, that's like messing with Shrek... god he loved Shrek, especially Shrek 2.
Taylor stood up to, ''How do you know, huh?'' she said smirking.
''Because I don't want to.'' Jake said from the couch, to scared to stand up.
''You see that skank, he doesn't want to.'' Peyton was the one to smirk this time. Haley started laughing, she was glad she wasn't the only one who was sick of Taylor. Nathan just looked at his girlfriend like she was crazy, she was a little.
''We'll see about that.'' Taylor smirked, it was quickly wiped off when Peyton smacked her across her cheek. Haley's laughs were replaced by a gasp, Nathan laughed this time, making sure Taylor didn't hear.
Taylor screamed and grabbed Peyton by her hair, Peyton started scratching her arms to try and get her arms off. Before they could do anymore Jake pulled Peyton back and Nathan grabbed Taylors arms to stop her from grabbing Peyton's hair again. Just as Vivian, Brooke and Lucas walked through the door.
''Taylor! You've been here a day and you've already gotten into a fight!'' Vivian shouted as stormed further into the room and Nathan let go of Taylor arms like they'd suddenly became hot.
''But-''
''No buts! Go upstairs!'' she ordered, pointing to the stairs. Taylor sighed and glared at Peyton before heading upstairs. Vivian following angry behind.
When they reached the top of the stairs, the teenagers all laughed. ''You gotta love Viv.'' Haley said wiping her eye.
Haley, Brooke, Peyton, Quinn, Vivian and Taylor are all in Quinns room. It's Quinn's bachelorette party tonight, but she can't stop thinking about Clay and that kiss. It was unline any kiss she'd had before, better than anyone she'd shared with David. The guy she's marrying tomorrow. She's not spoke to Clay since, she didn't even tell Haley. Haley is a bit sad that Clay hasn't been coming 'round as much. What Quinn doesn't know is that Haley and Brooke organised a joint bachelorette/bachelor party at TRIC. Nathan invited Clay, so she'll get to see him tonight.
''Ready girls?'' Taylor asked.
''Ready.'' they confirmed and headed out of the door.
You like the kiss? Let me know:)
So will she marry David? or not? What do you want to happen? Its up to you, send me some ideas if you like, im still undecided and i love to hear your ideas.
The next chapter will be the bachelorette/bachelor party:)
