Fall

chapter: four

"Tutor girl, where the hell where you Friday night? I texted you and wanted to go shopping. You didn't reply so I went to your house and your mom said you were at Peyton's. So I went to Peyton's and guess who wasn't there. You. Where the hell did you go?"

Haley sighed and stopped in front of her locker to get her books. "I was on a date."

"Haley. Why didn't you tell me? Who is the lucky guy?"

"Brooke not here. I will tell you when there isn't so many people."

Then Nathan walks by and Brooke notices Haley look at him then smile.

"Oh my god. It's him. Wasn't it?"

"Brooke I said not here."

"You did go on a date with him. Ohh Haley James is a bad girl. You need to tell me the details. Ohhhh I bet he is a good kisser."

Haley laughed and shook her head. I'll tell you later Tigger."


Haley waited till her free period to go see Nathan. She knew there wasnt a gym class or anything so she snuck into the boys locker room. She made sure there was no boys from the last gym class. Haley knocked on Nathan's office door and she saw him smile and motioned for her to come in.

"Hey. Are you busy?" Haley asked.

"No. Just going over plays for practice tonight. What's up?" Nathan looked up from the play book.

"So Brooke found out. But I know she won't tell anyone. She wouldn't Do that to me."

" Damn it. This is gonna be harder than we thought."

"No Nathan it's only Brooke an Peyton. We will only have trouble if anyone else finds out. Which we aren't gonna have happen. We will just hang out at your house for awhile. No biggy."

"Alright. Come over after practice tonight and I will cook you dinner. Well my aunt will and I will hear it up."

Haley giggled and leaned in. "Okay. See you at 7." She kissed him and got up and left. When she left she had so many butterflies in her stomach. Just the simplest touch from Nathan made her week in the knees.


"Haley James get your ass over here. Me and P. Sawyer need to talk to you."

Haley rolled her eyes and walked over to Peyton and Brooke. "What? I was stretching."

Peyton spoke up. "When in the world are you gonna tell us about your date Friday night with hot shot?" She nodded her head towards Nathan.

Haley laughed really loud and all the girls looked at her. "How about when there isn't a whole squad of cheerleaders who like to gossip, around. I promise tomorrow after school we will hang out and I will tell you everything. Now lets start practice."

Brooke, Peyton, and Haley worked the girls hard this practice. And Rachel just kept complaining. Finally Haley couldn't take it. After they finished going over their dance Haley walked up to her and started yelling "Listen Rachel, every other girl here has worked their ass off to be where they are. So if you don't shut up and suck it up your off this team and I will call another girl." Haley walked back up beside Peyton and Brooke. "Take it from the top girls."

Everyone in the gym stopped what they were doing and watched what happened. Nathan was smiling because his girl was hot when she told people off. He got the boys to continue practice. He noticed the guys making sexual comments toward Haley after she told Rachel off. He didn't like people talking to his girl like that.


Haley pulled up to Nathan's house and noticed that he was sitting on the porch. She smiled an got out of the car and walked up the stairs. "Hey I thought you wear heating up dinner."

"I need to blow off some steam so I thought we could take a walk on the beach. Not many people take a walk or are on the beach this time of year."

"Alright. But what's wrong? Why do you need to blow off steam?"

"Hales I heard the comments the guys were making towards you during practice. Next time stand up for yourself."

Haley laughed for like 2 minutes. "Nathan... They say stuff like that all the time. They just joke around. Plus they don't have a chance. They try to hard. Now c'mon I still want to go on that walk."

Nathan nodded and stood up. He grabbed Haley's hand and they walked off the back steps and down into the walked for about 30 minutes. They saw a group of kids around a fire but didnt worry about it till they got closer and realized they were guys from school. "Shit. Nathan those are guys from school."

"We got this Hales. Just put your hood up and turn towards me more. They won't know." They finally were walking past the group and they hope they would notice but they did. "Hey coach Scott. Whose your lady friend?"

"Hey guys and this is Jessica. She's shy." Haley waved but she didnt turn around. She heard another guy say something but she couldn't make out what he said she just knew that it was Lucas. Finally Nathan and Haley turned around and walked back towards the beach house.

They got far enough away and Haley put her hood down. "Nathan that was so close. What if they would found out it was me?"

"Hales it's fine now. They had no clue. Now lets go inside its cold."

They walked up the back stairs and into the house. Nathan put the food his aunt made in the oven before they left so it was done cooking by the time they got back. "The food smells good. What did your aunt make?"

"Mac and cheese and Honey chicken."

"Seriously? Mac and cheese is the food of the gods."

"Hales, only if the gods are 5 year olds."

Haley walked over to Nathan and pushed him. "It's the best food ever."

After the eat dinner they go into the living room. Nathan dims the lights and lights two candles. Nathan sits down and pulls Haley into his lap. "Nathan what are you doing?"

"Kissing my girl. Is that a problem?"

"Of course not Nathan."

"Good." Nathan said than gave her the most earth shattering kiss. She was glad they were sitting because if not she wouldn't be able to stand. After awhile of just making out Haley slips off Nathan's lap and cuddles up next to him.

"I might cut Rachel off of the team."

"Why Hales? You can stand up for your self."

"We'll her grades suck and she has the worst attitude and I don't want to put up with is. And Since I'm captain I can decide who I want on my team."

"That's up to you. Plus I'm tired of her checking me out. I feel so uncomfortable."

"But you don't mind me checking you out?" Haley kissed Nathan then down to his neck.

"That's different. I like you. I don't like her."
