Fall

chapter: eleven

"Is he finally asleep?" Haley asked as Nathan came walking back downstairs.

"Yeah. He kept asking for his momma. I told him she went away and that I was his daddy and he was gonna live with me from now on. It's hard for him to understand becuase he is only 2, ya know? An I feel like I'm the bad guy because I'm the one telling him he isn't gonna see his mom anymore."

"Nathan royal Scott. Stop this right now. You are not the bad guy in this Erica is. She left a poor 2 year old boy who hasn't known his father for his whole life. You are a good guy Nathan and your gonna be a good father."

"Listen Hales. If you wanna call the wedding off I understand. Your only 19 you shouldn't have to deal with this. I will always love you though. Always and forever."

"Nathan I will always love you. And I'm not calling off the wedding. This wasn't planned. But we can be a happy family. I know I'm not his real mom but from the couple hours I spent with him I love him already. I picture you exactly like him when you were his age. An I hope to be his mom one day Nathan."

Nathan leaned in and captured Haley's lips in an earth shattering kiss. He couldn't wait to be her husband. She was the best thing that happened to his life. And now his sons mother shows up with their son who Nathan thought wasnt even alive, and she just drops Landon on Nathans doorstep. He is glad he has Haley to be supportive.

The kiss became heated and they leaned back so Haley was on top of Nathan. Nathan started rubbing up and down Haley's sides. She loved the way he touched her. It felt so good. Haley moved her hands down his chest an up under his shirt. She loved his toned muscles and the way he shivered when she touched them. Nathan slowly slid his hands under the back of her shirt. He moved his hands up and stopped at her bra clasp. She didnt object so he in clipped it.

Haley reached for Nathan's belt buckle and started to unbuckle it.

"Hales. Hales.. C'mon we need to stop." Nathan said.

She realized how this could have needed and she was gla that he stopped them.

"God Nathan. I'm so sorry." She smiled weakly and ran her hand through her hair.

"Hales, you have nothing to be sorry for. We just got caught up in the moment. Now I might need a cold shower right about now, but it's okay."

"I must be such a tease. I wasn't planning on stopping so I'm glad you stopped us. I just really want to be your wife first. I know that we are in love but it seems right."

"Hales I understand. Listen baby, your not a tease. Okay I like getting carried away with you. And I think your right that we should wait. But I seriously need a cold shower. I'll be back."

Haley just laughed. Nathan untangled himself from Haley and went up to get a shower. She heard the water running and decide to read a book. After Nathan being upstairs for 10 minutes she heard crying. She ran up to the room Landon was sleeping in and saw him sitting up crying. Haley ran over to him.

"I want my momma." Landon screamed through his sobbing. Haley eloped him into a hug until he couldn't cry anymore.

"Are you okay now buddy?" Haley pulled him away to look at him. He nodded his head yes.

"You be my new mommy?"

"Oh Landon. I don't know. Maybe one day. Do you wanna go see your daddy?" He once again nodded his head yes. Haley picked him up and walked to Nathan's room. She knocked so she didn't walk in on him changin. She heard a mumbled come in.

She walked in carrying a red eyed Landon. Nathan rushed over to them.

"Haley what happened? Is he okay? He didn't fall out of the bed?"

"No. Nathan calm down. I was just reading and he started crying, so I went to check on him and he wanted to see you. Ya know even though he just met you I think he knows that your his dad and you love him."

Nathan got a huge grin on his face and reached for Landon. Immediatly Landon stretche out his arms for Nathan to take him. Nathan was whispering comforting words to Ladon and was making him laugh a little. After a while they went and sat on the bed while Haley stood in the doorway watching her fiancé with hopefully soon to be son.

The sight in front of her warmed her heart. Nathan had natural father instincts and qualities. She actually thought it was quit sexy. Him with a kid looked natural. He didnt look unnatural. She then walked over to sit beside them. Nathan started moving Landon towards Haley's face and she would kiss his nose then Nathan would pull Landon away real quick making him giggle. Both Nathan and Haley thought he had the cutest little laugh.

After awhile Landon started to get tired again. They both put him to bed this time. They kissed his forehead and walked hand in hand back to Nathan's room. Nathan laid on the bed and pulled Haley into his embrace.

"Ya know. I just met Landon. But I feel like I love him so much and I have to protect him like I have known him his whole life. But I haven't. Yeah it was nice being able to live my dream for a couple of years. But I would rather have raise my son and watch him grow. It just upsets me. I mean, I know absolutely nothing about him except he looks like me. I don't know if he is allergic to anything, his medical history, his favorite food or color. Nothing."

"Nathan it's understandable. But maybe if she hadnt done what she did we wouldn't know each other. I wouldn't be getting married right out of high school. You wouldn't be coaching the ravens to win their state championship. You wouldn't have got those few good years of your dream. You have to look at every angle of it. I know you would have like to know your son but you get to now. Think if she wouldn't have gave up."
