Sorry for the delay. Life has been sooo crazy. And it's only getting crazier. I won't be able to update as much but I'm going to try because I love this story (except I'm not really happy with this chapter but oh well..) enjoy!
"What if they hate me?"
"They won't."
"How do you know?"
"Because, I love you, and it doesn't matter what they think."
To say Haley was freaking out, was an understatement. Today, she was on her way to Charlotte with Nathan to meet his parents. They slept in his apartment last night, and gathered the things he would need to bring back to Tree Hill, and today they were visiting his parents.
"I love you too." Haley smiled and took her hand in Nathan's as she starred out the passenger window.
"You have nothing to worry about babe. I promise you." Nathan reassured her as he turned the steering wheel left, and drove down his old street that he grew up on.
"Holy crap, Nathan! These houses are huge!" Haley exclaimed as her jaw dropped, as she took in the mansions lined up on the road.
Nathan chuckled, "Yeah, leave it to my parent's, they always had to have the best of everything."
"Nathan!" Haley shrieked. "You're making me more nervous!"
"Don't be nervous. Just be yourself. That's what made me fall for you." Nathan smiled.
Haley bit on her lip, as Nathan pulled his black range rover into the long circular drive way of the Scott household.
"You grew up here?" Haley asked.
"Yeah."
"Wow. It's beautiful." Haley gawked.
Nathan shrugged, "It wasn't really a home, it was just a house. You know what I mean?"
"No." Haley laughed, "Not really."
Nathan parked the car and turned to look at Haley. "My family isn't like yours. The only thing my dad cares about is himself, money, and basketball. There was hardly any time for fun, or love." He explained.
Haley ran her hand across his cheek, "I'm sorry."
"It's okay. I have you now." Nathan smiled. "You're fun, and lovable."
"Oh my god, you're so cheesy!" Haley giggled.
"I thought you said we're a cheesy couple." Nathan smirked.
Haley playfully rolled her eyes, and Nathan hopped out of his seat, and ran over to the passenger side to open the car for Haley.
"You ready?" He asked as he looked longingly in her eyes.
Haley inhaled sharply, and took Nathan's hand in hers. "I guess so."
Together, they walked up to the front door, hand in hand. Nathan knocked lightly on the door, and turned to face Haley as he saw her fidgeting in the corner of his eye.
"Hey." He whispered, and brought his thumb under her chin and turned her face to face his. "Listen to me, everything will be fine, okay? They're going to love you. You're the first girl I've ever brought home, so it's not like they can compare you to anyone-"
"What?" Haley's eyes widened, "Oh my god, now I have to much pressure to be the perfect girlfriend-"
"You already are, you don't even have to try." Nathan smiled sweetly and knelt down as he captured Haley's lips in a passionate kiss.
Haley smiled against his lips, and eagerly kissed him back, until she heard a door open up.
"Nathan!" She heard someone say, and Haley practically jumped away from him.
Nathan turned around at the sound of his name and smiled. "Hi, Mom!"
Haley blushed a crimson red as she watched Nathan embrace a short blonde woman.
"Oh hunny, I missed you!" Deb cried, and hugged her son tightly. Nathan felt a slight twang of embarrassment as his mother hugged him in front of his girlfriend.
"I missed you too." Nathan said quietly, and then cleared his throat loudly as he pulled away from the hug and looked towards Haley.
"And who is this beautiful girl?" Deb asked, eyeing Haley.
"Mom, this is my girlfriend, Haley James. Hales, this is my mom." Nathan said introducing the two women.
"It's a pleasure to meet you Mrs. Scott." Haley said as she stuck her hand out for Deb to shake it.
"Oh please, call me Deb." Deb smiled as she politely shook Haley's hand. "I've heard so much about you!" Deb said to Haley. "She's even prettier in person, Nate." Deb smiled at her son.
Nathan gave Haley a shy smile, and he grabbed her hand and followed Deb inside the large house.
"Your house is beautiful, Mrs. Scott." Haley complimented.
Deb laughed lightly, "Oh thank you, but please, call me Deb."
"Right. Sorry." Haley smiled shyly and followed Deb into the kitchen.
"Nathan! What a surprise." Nathan's father, Dan Scott said as he got up from his spot at the kitchen counter, and pulled his son in for a brief hug. "And who is this?" Dan smirked as he eyed Haley from head to toe, making her a bit uncomfortable. She pulled her cranberry sun dress, down a little bit, feeling a bit self conscious.
Nathan smiled, and pulled Haley in for a sideways hug. "This is my girlfriend, Haley James."
"Girlfriend?" Dan asked as he quirked an eyebrow. "That's new."
Nathan smiled tightly, "Actually, she's Lucas's best friend. I've known her since I was eighteen."
"Wait, she's not the girl who you met on vacation, was it?" Dan asked slightly annoyed.
Haley bit her lip, and Nathan pulled her next to him tighter. "She is."
Dan glared at Haley, "Do you know what she did to your game when she left you? Coach K benched you for four games because you played like shit!" He lectured.
Nathan rolled his eyes, "It didn't matter dad, I was a freshman-"
"It does matter! You should have been playing, and making a name for yourself, but instead, you didn't listen me, you fall in love, she breaks your heart, and it ruined your basketball game-"
Nathan rolled his eyes, "Chill dad, it didn't effect me at all. I made it to the NBA, alright?"
"I don't care, she's just going to break your heart again, and it's going to screw you up even more. You can't afford this. It's your career-" Dam shouted.
"First of all, 'she' has a name, and it's Haley. And secondly, I don't really care what you think Dad, because I love her."
Dan snickered, "Love. Yeah right. She's only with you because of the money-"
Haley couldn't take it anymore, so she finally spoke up. "With all do respect, Mr. Scott, I love Nathan more than anything in the world. I'm not with him for the money, or publicity, or anything like that. I'm with him because I love him. He is an amazing guy, and I don't care that he's in the NBA, I would love him even if he was a garbage man. Nathan treats me with respect, and he has such a big heart, and I want to be with him because he makes me happy. I was stupid to let him go when I was 18, but I realized that I couldn't live with out him, and now I'm going to hold on to him."
Nathan was blown away by her speech, and he quickly swooped down to kiss her lightly. "I love you." He whispered against her lips.
"I love you too." She smiled.
"Aw! How cute!" Dan muttered sarcastically, "Let me throw up, now."
"Dan Scott!" Deb scolded, "Leave them alone. I think they're adorable! Your son is finally happy, give him a break!"
Dan rolled his eyes, "Whatever, I'm just trying to warn the guy. He's in his prime condition right now, and he better not throw it all away for some girl-"
"Haley's not some girl!" Nathan argued.
Haley looked down at her feet, and bit hard on her lip. She wished that the ground would open up and swallow her whole.
"Don't say I didn't warn you." Dan spat. "It's only a matter of time that your precious Holly will break your heart, and you'll be a washed up NBA player who lost everything over a girl."
Nathan rolled his eyes, "You're just mad because I found something other than basketball that makes me happy. Well too bad, Dan, because I love HALEY, and I'm not letting go of her."
"Yeah, and what's going to happen when you break up?" Dan retorted.
"What's going to happen if we don't break up?" Nathan fired back.
"Oh please, don't be silly." Dan chuckled evilly. "I'm sure you'll get sick of her, and move on to the next wanna-be actress or model."
Nathan rolled his eyes again, "Actually Haley's not like that. She's a teacher."
"Oh really?" Deb asked, trying to ease the tension in the air. "What grade do you teach?" She asked Haley.
"Tenth grade English." She said quietly.
"Oh that's great! You know, Nathan failed English once." Deb laughed.
"Mom..." Nathan whined.
Haley turned to Nathan and smiled, "Oh, I know all about that."
"You do?" Nathan asked.
Haley nodded, "Yeah, you told me when we were 17."
"Oh yeah. I forgot about that." Nathan smiled.
"I'd hate to break up this little love fest, but I'm going to watch the Yankee game. Feel free to join me Nate, and maybe I can knock some sense into you. Trust me, you're better off single-"
"Dan!" Deb scolded, "Nathan has finally brought home a nice, sweet girl, and you're ruining it with comments like that!"
"You see, this is why I never brought any one home before. I'm finally happy, and Dad's acting like a prick! I love Haley, and I was really excited for you to meet her-"
"We are excited too, Nathan. You're Dad's just in shock-" Deb explained.
"You know what Nathan, I think I'm going to go..." Haley said quietly, and started to walk toward the front door, but Nathan chased after her and followed her outside.
"Baby, wait!" Nathan shouted, but Haley kept walking down the block.
"Hales!" Nathan tried again.
Haley felt the the tears rolling down her cheeks as she jogged up the sidewalk and away from Nathan.
Nathan sighed and sprinted up to Haley, who was at the end of the corner. He quickly grabbed her hand and spun her around.
"I think you're forgetting I'm in the NBA." Nathan smirked.
Haley playfully rolled her eyes though her tears and laughed softly.
"Why are you crying?" Nathan asked as he pulled her in for a tight hug.
Haley rested her head against Nathan's shoulder and cried against his light blue polo.
"Your parent's hate me." She sobbed.
Nathan rubbed slow, soothing circles against her back, and kissed the crown of her head.
"That's not true, my mom loves you."
Haley sighed, "Yeah but your dad hates me."
"He doesn't, he's just... he's like that with everyone." Nathan tried to explain.
Haley pulled away and looked at Nathan with teary eyes, "He doesn't want us together."
"Screw what he thinks. He's an ass."
"Nathan he's your dad-"
"I don't care. I love you, and that's all that matters. I really could care less what anyone else thinks."
"I love you." Haley said breathlessly and placed a hard, tantalizing kiss on Nathan's soft lips.
"I love you too." Nathan smiled as he reluctantly pulled away.
"I don't think I'm ready to go back just yet." Haley revealed.
"Neither am I." Nathan sighed. "C'mon, let's go for a walk." He said as he grabbed her hand, and they walked aimlessly around the community.
"This house is so pretty!" Haley gushed as she and Nathan strolled along the sidewalk.
"It is." Nathan agreed.
"Ohh I like this one too!" Haley smiled up at the quaint yellow house, with a wrap around porch, and a picket fence.
"It's too small." Nathan replied.
"I think it's cute."
"Maybe one day we can build our dream house together." Nathan said softly.
Haley stopped walking and looked up into Nathan's crystal blue eyes.
"I'm sorry, I'm not trying to scare you..." Nathan rushed out. "I know it's too soon to be thinking about things like that but I just can't help it. I know we have a future together-"
Haley instantly cut Nathan off when her lips started to attack his. Nathan happily obliged and parted his lips so that her tongue could enter. The couple stood on the sidewalk in a heated make out session, and they didn't even feel the little droplets of rain start to fall from the sky. Suddenly, thunder roared through the sky, and Haley jumped out of Nathan's embrace.
"Oh my god! That scared me!" She screamed as she put her hand over her rapidly beating heart.
Nathan chuckled, and grabbed her hand. "C'mon, you goof, it's starting to rain. Let's get back!"
"I'm kind of starting to like the rain." Haley smiled seductively.
Nathan smirked, "Oh yeah?"
Haley flirtatiously licked her lips, "Mhmmm." She nodded.
The rain started to fall harder, and Nathan started to chase after Haley who was skipping away from him.
"Come back here, nerd!" Nathan joked.
Haley turned around and playfully glared at Nathan, "You did not just call me a nerd."
"So what if I did?" Nathan shot back flirtatiously.
"You are so dead!" Haley giggled, and jumped onto Nathan's back. She wrapped her arms around his neck, and swung her legs around his waist. It was now pouring, and they were completely saturated, but neither seemed to care.
After about five minutes, Nathan finally made it back home, and knocked loudly on the door.
Deb swiftly swung open the door and her jaw dropped.
"What the hell are you doing? There's a really bad storm!" She scolded lightly. "Get in here, I'll go get you towels."
Haley blushed. She felt like she was a teenager getting caught being out late with her boyfriend.
Nathan eyed Haley and smirked. Her dress clung to her tightly, and her hair was soaking wet. He came up from behind her and pulled her against his firm, wet body. "You're so sexy." He whispered in her ear, and she felt an involuntary shiver run down her back. He started kissing her neck, but she quickly pulled away.
"Not now babe. We're in your parents house!" Haley scolded.
Nathan chuckled and continued to kiss her neck as he but lightly at the spot underneath her ear.
Just then, Deb returned with two bath towels and cleared her throat slightly.
Haley jumped back and blushed profusely. This was the second time Nathan's mom caught them kissing. It wasn't that big of a deal considering they were almost 24, but she was still embarrassed.
"Here, you can use these to dry off and then I will put your clothes in the dryer for you." Deb explained.
"Hales, you can change into some of my old clothes if you want." Nathan said to Haley.
Deb looked out the window, where the wind was starting to pick up speed and thrash around the trees. The rain was pounding furiously against the windows and lightning lit up the sky.
"It's getting really bad out. You two better stay the night." Deb said in a concerned voice.
"Oh I don't want to impose..." Haley replied.
"Nonsense!" Deb exclaimed, "you can sleep in Nathan's old room, and Nate you can get the couch."
"Mom..." Nathan whined.
"Oh I can sleep on the couch it's no big deal." Haley intervened.
"Or we can sleep in my bed together." Nathan offered with a slight smirk.
"Not under my roof." Deb said sternly.
"Mom! I'm 23 years old. Haley and I sleep tog-"
"Nathan!" Haley scolded, "just listen to your mom."
"Fine." Nathan huffed.
Deb smiled at Haley, "wow, you're good. He never listens to me like that. I should take notes. You got him wrapped around your finger."
Haley blushed and Nathan let out a low groan.
"C'mon Hales, lets go up to my room. I'll give you some clothes to change in to." Nathan said and gently grabbed her small hand and dragged her up stairs to his childhood bedroom.
Haley looked around the navy blue room with basketball posters and smiled.
"This is nice." She said softly.
Nathan smiled and handed her his old grey duke t-shirt and black shorts.
"Babe this is going to be huge on me." Haley giggled, and Nathan smiled.
"Just roll the shorts, and trust me, you'll look beautiful. You always do." He said honestly.
Haley's heart melted at the words, and she pressed a light kiss on his cheek.
"Okay, thank you for letting me borrow them. You're the best."
"You can keep them. I know how much you love wearing my clothes. I'm starting to get a little worried actually. Are you sure you're not like turning into a guy?" Nathan joked.
Haley rolled her eyes, "Ha, ha." She deadpanned, "I just love wearing your clothes, because it smells like you, and they're comfortable." Haley gushed. "But no, I'm definitely not turning into a guy."
"I think I should check to make sure." Nathan smirked.
"Nathan!" Haley chastised as she felt her cheeks burning.
Nathan smirked and rested his hands against her hips. "Here, let me help you get out of this dress."
"Babe, no." Haley tried to say firmly, but her voice cracked.
"Why not?" Nathan whispered as he slowly unzipped her wet dress.
"I- we- your parents-"
"I'm just helping you get changed. There's nothing wrong with that." Nathan said feigning innocence.
Haley relented, and let Nathan help her out of her dress. She stood in front of him in a simple red lacy bra, and matching underwear.
Nathan felt his mouth go dry at the sight. "You are so sexy-" Nathan began but Haley quickly turned around.
He quickly came up behind her and wrapped his arms around her torso and kissed her neck.
"I love you." He whispered.
"Nathan-" She tried to protest but it came out more of a moan.
"Do you love me?" He asked into her collarbone.
"You know I do, but seriously baby you need to stop."
"Why?" Nathan mumbled.
Haley tried to muster enough strength and turn away from Nathan but she couldn't. She loved the feel of his warm breath on her neck.
"Be-because, you're going to start something, that, w-we can't finish." Haley stuttered breathlessly.
Nathan reluctantly pulled away, and spun Haley around to give her a passionate kiss on her lips. He then rested his forehead against hers and smiled.
"Okay, but just so you know, we're finishing this later." Nathan smirked. "And just so you know... You're definitely not a guy."
Haley playfully rolled her eyes and slid on Nathan's old duke t-shirt. It was a little big on her so she tied the hem with a rubber band. She then put on Nathan's old pair of black shorts, and rolled the top a few times so they would fit her better.
"I was right. You do look good in my clothes." Nathan smiled.
Haley placed a sweet kiss on his lips but pulled away when she heard Deb calling them downstairs for dinner.
"Are you coming?" Haley asked from the doorway.
Nathan swallowed the lump in his throat.
"Uh give me a minute. I need to get changed and cool down a bit, if you know what I mean..."
Haley let out a loud laugh, "okay." She replied and quickly made her way down to the kitchen.
"Do you need any help setting the table?" Haley asked kindly.
"Oh no thank you Haley, everything is pretty much done. Where's Nate?"
Haley felt her cheeks warm, "he's just finishing getting changed."
"Okay well you can have a seat at the table. Do you like prime rib?"
Haley smiled. She knew it was Nathan's favorite. "Yes, thank you." She responded sweetly and then took a seat at the dining room table, anxiously waiting for Nathan to return.
"Oh you're still here?" Dan grunted as he walked into the dining room and sat at the head of the table.
Haley bit down on her lower lip and nodded.
"Don't get too comfortable. I'm sure Nathan will break up with you soon."
Dan smirked.
Haley took a deep breath, and looked at Dan in the eyes. "Mr. Scott I really love Nathan, and I promise you I won't hurt him. I just really want you to be okay with the fact I'm dating your son. Is there anything I can do to change your mind?"
Dan took a swig of his beer and looked at Haley. "Yeah. Break up with him."
Haley's jaw dropped. "Are you serious?"
"Look, holly- my son is going to make it really big in the NBA, and he doesn't need some wanna-be slut attatched to him. So do us all a favor and break up with him."
Haley pursed her lips together and glared at Dan. "I'm sorry but I love Nathan and I'm going to support him and his career one hundred percent, and if you have a problem with that, then frankly I don't really care."
"You're fiesty, I'll give you that." Dan said smugly.
"Dan, what are you doing to this poor girl? Leave her alone!" Deb scolded as she carried a bowl of salad to the table.
Just then Nathan came down the stairs wearing a simple white t-shirt, and navy blue shorts, his hair was still a little damp, and Haley couldn't look away. He was completely gorgeous, even in the simplest of attires.
"What's going on?" Nathan asked, feelings the thick tension in the air.
"I was just wondering what you even see in Hades." Dan said with a cunning smile.
Nathan narrowed his eyes at his father, and walked over to where Haley was sitting and he wrapped his arms around her. "You know what Dad? I'm sick and tired of you picking my girlfriend apart. I love her, and she makes me happy. Why can't you accept that?"
"I'm just trying to save you the heartbreak son. Forgive me for caring about you." Dan replied with an 'innocent' voice.
Nathan rolled his eyes, "Yeah well if you really cared about me, you would make an effort to get to know Haley, because I care about her more than anyone.
Haley simply starred at her p[late in front of her and tried her best not to say anything she would regret.
"Boys, stop it. Let's enjoy a nice dinner. Nathan, I just wanted to say I'm very happy for you, and I adore Haley. You two are very cute together, and I don't know how Nathan was able to snag such an amazing woman, but I'm happy he did." Deb said with a graceful smile. "Cheers!"
Everyone but Dan clinked their wine glasses together, and Nathan took a seat across from Haley.
"So how did you get back together?" Deb asked as she looked at a smiling Haley.
"Well I went down to Tree Hill for Lucas and Brooke's wedding, and Haley was the maid of honor, and I was the best man, and after many fights and convincing, Haley and I agreed to give us a second chance and it was the best decision I have ever made," Nathan said proudly, and Dan visibly rolled his eyes.
"I almost lost him again though." Haley frowned. "I had to go to airport and stop him."
"Yeah and when she got there, she thought I left but I actually got off the plane, and she ran into my arms." Nathan finished.
"It was so romantic." Haley gushed.
"Gag me." Dan mumbled under his breath.
Deb rolled her eyes at her husband. "Forgive my rude husband," She said kindly, "I happen to think that your story is very sweet. I haven't seen Nathan this happy in years!"
Haley smiled and reached across the table to take Nathan's hand in hers. "Your son means the world to me." She gushed.
"Haley's the best thing that has ever happened to me." Nathan smirked.
"What about when you got drafted to the NBA?" Dan asked.
"Getting Haley back tops everything." Nathan replied.
"I didn't know my son turned into a pansy." Dan muttered.
"Dan!" Deb scolded.
"Whatever Dad, I'm not listening to you anymore." Nathan bit back.
"Nathan, I am trying to give you advice! I'm telling you to dump her. That way when you get drafted to an even bigger team, you'll have thousands of women throwing themselves at you, and you won't have to worry about her."
Nathan sighed angrily. "First of all, I'm not going to be stupid and throw away my dream girl. Second of all, who says I'm getting drafted?"
"Your contract is up this year. The Lakers and the Knicks are fighting over you. Your number three in the entire nation. The Bobcats were a good start, but lets face it- you need to be on a bigger and better team." Dan said strongly.
"Last time I checked you weren't my agent." Nathan snarled.
"I'm serious Nathan. The Lakers want you. You'd be a fool if you pass that up." Dan said.
"Well I don't care because I'm staying in Charlotte." Nathan said stubbornly.
At Nathan's confession, Haley's head shot up and she starred into his eyes. "Are you serious?" Haley asked.
"Of course Baby. I promised you I'm staying with you, and being in Charlotte is the closest I'll get." Nathan smiled.
"Nathan." Haley said breathlessly. "You don't have to do that-"
"Listen to her Nate. You don't have to do it." Dan smirked.
"I'd follow you wherever you go Nathan." Haley confessed.
"Your job, and friends, and family are all in Tree Hill. I can't make you leave." Nathan frowned.
"I will for you Nathan." Haley confirmed.
"You're not pregnant are you?" Dan asked Haley.
"Dad!" Nathan scolded. "Are you kidding me right now?"
"What? I don't know."
"No Mr. Scott, I am certainly not pregnant. I just love your son so much that I'm willing to sacrifice a few things for him." Haley explained.
"I think that's sweet." Deb gushed. "You better hold on to her Nate. She's perfect."
"I know." Nathan smiled cheekily.
"Really? If she was perfect, she wouldn't have left you five years ago." Dan snorted.
"Enough Dad!" Nathan shouted. "Haley and I were just kids back then. It's different now, and I want to be with her. What we have is real, and I don't give a shit what anyone says!"
Haley took a deep breath, and took a long sip of water. "Excuse me, I'm going to use the bathroom." She quickly got up and made a run for the bathroom. She had enough of Dan's cruel words.
"Dad!" Nathan whined. "Look what you did! Now she's upset!"
"Good." Dan said smugly. "I don't like her. She seems like a bitch. You can do better."
Nathan's eyes narrowed. "No actually I can't, because she's the best. Even if I could get someone else, I wouldn't want to. I love her, and I'd do anything for her. I really don't care what you think, because one day I'm going to marry her."
Dan just snickered.
"Why the hell are you laughing?" Nathan asked angrily.
"You actually think you're going to get married?"
"Yeah I am, and we're also going to have kids."
Dan laughed even harder, and began choking on his meal.
"I'm really glad you think this is funny." Nathan said sarcastically. "I really thought you would love 's amazing. She's beautiful, intelligent, funny, and just the perfect girl to bring home-"
"Honey, I love her! I'm so happy you brought her and not some skank-" Deb interjected.
Dan rolled his eyes, "She is a skank. I bet she's only with Nathan for his money and in a few months she'll probably cheat on him with a musician or something."
"Haley isn't a skank! She's classy and sophisticated, and beautiful. I don't know how you can't see it." Nathan defended her.
"Oh please! She has the body of a slutt. Did you see her ass-?" Dan muttered.
Nathan couldn't take it any longer so he lunged across the table and punched his father straight in the eye.
"Don't talk about my girlfriend like that!" Nathan shouted.
Haley was walking back in the kitchen to witness the uproar, and she ran upstairs into Nathan's room and broke down into a fit of sobs on his bed. She didn't know why Dan didn't like her but she was really upset because she wanted him to like her.
Nathan heard Haley run up the stairs, so he turned around and quickly followed her. He then stopped on the stairs and looked at his father who was covering his eye. Deb ran to the kitchen to get ice, and Dan just sat there in shock.
"I happen to love Haley's ass." Nathan shouted at Dan, and ran up to his room.
"Babe are you in here?" Nathan asked as he knocked on the door.
"Go away." Haley mumbled into the pillow and continued to cry.
Nathan ignored her protest and walked straight into the room, and sat on the bed as he rubbed soothing circles on her back.
"Your dad hates me." Haley cried.
Nathan let out a tired sigh and curled up next to Haley on the bed, and he held her in his arms. "He's an ass."
"I don't want him to hate me though." She cried louder.
Nathan placed a lingering kiss on her forehead and hugged her tighter. "It'll take some time, but he'll warm up to you."
"What if he doesn't?" Haley sniffled.
"Well then that's too bad because you're not going anywhere, so he's going to have to get used to the idea of you being around." Nathan said softly.
"Really?" Haley asked as she looked into his warm blue eyes.
Nathan smiled, "Yes, really. Tomorrow, I'm going to make him apologize, okay?"
"Okay." Haley smiled and kissed Nathan softly. "I love you." She whimpered against his chest.
"I love you too."
I hate the way I ended this chapter but I'm in a rush to post. I literally have no time for anything anymore. I have two jobs, plus I'm on a tennis league, and school is starting soon so that means I won't be able to update as much but this story is almost over. I'd say there will be another 5 or 6 but who knows? I have no idea where I'm going with this story, it's completely random but I do know the epilogue and I must say, it's going to be freaking perfect :)
