The whole chapter is in Haley's perspective!

"I'm scared to tell Lucas about this" I confessed to Nathan as we were getting ready for bed.

"Don't be, he'll be happy for us; I know it!" he told me plainly.

"Nu-uh! He's going to lecture us about how we're too young, and that we're moving too quickly, and that this is just not right!" I said worried out of my mind.

"Hales! Relax, whatever Luke's response is I'm still marrying you and nothing can stop me, not even you" he said slyly as he pushed me to the bed and started kissing me.

"You're so cute when you're worried" he said as he continued to kiss me passionately. Slowly his hands moved over to under my oversized shirt suddenly I felt his large hands atop of my breasts.

"Nathan…" I moaned out softly.

"Do you like that baby?" he said to me in a husky tone.

"Not now, my parents will hear me…" I said not wanting his hands to escape me.

"Oh, so if your parents weren't here I could do this?" he said as he pinched on my nipples.

"MMM." I let out breathlessly.

"And maybe this?" he said as put his mouth over the fabric of my shirt so my breast and his mouth could come into contact.

"Nathan baby…" I said with more of a begging tone.

"Just tell me to stop and I will" he smiled against my neck as he continued to caress my body in the most sensual ways.

"We have to wait until we're husband and wife" I finally was able to let out in a quick breath.

He gave me a funny look, eyebrows raised high and a slight grin to his lips.

"Husband and wife, eh?" he said as he sat up in the bed.

"Yes, I've waited this long I can wait a few more months." I said with so much regret.

"Oh you can? Is my sexiness really that easy to neglect?" he said as he gave me a smile.

"Yes it is! Now don't try and tempt me!"

"Well what fun is there in not attempting to seduce my fiancée?" he said as he straddled atop of me.

"It's not fair! My virginity is not a game Nathan Scott!" I retorted as he flashed me another charming smile.

"I know it's not." He said as he kissed me right above my breast.

"Promise me you'll wait? That you respect me enough to wait it out with me?" I begged him as he sucked on the same spot.

"I promise…" he said as he looked up from the freshly formed hickey.

"Why must you always leave one…?" I said as I felt over the red imperfection.

"So everyone knows that you're mine, I like leaving love bites." He said as he laid back on his side.

"Whatever, just go to sleep and get ready to get grilled by Lucas in the morning.

"Goodnight Haley Waley"

"Night Nate the Great, I love you."

"I love you too" and he turned the light off.


"YOU'VE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME?! MARRIAGE?! How old are you two, oh yeah, SIXTEEN! Sixteen years old and you want to marry each other?!" Lucas yelled at us as expected.

I looked at Nathan to just see an amused look on his face, nothing can get him down.

"I know you just got out of the hospital from your heart condition, but you're going to be fine Nate! We don't need to resort to such irrational things."

"Wanting to marry Haley is not irrational in the least bit" Nathan retorted.

"We're so young Nate, why can't you two wait?" Lucas said worriedly as he looked over to me.

"We're in love Luke, and if you don't understand that then who have we been friends with all of these years?" Nathan said snarkily as he held me close to him.

"Luke… I know this is hard on you but please just support us" I asked him in a calm tone.

"I just can't… this is all so sudden, how could your parents allow this Hales?!" he yelled.

"Don't yell at her Luke, I know this is surprising but if you're not going to support us then we're just going to leave since we apparently can't have a civil conversation with you." Nathan said defensively.

"I'm sorry." Lucas replied trying to calm his anger.

"I want you to be my best man Luke, now you can take the offer and get over the fact that we're 'just sixteen' or you can reject the offer and our friendship as we know it is over."

Nathan's words shocked me; he was being so incredibly harsh. I know Luke was overreacting but it's only natural that he'd worry about us.

"I want Brooke to be my Maid of Honor Lucas…" I added trying to smooth over this argument.

He looked over at us and let out a frustrated sigh.

"I'm happy for you two, and even though this is absolutely ridiculous I could never lose you two" Lucas told us.

"Congrats" he said as he hugged me.

"Thanks Luke" I whispered into his ear as he hugged me tight.


"That wasn't as bad as I thought it would be" Nathan told me as we sat inside of Karen's Café.

"That bad? He was furious with us!" I exclaimed.

"Who was furious with what?" Karen asked as she brought us our sandwiches.

Me and Nathan looked over at each other and we didn't know exactly how to approach this idea with Karen. She has always been close to our families but we felt somewhat guilty for confessing this with her. It's not that we were doing anything wrong but we just felt like this would be a touchy topic with her.

"Umm. Well Haley and I are getting married…" Nathan explained.

She doing look shock like I expected.

"And who was mad?" she questioned.

"Lucas" we said in unison.

"Oh that boy, always trying to be the overprotective type, don't worry about Luke, he'll get over it in the next two hours." She laughed.

We laughed at her levity. It was refreshing not getting scolded for wanting to get married.

"I always knew that you two would get married some day." She smiled at us as she filled the dispensers of napkins.

"Really?" I smiled at the common words.

"Yes, you two were inseparable. And the way Nate here looked at you" she said as she grabbed his hand and smiled.

"He always cherished you" and Nathan was blushing at the words.

"I'm lucky to have him" I said as he rubbed his knee.

"You two are lucky to have each other"


We got back home and my parents were sitting at the kitchen table with the laptop in front of them.

"What are you guys up to?"

"We're looking for a venue for your wedding" they said not taking their eyes off of the screen.

"Aunt Lydia, Uncle Jimmy; you don't have to for through that trouble, I'll do that" Nathan said as he walked over to my parents in a rush.

"no no, this is the least we could do"

"What are you talking about? I've convinced you to let me marry your daughter, I have more to repay to you two"

"Nathan, it's really no problem. I don't want you two worrying about this wedding."

"What are you two up to?" I asked due to their sudden generosity.

"What do you mean what are we up to? We're helping you plan your wedding silly!" My mom said in a not-so-genuine tone.

"Mom…dad…" I said in a suspicious tone.

"Well Haley Bob don't be mad!" My dad said defensively.

"What is it…?"

"Me and your mom are kicking you two out of the house."

"What?! Why so suddenly? Why now?!" I asked shocked.

"well you two are about to be married! Shouldn't you get used to being in a house by themselves?"

"I'm not ready…" I said with my arms crossed.

"Babe, maybe your parents are right." Nathan agreed as he rubbed my back as we stood there.

"See, even Nate agrees."

"I was thinking we could cherish these few months together before we were married as a family but I guess that's not what you guys want" I said in a bratty tone, arms still crossed.

"Hales love, we love your petite, rank 1, dorky self, but you need to make a new life with your husband. You owe it to yourself to start caring about yourself, and Nate you better take care of our baby like you promised."

"I will" he said as he smiled at them.

"How soon do you want us gone?" I said trying to recover from the shock.

"By next week preferably."

"Fine" I said as I stomped up the stairs.

"I'll go make sure she's ok"


"Haley love?" Nathan said in a soft tone as he knocked on our bedroom door.

"I don't wanna talk about it" I whined.

"Fine, we don't have to, but let me into the room" I laughed at the comment as I unlocked the door for him.

"This is my parents dumbest idea! I cannot believe they're kicking us to the curb!" I said not able to contain my emotions.

"Well Hales, they just want us to grow up."

"But that isn't OUR home, that was your parents home"

"What's mine is yours Hales… it'll be your home too"

"I'll feel guilty Nate…"

"I know you will because you're Haley James, but my parents loved you almost more than they loved me, they always knew you'd be part of our family." He said as he hugged me tightly.

"It's all just too unreal, us planning to get married, living in a big house just us two, we're only sixteen."

"Now you're starting to sound like Lucas" he replied angrily.

"I mean Nate, we're still so young."

"Do you not want to marry me Haley? Is that what you're telling me?"

"Nate, why can't we wait a little longer? We'll be together forever I know that, so why can't we wait?"

"Well why can't forever start today?! Hales I love you with all my heart and I want you to be my wife, but I feel like you don't want me to be your husband"

"Nathan… it's not like that! Baby, you know I love you." I said as I had my hand on his cheek.

"I love you so much" I kissed his lips teasingly.

"I want to spend the rest of my life with you, I want to marry you, I want all of you" I reassured him as he carried me in his big arms.

"Are you sure?" he questioned as he kissed my nose.

"Positive, I'm sorry for worrying you."


"Well if it isn't tutor wife and tutee husband" Brooke said as she parked in the driveway of Nathan's house.

"Hi Brooke" Nathan said as he hugged her.

"I cannot believe I actually agreed to help you move in, you know, Brooke Davis does not do hard labor"

"That's why you are dating me" Lucas said as he snuck up behind Brooke.

"BOYFRIEND! Just in time, go help Nathan bring the boxes of Haley's clothes!" Brooke commanded.

"Well hello to you too pretty girl" Luke replied as he picked up a box and headed towards the house.

"So how are you doing tutor wife?"

"I am doing splendid. And can you stop calling me that?"

"I will not stop until you have a baby so I can call it tutor baby"

"You're such a weirdo Brooke Davis."

"Imagine this… did you think you'd be here moving in with your fiancée at 16?"

"Never in my life would I have predicted this… but I'm grateful. For Nathan, Luke, you, my family, everyone. I'm just so happy. The wedding is so near"

"When's the exact date again?"

"May 28."

"Why then?" she asked confused

"Ever since Nathan and I were born we would celebrate our birthdays together because we're only two days apart, so it's a special day for us" I couldn't help but smile at the explanation.

"You two are so adorable, I swear" Brooke said as we stood in the front of the house.

"Hey Brooke, I was wondering… would you mind being my maid of honor?" I asked nervously.

"Ahh, tutor girl…I'd love to, but might kill me if I accept"

"Oh…" I said with much disappointment.

"I understand, she's your best friend."

"Hales…" she said as I turned away from her.

"It's really ok, don't worry about it."

"Ugh, fine. I'LL DO IT!" she finally caved.

"Yes! Thank you so much Brooke!"


"And we're done!" Lucas said as he plopped down on the couch

"The place looks as cozy as the days they were still here" I told Nathan.

"Yeah, I guess so… my parents would love knowing you actually love me back."

I just laughed at his silly comment.

"You guys are getting married so soon, it's hard to believe, my two best friends" Lucas said as he suddenly became nostalgic and reminiscent.

"It feels like just yesterday Haley was bullying me for being scared of the dark… oh yeah that was yesterday night!" Nathan said mockingly

"Well it's not my fault you're a scaredy-cat!" I laughed.

"You two look so in love" Brooke said in a slightly jealous tone.

"Thanks for helping us move everything in guys, shall we order pizza?"

"Yes, I am starving!" Lucas exclaimed.

In that moment I saw my life flash in front of me. Filled with happiness, love, friends, and family. If this were how I spent the rest of my life I knew I'd be happy forever…
