"Where do I start with Haley and Nathan? Their story is quite beautiful actually…" Lucas started as people were eating their dinner and watching him speak.

"I met Nathan in Little League Baseball when I was 4, we became good friends quickly and after practice we'd always go to the sandbox nearby." Lucas was smiling at the memory playing back in his mind.

"NOW. If you didn't know Nate when he was younger he was extremely quiet! Right Haley?"

"Right!" she chimed in as everyone began to laugh.

"BUT, when he did talk he would go hours talking about his best friend, Haley Waley" momentarily the lively guests were 'aww-ing' at the statement.

"So we'd do the same thing every Tuesday afternoon, it became a routine really. Until finally one day I decided I wanted to meet her. But Nate here was a little apprehensive, he probably thought I would take his best friend away from him or something."

Nathan was blushing a nice shade of pink and Haley patted his cheek as she giggled at this hilarious reception speech Lucas was giving.

"The moment I laid eyes on the pretty little James girl I was hooked. I don't know why, but I liked her so much when I met her. She was a bit tough for a girl so tiny. I remember her threatening me that, and I quote, "if you ever hurt Natey I'll hurt you Lucas!"" wasn't she just lovely?" he joked as everyone listened attentively.

"Nathan Scott here ladies and gents, was trying to play cupid and get me and Haley together!" The guests went wild at the comment he made, whether remembering Lucas' crush or being surprised by the fact, they went crazy.

"I remember that!" Haley teased Nathan.

"Oh how much I'd regret that…" Nathan laughed at the ridiculous thought.

"And so this speech ends with the 14 year old Lucas getting rejected by Haley and 2 years later, here we are; me making a speech at my absolute best friends wedding reception. To Nate the Great and Haley Waley, I hope the best of luck to you. Now Nate, take care of Haley Bob for all of us." He said as he walked over to the couple and kissed Haley on the cheek and hugged Nathan.

Chatter filled the room yet again as more food was being sent out by the waiters.

"How much food did your parents get for tonight?" Nathan asked the ever-bubbly Haley.

"I'm thinking a 14 course meal?" she joked as she smiled widely at her husband.

"God, I love you." Nathan blurted as he stared at her pretty face.

She pinched his cheek playfully and suddenly the hired photographer snapped a photo of the cute moment.

"Sorry!" the nerdy looking photographer apologized.

"Oh it's no problem" Haley said sweetly as Nathan looked annoyed by the mood-ruiner.

"Hey, aren't you in my Calculus class?" Haley asked the scrawny looking kid.

"Yeah, I am" he answered shyly.

"What's your name?" Nathan asked harshly probably trying to scare the kid.

"Marvin McFadden, but you can call me Mouth"

Haley got up from the couple's table then gave Mouth a hug and took the fancy camera from him, kissing him on the cheek and snapping a picture just to annoy Nathan.

"I appreciate you coming tonight, I apologize for my husband being so rude" she laughed as she looked down at the clearly agitated Nathan.

"It's no problem, it's not often that I get opportunities of people from Tree Hill High getting married" he said as he laughed nervously because he could see Nathan eyeing him still.

"Nathan, thank Mouth for taking pictures on this special day of ours" Haley instructed the childish Nathan.

"Thanks" he said coldly.

"I'll be leaving now, it was nice meeting you two"

"Now what was all that hostility for?" she said as she playfully swatted his shoulder with her tiny hand.

"You kiss the nerd and you expect me to be happy about it?" he said as his face was filled with annoyance.

"I'm sorry ok? Can you please forgive me?" Haley said as she pouted her lips.

He tried his best to not make eye contact because he knew that once those pretty little eyes of hers locked with his he'd be like putty in her hands.

"No." he said as he turned.

She wrapped her silky smooth arms around his neck and started feeling down his chest. Resisting Haley was something he was good at, but being their wedding day and all he felt weakened by her touch.

"You really don't forgive me?" she cooed into his ear as she let her voice linger.

"I-I really don't" he said as his voice cracked. This made Haley smile.

"Hmph, well I guess I'll just be extra obedient later tonight." She said as she set her arms free.

"And what does that mean?" Nathan asked curiously as he finally turned to look at her.

She smiled a mischievous smile she saw his interest at her comment and she giggled when she saw his reaction. Slowly and teasingly she sat back in the chair next to him and gestured for him to offer an ear to what she was about to say. He dipped his head lower so his ear would be close to her lips and she said something he hadn't expect to ever hear from Haley.

"Well since we're married and I upset my cute husband just now I thought I'd be able to make it up to him after the reception…"

"Mhm." He replied as he continued to listen to her request.

"And maybe, only if you'd like, you could possibly have your way with me?" she giggled at the last sentence.

His ears practically shot up when such an offer was given by the innocent girl he had just married. He cleared his throat from the hitch that was forming by the thought and he looked over at the now-blushing Haley. She was too cute for words.

Haley once again got up from her seat but this time had a destination in mind.

"Where are you going?" he questioned as he grabbed her hand.

"I'm going to talk to my parents and I'll let you mull over what I just said, but I'm pretty sure I already know what your decision is" she smiled coyly at Nathan.

"MOMMY! DADDY!" Haley exclaimed innocently as she walked over to the table of adults.

"It's her wedding day and she's over here still calling me Daddy!" Jimmy James teased.

"Well you know, Daddy's Girls never do quite grow up" she said as she took a seat near her father.

"I'm so happy for you honey" Lydia told her as she smiled at the glowing Haley.

"Thanks mommy, it feels like just yesterday me and Nate were taking baths together" she smiled as she reminisced to herself.

Suddenly Haley heard a loud shriek of excitement behind her.

"LITTLE SISTER YOU'RE MARRIED BEFORE ANY OF US!" Taylor exclaimed as she hugged them.

"So Viv was never able to make it, was she?" Haley asked sadly.

"No but you got me and Tay!" Quinn said enthusiastically.

And to the James sisters' surprise they heard a sudden tapping of wine glasses coming from their father. Haley quickly hurried back to her seat next to Nathan and the room fell silent.

"Hello everyone, I'm Jimmy James, father of the bride" he started.

"Haley is the best daughter you can ask for, she's patient, hardworking, kind, and 9 times out of 10 more mature than her old man." The guests laughed in unison

"And this might come as a surprise to all of you, but giving her away this afternoon was easier than I thought it would be. I think it's because I realized that her whole life she had another man in it but me, and that was Nathan Scott"

Haley smiled at her dad's comment, it was so incredibly true.

"You may think we are crazy parents for letting our daughter get married at 16, but she's in love with a boy she's loved her whole life, what's so wrong with what we did?" he said as he looked down at Lydia.

"I'm 17!" Haley exclaimed playfully.

"Oh, and Haley was always a smartass" he added.

"But in all seriousness, if this were any boy other than Nathan we'd say no in an instant… Nathan was like a son to us, legally for a good portion of our lives, he was. And Nate, I know we weren't the greatest parents but I hope we made adequate makeshift one's after losing Deb and Dan."

Nathan smiled at Jimmy with a wholehearted smile.

"In memory of Dan and Deb Scott, and to Nathan and Haley for the love that will never burn out!"

The wedding reception was finally over and after a night of laughs and love the couple could finally go back home.

As Nathan and Haley were about ready to leave hand-in-hand Brooke interrupted with a loud yell.

"Tutor Wife wait up!" she said as she tried to run as quickly as possible in her heels.

"A gift from Lucas and I! We wanted to wait until the end of the night to give it to you" she smiled.

Nathan took the envelope from Brooke and opened it carefully. The contents being two tickets.

"Brooke…" Haley said slowly not wanting to accept the gift.

"They are two non-refundable tickets to Hawaii, so even if you didn't want to accept you have to or Lucas and I just wasted our money."

"But what about school?"

"Check out the date." Haley looked over the ticket and smiled at the print that said: "June 14"

"This is such a thoughtful gift Brooke…"

"Just think of it as… a honeymoon after finals?" she giggled as Lucas approached her.

"Aww, you gave them the gift without me?!" He whined.

"They were about to leave!"

"Thanks so much you guys" Nathan said as he hugged Brooke and Lucas for the tickets.

"It was no problem, a friendship of 12 years has no price tag" Lucas said getting sentimental.

"I'm really happy for you two" he said as he put an arm around Haley and Nathan.

"Wait! Stay there!" Brooke said as she frantically looked for her camera in her purse.

"On the count of three… one, two, three!"

The three long-time friends looked at each other as she counted down and knew exactly what to do… jump! Even though doing it in heels sounded hard Haley managed to do it for the photo-op.

"We're finally home" Nathan said as he parked into their driveway.

"Home sweet home" Haley smiled as she looked over at her husband.

Nathan quickly got out of his seat and hurried over to the passenger side so he could open the door for Haley. He held his hand out like a gentleman and his wife took it with no problem.

"My husband has such strong hands." Haley said in a giddy tone.

"And my wife has such soft hands" he replied as they walked over to the front door.

Suddenly he swooped Haley up into his arms and held her in the traditional newlywed-style.

"Nathan!" she screamed in surprise as he grabbed her suddenly.

"This is a must-do" he said cutely as he unlocked the door.

Haley couldn't believe her eyes. Nathan transformed the whole house into a beautiful honeymoon suite.

"I know we couldn't afford going on a real honeymoon right after the wedding plus finals coming up but I still wanted this to be the most memorable day for you Hales." He said to her.

The tears started flowing as she looked over the roses scattered across the cream colored carpet leading to the stairs. And to add on to the already beautiful scene they had a huge painting in their living room that was a face consisting of the halves of their faces. The wall adjacent to the painting was a new paint job on the wall that had a huge heart in white that had HJ + NS inside of it. And to top it all off there was a photo wall of when they were little kids and above it a banner that said "Nate the Great and Haley Waley."

"You hate it? God I knew I should've talked to you about it before doing this! I'm sorry Hales, please don't cry" Nathan pleaded as he walked over to the still sobbing Haley.

"I'll paint over it tomorrow morning I promise"

"Don't! it's beautiful…" she managed to let out.

"I love it Nathan, I love it so much" she said as she now stood in the middle of her new favorite room.

"You do?" he said with relief.

"Yes, how did you do this?"

"Peyton did it as a wedding gift, she's felt extremely guilty about trying to break us up during the Marine ball and she wanted to repay us by doing this. Well I did the photo wall she did the painting, god knows I am not artistic, it was a surprise to me when I finished the photo wall.

Haley laughed at the last statement, it was true, he wasn't the most artistic guy. Most likely another reason why this made her so emotional.

"So… wanna go hit the hay or no, we can do anything you want" Nathan said like a little boy.

"Nathan if you're trying to make me comfortable by suggesting such ridiculous stuff it ain't working" Haley said in a sassy matter-of-fact tone.

"I'm sorry, I just don't want to pressure you. I didn't marry you to have sex" he said pleadingly.

"You think we're going to go to bed without having sex on our wedding night. Nathan Scott must really love this Haley James girl" she said talking about them in third person.

He smiled at her slyly and grabbed her hand and began to run up to their bedroom.

Haley was feeling extremely nervous but at the same time has wanted this with him for awhile. The fact that he actually waited and didn't pressure her into anything meant so much to her and now all she wanted to do was please her husband, her best friend, her soulmate.

"Relax Hales" he said as he took his shiny shoes off and hung his tux coat on a hanger.

"I'm attempting" she said as she took deep breaths as if she was meditating.

Nathan simply shook his head at these silly gestures but this just made him love her more.

"Come on, sit down on the bed." He said as he tapped on the edge of the bed.

Shortly after she sat right next to him and looked at him with a worried look.

"We really don't have to do this tonight…" he said as he got behind her and started rubbing her neck and massaging her shoulders.

"No no, it is something that must happen. You just need to guide me through this; I'm all yours." She stated as she let her inhibitions free.

"Are you saying that you're my sex slave?" he chuckled.

"Ew! No! I was just—"

"I was just joking Haley, I understood what you were saying" seeing her squirm like this amused Nathan a bit too much.

She gave him a faint smile and at this moment she was ready. Maybe not physically but mentally she finally was, so Nathan better move quick she thought.

To her surprise Nathan got up from the bed and dimmed the lights a bit, probably to set the tense mood.

"Get up" he instructed her with a stern tone.

But like a dog with its owner Haley obeyed.

"Now relax and let your husband do all the work" he smirked at her as he began to unzip her dress.

"I'm so nervous" she admitted.

"It'll be ok, I'll be gentle don't worry." He said in a hush tone.

At least his words calmed me a bit… Haley thought.

Slowly her dress fell to the ground and she was still turned completely around from him.

"Turn around Hales" he said wanting to see his wife in full-view.

God no, now he has to see me naked…

"Let's not do stuff like this, it's embarrassing" she complained.

"Hales….." he said in a dragged out tone.

Finally she complied and did a 180, she was more beautiful than he thought she would be.

OMG. She's stunning…

"You're perfect Hales" he said in awe.

"You're just saying that…" she sighed in an annoyed tone.

Why does Nate have to be so darn cute?

"I'm not just saying that, you Haley James Scott are perfection."

She began to blush and this only made Nathan more excited.

"I love you," she stated in an almost whisper as he began to lay her down on their queen sized bed.

He kissed her slowly and lovingly in every spot that was revealed. She shuttered at his soft kisses and gentle hands. As he looked down at his beautiful wife he felt his heart skip a beat and couldn't help but smile down at her perfection.

In one swift movement he took his shirt off and shortly after began to unbutton and unzip his slacks.

The anticipation was killing Nathan to the point he could barely take his pants off.

"God, these stupid zippers and buttons!" he said with frustration.

Haley giggled as she watched Nathan struggle as he was straddling her.

"Here let your wife help" she continued to giggle as she undid his pants the first try.

"What would I do without you?" he teased as he threw his pants to the ground.

She simply just smiled and let him continue what he started.

"Just tell me if I'm hurting you ok…?" he said cautiously.

"Ok" she said as she shook her head to show approval

"We'll take it nice and s—slow" he blurted as he moved into her carefully.

She gripped at his back and could tell she'd be digging her nails into his back.

"Nathan…" she let out breathlessly as he began to sway his hips more.

"Are you ok?" he asked as he stilled himself so she could get used to the feeling.

As if it was taking all her energy to do this she simply nodded her head and couldn't speak straight.

Thrust by thrust he did with grace and cautiousness that he began to get caught up in the moment once he felt himself getting close to his breaking point.

"God… this feels so good." He said as he kissed her neck.

"Nathan" she moaned out again.

His movements began to quicken and his control was out of his hands. He knew he'd reach his peak at any moment.

"Haley, love, you're so tight" he let out as he began to feel the pressure building up in him.

She knew what was coming next and gripped onto him tightly in anticipation.

And with a few more thrusts he finally reached his climax and collapsed on top of her in a breathless manner.

"That was good" he complimented as he was breathing like a thirsty dog.

Haley just laughed at his reaction.

"Were you ok? Did I hurt you?" he asked reassuringly as he rolled over to his side of the bed.

"Mhm. You were very gentle." She said lying because she knew halfway through he lost all control.

"Are you sure? I think I got carried away… I'm really sorry it's just that, I haven't had sex in so long…" he said shyly.

"I'm sure" she said as she began to put his shirt on and button it.

"Good" he let out in another deep breath.

"You're breathing so hard, are you ok…?" Haley asked worriedly.

"I'm fine" he stated as he gasped for air.

"You look pale Natey" she said feeling his face with the back of her hand.

"I'm f-fine" he said as his eyes rolled to the back of his head.

"NATHAN!" she screamed as his head lost all support and began to bob.

"Oh my god, baby!" she cried as she realized he was unconscious.

Immediately Haley reached for her phone and dialed 911.

"911 emergency" the operator said in a calm tone.

"M-my husband just passed out and I don't know what's wrong with him!" she cried into the phone.

"Miss, please stay calm, we're sending an ambulance now."

"You need to help me I'm scared" she continued to cry.

"What's your name?"

"H-Haley James S-Scott."

"Well Mrs. Scott can you please feel for a pulse?"

"O-ok…" she sniffled as she grabbed his wrist and tried to feel for one.

"I-I can't feel one…"

A/N: Haley is finally a Scott! I hope you liked this chapter, I'm pretty happy with this one. The words just flowed this time! And I'm sorry with leaving you with a cliffhanger like that but this is what'll intrigue my readers more. Please review! The feedback would be amazing :D
