Chapter 6: I Wanna Dance With Somebody

PROM

The day was finally here: senior prom. Haley and Brooke had been dreaming about their senior prom from the time that they were in third grade. They had notebooks designated to their senior prom, their wedding, and their future children. When they were younger they were ambitious and felt the need to be organized and to plan. Today, Haley was more of a planner than Brooke was but those memories were still there. What the book didn't tell Haley was that she would be going to her senior prom with none other than Nathan Scott, the boy who use to throw sand at her on the playground and stick gum under her desk as his way of "flirting". Haley was thankful that he had matured since then.

While Haley was in la-la land about prom, Brooke was distraught. She had gone through all of her dresses in her closet and not one of them fit her standard. She was kicking herself in the ass because she had never gone prom dress shopping because she was too caught up in cheerleading, Lucas, and battling with morning sickness that she lost track of time. Now, here she was with no dress and a small baby bump that was starting to slowly form but only she could notice because she stared at her body every day. She wasn't going to really show until a couple more months. She was still very early in her pregnancy but she knew she was gaining weight and she felt like the entire world noticed, when in fact they didn't. Being constantly in the eye of the school body, Brooke had to make sure that no one would notice her weight gain. She wasn't ready to come out to everyone that she was pregnant, but at the same time she wanted the secret to be lifted off her shoulders. She still hadn't even told her mother, who would surely have a fit and tell Brooke that this was one big mistake and that she was ruining her life. She wasn't ready for that negativity, especially after how shocked Karen was when they told her.

"HALEY! I have NOTHING to wear!" Brooke screamed, as she ripped down yet another dress from her closet and threw it on the floor.

"I'm sure there's something that you can wear Brooke. I mean, you have so many clothes. Just makeshift something. You are an aspiring fashion designer after all right?" Haley tried to reassure her best friend who was frantically pacing around the room with her hands on her hips.

"What if I look fat in my dress? I can't look fat. I'm not ready for that."

"I'm sure you won't look fat Brooke. You're less than 2 months into your pregnancy and you don't start to show until at least 4 months, you're just being self-conscious."

"OMG I just realized something tutor girl. I can't wear any bikinis this summer because I'll be pregnant! I'm gonna be pregnant on Halloween and Thanksgiving too, well maybe not Thanksgiving if the baby decides to come on time." Brooke was frantic.

"Brooke, breathe. Pregnant women wear bikinis all the time. Besides, you'll look fine pregnant! You always look good! Lucas can agree with me on that What's your due date again if you got pregnant in March?"

"November 17th. What if he doesn't love me anymore when I'm fat Tutorgirl?" Brooke began to cry and Haley went and hugged her. She knew that this was the hormones playing a role but damn, Brooke was all over the place.

"Oh stop that nonsense! I know Luke and I know that he will love you even more when you're fat and pregnant. Besides, don't let this ruin your night. We have been dreaming about this since we were 7! Nothing could go wrong!"

Lucas hadn't talked to his mom since the incident at the hospital with Dan. She admitted that she called Dan when she found out the news and for that, Lucas was not happy with her. Since he wasn't talking to her he decided to go to Mouth's with the other guys and get ready for prom. He didn't want to be in his house and he didn't want to be there when his mom asked to take a million pictures of him and Brooke on the night of his senior prom. When Nathan asked Lucas to pick him up he was estatic, mainly because it meant that he wouldn't have to be home any longer.

"Hey man, thanks for driving." Nathan said as he slid into the seat and shut the door. Prom was a little over an hour away and they were going to Mouth's to get their tuxedos on and play video games until the girls showed up and they were forced to smile in every single photo.

"Not a problem Nate. Besides, I needed to get out of my house."

"Still haven't talked to Karen I take it? Leave it to Dan to continue to make our lives miserable."

"He's such an ass but my mom shouldn't have called him in the first place. My mom has never relied or gone to Dan about anything involving me so I don't get why the sudden change." Lucas shrugged. He had been trying to figure out this puzzle but it made no sense. Dan wasn't around when Karen was pregnant with Lucas so if she thought that he could give Lucas some "fatherly" advice than she was mistaken.

"Don't let it get to you man. It's our senior prom and my mom said we can use the beach house tonight for a party!"

"Brooke can't drink Nathan, she's pregnant."

"Yeah, but what does that have to do with you man?" Nathan was confused. He knew Brooke couldn't drink but what did that have to do with Lucas?

"If she can't drink then I really shouldn't either. Besides, I'm driving."

"That's what Uber is for.. besides this makes things a little awkward because Mouth is putting nips in all our tuxedos right now." Nathan laughed at Lucas's reaction. This was going to be a fun night.

It was almost finally time for prom. The girls were arriving at Mouth's house so that they could take an endless amount of photos before jumping into the limo that Brooke's dad got and heading off to prom. The guys had taken a couple shots and all slid some sort of flask into their tux, making sure that it wasn't visible to the outside eye. It probably wasn't their best decision, but it was prom and they felt fine. None of them were going to drive, except Lucas, who insisted that he and Brooke take a separate car so they could have some alone time. Brooke loved the idea, even though her dad was the one that arranged to have the limo sent for them to arrive in.

When Haley James stepped out of the car, Nathan lost his breathe. She looks so fucking beautiful. He thought to himself as she approached him. She was wearing an olive green strapless dress that wasn't too tight but accented her curves. It was long and flowly and her hair was in a simple up do with a couple curls falling in the front. Her makeup was very neutral with brown tones, making it look almost completely natural. He couldn't believe that this gorgeous woman in front of him was his.

"Nathan, are you going to say anything?" Haley giggled as she approached Nathan who hadn't said a word to her since she arrived.

"I'm speechless. You look so, so, beautiful Hales. I'm so lucky that you're mine." He kissed her sweetly and she blushed as he put on her corsage. "Are you ready for the best night of your life Haley James?"

Prom was going great. It exceeded Haley's expectations when her and Nathan won Prom King and Queen. The look on Brooke's face was priceless. Of course Brooke was happy for her best friend but there was a ping of jealousy of wanting the same crown. Nathan never left Haley's side and completely forgot that he had alcohol on him. He didn't need alcohol to make him happy when he had Haley by his side. It was crazy that even though they were sweaty and had been dancing the night away, Nathan was still breathless when he looked at Haley. She could wear anything and do anything and Nathan would still find her absolutely beautiful.

Brooke and Lucas on the other hand, weren't having as much fun. Brooke was upset about losing Prom Queen and that no one had complimented her 'Brooke Davis' original dress. Lucas was drinking and the smell of the alcohol alone made Brooke want to vomit. They had only gotten to dance a couple times because Brooke either had to pee or she would get super nauseous and have to sit down. So, she began telling people that she was pregnant. She was lonely, Lucas kept wondering off to get some punch or find the guys and he even managed to get a dance in with Haley. She really just told her cheerleading squad, who were all ecstatic for her and told her that her and Lucas would have beautiful babies together, and she loved the sound of that. Nothing was suppose to go wrong…

"Congrats Luke!" Bevin went up and patted Lucas on the back. He was confused, what was she congratulating him for? He assumed it was for him scoring the winning basket at the game two days ago but wondered why Bevin hadn't thanked him earlier when they were at practice since she had seen the whole thing.

"Thanks Bevin. I just got lucky with that basket."

"Oh my God, why would you say something about Brooke like that?!" Bevin was clearly offended and stormed off. Lucas looked at Nathan and hoped that he understood what was going on. Nathan just shrugged and shook his head. He was as clueless as Nathan was.

"What was she talking about?" Lucas asked Skills who had just walked up to them with Bevin who still looked pissed off.

"Man, why would you say something about your girl like that?" Skills asked as he shook his head at Lucas. Nathan laughed; this was entertaining. For once he wasn't in the spotlight and he was thankful.

"Skills I'm confused. Bevin was congratulating me on the win the other day. What are you guys talking about?"

"Nah man, Bevin was congratulating you on the news man. You're gonna be a dad!"

"Skills… how do you know this?" Nathan choked on his punch when he heard this. Nathan knew that Brooke and Lucas hadn't told anyone yet and didn't plan to because the school year was so close to being over. Yet, he couldn't turn his gaze away from the drama unfolding before him.

"Brooke told us." With that, Lucas motioned for Nathan to give him his flask and he chugged the entire thing, even though Nathan told him not to. Then he marched over to Haley and asked her to give him his keys. Haley was the key holder since she had a big enough wristlet that she wouldn't let leave her side. Haley refused, smelling the alcohol on Lucas's breath and went to find Nathan.

"Nathan – what's going on with Lucas? He's drunk. Why is he drunk, that's not like him. He only drinks like that when something's seriously wrong." Haley was concerned about her best friend.

"I guess Brooke told the cheerleading squad she was pregnant and people were coming up to Lucas in waves and congratulating him. He couldn't handle it."

"So you gave him your flask right?" Nathan could hear a hint of annoyance in her voice.

"Yeah, I mean he asked for it. I didn't think that he would chug it!"

"Nathan you idiot! You know how Lucas gets! Why would you do that!" She went to go slap him with her wristlet when she realized it had been clipped off. "Oh my god, where's my wristlet?"

"What – Hales, you weren't suppose to lose that!" Their attention was redirected when they heard a loud bang by the entrance way. There was Lucas stumbling out of the gymnasium with what Haley spotted as her bright green wristlet.

"Oh no. I have to stop him. I can't let him drive!"

"Haley! Haley – wait!" It was too late. Haley was chasing after Lucas who was stumbling to his car. She couldn't keep up with her heels on so she ripped them off and threw them at Nathan, who was also chasing her out of prom. Everyone was watching them. "Haley, do not get in that car with him!"

"I won't! I just need to stop him before he can get away!" Nathan was distracted by Brooke, who, grabbed his arm and immediately began asking him 50 questions.

"Brooke, I would love to stay and answer your million questions about Lucas but the girl I love is getting away and she's more important right now." Nathan turned to see Lucas's car speeding out of the parking lot and he saw the familiar face he loved sitting in the passenger seat. "No way." Nathan couldn't believe Haley would be stupid enough to get in the car with Lucas. She must be trying to stop him or something. Haley isn't that dumb.. I hope Nathan thought to himself. He had to go after them…

"LUCAS STOP THIS CAR AND GIVE ME THE DAMN KEYS!" Haley knew she shouldn't have gotten into the car with him. She wanted to stop him. She wanted to get him to get out of the car and stop acting like this. This wasn't like Lucas. There had to be more going on with him that she just couldn't figure out.

"Haley for the last time, I'M FINE. SEE! I'm driving straight."

"If you call swerving back and forth straight then great job Luke. But stop this car, this is dangerous! What is wrong with you!?" Haley was so frustrated. She reached for the shift but Lucas slapped her hand away and gripped onto the shift himself so that Haley couldn't move the car into park.

"I can't do this Haley. I can't be a dad."

"Luke, what are you talking about?! You're going to be a great father. Is that what all of this is about?"

"No. My mom called Dan and he called me and tried to give me fatherly advice and I wanted to punch them both because Dan is irrelevant in my life and I just can't." His words were all over the place and Haley saw Lucas begin to cry. He turned and looked at her. "I just, when Brooke -"

"LUCAS LOOK OUT!" Haley yelled as a large truck honked at them and the bright headlights blinded Haley. They had swerved into the other lane and Lucas took the wheel and turned it away from the truck. Haley breathed a sigh of relief until she felt the car going over, into a ditch, hitting the guard rail and begin to tumble. She gripped onto her seat and the door handle and prayed to the good Lord that this wasn't happening. She couldn't even find her phone to call 911 to stop this mess. Before she knew it she was being shifted, her head smacking the window and everything went black.
