Nathan was staring at the water from the fountain, still thinking about that crazy dream he had the night before. The weirdest dream ever. He could see Haley drowning, in her wedding dress, and there was nothing he could do to save her. Nothing. The Craker Jack bracelet he had given her on their first tutoring session and some purples flowers were scattered on the water. That was creepy. What the hell could this mean?? he thought, his eyes still hypnotized by the water.

"Nathan!" Lucas' voice woke him up from his nightmarish daydreaming. "Are you okay?"
"Yeah." He said, unenthusiastic. "Have you checked on Haley?"
"Yeah, she's fine."
"But she should be here by now. Can you call her?" He couldn't help the sight of Haley screaming and drowning running constantly in his mind.
"Nate..."
"Please." Nathan interrupted. "Just do it." This sounded more like an order than a request but Lucas didn't want to play the I'm-the-big-brother-you-don't-tell-me-what-to-do card today. Plus, Nathan looked very worried so why not help putting him at rest? He knew everything was fine with Haley, Karen or Brooke or anyone would have called if anything had happened, this was just some pre-marital-again groom scare.
"Okay, alright." He fianlly agreed.

Hearing Haley's voice and seeing her was just what Nathan needed. He knew she was safe, he knew she was happy, and he knew she was beautiful. Well, he knew that already. He had been knowing how beautiful she was since the first time he had seen her. But in her wedding dress... God, she was mind-blowing. The dress was already gorgeous by itself but with Haley's body in it, it was just perfect. Yeah, perfection, that was it.

"So, you okay now?" Lucas asked, a little grin on his face.
"Yeah, I'm fine. Don't start teasing me about all this, alright?"
"I promise I won't tease you about that... today. But I can't promise I won't be tempted to tease you about that when the wedding's over." He was nearly laughing now.
"Alright, okay, that's enough, just go... somewhere else and I'll go the other way." Nathan couldn't help the smile.

Nathan walked through the church's garden, taking deep breaths and repeating his vows in his head. Strangely, he wasn't nervous. Not at all. He had already gone through a wedding once and had actually had liked it. There was just 5 people for the first wedding and today there had to be more then 50 but that didn't make any difference to him. He was used to being the center of attention from playing basketball and he didn't mind. Alright, let's be honest, he loved this feeling.

He stopped, looking around him. Everything was going to be fine, he knew it now. The sun was bright, the temperature was great. Nature was on our side. he thought, smiling. This was what he wanted, showing all the people he knew how much he loved Haley. They had no faith in them the first time but they better believe in them today because this time, it would last. No tour, no Chris Keller, no High Flyers, no Dan, no anything to come between them. Not this time. She was his and he was hers. Period.
