Reunion

Chapter 22

'She's so gorgeous and perfect...stop it. You can't have her. You blew it with her all those years ago. I can't help how I'm feeling but I know she'll never feel the same again. Damn it. Why did I have to be such a jerk to her? I had everything but I lost it all thanks to myself,' Stefano thought to himself as he watched Haley. There had been a time where he had even considered keeping her as a serious girlfriend, unlike the rest of his past lovers Haley just was something else. She was sweet, sexy, sassy, and one hell of a lover which was a rare thing to find in someone, in Stefano's opinion.

"Do you ever think about the future with us?" Haley asked one night while they were laying down on the couch watching a movie, one of the cheesy romantic movies Haley usually hated but tonight she just...didn't. "Sometimes...which is something I've never said before...about anyone," Stefano confessed. "Aww...I'm glad...I know things at times haven't been ideal between us...you cheating on me with Pia, me cheating on you with Casey, you cheating on me with that random ass girl...what was her name?" Haley laughed. "Megan? I don't even know," Stefano laughed. "Anyway like I was saying things aren't exactly what everyone expects a couple to be like but...I just think that maybe this could be a forever kind of thing....I'm not a sappy romantic but hey, anyone can be turned some way," Haley shrugged.

"Exactly...I've never been a one woman guy until you...I know we cheated in the past but I'm glad we could forgive each other...because I don't want to be without you," Stefano said stroking Haley's hair. "I don't want to be without you either Fano...not a chance," Haley smiled as they kissed. It was all too perfect. But then he had to blow it with that fateful night that changed everything between him and Haley forever.

"Dude I dare you to pretend like you don't know her," his friend, Eric, egged him on as his other cronies laughed. "Yeah do it! It'll be a classic Stefano," Russell smirked. "I don't know guys...I like her a lot," Stefano said. "Aww is Fano going soft now on us...look dude...there's these 4 hot babes who wanna get with us tonight...they won't go with us unless you're in so are you in or out," Damien said. "Alright I'm in...but it better be worth losing Haley," Stefano said. "Yeah it will," Eric laughed as the guys high fived each other. They proceeded to boo Haley during her bad performance that they had dared Stefano to get Haley to do. "YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW THE WORDS," Damien yelled as Haley looked the most horrified Stefano had ever seen her. Haley was always Miss Cool, Miss Nothing could crack her but yet tonight...she looked on the verge of cracking.

"CLASSIC," Russell laughed as the 3 guys high-fived one another. Stefano just felt....awful. "I can't believe I did that to her," Stefano sighed. "Dude...it'll be worth it...you'll have your freedom for one more night without a girlfriend to drag you down. You always said she wouldn't leave you for nothing...she's just gotta prove it," Damien laughed. "Fine..." Stefano agreed as his cronies dragged him out of the venue when Haley was looking right over at them. Stefano felt awful. "Best night ever," Eric laughed as they were outside the arena. "Dude...come on...forget her...litterally," Damien laughed.

"There you are...what the hell? Why did you leave me in there alone? Wasn't this fucking tribute your idea...I didn't want to go yet you dragged me here. The owner had to defend me...seriously...it's just not cool," Haley huffed. Stefano contimplated what to do for awhile. He could go off with his girlfriend who, who knows how long they really would last...or he could go with his bros who he'd known forever. "I'm sorry...who are you?" Stefano said as his friends laughed. "You know exactly who I am Stefano...cut the crap," Haley snapped. "Stefano? No you must have me mistaken...I'm Scotty...nice to meet you," Stefano said as his friends laughed.

"You idiot...you don't recognize him...wow she can't remember a damn song and can't even remember which Idol she fucked...man she is fucked up," Damien laughed as the others joined in. "WHORELY WHORELY," they chanted to Haley, Whorely was a mean nickname they had come up with for Haley which she had only heard tonight. "Seriously....you're going to stand for this...first the whole song thing...now this....I'm over it Stefano...I thought you changed but apparently you haven't....I'm leaving now for good and I am never coming back," Haley said as she turned away from him fighting the tears, almost wishing he would stop her and apologize...but he didn't. His friends continued to chant "WHORELY" has she walked away. She then headed for the only place she knew she could always go...no matter what had happened to her before that....Casey's.
