Living the Moment ♡ Nathan Scott Fan Fiction ♡ WATTYS2020

Spirit in the Night

Haley, Lucas and Claudia were walking onto the school grounds together. Claudia was wearing her cheerleading outfit. 

"Well I guess you should feel pretty lucky you get to hang out with me like this." Haley joked looking at her best friends. "Do you have any other wishes I can grant?" Haley asked and Lucas smirked at her.

"Yeah." Lucas replied. "Why don't you come to the tournament this weekend?" Lucas asked and Claudia nodded her head in agreement. 

"Ugh." Haley groaned and the Claudia made kissing faces behind Lucas. "Alright. Yeah. You're on." Haley smiled and Claudia winked at her.

"Alright?" Lucas asked and Haley nodded her head.

"Yeah." Haley replied.

"Alright. Thank you, genie." Lucas said sweetly as he threw his arm over Haley shoulder. Claudia leaned into Haley.

"This will be great. You two will have some alone time." Claudia whispered and Haley smiled to herself. Nathan comes up behind them. Lucas see's and him and Haley smiled at Claudia.

"Catch you later." They both said before they walked away from Claudia.

"How's it going?" Nathan asked holding Claudia's hand as they walked.

"Well, in a startling new development, Haley is coming to the tournament so I just need her to get with Lucas!" Claudia exclaimed and Nathan looked confused. "Trust me by the end of this weekend Lucas will be with Haley." Claudia replied and Nathan laughed at his girlfriend.

"Will you ever stop being a matchmaker?" Nathan asked and Claudia shook her head.

"Not a chance. I love to medley and see people happy." Claudia smiled.

"You and me in the same hotel?" Nathan asked raising an eyebrow. "This weekend just got interesting." Nathan smirked and Claudia stood till. Nathan turned to face her.

"Down boy." Claudia joked. "So how'd it go?" Claudia asked curious about his apartment.

"I got the apartment." Nathan exclaimed and Claudia jumped out and hugged him.

"Ah, that's great." Claudia shouted as Nathan placed her down.

"I drained my savings, paid first and last month's rent. It's mine on Sunday." Nathan explained and Claudia grinned like the cheshire cat.

"So cool!" Claudia exclaimed as Nathan left her with the cheerleaders. Claudia and the girls had been practicing for ages outside.

"Okay. Theresa, terrible posture. Pinch that penny. Bevin, you need...a breath mint. Peyton. Nice form. And excellent betrayal of a best friend." Brooke stated angrily as she walked past each of the girls in the line up. She finally reached Claudia. "Tutor girl, at least look like you are enjoying yourself!" Brooke said right in her face.

"Brooke even I can't be that fake." Claudia laughed but Brooke wasn't having it. Claudia quickly stopped laughing. 

"Wrong. Wrong. Wrong. You guys!" Brooke shouted getting annoyed with her cheerleaders. "This weekend is the Classic. It's our biggest cheer competition. Aren't you sick of Clair Young and Bear Creek Warriors taking home the trophy every year? Because I am. We need to get it together here and I'm not just talking about our routine. I'm talking hair, nails...underarms, Theresa." Brooke listed as she walked down the line. Claudia looked like she was dying a slow and torturous death.

"Brooke, cheerleading is supposed to be fun." Bevin moaned.

"Yeah? Well winning's funner. And if you don't like it you can go cheer for the wrestling team. Take five." Brooke shouted and Peyton marched up to Brooke as they spoke.
