Meh. Wrote OTH fic. Not at all sure about it. Might not even pimp.





Title: Precipice, 1/1
Author: chaletian
Fandom: One Tree Hill
Rating: PG
Characters: Haley
Spoilers: Vague for up to 6x06
Summary: Following up Haley’s confession that she has nightmares in 6x06. She’s not in control.


She has a dream where chilly, lacy grey wraps around her and she can’t escape and she can’t breathe and she can’t find Jamie, and she wakes up with the comforter twisted around her and Nathan sleeping beside her, and she has to touch Jamie’s tufted sleeping hair before she believes he’s there.

…

She sees Jamie asleep in a car in a shop class somewhere, because there’s nothing, really, you can do to make sure your children are safe.

…

She sees families fragmented, marriages broken, couples apart, parents who are strangers to their children, and wonders how anything survives.

…

She sees a world beyond her control; beyond anyone’s control. A husband injured. A child threatened. She has nightmares, but when she wakes up the fears don’t go away.

…

Fear consumes her, and hesitantly, she talks to Nathan about it. He hugs her, tells her he’ll always be there, and that she’s Haley James Scott, and she can do anything. She knows that’s not answer. She’s knows it trite. She knows that every day they’re walking blind along a precipice, because you never know when you might slip, or something might push you, and you’re gone, out of control. She knows all this. But Nathan’s arms are around her, and she can feel his heart beating, and his hair brushing against her cheek, and Haley James Scott believes him.
