I wasn't planning on making an "Epilogue" (if you can call it that) but I love Naley when they're a famous couple and I heard another Taylor Swift song (Love Story) and was inspired to write this final chapter. Plus I had free time and wanted to write, so I thought why not?

Anyways, I hope you like it. It's not the best, but it was a fun idea to create.

Thank you for all the kind reviews, I immensely appreciate them. Seriously.

I hope you enjoy this! xox

Disclaimer that no one reads: I do not own the lyrics (Taylor Swift does) but I wish I did, and I don't own Naley but I also wish I did because ugh I would make a 24 hour movie about them.


"Please welcome me in joining the one and only, Haley James!" Ellen Degeneres shouted over the deafening screams of the rowdy audience. 25 year old, American Sweetheart, Haley James flashed her million dollar smile while eloquently greeting her fans followed by a small wave to her fans. She strutted across the stage and met Ellen with a friendly hug.

"Hello! You look stunning as usual!" The blonde haired comedian, and talk show host greeted the singer.

Haley giggled softly, "Hi! Thanks so much for having me. I'm so excited!" She exclaimed truthfully as she took a seat on the white couch across from Ellen.

"Thanks for coming." Ellen stated with an appreciative smile as she too, sat down on her large leather red chair.

"It's a true honor." Haley responded which led the crowd to cheer loudly.

Ellen clapped along with the audience, then grabbed a few cue-cards as Haley crossed her left leg over the right while patiently waiting to be interviews.

"Alright, so before we get to the part everyone's been dying to know…" Ellen stated with a knowing smirk in which Haley blushed intensely. "I'd like to congratulate you on your song of the year award last night at the TCA's." She finished, and was rewarded with more deafening shouts deriving from the large audience. Haley smiled once again, and looked out at the crowd. "Thank you! Really, this award wouldn't have happened without my amazing fans, so you should be congratulating them for being so awesome and voting for me!" Haley replied with a chaste smile followed by a round of applause from the smiling fans.

Ellen beamed proudly, "And apparently this award wouldn't have happened if you hadn't written that song… 'Enchanted,' right?" She questioned as Haley shifted slightly, feeling her cheeks burn with heat.

"Yes." She nodded with a beaming smile.

"And so in your speech, you thanked the person who was the inspiration behind the lyrics." Ellen recalled with a deliberate smirk.

"I did, yes." Haley giggled in confirmation.

"For those who need a reminder, let's watch it again. Shall we?" Ellen asked over the roaring cheers. Suddenly, a large screen slowly descended which revealed an image of Haley on stage at the TCA Awards about to make an acceptance speech. The applause grew louder while Haley hid her flaming cheeks behind her palms as the video started to play.


Ryan Seacrest sauntered over to the microphone stand that rested in the middle of the Teen Choice Award stage, as the enormous mass of people screamed in anticipation.

"How y'all doing tonight?" Ryan screamed as he smirked at the cameras. "It's a true honor to be announcing the award for Song of the Year. Every single artist in this category is truly talented and each song is incredible. So, without further ado, the nominees for song of the year are: Haley James, 'Enchanted'-" the cameras then quickly shot over to the honey blonde haired singer who smiled softly as she grabbed her date's hand, squeezing it gently, reacting in fan girl shrieks across the hall. "Miley Cyrus, 'Adore You'- Beyonce, 'Drunk in Love', Justin Timberlake, 'Mirrors', and 'All of Me', John Legend."

Once the cameras finished showing small clips of each singer, the angle fell back on Ryan who was slowly tearing open a blue envelope which revealed the award winner.

He looked at the camera and smirked after a small pause.

"And the winner… of the song of the year goes to: …" . . . "Enchanted- Haley James!" He announced with a proud smile as he clapped along with the shrill screaming audience.

Haley's chocolate brown eyes double in size as her jaw literally dropped in reaction. Shocked was an understatement.

After the initial stun wore off, she stood up with a blissful smile as she threw her arms around her date's neck who kissed her in response- only making the cheers grow in decibels.

"I knew you could do it!" He whispered in her ear as she looked into his crystal shining eyes, mirroring his glimmering smile.

Haley giggled and reluctantly pulled away from him as she hugged a few other supporters and crew members, then practically floated over to the stairs as she ascended up the staircase in order to retrieve her award, quietly thanking Ryan Seacrest and kissed him softly on the cheek.

She felt her cheeks start to hurt from the smile stretching over her face. She didn't think it was possible to smile so widely.

Her image practically glowed as she stood under the spotlight, radiating her pearly white smile, and satin yellow gown that looked painted on her slim body.

She stood holding the award with her mouth slightly ajar in front of the microphone.

"Wow, I'm honestly… wow. Speechless." She chuckled nervously gazing out into the seemingly endless crowd, who cheered in admiration.

She smiled once more, and took a deep breath. "I was not expecting this, so I really don't even have a speech prepared. Everyone in this category is absolutely amazing, and they all deserve a round of applause!" She shouted over the claps.

"I'd like to thank all of the fans. I know it's cliche, but you are really the best fans anyone could ever ask for. Thanks for your dedication and kind words. I'm so glad you like the song. It's a really special song to me, and so I'd like to thank everyone who took part in the making of it. Thanks to my best friend, producer, and manager, Peyton Sawyer for endless hours in the studio and positive feedback. Also my band members, Chris, Joe, Nick, and Alex. You guys are awesome!" She shouted as the camera flashed over to her crew members who were engaging in a set of high fives. "And finally, I'd like to thank the inspiration behind the song, as well as my sexy date tonight- Nathan Scott. Thank you for believing in me, and thank you for supporting me. I was enchanted to meet you." She finished with a teary smile as she gave him a quick wink, and the cameras focused in on Nathan who donned a proud smile as he stood up and clapped for his beautiful girlfriend of almost four months.

And once again, the crowd went crazy.


The clip finally ended, and the crowd in Ellen's studio practically gushed over the content, all the while still completely confused.

"Okay so, holy crapola!" Ellen explained. "That was the biggest shock of the night! You and playboy Nathan Scott? I didn't see that coming! Hell- I don't think anyone did! Would you please mind explaining to America what happened? And please tell me it's not a publicity stunt, because I'm kind of shipping 'Naley' right now." She laughed as Haley giggled girlishly, and inhaling nervously.

"Okay well, no, it was definitely not a publicity stunt." Haley immediately declared. "I felt it was finally time to reveal our relationship, and last night was the perfect opportunity to do so." She shared, fighting off a smile.

"Relationship?" Ellen asked with high eyebrows. "As in, he wasn't just a random date, like you guys are official?"

Haley giggled and smiled dreamily, "Yes, Nathan and I are together, and I've never been happier." She revealed as the crowd reacted wildly.

Ellen smiled at the obviously love struck singer. "Well good for you! I'm so happy for you two- but I'm still confused! How long has this been going on for?"

Haley bit softly down on her lip, "Umm like four months." She stated shyly, and Ellen, along with the rest of the group shouted in disbelief.

"No way!' Ellen challenged playfully. "How the hell is this possible?"

"Well we've kept it a secret because we didn't want to get involved with publicity, so we decided to stay private. It was extremely difficult- especially considering our crazy schedules between my tour and his NBA games, but we made it work." Haley gushed blissfully.

"So the rumors were true then?" Ellen speculated.

Haley smiled apprehensively, "Yes, but we never confirmed them because we wanted to wait until the right time. Thankfully most of the rumors were swept under the rug. One of my biggest concerns were that a fan or paparazzi would capture us together. We wanted to reveal our relationship on our terms, not because we were forced to."

"So how do you think the rumors started?" Ellen inquired.

Haley took a quick chug of water, and responded to the question, "I think it was right after 'Enchanted' was released. Everyone was digging to find out who it was about, but I kind of dodged the question each time but just replying that it was someone I met really quickly. Anyway, people started to look back at the events I had gone to, probably to try and see if there were any pictures of me with someone, and actually one of the fundraisers- the one where I met Nathan- someone linked the two of us together, since we were in a group photo, but luckily no one further investigated it."

Ellen nodded in understanding, then proceeded with the questioning, "Okay, so tell us about the night you met!"

Haley giggled, "It's a funny story actually. I was singing on stage, and I see him for the first time, and I swore I felt my heart like literally stop. His eyes- well I'm sure you've seen his eyes. God they're to die for-" She rambled featuring her dreamy smile, and waving her hands in front of her body. "Well anyway, I saw his eyes, and they were just so intense, so I get up after my set and walk over to the bar to try and find him. i don't even know what I was thinking. My mind and body were basically on auto pilot. And so as I was searching the crowd for him, I ran into a hard body, of course spilling my drink all over my dress-' She flushed with embarrassment as the crowd laughed. "And I look up, and once again my heart stopped, and I almost choked on air, because guess who it was?"

"Me?" Ellen joked as the audience chuckled along.

Haley giggled, "Nope. Nathan."

"Awww!" Ellen cooed. "Then what happened?"

"Well to make a long story short, I was extremely mortified considering I looked like an idiot in front of the hottest guy I've ever met, and so he was a real gentleman and helped me get cleaned up. He then bought me another drink and we went for a walk on the beach to kind of get to know each other, and we danced for a while, but unfortunately my manager pulled me away since it was getting late, and I never got to say goodbye or give him my number. So for like three months, I was living in a state of 'what could have been' and I found myself thinking about him almost all the time. He changed my life. Honestly. It wasn't just one of those- you meet someone once, and it fades away- no, this was intense. And so, that night, I went to the studio at three am and wrote the lyrics to 'Enchanted', which every single word was about Nathan and that night." Haley completely revealed truthfully.

Ellen smiled as the audience basked in the romance.

"So don't leave us hanging! What happened next?" Ellen begged.

Haley chuckled as she clasped her hands together and smiled eagerly, "So after three months of torture and not being able to contact him, one night I'm playing a gig and after I sung 'Enchanted', I made my way off stage to find my manager, and two guys waiting for me in the wings. At first I thought I was dreaming, and as I got closer I realized it was Nathan, and his agent, Clay. So I ran into his arms and he kissed me so tenderly. God, it was the most memorable night of my life." Haley shared with a wonderstruck smile.

"Then what?"

"Well then he begged me to let him take me out, and since we didn't want to be seen together, he made a phone call and thirty minutes later we were on top of some cafe roof. Just the two of us. It was so romantic. I think we stayed up there until like five in the morning just watching the stars, drinking wine and talking about everything. I felt so connected to him, y'know?"

Ellen smiled in understanding. "Wow, I had no idea Nathan could be so romantic." She joked, referring to his bad boy rep.

"Yeah, I know. The media paints him in such a negative light. But in real life, he is the kindest person I know. He's so selfless, and just purely wonderful." Haley stated softly.

"Wow. You know, it kind of makes sense now. He hasn't been in the news in over six months. usually he was on a new cover every week with a different girl." Ellen pointed out.

Haley bit down on her pink lip, "Yea…" She drawled out. "Well hopefully that won't happen anytime soon." She said with a small laugh. "I think he grew out of that phase. Really, the Nathan Scott I know is completely different than the one on those magazines. The past four months he has been completely devoted to me."

"So you aren't worried he will revert to his old playboy ways?" Ellen asked.

"Not at all. I trust him with my life. We've been together for a while now, and although we haven't seen each other in a few weeks due to our conflicting schedules, every single night he has called me, or sent me flowers on a random day, and not once was he in a tabloid pictured with a random girl." Haley answered honestly.

"Wow. Well good, I'm truly glad he treats you so well. You deserve the best. I know as soon as you were pictured with him yesterday, people assumed you were together or whatever, and immediately they started to say he wasn't good enough for you-" Ellen announced.

Haley replied with a small frown, "Yeah, that was definitely one of the reasons why we kept our relationship hidden for so long. Rumors, and comments are almost always negative impacts on relationships. So for the first few months we wanted to try and act like a real couple without worrying about who has to saw what. It was kind of nice, but then reality set in, and I didn't want to hide it anymore. I wanted the world to know that Nathan Scott and I are in a fully committed relationship." She shared. "I know how girls can get, and so the world has to know Nathan Scott is no longer on the market, so back off." She said in an obvious joking tone, followed by sticking her tongue out playfully, and letting out a small laugh. "No, but seriously, he's been the one wanting to come clean for a while. I kept saying like, 'No, you know, I've been enjoying just us together.' That was one of our first fights actually…" Haley began with a small chuckle, "He wanted me to be his date to one of his charity events like last month, and I was worried because I didn't feel like it was the right time and I guess he got worried and thought I was embarrassed to be with him, which is so not true." She said with a firm smile.

"So what happened?" Ellen encouraged.

Haley blushed, "Umm it wasn't too bad of a fight. I just explained to him that I was still worried about the media, but at the same time I did want to announce it. But we agreed that him going as my date to the TCA's would be the perfect time. Plus, sneaking around was kind of fun. I liked it, despite how difficult it was." Haley shared. "Nathan agreed about the sneaking around part, I just think he wanted to show me off." She giggled. "But now that it's in the open, I feel a lot better, and it's fun finally being able to show people how much I care about him."

Ellen nodded, "I must say it was a shock, but I'm really excited for you guys. Are you still worried about the media affecting your relationship?"

Haley took a small inhalation and fiddled with her pinky ring, "Not really. I mean, I'm not naive, I know there will probably be rumors like next week that we eloped or something, and of course people will probably criticize me for dating him, or tell Nathan that I'm not good enough, you know, stuff like that, but we've prepared for this. I know it's going to be different since we are so used to being private, but at the same time, it might be easier since it's in the open and nothing's hidden- it comes along with the territory of being celebrities, and we're okay with that. This is a big step in our relationship, but we're ready. I honestly believe we can overcome anything, as long as he's by my side."

Ellen smiled along with the 'awwing' audience. "So how do you think you'll deal with this big step? Like you said, it's a big change. Will it hurt your relationship?"

"No." Haley said immediately. "We were ready for this. I know the rumors will probably strain it a little, but at the end of the day, we know the truth. So, no matter what you hear, if it doesn't come from us, then it's probably not true." She concluded.

"Okay, I'll be sure to keep that in mind." Ellen smiled. "So apparently Nathan's here with you today, right?"

Haley felt a beaming smile widen over her face, "Yes."

"Do you think we should bring him out here?" Ellen asked as the camera turned to behind the stage where Nathan was standing looking over at Haley donning a large smirk.

"I'd love that!" Haley giggled as the audience went crazy.

Nathan suddenly stepped onto the stage walking over to Haley as she stood up and greeted him half way, wrapping her arms around his torso, and Ellen came over and joined their hug making everyone laugh.

"I wanted a piece of the Naley hug." Ellen smiled as she hugged Nathan again, thanking him for coming.

Haley smiled as she scooted over, making room for Nathan on the couch as he kissed her on the cheek and wrapped his arm around her. "I missed you."

Haley blushed as the audience cooed. "I missed you too." She giggled as she placed her hand on his knee.

"Oh my gosh, I think you guys became my favorite couple. Seriously, you're freaking adorable. You're even matching!" Ellen pointed out as she noticed Nathan's khakis, and navy blue sweater which was the exact same color of Haley's sun dress.

Haley looked over to him and smiled, "We didn't even plan it."

"I just wear blue a lot, because she says it brings out my eyes." Nathan smirked as the girls screamed.

"His eyes are beautiful! I literally get lost in them." Haley gushed girlishly.

"Y'all just keep getting cuter and cuter don't you?" Ellen laughed.

"She makes me look good." Nathan answered with a loving smile. "Seriously, how beautiful does she look today? And last night she looked stunning! I saw her and I was breathless." Nathan said staring into her chocolate brown orbs.

Haley smiled breathlessly and took his hand to squeeze it gently.

Ellen placed her hand over her heart and pretended to hyperventilate. "You two! I can't even!"

Haley giggled, "he's sweet when he wants to be. Sometimes he's a pain in the butt though!"

Nathan gave her a mock glare, "what? No way!"

"Babe, you know you like to annoy me. Last night you kept eating my Mac n cheese!"

Nathan laughed, "you're cute when you get mad."

"No one messes with me and Mac n cheese." Haley said definitely.

"See?" Nathan turned to the crowd. "Isn't she adorable?"

"You're both adorable!" Ellen concluded. "I can't believe you've his this for so long."

Nathan laughed softly, "I know. In a way it was good though. I don't regret it. I think it made us stronger. It was just Nathan and Haley. Not Nathan Scott, Laker player, and not Haley James, Americas sweet heart plus the rest of the world. It was just us and it was fun. But I'm glad we finally are public so this way I can kiss her whenever I want." He smirked, resulting in an eye roll from Haley.

"We saw pretty intense PDA last night from you two." Ellen stated with an encouraging grin.

Haley blushed deeply as Nathan flashed his signature smirk.

"I was excited! I couldn't help myself. Don't get used to it though." Haley lectured her boyfriend.

"Hey! I can't keep my hands off you. It's not my fault you're so irresistible." He grinned flirtatiously.

"My boyfriend, the charmer." Haley announced as the crowd screamed.

"You love it." Nathan persisted.

"Unfortunately." She joked.

Ellen basked in the couples playful banter. "So Nathan, how do you feel that Haley wrote this personal song about you?" She further inquired.

Nathan smiled proudly as she looked down at Haley. "I'm truly honored. It was honestly the nicest thing anyone has ever done for me. It's such an amazing song. Haley is so talented, and she's by far the best singer I've ever heard. I'm so happy the song has gained so much recognition because it's such a beautiful song and sometimes I have a hard time understanding she wrote it about me. I mean how many people get to say someone wrote a song about them? It doesn't happen much and I am unbelievably humbled by it. I'll never forget the first time I heard it. I haven't seen her in three months and I heard her voice and I swear my heart stopped. I was just so excited."

"Did you know it was about you?" Ellen asked.

Nathan scratched his head lightly. "I don't know. I think I hoped it was about me so that I knew I wasn't the only one who kept reveling in the night we met, you know? But then in the back of my mind I feared she met someone else, and I'd forever be stuck in the 'What if..' phase. Eventually, the more I listened to it though, it was pretty obvious it was about our encounter, and I just felt so happy." He revealed with a toothy smile as Haley's cheeks twinged a light shade of powder pink, then quietly squeezed their interlocked hands, followed by a sweet smile.

"So Haley, besides writing your feelings, did you intend for Nathan to hear the song?" Ellen inquired as she crossed her legs on her chair.

Haley beamed at the question while glancing at her boyfriend, "A part of me definitely wanted him to hear it just because we had no way of contacting each other. So I guess I wanted him to hear it and know that the night meant a lot to me, but then I was worried he might hear it and freak out, but I took a chance, and I'm glad I did. I never expected we'd find each other, I had only hoped." She gushed like a twelve year old fan girl.

Ellen smiled at the couple who were so obvious enamored by each other, and decided to delve deeper into their newly reported relationship status.

"Okay so now that we covered the big, important details, I want to know more about 'Naley'. Like the personal side." She smirked, and Haley laughed as she covered her mouth.

"Uh oh." Nathan chuckled as he threw his arm around Haley and gently squeezed her shoulder.

"So Nate, tell me what you absolutely love about Haley." Ellen inquired with a playful glint in her eyes.

Nathan looked down at Haley, and stared lovingly into her eyes, "Okay, but we might be here for a while." He chuckled, causing Haley to playfully smirk his way.

"I fell in love with the way her smile lit up the entire room, and the way her eyes light up. They're just do big, and whenever I look into them I get butterflies." Nathan revealed honestly.

Haley bit softly on her lip, attempting to suppress her squeal of excitement. The crowd went absolutely crazy.

"I love her kindness. Haley is the most compassionate person I know, and she would do anything for her fans, friends, and family. Her kindness is overwhelming sometimes. She makes me want to be a better person." Nathan shared as she leaned down and placed a soft kiss upon her cherry flavored lips.

He pulled away after Haley swooned, and chuckled to himself. "I also the love the way she kisses. Ugh, you have no idea what she does to me-" Nathan smirked, and Haley's jaw dropped as she punched him in the bicep.

"Damn baby, you don't want the paparazzi to think you abuse me, do you?" Nathan joked, as Haley fought off another smile.

"You guys. I can't even." Ellen gushed breathlessly. "You seem to have such a perfect relationship. You tease each other, but at the same time I can tell how committed you are, and how serious you are about each other. It's very rare to have that balance, so how do you do it?"

"It's easy." Haley smiled and absently mindedly ran her hands over his knee. "When you love someone everything just comes naturally. Yeah, I will be the first to admit, we are not perfect. We fight just like any other couple, but at the end of the day, I know what we have is extremely rare, and very special. I'd be stupid to let anything get between us." She shrugged girlishly, "I definitely believe the teasing and the flirty banter is really healthy, even though sometimes he drives me crazy because he knows how to get under my skin-"

"I love teasing her. She's so cute when she's mad." Nathan grinned.

Haley rolled her eyes, "And he's extremely cocky, but we balance each other out. I don't know how else to say it without sounding cheesy, but he's my soul mate. My best friend. We just have a strong connection."

"I can tell." Ellen winked. "The sexual tension bouncing off of you two is extremely palpable."

Haley hid her blush behind her palms, and Nathan ran his hand down her arm soothingly, letting out a loud laugh.

"So what's a typical day like for 'Naley?'" Ellen wanted to know.

"Hmm." Nathan thought about it for a second. "Well we don't live together, but somehow Haley always finds her way into my room, or vice versa. So usually we wake up, and I'll make her breakfast in bed or we sit out on my back porch and drink coffee. Then we go our separate ways for the day. I usually have practice, and she heads down to the studio. Sometimes if she's off and I have a game in a different state, she tags along, or if she has a show in another state, and I'm off, then I tag along with her. It didn't happen a lot since we tried to hide our relationship, but she tried to come to as many home games as she could. Then since we couldn't really go out to eat, we'd stay in and she'd cook dinner and we'd watch a movie. It was great in the beginning but then we started to become stir crazy since we wanted to go out to clubs and stuff, but I'm happy wherever as long as she's with me." Nathan confessed.

"Yeah, I'm excited to actually be able to take him places now and hold his hand." Haley giggled, and nudged Nathan slightly.

"Yeah, I agree."

"Okay so Haley said you guys fight like any other couple. What's a typical fight for you guys?" Ellen asked reluctantly.

Haley bit down on her lip, and Nathan cocked his jaw slightly sideways while taking a deep breath. "Well I'll be the first to admit that it's usually me who starts the fight because, yes, I like to tease Haley and sometimes I take it too far."

Haley chuckled and gave him an approving smile. "Good answer." She joked, then turned to Ellen, "No, but I'm not perfect either. I sometimes nag him and I get frustrated over stupid things. I think towards the end, our biggest fight was when we would decide to come public. He was eager and I was reluctant, and I know he wasn't happy about it, but he was understanding. Another reason why I love him." She gushed. "A huge foundation in having an amazing relationship is understanding. yeah, no one is perfect, but if you accept their flaws, and come to an understanding, then it'll make everything so much easier." Haley advised as Nathan nodded in agreement.

"That's great!" Ellen enthused, "So what's in store for you two?"

Nathan glanced down at Haley and gave her a wide smile, "Well I see myself with Haley for a very long time, but now that we announced our relationship, we're going to take it day by day because I'm sure it's going to be a media circus and neither of us are used to it. We're definitely going to have to adjust to the lifestyle, but I'm looking forward to facing it with Hales by my side." He replied truthfully as slowly leaned down and pressed a quick kiss upon Haley's cheek.

Haley smiled and agreed with Nathan. "I definitely see myself with Nathan for as long as possible. He's right though, we have to adjust to the 'public' now, but it shouldn't be a problem. I'm excited to see what life has in store for us. During his off season, we plan on traveling and just spending time together. And, I'll probably write more love songs about him since he's such an inspiration." She smiled pridefully as she ran her hand over his god like jaw.

"We do want to have some privacy, but don't worry, I'll make her my woman crush wednesday on Instagram so you can see what we are up to." Nathan shared with a boisterous smile.

"Yes! Please don't leave us in the dark. I'm going to need my Naley fix." Ellen pouted.

"Okay, don't worry, we'll keep you posted." Haley chuckled along with Nathan.

Ellen smiled, then quickly glanced at her watch, which turned her smile into a frown. "Well unfortunately that seems like all the time we have with Naley today," She announced, as the crowd stood up and cheered wildly.

" I think you guys just became America's favorite couple." Ellen chuckled as both Nathan and Haley stood up and waved to the crowd. "Thanks so much for coming! Stay in love, and congrats on your relationship. I wish you the best of luck." She advised with a playful smile, and hugged the couple goodbye.

Nathan and Haley thanked Ellen for having them, then shared a quick, sweet kiss for the cameras as they walked off set hand in hand.


Six months later…

Haley nervously paced the backstage of Walnut Creek Amphitheater in Raleigh, North Carolina. She was almost finished with touring the United States on her 'Enchanted' tour, and tonight was extremely special because Nathan would be there. His season had just started up for the LA Lakers, and he had a game in Charlotte last night, and luckily he had a day in between his next game in Florida, and was able to make it Haley's show. For most of the tour, he was with her, but just last month his season started again, and they hadn't seen each other in two weeks. Luckily technology was able to fill the gap, and they talked every time they had the chance. Once Haley finished her tour, she would try to go to as many of Nathan's games as she could.

"You're on in five minutes Haley!" Peyton called out as she walked over to her pacing best friend.

"Have you seen Nathan? He was supposed to be here an hour ago! I'm getting really worried-"

Peyton smiled reassuringly at Haley and placed her hands on Haley's shoulders to stop the pacing. "Hales, I'm sure his game just ran late. I bet he'll be here soon…"

"I don't know, he never texted me and I don't think I can do this show without him here-" Haley shouted frantically, as the screams from the crowd grew in decibels.

Peyton pursed her lips together and took a deep breath, "Okay Hales, please, you have to stay calm. You're on in one minute. I'll call Nathan when you're on your first song, and during an outfit change we can stall and I'm sure he'll be here by then. Now seriously, you have to hurry your cute little ass on stage because your fans are waiting-"

Haley gulped nervously and closed her eyes while inhaling deeply.

"Okay." She finally said as she heard her cue to make it up on stage. "Okay Peyton. Thank you!"

Peyton winked and playfully shoved Haley towards the stage as she ran out with her guitar and greeted the large screaming audience.

"How y'all doing tonight?" Haley screamed into the microphone followed by a wide smile. "I'm so excited to be here tonight! I have a feeling it's going to be amazing. Thanks so much for everyone who came out. I love you guys! Now the first song, I'm about to play is off my newest album 'Enchanted' and it's a song called 'Love Story' which is a combination of my love for Romeo and Juliet, as well as my boyfriend Nathan Scott." At the mention of his name, the girls in the audience shrieked loudly. She laughed and tried to fake her best smile. On the inside she was freaking out. Why the hell wasn't he here yet? She had waited so long to see him.

The crowd went wild as she started to play the intro to the song, taking a deep breath, closing her eyes, and feeling the anticipation course through her veins. This was normally one of Haley's favorite songs to play, but she just wanted Nathan to be here. He mentioned he loved this song as well, and she just wanted to sing it to him…

We were both young when I first saw you.

I close my eyes and the flashback starts:

I'm standing there on a balcony in summer air.

See the lights, see the party, the ball gowns.

See you make your way through the crowd

And say, "Hello, "

Little did I know...

That you were Romeo, you were throwing pebbles,

And my daddy said, "Stay away from Juliet"

And I was crying on the staircase

Begging you, "Please don't go"

And I said...

"Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone.

I'll be waiting; all that's left to do is run.

You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess,

It's a love story, baby, just say, 'Yes.'"

Meanwhile, Nathan ran through security and looked frantically for heard the song playing and the butterflies in his stomach danced wildly.

"Nathan! Hurry! She's playing the song! You don't have much time.." Peyton screamed over the loud cheers and pointed to the stage where Haley was dancing on stage singing into the microphone.

"I know! Shit! I'm sorry, I had to hide. I didn't want Haley to find me, and I almost forgot the r-" Nathan explained nervously as he ran his hand through his hair.

"Well do you have it now?" Peyton exclaimed with wide eyes.

"Yes! How do I look? Peyton I'm freaking out!" Nathan shouted.

"You're fine, just hurry!" She advised as she tried to straighten out Nathan's black tie.

Nathan started to shake with nerves. "Damn it! I need everything to be perfect." He muttered as he glanced over to the stage where his beautiful girlfriend was standing under the limelight singing her heart out. He couldn't help but smile. He was so proud of her.

Peyton noticed Nathan's trance and lightly shoved him, until he came back to reality. The chords were slowing down and he knew it was almost time to make his surprise entrance. Haley would freak out...

"Everything will be perfect, just go according to the plan. Good luck Nate." Peyton smiled cheekily

Nathan looked down and inhaled deeply. This was it. His heart hammered through his chest.

Glancing quickly at the crowd he gulped down the large ball of nerves residing in his throat. He was scared shitless.

Romeo, save me, they try to tell me how to feel.

This love is difficult but it's real.

Don't be afraid, we'll make it out of this mess.

It's a love story, baby, just say, 'Yes.'"

Oh, oh.

I got tired of waiting

Wondering if you were ever coming around.

My faith in you was fading

When I met you on the outskirts of town.

And I said...

Right before he was about to make his surprise entrance, Peyton quickly ran over to him and placed the small microphone attached to his ear.

"Go get your girl." She winked, and Nathan nodded as he took one last deep breath.

Haley noticed in the corner of her eye someone on the left side of the stage, hoping it was Nathan, she turned her head slightly, and couldn't help the boisterous smile that spread over her face as she saw him.

He gave her a quick wink, then without her realizing, he ran onto stage.

Haley's eyes widened, clearly not expecting him.

She was in the middle of singing, and the cheers were couldn't stop, considering she was currently singing the lyrics, but she wanted to ask what he was doing. Instead, her eyes stayed glue to his, as he beamed with confidence.

This was it.

"Romeo, save me, I've been feeling so alone.

I keep waiting for you but you never come.

Is this in my head? I don't know what to think."

Haley completely turned towards him and started to sing the lyrics, when suddenly, she noticed Nathan start to quietly sing along.

What was going on?
He smiled one more time at her and slowly lowered himself onto one knee, as she gasped on her words, and almost stopped singing.

So, Nathan's voice- not very good- boomed through his microphone as Haley let the words die on her lips and he completely took over. Yes, he sucked at singing, but he tried his best. He had a feeling Haley would love it. Plus, you can't expect a girl to sing while she's currently being proposed to.

Haley felt the tears rise in her eyes as she heard Nathan try his best to sing her lyrics.

He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring and said...

"Marry me, Juliet, you'll never have to be alone.

I love you, and that's all I really know.

I talked to your dad – go pick out a white dress

It's a love story, baby, just say, 'Yes.'"

As he sang the lyrics into the mouthpiece, he gently lowered himself onto his left knee, and quickly pulled out a tiny black box, opening it to reveal a diamond studded princess cut diamond.

He knew it was a ballsy move considering it was during a live performance in front of hundreds of thousands of people, but he took the chance because he felt it was perfect, and wanted it to be special for Haley. He wasn't afraid of getting rejected in front of thousands of people- no, he was confident Haley would say yes- he was scared about singing, because he had one chance and he didn't want to screw it up.

he hated singing, and he wasn't very good at it, but he had decided to take lessons when he knew he wanted to propose to Haley. He had this idea in his head for a while now, and he could not wait any longer.

The minute he heard the song, he knew he would have to propose to her with it.

Finally, the lyrics ended, but the guitars kept playing as the crowd went absolutely berserk. Haley stood there, completely still, with tears strolling down her cheeks, and her hands over her open mouth.

"Haley…" Nathan prompted with a reluctant smile. "I love you more than you will ever know, and I want to spend the rest of my life with you so we can live our Enchanted Love Story. So what do you say Haley James? Will you marry me?" He asked with a hopeful grin, as the crowd screamed shrilly.

Haley glanced down into Nathan's crystal blue eyes that were even brimming with tears, as she beamed with excitement.

"Yes! Yes! Yes! Oh my god, yes!, baby! Yes!" She cried happily as Nathan let out a sigh of relief and he slid the engagement ring onto her finger.

Haley beamed with joy, forgetting she was in front of thousands of people, and pulled Nathan up, kissing him with a fiery passion as she wrapped her arms around him.

"I love you so much!" She whispered into his ear, while looking longingly into his sparkling eyes.

"I love you more." He enthused as he placed a kiss on the tip of her nose.

"I can't believe this." She marveled as she gazed at her new ring. "You're perfect."

Nathan smiled and kissed her one last time before facing the audience who were still going wild with excitement.

"I'm getting married!" She screamed to the crowd with the biggest smile adjourned on her lips.

"How amazing is my fiance?" She asked with a loud giggle once the cheers grew louder. Nathan swore that if the cheers got louder, the windows of the place would shatter.

He smiled and picked her up, spinning her in his arms as she let out a playful squeal.

"How amazing is my girl?" He retaliated as the audience replied with more claps and screams.

He ran his hand slowly over her cheek and leaned down to kiss her softly one last time.

"Were you surprised?"

"yes!" She giggled girlishly and started to jump up and down like a child on Christmas morning.

"Eeeep! I'm engaged!" She repeated happily, as Nathan playfully slapped her bottom and gave her wink. "I didn't know you could sing." She smirked.

"I can't. That was one time, so I hope you enjoyed it." Nathan chuckled, as Haley and the rest of the crowd laughed in response.

"Aww baby! You were amazing." Haley reassured him with her dazzling smile, then turned towards the audience again. "Right guys? How amazing was my man?"

Once again, Nathan swore a window shattered somewhere. He had been to many arenas but he never heard screams that loud before.

"Well you're the star, go finish the show, Hales. I'll be waiting for you." Nathan encouraged with a large smile.

Haley smiled and shook her head. "Nuh uh, you're sitting right here, so I can sing to you." She advised and gently pulled Nathan over to a chair in the middle of the stage where he sat and watched with wide eyes.

Haley's band started up again, and she leaned down giving him one last hard kiss before winking and waving her ring finger at the crowd.

"Alright guys, this calls for a celebration." She announced and looked back at Nathan giving him one last smile. "I'm going to sing the song that started this whole journey. Nathan, I was enchanted to meet you!"

Nathan chuckled as he couldn't wipe the giant smile spread over his face.

Haley started the chorus of 'Enchanted' and he watched in awe as her diamond ring glittered in the light. For the entire night, neither of them were able to erase their smiles.

Whoever said Fairytales weren't real, was obviously wrong.


Finished!

I absolutely love Taylor Swift and the songs "Enchanted" and "Love Story" are my two favorites by her. I always wanted to be proposed to by the song "Love Story" and so I thought it fit perfectly for this piece.

I guess you can say this was the "Epilogue". There's really no place to go from here, so just leave it to your imaginations. In my mind, Naley would move back to Tree Hill, blah blah blah and have like Five Kids. So yeah, that's it! I hope you liked it. Thanks for all the kind words and support. I honestly would not be writing if it weren't for you guys (and Naley). So I owe you a lot, and if it means busting my ass to write fics, then so be it. Even if I only get one reader, as long as people enjoy my work that's all that matters to me.

On a sidenote, I just began my summer job and it takes up a lot of free time, but I'm not as busy as I was during the school year so don't worry, I am not giving up on my other stories. I apologize I have not updated them in a while, but I have not given up. I just need to reread them and get some motivation. And then I listen to music and new ideas pop up into my head and I write one shots instead because those are easier. I have one more idea for a one-shot that I want to start working on this week, and then after I finish that I'll update one of my chapter fics.

And then I had an idea that since I'm obsessed with music, I would make like music inspired Naley one-shots but like instead of individual ones, just make them as updates. I'm pretty sure someone else did something like that and I thought it was a great idea, but I don't know if I will do that. I'm just always inspired by bringing Naley to life into the songs.

Okay I'm done ranting.

Thanks for reading! Hope you liked it.
