"Look I-" He stopped when he looked at and we stared at each other. He was looking at in awe and happiness that made feel important. It was like the world around us disappeared as we stared at each other. After a while of silence he cleared his throat.
"I’m...Uh...Adrian Morgan" He offered his hand. I didn’t want to tell him my real na, what if our parents were friends and he tells them I jumped in front of his car? I’d never hear the end of it with my parents
"Anne, Anne Terrace" I took his hand and gasped as what seed like an electric shock surged through my body. I pulled my hand away and looked up at him to see him smiling at ."
"So" he said leaning back in his seat "What was step two of your plan of running from a boring party?"
"I-" I cleared my throat "I don’t know. I didn’t really think it through"
"Well you wanna have fun?"
"Yeah" I said a bit hesitantly "Why?"
"Let’s make this a night you never forget Anne" He said and even though I should have been scared, I an I didn’t know the guy but I didn’t and it scared . After Luke I swore never to be with any guy, never to lose control. Yet with Adrian, I wanted to.
"What do you have in mind?"
He grinned at "Oh you’ll see" He turned on the car and drove forward and sohow I was sure, the night was going to be unforgettable.
======================
Nate’s P.O.V
"I’m late" I said throwing a jacket over my shirt "I’m so late"
"Calm down" Patrick said as he tried to turn on the tv using the remote "Don’t tell this thing doesn’t work"
"You have to hit the TV a couple of tis and then manually change the channels" I said putting on my shoes "If you find one good channel that is"
"Right" Patrick said standing up "So what’s this job again?"
"Baby siting"
"In a house filled with people?"
I shrugged, Lily had explained that their parents used to live that way a long ti ago and it just stuck with them, even if they’re no relate "Yups"
"You now you’re acting more nervous than you should be" he said frowning "Of course it has nothing to do with why you freaked out three days ago would it?"
"Of course not"
"Still not ready huh?" Patrick said "Well, I’m a patient man Nate but you will tell sooner or later." With a grin "I always find out in the end, you know. Oh and thanks for cleaning my apartnt, don’t think I didn’t notice" he smiled "You really didn’t have to do that"
"I don’t know what you’re talking about" I lied and he chuckled before saying thank you again and headed to the door
I rolled my eyes as he closed the door and then sighed and looked at the clock "Shoot I’m really late" Just as I was about to head out the phone rang and I hesitated before answering
"Hello?"
"So it really is you" A familiar voice made freeze "I thought I’d have the wrong number. How are you Nate?"
"I thought I said I never wanted to hear from you ever again Luke" I said cursing myself for the voice my voice ca out, shaky
"Co on Nate. It’s okay, I forgive you I’m sure you have so sense now and I’ll co back to you"
I felt my blood boil Leave it to Luke to act as if he was doing a favor by coming back to
"Let’s get one thing clear Luke. I want nothing to do with you ever again" without waiting for an answer I slamd the phone shut. I noticed I was shivering and took a deep breath, my hand flat on the table. Unconsciously my free hand reached for my wrist, fingering the scar. I was such an idiot to love him, to fall for him
"I think our parents were right about this" Luke said as we sat on the lawn in his front yard. "I can imagine being married to when we’re eighteen"
I smiled as I laid my head on his chest my first ’date’ with Luke had been eight months ago and he was nice, funny and charming and we got closer as the months went by
"I can imagine being married to you too" I said "My parents finally did sothing right" I looked at my watch and started to get up "I have to go to Gabriel okay?"
"I don’t know why you bother" Luke said getting up after "he has like four nurses with him"
"I want to" I said sighing at our usual argunt "He’s my brother and I love spending ti with him plus I don’t trust anyone around him"
"it’s stupid Nate. Rember when I said you needed soone to tell you when your being stupid? Now is the ti"
I felt the tears build up but pushed them back, at least he was honest as to when I was stupid but with Gabriel he was wrong "This isn’t up for discussion Luke I’m sorry"
