"You have a lot of explaining to do, Nate Bailey Tatum. Where have you been all night? I’ve been calling you and ssaging you and....well, what do you have to say for yourself?" I almost laughed at how paternal Patrick sounded in that mont.
"I’m sorry" I said "A lot of stuff happened yesterday and I ended up staying at work and I couldn’t call you" I heard him huff on the other line "I really am sorry Patty"
"Yeah yeah it’s okay" he said with a sigh "Just don’t do it again, Nate. I really was worried"
"I’ll make you your favorite dinner to make it up to you" I said grinning knowing he couldn’t resist that "See you tonight Pat" I hung up laughing at his grumbling at the other end/
"well that’s sothing I could get used to hearing" Adrian said leaning against the door fra "I haven’t heard you genuinely laugh in a long ti although it wasn’t because of . I’ll take what I can get" He pulled away from the door fra and walked towards , wrapping his arms around my waist and pulling to him as soon as I was in reach. He grabbed my face gently and kissed lovingly, slowly. "I’m starting to get addicted to this"
"We haven’t even been together for a day"
"Then you’re in for a very long ride because I don’t think this addiction is going anywhere" he kissed again and of course I didn’t deny him. I actually found that I loved kissing him so I really didn’t mind when he did it. "okay, let’s stop before Lily kills . Co on the gas are about to start"
"Gas?"
Adrian grinned at as he led out of the room "Told you the twins have sothing planned"
*****
Adrian’s P.O.V.
"Is everything good to go?" I asked as I glanced at where Nate was sitting with the Jim, Lily, Ethan, and the others.
"yeah" Dave said looking over our backyard. "We did our best in the short amount of ti you gave but I think I did good. What’s all this about anyway"
I sighed and ran a hand through my hair "Look from what Nate told years ago and what I know now. I realised Nate didn’t have much of a childhood, she was always with her brother and she didn’t mind. I just wanted her to have so fun because all she thinks about are her responsibilities"
Dave grinned and shook his head "D’aww isn’t Adriany wasey such a romantic" he said and tried to pinch my cheeks but I maneuvered away and glared at him.
"Just make sure today is all about fun. She deserves it"
******
Nate’s P.O.V.
I watched Adrian as he was talking to Dave and suppressed a smile, I loved being with him and I couldn’t lieve soone like him could ever want soone like but he did and even though I knew it would end I was going to enjoy it until it lasted.
I felt soone throw their arm around my shoulders and looked to see it was Lily. She grinned at "You know what that is?" She said nodding towards Adrian and I shook my head "That is a man who won’t tke no for an answer" she winked at
"He doesn’t have to take no for an answer" I said looking back at Adrian "At lease, not anymore"
"Does that an what I think it ans? " Lily asked grinning and I nodded. Suddenly I was pulled into a hug "You have no idea how much of a relief that is" she pulled away and looked toward Adrian "He’s been unhappy for so long, don’t break his heart Nate. He’s like a brother to "
I stared shocked at her "I wouldn’t break his heart" that wasn’t even possible, but I didn’t tell her that it was guaranteed he was going to break mine.
"Ladies and gentlen" a loud voice bood through the whole backyard and I looked up to see the twins standing with a bull horn in their hand
"Oh god how did they find that" Jacob said stepping beside us "And why are they carrying empty potato sacks?"
"It’s ti for the Competition" The twins yelled through the bull horn "The first contest is the potato sack race"
"Oh boy" Xavier said slapping his forehead "Not that again."
I felt soone wrap their arms around my waist from behind and knew it was Adrian. I smiled as I turned my head to look at him and he pecked my lips.
"Okay now we divided the teams" Dave said as he and his brother walked towards us "Lily, Ren, Jacob and Nate and Keith against Ethan, and Jim, Xavier and Adrian. Teams gather around and decide who will be your contestant in the potato sack race. Oh and there’s a rule; couples aren’t allowed to compete against each other. we don’t want pity wins"
"Fine we’ll play your ga" Xavier said "But the winning team gets the other team to do anything they want"
"Deal"
The teams devided and the race started, our team had chosen Keith and the other team chose Jim. Sadly, Jim won the race and the second race which consisted of tying two people’s right and left legs to each other the twins participated in that and Jacob and Ren from our team but again the twins won, which I thought wasn’t fair considering those two were twins and completely coordinated in every way.
Now it was ti for archery, a target was set up and Lily from our team and Adrian from the other team stood in front of us.
"This is going to be easy" Lily teased sending a wink at Adrian "You ready to lose Adrian?"
"Arrogance isn’t a good trait Lily"
