“Run love, I’m the truth you’re afraid of...” Natalie was quiet. How could she tell someone something which she still didn't want to accept? The memories resurfaced and it felt like they didn't happen years ago but just yesterday like they were still fresh. Adrian was still staring at her waiting for her to speak. But it was like she couldn't get the words out... "Talk to me." He rubbed his hand up and down her back. She looked in his eye afraid she would judge her but they just held concern for her. Like he wanted to take away the pain. She closed her eyes and took a breath. “Just try to let out once” Just try... She opened her eyes and that stoic look came back again as if it was a mask to fool herself that she was okay, that she was strong enough to say it. "One day I went to his house to take Gail's stuff, then his mother came." Natalie was staring out of the window, lost. Her tone was blank like she was too numb to feel what she was saying. But deep down it killed her so
"Some chapters just don't end so soon." Isaac opened the door and Natalie stepped. Isaac saw her eyes looked a little swollen and he was on high alert mode. "What—" "Where's Thomas?" "He has slept already" Natalie nodded. "And dad?" Isaac was just about to open his mouth when someone else spoke in a cold tone making them turn around to the source. "I'm right here." And just as Natalie predicted with one look at her face and he stormed towards her, worry clear in his eyes. He stood in front of her and looked out for any injuries. Then his eyes went to her bandaged hand. He held it up, and Isaac also came forward to examine it wondering how he missed it earlier. "What happened?" He asked in a serious tone, ready to go out to kill someone. "I accidentally hurt my hand on my phone." Dimitri looked like he wasn't gonna believe her so she took out her new phone. When she was sleeping Adrian had already replaced her phone. "I had to get a new one" Her eyes were a bit swollen bu
“A person you love is not supposed to be the missing piece of you rather he will help you find it to complete you.”Natalie came back to her room and found Dimitri standing by the window thinking over something deeply while Isaac was sitting on a chair tapping his foot on the ground impatiently. Seeing Natalie at the door he got up. He had a list of things to say to her."I hope you know that I don't like it when you hide things, especially which hurt you. I forgive you for this one but just make sure you tell me next time. Take that as a pact between us.”Natalie nodded with a gentle smile on her face. “Sorry.”He patted her head gently in response making her chuckle.Dimitri turned to look at them too. Their bond was even stronger than blood-related brother and sister. He smiled knowing they both had each other’s great support without realizing it.“Natalie” hearing Dimitri call her out they turned to him. With a warm tone, he continued, “I know you are worried about Thomas. But I've
“How can your love do something that no one else can....”Natalie walked out of her room, all ready to go to college. Dimitri was at the dining table, drinking tea as he read the news and Isaac was stuffing his mouth with food. Dimitri once in a while threw him a judgment look at how he ate but Isaac didn’t have any care for the world. Natalie smiled knowing this was actually the way they showed their love to each other. They would never say it, but Isaac only tested his limits because he knew he could. After all, Dimitri won't say anything to him. He indirectly felt the love he had for him and the same with Dimitri, Isaac didn't even bother to even talk to anyone except for him and Natalie. His trust in them alone told him he loved them to death. Natalie went near Thomas who was eyeing the two adults with a narrowed gaze. Why are they like this?“Don’t even think about it,” Natalie whispered to him as she sat down next to him. Thomas smiled at her and kissing her cheek mumbled, “goo
“It's the beat that my heart skips when I’m with you..”A few days passed by, and Adrian and Natalie’s relationship was running smoothly. He even once climbed into her room through the window just to see her since with Isaac here they couldn’t spend much time together apart from in college.Speaking of college Isabelle didn’t even dare show her face to Natalie or Adrian anymore. She kept her distance, despite not wanting to admit it she was smart enough to realize both Natalie and Adrian were just some students you could mess with. They held some power in their eyes alone, that could break their enemy with their stare alone.Tyler too respectfully kept his distance, he still didn't like seeing Adrian’s face though. He would only show up sometimes when Amanda was with Natalie who had no idea of the situation. Natalie did tell Amanda about Adrian to which she replied, ‘you both do look scary when you’re angry’ making Natalie chuckle heartily.Greyson just disappeared a few weeks ago. He
"Putting you first was not a choice but a wish I wanted to fulfill..."Natalie woke up when she felt the bus coming to a stop. Her head was resting on his shoulder. She looked up and saw Adrian leaning his head back on the headrest. His eyes closed but she could tell he was not sleeping.He was holding her hand, their intertwined hands perched in his lap. She didn’t move her head and rather leaned closer letting out a content sigh closing her eyes again. Adrian opened his eyes slowly and moved his other hand to tuck the loose strands of hair behind her ear.He looked outside the window and saw they had stopped for the students to get refreshments and snacks. He looked down at Natalie."Do you want something?""No, I'm good."Natalie looked up at him still resting her head on his shoulder, he nodded but his heart was thumping as she looked up at him with those honey-colored eyes shining brightly at him in the sun. He was sure she could hear it too. He couldn't help but want to touch her
“Their love was poetry full of passion...” Natalie and Adrian got ready to visit around. Today according to their schedule they had to go to a museum during the daytime and then after lunch to the beach. Natalie and Adrian had better ideas so they went to a shooting range instead. It had been a long time since they had practice shooting.Natalie was loading the guns as she stood at her place ready to shoot. Adrian was standing next to her leaning against the wall with his hands crossed on his chest as he looked at her, but he was not as interested in shooting as Natalie was. This was her idea and he only agreed because they would be alone at least.Natalie held the gun up to her eye level and in just a few seconds she shot all the targets right at the center easily. She turned to Adrian nodding her head to the target board to take his turn. He sighed and took the gun from her. Pointing at the targets carelessly he then started shooting. He was hitting all his targets easily just like
“There are a lot of empty boxes you will find before getting to the truth.” After finishing their own tour around the town, Natalie and Adrian went to the beach with the other students as per their schedule. They went to a small restaurant near the beach and sat o their table with a beautiful view of the seashore. They were eating silently but then Adrian remembered about the news he got before. "I had people searching about that incident and exactly planned it. So far they found it was not some other mafia gang but someone from ours only.." Natalie furrowed her eyebrows as she thought who could it be in the gang to be benefitted from all the hatred? No one, unless the motive was someone else and this was just a cover to hide. But she didn't say anything to Adrian, she needed to know more. She mentally noted to know more about this later. "There is always another mystery to solve the more we think we finally got something." "Yeah let's not talk about that. We will have a
