Nathan was shocked, what was Allison doing here? He clenched his fists as memories of her betrayal flooded his system.

Before he could say anything, Allison staggered in. She reeked of alcohol.

"Hey, Nathan!"She said almost loudly jumping on his bed.

"What are you doing in LA?"Nathan asked calmly, disgusted at the sight of her and the fact that she could face him after the way she cheated on him.

Allison smiled at him then smirked "I...I'm here to a…apologize to… you Nathan.” She stammered. “I was wrong! I was a bitch for cheating on you" she added taking off her jacket.

"Did you drink??"Nathan asked her as he stood at a respectable distance from her.

"No, silly… I didn't"She replied with a smile.

Nathan sighed, resting on the shelf by the door.

Allison started taking off her accessories,her necklace, Nathan had to stop her when she was about to take her blouse off.

"What are you doing, Allison??" Nathan snapped holding her hand down.

"I don't know."She replied smiling mischievously.
