Nate grumpily got ready for the weekend trip. He had no desire to go hang out with a bunch of stupid high school kids. Why the hell did he agree to this again?

Oh yeah, that’s right. The words slipped right out of his mouth when he heard Ryan coming along to the trip. He was just trying to be a good friend. He couldn’t possibly let her be alone with a boy in some remote cabin even though she is dating that boy.

Pfft…dating, he thought. Such a pointless thing. It’s not like Nate never craved a company of a woman before. But when he did, he simply made a booty call to the girls who were desperate and called it a night. He had no desire to date anyone.

He went to pick up Amelia. She was waiting for him by the door. She smiled brightly as she saw him coming. His heart did a little flip when he saw her smile, but he didn’t smile back.

“So tell me again, why

    “Can I help you?” Nate asked gruffly.“You like her, don’t you?” Alex asked.“Who, Amanda? No, not really,” Nate replied. “Why is everyone keep asking me about that?”“I was talking about Amelia. I saw the way you were looking at her when she was snuggling with Ryan,” Alex said and smirked. “You looked jealous. And don’t try to deny it because I know what you look like when you are jealous.”“I bet you do, asshole. What’s it to you anyway? And why are you talking to me?” Nate retorted.“Oh, come on! How long are you going to keep up this act, brother? You can’t stay mad at me forever. Why can’t we go back to the way we were?” Alex pouted.“That’s where you are wrong, ‘brother,’ you took somethi

    “Well, now you know my secret, so it’s your turn to tell me about you and Alex,” she said and broke the hug.“Ah…right. Alex and I weren’t always like this. We were very close. We are twins after all,” Nate paused. “We used to do everything together. We had the same friends. Well, they were mostly introduced to me by him because he was a social butterfly. I barely talked to anyone. I was anyways the quiet kid,” Nate stopped. His voice was turning grim.“What happened between you guys?” Amelia asked, encouraging him to go on.“Well, in our freshman year, I got a girlfriend. Her name was Destiny. Even though I wasn’t as outgoing as Alex, girls liked me. They always go after the dark and mysterious types,” Nate smirked.Amelia rolled her eyes. “Go on,” she said.“Des

    “Wow,” Amelia said after hearing Nate finished his story. “No wonder you hate him so much. He sounds like a horrible brother.”“Yeap, fuck him,” Nate scoffed.“So….the girl in the picture in your room, is that Destiny? Why do you still keep her picture?” she asked.“Yes, I guess I should’ve burned that picture,” he laughed bitterly.“You still love her, don’t you?” Amelia said quietly.“I don’t know… I want to think that I hate her. Love caused nothing but pain to me,” he said and looked away.Amelia touched his hand. She half expected him to brush it away, but he didn’t move an inch. He felt her shiver all of a sudden.“You are cold,” he said when he felt her tremble. He held her hand

    Amanda was lying on his bed wearing nothing but a skimpy nightshirt. She gave him a seductive smile.“What are you doing here?” Nate asked.“Just came to see if you needed some company,” she said.“What I need is some good night’s sleep, so you should leave,” he said, clearly annoyed at her intrusion.Amanda got up and wrapped her arms around him. “Come on, Nate, I’ve always had a crush on you. Alex and I have always been good friends, but you, you are a mystery to me,” she said.“And I’d like it to remain that way,” he said.“I can’t stop thinking about that kissed we shared,” she whispered.“It was for a stupid game. It didn’t mean anything,” He said.“Maybe I should remind

    “So, I heard you and Amanda hooked up last night,” Ryan asked as he stared at the lake.“Oh, you did? Congratulations,” Amelia said quietly before Nate could deny it.“Um…nothing happened between us. I sent her back to her room and told her I wasn’t interested,” Nate said, his eyes never leaving Amelia’s face. He couldn’t read her expression.“That’s not what I heard. Max told me he heard noises coming from inside your room and saw Amanda leaving your room late at night,” Ryan insisted.“Why are you and Max gossiping like a bunch of middle school girls? We may have done other things, but I didn’t sleep with her,” Nate said.“Oh, other things? What kind of things?” Ryan asked and smirked.“None of your damn business. The point is

    Amelia was sitting at the bench where she and Nate were sitting the previous night. She wasn’t feeling good, so she wanted to be alone for a minute. She looked up as she felt someone else’s presence behind her.“Hey Alex,” she said and smiled despite feeling nothing but contempt for him.“You know, most new people in our school can’t tell the difference between Nate and me, but you are pretty good,” he said.“You guys are nothing alike besides having the same face. Besides, I just saw Nate, and he was wearing a different outfit,” Amelia shrugged.“True, I am much nicer and better looking,” he grinned.She chuckled. “I beg to differ.”“Oh really? Say, Amelia, you have a little thing for Nate?” he asked.“I don’t know&h

    Nate went back to his room, feeling angry at himself. What was he thinking about kissing her impulsively? And why did he have to go and tell her it was a mistake. It must’ve hurt her feelings, and that was the last thing he wanted.He couldn’t imagine what she might be thinking right now. He knew for a fact that he wasn’t entirely over Destiny, so it was unfair for him to confuse Amelia like that. He couldn’t give her his heart since it was already broken.A knock on the door snapped him back to reality. “Who is it?” he asked in an annoyed tone. He was in no mood for company right now.“Open the door, Nate,” Amelia spoke from the other side.He wasn’t expecting her. He figured he would be the last person she would want to see after that kiss. He opened the door and let her in.“Um… what’s up?&

    Amelia stared at the hard muscles that were hidden under his clothes. Her heated eyes were overwhelmed with intense desire. She wanted that body against her right now.“Regret? I doubt it,” she smiled.“You are so infuriating,” he said and softly bit her neck.She moaned. “And you are driving me crazy by trying to resist me. You are a hormonal teenage boy. Live a little,” she giggled.“Are you sure this is your first time? I’ve never met a virgin who was so aggressive about wanting to have sex. Aren’t you scared I’ll hurt you?” Nate asked.“How many virgins have you had?” Amelia squinted at him.“I asked you first,” Nate laughed.“I am not scared. I trust you,” she said quietly. “You won’t hurt me,”

    “No,” Nate said.His facial expression was cold and hard. It was the face of a cruel, ruthless beast whose heart was made of stone. At least that’s what he made himself believe. But Amelia didn’t look scared. Not even a little.“Pleaaase?” she made her signature ‘I am cute and innocent’ face that melted his heart every single time.“Goddammit,” Nate muttered under his breath. Be strong, Nate, don’t let her get to you, he thought.“I said no, Amelia, now beat it!” he growled.“But…baby…I love you…” she whimpered and stared at him with those big brown eyes.“JESUS! Fine, I’ll wear the damn sweater,” he grumbled and put the sweater on. It was very bright and colorful. Not to mention completely hideou

    “NATE!” Amelia screamed and ran toward Nate.“Jesus, are you trying to damage my hearing permanently?” Nate scowled.“Oh my god, what happened to your face? You are bleeding!” Amelia gasped. Tears started to stream down her cheeks.Nate’s eyes softened. “Hey, stop crying. I am okay, I swear,” Nate pulled her into an embrace.“What do you mean you are okay? You are hurt, you stupidhead!” Amelia sobbed harder.Nate couldn’t help but laugh. He tightened his hug. “Shh…I am going to be fine. It’s over now,” he comforted her.“Hey man, we are glad you made it alive,” Ryan said and patted him on the back.“Thanks, Ryan. And I am sorry for being a jerk to you all the time,” Nate said. “I don’t r

    Nate woke up alone in an unfamiliar room. It was cold and dark and smelled of Mildew. There was no other furniture in the room besides a bed. His hands and legs were tied together with thick zip ties. What the hell was going on?He remembered being at the Prom with Amelia, dancing the night away. Then the power outage happened. Someone must’ve kidnapped him when it was dark.Fuck…he thought. He hoped Amelia was okay. If something happened to her, he would raise hell.“Oh, look who is finally awake?” A deep voice spoke.A man in a mask stood in front of him, holding a gun in his hand. “Sleepytime is over, pretty boy,” he remarked.“Fuck you,” Nate barked.“Ah, still feisty despite his situation, huh. Look, kid, I don’t want to hurt you, but I need you to cooperate,” the man sa

    Nate held Amelia close to his chest and swayed with the music. She was right. He ended up having fun after they arrived at the Prom.It’s because I am here with her, he thought. Even Ryan became tolerable after a while.“I didn’t know you were such an amazing dancer,” Nate said. He was truly surprised at how gracefully she moved to the dance floor. This girl was full of surprises.“There’s a lot you don’t know about me, mister,” she smirked.Nate leaned over to kiss her, then all of a sudden, the lights turned off, and it was pitch dark in the auditorium. He heard a few gasps coming from the students, and they started to chatter among themselves loudly.“Everyone, just stay calm and stop moving about!” One of the teachers yelled through the noise. “We are going to find out what is going on,

    “So, what happens now?” Amelia asked.“Alex and I decided to give her a chance to make amends to us since we know how ruthless our father was. But as soon as she mentions anything about money, she is out. We still can’t trust her fully.” Nate said.“I understand completely,” Amelia nodded.“I am sorry you’ve been through so much, Nate,” she said and stroked his arm gently.“Me? You almost died. I would think you had it worse,” he said.“But you suffered your whole life! I at least had people who loved me and cared for me,” she said sadly.“It doesn’t matter anymore. I have you now,” he smiled. “Thank you for never stop being a parasite,” he smirked.“Stop it! I am not!” Amelia exclaimed. &ldquo

    Alex was angry about his mother coming back, just as Nate predicted.“Not a fucking chance in hell!” he growled on the other line. ”That bitch never cared about us. She just wants our money,” he added.“I feel the same way,” Nate said.“Then why are you giving her the chance to speak to us?” Alex demanded to know.“Because I want to give her a chance to explain,” Nate said.“Sucker…” Alex grumbled.“Look, if you don’t want to meet her, that’s up to you. But I am doing it,” Nate was annoyed.“No, I don’t want you to face her alone. I’ll be there,” Alex said and hung up the phone.Nate sighed. As much as he disliked his brother

    Nate took Amelia to visit his grandmother and see how she was holding up about his father’s death. His 85 years old grandmother Meredith was the closest family member he had. His own mother didn’t care about him or Alex, but Meredith was always there for the two of them.Meredith smiled when she saw them approaching.“Nana!” Nate yelled and ran to his grandma to hug her. “I’ve missed you,” he said.“I missed you too, sweet boy,” Meredith said and patted him on the back. “And who is this lovely girl with you?” she asked.“This is Amelia, my girlfriend,” Nate said shyly.“Ah, look at you. Such a beautiful girl. My Nate has good taste,” Meredith smiled.Amelia blushed. She could sense his grandmother was someone special to Nate. Meredith didn’t seem

    The next day, Nate prepared for what’s to come. He knew as soon as his dad dies, things would get more complicated. As the next of kin, Nate and Alex are expected to take over his business. This means Nate was expected to join the Mafia alongside Alex. But that wasn’t part of Nate’s plan. He couldn’t let that happen. He promised Amelia that he’d stay away.He went to meet with Alex and Roz, his father’s right-hand man, at the den. His father’s lawyer was supposed to be there for the Will reading as well.“There you are, Nate,” Roz said as soon as he entered the room. “He is going to go through the will now,” he added and motioned to the lawyer.Alex was sitting on the couch with a grim expression on his face. Nate flopped down next to him without saying another word.“Alright then. Let’s begin,” the lawyer

    Nate came directly to her house and knocked on her door. She was surprised at his sudden visit at first, but when she saw how his face looked, she knew something was wrong. She didn’t ask him any questions and sat there with him on the couch, waiting for him to say something.“My father, he…he is dead,” Nate said flatly.Amelia gasped and immediately held his hand. “What? How did that happen?”“They say it was a heart attack. I found him sitting on the couch, already dead,” Nate shook his head.“Oh my god, Nate, I am so sorry. I can’t believe your father passed away so suddenly!” Amelia exclaimed and hugged him. “Are you okay?”“It’s okay. I am okay. I am just in a shock,” he said.“I understand. What about Alex? Does he know?” she as
