Nate nodded. His eyes were full of sadness. He told Amelia everything about him. He was tired of keeping secrets from everyone, and it was time, he told someone. Part of him was afraid that she would be disgusted to hear about his criminal family but didn’t want to hide it from her.
“Alex happily embraced the life of crimes, but I never could. It was a punishment for me,” he said.
“I am so sorry you have to endure so much because of your family,” Amelia hugged him and buried her face on his chest. “Have you ever thought of running away?”
“All the time, but I am not dumb. I knew I wouldn’t go too far, and my father will eventually

He never asked his father for anything before, so he hoped he would pity him just this once.“Dad, I need your help,” Nate said, his voice was shaking with fear.“Nate, what the hell? Do you know what time it is?” his father Robert said in an annoyed tone.“Dad, please…this is serious,” Nate said desperately.

She was going to be okay. He didn’t have to spend the rest of his life alone. Amelia will be right there beside him, smiling like she always does.After a few minutes, he went to see her.

“Um…Jeremy, this is my boyfriend Nate,” Amelia giggled nervously.“A boyfriend? Since when do you have a boyfriend?” Jeremy squinted his eyes at them.“Since now,” Nate said. “It’s nice to meet you,” he said.Jeremy stared at him for a moment. His face twisted into a frown. “I am not sure if I like you, Nate,” he declared.“Jeremy!” Amelia protested.“I can already sense what kind of person you are by how you look. And, I don’t trust the rich pretty boy type like you around my sister,” Jeremy concluded.“You don’t know shit about me,” Nate snarled.Amelia can already sense the hostility growing between them, and it was making her uncomfortable.

You know you’d have to let me go eventually when the bell rings, right?” Amelia said and giggled when he nuzzled her neck.“There are few more minutes left before the bell, so I am not letting you go until then,” Nate said.“Get a room, you two!” Ryan screamed from across the hall.Nate casually flipped him off and turned his attention back to Amelia. Amelia’s facial expression turned serious all of a sudden.“So…I need to talk to you about something very important,” she said.“Huh? What’s that?” Nate asked.“I need to talk to you about Prom!” she beamed.“Oh, lame,” Nate said.

“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!

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.

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.

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
