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
“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
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,
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!” 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
“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 Wolf is a seventeen years old high school junior who preferred to be alone. His intimidating demeanor and bad attitude were more than enough to drive people away from him. All he had to do was to glare at people with his piercing blue eyes, and they all cowered away. He was also 6 feet 4 and worked out regularly, which made him look even more intimidating. Rumors about him being the son of a Mafia leader circulated the school. No one wanted to find out what it would be like to get beat up by him. He had it made.He didn’t exactly go around beating up kids and stealing kids’ money, but he did almost beat someone up for sitting at his table. He didn’t care what people thought of him, and he enjoyed being feared.It was the first week of school. He sat down at his usual table during lunch and took a bite out of his sandwich. All of a sudden, a sweet smell of perfume hit his nostril, so he looked up from his sandwich
Nate sat in his class with a scowl. He was still annoyed about meeting that stupid girl. She is lucky that he would never mess with girls, or she would’ve ended up with some broken bones for crossing him. The door opened, so he looked up.You’ve got to be shitting me, Nate thought. It was her. Now he has to be in the same class with her too?“Oh look, it’s my new friend Nate,” Amelia said with a big smile that irritated him even more.“I’m not your fucking friend,” he said and furrowed his eyebrows.“You know, it won’t hurt you to be nicer to me. I may become a very valuable friend if you give me a chance,” she said.“I don’t think so. Now stop talking to me,” he snarled.Amelia stared at him intently for a minute but didn’t say anything. She t
Nate looked at the slab of clay in confusion.“What are we doing with that?” he asked.“Well, I will be creating a model of a Lily flower, and you will write down the names of the different parts,” she said.“Thrilling,” Nate rolled his eyes.He opened the book and started to write down the information while Amelia worked with the clay. After watching her for a few minutes, he couldn’t help but admire her crafting skills. She looked focused and determined to get things perfect.“I think that’s good enough for now,” she said after 40 minutes. “We can pick this up tomorrow since the project is not due till later this week.”“Great, I’ve had enough myself. So, I’m going to go. Peace out.” Nate said and stood up to leave.&ldqu
