Don't Let Go - Nathan Sykes Fanfiction

Chapter 11 - A Memory At Chapman Square

I woke up the next morning to hear the birds tweeting away and Tom and Max in the kitchen singing some of their new material. I thought everyone would be busy cleaning after the party but management probably took care of that, if they knew what we were like.

I yawned, streched and rolled out of bed and threw my hair up in a bun since it was such a mess. I still had mascara all over my cheeks and complete panda eyes. As I looked in my mirror, opposite the window their was a certain reflection. I knew instantly what it was and I felt a tear roll down my cheek.

It was only around ten past nine in the morning but from what I saw it must have been later. Nathan was outside on the gravel snogging who I guess must have been 'Ellie'. I walked over to the window and watched him kiss her. Memories flooded my head of me and Nathan. The dates we secretly went on, the nights we'd spend together and all the fun we once had. At least he didn't have to hide anything now. But I just wanted to know what I had done for us to split. Even though he didn't seem to look to interested in kissing her. The more she went in, he pulled back and placed his hands around her waist.

"I'll alway love you, Jenny."

"I'll always love you too Nathan, now come on!" I yelled and took Nathan's hand. We were running along the beach as the sun was setting. The beach was quiet and empty even for the summer.

We soon reached the harbour and at the port was a rather large boat. It was white with the words 'Love Is A Mistery' on it.

I walked up to it, looking at it in awe. "Wow, look at this Nathan." He turned around and smiled.

"No, no way. Really?" He nodded. He took my hand and pulled me in for a kiss. We walked along the bridge and on to the deck of the boat. I started to cry a little.

"You did this, for me?" "Of course," he replied. He walked me over to the end of the boat where a picnic had been layed out. I smiled and hugged Nathan.

"No one has ever done something like this for me before."

"Well I love you so I thought I'd needed to do something for you." 

We stayed on the boat for hours, talking about our lives. I told him about where I used to live with my family, Chapman Square. He seemed so interested in my life and he knew I was about his. I'd finally found the perfect man, my perfect life. I just prayed I still had my mum to talk to whenever I was down. "Sometimes, sometimes I sit alone and cry to my mum in heaven. I so badly want to talk to her about everything. All I know is she can hear me but not reply." I burst into tears as the boat floated along the water. I chocked in tears, and feeling quesy by the sea. Nathan pulled me in for a hug and I sobbed on his shirt. 

I needed to go back home to Chapman Square and collect all my final belongings.

Ellie looked so familiar. I'm sure she was famous. But no, Nathan would have mentioned. I looked closely at her face. That's when it clicked. We went to drama school together. Ellie Anders.

I guess I'd stayed looking out of the window for too long as Ellie caught me staring out of the window, with me in my dressing gown, and make - up all over face. She stopped kissing Nathan and tapped him on the shoulder, causing him to turn to look at me. I ducked beneath the windowsill  before he could catch sight of me. As I did, I managed to whack my head on the windowsill, knocking myself out.

The next thing I knew, I was lying back in my bed, flannel on my forehead and all the boys, except Nathan, surrounding my bed. I winced in pain as a huge red lump has appeared on my head. The bright light from outside shone in my eyes and soon I was fast asleep once more. I'd hit my head pretty hard!
