Reina's P.O.V
"Had fun?" I heard Jack ask sarcastically. He threw a bag full of ice at me and before I had time to catch it, it hit my arm and fell on the floor, making the bag burst and the ice to go everywhere. Jack sighed and paced around the room, running his hands through his hair.
"That date you guys planned on having will NEVER happen. I swear to it on my life you'll never see Nate again. You're moving into my room for the time being, so he doesn't try to sneak in here and steal you. I'm giving you an hour to pack everything" he sighed once again before leaving the room.
I grabbed a backpack that he had left in the room and I started stuffing it with clothes, underwear and my everyday essentials including makeup, a toothbrush and a comb. I slipped on a sweater and some jeans with black vans. I made sure to grab the cigarette that I had hidden underneath my pillow and I walked out onto my balcony. I wasn't going with Jack.
After climbing down the side of the house, my feet finally hit the ground. I started running pass the pool and the stage until I hopped the small fence that separated the backyard from the beach and began running even faster. I kept looking behind me, making sure no one was following me. After awhile, the small strip of beach turned into a public beach, with tons of people.
I frowned, realizing that what I was wearing was too hot for today. I walked towards one of the shops lining the beach and went into the bathroom, changing into some bleached shorts and a white lace tube top. As I walked outside I heard a familiar laugh.
"Nate!" I yelled while running towards the tall figure standing near the cash register. He turned around and looked at me with confusion in his eyes. Smiling, he opened his arms and hugged me, while I wrapped my arms around his waist. To other people we might have seemed like an obnoxious couple, but it didn't matter.
"Wha-why- how are you here?" Nate asked while grabbing my hand. "I ran away to be with you." I responded while we walked out of the shop.
"then maybe we should get outta here" he said before grabbing my hand and leading me outside, towards his jeep that he had parked out front. I threw my book bag in the backseat and hopped into the passenger side. After Nate got in he turned the car on and drove.
"So I was thinking I would take you on that date now?" He laughed while changing the radio station. "yeah I'd love that" I responded while putting my hand on his thigh. He looked over at me shook his head. "that's for later baby"

After driving for a few hours, we were near a forest. "You're not planning on killing me out here and burying my body are you?" I joked. The sun had already set and the sky was a dark blue color. The highway we had been on turned into a small road and only a few cars passed by us. Up ahead there were cabins and my heart jumped. I always wanted to go camping in the woods and this was the closet thing to it. "Damnit, you ruined my plan" Nate laughed.
We drove up a steep hill and down a one way, dirt road. At the end of it was a small cabin that was next to a river that had a small dock. There was a boat and jet ski parked there. As soon as Nate parked next to the house, I jumped out of the car and ran up the porch steps to the front door.
"You gotta wait for me babe" Nate smiled while grabbing my bag and locking the jeep. He took his sweet time walking up the porch steps and taking the keys out of his pocket. When he opened the door I was shocked. The cabin was modern, but still had the cabin feel to it. It had a living room kitchen and 2 bedrooms and one bathroom.
I threw myself onto the couch and turned on the tv. My face was on every news channel I turned to, along with videos of my friends and family crying, begging people to help them find me. My heart twisted in pain and I didn't realize I was crying until I felt a pair of strong arms wrap around me and begin to slowly rock me. I adjusted myself so I was sitting on Nate's lap, and put my head in the crook of his neck.
"I'm sorry" I heard Nate whisper as he ran his fingers through my hair. "why?" I asked while looking up at him. "For taking you away from your family." He responded quietly.
I straddled him and gave him a deep kiss. "this is not any of your fault. I love being here with you, and I'm so glad I found you." I managed to say before I broke down into tears again. I loved him so much in such a small period of time.
I felt Nate stand up and pick me up bridal style. My eyes were closed so I wasn't aware of my surroundings. He put me down on a soft mattress and when I opened my eyes I noticed we were in the master bedroom.
Nate went back into the living room and I undressed myself, leaving me in my bra and underwear. I slipped underneath the comforter and closed my eyes. I heard Nate walk back into the room and I looked up at him. In the dim light I saw him remove his shirt and pants leaving him in his boxers.
"Nate?" I asked while getting out of bed.
"Yeah lil mama?"
I walked over to him and turned around, my back facing him. "Can you unhook my bra?" I questioned. I heard him laugh and like a pro, my bra was unhooked and thrown across the room. I felt Nate's lips on my shoulder and felt him hum.
I giggled and grabbed his shirt that was on the floor, slipping it over my head. I laid back down on the bed, underneath the covers and closed my eyes again. "You're no fun" I heard Nate joke. I laughed and felt the bed sink behind me.
Nate's hands wrapped around my waist, instantly warming me and relaxing me. "Do you know what Reina means in Spanish?" Nate whispered.
"No idea"
"It means queen. And that's what you are to me. My queen."
