Broken Strings - James Morrison & Nelly Furtado

In Boston

Rose

" Awwww, come here ! You are now one of the family. " my mum said to Nathan and hugged him when we stood at the hall.

" You are such a handsome man! " my mum said and couldn't stop to embrace Nathan.

Afterwards Nathan greeted my dad and my sister Emily.

" You must be very tired of the journey, mustn't you ? " Emily asked Nathan and I felt like I was transparent. Of course, my parents and sister had greeted me, but they have been adoring Nathan since they first saw him.

" No, I'm not. Rose has driven and not me. But thank you. "

We all went to the living room and my sister and my mum started to ask Nathan so many questions that I decided to go upstairs where my old room was.

I opened the door and I was surprised to find my room like I had left it. All the posters and photos were still at the same place and in general everything seemed like nothing had changed past the years.

I knelt me down and looked under my bed and I hoped to find my small blue box I had left here. The box was still there and I smiled. I grabbed it and sat me with it on my bed.

" Rose ? " I heard Nathan say when he knocked on my door. Immediately I put my box away, so he couldn't see it.

Nathan walked in and looked at my posters and photos.

" Your room is really nice. " he said smiling and stopped then at one wall.

" Your The 1975 poster is really awesome. " Nathan said and I blushed.

" Are you remembering old times ? " he asked me.

" Actually, no I don't. I was just only surprised to find my room like I had left it. " I told him and he nodded.

" What is in that box next to you ? "

" Uhm . . . Nothing special! Just some random stuff I had put when I was younger. " I stuttered. I couldn't tell him that there were old letters I got from Bradley. But there weren't only Brad's letters.

" Shall we go downstairs ? " Nathan asked and I nodded.

We left the room and when we got into the living room I was surprised to see my family very peacefully. They looked like a perfect family on TV. My dad was reading very concentrated his newspaper while Emily was tipping something on her mobile next to him.

As soon as my dad noticed that we were back , he put his newspaper away and started to ask Nathan about his job and then somehow they changed their subject of conversation to one of about a senator from Washington DC, but I didn't understand them after all.

I went to the kitchen where my mum was cocking dinner and while entering the room, I could smell that she was cooking something really delicious.

" Hey " my mum greeted me and I greeted her back.

" Are you already cooking for dinner ? " I asked her.

" Yes ! I just started with the starter. Otherwise you guys will have to wait for dinner until midnight ! " my mum chuckled.

I watched her cooking silently. Nobody of us said anything. Maybe because it was strange to spend some time together.

" I really like your fiance Nate " she said suddenly.
