Y/n's pov

I woke up to find nobody next to me. I removed the blanket from my body and climbed out of the bed. Nathan wasn't in the villa. I looked at the clock to check the time.

'Shit!'

I was late for breakfast. I slipped into my clothes as fast as possible and made my way to the door. I stuck my head out of the door to check if it was safe for me to come out. It was. I started brushing my fingers through my hair, so I would look at least half decent. I started collecting my hair in a high ponytail, but when I reached for my hair tie it wasn't on my wrist.

For Christ's sake!

There was absolutely no way I was going back there, so I just let it down.

at breakfast

Everyone was at the buffet table choosing what their meal was going to be. Just as I was making my way to my table someone grabbed my shoulder and turned me around.

'What the fuck was that last night?' Ash whispered angrily.

Distress was written all over his face. Just by looking at him I felt guilt.

'You had me worried sick,' he continued.

My best friend then pulled me in for a tight hug. His actions and words didn't mean for me to feel guilty. He was just genuinely worried for me.

'You can't do this again. Got it?' he warned me.

I chuckled.

'Yes, even if you're with him...'

'Right...' I exhaled, the wonderful memories from last night flashing in my mind.

Just as the words left my mouth, he walked behind Ash and smiled at me.

'Morning,' Nathan said with his raspy voice.

He was holding two plates. The first one was filled with eggs, bacon and different types of vegetables and the second one was with croissants and other desserts. I guess you need a ton of food to keep up with this physique.

He looked good, even while holding food. His sleeves were rolled up to his elbows, showing his popping veins. Taking a closer look, I came to the realization that there was something around his wrist. A tie. My hair tie. That was why I didn't have it on me in the morning.

I had zoned out and had my eyes locked on his wrist.

'Yo! You good?' Ash pushed me away. 'Y/n?'

'Oh, yeah! All good.' He pulled me out of my trance. 'I'll go get some food.' I smiled and walked away.

'Come sit with me afterwards. I wanna know what happened...' he teased me.

'Bro... gross...' I whispered.

Ash then chuckled.

Ash and Y/n are eating on the same table

'His abs muscles are so deifneeeddd, ughh,' she grunts. 'And his back... oh his back. He has a back wider than yours!'

'Wider than mine!?' Ash pretends to be offended and then laughs.

'Wider than yours! And he was so gentle and at the same time rough. You know? Like he wanted to pleaser us both, but not hurt me at the same time,' she informs him.

'First of all, don't tell me that many details, please.' He pretends to be grossed out. 'Second of all, you sound in love...'

'I do? No, I don't,' she denies.

'Mhmm.' The boy lifts his eyebrows. 'Mm, yeah, you do.'

'Maybe...?'

Nathan's pov (a few hours earlier, while he was on his morning run)

20 minutes left of my run. I took my phone out to check the time - 6:50am, and then I decided to call my brother, something I wasn't really accustomed to. I connected my AirPods to my phone and clicked "call". It stared ringing.

Once.

Twice.

A third time.

'What the fuck do you want?' I could tell by his voice that I had woken him up.

'Morning, sunshine. Why aren't you at work?' I asked him. 'Someone has to look over the business.'

'Yeah, well, there would be someone looking after it if you hadn't decided to bail on me and go on a trip with your favorite student.'

'About that...' I exhaled sharply, while still running.

'What did you do?'

I could sense Aaron stand up from his laying position on the bed.

'You were-- you were right,' I gulped.

'Bloody hell! You actually fucked her,' he scoffed.

'I didn't fuck her. I just...'

'Slept with her?' he added, probably raising his eyebrows.

'I gave it my best, but I just couldn't resist her. Fuck!' I sighed. 'Aaron?'

'Nathan...?' he questioned, not knowing what to expect next.

'I think.. I might have grown fond of her...'

'Have you gone mad?' he yelled over the phone

'Is that a rhetorical question?'

'Ha-ha. Very funny. She's your student for Christ's sake!'

'No, not anymore she isn't.'

'Look... I like the girl. She seems nice and sweet, but do you think it's in your best interest?'

'I just can no longer lie to myself.'

'Nathaniel...'

Nathaniel was my birth given name. Only my closest would call me that.

'Do as you wish, but just be careful. You know what I mean. Okay? For both of you sakes,' the younger brother warned me.

'I will. I have to go now. Call you later?'

'Sure. Just please let it be at a more reasonable time,' he pleaded.

'Fine. 5am sound good?' he chuckled.

Aaron hung up the phone.

THIS IS IMPORTANT! Should I change y/n's name to an actual name? Cause I think it sounds kinda cringey that way (asking for the third time)
