Temptation: Nate Maloley Fanfiction

Chapter 23

"Sammy wake up we gotta go" I said as we entered our hotel. As I suspected, he was still sleeping. He didn't wake up, so Briley pulled the blanket off of him. Still nothing. Nate took things into his own hands, walking to the other side of the bed, placing his hands between the mattress and frame, and lifted up. His veins popped out of his arms and I have to admit it was a huge turn on. Sammy rolled off of the bed and fell on the floor with a loud thud.
"What the fuck?!" He yelled, sitting up from the floor.
"Briley tired you out last night?" Nate laughed. Sammy smirked and Briley rolled her eyes.
"We have to go Sam" she said impatiently.
"Where?" He asked, confused.
"To our next stop" she replied. I thought of all places we might be headed: Austin, Dallas, Denver, Chicago...
"Eden, Wyoming" he said, stopping me short of my daydreaming.
"Where???" I asked.
"Eden..." He repeated. "Wyoming..." We say in silence for a few seconds while I tried to think of if I've ever heard of it.
"Great, farmville" Briley said after looking it up on her phone. I felt like I was going to cry in disappointment.
"We'll catch mystic falls on our way out and then I promise we'll go somewhere cool." The years swelled up in my eyes, and Nate took notice.
"It's okay Lil mama, we'll make the most out of it I promise" he gave my shoulders a squeeze. I dried the tears and began packing our stuff. I was in for a long ride. I began thinking of how I was going to tell them about our encounter today at the grocery store.

"So today, when me and Briley were waiting for Nate," I looked at Briley from the back seat, "a younger girl approached us. Thinking she didn't know us, we were really confused, but it turns out she did know us; she knows all of us. A lot of people know us. She told us that our story was spreading like wildfire and that people were on our side. We're famous you guys." I got a little to excited at the thought of the last sentence. We had just left our hotel and I decided to break to them as soon as possible. That sat there in silence, consuming everything I just told them.
We approached the center of town, where we saw a large group of people. Out of curiosity, we drove closer. There were a few people on the outside of the gathering, so we pulled over and asked them what was going on.
"This is all for you guys" one said, holding a sign that said "rape is imprisonment, free our heroes" I turned away, unable to face what was to come. "We're protesting for your rights and freedom. The police are on their way though, so you should head out." She warned.
We thanked her and asked to pass a message thanking everyone who was contributing to the rally/protest. As soon as she nodded in agreement, A car not to far from us was set on fire and the corner store's windows were broken. I was horrified by this display and Sammy quickly left the scene.
