Reina's POV

"Seriously?" I heard Jack ask from behind me.

"What?" I asked eating the last of my donut.

"We literally just came back from the gym" he responded

"And your point is?"

"Hand me one!" He laughed.

I reached into the box and grabbed a donut and extended my hand out to give it to him, but before he could grab it I snatched it back and took a bite out of it. His mouth opened wide and his eyebrows furrowed.

"You're gonna pay for that" he said softly before walking over to me and putting his hands on my waist.

"Feed it to me" he added, opening his mouth.

I sighed and little by little fed it to him, getting chocolate around his mouth.

"Get a room pls" Madison said as she walked into the kitchen and grabbed an apple.

I threw a roll of paper towels at her and she stuck her tongue out.

"You don't have to get jealous Mad" Jack said as he detached himself from me and wrapped his arms around her.
(That's Madison's fav nickname for her btw ;;;;;;))

"There's enough me for everyone" he joked while kissing her on the cheek.

She smiled and started kissing him while I looked down at the floor. This was fucking awkward. I walked out of the kitchen into the living room and saw Cameron sitting on one of the couches.

"Mr. Dallas?"

He glanced at me and stood up, smiling.

"Reina how are you?" He said a bit sadly.

"I'm doing better, I guess" I said shrugging. Nate's death was hard on me and I wear the ring everyday, but I know he would've wanted me to move on. Probably not with Jack but I couldn't help it. At first I hated him with all my heart but I always loved him, although I'd never tell him.

Before my mind could register what I was doing I walked over to him and hugged him. For a few seconds he didn't hug back, probably because he wasn't expecting it. But then he wrapped his arms around me and squeezed me slightly, picking me off the ground a bit.

I let out a bit of a moan which I wasn't expecting and I felt his smile against my neck.

"Ahem"

I broke the hug and turned around seeing Jack.

"Cameron? I wasn't expecting you, sorry for not being dressed professionally" he said gesturing to his gym clothes.

"No that's fine I just came by to drop off this weeks payment" Cam said while handing him an envelope.

"Talk to you soon" was the last thing he said before walking out of the house.

Jack sighed and put the envelope in his back pocket.

"That was weird " he laughed.

"Not as weird as you" Madison joked as she jumped on his back.

Jack started running around the house with Madison on his back, laughing. I sighed sadly and sat next to a girl on the couch.

"You'll get used to it" she said without looking away from the flatscreen.

"Get used to what?" I whispered.

"Him paying attention to other girls. Especially Madison. Regardless of whatever new girl comes in, he always treats her the best. When you came I thought things were different. He treated you like a queen. He treated me that way once, now he doesn't even remember my name. Out of the 20 + girls in this mansion he probably only knows about 7 of them." she ranted

"Oh" I sighed, picking at my nails.

"My name's Vanessa by the way" she said glancing at me. She had light brown skin and beautiful green eyes. She had curly black hair and plump red lips.

I walked back upstairs and as I passed Jack's room I heard a rocking sound. I slowly opened one of the French double doors a bit and saw Jack's hands on his bed frame as he thrusted underneath his white sheets.

I closed the door as quietly as I could and ran to my room, slamming the door behind me. I wanted to scream, but everyone would hear me so I opened my window and climbed onto the roof.

As I sat on the roof looking at the sunset I started to cry.

"I miss you so fucking much Nate!" I screamed, not caring who heard me.

"I miss you too" I heard a voice say behind me.

I turned around and saw him, standing a few feet from me. I gasped and felt dizzy.

"Please don't overreact, I just wanna talk to you" he said as he sat next to me.

I started to slowly scoot away from him, towards the edge of the roof.

"P-please don't hurt me" I whispered, reaching the edge of the roof.

"You know I'd never. I need to talk to you my queen" he responded, his ghostly face saddened by my actions.

After a few moments of me just staring at him he spoke again. "I need you to let me go. I need you to move on and et me cross over to the other side. I love you so much and every night I see you cry yourself to sleep. Please, let me go"

"I've tried, really I just don't know how to" I replied, slowly scooting closer to him.

"Burn this" he said while handing me a Polaroid picture that was faced down so I couldn't see it and a lighter. I glanced at him and turned the picture over, gasping.

"I can't do it I'm sorry." I responded while handing him back the lighter.

"Then give it to me" he said angrily while trying to grab the picture. Whenever he tried to touch me his hand went through me, like I was made of water.

"No!" I yelled while dropping it off the side of the roof, making it land somewhere in the backyard.

"Reina, why the hell are you on the roof?" I heard Jack yell from below.

"Um I'm getting some fresh air?" I yelled back. I turned around to look at Nate but he was gone. Did he cross over?

I made my way back into my bedroom where Jack was waiting for me already.

"What's this?" He asked suspiciously holding up the picture.
