Nathan's POV

I had been sitting in the living room discussing business with a few of the men that had been apart of my fathers business. I hadn't realized how long I had been talking to them until I looked at my phone. 10:00pm.

My mind kept wandering back to the girl waiting for me in my room. I told her I would only be a few hours but I didnt expect my conversation to go for as long as it did.

I stood up from my chair. "I have things to do right now so you have 60 seconds to leave." I looked around the room and watched as the men got up and quickly walked out my front door. I went up stairs skipping a step at a time. When I opened the door it was dark in my room so I turned the light on. I glanced over to my bed and Adelyn was sleeping. She was curled up into a little ball.

I walked over to the side of the bed she was sleeping on and just admired her sleeping. She looked so peacefull. I don't think shes slept very well the past few nights.

I reached my hand down and rubbed my thumb softly across one of the bruises on her neck. Who could hurt such a beautiful girl? I wanted to find whoever did this to her. I would eventually get it out of her but it would probably take some time.

"Adelyn, you need to wake up I'll take you home." I quietly said. She mummbled something but I couldn't hear her and she rolled over. "Addi get up." Still nothing. I eventually decided to just leave her be, she would be pissed in the morning but oh well, I tried.

I pulled the sheets back and layed them across her. I walked over to my closet and changed into a pair of sweatpants and took my shirt off. I climbed into bed beside her and pulled the sheets over myself, but left my chest uncovered.

I listened to Adelyn's breaths, it brought comfort to me listening to them. They were calm and slow. I slowly fell asleep.

It didnt last long before I felt soft fingers poking my arm. I immediatly sat up and looked over to see Adelyn sitting on the bed. When I jumped up it mustve scared her cause she jolted. "What? Whats wrong?"

"You didnt take me home last night its almost 7 in the morning, I need to go home and change for school." she said. Her voice was low since she just woke up. "I tried to wake you up last night but you wouldnt get up."

"Well get up I need you to take me home." I got up out of the bed and walked to my closet. I grabbed a pair of jeans and t-shirt. I also grabbed a pair of black sweatpants and maching hoodie and handed them to her. "whats that for?" she asked, she looked confused.

"To change into, were going to school arent we?"

"Well yeah, but I wanted you to take me home first so I could change into my own clothes." She said.

"Just change into these, ill take you home after school." She stared at me for a moment before taking the clothes from my hand. As she grabbed them her hand brushed against mine. She walked into the bathroom closing the door behind her.

While I waited for her to change I changed into my jeans and shirt, then sat on the bed and waited for her. When she finally came out, my clothes looked like they were engulfing her, but she looked cute in my clothes. I stared at her for a moment before walking towards her. I stopped infront of her and admired how gorgeous she looked as someone who just woke up.

"Dont you think it will be weird when we show up together, and im wearing clothes that arent mine?" she asked. "Fuck what other people think, just ignore people thats what I do."

"Well im not you." she said. "Oh, Im plenty aware, I think there would be some serious issues if you were me." I joked. I watched a small smile creep onto her face. I grabbed her backpack and we made our way down stairs. When I got to the bottom Jared was sitting in my living room.
