                    "Taylor" He said quietly looking at me with his chocolate brown eyes on his tan face. His dark brown hair that looked so dark anyone would have said it was black. He was also pretty tall; my head probably stopped at his shoulder, but he wasn't one of those lanky tall kids. You could tell that he worked out especially with his thin black shirt and khaki colored jeans. He was one of those guys that a girl would always be falling for. One of those guys that would always break their heart. One of the guys that I tried my absolute best to avoid. I don't even know why he was here. He was the school's biggest heart breaker as well as a player, and I hated him with a passion especially after what he did to Chloe.

                     "No offense, but what are you doing here?" I asked my voice dripping with venom.

                       "Oh, um" He stuttered looking at the floor "I left something here from when I was with Chloe" he said turning slightly pink. mhmmm I thought he's a pretty good actor.

                     "No you're not" I said bluntly as I saw his pink face turn to panic for the smallest second before he composed himself again and showed me his confident smile.

                       "Alright you caught me" He said with a laugh as he ran his fingers through his hair standing up to his full height. "I didn't come here for Chloe"

                        "Who did you come for?" I suspiciously asked raising one of my eyebrows.

                        "You" he stated as he looked me in the eyes with the most serious face. I really didn't see that coming, so when he said that my heartbeat sped up as well as my breathing got faster and faster without my control. Oh God don't betray me body not now not ever I thought to myself as I hoped that nothing would really happen.

                         "Yea right" I said as I giggled nervously taking a step back towards Chloe's bed and away from him.

                          "No, I actually wanted to talk to you" he said taking a step towards me.

                           "No, it's alright" I quickly said taking another step back feeling the mattress of the bed on the back of my legs. Panic quickly flooding my body as I tried to figure out Nate's real motive.

                           "Look, I'm sorry" he said solemnly as if he actually felt sorry.

                           "I'm not the one you should be saying sorry to" I angrily snapped

                         "I know" he know he said flinching "It's all my fault"

                     "Noooo" I said mockingly "it's not like you cheated on my best friend or anything" I shouted.

                          "I said I'm sorry" he said sharply making me real back as if I just got slapped feeling shocked by his outburt. As if he just realized what he did was wrong he put his head down and quietly said "I know I made a lot of mistakes and that I can't change the past, but I'm trying"

                      "Ok" I said quietly "So do you want to talk?" I asked looking up at him and gesturing to the bed to sit.

                      "Woah there" he said putting his hands up in the air "We're in Chloe's room right now and I know that you may be having some urges ,but you just have to wait" he said giving me a funny look.

                       "What?" I asked not realizing what he meant. "Ugh no! That is not what I meant! Oh God! NATE!!!" I said quickly shaking my head back and forth feeling disgusted and disturbed by his hideous mind as I processed what just happened.

                         "I know" he said laughing "It's just that I knew that you would react that way and I just love it" he said doubling over as he tried to control himself from his laughter.

                    "Alright we get it you perv" I said as I jumped onto the farthest corner of the of the bed.

                       "Sorry" he said panting from the laughter as he stood up. As he got onto the bed and tried to get closer to me I held out my arms stopping him from getting any closer and said plainly said "Nope"

                    "What?" he asked totally confused by my action.

                       "Stay away from me. I need my bubble space" I said as my hands slightly shook.

                        "Are you being serious?" He asked looking at me with shock.

                         "Yea I am" I said nodding my head as he sighed and went to the other corner of the bed.

                         "Do you hate me, or something?" he said looking at me curiously

                          "Oh no. Does it show" I said sarcastically

                    "Because if you do I can see why" he said with a smirk

                           "Why?" I asked irritated

                     "It's because I'm too hot to handle" he said sitting on the edge of the bed putting his hand up as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.

                          "Ha. You are hot" I admitted "A hot mess"

                       "How am I a hot mess? The ladies love me" he said getting even closer to me. 

                          "Exactly"

                          "oh, I see, you think I'm a player" he said looking at me seriously

                            "Because you are" I said with no hesitation "you go out with a bunch of girls, and break all their hearts just like you did to Chloe"

                               "I haven't dated that many girls" he says trying to look innocent, but failing

                            "Sure" I scoffed "you're the school player"

                                  "How about a bet then, to prove you wrong?" he asked

                              "I'm listening" I said slightly intrigued

                               "Well, you might not like it" he said sheepishly

                              "Why?" I asked annoyed "I can do it"

                              "Are you sure?" he said inching even closer to me totally invading my bubble space.

                               "Yup" I said quietly as I looked up at him

                                "It'll take a while as well as hard work by both of us" He said 

                               "Just tell me" I said rolling my eyes frustrated

                                 "Go out with me"
