It's our dirty little secret..

Chapter 2

Nate found the cafeteria after French class but sighed when he couldn't find a seat alone.

"Of course... New kid comes around and there's no where for him to sit" he thought to himself.

Nate turned around and, with his head down, walked out of the cafeteria. He opened the door and felt something collide with the back of it.

"Shit" Nate muttered, sliding between the gap in the door to see who he hit.

When he looked down he saw a guy laying on the ground, holding his nose.

"Ow!" The guy said and his friend gave Nate a dirty look.

"Jason, you alright?" The guy on the ground's friend asked him. He nodded then his friend turned back to Nate

"Watch what you're doing new kid. Do you know who you're dealing with?" The kid growled at Nate who just rolled his eyes.

"Don't pick a fight you can't win" Nate said with a threatening tone. "Hey, you alright?" he asked the guy on the ground.

"Yeah, I'm fine" Jason said as he got up off the floor.

Jason's friend grabbed Nate by the collar of his shirt and slammed him against the hall way wall. A loud thud could be heard from several feet away. "I'm on the football team AND the wrestling team, I'm pretty sure I can win this fight" he growled in Nate's face.

"Mike! Lay off!" Jason shouted at him but Mike wasn't listening as he tightened his grip on Nate's collar.

Nate smirked "Oh you're a big boy now" Nate said sarcastically.

"You wanna' fight?" he asked "Then let's fight" As he said that he pushed Mike off him and watched as he staggered back. Nate put his backpack down and threw his fist at Mike's jaw.

Mike staggered back and glared at Nate, rubbing where he had hit him then ran at him, tackling him to the ground. A crowd was gathering around to watch and Nate grew a little cocky. He flipped Mike off of him and punched him in the face again. He smirked when he saw Mike's lip start to bleed.

Paisley saw the crowd and pushed through.

"Excuse me, sorry.. Coming through" she said to the people as she finally made her way to the two boys.

At this time Nate had Mike in a headlock, kneeing him in the stomach.

"Nate! Stop!" Paisley screamed and as soon as Nate heard her voice, he stopped. Something inside of him forced his body to stop fighting and look up at her. He dropped Mike to the ground and Paisley stepped between the two.

She turned to the fuming and furious Nate and put both hands on his solid chest, stopping him from moving towards Mike "He's not worth it alright? Don't fight him, you'll only get in trouble" she said quietly, her green eyes looking in his.

Nate's expression still held anger but he nodded once, agreeing to end the fight. Mike on the other hand smirked. He grabbed Paisley's butt and she looked horrified.

"Why don't we get out of here and have a little fun?" Mike said to Paisley, smirking all the while.

Nate moved past Paisley, grabbed Mike by the collar and slamming him against the wall like Mike had done to him.

"Don't touch her" Nate growled.

"I'll touch her if I want to!" Mike choked and Nate tightened his grip, clearing cutting off Mike's air supply. Nate couldn't control his anger, he was seeing red, feeling a rage like none other.

"Not if I say you can't" Nate said with a locked jaw, his voice came out in almost a growl.

Paisley put her hand on Nate's arm "Nate please!" she pleaded, her eyes begging him to stop. And, like she had asked, he did. He dropped his hand from Mike's throat and watched him cough and slide to the ground.

Nate stared at Mike with a ice cold glare that clearly showed the hatred he felt towards the coughing teenager. Someone called that a teacher was coming so the crowd left, Mike got up and Paisley grabbed Nate's hand.

Jason sighed, watching Paisley running off with Nate. "Paisley!" he called after her but she was already gone.

Paisley pulled Nate into the cafeteria, right through another crowd of people and out the other side.

The hall way they were in was dead. Not a single person was there and Nate seemed to love it.

"You fought for me..." Paisley said quietly, turning to Nate.

Nate looked down at her, staying quiet.

Paisley smiled "Thank you" she whispered, looking up at him. She found such an attraction towards Nate. She looked up into his sad blue eyes and saw hope, saw something else, felt something else. It was something she hadn't felt towards someone before and she never wanted it to go away for some reason.

Nate's eyes drifted from hers down to her lips and before he could stop himself he leaned down, pressing his lips to hers gently as if he didn't want to break her. Paisley was taken by surprise but, without question, she kissed him back.

Nate kissed her again, wrapping an arm around her waist and hugging her closer to him. Paisley had both hands on his chest, her lips never leaving his. Sparks were flying, fireworks were going off and a feeling neither of them had felt before soared through the two teenagers.

They were alone in this abandoned hallway, no one was around and the two loved it this way.

Everything was going perfectly until..

"Nate Davies to the officd immediately" A voice over the P.A system called and Paisley pulled back from Nate's lips.

" I guess I have to go..." Nate said sadly yet he was smiling.

Paisley looked down and moved her fiery red hair out of her face. "I'll see you later then" she said quietly and Nate nodded, using his index finger to lift her head so she looked at him. He kissed her softly once more before jogging off towards the office.

When (The now smiling) Nate got to the office he wasn't at all surprised to see Mike there, holding an ice pack to his face. He glared at Nate as he walked past and sat in the chair next to him but Nate continued to smile.

"Looks like you got lucky... Paisley?" Mike whispered "Man, was it good?!"

Nate turned to him, his hand clenched into a fist again "Don't talk about her like that.." he said with a harsh tone.

Mike put his hands up in surrender.

"Look man, i'm sorry about started shit.. I just have had a bad day" Mike said but his voice was muffled by the ice pack.

Nate chuckled "It's alright... Beating your ass was pretty fun" He said with a smirk.

Mike laughed but then stopped abruptly, considering it hurt to even talk.

"Sorry about your face..." Nate said awkwardly and Mike waved a careless hand.

"It's no big deal." Mike said with a laugh.

The principale walked out of his office and called Mike in. Mike sighed, waved to Nate once before walking into the office.

Nate sat in the chair, tapping out a beat with his foot while patting his hand on his thigh to the beat. After about a half an hour, Mike came back out with the principal; clearly trying to sweet talk him out of getting a detention.

"Davies, you and Mike have detention Friday night. You'll stay after school and help out Mr. Montague, the janitor, clean up." The Principle said, gesturing to the janitor who stood there emotionless.

"Great" Nate said sarcastically with a sigh.
