Love is pain

Natalie's p.o.v

I get up having the feeling that I had a very weird dream but can't remember what it was about I laugh to myself and get up to go for a shower . When I'm dry I slip on a pair of dark blue jeans a white tank top and slip over a black hoodie , on a whim I lift up my jumper to show my side I look at the tattoo that reaches from my hip up to bellow my shoulder I got it when I was 16 apparently money can make you old enough lol. I saw it on Facebook one day and on an impulse decided that for once I would get something I want and no one would know it was there except me . It has roses and a skull but it looks so feminine and it feels like it should have been a part of me forever ( picture of tattoo on front cover). I pull down my jumper with a smile at my secret tattoo and pick up my brush .
My hair falls around my stomach as I brush it I pull it up to put in a hair clip to keep it out of the way and look in the mirror , I love my eyes and my skin has always been flawless never a spot or anything I like the way I look I'm happy with myself yet I lack any self confidence. I grab my bag and leave for school.




Sitting on my usual bench I notice everyone staring at something I look at where there staring and my eyes land on the best looking guy I have ever seen I get the shivers just looking at him. He is tall about 6ft maybe , has dirty blonde hair that falls around his eyes and his eyes omg his eyes steel grey eyes shine out of his pale face , my eyes are drawn to his lips plump and full just perfect for kissing as that thought runs through my mind his steel eyes meet mine . I feel my face heat up and I look away by the time I have the nerve to look up he's away I blow out a breath I never knew I was holding and get back to my homework.


At lunch all anyone is talking about is the new guy I put in my headphones to drown out the noise after about 10 minuets I get the shivers again and look up omg he's coming this way and he's looking at me my stomach starts churning and I do the thing I do best i run before anyone notices as I get up and run I see a look of confusion wash over his face but I keep on running.

When I get to my table outside I breathe deep he wasn't coming to talk to you stupid my head tells me , yeah obviously not what was I thinking I laugh at myself and open a book when I feel a tap on my shoulder I feel like an electric shock runs down me I jump and turn around.

Shit that's all I can think I'm staring at his eyes the steel grey seems to look deep inside me trying to discover all my secrets I must have been looking a while because he clears his throat and says "hey I'm Nicholas ",

I'm frozen his voice is like melted caramel making my knees wobble I'm sure if I wasn't sitting down I would've fell.

" ahh I ehm I... I'm Natalie?" I stutter It came out as a question like I don't even know my own name.

He laughs" you don't seem to sure about that"

I instantly go red and put my head down could this be anymore embarrassing ? I feel a finger under my chin sending sparks up my face he tips my head up till I'm looking into his eyes ,

" you don't need to be nervous or embarrassed with me Natalie " he smiles and I find myself smiling back I don't know why but suddenly I feel comfortable.


Nicholas p.o.v


She smiles at me and its the most amazing thing I've ever seen I can tell she's shy and a loner not once have I seen her with anyone not even her parents. Finally after all these years she's here and she's smiling I can feel her starting to open to me she's about to say something,

" hey nick I've been looking for you everywhere" says an annoying voice and I feel a hand on my shoulder , instantly Natalie's smile disappears and she shuts down I feel the rage in me build I turn around to see who has a death wish. She stands with bottle blond hair a skin tight top and a skirt that looks more like a belt, I look at her hand in disgust she seems to notice and takes it away. Standing behind her are about 5 mini clones of her , I turn around to see the back of Natalie as she's walking away I start to go after her when a hand pulls my arm,
" ohh don't mind her nick she's a freak, you don't want to start a new school with her as a friend , now I would be perfect the hottest guy in school with the hottest girl we're a perfect Mach " she purrs trying to be sexy but I just feel disgust at how desperate and up herself she is. Without a word I walk away to try and find Natalie.




Natalie's p.o.v

I can't believe I could be so stupid obviously crystal would move in on him and he would go running nothing ever changes , but I felt something that I've never felt before I still feel it where he touched my chin it tingles I'm so confused. I'm walking down the town I never even realised I walked out of school , I suddenly smell something sweet I follow the smell and come across a small cafe maybe something to eat will clear my head.

I sit in the small cafe and order a hot chocolate and a blueberry muffin, soon I'm picking at my muffin and deep in thought. I am pulled out of my head by someone pulling out a chair I blink and shake my head to see its my table and its Nicholas . My mouth falls open and I just stare at him.

" why did you run off"? He asks with a warm smile , I try and think up a lie but something in his eyes makes me not want to lie to him so I go with the truth.
" ehm I just don't like it when people notice me especially those people" I sigh remembering how crystal and her gang used to shout nasty comments about me any chance they got .

He puts a hand over mine and I feel the sparks, my eyes go to his and I feel myself smiling again .


" why are you talking to me ahh I mean no one does if you want to fit in you should go back to crystal" I hate to say the words but its the truth . His eyes seems to darken I blink and there still striking grey must be seeing things now.

" crystal isn't even half the woman you are I wouldn't give her the time of day if she paid me " he says in a strong voice . I laugh because I've never heard anyone say such a thing , I take a drink of my hot chocolate and look back up to see him smirking I give him a confused look and he reaches up and touches my top lip and licks his finger omfg I can't believe I had cream on my lip I expect him to leave finally realising how dorky I am but he just smacks his lips and says " tasty" in a deep sexy voice that makes something deep inside me twitch.

I blush and he moves to the seat next to me and touches my face , usually I would have freaked out by now but this just feels right .
His touch sends tingles all over my face he leans in and presses his soft lips against mine , my head starts spinning and my heart feels like it could burst he pulls away and my lips feel like there missing something.

" wow" I sigh before I can stop it,

" yeah wow , where have you been hiding all my life" he says with a smile that makes my heart do a double beat. I blush at the comment letting a smile come to my lips .

" I would pay millions just to keep that smile on your face "Nicholas says while stroking my cheek and making my smile bigger.

" come on ill walk you home " he pulls up my hand drops money on the table and we walk out the cafe still holding hands.
