"Where are you going?" Nathan mumbled as I grabbed my bag.

"Class," I replied and checked myself in his small mirror before smiling, "you should get up considering class starts in half an hour."

"Ditch with me?" Nathan asked as he sat up in his bed.

He chewed on his lip ring while staring at me but I shook my head, "nope. I have to pick my brother up after school today anyway, I'll see you later if you aren't coming," I mumbled and went to leave.

"Wait," Nathan whined before getting out the bed, "make me a cuppa I'll be down in five." He grumbled and went through his drawers.

I smiled before leaving his bedroom and headed downstairs. I went into the kitchen and saw Jess at the kitchen table texting, "morning Jess," I said and put my bag on the table before I started making a cup of tea for Nathan since I would get a hot chocolate at the drink stand.

"Morning Lexi," Jess said and carried on texting.

"You need a lift to school?" I asked and poured the water into the cup with the tea bag before getting some milk.

Jess shook her head, "no getting a lift off someone." She replied.

I frowned, "who?" I asked confused.

"Just someone," she mumbled.

"It isn't Austin right?" I asked as I mixed in two sugars before taking the tea bag out and looked at Jess.

Jess bit her lip before standing up, "I'll see you later," she said hastily before quickly leaving.

"Jess!" I called after her before hearing the door slam shut. I groaned and ran a hand through my hair, "what's wrong with you?" Nathan asked confused as he came into the kitchen.

I said nothing and handed him his cup of tea, "I said whats wrong with you," Nathan said a little more harsher.

I glared at him, "nothing!" I snapped.

"Well it isn't nothing," Nathan replied back annoyed and put his tea on the table before glaring at me, "tell me!" he ordered.

"No. It's nothing, I'm going to class, see you later," I muttered angrily and went to grab my bag but Nathan grabbed my arm stopping me.

"Lexi... tell me," he said a little softer this time.

I closed my eyes taking a deep breath before opening them, "like I said before, it's nothing," I mumbled and pulled my arm out of his grip before grabbing my bag and headed out of his house. I went straight to my car before nearly slipping on the ice. I groaned annoyed before opening my car and getting in and then turning on the heater quickly to warm up the car. I used my windscreen wipers to wipe off the frost and waited a few minutes while it did that and sorted out the radio station.

Once it was sorted and the car was warm also there was no frost on the windscreen I started off for class. I drove through the snow with a frown on my face, Jess better not be seeing Austin again. Especially after last time or I might tell Nathan even if he will hate me. What a great relationship Nathan and I have already.

I tapped my fingers against the wheel before sighing and pulling in on the campus and stopped the car. I got out of my car and then closed the door before locking it. I slipped my bag over my shoulder before placing a smile onto my face and headed over to the drink stand. I stood in the line and got my money out while I waited to be served.

"Lexi," a voice said.

I turned and saw Jay, he wore a grey beanie, a hoodie with jeans and boots, I noticed a new piercing on his ear, "hey Jay," I smiled.

"So have you heard about this weekend?" Jay asked grinning.

I frowned, "about what?" I asked confused.

Jay raised an eyebrow, "about Nathan? He's getting another tattoo. Also there's this huge party."

"He is?" I asked shocked. He never said anything.

"Yeah... guessing he hasn't told you?" Jay asked as we moved up in the line.

I shook my head, "no... he hasn't," I replied before ordering my hot chocolate. Jay shoved his hands into his hoodie's pocket and waited patiently for me.

I paid for my drink before standing next to Jay, "hey maybe he wanted to but this is Nathan he's new to sharing what he's thinking." Jay teased.

I took a sip of my hot chocolate, "how do you know so much about him? You seem to know more than the other guys."

"We were good friends and then he dated Vicky we kind of split apart. Something happened to her because she basically disappeared and then he changed. He got a tattoo before getting his piercing, I guess I encouraged the tattoo since I got this one," Jay said and lifted up his sleeve to show a lizard tattoo.

I smiled and traced it with my finger before pulling away, "so you led him astray," I teased.

Jay laughed and lifted his jacket down over his arm, "hey," Jay joked and shoved me lightly, "be careful might do the same to you."

I giggled before drinking from my hot chocolate, "right. Careful, Nathan will beat you up."

Jay started laughing, "please he can't touch me I'll have him to the ground in a second."

I smiled up at him before taking another sip from my drink and saw Nathan standing by the entrance to where my class was. Jay stopped walking and turned to look at me, "see you later Lexi." Jay grinned before walking away.

I shook my head laughing before drinking my hot chocolate as I walked over to Nathan. He was frowning at me and his fringe covered his eye, he chewed on his lip ring.

"Why were you talking to Jay?" he snapped.

"Jealous?" I joked and finished my drink before walking pass him and headed towards class.

I heard him behind me before I entered the lecture room. I went to the back and threw my drink in the bin before going to my seat. Nathan sat down next to me seething, "you tell me what you spoke about," he said harshly before taking my hand.

I rolled my eyes and got my things out, "Nathan stop being so fucking possessive. It's creepy." I mumbled.

Nathan smirked, "I know you think I'm sexy," he winked.

I shook my head not bothering to say anything and Ben took a seat next to me and smiled. I smiled back at him and Nathan took his hand out of mine. My smile faltered slightly as Nathan nodded to Ben.

I gave a small sigh, of course he wouldn't want to tell anyone else that we are together. He wouldn't change for me. I ran a hand through my hair and looked up while listening to the lecture teacher talk.

I doodled on my notes not really paying attention. I didn't feel like it. I looked at my doodles before blushing, I had written Nathan's name. I quickly ripped the page out of my note book ignoring Nathan's confused look, and chucked it into my bag.

"Are you ok?" Nathan whispered, his lip ring carefully grazing against my ear.

I nodded my head not saying anything before going back to actually paying attention to the teacher.

Once the lecture was over I quickly stood up and lifted my bag over my shoulder, "bye Lexi," Ben grinned before leaving.

I started leaving to hopefully get away from Nathan. I got into the corridor into the busy sea of students and started making my way to literature. Someone grabbed my arm stopping me from carrying on, I groaned annoyed and turned and saw Nathan. People gave him looks but he ignored them.

"Why didn't I get a goodbye?" he asked confused.

I rolled my eyes having a sense of déjà-vu.

"Just stop Nathan. I need to go to class I'll see you later," I muttered.

"Babe come on what's up?" Nathan asked.

I sighed, "what's up? Nathan as soon as Ben came in you let go of my hand. I thought you wanted us to be together or am I just another game?"

He frowned before his frown disappeared, "I... Lexi..." he started but I shook my head.

"I'm late to class. Bye Nathan," I sighed and then walked away from him.

After class had finished I left the lecture hall. My stomach rumbled making me blush before I walked towards a vending machine. I put my money in and got a chocolate bar. When it came out I got it out of out wrapper, I had two hours until I needed to pick Jo up.

I headed back outside onto campus and was hit by the chilling air. I started walking towards my car when someone ran up to me.

"Lexi right?" the guy asked.

I nodded my head confused, "you need to go where the bonfire was." He said before leaving as if he was scared.

I frowned before rolling my eyes, Nathan. Should I just leave him there and face his wrath later or do I go see what he's doing and prepare myself for a shouting match. I choose the later.

I headed over to my car as I finished my bar before chucking the rubbish in a bin and then got into my car. I warmed it up before I started driving to where the bonfire was. Well what I remembered since Nathan had drove me. I arrived at the forest bit before getting out, I looked up at the light grey sky it wasn't snowing her but I know it will soon. I sighed before walking in the little forest park and headed towards where the bonfire use to be, I noticed the old ash on the ground before looking around confused. I suddenly jumped when someone touched my shoulder.

"Chill it's just me," Nathan muttered.

I let out a relieved sigh before turning around and looking at him, "come with me," he murmured and took my hand and laced our fingers together.

I followed him as he walked towards somewhere every now and again he would rub my hand with his thumb. I was about to ask where we were going when we stopped.

I looked around and saw just trees, "why are we here Nathan?" I asked sighing.

He looked at me before pulling me towards the trees and moved around the branches and leaves that were hanging down pulling me into some kind of treehouse that was on the ground.

"When I moved from Gloucester when I was 13 me and my sister were bored so we went into the forest and made a treehouse kind of." He said, I started smiling and he rolled his eyes, "don't judge ok. I was 13."

"I'm not judging, this is really cute," I said.

Nathan chuckled before pulling me close against him, "hmm yeah right," he mumbled and kissed my cheek. I leaned into his chest and wrapped my arms around his lean form.

"Sorry for being a bitch," I mumbled and shivered when he kissed my neck.

"Hmm," he hummed and sucked slightly on my neck.

I shivered again before feeling snow fall, Nathan kissed my neck once more before pulling away and looked up.

"It's snowing," he said.

"No shit Sherlock," I joked.

Nathan glared playfully at me before leaning down and rubbing his nose against mine and then pressed his cold lips against mine. His lip ring dug into my lip and it felt natural by now. I moved my lips in sync with his before I pulled away.

"I have to pick my brother up," I said as Nathan kissed my cheek again.

"Can't we just leave him and have some fun," Nathan said suggestively.

My cheeks flushed red, "Nathan," I muttered and pulled away, "come on. I need to go."

He groaned before pulling me in for one last kiss that was urgent before he pulled away and chuckled at my slight pout.

"Come on gorgeous," he smirked and laced his fingers with mine again and we started to leave his little tree house under the trees.

We got back into the normal forest bit and started walking towards my car, "you need to give me a lift. I went home and left my car there before walking here." Nathan said.

"Did you scare that guy into saying to me to come here?" I asked.

Nathan winked, "might have."

I rolled my eyes and leaned against him as we walked. We finally reached my car and I got into the driver seat to Nathan's annoyance and he got into the passenger seat.

"Don't whine," I said.

Nathan rolled his eyes, "I never said anything."

"But you were going to," I retorted.

Nathan chuckled as I began driving to my brothers school, "course I was." He mumbled and took my one of my hands but I took it back.

"I need two hands to drive unlike you," I said as he frowned. Nathan shrugged and poked his bottom lip out slightly making his lip ring fully exposed.

"When were you going to tell me that you were getting a tattoo this weekend," I asked.

Nathan rolled his eyes, "Jay," he muttered before looking at me, "well now you know. Not a big deal, just a tattoo."

I sighed as I pulled up outside Jonathan's school. I said nothing as I saw Jo come out, he noticed me in the car and ran over before getting into the backseat.

"Lexi! Hi Nathan!" Jo said excitedly.

Nathan grinned, "alright little guy," Nathan said.

"Lexi where's mom?" Jo asked. I saw Nathan bite his lip to keep from correcting my brother to day 'mum' instead.

I smirked a little, "oh she is working late and dad is ill so I picked you up." I said turning and facing him.

He nodded his head before frowning, "what's on your neck?" Jo asked pointing to my neck. My hand flew up to my neck where I felt a bump and it was sore to the touch. Nathan looked like he was holding in laughter so I checked my self in the small mirror and was shocked to see a hickey. Nathan fucking Sykes.

"It's huge, like a big bug bite," Jo said oblivious to Nathan silently laughing.

I glared at Nathan, "yeah it's a bug bite. Stupid bug," I said embarrassed and covered it with my hair.

As Jo got his seatbelt on I smacked Nathan on the arm and he gave me an innocent look before he let out a laugh.

"Can we go," Jo whined.

I nodded my head and started driving home, ignoring Nathan's smirk.
