Taking Chances.

Part 19

-Nathan's Point Of View-

I woke up to the bright sun hitting my face, I rolled over to avoid it. Eleanor was still fast asleep, she looked funny when she slept.

I started to blow in her face, she groaned and started to move around a bit.

"Nathan.." she mumbled putting her hand over her face.

"I'm not doing anything" I laughed. I budged closer to her and gave her a squeeze "You know you love me really"

She mumbled something I couldn't quite make out, but then leant her head on my chest, so I could play with her hair.

"You're really not a morning person are you?" I laughed

She shook her head, not opening her eyes.

"Last night was great"

She nodded. Did I tire her out that much!? Wow, I'm a machine!

"Stop moving around" Eleanor groaned

"I think you'll find it's you doing the moving around!" I said kissing the top of her head

She tapped her head then sunk her head back into the pillow

"I'm gonna go get a shower" I laughed. No response.

I closed the door and looked in the mirror, my hair was everywhere! I couldn't help but think back to last night, it was perfect. I came on a bit too strong, I was surprised she went along with it! After all that's happened...

I still felt so guilty about the whole Lucy situation. I know that 'honesty is the best policy' but would it harm Eleanor not to know? I don't want to lose her again, from one silly mistake. I hope that Harveen doesn't tell her, but that's the least of my worries at the moment, Lucy's trying to make friends with Eleanor.

I came back to reality and turned on the shower, I quickly took my top off and shorts and jumped in, god it was freezing! I let out a girly scream, I could hear Eleanor giggling.

"Shut up or I'll drag you in here!" I shouted with my face on the wall

"Whatever!" I heard her shout back.

Eventually, the shower began to warm up, I washed my 'manly bits' and then my chest, it made me shiver a bit as I was so cold.

Then I heard a knock at the door.

"Door!" I shouted

I heard a mumble and then footsteps indicating Eleanor had gone to the door. I heard someone's voice and Eleanor greeting them.

"Who is it?" I shouted

"It's just Harveen" she replied

I started to speed up in the shower, I know that Harveen probably won't tell her, but I don't want to leave her with Harveen for too long, just incase.

I quickly dried myself, and dressed myself in some fresh clothes. I didn't know what to do with my hair, I just tried to style it the best I could.

I came out the bathroom, Eleanor started to laugh.

"Nice hair" she smirked

"Right that's it!" I grabbed her by the waist and started tickling her, she laughed and tried to pull away

"How adorable" Harveen smiled, but still acting funny with me.

I let go of Eleanor and let her go dress in the bathroom.

"You want a drink?" I asked Harveen

"I don't want anything from you" she snarled back

I checked to see if the bathroom door was firmly shut.
