Jordyn's POV

I woke up in my parents bed. My mothers familiar vanilla scent still in the sheets.
Snuggling into the sheets, i thought over everything I had to do today.
I needed to go to the bank and get the whole financial situation figures out then I had to go back to the unit and look for more clues about Isabelle.

I tossed the covers from over my body and walked downstairs, skipping steps. I made myself a cup of coffee and ate a banana and grabbed my key, making my way out the door.

¤Ω¤Ω¤Ω¤Ω¤

"Miss Leigh, your dad 5 separate accounts set up. Each of which contain a good amount of money. And with you being his only family member left, its all yours".
Wow. How did my father even get the money to have 5 whole accounts. We had been struggling for many years, he couldn't have possible afforded it.

"Um. In all, how much money are you talking about?" he coughed and straightened his tie.
"Um. Adding all the account together, $972,289". Well Damn. Almost a million dollars. Where was he even getting all this money?
"And when will this money be accessible?" he flipped through all the papers.
"In about 2 weeks". I nodded my head and got up.
"Thank you". He nodded and i walked out the door.

What else has my father been hiding from me?

¤Ω¤Ω¤Ω¤Ω¤

"I knew you couldn't resist me". I smirk over at Nate as i walked through the door.
"You were the one who showed up at my house". All the guys 'ooo' and Nate pretended to be hurt.
"I thought were friends". His hand was over his heart and pretended to cry.
"And i thought you weren't a fuck boy, but hey, things happen". He tried to keep a straights face but i could see the end of his lips curl up.
"Just common. Ill take you to your unit". I followed behind Nate, fiddling the key in my hand.

"Common Nate. Help me". I whined, pulling on the bottom of the metal door.
"Nope. Apparently we aren't friends". He smirked and i collapsed to the floor, giving up.
"Common princess". He helped pull me up and hen lifted the door. I blushed and then smiled wide.
"Thank you!"

I made my way inside and started looking through boxes.
Nate helped me look. I told him to just look for anything suspicious.

2 hours passed and i was sitting between Nate's legs, each of us going though papers.
"Ugh. Im exhausted". He sigh and nodded his head, then resting it on my shoulder.
"Yea. By the way, is someone in your family adopted?" my eyebrows pulled together, confused.
"No, why". He reached over the many piles of things and held up a think packet. I snatched it from it looking over it carefully.

"This was exactly what I was looking for. I stood up quick and made my way for the door.
"Aye ma! Where you goin'". nate jumped to his feet and walked over to me.
"Um. I need to go". He stepped closer, i could feel the heat fro. His body on mine. He had a look of confusion. Hell, I would too.
"What's going on?" i looked down at the papers not wanting to answer his question.
"Nothing Nate, i have to go". I turned around quickly but he grabbed my arm turning me to face his. I could feel his chest on mine.
"Let me go with you". I shook me head but he wouldn't give up. "Please?" giving in i agreed and we walked back to the lobby. He made sure leaving with me would be okay with Johnson and then we were on our way.

"Get some". I could hear the boys yelling in the back round but i ignored them. The only thing Nate would be gettin is some Taco Bell for me.

¤Ω¤Ω¤Ω¤Ω¤

"Why are we here?" i ignored his question and hopped out of the car.
Nate followed me into the big brick building.

"Hello, how may i help you?" the blonde woman at the desk forced a smile at me, her yellow teeth nearly rotting away. I glanced over at Nate quickly, seeing the disgust on his face.

"Well, im looking for information on my sister. She was put into the system when she was younger and now im trying to find her". She gave me another face but this time full of sorrow. I hated when people pretend they care.
"Im sorry, ma'am. We can't give out that information. Unless".
"Unless what?"Nate put his hand on my shoulder, trying to calm me down.
"Unless you are trying to adopt her". I looked at my feet.

I have the money. But she doesn't even know me.
"Wait, has she been adopted yet? Isabelle Leigh". She typed numerous things into her computer and them looked up at me.
"Isabelle Leigh. She was adopted when she was 3 and now goes by Isabelle Miyer. That's all the Information i can give you bu-" before she could finish, i stormed out the door and to my car.

I slammed my hands on the steering wheel.
"Hey, hey, hey". I could feel Nate's presence beside me. "Its okay-"
"No it's not! She's all i have left!" tears fell down my face and he quickly wiped them away.

"What do you mean? What about your p-"
"My parents?" my voice got louder as the rage pumped through my veins. "They're dead Nate. Gone. They are never coming back and now she could possibly be the only person i have left!" i could tell he was taken back by my words. I didn't blame him. I also wouldn't blame him if he just disappeared. Left. They all do once they realized how fucked up I am.

But instead of hopping out of the car and walking away. Nate pulled me into a hug. My head buried into his chest. I sobbed softly.

After sitting there for a while we switched seats. He was driving, his hand on my leg the entire time. It was silent but comfortable.

"Common princess", Nate mumbled, helping me out of the car. "Jump". I jumped and wrapped my arms and legs around him, my head in the crook of his neck.
He carried me up stairs and set me on the sink. I watched him carefully as he ran a warm bath them dropped a Victoria's Secret bath bomb in.
"Get in. Ill be here when you get out". I nodded not making eye contact as he left the bathroom, shutting the door behind him.

Nate's POV

I don't do this. I don't stay with a girl for more than one day. But i just can't leave her. She needs me more than ever right now. My thoughts were interrupted by the sound of the bathroom door opening. I realized the random room i walked into was hers. She walked in a stood in front of her closet. She slipped on a pair of lacy underwear then dropped her towel. Her hair flowed down her bare back.
She was so beautiful. Then she quickly slipped on a big grey shirt and spanks. She walked over and lay on her bed, me sitting at the edge.

I stripped down to just my boxers and lay down, wrapping my arm around her torso.
"Is this okay, princess". I could feel the hair on the back of her neck stand up.
"Yea". She whispered sliding closer to me and i hugged her tighter.

"Goodnight Nate".

"Goodnight princess".
