PART 18
I quickly got myself dressed in jeans and a t-shirt, and tried to tame my hair. I didn’t bother putting on any makeup, as I knew I would probably cry it all off. I grabbed a hoodie, which just so happened to be my “I love Nathan Sykes” hoodie. I threw it on the floor, and grabbed my dancer jumper instead, and headed out the door.
The park was only a five minute walk away from mine, and I spent the entire journey planning what I was going to say to him. I didn’t want to be too harsh. As much as I hated him, I was still his girlfriend. He kind of deserved respect for wanting to see me. A lot of guys would have broken up with me after the show that I put on last night. I got to the park, and sat on the bench where we had agreed to meet. I checked my phone, and I had a text from Jay:
Good luck with Nath, stay calm ok? Hear him out J x
I grinned. I guessed that Nathan was probably innocent, the amount of texts I had received telling me to forgive him. That’s when I saw him. He had a small bunch of roses in one hand, and was looking down at the floor while slowly walking towards me. I got up and walked towards him, not knowing whether to slap him or kiss him. He looked up at me when we finally met, and it looked like he had just been crying. He handed me the roses.
“These are for you Rachel. I’m so sorry, but you have to understand, I didn’t kiss her. At all. The thing is...I’m in love with you Rachel and I can’t live without you. I would never do anything to hurt you. I-“
I cut him off by falling into his arms. I couldn’t help it. I knew that he didn’t mean it. It just meant that I would have to keep an eye on that Vicki girl.
“I love you Nathan.” I whispered into his chest, tears rolling down my face.
“I love you too.” We pulled apart, and I smiled meekly. His gorgeous eyes were filled with tears, which he quickly blinked away. He bent down and kissed me lightly on the cheek, and I blushed slightly. His phone started blasting out a ringtone, which made us both jump, and then start laughing. He looked at his phone. It was Jayne calling. He answered it quickly.
“Hello...yeah give me a sec...” He put his phone on loudspeaker and held it in-between the two of us, “ok done, now what was it you wanted to say?”
“Ok first of all I’m glad that you two are ok again. Secondly, Rachel, how would you feel about moving in with the boys?”
