Playful Heart [4] Bad Things

Chapter Four

Bad Things

“I swear on everything holy and good in this world, if you do not sit still, I will throw you out of this car.” Nate threatened as we drove towards the bar we were meeting Giovanni at. Nate insisted I buy us a car, instead of using a taxi, so I caved and we went to get one after we left the airport. It wasn’t anything extraordinary either, just a regular car. Oh, and it was blue.

“Well when you get asked on a date by a hot guy, maybe you would understand the nerves going through me.” I snapped, putting my hands under my legs in hopes it would calm me down.

“Okay, first off, I like boobs and vaginas, and secondly, I don’t do dates. Unless it’s my mate. And speaking of mate, you shouldn’t let this thing with Giovanni turn into anything more than a date.”

“What thing? There is no thing. It’s just a date, god Nate.” I turned my head to look out the window, but I could practically see Nate smiling like an idiot.

“Lawd. I did not know my child was gay. What am I to do? What if he comes home one night and says he got a dic – “

“Shut up Nathaniel!” I snapped. “I highly doubt that I’m gay. Maybe curious? I don’t know, but I do know that I like Giovanni and I want to get to know him. Is that such a problem?”

“It is when he’s not your mate,” He deadpanned and I narrowed my eyes at him. Would he drop this mate thing? Maybe I wanted to date Giovanni, and even if I did, that wouldn’t mean anything. As soon as my mate showed up, I would tell him everything, make a clean break up and go to my mate. And if that didn’t work, then I would see if my mate would mind if we say other people. As long as we weren’t bonded, the pull and feelings wouldn’t be strong, so there would be no hurt in seeing them with another person.

Nate just didn’t get that though. He was old school just like everyone else in our pack.

“Judging from your silence and the fact that you look about ready to slaughter everyone, I will change the topic.” I let out a sigh of relief, but realized it was too soon. “Your outfit is ah-mah-zing! I cannot believe you are making it work like that. I’ve seen men in leather pants, but honey, you rock it better.” I rolled my eyes and smirked at him and he smiled.

“See? I got you to smile.”

“No, you got me to smirk, there’s a difference.” I shot back at him and he scoffed, waving his hand in my face.”

“You say potato I say tomato.” He sighed.

“I thought it was you say tomato, I say tamato?”  I asked, cocking my head at him.

“I thought it was you say tomato, I say tamato.” He mocked and I groaned. Bear with it for now Nikolai. Once we get to the club, I would leave mister grumpy pants and dance in the arms of my beloved Giovanni.

Whoa, what?

“Are we almost there?” I asked, trying to make my voice sound less panicked than it already was. Why would I think of something like that? I didn’t know one thing about this guy and I was already acting like I was in love with him. The car turned down a street filled with cars and Nate squinted his eyes.

“Judging by the crowd, I’d say yes. Now if only I could find a parking spot.” We found one a couple of blocks away, but I made no complaint of walking seeing as it would piss Nate off. I got out of the car and looked down nervously at my outfit. See, I had planned to wear some nice fitting jeans, a white shirt and black blazer, keeping it clean and classy. But Navaeh decided to call and Nate filled her in on everything, not leaving out a single detail. This then consisted of her yelling at me after I told her what I was wearing, and somehow, I ended up in a pair of tight leather pants I had no clue I owned, a metallic tank top with a mesh fabric around the collar, a gray blazer and some black boots by the time she hung up.
