Lost In The Moment

Chapter Thirty Nine

"You asleep?" I asked and I felt Kelsey stir beside me.
"No," she sighed, adjusting her pillow, and I nodded slightly.
"What'd you wanna do?" I asked after a minute of silence and she groaned, rolling over to face me and moving her hair off her face.
"Sleep," she said and I went to pulled her into my arms but stopped and put my arm under my pillow instead. "Are you ok?" She asked hesitantly and I sighed.
"Can I..." I asked and she moved closer, putting one arm over my waist. I slipped one arm under her neck and the other over her waist.
"I love you Nathan," she whispered and I kissed her head.
After a couple minutes her breathing evened out and her soft snoring started, making me smile.

I woke up around 6:30am, slipped out of bed and was getting dressed when I heard Kelsey groan. I turned around and saw her laying on her stomach, her head on my pillow and her arm where I was just laying a minute ago.
"S-so c-cold," she stuttered sleepily and I chuckled, doing up my belt and walking over. I knelt down on the edge of the bed and tucked the blanket tightly around her before kissing her forehead, grabbing my jacket, and leaving.
I went to the store and got the breakfast sandwich Kelsey likes and a fruit bowl for myself before stopping at a coffeehouse on my way back to the hotel.
When I opened the door I heard the shower running and Kelsey's music playing. I put the bag and coffee down on the table before taking off my jacket, kicking off my shoes, and pulling my shirt over my head as I walked into the bathroom.

Kelsey's POV
I slept for another half hour after Nate left before getting up and turning on the shower.
I unbraided my hair and slipped out of my pyjamas before playing some music from my phone and getting in the shower.
I was rinsing the shampoo out of my hair and singing along to My Last Whiskey Tears, the piano rendition, when I heard the door open.
A minute later the shower curtain was pulled aside and Nate stepped in, a smirk on those perfect lips. He ran his hands around my stomach as he stepped closer to me and started kissing my neck before kissing me passionately, pushing me against the shower wall.

I braided my hair and was putting on my makeup while Nate got dressed and started on his breakfast.
"I don't know why you bother with that!" Nate called from the bedroom and I smiled as I plucked a few stray eyebrow hairs. "You're beautiful without makeup why do you wear it?" He asked as I put all my makeup away and turned down my music.
"So I feel pretty," I said as I walked out of the bathroom and sat down at the table. "As much as you say I'm pretty, I don't feel it," I explained and he sighed, chewing thoughtfully on a piece of cantaloupe.
"Anyway I could help?" He asked and I shook my head before taking a bite of my sandwich.
"Thanks though," I said and he smiled as he took a sip of his coffee.
"It's what I'm here for," he said before popping a grape in his mouth.
We finished breakfast and packed up before heading to the studio.
We spent the morning finishing up the first two tracks of the next EP.
"Hey you guys can work on the next songs without me right?" I asked, grabbing my jacket, and Jen nodded.
"Where're you going?" Mark asked and I sent a quick text to Nate.
Kelsey/ done <3
"Michigan, you can just email me the tracks," I said and Mike got up and gave me a quick hug. "W-what was that for?" I asked and he shrugged.
"Have fun," he said and I smiled, giving him a quick kiss on the cheek.
I gave Jen a kiss and said bye to everyone before leaving.
"Hey Kels!" Mark called and I turned to see him closing the door.
"What's up?" I asked and he sighed, stopping in front of me.
"So you and Nate are back together?" He asked and I nodded, a smile tugging at my lips.
"Yea we've got a lot to work through but we're trying," I said and he nodded and went to step back before stepping closer to me, cupping my face in his hand, and kissing me.
His kiss felt so right and so wrong at the same time. He put his other hand on my side and kissed me again as I hesitantly placed the tips of my fingers on his biceps.
"WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING?!" Nate yelled before Mark was ripped away from me. I gasped and looked over, barely glimpsing Nate hit Mark with a left hook.
"Nathan!" I screamed and he looked at me as Mark got up. "Nathan calm down and think," I said, my voice shaking as I stepped closer to him.
"What?" He asked and I swallowed, reaching out to touch him but he stepped away. "Did you kiss him?" He asked and I shook my head quickly.
"No! No, I didn't," I said and he stepped back again, narrowly missing a right hook from Mark.
"Nathan, Nathan please listen to me," I begged but he shook his head, turning and walking away.
