NATI
"Can we PLEASE get to wedding planning while you're here?! I'm all alone I need help"
I sighed heavily it's not that I don't love my sister I do but I wanted to just relax with my remaining days off and she wasn't understanding that, she was actually starting to get on my nerves.
"Well you know if you could just stick to the things you planned originally instead of constantly changing your mind then you wouldn't have this problem would you?"
"Are you serious right now?"
"I'm sorry but.... I can't do this right now I have a few days off before I go out to California and I just want to enjoy them...."
"Nat...... I'm alone here. I'm nineteen and getting married..... I don't know what the hell im doing..."
"Elle don't take it the wrong way-"
"How else am I supposed to take it?"
"Not personally? I'm tired.... I just want to do what I want to do before I leave...."
"You know you're being pretty selfish nautica...."
"How is that me being selfish? I'm gone busting my ass, traveling with people who don't even bother to talk to me, away from you guys and running on little sleep.... how is it selfish of me to want to take some time to myself?"
Neither of us said anything else she went to her room slamming the door shut and I left the house to go do some shopping, Sebastian was growing fast and needed new clothes plus I needed some things then I went grocery shopping for my sister and as I was shopping I was tapped on the shoulder.
"Hey, Nati...."
"You're everywhere aren't you?"
"Happy to see you too....."
"I'm sorry. It's just.... you literally seem to somehow be everywhere that I go."
He cracked a smile "I haven't seen you for months...."
"I haven't been around. I figured you probably weren't either mister superstar...."
"And I figured you were just avoiding me as usual...."
"No. I've been gone for work. I'm back until Thursday then I leave for California...."
"Busy woman huh?"
"Like you wouldn't believe......it's been crazy and difficult "
"Well what are your plans for the night?"
"Honestly I was pretty harsh on Elle earlier so I need to make it up to her, I'm starting to feel bad for going off on her."
"Care to talk about it? Maybe over lunch?"
I bit my lip I was being a bitch.... but I just didn't want to get into this kind of mess. "I.... I can't... Nick I'm sorry not today, I still have so much to get done today and like I said I have to make it up to my sister so I want to get home fast."
"Right..." he said looking disappointed "I get it. You like to run from guys..."
I stared at him in disbelief "what?"
"It's. a bit obvious.... you're afraid to get close to guys.... I don't know what you've been through so I don't get it, I don't think I ever will either because you probably won't give me the time of day."
"I swear I'm not making something up just to get away from you, I..... definitely don't want to talk about it in the middle of a grocery store " I said laughing a bit which made him crack a smile "too many nosey people...."
"It's fine. I just thought maybe you'd come around...."
"I swear. Look if you're not busy tonight then stop by? We're going to have a little get together."
"Aaaahh you're inviting me over? Do you feel okay?"
"Still got jokes I see?"
"Well usually you do whatever you can to get away from me "
"So you'll let me know then?"
"So, I'll just show up at your door and say hey sorry I can't make it?"
"I have to admit you're funny. I'm going to give you my number but please don't make me regret this..."
"So, I should text you all the time right?"
"I will change my number so fast......"
"Why are you so difficult?"
"Why are you so persistent?"
All he did was look at me and smile "I will let you know okay? See you later..."
When I got home I sat down with my sister to help her finalize everything and have some wine, I realized how much I missed laughing with her and just being home in general. We were having friends over tonight so I needed to get started with cleaning up everything then getting food ready, it was kinda a pool party and I couldn't wait to have fun tonight. I did feel a little nervous about Nick coming over or if he even would my sister insists I have feelings for him but I hardly know him which is probably why I'm nervous, but I guess being friends wouldn't hurt.
"Doing okay in here?" I jumped and he laughed
"Fine. Yes. Glad you could make it..."
"Well. An miss out on being around you? No way"
"So, how have you been?"
"Been okay. But, I've also been thinking about you "
"About me? Why."
He gently grabbed my hand and looked me in my eyes "nautica, I can't lie anymore. I don't know what it is about you but, you have a hold on me. Please. Give me the chance?"
"Nick, I think we should talk about this privately... I have things to finish before everyone is over and, I just don't want to talk around everyone"
"I understand that, can I at least help you?"
We finished everything up and soon enough everyone arrived, it was a long night but a fun night and once everyone started leaving Nick was the only one left.
"I guess this wouldn't be a good time to talk huh? It's kinda late. I have to go for training tomorrow but, I also know you're leaving again..."
"Well, we can take a rain check...I'll see you later Nick"
I shut the door behind him and went to bed and before I knew it I was off again .
