When we got to Nathan's house the lights were off and everyone was in bed so when he climbed up the stairs I asked him where the first aid kit was..

"Um..... It's upstairs in a box beside my parents room. I'll get it. " he groans as he says this because he's in a lot of pain.

I wait for him at the top of the stairs and I fidget from one heel to another. It was very dark and the only light illuminating the whole house is the light coming from a room I guess belongs to his sisters because of its baby pink wallpaper with white paint splashes of paint.

Nathan returns with a bag in his hand and leads me to his room down the hallway holding my hand tightly like someone or something was going to snatched me.

His room is not the usual boys room with clothes on the floor and a type of ball in the corner and a messy bed and whatnot. His room is white like the walls are white without any stain, his clothes are in his wardrobe which is closed and he has a desk with a laptop in the corner beside the window that has a very good view of the street.

He lead me to his bed which is the only messy thing about his room and sits down on it wincing on pain when my hand goes to his eye.

"I'm so sorry. Seth is usually not like this. "I start to apologize because it's partly my fault.

" It's okay. I hit him pretty good too. " he smiles.

I open the bag and use a cotton wool soaked in methylated spirit to dab the corner of his eye and he winces again but this time even I can tell that it's so much worse.

" Sorry. " I apologize yet again and take a small band-aid, rip off the thingy and put it at the bruise. I lean down and kiss it because that's what my dad always did and it stuck.

" Thank you. " he smiles.

" You're welcome. But I better get going. " I start to turn away but he grabs my hand and lunges me forward.

" Don't. I'm sure mom won't mind you staying over. It's late and I don't want anything to happen to you. " he takes my hand and starts drawing circles on my palm sending tingles round my body.

I smile and nod my head in agreement. Mom and Val would just have to wait to hear the outcome of the night. I sit on him opening my legs so that his are in between mine. I wrap my arms around his neck and lean down smiling. He just stays there staring at me so I take his hands and put them on my waist.

I place a kiss on his band aid then on his cheek and finally go to his lips kissing him thoroughly but gently. He doesn't do any thing at first but Nathan junior down there makes it quite obvious that his having fun. He kisses me lightly and I almost loose control of the situation. His hands stay there where I put them and I'm not sure if he's shy or he just wants me to get comfortable.

"You can open the zipper you know. " I whisper in his ear but he still doesn't do anything so I decide that he's probably shy.

I kiss him again and he responds quickly this time but still as light as the other one. I push him unto the bed and unbutton his shirt but I don't go farther and for the first time that night he kisses me hungrily.

The sunlight partially blinds me as I yawn and open my eyes. Ew morning breath. When I wake up I reach for the hand around my waist I realize that they're not there because they used to be Seth's. He would cuddle with me at night or any chance he'd get but I looked over at Nathan and he's holding unto the covers with his eyes shut and is sleeping soundly. No sound whatsoever.
