  -'Nathan , what are you doing here ?'

He was walking towards our table when my look crossed the one of the blonde girl of last night next to him , her face wasn't showing happiness anyway .

-'How is your day , my love .' He added and I felt a sudden need to vomit .

His dear and his love , God that was too much . I wondered what happened to the guy !

Then he got down kissing me in the cheek.' Please , save me from her .' He whispered in my ear .

-'You have purposely brought me here.' She started. ' You have knew this bitch will be here , right ?'

-'Hey you , who are you calling a bitch ?' Taylor interfered as he started getting mad . Both Nathan and I looked surprised by the gentleman-like intervention.

-'Sorry for you girl , but it's clear whom Nathan has chosen .' I crossed my arms , raising an eye brow for her enjoying the role .

-'But , look at her , she is going out with a guy a way more handsome than you , Nathan .' I knew she was talking about Taylor without even looking at her finger which was pointed at him .

A waiter suddenly interrupted the scene , putting a couple of cupcakes on the table .

-'Sorry , but I'm afraid you should solve your problems out .' He explained politely .

-'It's ok , she's going to leave anyway .' Taylor responded pointing back at the girl.

-'Yeah , goodbye .' I added , like a cheerleader .

-' I can't believe .' Her face expressions were literally priceless . I would have started pitying her if she didn't call me a bitch .

-'Sorry , I do love her .' Nathan put his arm around me and I shivered from disgust. ' I think you should move on , and find someone good for you , like I did .' I was on the verge of laughing and it was really hard to swallow it , so I kept shaking my head approving the bullshit Nathan kept improvising at the very moment .

She finally threw an insulting 'son of a bitch' to Nathan who awkwardly didn't look insulted , then she turned her heels out .

-'Just to mention, the handsome and I are just neighbors .' I felt the need to add that , when she was leaving .

A heavy silence settled between the three of us and I found 2 missed calls from Andy . I bet she has already gone crazy .

-'So , you are Nathan .' Taylor managed to cut the weird silence , a shine of interest in his eyes , when I decided to text Andy .

-'Yes. Has she talked to you about me ?'

-'Kind of .'

-'What did she say ? That we are friends?' Nathan questioned further , his stupid smirk on his face .

-'No , I didn't .' I responded in defense .

-'Hopefully, cause we are nothing like siblings , or friends , you know it's quiet complicated .' I didn't know why his explanation suddenly made another sense than I guess he wanted .

-'I know you're not just friends.' My heart menaced to jump from my chest as Taylor said that .

-'And we're not ...'

-'And the both of you, are ?' Nathan succeeded to cut me off .

-'We are friends .'

-'We are neighbors.'

We said at the same time . And there was a shadow of disappointment in his eyes and a slight of an apology in mine as our gazes kept locked for a short while .

-'So you are friends , who live next each other .' Taylor was silent , his eyes focused on the intact pancake in front of him , as I simply shook my head in approval .

-'However.' Nathan seemed to have his talkative moment not knowing how intense was the feeling between Taylor and me . ' So , Jules , you will of course pay me a pancake ? Right ?'

-'No way , you already owe me one for that mess earlier .'

-'You're kidding right ?

-'Obviously not .' I didn't know why fighting with Nathan like five-year old kids was awkwardly funny .

-'How can you be this disconsidering'? Did you forget that I saved you last night?'

-'It's OK . OK Nathan , just shut up .'

But of course he didn't .

-'Did your neighbor told you that I saved her vagina from a ...'

-'Hey You ! How the hell dare you ?' My voice was louder than I it should be . I couldn't believe Taylor had just heard that bullshit . I swear I was capable of killing Nathan Calloway with my two bare hands .

-'Damn it Jules .' Taylor added with a little smirk giving me a piercing look .' I didn't know a simple pancake is more worthy than your virginity ?' His face was showing a little smile as he got on his full high and left putting in the table two intact cupcakes and a money for three.

I kept silent in shock for the whole coming minutes trying to fathom what just happened.

-'That guy is really something .' Nathan finally succeeded taking me off from my temporally mental break down , and at that wild moment , I remembered that the Calloway was still there .

-'You stupid prick ! You idiotic self-centered bastard ! You ... You ... .' I was really angry but I was also running out of insults . It wasn't like I had a big variety anyway . 'I'm going to kill you. I'm really thinking about hitting you with a chair and throw your body in the garbage can .'

-'Jeez , you really need to stop watching thrillers .' He answered calmly .

-'You are so dead Nathan .' I yelled at him not succeeding to get down my temper .

-'Hey just calm down , they will get us fired .'

-' I'm afraid I have to .' The waiter of earlier appeared again next our table and he started to pack the cup cakes .

-' I think you and I should never meet in a public place again .' Nathan added casually , his hands shoved in his jeans as we finally got out . ' We have been causing scenes since the first time we met .'

-'And we won't meet ever again .' I shot back .

-'I hope so , but we have things to do first .'

-' What do you want me to do ? Let's end this shit as quick as possible .'

A satisfied smirk was drawn in his face as he started explaining what he assumed I have to do ...

-'Over my dead body .' I responded surprised .' This is so ... No No No , I refuse .'

-'No way .' He added not showing a speck of disappointment .

-' Isn't there any 2nd plan ? You know something less devilish ? We can just talk with them for example .' I suggested knowing for sure that he won't change his mind .

-' Like it's going to change something .'

-'But you have to respect my opinion . It matters !'

-'Look Jolene , my goal won't stop for anyone . Your mother have to get fucking away from my father .Either you support me or I make it happen on my own , and in my way . '
