Phasing Heart

Gotta Let Loose A Little Somehow

     A few hours later, I get hungry. I'm still not sure though if Nathan has calmed down any. Maybe I can go without getting caught by him.

     I sneakily phase through doors and walls to get to the kitchen. When I get there, I go to a cabinet and grab my box of French Toast Sticks. Then, the sound of footsteps could be heard making their way towards me. In a panic, I phase through the wall and end up outside. I quickly run around the mansion to go to the garden outback. I climb up a tall tree and perch myself on a high up branch.

     Sitting on the branch, I look about the grounds. I watch the guards walk around while I also  take in the scenery of beautiful plants that surround a small pond. A gorgeous statue sits in the middle of the water in the shape of three fish jumping out of it. That's when an idea springs into my devious yet fragile little mind.

     After looking around, I go over to the pond when I make sure the coast is clear. I strip myself down to nothing but my underwear to which I then put everything into a neat pile. Finally setting the box of French Toast Sticks down on top. Once that's done, I step back to get a running start and I think you can guess what I did. I fucking cannon-balled into the pond. I swim up to the surface and float on my back while shutting my eyes. Now this. This is relaxation.

     "What the absolute hell are you doing?" A voice came from beside the pond. I didn't even open my eyes, already knowing it's Nathan.

    "Gotta let loose a little somehow." I playfully say back.

     "Well, I heard a huge splash and came to check it out. I went back to your room and didn't find you there, so I thought for the worst."

     "Just chillin'."

     "Alright then. Now's better than ever. I'm ever to sorry about earlier. I over reacted again."

     "Yeah what was that about?"

     "Let's just say....a private matter really irritated me."

     "Must have been ba- AHH!" I gurgle as I just so happen to float right under the fountain. The stream of water going straight into my face.

     "Hmmhmmhmm-hehe-ha-HaHaHah!" Nathan burst out laughing. As soon as I gain my composure, I start to laugh as well. I swim over to edge and Nathan helps pull me out. I look at him and chuckle to myself when I see how red his face is from laughing so hard. I don't think he's had a good laugh like that in a while. Just what I think though.

     Going over to put my clothes back on, Nathan seemed to be studying me. He then asks, "Where did you get all those scars?"

     "Huh? Oh these?" I gesture to all over my body. "Well these bad boys are from my 'homeless fights' as Chris refers to them."

     "Chris?"

     "Yeah Chris. Oh, I mean Royal Kill. Heehee. Every time he sees at least one of them, he teases me about how he lived high class. You'd think it'd be offensive, but he turns it into a huge joke. Happens all the time though because of this monster." I lift up my bangs and show him the huge gash I have on my forehead that looks too deep for anyone's comfort.

     "Hmm...Doesn't Royal Kill own a famous club or something?"

     "Yeah, he owns Lost Paradise. I tell you, I fucking love that place!" When dressed, I go over to Nathan and hold out the box. After shaking it in his face a little, he slowly takes out a French Toast Stick.

     "Go on. Eat it." I tell him cheerfully. He gets slightest bit of pink added to his cheeks as he goes to eat it. "Well?" I ask when he finishes.

     "It's good." He simply says. I jump up and hold his arm while yelling, "I knew you'd like them!" Nathan turns his head to the side so I wouldn't see his red face that would make Grell jealous. Yeah, I watch anime. Get used to it. But I will say that there are certainly better ones than Black Butler. I suggest Hellsing.

     I swiftly hop off of him and apologize, "Sorry, sorry. I must stink from jumping into that pond. I think I should go shower." He realizes what I said and got a little relieved when he thinks it's because I stink being the reason he turned away.

     "Alright. Umm...well....when you get out, dinner should be ready. See you then." Nathan quickly walks away to do whatever it is he does. That guard I had talked to the other day, I believe his name is Thomas, came around.

     I ask him, "What was that about?" He merely shrugs and we walk back to my room together while having a delightful conversation. When I get there, I say bye and I go get my stuff for a shower.
