Operation Takedown

True Colors Chapter: 5

" I can't believe I even acknowledged her" I say in complete shock. From what I heard, Summer is a very sneaky person. She gets her way, and if she doesnt our life is horrible. Nope. Im not that easy to manipulate! Summer even goes far enough to when your in serious danger.

" Im glad we agree on the same terms." Lily says.  Nate smirks and shifts on his seat before he looks at the grand clock on the wall. " I say we have and hour and a half to show Alex around." He states making eye contact with Lily.  She shrugs and nods and we stand up. " Now dont forget this is our  table for 1 year. Never sit at anyone elses table. y'know, im still shocked that Summer hasn't shown her true colors yet." Nate says smiling at me. Was he expecting an answer?

After about thirty minutes, we enter the history classroom. Lily sits in the first seat closest to the door and lays her head on the wooden desk. The history room was actually outstanding from the others. The walls were a bright pink and everything else was white except for the desks, those were blue. Even if it didnt match, it was still pretty. " This is the only room were not allowed in, im doing this for you Alex." Nate states. I shake my head and put a scowl on my face. " I dont want us to be in trouble for something were not supposed to do." " Oh, live it up a little" Nate and Lily say at the same time. I was startled when they suddenly burst out laughing. I shifted my position, foot to foot while the started to finish up laughing. " who's in there?" Everyone froze. I could feel my heart beating at top speed. If this was the first day here, I was im no mood to get in trouble. I heard keys jingle and saw the doorknob start to turn. " Hide!"  Lily whispers. I expertly dart to the back of the class and open up the closet door where Nate was. Where did Lily go? Nate pulls me into the closet just as the door swings open. I was deathly afriad of tight small spaces, so being squished up in a small closet with Nate was one less thing I can ask for. I held my breath when I realized Nate was doing the same. I dunno, maybe that'll help. When I start to feel dizzy, I lean up against Nate and he lets me. Wow, I actually feel...comfortable leaning up against Nate like this.

What am I saying? Yes, Nate is attractive but we just met. He obviously wants to be nothing more but friends. Heck, I  dont even know him like that.

I swear it was so dark I almost feel asleep from the rising and falling of Nates chest. Soon the foot steps dissappear, and I pushed open the door a little to see Lily looking for us.

I step out and stretch followed by Nate. That was definently the tight squeeze. " Oh, there you guys are I was looking all over for you!" Lily exclaims. I roll my eyes and Nate chuckles. " Im suprised the first place you didnt check was the closet." Nate jokes placing a hand on my shoulder. Lily takes a moment to think that through, then wiggles her eyebrows playfully " And what exactly were you too doing in there?" She says crossing her arms. I scoff, I was going to say something but Nate cuts me off. " It wouldn't matter Lillian, we arent like that." He says rolling his eyes.

" But you would want to?" Lily asks. I stay quiet.  Who knew Lily was that type of girl. Nate shrugs and keeps his hand on my shoulder. Now it was my turn to cross my arms.

Lily laughs as she opens the door to the history room and walks out. " C'mon before we get in more trouble." Nate says grabbing my hand. As we walk out still hand in hand, I blush and move it away, I didnt need any accusations for today. But I couldnt help but let my heart skip a beat thinking of the events in the closet. Not much happened, but I felt like something couldve if I let it.
