She slowly sat down on the bed as she watched Nathan grab his head in frustration.

"Nathan..", she spoke softly and cautiously as if she were talking to a ticking bomb, "just take deep breaths."

Nathan quickly stood up in an angry manor, "No! You don't fucking get it [your name]! Deep breaths won't solve shit!" He took a swig from his beer bottle.

Nathan and [Your Name] weren't very close, but they hung out quite a lot none the less. After all, being a vortex member meant she had to hang out with him. Ever since last month, she noticed something change in him. Although he was never that kind to begin with- something felt more odd about him than normal.

Nathan had tugged on her arm and asked to speak in private which she agreed to. He started to drag her towards the boys dorm, and eventually they made their way to his room. They had arrived in his room, and Nathan just sat down on his bed while [your name] stood and watched in silence. All of a sudden Nathan blew up, without telling her what was wrong. That's where we are now.

"Nathan!", she yelled in surprise, "Calm down!" Good one [your name]. Probably not the best thing to say right now.

"Don't fucking tell me what to do!", he screamed in her face, "you can't tell me what to do! Not you, not my parents, no one in this fucking town!"

She waited as he took a swig of his beer in silence to give him a bit of time to cool down. He sat back down on the bed.

"Listen", [your name] spoke in a soothing voice, "I don't know what you're going through right now, but I can't imagine how much stress it's putting you in."

And that was all she said as she wrapped an arm around his shoulders. They stayed like that for what could have been minutes, hours, days. That didn't matter. What did matter was that Nathan was feeling relaxed. She looked at him, fully taking in his features. He had baggy red eyes, that still looked beautiful to her. He ha-

"That's it.", Nathan stood up abruptly and [your name] gave him a confused look. "I need to tell you."

"Mr. Jefferson wants to kidnap you."
