Nathan x Ian

surprises and mistakes

Nathan's POV
Its been a week since Ian and I had that little incident. I always see him in the hallways, he either smirks at me, winks, or bites his lip. Fuck. We met up two days ago at my house, and things got pretty heated... In a good way.. Let's just say I make a good bottom.

Currently passing period to 5th period and I have lunch.. With Ian.. My face instantly flushed red and my palms started to get sweaty. Whenever I'm near him, I get so nervous. But he's so cool and confident to make the next move.

I arrive to lunch, approaching the picnic table areas. Seeing my friends I usually sit with. Justin, Kaimi, Skye, Taylor, Thaddeus, Ian, Jon, and Zada. Sitting on the purple wall and facing Zada, as she's already here. She says
"Hey Nathan!" and smiles while putting her bags down next to her and sitting down. Next comes Taylor as he sits next to Zada, and they start to talk. Jon walks in and sits in front of Taylor. Justin, Thaddeus, and Kaimi come walking in talking about some meme. Typical of them. Skye comes in, sitting next to me on the wall and she starts saying something about Geometry but I couldn't focus on her. My mind drifted off to Ian. His charming smile, muscular arms, and the way he-

"Hey Nathan." my thoughts were suddenly cut off by a familiar voice talking to me.. Ian.. He was wearing a purple dry fit Polo, long khaki pants, black shoes, and his glasses. Those damn glasses. Fuck he's so hot in them..

"Hey Ian.." I mumble shyly looking away as he comes and sits next to Skye. The table gets quiet and everyone looks and Ian and I.

"What the fuck are you guys looking at." Ian spat and grabbed his lunch out of his bag while rolling his eyes. Jon laughs and says

"Why so angry, Ian? We're just admiring your beauty." He turns back around and Ian grabs him by his collar and lifts him up saying

"Shut the fuck up, bitch." and dropping him on the floor , then walking away to go warm up his food.

Jon gets up, dusting himself off and walking back over to us.

"You just got your ass beat by Ian." I say while laughing and pointing at him.

"I mean.. Let's not front, Nathan. You did too. Last night.." Thaddeus says and laughs while eating his food, I hate him so much..

"I heard my name, Thaddeus. If you wanna talk shit, say it to my face." Ian comes back with his food in his hand and walking towards him. Thaddeus looks up at him and saying

"I'm just saying Ian, Nathan can't hide those hickeys very well." as he turns back and smirks while taking another bite of her food. My face turns bright red as I forgot Ian left at least 7 hickeys all over my neck and I tried to cover it up with my track and field jacket. Goddamnit. He doesn't say anything. Just walks over to Skye and sits next to her, everyone goes silent again. Justin looks at Ian and says

"H-Hey Ian... Ian.. Hear me out.. When you yawn, do you say 'me'?" everyone starts laughing to change the subject. Jon joins in on the jokes and says

"Since Ian is God, do we say 'Thank Ian' or 'Ian Bless you.'?" I start to laugh and looking over at Ian he's shaking his head and a small smile on his face.

"Hey Losers. What the fuck are you guys laughing at?" a voice says, looking up I see...

Jackson.. He's back.. No..

"Babe. Why are you sitting with these losers?" Jackson says and laughs while looking at us.

Babe?

Who's he calling babe?

He then puts his arm around Zada.. No.. How could she.. When did this start?! She rolls her eyes and says

"Don't call my friends that, and stop being such an asshole to people. We talked about this." He then sits down next to her, putting his arm around her and he looks at me, smirking. Goddamnit Zada! What do you see in this prick?! I glance over to Ian, and he looks like he's gonna murder someone. He stares at Zada and she glances at him, then gives him a small nod. She gets up from the table and grabs Jackson's hand, tugging him to go inside the cafeteria. As they leave, everyone starts talking.

"How could she?!"

"What is she thinking?"

"Does she really think they're gonna last?"

"What does she see in him??"

"Zada fucked up.. Badly."

My thoughts exactly. Aren, a good friend of ours, comes walking past us and everyone's attention goes to him.

"AREN!" Justin, Kaimi, and Thaddeus yell. That's their Bestfriend, it's pretty cute. It's like a love triangle. He looks at them and smiles, walking towards our table.

"Aren.. Since when did Zada and Jackson start dating?" Ian asks and looks up at him

"Uhhh.. I around last month. They've been a thing for a while. Why?" he asks and leans on the table

"Nothing." Ian replies and keeps eating his food. Zada and Jackson walks back out and she's laughing, and he is too. She looks happy. But why with him? No. He's my bully.. He fucking punches me and beats me up, and doesn't even care.. My heart starts to sink and my chest starts to get heavy thinking about the last time. She walks up to me, with him behind her. He grasps onto her hip and gets closer. I look away and she says

"Nathan. I heard what happened and all these incidents that has happened. On my behalf, I would like to apologize for all of his actions and misdoings he's done to you. Babe.."

He looks at me, blank stare on his face.
"Oh yeah.. Uh. Bro.. I'm sorry about everything, it's my bad. It's not gonna happen again. She's made me realize some things, and I know an apology won't heal the wounds, but I want to restart this. I'm so sorry, Nathan. You too Ian. I'm sorry for putting you though so much, and teasing you both. Please, forgive me."

He says and looks down at his shoes and then back up at Ian and I. I feel as he really means it, but I can't forgive him so fast.

Narrator POV

"Y-Yeah.. To new beginnings.." Nathan looks and shyly smiles. Ian looks up and nods, then looking away, not completely agreeing. Zada smiles and says

"Thank you, thank you both." as she starts to walk away, right when she turns her back to them, Jackson rolls his eyes at us and flips Ian and Nathan off. Ian sees this and gets up then charges right towards him. He swings right at his jaw. His face hits the table, as Ian yells

"Burn in hell, fucker." while Ian reaches in his pocket and brings out a pocket knife and opens it. Anger shot through his veins, he didn't think twice but he just wanted to kill. Everyone is in shock. As Ian swings down, stabbing, someone gets in the way...

Looking down, to see the brunette haired boy, laying on the floor with a knife in his chest..
