You and Nathan walked down the hall hand in hand, you swung your hands back and forth. Nathan slightly chuckled at how energetic you were.
"What's up with you?" he asked quite curious as to what had you so giddy

"My photography class just has me in a good mood.." you smiled

Nathan's half smile quickly left his face
"Oh yeah? What..what happened?"

"You know how I moved here because of the photography teacher? Mr Jefferson?" you took his other hand and stopped walking,you stood in front of him.

He looked away from you,frowning a bit
"Yeah..you've told me about him.."

"Well he wanted to see me after class, I was so nervous and I thought my shots for the project were bad but he told me that they were amazing! And that he'd love to see more of my work. The Mark Jefferson likes my work! Can you belive that?!"

Nathan felt happy for you he truly did, seeing you so happy was great but...he knew about Mr.Jefferson. He knew about the dark room, and it made him feel sick to even think about you being around him. He feared that he'd become smitten with you. Not like in love with you...more like interested in how he could snap pictures of you in his Dark Room.

Nathan put on a fake smile and nodded
"Wow," he pretended to be excited, "I'm so happy for you!"

"Not only that! but it means I actually have a shot at winning the Everyday Heroes Contest!"

"The what..?" he looks at you, confused

"Well it's this contest where I submit a photo and if it wins I get to go with my photography teacher to see it in the museum! We'll take a plane and everything!"

Nathan frowns again as he feels his heart drop into his stomach, you and Jefferson alone far away makes him even more sick. He gulps and puts on a smile again, it seems more nervous this time
"That's..great." he lets go of your hands and takes you in his arms tightly. To be honest, he was afraid you'd end up in Jefferson's dark room.
