Hoping

Natalie's POV

" What are you doing here?" I asked Christian as he entered my cabin. He gave me a duh look.

" Leo went to meet your Dad." He said sitting on the visiting chair. I looked at him weirdly. 

" Good." I said thinking about the consequences of his meeting my dad. I thought for a second thinking about the worst possibility. " Alright, not good I think." I said.

" Played the worst possibilities in your head?" He asked and I nodded. " Same here." He said.

" I just hope Dad doesn't get mad." I said.

" I think he won't." He said.

" But I don't trust Leo in this. He can act like a fool." I said.

" He won't relax. He is serious about you though you haven't confess to him." He said to me.

" I don't believe in that word. But I am trying to accept my feelings." I told him.

" Someday you will believe that exists and you will give it the value. You need to trust in yourself." He said.

" I think I still need time." I said.

" Take your time." He said.

" If something goes wrong then I will regret about it later, this why I want to take it slow." I said.

" Don't let him go. Though I am sure he won't leave you ever even if you try to leave him. Still just don't make him feel you are not happy with him. Just try to give your relationship a chance. I bet you won't regret about it later." He said.

" Thinking about it." I said.

" Just let your insecurities go for once. You can't live like this. Time to be happy. And you deserve it." He said and I tried to smile.

" Done with your fake smile." He rolled his eyes and I laughed.

" Don't forget this smile worked on Joseph Hendricks. Otherwise there must be a big blunder on the wedding day." I said smirking at him.

" Don't take that Busta*d's name in front of me. He is lucky enough that I let him go and suffer in the jail instead of shooting him directly in his brain. He should be thankful for that. But I swear if I see him again no one will be able to save him from me." He said gritting his teeth. Yeah, I mean he is right. If even I see that busta*d I will do the same. My dad almost killed him but Christian said we no need to do it. He will suffer anyway.

" Then why did you let him go that time?" I asked him.

" I just thought like a matured person. If we kill him then his family will be after us. This why I didn't kill him. He better suffer in the jail. Besides if we kill him he will get rid of the pain at once but if we make him suffer and spoil his reputation that will eat him alive every time. It will be more painful than death." He said.

" You're evil sometimes but your ideas are good." I admitted.

" I know that." He said.

" Full of yourself too." I said.

" Yeah, know that either." He said.

" Want coffee?" I asked him.

" Yeah. Make it 2." He said and I heard a knock.

" Come in." I said. The next moment I saw widely smiling Leo entering the cabin. I looked at him raising one of my eyebrows. He smiled more.

" What happened?" I asked.

" You can guess that why bother to ask me." He said.

" I can't now tell me." I said looking at him.

" Got the permission." He said.

" Woah!!! How? I mean was Dad angry? Did he shout at you or threatened you? Did you do any stupidity?" I asked him.

" Slow down and keep your curiosity on the bay cause I am not going to reveal things." Hesaid and winked at me. I glared at him.

" Tell us already." I said.

" Nah, Babe." He said smirkingly.

" Ok, break up. I won't date with a guy who is so much secretive." I said. " Even Jonny is better than that." I said.

" Who is Jonny now?" He asked in a jealous tone.

" My classmate. I think I will date him instead of you." I said.

" Try me, Babe. Try me." He said looking at me.

" I feel like a third wheel here. I am going to pick up Natasha. Meet us in Greene's restaurant. Let's have lunch together. We will be waiting." Christian said as he walked out of my cabin.

" Get out." I said to Leo.

" What babe? I didn't heard that." He said smirkingly.

" You are annoying." I said.

" Nah, babe, nah. I am handsome, dashing, hot and list goes on." He said. I rolled my eyes.

" Don't roll your eyes they will stuck in a awkward position." He said.

" What?!" I asked.

" That's what Christian told me this morning." He said and laughed.

" Stupid got his stupid friend." I mumbled.

" I heard that, Babe." He said.

" Well it's truth." I said.

" Nah, Babe. I am not at all stupid." He said.

" You're." I said and stood up to get the file from the cabinet. Damn it!!! Why did I wore slippers today?!!

" Need any help, babe?" I heard Leo behind me.

" No, thanks." I said trying to reach the file. Suddenly he got the file and I turned to take it.

" Here." He extended the file towards me. I was about to take it but he pulled it away.

" It's not free." He said.

" Now what do you want?" I crossed my arms over my chest.

" You know that." He said smirkingly.

" I don't know, stupid." I said.

" Are you really clueless?" He asked looking at me smirkingly.

" This is my office." I said at once getting what he was about to say.

" So what?! You are my girlfriend." He said shrugging.

" You claimed that forcefully. I didn't agree." I said.

" Same, Babe. Same." He said.

" No. Not same. You didn't ask me. At least." I said. " George at least asked me. But you didn't. I should dat-" I was saying but he pressed his lips on mine and stopped me from uttering anything more.

I tried to freed myself but soon I gave up. I mean I love the feelings he was creating in me. I hope this relationship works. I really will work hard about it and make it work. I will make myself believe in love and may be one day I can say I love you back to Leo. He deserves that. He really really does. I am hoping to make him happy one day.
