Our First Encounter

Roses

Recap: I looked at my alarm clock and it was 10:49 p.m. I usually go to sleep at an earlier time, but I wanted to talk to Nathan. The conversation was super interesting I wanted to talk about it more, but of course I won't admit that. I'm embarrassed to have these feelings... These ideas and thoughts. I'm too young to think about doing anything like that... I still kind of want to. I want Nathan to do that with me, but... It'll have to be in the future. Even if right now feels like the right time, it's not... And it's wrong. I laid back down and drifted off to sleep, thinking of Nathan and only Nathan.

-Morning-

I awoke to my loud alarm clock beeping in my ear drum and I quickly shut it off. It's so bright in here. Before we go to the funeral all the family is going to get together and... I don't know, have a social. I got up and walked into my bathroom, the shower was running so I grabbed my toothbrush, put toothpaste on and started brushing my teeth. This is my shower, whys this kid have to be in here? I walked out of my bathroom over to my closet and pulled out some socks and underwear. I grabbed blue boxers and matching socks... I haven't really worn a suit before. Unless, of course, it was to church a long time ago, but this suit looks fitted and everything. I bent over because I saw something stuffed into one of the pockets. It was a crumbled piece of paper... So, I unwrinkled it. 283----... My phone number. Well then... Good to know he kept a spare piece of paper with my number on it. The shower stopped, so I assume Erick is finished... Erick walked out with a towel around his waste, then he walked out of the room.

"I used up all of the hot water... Sorry." He said, then he stuck out his tongue and chuckled at me. Well I mean... I shower in cold water, so that means nothing to me. I walked into the bathroom with my clothes and turned the shower back on.

-ten minutes later-

I walked out of the shower and began drying myself. The suit was laying nicely on my bed and I couldn't wait to try it on. I'm still so happy Nathan got me a suit... It means a lot. I know this wasn't cheap, so to think he spent so much for me... It's making me unbearable happy. I picked up the socks and clothes I picked out and rushed everything on. This suit... It really fits me just right, it's kind of creepy how accurate the measurements for this suit fits me. I put on my shoes and walked out of my room Derek was waiting for me there.

"Umm... Where you going dressed like that? A date with your boyfriend?" He said with a grin... Oh... I forgot that Erick doesn't know about my parents and brother. I guess it makes sense that he doesn't know I'm going to their funeral. I bent down a little and placed my hand on his shoulder.

"Yes, a very special one." I said and walked off. I mean, I'll be with Nathan there... I will be okay if he's there, I'm always okay when he's with me. I feel safe... Like nothing could go wrong. I was on my way out the door when Stace came out of no where, causing me to jump in fear.

"Oh... Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you. It's just... I hope you'll be okay, I know Nathan will take care of you." She said and gave me a light hug.

"Yes, I know he will. Thank you, Stace." I said with a smile. I saw Nathan's car pulling up and I rushed out the door towards it. Nathan walked out of the car with beautiful roses and a half smile.

"You look sexy." He said with a now wide smile on his face and he was wearing the same suit as me... A nice formal black suit and white button up. His suit was also fitted perfectly and I could see the shape of his muscles through the suit and I couldn't help but stare. I began blushing at his words and the sight of him in that suit and I looked away casually.

"You look nice too." I said blankly and he slowly walked to me. Nathan placed his warm hand on my shoulder and I looked into his light brown eyes.

"Just nice?" He said in a calm, but yet so sexy tone. I felt my heart flutter and... Oh my god, I felt my pants tightening and moved his hand off my shoulder.

"Haha... Look at the time, we have to get going." I said and rushed into the passenger seat. Nathan stood in the same spot for a couple of seconds and began pouting back over to the car. He walked over to the drivers side and got in, his face was a slight shade a pink and I leaned my head against the window.

"No... Not just 'fine' you're sexy too..." I said in a low tone. I lifted my head from the window to look over at him and he was smiling wildly.

"Hmm... What was that? I didn't seem to hear you." He said and I rolled my eyes.

"I'm not repeating it." I said crossing my arms. I know he heard me, his face shows it all... I mean he has a slight blush. I looked at him as his eyes wandered across my body and stop at one point that I quickly covered in embarrassment.

"Say it one more time and I won't say anything about your situation." He said in a cocky tone. I turned back over to the window and looked out, this is so embarrassing.

"You're sexy too." I said blankly and I didn't turn from the window. He didn't respond, but I could almost feel his smile from here. Nathan started the car and we were on our way to the funeral. Isn't this weird... We're talking about how sexy we are and we're on our way to see my parents and brother get put six feet under. Nathan played low music and the ride was overall quiet, there was no chat between us... I leaned my head back against the seat and waited to get to the destination. The car stopped and I opened my eyes slowly to see who was around. We were at a cemetery and I could see a whole bunch of family-friends around... They were all tearing up and it made me begin to cry too.

"Hey, Adam, please don't cry... Come here." Nathan said and hugged me from across the seat. Being so close to him always makes me feel better and I love how he feels so close to me.

"Alright... I'm okay, we need to get out now..." I said, breaking the hug. There was a women standing with a rose in her hand wiping tears out of her eyes... I ignored it at first and took Nathan's hand towards the cemetery. We got up to all the people and they gave their condolences which actually... To be honest, made me feel worst. I looked over to see if the women from before was still standing there and to my surprise, she was. I walked away from the other people, because I noticed she looks familiar, I just can't tell who it is from this distance. I walked up to her and she turned quickly... It was Stace.

I hope you enjoyed. (:
