Bad Boy's Girl

Chapter Four

When we were driving back to the house I had fallen asleep. I felt myself being lifted and I opened my eyes to look at Nate. I shut my eyes again and heard Tyler's voice. "If I see Zach on Wednesday, I'm going to be the shit out of him. He was literally seconds away from raping her. If you hadn't walked into that room..."

"I fucking hate that dick." Nate said, "Him just looking at her makes me want to kill him. Everyone knows she's mine." Wait hold up, what did he just say?! 'Everyone knows she's mine.' I mean I never got the memo, but okay.

"She doesn't know that she's yours." Tyler said making me mentally laugh. Thank god for him, pointing out the obvious. "Plus I think her and that Tommy kid are dating."

"He isn't much competition." Nate said well laughing, "but she introduced me to him. She said this is my friend. So I doubt they have a thing." Well Tommy and I don't have a thing, Nate was right we were only friends, nothing more. "I'm gonna go put her in her bed." I could feel him walking up the stairs.

A couple seconds later I was placed in my bed. He gently kissed my forehead, sending butterflies to my stomach. "Goodnight cupcake." He whisperers, "I'm sorry that I lost you tonight." My blankets were pulled over my cold body, then my light turned off and the door was shut.

I woke up and with a pounding headache. I sat up and I ran a hand through my hair. I got out of my bed and looked at myself in the mirror. My mascara was smudged and just looked horrible, probably from all the crying I did last night. I grabbed my makeup wipes and wiped all my makeup off. I threw my hair into a messy bun and changed into leggings and a hoodie that I stole from Tommy.

I walked downstairs and walked into the kitchen to get some Advil. Luckily, the boys weren't down here yet. I grabbed the Advil out of the cabinet and then grabbed a bottle of water. I took two Advil's and then felt arms wrap around my waist. "Good morning cupcake." Nate whispered into my ear.

"Good morning." I said as I turned around. I looked at a shirtless Nate, his hair was messy and he was smiling at me.

"I'm sorry about last night. I shouldn't have yelled at you. I was just so mad at Zach and I took it out on you." He said as he ran a hand through his hair. "I wish I never lost you."

"It's okay Nate." I said as he grabbed my hand in his. He pulled me closer to him and wrapped me in a hug. "I don't want to go to school tomorrow. I really don't want to see Zach." I bit my bottom lip as I tilted my head up to look at him. Tears were starting to fill my eyes, before I snuggled my face back into Nate's chest.

"I promise you're gonna be okay." Nate said, "I'm not gonna let him near you." I smiled and Nate let go of me. "I swear cupcake." I nodded and walked over to the cabinets to grab a pan to make pancakes. I turned the stove on and started to make the batter.

Nate and I were sitting on the floor in the living room working on the project. I was drawing the organs and Nate was doing the labeling. "Can we take a break? This is so fucking boring." He said as he stood up and started to stretch. "Plus it's due in two weeks!"

"Fine." I said while giggling. I stood up just as a knock came on the front door. "I'm gonna go get that." I walked over to the door and opened it. I saw Tommy and smiled, "Hey Tomm--." He pressed his lips against mine, taking me by surprise. His hands went to my waist while he pulled me closer to his body.

I melted into the kiss and I wrapped my arms around his neck. We both pulled away and caught our breath. "Natalie I'm in love with you." He said as he ran a hand through his hair. "I've liked you since the first day we met in freshman year."

"Tommy..." I started not knowing what to say. "I don't know what to say. I like you too." I smiled up at him and watched as the biggest smile spread across his face. He leaned down and kissed me again. Someone cleared their throat making him pull away from me.

I turned around and looked at Nate and Tyler. "Just friends?" Nate asked while smirking. "Looks a little more complicated then that." My cheeks flushed red and I looked at the ground. "Cupcake you're growing up."

"Cupcake?" Tommy asked from behind me.

"He been calling me that since we were kids." I said as I turned around to face Tommy. "Because he knows I hate it."

"You know you love it." Nate said as he walked over to me and wrapped his arm around my shoulder, "Just as much as you love me." Tommy looked down at me and raised an eyebrow. "So you should back off her. She told me last night that she loved me."

"No I didn't!" I said as I pushed Nate's arm off of me. "I would never like you." He smirked as he ran a hand through his hair. "Not after everything you've done to me."

"Natalie I could give a shit if you liked me or not." Nate said as he walked away with Tyler.

"I'm sorry about him." I said to Tommy, "He's just such a dick." Tommy nodded and lightly pecked my lips.

"I have to go pick of my sister." He said smiling, "I'll see you at school tomorrow." I nodded my head and hugged him before he walked out of the house. As soon as I shut the door Tyler walked over to me.

"What the fuck was that?" Tyler asked, "I thought you two were just friends."

"We are." I said while making a 'duh' face. "I just couldn't tell him that I didn't feel the same way." I bit down on my lip, "I couldn't hurt him. But me lying that I like him was wrong to do..." I sighed and rubbed my face. "What do I do?"

"Tell him that you don't fucking like him." Nate said as he walked over. "Say if his dick is smaller then 7 inches that you can't date him. He has at most 6 inches."

"What the fuck, I'm not saying that!" I said while scrunching up my nose.

"So then tell him you like me." Nate said while smirking. "Tell him we hooked up and you fell in love with me. But I didn't like you back." I shook my head no and walked away from him. I went upstairs to my room and flopped down on my bed.

After what Nate had said to Tyler last night I didn't know how to feel about him. I mean he has been a dick to me for years. But he was so sweet last night and this morning. I loved when he hugged this morning, I just felt so safe in his arms. But then that ego of his made me want to punch him in the face.
