Love Me

Love Me chapter3

~~~Chapter3~~~

Some months later… 

“I've had enough, I'm standing up, I need, I need a change, I've had enough, of chasing luck, I need, I need a change” I sang with Christina Perri as I was heading for the very first time to my new apartment.

I was so excited to see my new house in person. I had only seen it from pictures and I had to say that it was pretty good, with 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, a small kitchen and a medium living room.

I was also very excited to meet, face to face, my roommate, Morgana, who is so friendly, funny and caring. For the last month we’ve been exchanging some messages and I have to tell that I already like her.

I talked with her an hour ago, to tell her the time that I would arrive so she would be home, because I didn’t have keys to open the door.

After a 3 hours journey I parked my black Nissan Rogue outside the building were Morgana’s and my apartment was.

The building was brownstoner. I liked it, because it looked vintage and I loved vintage! By the time I stepped inside, it was around 9. I opened the elevator door and waited as I leaned against the elevator’s wall.

When I arrived at the 2nd floor there were two wooden doors. One on the right and one on the left. Following Morgana’s instructions I turned to the right and as I was about to knock the door, my phone buzzed from my bag. I let my suitcase in front the door and took my phone out as I knocked the door.

Mason- I love everything about you except the fact that you are not with me… Miss you baby :’(

I smiled at myself and “put” my phone in my back pocket, but I forgot that I wore leggings so my phone fell on the floor.

“Shit!” I said as I turned around, bend down and catch it. When I turned back at the door, I was faced with a familiar guy that was looking, shamelessly, my bum. When he understood that he was busted his cheeks reddened and I started feeling nervous as I wasn’t good at interacting with the opposite gender.

Morgana’s apartment must be on the left! I mentally face palmed myself.

“Sorry wrong apartment…” I said quickly and turned around but before I could go anywhere the guy grabbed my forearm gently.

“No Jade… this is the right one” he said with a small smile.

“Oh… ok…” I said as I walked inside a bit unsure.

The house looked bigger than it looked in the pictures and it was decorated with colorful furniture. The walls had earthy tones and there were some nice black and white paintings on them. As in all, the house was vintage and cosy!

A girl with dark bleu hair, which I hope is Morgana, greeted me.

“Hey Jade! Nice to finally see you! I hope it was easy for you to find the house.” She said with a genuine smile across her face, as she hugged me.

I had to be sociable and friendly if I wanted a friend, so I put a smile on my face and tried my best to hide how tired I was.

“Don’t worry Morgana! The house is so pretty and cosy! I love it!” I answered as I looked around the house.

“Wait until you see the rest of it! My brother will show it to you, because I have to return to my house…I am sorry that I am leaving so soon but my boyfriend is waiting for me…” she answered nervously as she scratched the back of her neck.

When I turned and looked at the guy, who I guess is her brother, he was sitting at the arm of the cream sectional sofa with a devilish smirk on his face.

What was going on…?

“What do you mean “you to return to your house”?” I asked, looking at her, a little shocked knowing that what was coming next wasn’t good.

“Well… you see… Two weeks ago, my boyfriend asked me to move with him, at his house… So now your new roommate is my little brother” she said a little too fast, scared of what my reaction will be.

My jaw dropped a little too shocked from the news and look at her brother. I wanted this smirk of his to disappear this instant. He looked around my age, with dark brown  short hair, hazel eyes and a sharp jaw. He was wearing a black v neck shirt that defined his muscles and dark ripped jeans that hanged low on his hips.

I had to admit that he was hot and that made me even more self-conscious. He was familiar and I was sure I had seen him somewhere before, but I couldn’t tell where… I turned my gaze back to Morgana before he could think that I was checking him out.

“Ok, so… Bye! I will call you tomorrow Jade! Good night and be nice to her!”” she said as she rushed through the door and slammed it before I had a chance to respond.

Awkward silence filled the room.

Be sociable Jade! Don’t stand there like a freak! I cleared my throat.

“So… I guess you are my roommate… well… What’s your name?” I asked trying not to sound nervous.

Suddenly his smirk disappeared. Then he snorted and looked at me with a blank expression.

“You don’t  remember, do you?” he asked looking me deadly in the eyes. I could understand that he was slightly annoyed from the tone of his voice. What was wrong with him? I tried to think where I have seen him before, but I couldn’t.

“Sorry, but no I don’t.” I replied with a slight frown in my face, trying hard to remember.

“Lets just say that you have stopped looking at your feet while you walk” He replayed, for a weird reason, frustrated and… disappointed? Ok, now I am confused! Then he left the living room and slammed the door behind him without an other word.

I was speechless…

And then it hit me.

He was Nathan.

The Nathan I met when I entered Dr Seuss waiting room.

What the hell just happened?
