i woke up to the smell of food. it was unusual because my dad doesn't cook and gloria is with her family. i quietly walked into the kitchen to see the back of nate. he was leaning over the stove making something. i tried to be quiet as i stood behind him and wrapped my arms around him. he spun around, putting his hands on my face and giving me a soft kiss.
"did i wake you?" he asked.
"no of course not. what are you doing here?"
"well your is letting me have you for the day since we won't see each other a lot tomorrow."
"can we go ice skating?!" i asked nate.
"yeah but i don't want to embarrass you. i'm a prodigy." i laughed at what he said, nate slightly pushed my back into the counter. he keep his hands on my waist. i didn't want to stop him but i had to.
"nate?"
"mmh," he said as he still continued to try and kiss me.
"somethings burning," i said. he immediately stopped at look the eggs he had made off the stove. he looked back at me and smirked. the damn smile.

nate and i had just gotten to the skating. i was pretty good at it, just a little rusty. nate on the other hand was pretty much terrible. he was holding on to me for dear life. nate had attempted to skate on his own, still kinda holding on to me. he slipped and fell on his butt, taking me down with him.
"i'm sorry," nate said.
"it's okay, at least you tried," i said as i laughed at him. after this we decided to leave. we were super cold.
at the cafe nate got ordered for us and let me sit by the warm vent.
"hot chocolate with extra whip cream," he said as he handed me the cup.
"thank you ," i said as i looked at him and smiled up at him and he sat down.
"so i have something planned for us tonight. it's like a gift," nate said.
"i thought we weren't doing gifts?"
"please just come."
"fine," i said as i grabbed his hands from over the table and smiled at him.
looks like our golden girl and golden boy have a golden relationship
it wasn't too long ago that blair and nate called it quits
wonder what blair thinks?
"jokes on her, blair is fine with us," i said. we talked for a little longer before we left to continue our day.
later that night nate and i got a cab. nate had blindfolded me so i couldn't see.
"nate it's slippery i'm gonna fall," i told him.
"no you won't i've got you," he said as he had his hands on my waist. i directed my up some stairs and inside a building.
"can i look?" i said giggling.
"not yet."
"nate," i wined.
"okay," i could feel him go behind me and untie the blindfold. i looked in the room i was standing in. it was covered in snowflakes and there was a projection on the wall that had pine trees and snowfall.
"do you like it?" he asked from behind me. i looked at him in the eyes. "you hate it. i could have gotten you a jewelry or something nice. i was just thinking this would be more memor-," nate rambled. i leaned in a kissed him and he kissed back. i pulled away.
"i love it. no one has even done anything like this for me before, i just felt like i was never worth a beautiful gesture like this," i told him.
"you're worth it, every part of you." i turned around and noticed a bed in the middle of the room. i walked over to it and jumped on it.
"premarital sex? nathaniel i am very disappointed in you," i said to him jokingly.
"i could just leave," nate said as started to turn around.
"no, come here," i said to him as i held my arms up. nate came over and picked me up. i wrapped my arms and legs around him. we started to make out.
nate made his way to giving me kisses down my neck. my were entangled in his hair. i remembered something.
"i'm so sorry. i have to stop you, i forgot something," i jumped down from his. he sighed and sat down on the bed, laying back. i made my way over to my bag and pulled out his gift. i walked back over to the bed and jumped on nate straddled him. he sat up and i gave him the gift.
"isn't this my sweater?" he asked and laughed.
"yes, but do you notice anything different?" he searched around on the sweatshirt until he found something.
"a heart?" he asked.
"so you will forever wear my heart on your sleeve." he just smiled at me and i pulled out his other gift. it was a piece of paper, i handed it to him. i let him look over it.
"its from kindergarten. it was the day that you and blair started dating. i wrote it before school, i wanted to asked you to be my boyfriend but she beat me to it."
"you've liked me for that long?" i nodded. he set the paper and sweater aside and sat up slightly. "that day i was going to ask you out. i got nervous when blair asked me. i've always had feelings for you."
