Tory's POV
" I swear okay? I won't bother you" he said desperately and I couldn't resist the urge to laugh.
" Okay," I said and I went outside with him following me as I entered our car.
" Mr. Joe, this is Nate, he'll be staying with us for a while," I said after entering the car along with Nate.
" Alright," he said simply with a smile.
" How are you feeling?" I asked Nate and he exhaled deeply before clenching his teeth and saying " horrible".
" I'm really sorry Nate."
He just scratched the back of his head and shrugged.
"I'm just worried about Tiffany. They better rescue her - those policemen"
" I'm sure they will," I said trying to shift from him subtly, that didn't go unnoticed by Nate. He cocked a brow and was about to lean closer when my mom entered the car and told Mr. Joe to drive us
Tory's POV" I don't mean sex Rya," he said, a smirk still on his lips...I felt my nipples harden as he bit his lips and walked closer to me." Unless you'd like us to-"" - don't even think about it" I hissed and he chuckled." Okay, but seriously though. I need you to sleep here, maybe it'll help stop the nightmare"" I'm not the solution to your problems Nate"" You are," he said as he went to his bed and lay down, opening the sheets for me to join him.As I reluctantly joined him, I kept questioning myself " have I fallen into the category of girls that would do anything for Nate?" Why did I just lay on his bed? What was I thinking?I prayed silently that something crazy doesn't happen. Then it did." Good night Rya," he said as he moved closer to me and wrapped his arms around my
Nate's POVHer words stung so bad, why did she have to love that bastard that's cheating on her anyway?I considered telling her the truth about Rex but I also knew that she'd be angry, she does love Rex, and, from how she just said it, I don't stand a chance." Okay," I said and she got up and headed for her room." Also, please don't kiss me or touch me seductively or I just might not help you with your therapy," she said, I could tell that she was being playful but I couldn't play along. I just got up and entered my bathroom for a shower. When I heard her shut my door, I punched the wall and sustained a minor injury."Why can't I have the girl " I muttered in frustration as I took my bath.*********It's been three days since Tiffany's kidnap, the police haven't found her yet. I had been getting really worried since Tory- m
Tory's POV" This is insane," Nate said in disbelief." Are you certain?" My mom asked and detective Mason nodded." So what do they want? Nate?"" Obviously. But we're going to offer Nate to them as bait before we hijack wherever their secret base is" Bill said and I shot him a glare." We're not going to do anything of that sort Mr!"" It's either that or they come here and kill everyone else and take Nate anyway. Big D isn't someone you want to mess with Mrs. Williams" detective Mason said." This is a lot, isn't there another way?"" No, this is the only way we can get rid of this man once and for all"" I'll do it," Nate said and I glared at him." No, you shouldn't-" I started to say and he cut me off." - Tory we're talking about my mom here! I need
Nate's POVTory and her sisters were asleep while detective Mason and his colleagues prepared me to be given to Big D's men.They had been extra careful to make sure no one would know that I had been living with the Williams and I was thankful for that, the last thing I needed was for any of them to get hurt because of me. They made me feel like family and I loved that." You're okay kid?" One of the policemen sitting in the car with me at the center asked and I nodded.Thanks to my disorder, I didn't feel tense, but I do admit that I've been feeling more emotions lately, especially with Tiffany in danger, whether or not she loves me after this I don't care. I have to do what I can.With Tory, it's like nothing else matters. I nearly forget about my worries whenever I'm with her, too bad she doesn't love me. The two women I care about the most don't love me but I love them
Nate's POVI moped at Rex as he stood there in his casual wear for our school on Wednesdays. He had some blood on his hands and when he saw me look at them he rolled his eyes and cleaned them with a handkerchief he brought out of his pocket and then he threw it on the floor." Dad, I've taken out the men from the drug cartel who didn't cooperate." He said as he adjusted the school bag he was putting on.So he's an assassin? Then why the hell was he at school with me? How didn't he figure out that I was Big D's son from the start?" Great job as always" Big D said with a grin as he got up from his chair and embraced Rex." Wait, wait, wait. If you've been schooling with me for two years now, why didn't you sell me out since then? Also, how the hell are you older than me?"Rex chuckled and looked at Big D who answered in his stead." Your mothe
Tory's POVWhen I woke up this morning, I was horrified when I didn't find Nate anywhere around the house, Trudy kept sulking and it was clear that she was starting to like Nate as she likes me!After searching the whole house, I asked Mom where Nate was and she said Nate had already gone through with the detective's plan. I couldn't help but feel....cheated." What if I'll never get a chance to say goodbye to him if their plan fails?" I kept asking myself.The fact that Nate and I have started to get to know each other better is something that I'm not willing to let go of so easily. I don't want him to lose out on ever being happy and that's exactly what will happen if the police fail.I was dying of anxiety the entire time in school as I wondered if Nate was okay. I couldn't take my mind off the whole matter with Big D, I was so scared because Nate was willing to risk his future to go be with Big D if it mean
Nate's POVThe feeling in my heart as Tory held onto me so tight, was inexplicable. Detective Mason and Tory's mom were both grinning along with Tory's sisters." Tory don't suffocate him though," detective Mason said and she, unfortunately, released me and looked into my eyes. I tried to decipher what she was trying to hide as she got down from my already tired grip and I got the freaking answer when I saw her cheeks were red.She was blushing! Doesn't this mean she likes me?" Sorry," she said as she tucked her hair behind her ears and bit her lips.Damn it, why wouldn't she just be mine already?! Right - Rex. Good thing, he's probably somewhere running from the police with his psychopath of a Dad. Now, she's all mine." It's okay, I missed you too," I said and she blushed again." I didn't miss you, I worried about you!" She lied and
Tory's POVThis morning when I put on the black with a touch of silver strapless gown Nate had been nagging for me to put on, I did it because I knew he would be leaving today." Your parting gift" I had said with a smirk and his handsome face lit up as he smiled one of those smiles that made me forget that I had a boyfriend and just wanted to kiss him.It sent shivers around my body that morning that I found a way to avoid him. Just like I am now in school. My body tensed as I felt broad arms around my waist, it felt like Rex but somehow a part of me wished it was Nate. Rex said he was ill so it's not him.I turned around to see the very person I thought was ill, staring down at me with those blue eyes that always took my breath away, his hair was now in a very flawlessly executed undercut and he smelled a little different today.I embraced him and he rewarded me with a kiss.
