"And sometimes you just realize it too late...."Natalie was 18. She and her best friend were really close like sisters. Everything was well till the day a boy came into their life.He came into their life with a smile on his face, eyes holding respect for them but who knew he was a demon who would eat their souls away. Destroy everything they didn't even think about. A devil named Finn.Gail was a soft-hearted girl. It didn't take her much time to fall in love with him, he was flirty and never dropped a chance to make a move on her. Natalie however was not so soft-hearted. She never trusted him blindly. She always was cautious about him. But Gail was already so deep in love with him that she forgot everything else that existed. Her parents didn't like Finn so she moved in with him, without even a second glance. How Natalie wished she should have seen that Gail was losing herself in loving him. Nothing else mattered to her, it was just Finn. She loved him enough to let go of her mora
Weeks passed Natalie didn't contact her, and neither did Gail. She wanted to hurt Finn so much, but she couldn’t. She just hoped a kid in his life would change him. Isn't that what people say?She didn't fire him, she didn't give him any bigger job either. She didn't see him either. In fact, he was working under someone else now. Finn thought Natalie would let him give anything he wanted to protect her friendship with Gail but he was wrong. She really did leave this time. He panicked if she didn't care then what was the point of tolerating Gail and her dreams of them living as a family? So he changed his game, he made Gail talk to her again, emotionally blackmailing her that he didn't like this fight between them. So after a few months, she called her. And Natalie picked it up, she hoped she had changed her mind. But her hope shattered when she realized she didn't call her because she wanted to be friends with her again because she believed her but rather because Finn made her. Thi
“Love.... some indescribable but so desirable....”Natalie told Adrian the whole story to Adrian how Finn destroyed Gail's life. How he changed her which was why she was afraid to love him, when she felt an urge to be close to him she was scared. She was worried it would happen again, she would make a mistake again..she would change like Gail did. People see love with beauty and awe in their eyes but for her it was pain, she looked at it with hate in her heart. In her head love was just a word for obsession and selfishness, but when Adrian challenged her otherwise and she found herself getting into this trap of love, her first instinct was to run away from it. She longed to be away from it. It was not just her past, he was her enemy but it's indeed true you don't choose to fall in love or the person. The moment she felt him taking care of her, she didn't even realize she stopped minding it. When that impulse of extreme hate turned into this wanting to be with him, see him, love him
“Run love, I’m the truth you’re afraid of...” Natalie was quiet. How could she tell someone something which she still didn't want to accept? The memories resurfaced and it felt like they didn't happen years ago but just yesterday like they were still fresh. Adrian was still staring at her waiting for her to speak. But it was like she couldn't get the words out... "Talk to me." He rubbed his hand up and down her back. She looked in his eye afraid she would judge her but they just held concern for her. Like he wanted to take away the pain. She closed her eyes and took a breath. “Just try to let out once” Just try... She opened her eyes and that stoic look came back again as if it was a mask to fool herself that she was okay, that she was strong enough to say it. "One day I went to his house to take Gail's stuff, then his mother came." Natalie was staring out of the window, lost. Her tone was blank like she was too numb to feel what she was saying. But deep down it killed her so
"Some chapters just don't end so soon." Isaac opened the door and Natalie stepped. Isaac saw her eyes looked a little swollen and he was on high alert mode. "What—" "Where's Thomas?" "He has slept already" Natalie nodded. "And dad?" Isaac was just about to open his mouth when someone else spoke in a cold tone making them turn around to the source. "I'm right here." And just as Natalie predicted with one look at her face and he stormed towards her, worry clear in his eyes. He stood in front of her and looked out for any injuries. Then his eyes went to her bandaged hand. He held it up, and Isaac also came forward to examine it wondering how he missed it earlier. "What happened?" He asked in a serious tone, ready to go out to kill someone. "I accidentally hurt my hand on my phone." Dimitri looked like he wasn't gonna believe her so she took out her new phone. When she was sleeping Adrian had already replaced her phone. "I had to get a new one" Her eyes were a bit swollen bu
“A person you love is not supposed to be the missing piece of you rather he will help you find it to complete you.”Natalie came back to her room and found Dimitri standing by the window thinking over something deeply while Isaac was sitting on a chair tapping his foot on the ground impatiently. Seeing Natalie at the door he got up. He had a list of things to say to her."I hope you know that I don't like it when you hide things, especially which hurt you. I forgive you for this one but just make sure you tell me next time. Take that as a pact between us.”Natalie nodded with a gentle smile on her face. “Sorry.”He patted her head gently in response making her chuckle.Dimitri turned to look at them too. Their bond was even stronger than blood-related brother and sister. He smiled knowing they both had each other’s great support without realizing it.“Natalie” hearing Dimitri call her out they turned to him. With a warm tone, he continued, “I know you are worried about Thomas. But I've
“How can your love do something that no one else can....”Natalie walked out of her room, all ready to go to college. Dimitri was at the dining table, drinking tea as he read the news and Isaac was stuffing his mouth with food. Dimitri once in a while threw him a judgment look at how he ate but Isaac didn’t have any care for the world. Natalie smiled knowing this was actually the way they showed their love to each other. They would never say it, but Isaac only tested his limits because he knew he could. After all, Dimitri won't say anything to him. He indirectly felt the love he had for him and the same with Dimitri, Isaac didn't even bother to even talk to anyone except for him and Natalie. His trust in them alone told him he loved them to death. Natalie went near Thomas who was eyeing the two adults with a narrowed gaze. Why are they like this?“Don’t even think about it,” Natalie whispered to him as she sat down next to him. Thomas smiled at her and kissing her cheek mumbled, “goo
“It's the beat that my heart skips when I’m with you..”A few days passed by, and Adrian and Natalie’s relationship was running smoothly. He even once climbed into her room through the window just to see her since with Isaac here they couldn’t spend much time together apart from in college.Speaking of college Isabelle didn’t even dare show her face to Natalie or Adrian anymore. She kept her distance, despite not wanting to admit it she was smart enough to realize both Natalie and Adrian were just some students you could mess with. They held some power in their eyes alone, that could break their enemy with their stare alone.Tyler too respectfully kept his distance, he still didn't like seeing Adrian’s face though. He would only show up sometimes when Amanda was with Natalie who had no idea of the situation. Natalie did tell Amanda about Adrian to which she replied, ‘you both do look scary when you’re angry’ making Natalie chuckle heartily.Greyson just disappeared a few weeks ago. He
