He eased his car at the front of the Nate's apartment building, after a long night of arguing with Nate all the way here.Drunk Nate was a fucking inquisitive Nate, and he was very stubborn.Spade had initially wanted to drive Nate to his own house, so he could keep an eye on him there but Nate refused, he kept blabbering about how he would feel more comfortable in his house, and how he didn't want Spade to maul him in his sleep, when Nate was drunk, he was fucking blunt.He looked at him, finally sighing out in relief that the young man had slept off, but to his surprise for the millionth time that night, Nate was wide awake.Spade let out a deep sigh before he unbuckled his own seatbelt, he opened the car door and stepped out, walking around to Nate's side of the car, he opened the door and ducked inside, undoing Nate's seatbelt, he pulled Nate out of the car gently, all the while trying to stop his nose from inhaling Nate's scent, because that would mess with his head and mind.He
Nate groaned out as he shifted himself on the bed, feeling the softness of the mattress against his back, he slowly turned his head, feeling the throbbing in his temple.He rubbed his eyes, everything felt hazy and achy, well mostly his head.He managed to peel his eyes open, thank God the room wasn't bright.He gently got up, adjusting his eye sight to the room, his eyes landed on the covers, and his bare body.Tiny bits and pieces from the previous night had started to surface in his mind, the more he tried to remember what happened, the more intense the ache in his head got.He gripped the sides of his head tight, shutting his eyes and grimacing.He remembered going out with Spade to the fancy restaurant for dinner, he even remembered some of the things that happened, like how he watched the night sky and the city from the huge glass window, he remembered drinking wine and Spade telling him to slow down, everything was just rushing in at once, interlaping with each other, making hi
Sitting down on his chair looking at Matteo, he drowned out everything the blonde was saying, letting his mind to travel far.His body was currently on the chair in front of Matteo but his mind had already gone on a long journey towards Nate.It had been six days since Nate had started avoiding him, giving him space while acting as if they never kissed.The longer Nate stayed away from him the harder it became for him to get used to.He didn't understand why Nate had liked about the kiss though.Did he perhaps regret it, or maybe he wasn't even in the slightest attracted to Spade, making Spade to doubt himself.So he was the one losing his mind, driving himself crazy over Nate, when in truth the young man didn't even feel anything for him It had been a one sided thing.He realized he was thinking of Nate too much, something he'd never done in the past, think about someone as much as this, especially when it came to emotions.Infact he'd never been stood up before, but Nate stood him
Stepping into the penthouse, Matteo turned on the lights, slowly peeling off the jacket he was wearing over the checkered shirt inside, he dropped it on the couch.He turned his neck round trying to ease it of the pain he was feeling, he'd been working non stop the whole week, infact since the Liam incident, he hasn't had a second to rest, he barely got six hours of sleep on a day.He was about to get himself a glass of water when he heard the doorbell go off, making him look at the door, scrunching his brows up, he wasn't expecting anyone.He heard it again, and almost groaned out, can't he just get at least 5 minutes of rest time from all the work.He walked stealthily towards the door, his hand grazing the pistol safely tucked away in the back of his pants, it could be anyone, he wouldn't be caught off guard.He looked through the small tiny hole at the middle of the door, hoping to see whoever was there but he didn't see anyone, making him all the more alert as he slowly turned th
The three of them sat facing each other, Spade didn't like this one bit but they didn't have much of a choice, he didn't trust Stefano, but like Matteo said, this was a once in a lifetime opportunity for them, they might never get another chance to uncover anything about their mystery man."So who took the weapon shipments"? Spade grunted out as Stefano just turned to look at him, almost rolling his eyes at Spade."Easy there Spade, there are processes before the main information is divulged to you" he said making Spade to clench his jaw hard."A month ago you sent Matteo to tail me, after I gave your boyfriend a package to give to his daddy" Stefano said pointing at Spade as he mentioned the word boyfriend, this made Spade to blink, Nate's name being mentioned made him clench his jaw, but he didn't say anything"Fortunately for you, when I found him" he said pointing to Matteo "I didn't kill him, like I should, instead I told him a little bit of what he came looking for"This made Sp
"He woke up the morning after and he denied remembering everything that happened, including the kiss" Spade muttered out, feeling how sad and dejected his own voice came out"Okay, but what if he actually doesn't remember"? Matteo asked and Spade shook his head"That's impossible, he does remember, because after that day, he started avoiding me, spending all his time at the club with Bernie" he muttered the last part out with anger, as if it was Bernie's fault that Nate was avoiding him"Okay" Matteo muttered, he could see how much talking about this was affecting Spade, which meant the actual incident did more than affect him, he'd never seem him like this"Have you tried talking to him about it? Maybe telling him how you feel about it? Maybe he avoided you because he thought you regretted it? Spade shook his head"You don't get it, I did try to talk to him, countless times, but he kept pushing me away, doing everything possible to ensure I wasn't close to him" Spade muttered "so th
"Something did happen that's made me not come around the club" he muttered, almost inaudibly, but Matteo heard him, he already had his eyes on Nate."Did someone hurt you? or threaten you"? He asked and Nate just shook his head, biting on his bottom lip, he didn't think it would be a good idea to give Matteo all the details of what happened, but he'd explain to the best of his ability, leaving out a few things, for personal reasons."No, no one's threatened or hurt me" he sighed out again "something happened between Spade and I"He saw as Matteo's brows furrowed together"Gio"? He asked and Nate nodded, wondering if there was another Spade he didn't know about, of course it was Giovanni."Did he do something to hurt you"? Matteo pressed, Nate just sighed out again and shook his head"No, what happened wasn't really much of a thing, actually it wasn't really much of anything" he whispered, more to himself than to the blonde sitting beside him."I didn't think Spade wanted it to be anyt
After hours and hours of working non stop, the day for the launching of the hotel project finally came, Nate's sleepless nights had finally paid off.Although he didn't expect he would be asked to make a speech, but Spade once again shocked him and asked him to make a speech, he wasn't really prepared but he gave one regardless.Now everyone in the huge hotel lobby and the restaurant area were all mingling and networking while some were looking through the hotel rooms, the swimming pool and even the children's section Nate added.He didn't think anyone would fancy that or think of it as a brilliant idea, but he noticed that most of the women that came for the opening seemed to be very impressed with it.He noticed that Spade had somehow stayed away from him, something he didn't expect, coming for the opening of the hotel, he thought Spade would be all over him after what happened at the club, infact he was kind of counting on it because he wanted to talk to Spade, even though he didn'
