We made lots of plans. Lots of lots of lots plans. But we weren't able to do all of them, so we started doing the very first plan we discussed together for the New Year's Eve.
867Please respect copyright.PENANA1fZEnDprYo
Watching a movie.
867Please respect copyright.PENANAOUVcsvZUBr
Dave wanted to book a hotel in Louisville, because he liked to stay with his friend. But I didn't allow that. I asked him to stay with us until vacation is over.
867Please respect copyright.PENANAAhyIFvw2iv
Dave was not happy with it, but Nathan was.
867Please respect copyright.PENANAmzxY7PjHGd
So here we are: watching Letters to Juliet together.
867Please respect copyright.PENANAMq9CmWa1N6
Lights were dimmed. Popcorn was ready. And Letters to Juliet was playing.
867Please respect copyright.PENANAuv9gXh7YCe
Nathan was already bored out of his mind, he was yawning, and staring at the television with narrowed eyes.
867Please respect copyright.PENANAxa1irFGPUt
I had to stare at him for exactly twenty seconds, in order to be able to notice that he wasn't blinking.
867Please respect copyright.PENANAtAANMCmYRI
He wasn't talking.
867Please respect copyright.PENANAbFMrM2w7eW
And he definitely wasn't watching the movie with us.
867Please respect copyright.PENANAgdP0JdEYe0
He was not even having any popcorns.
867Please respect copyright.PENANA84smO8qaQg
He looked worried, nervous and very tired.
867Please respect copyright.PENANAcr8LosLyTq
"Jessie?" A voice called my name. I turned around abruptly to find Rachel staring at me with her eyes narrowed. Then her eyes landed on her brother, then back at me, then back at her brother.
867Please respect copyright.PENANArAjNt5vHB0
I felt heat rush into my cheeks, ears, and neck.
867Please respect copyright.PENANAblkhqQMuJ4
Oh god! This is very humiliating, Rachel caught me staring at her brother like a maniac.
867Please respect copyright.PENANARYd2Gksgdw
What could she think of now? Maybe she'll think I have something for Nathan?
867Please respect copyright.PENANAwPowmJbHSL
"Hmmm?" I said, swallowing hard. And putting a fistful of popcorn into my mouth.
867Please respect copyright.PENANAX4gmvclwba
Rachel suddenly smiled, as if she hasn't just caught me staring at her brother. As if she doesn't actually care about it.
867Please respect copyright.PENANAU8PRuTAv1H
"Should we change the movie? I think the guys are bored" Rachel said, as she made a face. And put the already empty bowel of popcorn near her face, to eat the remaining small ones.
867Please respect copyright.PENANAwxl2snYSRM
"Yeah." I said, " what should we watch?"
867Please respect copyright.PENANAKyI0HkOpVA
"Hmmm... How about Taken?" Rachel offered.
867Please respect copyright.PENANAchtuXn42Ks
"Yesssssss!!!!" Dave said as he threw his fist in the air.
867Please respect copyright.PENANAGOGZNNFw2g
O-kay.
867Please respect copyright.PENANAH7vwte8Z7l
"Alright then, Taken it is." I said, nodding my head.
867Please respect copyright.PENANA8TbVUatBbX
I quickly changed the CD in the CD player into Taken.
867Please respect copyright.PENANAGTukeTdXLx
The movie played, but Nathan's reaction and expressions were the same.
867Please respect copyright.PENANAU5QB4Sjvf9
He was still not blinking.
867Please respect copyright.PENANAP4zPfsRUSG
He was still not talking, and was silent as a rock.
867Please respect copyright.PENANAne3FHEyHL9
And he still looked in deep thoughts.
867Please respect copyright.PENANATFa1HsR1n5
I shrugged and looked away. Maybe he has girl problems. It's not my business. His closest friend is with him after all.
867Please respect copyright.PENANAV4Ci7y0UJF
Dave was making funny noises while watching the movie. Which made Rachel roll her eyes, glare at him or even tell him to shut up (sometimes).
867Please respect copyright.PENANAS8AdXnr3Ac
I giggled at them. And continued watching the movie.
867Please respect copyright.PENANA2LaeZczMry
It was when Bryan Mills (Liam Neeson) was looking for her daughter in Paris, when I felt someone's eyes on me.
867Please respect copyright.PENANAPbFhUm8LXK
Not for ten seconds.
867Please respect copyright.PENANAkyKujnges0
Or twenty seconds, like me.
867Please respect copyright.PENANAHcXt4j5M0t
Or even a minute.
867Please respect copyright.PENANAgoi7UAd05I
But Nathan was staring at me for more than a three minutes.
867Please respect copyright.PENANA7KJJ1Orcvk
There was definitely something wrong with him today.
867Please respect copyright.PENANAnQ2VWg16GY
I shifted uncomfortably in my seat, and tried to focus on the movie. But Nathan's eyes were still on me.
867Please respect copyright.PENANApqOTRsq6Mq
I slowly turned around to stare at him, because I thought maybe he's just daydreaming and isn't realizing that his eyes has landed on me. But he looked away.
867Please respect copyright.PENANAbBqO2vyWvC
I frowned and felt every hair on my body stand out.
867Please respect copyright.PENANAWYTfahgwjA
Why the hell is he this creepy today? He's acting very weird since I met Harry. But... didn't Harry say they were old friends? I don't remember Nathan greeting him or talking to him.
867Please respect copyright.PENANAtCw0WTeI1p
I reached out my hand to my bowl of popcorn but it was empty. I sighed and managed to walk to the kitchen. And fill my bowl with more popcorn.
867Please respect copyright.PENANAIsVu2Rme0w
I was humming the lyrics of Thunder by Imagine Dragons all the way to the kitchen.
867Please respect copyright.PENANAWk1xho184U
When my bowl was full enough, I turned around and dropped the bowl in my hands as I let out a gasp. "Arghhh"
867Please respect copyright.PENANAW4LYnM6WCx
Nathan chuckled and stared at the mess I've done.
867Please respect copyright.PENANAaIzKcZR1vo
The bowl was broken into thankfully large pieces, I bent down on my knees and started to collect the pieces.
867Please respect copyright.PENANAurHxXBXj1q
Nathan did the same, we both finished collecting the broken pieces, and threw them in the trash can.
867Please respect copyright.PENANAAWBY5KHdAF
"You're not hurt, are you?" He asked.
867Please respect copyright.PENANAQ7Ms5LykPf
I frowned in confusion, I'm not hurt, I guess... I just got scared.
867Please respect copyright.PENANAJv6zsbSGVY
"Yeah, I know you're...jumpy" Nathan said chuckling once more, then he stared at my hands and pointed at them, "I was talking about your hands"
867Please respect copyright.PENANA5eOQJsSs71
"Oh..." I muttered, feeling stupid. "I'm fine"
867Please respect copyright.PENANAwyIYZXhPh3
"Good to know" He said and smiled politely at me. Then his smile dropped gradually, until his lips were pressed into a thin line. He sighed deeply and stared into my eyes.
867Please respect copyright.PENANApH9jTgoc5h
"I... want to tell you something" Nathan said, his voice shaky, his eyes dropping a little. It was then when I noticed the dark circles under his eyes, his eyes blood shot red, and his skin pale like a snowball.
867Please respect copyright.PENANA6mz0TcNBEY
"Sure" I say, and smile. Whatever it is he wants to tell me, I really hope I can help him with it.
867Please respect copyright.PENANA2RdVSZK4ej
The poor guy looks very sad.
867Please respect copyright.PENANARPxrmsv3ZK
Nathan breathes in, and runs his hands through his hair. He opens his mouth and closes it several times. Like a fish breathing in water.
867Please respect copyright.PENANAEXvINJLNme
He finally opened his mouth and uttered only three words, which changed my life entirely.
867Please respect copyright.PENANABpdSL37jRf
"Be my girlfriend"
