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.
675Please respect copyright.PENANA6sejDtkCqD
Watching a movie.
675Please respect copyright.PENANAQT9UMl247z
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.
675Please respect copyright.PENANAQD2UEalwwc
Dave was not happy with it, but Nathan was.
675Please respect copyright.PENANAX2JP8Z52n4
So here we are: watching Letters to Juliet together.
675Please respect copyright.PENANAYKiQEvaOs3
Lights were dimmed. Popcorn was ready. And Letters to Juliet was playing.
675Please respect copyright.PENANATjTigmEPWm
Nathan was already bored out of his mind, he was yawning, and staring at the television with narrowed eyes.
675Please respect copyright.PENANAnlhk0ZArhh
I had to stare at him for exactly twenty seconds, in order to be able to notice that he wasn't blinking.
675Please respect copyright.PENANA8nshqWa92o
He wasn't talking.
675Please respect copyright.PENANAWu7l8dsgvF
And he definitely wasn't watching the movie with us.
675Please respect copyright.PENANAM3ySJoQ0Zi
He was not even having any popcorns.
675Please respect copyright.PENANApyULpFdod1
He looked worried, nervous and very tired.
675Please respect copyright.PENANAruISIfLUQV
"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.
675Please respect copyright.PENANALmihVFxTxv
I felt heat rush into my cheeks, ears, and neck.
675Please respect copyright.PENANAGr1sx1foIj
Oh god! This is very humiliating, Rachel caught me staring at her brother like a maniac.
675Please respect copyright.PENANA8m7NipvRcd
What could she think of now? Maybe she'll think I have something for Nathan?
675Please respect copyright.PENANAHU5S9Xhstw
"Hmmm?" I said, swallowing hard. And putting a fistful of popcorn into my mouth.
675Please respect copyright.PENANAVV7jaB84Py
Rachel suddenly smiled, as if she hasn't just caught me staring at her brother. As if she doesn't actually care about it.
675Please respect copyright.PENANArgmReaxVjG
"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.
675Please respect copyright.PENANAHSikxVRwbt
"Yeah." I said, " what should we watch?"
675Please respect copyright.PENANAuAuBzJdqZs
"Hmmm... How about Taken?" Rachel offered.
675Please respect copyright.PENANAcPGtxwZeGA
"Yesssssss!!!!" Dave said as he threw his fist in the air.
675Please respect copyright.PENANA0hRLKpgCwt
O-kay.
675Please respect copyright.PENANAwUGJkM59cw
"Alright then, Taken it is." I said, nodding my head.
675Please respect copyright.PENANAhwMhopRrHU
I quickly changed the CD in the CD player into Taken.
675Please respect copyright.PENANA11HhbmN5YC
The movie played, but Nathan's reaction and expressions were the same.
675Please respect copyright.PENANAtGAMCdCAPm
He was still not blinking.
675Please respect copyright.PENANAjB49pC021o
He was still not talking, and was silent as a rock.
675Please respect copyright.PENANAOYlJ7OGfua
And he still looked in deep thoughts.
675Please respect copyright.PENANAGjK1lhPFiq
I shrugged and looked away. Maybe he has girl problems. It's not my business. His closest friend is with him after all.
675Please respect copyright.PENANA5l1Q77MCyU
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).
675Please respect copyright.PENANA9Y5oQ4LhP5
I giggled at them. And continued watching the movie.
675Please respect copyright.PENANANzfv3A4Yj1
It was when Bryan Mills (Liam Neeson) was looking for her daughter in Paris, when I felt someone's eyes on me.
675Please respect copyright.PENANAvQZWRJ76Zv
Not for ten seconds.
675Please respect copyright.PENANA0F7sspnfPD
Or twenty seconds, like me.
675Please respect copyright.PENANACScg4z6Vn2
Or even a minute.
675Please respect copyright.PENANAnU5aDaPA0s
But Nathan was staring at me for more than a three minutes.
675Please respect copyright.PENANARfnmELUBMa
There was definitely something wrong with him today.
675Please respect copyright.PENANA2brppcVJT8
I shifted uncomfortably in my seat, and tried to focus on the movie. But Nathan's eyes were still on me.
675Please respect copyright.PENANAt3VFw57Hsz
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.
675Please respect copyright.PENANAznUzhkwuke
I frowned and felt every hair on my body stand out.
675Please respect copyright.PENANAtE91sKpniv
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.
675Please respect copyright.PENANArh9S0ZWpmm
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.
675Please respect copyright.PENANAnfGbVwiv1c
I was humming the lyrics of Thunder by Imagine Dragons all the way to the kitchen.
675Please respect copyright.PENANAgn6RcZwFK1
When my bowl was full enough, I turned around and dropped the bowl in my hands as I let out a gasp. "Arghhh"
675Please respect copyright.PENANAF8Tb98IaVM
Nathan chuckled and stared at the mess I've done.
675Please respect copyright.PENANAQkrWzYdMjl
The bowl was broken into thankfully large pieces, I bent down on my knees and started to collect the pieces.
675Please respect copyright.PENANAs6msewMuyZ
Nathan did the same, we both finished collecting the broken pieces, and threw them in the trash can.
675Please respect copyright.PENANA5e6yHl6a4w
"You're not hurt, are you?" He asked.
675Please respect copyright.PENANA6RZn0y0SYz
I frowned in confusion, I'm not hurt, I guess... I just got scared.
675Please respect copyright.PENANAz5EJPyjQ6r
"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"
675Please respect copyright.PENANAkS5LXQqK1W
"Oh..." I muttered, feeling stupid. "I'm fine"
675Please respect copyright.PENANASQr5TNSqhq
"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.
675Please respect copyright.PENANAxUs0oUGG71
"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.
675Please respect copyright.PENANA0g7IQvvrdj
"Sure" I say, and smile. Whatever it is he wants to tell me, I really hope I can help him with it.
675Please respect copyright.PENANAalhTz2dJ8C
The poor guy looks very sad.
675Please respect copyright.PENANABJoSys6Q1e
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.
675Please respect copyright.PENANATBmq9IdsS4
He finally opened his mouth and uttered only three words, which changed my life entirely.
675Please respect copyright.PENANAkGLGAVIAip
"Be my girlfriend"
