Nathan's POV

The night is cold, the kind of cold that leaves you freezing, but I barely feel it.

My blood is boiling, my fists clenched so tightly that my knuckles ache.

I stand in the middle of the street, staring down the car that dared to stop in front of me.

I've already caught sight of her-Abigail-in the back seat.

Her face is pale, her eyes filled with fear, and it's all I find myself focusing on.

The driver's irritation is written all over his face as he slams his hand against the steering wheel.

"What the hell is this?" I think he mutters, but I can't hear him clearly.

I don't care what he says.

He's nothing to me.

The only thing that matters right now is getting Abigail out of that car.

She seems she's in trouble.

My legs move on their own, carrying me to the driver's side.

I grab the door handle and yank it open.

The man is confused, his expression shifting from anger to confusion, then quickly to fear as he looks up at me.

"What do you think you're doing?" he snaps, h

    Abigail's POVI close my door softly behind me and lean against it, my head spinning from everything that's happened tonight.The crash of the vase, Nathan's smirk, the girl's cruel words-it's all swirling together in my mind.For a moment, I consider going straight to bed, pulling the covers over my head, and pretending none of it happened.But my chest feels tight, and my eyes sting with unshed tears. I can't keep it all bottled up.I push off the door and make my way down the dim hallway, my bare feet padding softly against the wooden floor.I don't even think about where I'm going until I'm standing outside my mom's bedroom.The door is closed, and I can hear the faint hum of her voice inside, probably talking to Ricky.My hand hovers over the doorknob, the urge to go inside and cry into her shoulder almost overwhelming.She'd know what to say.

"You sure know how to keep things interesting, Nathan."Ignoring her, I glance at Abigail, whose face has turned an impressive shade of red.It's hard to tell if it's from embarrassment or anger, but either way, it's amusing.The girl doesn't wait for me to respond.She steps closer, as she grabs the front of my shi

    Abigail's POVAfter what felt like minutes filled with pain, I decide to walk away.I don't notice when my dress clashes with the vase just outside the room.My heart beats fast in my chest as I stare at the shattered vase on the floor.The sound of it breaking echoes in my ears, blending with the rising panic swirling in my head. The pieces are scattered everywhere."What was that?" Nathan's sharp voice cuts through the air, his tone full of irritation and suspicion.I freeze, unable to breathe, as I hear the heavy thud of his footsteps approaching the door.My stomach twists painfully, and before I can think of what to do, the door swings open.Nathan steps into the hallway, his dark eyes locking onto mine immediately.His expression is cold, his jaw tight as he takes in the mess on the floor.

Normally, I'd be laughing too, letting the moment ease the tension of the day.But my attention keeps drifting.Out of the corner of my eye, I see Nathan pull out his phone.His shoulders are relaxed at first, but as he reads whatever is on the screen, his entire demeanor shifts.The casual slouch disappears, replaced by a tension. His jaw tightens, his brows drawing together, and for a brief moment, I catch something in his expression. I try to look away, to ignore the moment and give him his privacy, but it's impossible to shake the image of his clenched fist and the subtle furrow in his brow.He locks his phone, shoving it into his pocket with a force that makes the action seem almost aggressive."I'll be right back," he mutters, barely audible over the conversation at the table.He pushes his chair back abruptly, and without waiting for anyone

    Abigail's POVI sit curled up on my bed, hugging my knees to my chest. The events of the day replay in my mind-Luca's hurt expression, Nathan's gaze in the cafeteria, the mess of emotions I can't seem to untangle.A lump forms in my throat. It feels heavy and suffocating. I blink the tears away, but it's no use. They come anyway, hot rolling down my cheeks in streams I can't control.I can't keep this all bottled up anymore.Sliding off the bed, I walk toward Mom's room, my socks muffling my footsteps.Her door is slightly ajar, and I can hear the soft sound of the TV inside. I knock lightly, wiping at my cheeks as I push the door open.She looks up from the bed, where she's sitting cross-legged with a blanket draped over her lap. Concern flickers across her face the moment she sees me."Abigail? What's wrong?" she asks, setting the remote down and patting the spot next to her.I hesitate for a second before walking in and sinking onto the bed beside her.The second her arm wraps arou

It clings to me, creeping into my thoughts with every step. His words echo in my mind, sharp and unrelenting."You don't get to decide what I deserve."The way his face crumpled, the hurt flashing in his eyes, cuts deeper than I expected. Guilt wells up inside me, but there's something else too-a gnawing sense of frustration.
