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

“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

“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

“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

“Their love was poetry full of passion...” Natalie and Adrian got ready to visit around. Today according to their schedule they had to go to a museum during the daytime and then after lunch to the beach. Natalie and Adrian had better ideas so they went to a shooting range instead. It had been a long time since they had practice shooting.Natalie was loading the guns as she stood at her place ready to shoot. Adrian was standing next to her leaning against the wall with his hands crossed on his chest as he looked at her, but he was not as interested in shooting as Natalie was. This was her idea and he only agreed because they would be alone at least.Natalie held the gun up to her eye level and in just a few seconds she shot all the targets right at the center easily. She turned to Adrian nodding her head to the target board to take his turn. He sighed and took the gun from her. Pointing at the targets carelessly he then started shooting. He was hitting all his targets easily just like
