Chapter 4: Arguments and Surprises

Chapter 3

 

 

 

***Daniel's POV***

 

"What the hell?" I heard Nathan say as he pushed me away.

 

I couldn't help myself and I started laughing at him. "What the hell is so funny?! I'm gonna kick your a*s for doing that," he told me.

 

I kept laughing and said, "but you liked it didn't you?"

 

"Liked it?! You kissed me," he said.

 

I laughed again of this guy is really something, I thought to myself. "So, like I said, you liked?"

 

Before I could do anything he punched me right on my abdomen. All the air went out of me and I fell back on the couch. I looked up at him and smiled, "I like a man that can throw a good punch," I said almost breathless.

 

"Stay the hell away from me," he yelled, "that punch is nothing compared to what I can really do." He ran up the stairs and slammed the door of the basement shut as he went out.

 

When I could finally breathe right I laid my head back on the couch and closed my eyes. I remembered the kiss and the way he looked as I kissed him. Sure he pushed me back when I kissed him but he could have done it since before so I have to believe he wanted it just as much as I did.

 

I sat up straight on the couch and looked towards the stairs where he had left. One way or another, before this party was over, I was going to find him.

 

I stood up and headed up the stairs. I opened the door and stepped back into the party. There were people all over the place as I made my way into the living room. I spotted him over by the DJ, I smiled and started heading over when I felt someone's hand on my shoulder.

 

 

 

***Nathan's POV***

 

I was standing, talking to Chris who I had just found arguing with the DJ, when I saw that guy. I told him to stay away from me and I swear if he comes anywhere near me, he'll regret it.

 

When I saw him coming I turned to Chris and said, "Hey, I'm done tonight, I'll talk to you tomorrow."

 

Chris looked at me and said, "sure, whatever," and went back to arguing.

 

I looked back to where I had seen Daniel and noticed he wasn't there anymore. "Well, I guess he knows what's good for him, "I told myself softly, as I headed out the front door.

 

My car was parked about a block away so I began walking to it when I heard someone say, "But I told you, nothing happened."

 

I decided to keep walking when I heard a second voice, one that sounded familiar, say, "I don't care if nothing happened, you were still with her. Whether or not you two did anything is beside the point."

 

"Come on," said the other voice, "You know that I want to be with you and I don't want to lose you."

 

"You know what Derek, you're right, you can't lose me," the second voice said, "because you lost me a long time ago."

 

"Come on wait," said the guy named Derek, just as the other one came and bumped into me.

 

The person falls and I extend a hand to help them out when I finally realize who it is. How hadn't I recognized the voice sooner?

 

Before I have time to move my hand he reaches for it, grabs hold of it, and pulls himself up. "Thanks," he says as he starts looking up, when he sees me he smiles.
