CHAPTER 24

(I think I still need to fix a few things, but here is a new chapter ;) )

I have a question, if you allow me to be curious. I haven't put any cast, but do you have one in mind for some characters of the story? Because I would LOVE to hear about it!!:D

I frown at his words as I sit back on his stomach. I put my hands back on his tone chest, creating distance between us at the same time.

Playing. This simple word has so much meaning.

Strangely, I feel interested. The gleam in his eyes reflects the smirk playing on his lips. His hands are still rubbing slowly my legs, making me discreetly shiver while his eyes don't leave me. I'm tempted to say yes. Playing with the devil to claim his throne, showing him I'm more than another girl, more than the girl he thinks I am. All kind of thoughts crosses my minds as I look into his dangerous eyes which have probably made more than one girls fall.

"I'm not playing with you," I nevertheless state as I get down off him. I grab my laptop that is resting on the floor and bring it to the desk to plug it without giving him a glance.

"Why that?" I can hear the surprise and the amusement in his voice as I can feel his eyes following my movements.

"What the point of playing when I can have you whenever I want," I turn my head toward him with a smug smile, raising an eyebrow at him before I look back in front of me. I bend over to grab the cable that felt on the floor and plug my laptop.

"You know you're sexy in those pants." The shift in the conversation catches me off-guard. I can hear the stupid smile on his face. I don't know if he is serious or still playing when the only things I'm wearing are a simple black jogging and an old grey top that are far from anything close to sexy. He drives me crazy, I swear.

"Thank you." I flash him a broad grin as I cross his playful attitude. We seem to be back to the light mood.

My answer makes him laughs, and I chuckle with him when the door flies open.

I jerk my head toward it, both surprised and angry to be disturbed in this way. The person responsible for this is better to have a good explanation.

A girl I never saw before is standing in the door frame. Her face is red, even redder than Georgia's. She is dressed in fancy short clothes, like she just left the party and black traces of what I assume was her makeup has run under her red eyes. Alessia is here too, standing on her side, her arms crossed over her chest as she displays an expression I can't read.

"You're such a a a...," the girl I don't know starts to angrily stutter. She is pointing a trembling finger at Nate, her tears menacing to make their way down her cheeks. Her gaze travels on the both of us before she bursts out of the room in a sob. We can hear her loud steps in the corridor rapidly fading away. I think I just met the girl he was hiding from.

Alessia shakes her head and gives us both a look before going after her friend. She looks too used to his behavior to even speak.

Nate sight and get up from my bed. He pulls back his hair with his palm and readjusts his t-shirt.

"It looks like you already have someone to keep you busy," I tease him.

"She seemed funnier yesterday," he mumbles as he lazily walks toward me.

"Certainly," I laugh.

"Do I hear jealousy?" He taunts me as one of his eyebrows raises.

"Of who? For you?" I scoff "I would need to appreciate you a little for that." I look him up and down with an attitude, crossing my arm over my chest as I smirk.

The truth is, I'm not jealous, I actually don't care. He can do whatever he wants with whoever he wants, but something twitches in me when I realize I just meet the girl he has slept with. I need to stop those stupid feelings from messing with my mind.

"I know it isn't true." His voice is so raspy that it makes me shiver. He takes another step, reducing the distance between us as he stares at me.

"See how your body react when I'm near you." He points to the raised hair on my arm. "And I haven't touched you yet," he almost whispers. He is so full of himself that I start to lose my temper. Or maybe it is rather because he makes me lose control.

"I can't control all the reactions of my body, and I never said I have no desire for you," I reply with a smirk. His upper lip twitches at my words before he draws the lower one in between his teeth.

"But I want nothing with you." I coldly reply. I'm looking straight into his eyes and see them changing colors. I can tell mine are so grey that the blue as probably entirely disappear. He wanted to play, so let's play.

"I'm going to show you how wrong you are." His voice is low, dangerous but full of promises.

"I look forward to it," I state back. Our gazes lock, and the electricity creeps back between us that we are both sucking for air, but none of us is ready to give up. His eyes are dark, and our breaths are heavy. The energy is such that, either we screw, or we kill each other.

"Are you guys...okay?" I hardly hear the trailed off voice like it was coming from another place, but it slowly brings me back to reality. Nate and I continue our eyes battle for few more seconds before we break it in a tacit common accord. I turn my head and see Victoria. She is standing in the door frame, her gaze shifting on the both of us, her brows frowned, probably wondering what is happening.

"I leave you...for now" His voice is so low, that I'm not even sure he talked. Right now, I can't tell if we were fighting or not. He walks toward the door and Victoria moves to let him go. She watches him until he disappears.

"It was...Intense...," she says, bringing her eyes from the empty corridor to me "and I suppose you met Rose too." I need a couple of seconds to understand she is talking about Nate's girl. At least it diverts me a little my thoughts from him.

"Yeah, she made quite an impression," I half-smile. I'm glad Victoria came, I don't know how it would have ended between us if she hasn't shown up.

Victoria goes to sit on my bed, but I stay near the desk, I'm not sure to move is a good idea for now. She briefly asks about the absence of Georgia, but I barely answer. My mind is so upside down that I struggle to think properly.

"So, what is happening between you and Nate? It looked pretty wild from where I was."

I sight. If only I knew myself. Everything goes so fast with him that I'm totally lost.
