Part Fifteen ~ Somethings Never Change -
Ellie's POV -
"Are you sure about this Nathan? I mean, only one of them actually likes me?" I asked, as Nathan drove us to the hotel he was staying in.
"Will you stop worrying El, everything is going to be fine. OK?" Nathan smiled over at me as he put his hand on my leg and squeezed it in a reassuring manner.
I know I shouldn't have felt anything when he did something like to me, but I couldn't help but smile and put my hand on top of his; returning the squeeze to his hand.
I looked across to him, noticing that he was looking at me out of the corner of his eye as we drove up a familiar looking road - it was the road which led to the hotel the boys were staying in, and there were still several fans standing outside the place; screaming as loud as they could.
"Is Max actually going to play hide and seek with Am then?" I laughed slightly as Nathan pulled into the car park behind the hotel, turning the engine off pretty quickly.
"I'm still going to win." Aimee laughed from her seat.
"I bet you are, and we'll help you win." I smiled at her.
"I know all the best hiding places in that hotel room." Nathan smirked as he got Aimee out of her seat and held onto her, leading the way into the hotel.
They seemed to being getting on with each other better than I thought they were going to, and he was enjoying the fact he was finally able to spend some time with his daughter; even if she didn't know that he was her real dad.
She just thought that he dad was some arsehole that broke her mum's heart. To Aimee, I was going to make sure he was a no one and I was going to make sure she never remembered the existence of James in her life.
She didn't need someone like that helping to bring her up. Just like I didn't need someone like that to love anymore.
We walked through the hotel, eventually making it into the lift where they had the same annoying song playing as the last time I was here; but it allowed me the time I needed to just take in what was actually happening in my life right now.
It was nothing more than a train wreck and everything always goes wrong for me, just at the point it all seems to be going in my direction.
"I like you Nathan." Aimee said out of nowhere.
"I like you too Aimee." Nathan smiled at her, as she wrapped her arms around his neck and gave him one of the biggest hugs I've ever seen her give someone she didn't really know.
"I love you mummy." Aimee stated over her shoulder with her usual grin on her face.
"I love you too Princess." I smiled back at her, the lifting pinging to show that we had reached the floor that we needed.
Aimee practically jumped off Nathan when we stepped out off the lift, running over to Max and Jay's door; jumping up and down with excitement as she knocked on the door.
Max opened it with a grin on his face as Aimee ran in there, knocking him to once side at the same time and he just laughed at her - I'm guessing that she must have been running around the room because I could hear Jay shouting at her to calm down, which made me laugh to myself about how hyper she was actually being.
"Will you be alright with Am for a little while?" Nathan asked Max with a hopeful look on his face.
"I suppose I can lose at hide and seek with her again." Max laughed, even managing to give me a smile at the same time; which surprised me somewhat considering how he spoke to me last time.
"Thanks Max." I replied.
"Anytime. She's an amazing kid, you've done a great job with her." Max smiled back again before he closed the door, leaving just me and Nathan in the corridor with each other; all he had to do was smile at me and I felt my heart melting like it always used to when he looked at me.
There were the same butterflies in my stomach that used to be there as well when he touched me, or kissed me, or just looked at me.
I was too busy looking into his eyes, that I didn't even realise he had taken my hand; he began to pull me in the direction of his room where he closed the door behind him as soon as we were in there.
"I wish you weren't going tomorrow." I sighed, resting my head on his chest as he wrapped his arms around me and placed a kiss on the top of my head.
"Where did it all go wrong for us El? I mean, before you walked out and before Aimee, what happened to us?" Nathan asked me.
"You were busy with the band, and I guess I just got tired of being left behind all the time." I muttered and, in my opinion, that was true and that were where it really started to go wrong for the two of us; at the point where he had to keep going away with the band and I was constantly being left alone with no one there when I needed them.
Yes, despite what everyone thought about me and said, I did actually love Nathan and he meant a lot to me; a lot more than other people ever did and the fact we had a daughter together made the bond we shared even stronger than anything I ever had with James.
"You should have told me El. I never stopped thinking about you, and I often wished you would phone me or something, just to let me know if you were OK." Nathan stated, making me feel even worse than I needed to.
"I'm sorry Nathan." I replied, as I looked up at Nathan with tears in my eyes.
"I love you El."
"I love you too Nathan, but is that enough?"
"It's always been enough for me. Always." Nathan smiled as I noticed he was slowly getting closer to me and his lips were becoming more and more tempting with each glance I had towards them.
"What about the others though? They're not going to like you if you decided you wanted to give me another chance." I giggled, feeling my cheeks warm up as Nathan was now just inches away from my lips; his eyes flickering between my lips and my eyes.
"I don't care about them. I'm the one that's got to live with the consequences." Nathan smirked as his lips met mine, creating fireworks to go off inside me.
It was like the first time we kissed all over again, just with a lot more passion and romance than I had ever experienced in a kiss with Nathan before.
I felt his arms make contact with my waist, closing the gap between the two of us and bringing our bodies into close contact with each other. My arms then made their way to his neck and it was like we had never even been apart, like we were still together and it was then that I decided I wanted to feel like this all the time again.
Nathan was the only person who ever made me feel this loved, and he was the only person I had ever thought about having a family with. I had even imagined what it would be like when we moved into our first family home and were married, perhaps with another child on the way.
James was good enough for me once, but then he turned out to be just like all the rest and he took away all the happiness he had ever given me; he loved someone else and she could give him everything I couldn't.
"So, what do you say then?" Nathan asked with a smirk on his face as he pulled away for a breath, his forehead resting against my own.
"I think, I need you to show me how little you care again." I smirked back at him, his lips meeting my own once more as Nathan pulled me over to the bed where we ended up collapsing beside each other with nothing more than a smile on our faces.
