Chapters 182 & 183 Complicated/I Think We're Alone Now

*Trisha*

Julia Moretti has got to be the most complicated person I've ever met. Yet somehow, Nate is totally obsessed with her. And it's not just Nate. It's Paul now, too? Just like James before? I don't get it! Seriously, I don't. Watching Nate lose it when he found out Paul and Julia are a thing is definitely going to give his weak heart a workout. Fortunately, Nate has a full day to himself today before we travel to Boston, Massachusetts. A much-needed day off!

"So what are you gonna do all day today?" I ask, popping a grape in my mouth as we all sit together for breakfast.

"Not sure, but I know what YOU'RE gonna do all day." Nate flashes a smile my way, gaining everyone's attention. At first, I think he is flirting with me, which isn't surprising. He flirts with virtually everyone. He IS America's heartthrob after all.

"Oh??"

Yep, first I booked a day for you to relax at " Well at Mayflower Spa." It boasts five-star reviews and is recognized as a top-notch spa. You can take Mila, my treat. Then, you're heading to the Saltana Cave. It's this spa, kind of like a cave, surrounded by tons of Himalayan salt rocks."

"Oh, I've heard of these salt caves before!" I exclaim with excitement. "They're supposed to be very therapeutic." I turn to Mila, who only smiles politely. Either she doesn't understand or isn't impressed. Either way, she doesn't show the same enthusiasm I do.

"Evan, go with them. I'm not going anywhere today. I'm just gonna lounge around here and do nothing."

"Well, you guys have fun with that. We're going to check out this aquarium not far from here. Oh..that is... is that fine, Nate?" Jonah second-guesses the plans he made with Casey, wondering if leaving Nate alone is a good idea. Nate rolls his eyes at his nurse to let him know he's fine.

"You guys go. Enjoy. I don't need anyone with me here. Seriously. I may even catch up on some sleep." Nate admits, and we all silently agree. He looks tired. Exhausted, to be perfectly honest. I'm not sure what exactly is going on or if it's just the stress of being on tour, but the dark circles under Nate's eyes make Holly work harder to conceal with her makeup, and he is eating half as much or often as he usually does.

"You sure you don't want to join us?" Evan asks, feeling awkward about going to the spa with two women.

"I'm sure. Don't worry, Scofield, I paid for all the services they offer for three people. You can get a massage and a pedicure as well. You're off the clock today. Well, still make sure the girls are safe, but enjoy yourself too." Nate chuckles, and I notice him push his half-eaten breakfast to the side. I frown when I notice and see Jonah and Casey share a look as well.

"Are you sure you're ok?" I can't help but ask, and in return get the same eyeroll Jonah received from Nate.

"Positive. Just leave the food here. I'll take a shower now and eat later," Nate says, leaving his breakfast barely touched as he heads to the master bedroom. I let out an exaggerated sigh and shake my head.

"Ok, guess we're gonna have a spa day." I grin at Mila, but her eyes are on the closed master bedroom door, concerned for Nate.

"Penso che restero qui e mi rilassero." Mila mumbles, her eyes still focused on the door. I know some Italian, but it took a moment to comprehend what she said, which was that she wants to stay here and relax.

"Here, as in... this room here?" I raise my brows. I know Mila. If we leave her all alone with Nate, she will have her way with him. I don't think Nate is ready for that, and his heart is for sure too fucking weak right now.

"No, la mia stanza."

"Yeah, I haven't a clue what she is saying." Jonah clears off his plate and starts eating some of Casey's leftovers off her plate, making her laugh.
