Over Again ~ Sequel to Loverboy - Nathan Sykes Fanfic.

Chapter 16. || "Rollercoasters and heights."

- I don't know... I just... See, I could go to Columbia, I know Architecture's a really good career there... Obama studied there. - 

- NO, YOU ARE NOT CHANGING TO ANOTHER UNIVERSITY! - 

- But how can I- -

- I'm saying that we will all help you guys, your Faculty deserves to be treated with the same respect as the other ones... - 

I still wasn't sure about it, but I also didn't want to change to another college. - Okay... I'm in with washing cars and selling cakes, but don't expect me to organize the marathon. I will not do it. - 

- See? That's my girl... Never giving up her role as a powerful woman in society! - She threw her arm around my shoulder and I laughed. It felt good to do it. 

She might be right about not giving up, but my brain was still circling around the thought that I had done all of this for nothing. I had planned everything, and nothing turned out right. I had brought the boys here for nothing.

Maybe it was for something, I started thinking, what if you didn't ask them to play that concert? Would you have still found out the truth about you and Nathan? Would you have talked to him again?

I stumbled upon my bed and stood up, again - What were you doing? - I asked Roxanne.

- I went out with Josh for lunch. By the way, he says you did an excellent job with the concert. You all did an amazing job. - She got out a packet of bubblegum from her drawer. She offered me one, but I rejected it. - Oh, the other day I didn't have the opportunity to talk to you... What's happening between you and Nathan? What happened that night at the hotel? - She wiggled her eyebrows suggestively.

I punched her arm playfully. - C'mon, you know I'm not one of those girls. - I said, but she was still mocking me. For a moment, I debated whether to tell her or not about what Nathan had said to me, but then, she was my best friend, and I needed to know her opinion about it. I needed to know she would be there for me no matter what happened. I cleared my throat. - Actually, there's something you need to know... -

Her mouth instantly shaped like an "O". - What did you do? Oh Ashley, you're only eighteen! -

- Stop, would you? - I knew I was blushing, but I didn't make a deal out of it. And, what was the problem if I was only eighteen? - See, Nathan told me a lot of things that night. I asked him why he told me all those things in Paris -remember I told you?- and well, he said all the truth. -

- Oh... - She looked ashamed for a moment. - That's... I don't know if it was bad for you or good. -

I smirked. - You deserve to know it as well, you're my best friend, you know. Besides, it's more of my deal than his, so I get to tell it to whoever I want. - I took a deep breath, and thought for a moment on how to start.

Minutes passed and the thoughts were pouring out of my mouth like a torrent. Roxanne's face changed from sad to angry, from angry to bewildered. And, somehow I knew that mine was too, because reliving that moment wasn't as easy as thought it was going to be. However, I knew that all now was safe, and Dionne couldn't do anything to me.

- I can't believe... I mean, she's got problems and I... I don't know what to say, I'm sorry Ash, you don't deserve it. - She hugged me and my lips curled into a smile. That's all I needed, my sister by my side.

- Yeah, thanks. But, hey! There's a good part... Nathan's no longer with her anymore. - I raised my eyebrows and smiled.

- Oh God that's right! - She gasped and smiled back at me. - Have you guys talked about... You know, how you feel and stuff? -
