Chapter nine:
This chapter is dedicated to sweet_candy1125. If it wasn’t for you I’d have either put this story on hold for a while or maybe even trashed it cuz it wasn’t doing as good as my other stories so YAY!!! This is how I react when beautiful readers comment me =D *cough*so comment me *cough*
I kinda left this story for ages cuz I didn’t really like the last chapter cuz it left me in a rut to continue onwards and I had no idea how to write this chapter. So obviously I thought procrastinating would help. Lol does it ever? *shakes head and rolls eyes*
Anyhoo I’m breaking my exercise scheme and healthy eating atm by eating chocolate (GOD I LOVE CHOCOLATE!) now and a few extra serves last night so if this doesn’t make sense or is weird… its cuz I’m hyper haha! Ok, this is pretty damn long so I’ll leave you to it!

[Nate’s POV]
Roxy was dreaming of me. By the sounds of it, she was having pleasurable dreams about me! I was stiff as a board from her moaning and waited for her breathing to return to normal. She tossed around trying to get comfortable and settled for her leg hooked over my thighs and yet managing to still lie on her back.
I couldn’t believe what I’d heard just moments before. The sound of her voice moaning my name over and over again was more than I could handle and I wanted nothing more than to turn around and make her dreams come true but I wasn’t sure how she’d take it. Did she enjoy those dreams, or was that all they were… dreams?
I sighed heavily and ran a hand through my hair. I turned to look her peaceful face, completely void of the facial expressions of the pleasure she’d just been moaning about. Maybe I could take it slowly? Maybe I could slowly let her realize my feelings for her.
***
I woke up to a tingling sensation on my lower area and I thought it was the sheets covering me and Roxy. Boy was I wrong. I was lying on my back and Roxy was spread all over me like usual, I smiled, I loved our sleeping arrangements now. Her head was resting on my chest and I could feel her legs tangled with mine under the sheets. As I wriggled a little I froze when I realized that her hand that disappeared under the sheets was, in fact, resting over my er*ction. The realization only made my arousal stand up straighter and I groaned.
What the hell am I going to do? Obviously, I needed to move!
First things first, I slowly moved my hand to slide her hand off but this only resulted in her grabbing a hold on it. Oh no… oh no, no, no, no. But yes, oh yes, yes, yes.
“Rox… Rox honey, you need to move your hand” I whispered to her.
[Roxy’s POV]
“Rox… Rox honey, you need to move your hand” Nate’s voice filtered into my dreams again.
Damn, the number of sex dreams I’ve had with Nate tonight is ridiculous and here I am having another one. I mentally shrugged my shoulders and opened my eyes to see his gorgeous face.
“Good morning, Naddy” I said, my voice husky from sleep.
“Good morning, Rox. Umm, you need to move your hand” he replied with an apologetic look on his face. It was then that I realized I held his huge throbbing er*ction in my hand.
It took me a few seconds to realize that no I was, in fact, not dreaming and I jerked away from Nate’s glorious body so fast I ended up on the floor again. I stood up quickly, mumbled a ‘sorry’ and darted to his bathroom.
This wasn’t awkward at all…
I decided that since I was in the bathroom I might as well take a shower and kill some time while I gathered my nerves so I pulled off my clothes and stepped into a cold shower. I stayed under the freezing spray of the shower until all I could think about was the shivers that wreaked through my body instead of the intense sex dreams I had last night.
What was wrong with me?
Nate is my best friend. I just went out on a magical date with a hot guy. A hot guy who was the polar opposite of my sexy best friend. I mean best friend!
I sighed and turned the shower off when my shivers were coming more often and my skin was covered with goosebumps. I stepped outside and wrapped a fluffy towel around my body before pressing my ear to the door to try and hear if Nate was in the room. I didn’t hear anything so either he left or was just lying in bed.
I took deep breaths and told myself to be the confident girl I was before the night of the attack and with that in mind I swung the door open and walked across the empty room to the closet. I grabbed a sky blue and white g-string and matching bra then slipped into my black tights with a little bow on the outside of each leg and put on on a light blue long sleeve shirt.
I threw my damp hair into a messy bun then left the room to head downstairs.
I rounded the corner and saw Nate sitting at the dining table with a bowl of cereal sitting in front of him. He was eating slowly but didn’t really look like he was paying attention to what he was doing if the puddles of milk around the bowl meant anything.
“Uh, morning Naddy” I croaked softly. I cleared my throat and threw him a quick forced smile.
As always Nate smiled back and slid a bowl with cereal my way without me having to ask for breakfast. He knew me well.
“Morning beautiful” Nate said. I turned my head to face away from him acting as though I could hear something interesting. I couldn’t. “What are we doing today?”
I breathed a sigh of relief when I realized he was acting as though this morning never happened. Thank God he didn’t know I had sex dreams of him last night! That would’ve made this morning even worse!
“I was thinking I should probably move back to my place…” I said without even thinking. I actually really didn’t want to. I didn’t want to be alone in my room where I was attacked and nearly raped. I didn’t want to be jumping everytime I heard a random noise at night.
“What! Why?!” cried Nate. His eyes were popping out of their sockets and his face held the expression of dread.
I shrugged and looked at the floor. “I just think it’s time for me to move back. I can’t stay scared forever.”
“Rox, you heard the police. I don’t want to scare you but they were pretty sure that the attacker was after you and what if he comes back? What if he actually knows that you’re by yourself and your parents are away?”
His questions filled my mind and now the attacker was all I could think of.
“I highly doubt he’d come back… and besides the only reason why the police said that he was after me was because he hadn’t stolen anything. Did you even stop to think that maybe he was going to rob my family AFTER he… you know… The police have no justified reason to say that.” I rebutted. I didn’t know why I was trying to get away from Nate. To be honest I probably couldn’t sleep properly without him anymore.
I looked up at Nate and saw that he looked miserable.
“Is this because of this morning?” he asked quietly.
Damnit… I really didn’t want to get into this. I guess I kind of put myself in this position though.
“Look Naddy… I just-“ I started to say before he interrupted.
“No you look Rox. This morning was nothing. Totally normal. And besides, it’s not like we had sex or anything? Don’t be nervous around me Rox.” He begged
He was giving me those damn adorable puppy dog eyes and was beginning to stick his bottom lip out in a pout when I sighed and brushed my hand roughly over my face.
“Ok, I’ll stay. But I honestly do have to go back to my place soon anyway.”
He perked up with a grin and decided to ignore my last comment while he happily ate his cereal. I joined him and soon everything seemed like it was back to normal and this morning’s little awkwardness melted away.

It was Monday again and I was pretty excited. Firstly Brooklyn would be dying to hear everything about my and Manu’s date, secondly, I’d be able to see Manu at school and thirdly, I was having my first defense lesson with Manu. I practically buzzing with excitement and apparently it was very obvious.
“Settle down Rox, you’re completely hyper this morning. What’s up?” Nate asked while he parked his car in the school parking lot.
“Nothing, I’m just… happy I guess?”
We hopped out and Nate swung an arm over my shoulders. We began to walk to the school building when I was practically ripped out of Nate’s warmth.
“OH MY GOD ROXY! TAKE YOUR FREAKING TIME GETTING HERE WHY DON’T YOU?!” yelled Brooklyn while she grabbed my arm and sat the both of us on a bench under the shade of a tree.”TELL ME EVERYTHING! WHAT DID HE WEAR? WHAT DID YOU WEAR? WHERE DID YOU GO? WHAT DID YOU DO? DID HE KISS YOU? DID YOU GO FURTHER-“
I winced and felt a headache coming on. Brooklyn was even more excited to hear about my date than I realized and I had to shake her to get her o stop screaming at me.
“Calm down Brooklyn!” I basically screamed over her. She stopped immediately and made an ‘oops’ face before giggling.
I heard a deep chuckle behind us and I turned to see Nate where we left him.
“I’ll catch you a bit later Rox” he chuckled, “See you later Brooklyn.” He nodded at us both and walked over to his friends giving them the man-hug.
“Soooo…?” Brooklyn urged me.
“Well…” I then began to tell her everything, with meticulous description, the ‘who, what, when, where, why, how’ of our date. Brooklyn was completely absorbed with my story she just sat silently with huge dreamy eyes and sighed at every romantic gesture. When I got to the part when Manu and I started getting a bit heated she was fanning herself with her hand.
“Hot dang he is one fine piece of hunkalicious ass” she sighed.
I laughed at her random burst and was thankful when the bell interrupted our silence. We stood up and ran to our home room before we were late. I burst in and I sighed in relief when I saw the teacher wasn’t in yet. I skipped over to the seat Nate was saving for me and grinned when he gave me a wink.
“Roxy baby, you are radiant as always” Rome commented leaning over his desk towards me when I was settled in my seat. I laughed his compliments off as always but noticed Nate was scowling at Rome. I’d noticed that he always did this whenever Rome was harmlessly hitting on me. I never took it seriously but it seemed like Nate didn’t notice.
Could he possibly be… jealous?
No… no of course not. Nate is my best friend, he’d have no reason to get jealous.
“Here” I shouted when my name was called out and when first period rolled up Nate walked me to my French class. He kissed my cheek and winked before leaving to go to his first class. I was getting sad pouts and scowls from the girls in the class and passing by and I just laughed to myself.
Honestly, I don’t know why girls get so overly jealous. I mean, they’ve been seeing Nate and I act like this ever since I got here and they’re still acting this way? I rolled my eyes. Whatever…
I spotted Brooklyn and took my seat beside her and during the whole class she kept throwing me notes and questions she forgot to ask about my date. It was quite humourous to see how intent she was on it.
***
Lunch time.
I took a stroll around the gardens of the school after telling Nate I’d skip lunch and just see him in our next class after lunch. I was looking for Manu and wasn’t very lucky so far in finding him. I gave up searching and instead went to lie down on a wooden park bench. I was rather enjoying being alone and took the time to breathe the freshly mowed lawn.
I stared up at the blue sky and began making out shapes with the fluffy clouds. I managed to see a rabbit, a dragon, a seal and a baby before I closed my eyes letting the rays of sunlight warm my body.
“Well, aren’t you a sight for sore eyes”
I smiled at the familiar voice and didn’t even open my eyes when I replied. “I could say the same thing about you” I replied. I cracked open my eye lids letting my pupils adjust to the sun. Manu was standing above me in all his magnificent glory. He was wearing baggy jeans that were slung so low on his hips I didn’t know how they stayed there and a white wife beater along with his ever ready straw hat.
“I missed you” he said while bending down to kiss my forehead. I smiled but I couldn’t help but wonder why that kiss, though sweet, held no feeling for me.
“I missed you too, but I am super psyched to experience my first defense lesson this afternoon with a certain sexy teacher”
He smirked at me and we chatted for a little while before the bell rang again. After my encounter with Manu the rest of the day just went at a sluggish rate. Then finally, FINALLY the bell rang signaling the end o f school today.
“Hey beautiful, wait up” Nate called behind me as everyone left the gym. “Want to grab some ice cream or something before going home?”
“Oh, I’d love to Naddy but I have my first self-defense lesson today. His smile dropped a little and I could tell he was trying too hard to look happy.”
“Oh… right…” He shrugged and his face went blank. We drove back to his place so I could change into some comfy clothes
I was so excited!
“I’ll drive you, Rox” Nate offered.
“Oh no, seriously don’t worry about it. I can get there myself” I replied.
“Nah Rox, it’ll be fine. I want to watch you anyway” he said with a smirk and I couldn’t help but roll my eyes.
“Fine, fine, fine… “ I mumbled. I wore my black tights and a baggy white t-shirt with a picture of Mickey Mouse on it
We drove up to the studio and I was bursting with excitement to have my first self-defense lesson!
