Chapter One: Her Return

Nathan, dropped his bags, right inside the living room. He couldn't live in that apartment, without her anymore. His heart had ached, for the longest time. He figured he just needed to pull himself from underneath her completely. He decided the best thing for him, and for his mother was to move back into the house. He looked, in the living room for his mother. She said she would be home, but he didn't see her anywhere.

"Nathan is that you," she said, coming from around the corner.

"Yeah, mom it's me," he called back to her.

"I've been waiting for you to get here," she said, hugging him tightly.

"I know, I had to get all my stuff packed, in fact I still have a few things in the car," he said.

He turned back toward the door, walked up to it. Reached for the handle and twisted it open. His jaw about hit the floor, when he saw her, standing there in front of him.

"Hi," she said, not sure what else to say.

"What are you doing here," he said, with a slight look of shock on his face.

"I missed you," she said.

"You've lost the right," he said, slamming the door in her face.

Was he wrong to have done that, he wasn't sure. He knew he still loved her, he probably always would, but all he could keep thinking was. She left him, she left him for the tour. He thought he might even be able to forgive that, but she left with him. That Damn Chris Keller, and how did he know, she didn't hook up with him. He knew that he couldn't trust, at least not right now. Trust was gone, that was for sure, it left the night she walked out on him, the night she walked out on them.

Please R&R...I'd really love to hear more from you guys.
