AUTHORS NOTE:
HI! Thanks for the reviews and I really want to have the Patricia dumping water on Nina in this chapter so sorry if it seems a bit rushed. ENJOY! How You Love Me Now by Hey Monday. I Own Nothing!
You were talking to her
But messing with me
It's finally clear
You're blurring the lines
Are you disturbed?
Oh, now you care
Why do you race through my red lights?
Can't understand?
I'll slow it down for you
Tell me, how can you sleep?
How can you breathe?
Baby, tell me how
How you love me now
Tell me, how can you sleep?
How can you breathe?
I hate when you say
How you love me now
Save, save it for her
I'm not gonna hear
Your reasons and please-just-take-me-backs
We never were right
Don't waste your breath
You crashed and you're on your own tonight
Can't understand?
I'll slow it down for you
Tell me, how can you sleep?
How can you breathe?
Baby, tell me how
How you love me now
Tell me, how can you sleep?
How can you breathe?
I hate when you say
How you love me now
Lights out
I found out My falling star
Goodbye
The sunrise is here
There's no more you and I
Tell me, how can you sleep?
How can you breathe?
Baby, tell me how
How you love me now
Tell me, how can you sleep?
How can you breathe?
I hate when you say
How you love me now
How you love me now
How you love me now

"Well that's the Cafeteria. We eat by grade and we sophomores have the second lunch, so after period 5 we go to lunch." Fabian said and pointed to a large building across the field.
"Whoa that's huge, at my old school it was about half that size." I said in awe. Fabian chuckled then he showed me the rest of the campus.
THREE HOURS LATER AT THE HOUSE….
"Thanks again Fabian I had an awesome time." I said and smiled.
"No problem," He replied. Our eyes locked…. And then my stomach growled. Way to ruin a moment. I thought then blushed at how he laughed.
"Oh there you are. Supper is just about ready, why don't you too go wash up." Trudy suggested. I nodded then walked upstairs. I shared a room with Amber and when I opened the door and saw her there kissing Mick.
"Oh god, I'm sorry!" I said and covered my eyes.
"No problem. I was just leaving." Mick laughed then left. Amber was pouting then followed him out the door. I changed into tank-top and sweater. I washed my hands, brushed my teeth then walked down stairs and saw everyone was already sitting at the table the only chair left was next to Fabian.
In front of all of us was a bowl of soup and bread. I took a sip of soup (AN Do you drink soup or eat it?) and it was really hot. I guess you could tell I thought it was really hot because Patricia said "Want some water?" Then dumped the pitcher of water on my head.
"Real nice Patricia." Fabian glared at her. I stood up then ran out of the room. I left the house then ran to the music room where they kept the instruments. I sat down on the piano and wrote an original song that I made last year when I moved after my parents died. I met a girl just like Patricia, only she was nicer.
This doesn't make much sense
Think far out but I'm still locked in
I'm still lost, walking circles
The floor swallowed me up whole
There's no where to go
There's a vulture on my shoulder
And he's telling me to give in
Always hissing right in my ear
Like it's coming from my own head
It's got me mixed up, trying not to give up
Tell me there's a way to get out of here
Oh, fixed at zero
I've learned to talk with my fingers
The only that voice that wakes my ears
Oh make my bones do something
Ever wanna jump out your skin
Anticipate until the sidewalk ends
There's no where to go
There's a vulture on my shoulder
And he's telling me to give in
Always hissing right in my ear
Like it's coming from my own head
It's got me mixed up, trying not to give up
Tell me there's a way to get out of here
Oh, fixed at zero
There's a vulture on my shoulder
And he's telling me to give in
Always hissing right in my ear
Like it's coming from my own head
It's got me mixed up, trying not to give up
Tell me there's a way to get out of here
Oh, fixed at zero
I'm fixed at zero
"Wow! You're amazing!" I heard a voice say, I cautiously turned around and saw Fabian standing there in awe.
"You heard me!" I exclaimed. I can't believe that he heard me! The only person in the house who actually was nice to me just heard my terrible voice!
"You are fantastic! I can't believe you could sing like that, and great piano playing." Fabian came and sat next to me on the stool next to me.
"Thank you, my mother taught me how to play before she died." I said and blushed at his compliments.
"Oh, she died? What happened?" Fabian asked with concern dripping from his voice and showing in his eyes.
"About a year ago my parents were hit by a drunk driver and they um swirled of a bridge and um, ended up drowning in a lake. People thought they took off but they were good people! They wouldn't leave me like that! It took three months to find their bodies at the bottom of the lake! The funeral was on such short notice that close to a quarter of the people came! I kept thinking they don't deserve this!" I don't know why I vented to Fabian like this. It might have been because he listened or because he held me and let me cry into his shirt. But it just felt right and good. By the time I was finished talking I was full-blown crying.
"It's okay Nina, it's alright," Fabian whispered and rubbed my back. "Let's go for a walk. Fresh air always makes me feel better." Fabian suggested and I nodded just wanting to be anywhere with Fabian right now.
He led us outside and we walked around the park. It was silent for a while then a cold breeze can by and I shivered.
"Here take my jacket." Fabian said, but before I could protest he already had it around me and I just thanked him.
"Thank you for being so nice to me. I really appreciate it. And I'm sorry for ruining your shirt." I said. He just chuckled. We spent a lot of time just talking about everything and nothing.
"What time is it?" I asked.
"Oh, shoot! It's nine." We should get back to the house, Victor will be furious." Fabian said and turned us around.
"Victor really gives me the creeps." I said.
"He gives everyone the creeps." Fabian smiled and I laughed.
It took us ten minutes to get home. When we got home Victor was in his study and the rest of the kids were in the living room.
"I'm gonna go get ready for bed." I said but before I left I gave him a quick hug and a smile. I walked up the stairs and heard Jerome and Alfie whistling at Fabian I looked down and saw Fabian blush witch made me smile. I opened my door thankful it was just Amber in there not her AND Mick.
"Is that Fabian sweatshirt?" Amber questioned. I looked down then realized I forgot to give it back.
"Uh, yeah it is. I was cold so he uh, gave it to me." I said simply.
"You to would make a REALLY cute couple."
"WHAT! I just met him today." I replied then got out my pajamas. A pair of light blue sleeping pants and a white spaghetti strap tank-top.
"Whatever." She replied the left. I quickly got changed then I out of habit out on Fabians sweatshirt.
I walked down stairs and sat next to Mara on the couch. She was looking at some British-teen magazine.
"Fabian, why is Nina wearing your sweatshirt?" I heard Patricia sneer.
