Hey everyone. First off, I'm so sorry for not updating in forever. School, you know? Anyway, this defiantly isn't my best chapter, but I really wanted to get something on here for you guys. This chapter is dedicated to luverinreadin. Thank you so much for the corrections. It means a lot! I'll fix them as soon as I have time.
Natalie sat up on Saturday morning and rubbed her eyes before heading to the shower. She was supposed to meet Daniel later to work on their Ekat project. She looked at the clock on her way to the bathroom and smiled. It was eight o'clock. The perfect time for a Saturday morning.
When she finally finished getting ready she gracefully lifted her bag before heading to the kitchen. She guessed he would most likely be getting breakfast. Her suspicions were correct and she found Dan and Hamilton cracking up at the table. The room was empty besides for them. Natalie guessed everyone else cleared out or were still sleeping. She sighed before grabbing a plate and sitting down.
"What's wrong Nat, not happy to see us?" Dan teased. She ignored him and looked back down at her plate. Her head snapped back up when she heard something whistle past her. She turned to see some scrambled egg on the floor behind her. She slowly turned around and glared devilishly at them.
"Who threw that?" They both cowered in their seats at her gaze. She pulled out her dart gun and aimed it at them. "Answer me."
"It was Dan," Hamilton said quickly. "Don't hurt me!" Natalie turned her gun onto Dan.
"Thanks dude," Dan grumbled before he dashed out of the room.
"Daniel Arthur Cahill! Get back here!" She chased him back up the stairs towards the students' bedrooms and Amy stepped out.
"What's going on?" she demanded, stopping Natalie.
"I'm trying to kill Daniel, obviously. Now let me go," Natalie retorted, struggling against Amy's grip.
"Don't kill Dan," Amy sighed. "You don't know how much paperwork the Madrigals will have to fill out." Natalie ignored her and continued struggling. "What can I do to make you stop chasing Dan?" Amy finally asked. Natalie paused.
"Will you let me help you pick out your clothes for your date with my brother? We both know you need the help. No offense," she added at Amy's glare. Amy hesitated, looking for any other solution. She sighed as she nodded, defeated. Natalie squealed as she ran inside the room, leaving Amy grumbling behind her.
Amy followed Natalie inside the room. She sat down on the bed and sighed as Natalie rummaged through her closet. Oh, Dan owed her big time.
"Do you ever wear anything I get you? This still has the tags on it," Natalie commented, brandishing a light green sundress. Amy didn't respond. Natalie returned to rummaging through the wardrobe as a knock came at the door.
"Amy? Do you know where Natalie went?"
"I'm in here Daniel," Natalie called out to him.
"Are you going to kill me?"
"Of course not." Dan hesitated a second before asking another question.
"When do you want to work on the project?" Natalie bit her lip as she found yet another pair of sweatpants. She threw them aside as she answered.
"Meet me at four outside my room. We can work on it then." At this answer, Amy heard Dan's steps clatter down the hallway. She turned as Natalie spoke.
"There," she said, pleased. Amy found white shorts, a jade T-shirt, and matching flip flops laid out on the bed.
"Thanks Natalie," Amy said gratefully as she picked up the clothes. That wasn't too bad, she thought as she glanced at the clock. She was astonished to realize it was nine twenty. "I better hurry!"
"Can I do your makeup?" Natalie asked, following her around the room.
"Nope. Sorry Natalie," Amy responded over her shoulder.
Out of the corner of her vision, she saw Natalie slip out of the room as Amy grabbed everything she needed for her date with Ian.
Dan grinned as he adjusted the video cameras. He had planted the cameras out by the hammock and was planning to find out where Ian was taking Amy, and then follow them. He had finished getting the picture set up. He just needed to wire the sound. All of a sudden, someone cleared their throat behind him. He whirled around to see Natalie standing there with her hands on her hips.
"How did you get in here?" he asked irritably.
"The door was wide open. Daniel, what are you doing?" He remained silent as she took in the pictures on the screen behind him.
"You're spying on our siblings?" she asked in dangerously low voice. He nodded quickly, not daring to look at her.
"And you didn't think to invite me?" He stared in excited disbelief as she sat next to him. "After all, I am a Lucian."
"You'll help me?" he asked in shock.
"I prefer to call it working with you. Otherwise, it sounds like I'm doing you a favor," Natalie replied as she bent over the wires.
They began to work setting up the sound system. They worked quickly between the two of them, but they finished just as Ian sauntered into view by the hammock. He sat as Natalie and Dan grinned at each other. Dan was astonished at how pretty Natalie was when she smiled. An actual smile, that is. Not one of her scary smiles. Those are just awful.
He came back down from his musings as Amy entered the screen and sat down next to Ian.
"You ready Dan?" Natalie asked as she put her headphones on. He nodded and did the same. It's game time.
