Taking the disc had been easy.

First of all, Maddy never thought she would take it. I mean- why would she? Second of all, it was exactly what she needed to do to secure Nate's love.

This disc was the missing piece. The loose end.

And now that it was her's, Nate could be just her's as well. It would prove to him her loyalty, her love for him, her dream of being his girl. The Bonnie to his Clyde. His ride or die.

It also meant she had solidified the end of her friendship with Maddy. There would be no coming back from this, she had made her decision.

Cassie's dream was to be loved, a love so strong it hurts. To completely dedicate her existence to loving another.

She knew she could be the girl of Nate's dreams. Physically, emotionally, sexually and spiritually. She understood his wants, his desires, his triggers.

And Nate, with his desire to be the Alpha Male, a strong man, he would be able to command her love eternally.

So that afternoon, she asked him to meet her. Urgently.

I have something of yours. Her text read.

Nate picked her up from their corner and drove her to their construction site. The one he had taken her when they first started hooking up and where they had proceeded to have sex many other times since.

"I got this for you." She had handed him the disc, with her perfectly manicured hand. Perfect, just for him.

She had expected Nate to thank her and kiss her and love her forever. To spin her in his arms. To celebrate their love.

She had not expected for his large hand to grasp her wrist so tightly, pulling her so fast towards him and her shoulder almost felt like it may pop out.

"Where did you get this?" And he had tugged her again. "Did you watch it?" And again.

"Nate, you're hurting me." And the tears in her eyes and the shakiness in her voice pushed him to soften his hold on her. Or maybe the fear she now knew his secrets as well.

"I"m sorry. I, huh, panicked." And his hand took the disc from her shaky hand. "But I need to know everything."

"I swear, I didn't watch it. I swear." Her free hand had reached up to stroke his face and align his eyes with her face. "I just took it from Maddy, she said it was bad but that's it. I swear, baby." Cassie's voice was frantic as she tried to explain herself to her upset lover.

"Why did you take it?"

"I did it for you. For us."

It was hard to describe what hearing those words had meant for Nate. What it felt like to have someone so desperate for his love that she would go to extreme ends to secure it. Nate, who felt no love from his family or his peers. And this girl, so willing to offer her heart to him.

"Fuck, baby." And his mouth had gotten closer to her pouty lips, his teeth lightly grazing her lip. "You would really do anything for me, huh?"

His lustful eyes locked with Cassie's big blue eyes. Those eyes, always so shiny, filled with so many emotions. Fear, love, lust, sadness.

"Anything."

And as their mouths got closer, lips ready to lock, Nate had whispered to her "I'm sorry if I scared you earlier."

"You could never scare me."

Put us together, how they gon' stop both us? What ever she lacks, I'm right over her shoulder.
