Chapter#12 Just a Mistake

Natalie's POV

It took decades for my brain to process the situation.

Breath Natalie... breath

In

Out

In

Out

'hmphhhhh...'

Did I just kissed Drake Parkinson? More like he kissed me.

Hang on... it was dark... he probably didn't do it on purpose.

It was probably a mistake. A big mistake.

The lights went on , revealing Drake's face.

My eyes travelled from his turquoise eyes, down to his plump, swollen lips.

Heat crept up my neck at the thought of the kiss. In that moment, all I knew was that I was kissing Drake Parkinson, and it was mind blowing.

It's funny how feelings play with you. They make you do stuff that you know you shouldn't, yet you want to do it so badly.

Drake stared back at me and passed a killer smile, but then, his eyes turned a darker shade and he stopped smiling.

Was it lust? Or... regret?

"Alright everyone!"

Brenda finally spoke, letting my sigh of relief blend into a cacophonous blur.

"Well, as I said before, the person you just kissed is going to be your partner to prom, but, if you have any objections, well it's your choice. I don't really want to create a lot of drama, apologies if anyone got hurt"

Are you kidding? You don't really know what is it like, probably because you didn't get yourself a date.

Well, I have Mike Samuels.

"Natalie! Natalie where are you" Mike came rushing through the crowd as his eyes met with me, then his gaze traveled to my left where Drake was standing.

"What the hell is he doing here!?"

"Mike-listen to me_"

"Oh! So Mr. Golden Boy's gonna tell where I ought to come and where not to?"

Drake smirked; I could sense he was up to no good.

" I warned you to stay away from her!"

Mike boomed with rage, grinding his teeth.

"Woah woah, when did that happen" I pushed Mike aside, placing my hands on his chest.

"Well, you made a mistake, because Drake Parkinson is rarely true to his words... especially with people like... you" Drake said coolly, clearly enjoying the attention by the crowd.

Well I was the one who wasn't used to this much attention, unlike the two boys, who were in fight... because of me.

Before I could even utter a word, Mike charged at Drake and blew a punch to his nose.

I heard a loud 'Crack' and a cry of pain from Drake as he clutched his hands to his nose where Mike had punched him.

"Stop you two! Whats going on in my party!" Brenda pushed her way through the crowd.

"Know what Brenda, you are the cause of all this, if you wouldn't have decided to put that stupid idea of yours into action, we would have never kissed" Drake shouted at her, his voice sounding like it was coming from a micro-phone, as he had his hands covering his mouth.

"What! You fucking kissed my girl!"

"Mike stop it! Enough!" I screamed out of frustration, tears threating to pour out of my eyes. I hate this side of me, I don't want anyone to take advantage of my weakness, yet I always fail to hold my tears back.

"Yeah yeah what ever, I don't even care about what you and your girl do. I dunno why I even kissed her. It clearly was a mistake!"

That was it.

I let the tears travel down my cheeks as I looked at Drake not believing his words. Everyone's' eyes were on me and people started whispering stuff, which only made me feel worse.

Drake's expression softened and I could sense guilt on his complexion.

"Natalie I_"

"What happened!?"

"Great timing Hunter" Mike muttered under his breath, which Jack clearly heard as, he shot him a look of annoyance.

"Where's Melanie" I pleaded him to tell me where my best friend was. There was no doubt that I didn't need anyone but her right then and there.

"We'll talk about her later" Jack said as he placed his hand on my shoulder.

"N-no you d-don't understand, I-I n-need her" I said trying hard to bite back my tears.

"She's probably passed out in one of the rooms, that slut"

I boy shouted from the corner of the hall.

"Say that again!" Jack clenched his jaw and balled his fists.

"Please don't" My beg came out as a hoarse whisper.

Jack looked down at me and let out a sigh of despair, after nodding.

At least there was sensible guy around there and I was glad.

"Come on Drake, let's get outta here man"

"No wait! I want to talk to Natalie" he looked at me with a hurt expression.

"No p-please don't... j-just stay away from me. I don't need you"

The silence was teasing and I couldn't handle it anymore.

I started to walk away, the 'click clack' of my heels, being the only sound that filled the hall way.

I didn't want anyone to follow me. Especially if it was a guy.

I let the hot tears burn my eyes as I folded my arms in attempt to make myself warm. It was cold outside and I felt an extra amount of it as I felt too weak. My legs felt like jelly and wobbled as I walked. I was too tired to walk, my legs giving up as I reminded myself that I couldn't handle wearing heels for a long time. Don't blame me, it was in my genes. We all had weak legs.

I let myself fall to the damp grass as I kept on sniffing.

My throat felt dry and I gulped hard.

My hands dug into the wet grass as I plucked it off from the ground and threw each fragment, one after the other.

I felt a warm air fan my ear . "Natalie?" I jumped at the voice and my head bumped with a guy's .

"I'm sorry to scare you" Nathan gave me weak smile.

"No problem" I smiled back.

I didn't realize but someone like Nate was definitely the one I needed as a shoulder cry on.

"I'm sorry about whatever happened there" he said slowly.

I just nodded and wiped the tears with my palm.

"Thanks but, I don't need your sympathy. No offense meant"

I said simply.

"None taken" he raised his hands up and then shoved them back into his jeans pocket.

"Come sit" I patted the ground next me.

Nathan sat on the place and examined the sky with a thoughtful expression, while I hugged my knees and placed my head on them as I stared at him.

"Can I ask you something?" he finally spoke.

"Mmmhmm" I nodded.

"Have you ever gained so much attention like you just did?"

He asked, with a serious tone.

"Nuh uh. Not even close to it"

"Don't you realize that even then you attract too much attention?"

That kind of made sense as I thought over it.

So much had happened the past weeks.

Mike Samuels proposed me, Drake Parkinson became my friend, I befriended the two famous and hottest guys of the school and the Queen bee actually thought that I was worthy of talking to. And now, well you know pretty much all that happened.

"You're right I kinda don't realize the fact." I curt nodded while thinking about it.

I looked at Nathan who was, unexpectedly, staring intently back at me.

"What?"

"You are beautiful" He spoke softly, making me shudder and blush.

"Th-thank you"

" You are so beautiful that you don't deserve any of this shit"

I sighed heavily at the thought and rubbed my naked arms.

"You are cold... here have this"

Nathan placed his jacket around me and I slipped my hands in its sleeves, taking in the warmth.

"Thanks Nate, for everything" I smiled at him and he placed his hands around my shoulders.

"You can count on me if any there's problem" he winked.

I quickly engulfed him into a friendly hug and he quickly responded, embracing me back.

I let the tears come to my eyes, knowing the fact that I was wetting his shirt.

I suppose that he knew, but didn't say anything than whispering comforting words into my ears.

I never felt so relieved for a long time in my life till then.
