-I'm sorry, the old Taylor can't
Come to the phone right now.
Why? Oh, cause she is dead!-

(Look What You Made Me Do,
Taylor Swift)

Nat's POV

-John...- I said and then looked at Steve -What does this mean?-.

Steve looked me and I could see that he was nervous.

-What are you doing here?- he asked.
-No, what are you doing here!- I said.

If he was with the police... oh my God, Chris would have been so angry!

-We can't talk here, let's go inside- John said pointing a door.

-Yes and then what? Will you arrest me?- I said.

-No, it won't happen. Nat please, trust me- Steve said.

Trust him? How could I? But my heart was taking control in that moment and I nodded without knowing it.
We walked inside the building and arrive to an apartment.

We sat on the sofa and John started speaking: -So, Steve works with us- he said.

I looked at him, I was so angry.

-You used me- I said to him.
-No I didn't, I...- he said but I stopped him.

-You wanted to use me to arrive to him- I said without pronounce our boss' name.

-That was the plan, yes, but... I was talking with John about the fact that I don't want to keep it- he said.

I laughed. Was he really thinking that I would have believed him?

-Nat, trust him. He is saying the truth- John said and I looked at him -Where is the old Nat? This is not you-.

-She is dead, there ia a new me now- I said getting up and starting walking.

-You will never forget, won't you?- John said.

I turned to him, anger in my eyes ans voice.

-Are you serious?! She was my daughter! How can I forget that my daughter has been killed ?!- I yelled to him.

John sighed.

-You have to overcome it, it happened and you can't do anything!- he said -The Nat I know would never ever give up!-.

I couldn't stay there anymore so I opened the door and left the building.

Steve' POV

-Nat wait!- John yelled but she didn't listen to him.

-She will say everything to her boss, we have to stop her!- he continued.
I got up and looked at him.

-Don't call anyone, I'll find her- I said.

-What?-.

-I can talk with her, try to calm her. I may know where she is now- I said.
John sighed.

-Fine but if you won't come back or tell me something in 24h I'll send my men to look for her- he said and I nodded.

As I imagined, she was in one of the gang's safe houses, the one where she brought me once during a mission, like if she wanted me to find her.

The door was open and I found her sat on the sofa; she was holding a photo in her hands.

-Nat...- I said and she looked at me: no emotions in her look.

I approached slowly and sat next to her.

-She... She is smiling here- she said and I understood she was refearing to the baby on the photo that probably was her daughter.

After a few seconds she looked at me: -Why? Why did he killed her?- she said.

-We can try to discover it- I said.

-How?- she asked with tears in her eyes.

-You won't say anything about me and John and we'll help you to find out who killed your daughter and tried to kill you- I said.

She thought about it and at the end she nodded.

I smiled and quickly texted John and told him about the plan. Luckly he agreed, he said that he would have started researches soon.

-Why are you doing this for me?- she said.

-You deserve to know who that man was and you deserve to see him in prison- I said.

She hugged meand started sobbing. When she was with me she was a different person, like if she felt safe with me.

I put her on my legs so she could stay more comfortable and she put her head on my shoulder.

I could feel her breath on my neck and that it didn't help me to stay calm.
I had never felt those feelings for a woman, what was happening?

I was lost in my thoughts when I suddenly felt her lips on my neck. That kiss made me lost all the rationality that was left.

I hugged her stronger and I felt her hands touching my neck while I was kissing her.

I laid her down on the sofa and started kissing her neck and shoulder while she put her hands in my hair.

In that moment I could see that lovely and soft Nat that John talked me about.

Maybe she was still there somewhere inside those walls that she built.
