My Dad Turns Out to be Eyes

91

Nathan turned to Jessica as they walked down the sidewalk. "You must be cold."

"No, I'm fine" Jessica told him.

Jessica had no chance to protest when suddenly Nathan draped his coat over her shoulder. He smiled at Nathan's movements that seemed somewhat protective. Jessica tightened the coat and walked beside Nathan as she stuffed her hand into the coat pocket belonging to the young man, stuffing his phone into the coat.

"So.. are you okay now?" Jessica confirmed Nathan's feelings. "Ck, those friends of yours are hardly any fun at all. They continue to question our relationship situation. I thought they were very rude to you. Some of those people were actually making unnecessary comments."

"Partially only?" Nathan scrunched his amused brows.

"Well, maybe more of them." Jessica confessed back to him, suddenly Jessica's steps stopped.

Nathan took one more step to move forward before stopping. He was hoping that they could keep moving. Actually, stopping like this would only worsen the pain he felt in his ribs.

"What's wrong?" Nathan asked her. "I assume there's a reason why you stopped in the middle of a trip like this?"

"Of course there are" Jessica replied. "I don't know what to say. In the end it's your own decision if you want to keep seeing me. or. or if one day you really think that our relationship won't work out."

"Did I say that I don't want to be with you?" Nathan asked him.

"You never said you wanted to be with me" Jessica replied in a grim tone. "I even thought you didn't like me that much."

Sighing his breath, Nathan wondered how long it would take him to understand a girl like Jessica. Didn't Nathan have taken her out of the party. She took Jessica with her. At first Nathan thought it was clear that he had made a decision about their relationship but apparently Jessica needed to be told in person.

"You know that I like you" Nathan told him, "I just want that to be the most important explanation for you. I don't want to think about the age difference, or how you should be attracted to a handsome man who likes sports and not a fool like me."

While rolling her eyes lazily, Jessica took a step closer towards Nathan. He moved his hand to grab Nathan's face.

"You know that you're handsome, don't you?" Jessica made sure of it. "yes, I admit you're barely attractive, Nathan. But somehow I feel you're pretty charming."

Laughing, Jessica found it hard to refrain from moving her hands to the young man's hair. Nathan gulped his saliva violently as Jessica began to approach him. Nathan could feel Jessica's body getting closer and pressing down on his body. And he couldn't pretend that he didn't feel something passion running through his body

"That's a compliment" Jessica said. "You're new to relationships.well, me too, I guess. Even though I have been in a relationship with many people. But you're the only one I really want, Nathan."

Nathan took another deep breath and he wondered why his pulse was beating so much faster now. How could he possibly feel so warm and it seemed like his face was already flushed red by now. Nathan doesn't know, but being this close to Jessica without doing anything is something he's hard to overcome.

Nathan finally quickly lowered his head down, making the girl feel somewhat surprised when Nathan suddenly just pressed his own lips against Jessica's lips.

Jessica was even almost choked by that sudden movement. The power from Nathan caught him off guard for a moment. And the next second Jessica immediately leads the kiss, knowing that Nathan is not too sure about what to do. Because the young man had no experience for something like this. Jessica could feel a side of Nathan's painless hand was now on his hip and she immediately placed her hand on Nathan's shoulder.

Jessica wasn't sure how long they had been standing there to do this. He felt that Nathan had such thoughts as well. But the young man didn't seem to care much.

They only pull each other away when they realize they are out of breath and need air to survive.

"Well, that's good," Nathan said at last, he seemed to be panting, "by the way you were too strong to press my hand with your body."

Nathan pointed at the other hand, which is still being helped by a brace attached to his neck. Jessica closed her mouth.

"Geez, I didn't realize, I'm sorry!"

"It doesn't really matter" Nathan said, as in the next second he started walking again.

Jessica nodded and smiled. He slowly embraces through Nathan's arms free of support. Jessica looked up to see the dark sky. His heart suddenly wondered where his father was at that moment.

His mood took a turn for the worse after he prayed that his father would always be fine and go home soon. Jessica closed her eyes and focused on her arm embrace on Nathan's arm. He really needed something to distract him before he went crazy from worrying too much.
