Chapter 4

•Robert's POV•

I was beyond stunned when Nathan suddenly left like that. He looked angry and I knew he was angry. But I thought he would understand‚ that we were just drunk and things got carried away. Atleast that's what I tell myself. I'm not into men‚ am I?

I looked over at the window as I heard his bike. He just left and maybe I should just give him some space to cool down. I don't even have my appetite anymore so I stand up and go throw all my food in the bin before walking to the stairs and up to my room to get dressed.

I wear a simple red shorts and white t-shirt. It's Sunday today and as I expected‚ Dad would call me around this time.

"Good morning Dad."

"Morning Robert. You sound like you had quite the evening."

"You don't wanna know." I smirk rolling my eyes and before he asks me about my night because of how nosy and protective he can be sometimes‚ I decide to beat him to it. "Desna and I broke up. She cheated on me with Dennis and so now I'm done with her."

"That explains why her father called me last night."

"What?" Her dad called mine? Since when did he have his contact. "Ok."

"Okay? You're going to throw three years away just like that!?" My dad sounds mad and i don't get why he is mad. Desna cheated on me. Why am I getting the blame?

I rub my forehead‚ clearly not in the mood for this conversation. "I am not having this discussion with you especially not about my love life. I am over her. Infact I am glad I am done with her. I wasted three years of my life and now I'm free."

"Watch your tone young man! Remember that it was her father who brought food to that smart ass mouth of yours. Her father is major investor in this family company and I will not lose him because you could not man up and take your responsibilities seriously!"

I can't believe what I'm hearing. He's putting this all on me. Instead of defending me like a real dad should‚ he puts all the blame on me. As if I was the one who told her to suck Dillan's dick. I'm speechless at this point and all I do is take my phone before snapping it in half with my barehands. Pretty simple yet enough to take out my frustrations on. That annoying voice just infuriated me so much I guess I thought that breaking the phone would relief me of this anger. It didn't help.

Just so many people stabbing me in the back‚ walking over me—and I'm growing tired of it.

I go to my bed sit down‚ holding my head in my hands before closing my eyes. I really wish Nate was here. He always knew how to make me feel better and now he is angry at me too. But I can't leave things like this. I should atleast go talk to him about it and I might know where he is.

I stand up and go downstairs grabbing my car keys along the way and then I go for a drive. I need to find Nathan and I'm pretty sure he's had the gym. It's where he goes when he's angry.

~~~

Arriving at the gym‚ I slowly get my car parked at my usual spot. I have membership here too. It's the first time I come here not dressed in any gym clothes.

I slowly step out of the car and slam the door shut before walking inside. Upon entering it's not as crowded‚ as I expected. It should be easy to find Nate in here‚ but oddly he's not around here.

'I don't see him. Oh wait. Why didn't I just go check to see if his bike is parked here first!?'

I smack my palm over my face‚ feeling pretty much like an idiot before deciding to have have look myself. And I guess I was right. Nate is here. I see his bike standing at its spot.

So I walk back inside and go look for him inside the locker room. As soon as I enter‚ my eyes nearly jump out of my eye sockets seeing the scene unfold infront of me. It's Nate‚ between some girl's legs on a bench.

Great. Second time in a row. And I don't know why I keep walking in on these scenes and why only this time I kind of feel about disturbed about it. 'That's supposed to be me.'

"Oh shit!" The woman saw me and began squirming.

Both she and Nathan jumped‚ with Nathan confused on what's going on‚ till he decides to look back and he sees me. "Robert?" he rather hastily pulls his shorts back up. His bulge pretty evident and i can still see it through his shorts.

The woman also got dressed in her leggings and gym bra before she made her way out of the room. Trying to apologize while looking utterly embarrassed and I am too shocked to even care.

"You shouldn't have seen that." Nate says ruffling his messy hair.

I just look away and fold my arms before only nodding. "…I just wanted to say that I was sorry if what I said did upset you. But clearly…you couldn't wait before jumping between another woman's legs‚ right?"

Fuck. I can't believe I just said that.

"You made it clear that you regret last night Robert. And I moved on." Nate shrugged his shoulders and then walked to his locker taking out his duffle bag. "Isn't that what you wanted?"

Of course it's what I wanted. What was I saying?

"You're right. I just came to check up on you. Sorry I ruined the moment." I clear my throat again and press my lips in a hard line.

"No biggie. I can find someone ten times hotter‚ anywhere and anytime I want."

I can't help but wrinkle my nose when he says that. Sounding all too casual and natural about it. I thought he was angry at me‚ but now there's not even a slight hint of anger. I thought that he got angry over me not seeing last night the way he wanted me to see it‚ but now it seems he made all that fuss for nothing.

I don't get it.

"Goodluck with that." Is all I say to him. I want to leave but don't want to show him that I am bothered by any of this. I mean it was no news to me that Nate was a player. 'Does he make everyone feel the same way I did‚ last night?' No I can't think like that‚ but I do.

Last night was something amazing. Something I never felt before and he simply gave all that to someone else like it meant nothing.

As soon as Nate closes his locker and walks off‚ I rush to the door and then slam it shut before he gets a chance to walk out.

"What are you doing?" He looks at me clearly with a scowl on his face.

"Dude. What. The. Fuck!?" Today just wasn't my day. Ibget that my dad would piss me off‚ that's normal‚ but Nathan….geez I can't take it. "I don't get you! You think you can just walk off and fuck another bitch! What? Was I not good enough for you last night?!"

"Where is this coming from?" Nate asks me. This time he is the calm one.

"I don't fucking know anymore! I just…." I sigh and turn around rubbing my head before I just start pacing. This is so frustrating. " I don't know what's happening anymore…what's even wrong with me…"

"Are you jealous?"
