"Shy, are you? I find that a little hard to believe, Nathan." Derrik smiled at Nathan as he approached him and laced fingers with his. "But that might just have something to do with those heated looks you were giving me yesterday. There was nothing shy about that at all." Derrik teased, pleased by how easily Nathan blushed. He usually did find himself with the shy ones. It was much more fun to slowly coax them away from their inhibitions. He hadn't quite expected it from Nathan, though; Derrik was under the incorrect assumption that Nathan had several experiences under his belt.

Nathan chuckled. "My uncle told me about something called the Grace charm. It's apart of the men of my families personalities. I think its a mental disorder. When we see someone that pleases us, we turn into sexy, flirty, hounds. I try to surpress it, and I can unusually well." Nathan said, as he interlocked his fingers with Derrik. He smiled at Derrik and giggled nervously, before looking back down at his feet.

"Internet, during high school when my parents were busy... doing stuff, and my sister in collage. I had to do the cooking by my self. When I didn't got out and eat with you guys, I sat at home in front of the computer bored with nothing to do and stomach growling. I took up cooking from there basically." I looked in awe at Arnnie's manners and felt slightly embarrass eating in front of him. I took a sip of water and grabbed large portions of the side and ate slowly, than I took large portions of the main dish. "Hope you don't mind my barbaric manners." I said jokingly and truthfully at the same time.

Derrik raised his eyebrows a fraction and chuckled. The Grace charm, was it? It was effective. "You don't have to be embarrassed about it. It worked because I love it when someone looks at me with desire. I am not ashamed of that at all. It makes me feel empowered and sexy. I cannot ask for much better than that, now can I?" Derrik smiled, hoping the admission would make Nathan a bit less nervous about his own. "Come on, I've kept you to myself in here long enough. For now, anyway." Keeping one of Nathan's hands in his, Derrik leads him out of the room.

"Really?" Arne replied, interested. "I never knew that internet ever taught anything good. Take my brother for instance, he taught himself how to grow marijuana on Youtube." Suppressing a small laugh when she mentioned his manners. "Actually I kind of despise manners... My mind is well-practiced and uses them by habit. Anyone would have them if they were locked in a house of wealthy snobbish people for eight years. My parents almost turned me into a robot." He sighed and ate some more food, followed by a sip of water before returning his attention to Lila.

Nathan chuckled. "I guess not. And I guess I don't need to feel embarrassed." Nathan followed Derrik out of the room with their hands locked. But, Nathan didn't care. He was happy, and nothing or no one could change that.

"I see, well. Look on the bright side. You coming from a wealthy family mean no worries about loans and stuff ha, ha." I placed my utensils down and took another sip of water to help washed down the food. "What are you majoring in exactly? I never did find out since I left for China."

As they headed downstairs, Derrik could smell the food Lila had prepared. Was someone already in the kitchen area? Without thinking he let go of Nathan's hand and instantly began to regret it. It did not feel right to only be affectionate with Nathan when no one else could see them. He had no problem with the secrecy and neither did any of his previous partners, but none of those were Nathan. None of those had any strings attached and certainly none of them told Derrik they loved him so convincingly that he started to believe he could feel the same. Nathan just wasn't like the others. So why was he treating Nathan the same way he would anyone else? Derrik could not answer that.

Smelt the wonderful food that was being cooked. It was now officially the best morning ever. Nothing could take away Nathan's happiness. Until, Derrik pulled his hand out of Nathan's. It crushed Nathan's heart. He stopped in his tracks and stared at his hand. Why was he so attached to Derrik? It's not like he ever liked him before now, and the only history they had was their firendship. But, for some odd reason, he felt loved when he looked at him, when he touched him. He had felt loved when Derrik snuck into his room and slipped into his bed with him, and when he walked out of the room, still holding Nathan's hand. But, that was all defeated when he pulled it away. Nathan was crushed and ready to burst, but he couldn't move. Something told him not to move. And he wish that something would die and leave him alone, because with all his heart, he just wanted to dissappear. And his face read it, too. Read it like a book.

"Yea... Well, I guess." He sighed and finished the last of his food and water. "I'm majoring in Financial Economics and taking my minor in Business and Leadership." Arne pulled two mints from his pocket and offered one to Lila. "Would you like one?" Sighing, he was about to scratch his head but thought. No... I'd like to keep the hair ON my head... Putting his hand back down into his lap, he dropped his mint into his mouth. "What are you taking?"

When Derrik realized Nathan had stopped moving, he knew he'd done the wrong thing. He knew before he even turned to see the hurt in Nathan's expression. Hurt didn't really describe it; it was a weak and pathetic word compared to what he saw in Nathan's expression. "Don't..." Derrik did not even know what it was he was asking Nathan not to do. Don't cry? Don't look at him that way? Both. He wraps his arms around Nathan and buries his face against the taller man's neck as if he couldn't bear to look at that expression anymore. "Just don't. That was stupid; I'm sorry. It won't happen again." Derrik meant it. He couldn't hide away and hurt Nathan in the process. He didn't have it in him to pretend he didn't care how Nathan felt about it.

"I see." I watched him pulled out two mints and offer me one. I looked at him happily took one. "Thanks." Than I saw something weird. His hand was reaching to scratch his head but than went back down and pop a mint into his own mouth. Than I notice something else. Bandages were wrapped around his head. "What happened to your head? Is everything ok?" I made a worried expression and looked him in the eye. If anything, he can't lie to me. I have watched and studied him so many times before.
