Chapter 16: C H A P T E R - X V I

There was a tense and awkward silence after Clade said that, and since then Nate has been tense and rigid, Elijah clenching his fist again and again, with a scary calm look present on his face.

"Aw would you look at that, if I didn't know you better I'd almost thought you aren't very happy to see me", He teased, his eyes had a glint of amusement and mischievous in them. His voice held an undertone of anger despite his front of a silly bad boy. I know there was more to this whole act. I have seen it. I have witnessed it at the art class.

Elijah stood up aggravated, his chair falling back from the force, and Nate pressed his lips down impressed and stood up as well. I felt awkward being the only one sitting when my friends were standing so I awkwardly stood up as well. I looked at the half-eaten pancake and I sneakily picked that up and the juice box as well.

Nate noticed what I was doing, and winked at me doing the same.
