Chapter 27

When I woke up the next morning he was once again gone. I could hear muffled voices from downstairs so I got out of bed and walked to the bathroom to dress up so I could leave.

As brushed my teeth with my finger-once again- I glanced at the clock to see it was almost time to go to that dance club with Katherine.

I was excited to say the least, because I knew the only way I would get into college would be dancing.

I checked Nate’s room once again before I walked down the stairs. I stopped in my tracks when I saw Nate’s mum and a man just coming out of the kitchen.

"Renee!" Katherine said surprised.

Once again, it looked like Nate and I had a thing.

"You spent the night here?" she asked confused.

"I-"

"I didn’t know Nate had a girlfriend," the man said.

"This is Larry, my husband. Larry, this is Renee, Nate’s friend."

I smiled and shook his hand.

"Um, where’s Nate?" I asked.

"He just went out."
