Going For The Goal

Chapter Twenty One

Nathaniel's POV

I was miserable. It has been four days since I broke up with Savannah and I regretted it, oh man did I regret it. Brayden and Austin had called a few times and once and awhile I would hear Savannah's muffled cries through the phone and every time my heart broke a little more. You're probably wondering why I haven't talked to her yet and I just can't after I was such a dick to her and then at school today I didn't help my chances with the mean comments my friends and I threw at her. After sitting on Jack's couch while he was out with Bethany, his girl of the week, I decided it was time to stop being an ass and hope I'm not too late to get her back. I dressed in a pair of bage pants with a black button down shirt after rolling my sleeves up to my elbows and grabbing my black converse I set out to my house. On my way I pass a flower shop and hoping it might help my chances I bought a dozen red roses. When I arrived the cars were gone, I had forgot they were going to see Mia and Parker, I still went inside hoping Savannah was there. I walked into the living room and she wasn't there when I turned around her back was to me and she was holding a remote as a self defence weapon "A remote really?"

"Going on a date tonight?" She asked softly

"Only if she says yes"

"Well she would be a fool not to" she gave a small smile

"Savannah" I whipped a tear away that had fallen

"You better get going. To ask that girl on a date" she went to walk upstairs

"I've made the biggest mistake of my life!" I called after her "I let you go" I whispered when I stood in front of her

"Nate. I'm not gonna be in a relationship with someone who doesn't trust me"

"But I do. I was angry when I said that. I know you wouldn't cheat on me"

"You broke my heart" She whispered

"I know and I hate myself for it"

"You went on a date with another girl three days after we broke up and you want me to believe you when you say you like me"

"Wait date?"

"Don't play stupid Nathaniel I saw you yesterday with her getting ice cream"

"Savannah that was Phoebe"

"And that's supposed to make me feel better how?"

I chuckled "That's Jack's younger sister Phoebe. Jack was busy and Phoebe wanted ice cream so I took her"

"Brayden never said it was Jack's sister"

"That's because Brayden didn't know"

"I know I broke your heart but let me make it up to you" he rose the roses "Savannah White will you give me another chance and go on a date with me?"

She smiled and nodded "Great let's go" I said

"Wait let me go change"

"You look fine" I said and she looked down at her flannel pajama bottoms and hoodie and rose an eyebrow at me "Fine go change" I laughed and she ran upstairs

"You look as beautiful as always" I said when I saw her

"Thank you" she slightly blushed and I was glad to know I still had that effect on her

"Come on princess" I said taking her hand feeling the sparks I've missed for four days

Once we get out to the car I opened her door for her and she gave me a small peck on the cheek

"So where are we going this time?" she asked excitedly and I chuckled

"Do you really think I'm gonna tell you?" I asked and she huffed in annoyance
