" no i just -- i don't want to stir up drama. i wasn't invited is all. you should still go of course! they clearly adore you and this gives me a chance to binge watch a new series. " / @gcldensnflwr.

" i'm not going to spend my time with people who don't value you. " the male’s tone of voice – straightforward, blunt, but honest – left no room for ophelia to interject again. it wasn’t often that nathan found himself having a night off wedged between a busy olympic training schedule and like hell was he going to spend it at some rowdy party than with her. unlike some of his competitors in the league, he wasn’t one for showy demonstrations of competitiveness or showmanship like a big bash to celebrate the start of a new season or even his own first placements in the recent swim meet. nathan trained, he did what he needed to do come competition (take home a gold and a personal best while he was at it), and then went home. he might have been popular but that didn't mean he wanted to be. " you can be honest. are we really about to watch a new series or rewatch the comfort one on mute with you reciting the lines from memory again? " a joke told from the boy's lips, though if one was unaware of nathan's personality, they could have confused it for something different by the ever-present dryness of his humour.

" why are you so up in my business ? fucking annoying bro. "

" you literally fucking asked my opinion. if you didn't want to hear shit you didn't like then next time keep your questions to yourself. "

“ you’re not as mean as you think you are — you know that? “ 

" who said i was mean? " as far as nathan was concerned, he sat firmly in the 'unbothered' section rather than the 'mean' category -- but a dry sense of humor and a face that couldn't quite hide his thoughts perhaps wasn't conducive to such an impression.

"you let one of your mates talk to me like that again, and i'll never fucking speak to you again. then...i'll go kill him." she pulled out her knife and waved it in his face. "see this? it's stabbed more than enough people, love. i won't hesitate."

“ jesus christ— just because you've got a problem with someone, doesn't make it mine. ” the calm and collected nathan moved his head away from the others knife. if he wanted to be involved in some bullshit today, he wouldn’t have worn open-toed shoes. " i'm not about to waste more time than i already have tellin' you to ignore them; you know he's just trying to start shit 'cause he thinks it's funny. you're the one letting yourself get railed up about it every single time. "
