he spotted someone in the crowd, closing his eyes again before they shot back open when he registered the face. "mia?" nathan mumbled to himself then made his way through the crowd, accidentally running into people feeling like he had tunnel vision. he put a hand on her shoulder for a second and pulled her into a hug when he'd confirmed that it really was her then pulled away. "i'm sorry i just.. i never thought i'd see you again. what are you doing here? is rafael with you?" stupid question probably but his mind was racing a mile a minute. "when did you get here?"

he offered a smile hoping she wouldn't feel too embarrassed because he wasn't there to judge after all, things happen and nathaniel knew that. he instinctively reached out as if he was trying to catch her again when she winced after putting pressure on the foot she'd hit. "you sure you're alright? i'm not a doctor but i'm a firefighter i can take a look at it if you want, see if it even is doctor worthy." he offered.

nathaniel had just finished running a mile on the treadmill finding that easier to track his running than just going around town and using a phone that hasn't worked in years and is more a paperweight for him now. he draped a towel around his shoulder and dabbed the sweat off his forehead ready to call it at that when he spotted someone on the other side of the gym. they looked like they were too focused on their workout to notice the weight that got left behind them and tried to run over before they tried over it but was a tad too late, watching them slip on it but caught them before they could hit the floor. "you alright?" nate asked helping them stand back up to their feet.

nathaniel let him go when phoenix was on his feet again and let out an awkward chuckle, rubbing at the back of his neck. "force of habit i guess," he admitted with a sheepish smile, "promise i wasn't watching you. i just happened to look over at the right time." why he added that he wasn't sure but he internally facepalmed that he did.

“Great meeting guys, you all have yourselves a good rest of the day. I’ll be around to check on progress in a little while, I’ll be in and out of the office for the next couple hours so if you need me go through Lindsey and she’ll relay messages and help as she can.” He dismissed the meeting he held for one of the departments of his business, looking to his office, wondering if Elania was there for lunch as they always did. He was wanting to see her and really enjoy “lunch” with his girlfriend. Nate walked down the hall and into his office, seeing the windows were finally frosted over and he couldn’t have been more thrilled. @thoughts-onfire

Nathaniel couldn’t help but smile as he walked into the condo to hear his girlfriend singing from inside somewhere. He set his keys in the bowl by the door and walked towards her voice, leaning in the doorframe of their bedroom he watched for a moment before clearing his throat, “you sound so lovely, Mu. I love when you sing.”
