Chapter 15

• Nathan drove Tracy to the airport on Saturday morning, he glanced at her on the passenger’s seat, he couldn’t tell what was wrong but he knew that since yesterday from when she picked him up from school, she had been moody or kind of lost in thought every time. He had tried asking her what was bothering her but she had always replied with nothing. He hadn’t forgotten what he discussed with Steven and he had stayed up all night wondering if he was right. Could Tracy really be attracted to him? Could she really be noticing him in that way?
• Last night he had wanted to sit shirtless through dinner but his mother had called them home to have dinner with her, which was something that happened once in blue moon since she was often working late at night. Apart from last night, he couldn’t even remember the last time he had dinner with her.
• “Are you okay?” he asked Tracy but she didn’t hear him. He sighed, glancing at her briefly before taking his eyes back on the road. He bit his lip, wondering what it could be, yes she had been acting strange since Monday evening but Steven had made him understand why she was like that, but know it was totally different, it was as if something serious was bothering her. He couldn’t help but wish she didn’t have to go to work today, he was sure that with the right amount of time, he could get her to say what was troubling her. “Trace,” he tried again and this time she looked up at him, “what is it?”
