《Only You (BxB)》Chapter 16 - alone

Would he come?
Or not?
I stared at the clock, it's almost 1am already. He's still not here. I get a little worried and doubt he will come.
I sighed and sat down on the bed. Suddenly I heard soft footsteps in the hallway. Could it be him? If I looked now, and it's not him, it would be suspicious and Mom or Benjamin will think I'm doing something I shouldn't. What I'm actually doing already.
A little impatiently I waited and listened to the footsteps approaching. Suddenly it became quiet. It's kinda freaking me out.

I don't know how, but I fell asleep. And as far as I know no one came in the end, which really disappoints me. I feel so alone, I really hoped he would come. All my motivation I had, everything is gone. And there I was, alone in bed.
If I didn't get up, I know Mom would come get me and I'd rather not. So with a lot of effort I got up and put on fresh clothes. I went into the living room hoping to see Nate, but he wasn't there. I don't intend to ask after him again.
I smelled fresh coffee. Mom walked into the living room with a smile and she had all kinds of plates in her hands that she set out on the table. I wanted to ask her why she was so happy, but I kept my mouth shut.
Suddenly she looked at me. "Wow, Liam. You look like the world could end at any moment. What is it?" she asked. I looked at my shoes and shrugged. "Problems at school." I said briefly, I wasn't going to tell her that I miss Nate so much and that my heart is breaking into hundreds of pieces.

She nodded as if she understood. "You can always talk to me, huh." she said before disappearing into the kitchen again. The next person to enter the living room was Benjamin. "Good morning," he muttered. I nodded. Now Mom came back with bread and other food.
When we all started eating, I noticed that Nate still wasn't here. Did he actually read my letter? Maybe that was the problem, maybe he wanted to come but he just hadn't seen the letter yet.
When I was done, I stood up. When I turned around I saw Nate in the hallway.
Now is my chance.
"I have some things to do in my room" I said quickly to mom and walked away. As I got closer to Nate, I checked to make sure I was far enough away from the others. "Hi... Nate." I tried to say as seriously as possible, I felt like I could just cry and hug him at any moment.
He looked at me briefly and then continued what he was doing. I wanted so badly to put my hand on his arm but I stopped myself. "Can we talk please, maybe tonight or something when no one's around."
I won't give up that easily.
" i miss you so much, Nate. Please don't leave me."
I heard footsteps and felt panic overwhelm me.
"Please, Nate. Come to my room tonight, I beg you." I said. I looked at him imploringly and then hurried to my room. I made it to my room just in time.
Maybe I'll have better luck this time...
