Lily Dearest | Nate Hardy - S&C

14. Home

We arrived at the airport back from Kentucky. I was tired and wanted to pass out. I also wanted to see Gar and Nate of course. When we landed I saw Kat, Sam, and Colby all with their phones out.

"What are you doing?" I asked laughing a bit as we walked through the sea of people.

"We are documenting," Kat added.

"For XPLR channel." Sam and Colby added. I just shook my head tugging my suitcase with me. Walking through the people I saw someone standing off by themselves, coming through the doors into the airport. It looked like Nate, but he had short hair. It was Nate. He had short hair. I stopped trying to see if it was him or not. then he smiled. I couldn't help myself, I took off running through the airport. Nate was ready when I threw myself at him.

"Hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi." I smiled. He laughed at my neck as he wrapped his arms around my waist. 

"Never gets old." He said slowly letting me down. I kissed him. He leaned back again and I smiled.

"You got your hair cut off." I smiled running my hands through his short hair. He smiled and caught my wrists.

"I know it was a surprise," He added. I rested my hands on the back of his neck now.

"I love it," I said kissing him again.

"I am glad." He laughed. I paused before seeing Sam, Kat, and Colby moving around us still videoing.

"You knew," I narrowed my eyes at them. Kat gave me my suitcase.

"Of course," She winked.  "This video is so fucking cute, I will send it to you." She said to Nate.

"Going on XPLR club." Sam smiled putting the camera down.

"Look at his hair, it's all gone," I said placing my hands on his chest.

"You both are so cute, I literally can't," Stas said smiling at both of us.

"Oh, how is Gar?" I asked.

"Our son is okay, he misses you though I can tell." He added tucking my hair behind my ear.

"So we know who favorite is." I smiled and Nate nodded.

"I think you are everyone's favorite Lil," He kissed my cheek. 

"Not mine!" Colby laughed.

"Well you are mine," Nate lifted my chin kissing me. Nate was utter perfection. I don't know how many times I can say that about him, but honestly, Nate deserves the world and more. He has such an old soul and that is very rare to see. Especially in our generation. He is traditional and too kind for this cruel world. He is too kind for me. "Alright, let's go get you unpacked," Nate said grabbing my suitcase.

"Aw, why don't you hold my suitcase?" Kat pouted looking at Sam.

"Damn it man stop being so nice, you are making me look bad." Sam laughed and Nate smiled.

"Sorry man, but," Nate interlaced our hands. "She is my favorite." Colby and Sam both gasped.

"What about us?" Colby asked.

"What about our years together? Were they not enough?" Sam looked like he was going to cry.

"I still love you both so much, but Lily is my person." I smiled and slid closer to him.

"Seriously guys you are making me feel bad about being single," Stas added.

"Date Colby," I suggested and Kat slapped my arm. I hissed and leaned into Nate making him take a few steps away from them. "Sorry, sorry, sorry."
