"Thought you might want these-"
"Piss off" I mumbled as I sat in the pitch dark, hours having passed as I kept the damp towel wrapped tightly around my shoulders as I leant against the trunk of the tree at the bottom of the hill behind the villa as my hoodie and shorts were dropped down beside me, drawing my knees to my chest as I wrapped my arms around them
"You've been down here for almost four hours Amelia, we couldn't find you-"
"So? I doubt you wanted to anyway"
"Don't say that. Nadia is up there stressing like mad-"
"If she really was that concerned she would've came down and looked for me herself" I mumbled as I stared down at the ground I was sitting on
"Are you going to come up and get some food? You missed dinner-"
"I'm not hungry-"
"That's not the point-"
"I don't care-"
"Fucking hell Amelia will you stop being so bratty? You had an argument, so what? It doesn't mean that you go into a huff to draw attention to yourself-"
"I'm not bratty and I'm not wanting attention... I'm wanting trust! Is that too much to bloody ask for?" I asked Nathan as I turned and stared at him, leaning against the tree with his wand lit in his hand as I dropped my head onto my knees
"You tried to drown Holly-"
"No I didn't! She's my own sister and means the fucking world to me! Why the hell would I want to drown her?"
"You forced her under the water-"
"She aggravated me-"
"Siblings do that, okay?"
"It's not okay though Nathan! You don't fucking understand because you're an only child! Just because of my house I'm not going to be properly trusted by my family again! My twin sister, my own monther won't fucking trust me" I told him as I felt my bottom lip trembling, tears in my eyes as he sank down next to me and I furiously started wiping at my face
"You thought I was trying to drown her. You thought I tried to drown my own sister. You don't trust me"
"Of course I do-"
"No-"
"Amelia. I was only going off what I saw-"
"You've probably taken Holly's side as well. Everyone does. Precious little Holly could never do anything wrong" I seethed as I used the towel to scratch at my eyes as he let out a sigh from beside me
"You're so dramatic-"
"If you're going to be like that you can just go and fuck off, crawl back into whatever hovel you came out of" I muttered unhappily as the two of us fell silent, only broken when he started laughing. Turning my head to him, I stared at the grin he had on his face as he stared at me
"Hovel. Who said I came from a hovel?" He asked laughing as I shook my head and turned my head away from him
"So what actually happened?"
"It doesn't matter-"
"Amelia-"
"It's not important Nathan-"
"What is it with you and closing yourself off?"
"I don't mean to" I told him quietly as he let out another sigh and I turned my head to him, watching as he turned towards me completely, a small smile on his face
"You amuse me so much. Are you going to get up?"
"You're going to make me get up either way aren't you?"
"Of course I am. Come on" he said to me laughing as he stood up before flicking his wand, my hoodie and that disappearing before holding his hands out as I let out a huff before raising my hands as I was pulled to me feet
"Do you want a lift?"
"Yes please" I mumbled quietly as he grinned at me before letting me climb onto his back as I rested my head against his
"You're freezing"
"No I'm not"
"You are!"
"Shush" I mumbled after a pause as he continued laughing, getting closer to the house
