Will You Keep The Secret

Rome grinned at her and chuckled lightly. "Well Jessie if you must know I just turned twenty-one."


"Uh...lets just say I've done some stuff I'm not exactly proud of."

((How far have you seen in American Horror story?))

(( I've got to the end of Season 1 now ))

---

"I'm twenty," Jessica replied with a small grin.

---

"Tell me…. I doubt they can be that bad, not really."

((Oh good then you know what Tate is?))

He smirked at that.


"Uh it might be."

(( Ghost, yes ... I hope I got that right :L He's also a pychopath haha ))

Aleshia frowned deeply and shook her head a little bit in the negative, grabbing his wrist gently and leading him somewhere more private, "I'm sure if it was really bad you'd be in jail right now, Nate.. Come on, tell me? You seem to be itching to get it off of your chest."

---

"You a local? You been living in the area long or..?"

((Yup he's a pyshopathic ghost...hehe))

Clenching his jaw he leaned against the wall behind him eyeing her over. "Another time. And certainly not here."


"Ah I've been here a couple of months. How about you?"

Aleshia turned to face him once again, raising an eyebrow in question before asking, "After school tonight? Where ever you want... you can decide the place, I guess."

---

"All my life." She laughed, "I thought that would explain why I didn't see you around, what brought you here?"

Nathaniel inhaled sharply. "You're serious? You really wanna know what I've done?"


"Just needed a change of pace I guess" he shrugged his shoulders.

"I want to know why you think you're so awful when you're the first person that has been truly kind to me for months." Aleshia confirmed with a small nod, glancing up at him.

---

"Where did you live before? What was it like?"

"Lived down in the city it was loud and dirty."


He wrinkled his nose.

"If you don't want to, that's fine of course... I-If it was just a... you know... one off and you never want o be seen with me or anything like that then it's okay, I'll leave you be... I guess." Aleshia whispered with a grimace, playing with her hair nervously.

---

Jessica just nodded a bit at that, "Ah, so you're bringing your noise here?" she asked with a quiet laugh before asking, "What about family, you got any or is it just you here?"

((Slow I'm at the park with Mick and Vader))

Nathaniel sighed deeply. "It's not like that. There's just some stuff I'd rather people not know."


"Right now, just me."

"Yeah, yeah whatever.." She muttered, shaking her head and going to walk off. Lowering her head to watch the ground with a small flinch.

---

"Where are they?"

He clenched his jaw grabbing hold of her wrist to stop her. "Come on don't be like this..."


"Back home."

"Like what? I'm not being like anything.." Aleshia whispered quietly, "This was a mistake, you being nice... no one ever wants to be my friend, open up to me so I'm not going to just stand here like a fool."

---

"Which is...?"

"Because I won't tell you one thing? Maybe there's a reason I can't tell you."


"New York."

"Oh, fancy," Jessica laughed, taking a step back away from the motorcycle when she had finished what she was doing with it, "Now try it? It should work..."

---

"I don't need your excuses." She mumbled.

"Fancy?" He shook his head laughing. "Not where I came from." He got up wiping his hands on his jeans and sat on the seat starting it up with a grin when the engine roared instantly.


"Fine whatever" he muttered turning and walking the other way.

Jessica lifted her hand up to push her sunglasses back over her eyes with a smirk, "I told you I was good with motors, didn't I? She should work like a dream now..."

---

Aleshia walked silently then.

"Thanks. Where'd you learn about this stuff?"


Nathaniel ended up just leaving the building as the next bell rang.

"My dad used to own a garage, I grew up around it - I used to wander out and watch him work with everything, fix 'em all up."

"That's awesome, not many girls know about this stuff"

Jessica just shrugged nonchalantly, "Not many guys build their own motorbike from scratch." she replied, glancing over and offering him a small smirk.

Rome grinned running a hand through his hair. "Yeah well my dad and I started it years ago, I continued when he died."

Jessica moved her gaze over to him, studying him in complete and utter silence.

Rome didn't even notice how she was looking at him his attention on past memories.
