NATHAN — POV
"I gotta go pee" She suddenly said standing up.
"OK, um..should I come with you?" I was already on my feet by the way.
"Are you a pervert? Of course not! I'll be right back."
"And you're sure you're not drunk?." I asked concerned.
"No Nathan! I'm perfectly fine"
"You're sure you don't want me to...."
"Nathan! I can handle myself." She cut me off and left before I could protest.
The damn restaurant became too quiet.
I sat there alone, staring at the empty seat across from me. I had earlier bought a diamond ring cause I was planning to propose, I guess I was rushing things like she said. She had a life of her own away from me. What was I thinking? Of course it was too early... but can you blame a man inlove? Minutes passed and she didn't come back yet—like she'd just gotten up to use the restroom and would come right back but she didn't.
