Isabella's P.O.V

I woke up, feeling uncomfortable with the pain that strikes my back due to the hard ground. I groaned. I should have accepted Nathan's offer to let me sleep on the bed and he, on the floor. But, we both knew that he needed the bed more than I do.

He told me that he didn't feel any pain through his back anymore but I could tell that he was lying because now and then, he would wince and I saw his body, automatically stiffen.

I felt bad when he told me he would try to be a good boyfriend to me, because truth was, we're not even together. I didn't know I was capable of lying, up this far. Where has the plan of bringing him back to his group mates and befriends with them, gone to? But, what else could I do? I had already lied to him. What would he think if I were to tell him the truth? Plus, it will confuses him even more if I were to start explaining that he was from a band of UK and blah blah blah.

I got up from the floor and started folding my 'blanket' when I realized the bed was empty. Where was Nathan? I threw the towel on the ground and fled to the bathroom. It was wide opened, which meant that Nathan couldn't be inside. Shit! Where could he be? Would he have run away, because he doubt that I was his girlfriend? I don't care if he didn't believed me, but he don't have to run away. He won't know the routes to the city and not many people in Indonesia may understand his accents.

I opened up the main door, and it was...raining? No wonder it was cold. Wait, what? Raining? Where could Nathan have gone to, especially in the heavy rain. Or he had possibly, woke up way much earlier than I had, and had tried his luck to get away from this.

"Looking for me?" A voice startled me. I turned around, to the left side of the door.

"Nath!" I squealed in relieved. He hadn't run away, and he was soaking wet. "Where had you gone to?"

"I got this," he answered, and showed me what he had in his arms. It was a light brown cat.

"A cat?" I furrowed my eyebrows.

"Yeah. I heard the meow sound when I was sleeping and it was really loud. So I came out of the cabin and tried to locate where the sound came from and I found her. She must have lost her way here in the woods," Nathan explained, "Do you think we should keep her?"

"Whatever, come get inside. It's raining heavily," I responded and pulled him in. He nodded and I took the cat from his arms, and placed it near the bathroom before tossing him a towel. He took off his shirt and I blushed a little at the sight of his beautiful abs. Shit! *Fan-Girl Mode On*

"You're blushing!" Nathan exclaimed excitedly. Shit! I was caught.

"I'm not!" I argued.

"Liar," Nathan teased as he dried his hair.

"Whatever. How did you know that the cat is a female?" I asked, trying to stall away from the blushing topic. That was embarrassing!

"I don't know? I just did," he stated, "By any chance, do I have any pet cats before I...forgot everything?"

As far as I know, his favorite animal are cats. I also know that he had several pet cats at home. Therefore, I answered him, "Yeah, you love cats."

"Ah, that explains."

"So what should we do, now? It's raining and I see nothing much we can do," Nathan stated soon after he had changed into a pair of fresh new clothes.

I looked around, trying to find something interesting to do, when my eyes caught the cat that Nathan has brought, playing with the water in the bathroom. I smirked, already know what we should do. "What about we shower the cat? She's a little dirty, from what I see," I suggested.

Nathan answered with a smirk and within minutes, both of us were soaked and laughing our ass out. The bathroom was way too small and we had managed to fit our butts in and tried to shower the cat (and tried soaking each other). After what seemed like hours, we finished showering the cat and changed to another pair of fresh clothes.

Once done, I took out all of the fruits in the only basket I had and stuffed it with my thickest sweater before settling the cat in it. It wasn't too small nor too big for her to feel comfortable there.

Nathan's P.O.V

I watched as Bella empty the basket of fruits and wondered what was she actually doing. She then took out a....sweater and stuffed in the basket before placing the cat on top of it. I gasped at that. She sacrificed her bed for me, and now she was sacrificing her basket and sweater for the cat that I had picked.

With her back facing me, I could tell she was working on preparing some food. Minutes later, she turned around and placed a bowl that she always used for her cereal, in front of the cat and passed me, my bowl. Yeah, we only have 2 bowls - from what I observed. I looked at the filling of the bowl. It was honey stars with chocolate milk. We didn't have to have cereals for only breakfast. We had it for almost breakfast, lunch and sometimes dinner. Sometimes I felt sick but I don't think telling her would be a good idea. I would sound like complaining and she has done all the good things to make me feel comfortable.

"How about you?" I asked, referring to the cereal of bowl that I have and she don't.

"I'll have mine, later. The cat looks really starving," she explained and I looked at her in awe. She always made everyone else comes first before her.

"I think we can share," I told her and she immediately shook her head. "Why?" I inquired.

"It's okay. I'll have them once you're done," she replied and I argued no more.

We spend the day, basically doing nothing but talking about some past and how should we take care of the cat. I had decided on the name Bethan and had explained to Bella that it was the combination of our name. Bella + Nathan. I don't know why but I saw her face changed to pale when I mentioned that.

I haven't really loved her but I know that I liked her a lot. Her attitude and character especially. And the way she took care of me, always considering myself a priority, somehow had managed me to almost love her. I knew it wasn't love but I could feel that the love was coming. I can't wait to be able to love her. I felt guilty for not remembering anything and had made her feel that she wasn't loved by me.

I watched as she folded more clothes to be use as a pillow and reached for the towel of her blanket. I sighed. I should try my luck in getting ourselves swap sleeping places.

"You should sleep on the bed," I told her firmly.

"Nah, I'm good," she replied.

"I insist!"

"I don't want," she argued and I had only realized how stubborn she was.

"Bella...." I called, softly. She shook her head vigorously while covering both of her ears. She then lay down on the carpeted ground with her hands still covering her ears. She lay to her sides, with her back facing me. Why must she be so stubborn? Wouldn't her back hurt too, if she keeps sleeping on the hard ground?

I groaned and knelt down next to her. Then I slipped one hand under her neck and thighs before lifting her up and settled her on the bed. Sideways, I lay down on the bed too and my arms automatically went to her stomach and nuzzled her hair.

"Nath....Nathan, what are you doing?" she asked me, quietly.

"Trying to sleep," I answered, plainly.

"No. I meant, why are we on the bed?" she asked again, emphasizing on we.

"Why can't we be on the bed? You're my girlfriend," I stated.

"Err...err, we will feel uncomfortable. This bad is too small," she tried again and I knew she was just trying to find excuses to not sleep on the bed, so I just kept quiet to pretend that I was asleep and soon after that, I heard her light snore.

She was asleep. In my arms. And it felt good, like she was meant to be here. Maybe I need to start spending and have a lovey-dovey times with her to get my feeling for her back. If I had liked her, then no doubt that I'm close to loving her.
