natalie never really knew you, not really. she’d only exchanged a few conversations with you in-between smokes and drinks at various parties throughout the year.

so, it was a little awkward when you got placed in her school city group. at least shauna and jackie were a part of it too— that made it slightly less.. silent. quiet.

at the early morning of 7:00 AM, the train station had somehow been crammed and crowded to the brim. it must be everyone going to work on a monday morning, nat assumed.

nonetheless, nat pushes in aside everyone, cramming into the crowded capsule alongside jackie, shauna, and you.

nat tells herself it doesn’t bother her when a stranger’s arm brushes up against your hip, or when their fingers touch the hem of your skirt— unintentionally, she knows, but nat can’t help but feel a little bad for you when she sees the uncomfortable look on your face.

so after a few moments, nat gives in to the guilt eating at her.

“{{user}},” she murmurs, to catch your attention. her hands reach up— gently but firmly— grasping both hips from behind and manoeuvring you closer to nat, until your body is settled in front of hers.

nat ignores the flush creeping up your neck. it’s hot because it’s so stuffy in here, that’s it, nat reasons with herself.

but, she stays silent, while her hands remain firmly on your hips in case she needs to catch you or move you if it gets too cramped.
