Coming Together || Nathan, Maddie and Amy
I don’t want to do this to Maddie, Nathan intoned inside his head, hoping Apollo would listen. “Shut up, you insignificant idiot. Haven’t you learned by now that what I want is what I get? And I want Madelina. This is the proper way to do it and I’m going to use your body to get what I want.” Apollo gripped Nathan’s phone in his hand, trying to decide the best way to go about texting Madelina. He wanted to see her, he’d wanted to simply show up like he’d done before, but this would take finessing. Lottie was, after all, not just Nathan’s child, but technically Apollo’s as well since he’d taken residence inside the man shortly after they’d been engaged. There was a teeny tiny part of him that felt a pull towards the little girl, but mostly he just cared about Madelina. He could see it now, they would be the perfect family.
TEXT: TO MADDIE: Hey...I know we haven’t talked in awhile, but I would really like to see Lottie. I’ve thought about it a lot, and she needs me to be part of her life. She needs her dad. Let’s talk this out, okay? Please.
There. That sounded perfectly pathetic enough to be Nathan, didn’t it? This was going to be way too easy. Madelina would never deny her child the chance to know her own father, after all. Apollo knew her too well to expect otherwise. She would gladly welcome him back into Lottie’s life, then back into hers, and he’d push Amy out...or maybe she’d have another accident while surfing, this time one that she couldn’t come back from? It would be easy, wouldn’t it? Though Nathan himself had no abiltiies, Apollo had gained quite a few over his long years of jumping in and out of bodies.
Now the ball was in Maddie’s court. This was going to be epic. His best plan yet. In the back of his mind, he could hear Nathan whimpering, pleading for him not to do this.
