Immaculate Spirit 17 :

"By the way, what's up with the name of his party? Who came back from coma?" Asked Taylor curious after a pause in the conversation.

"I'am."

"You? What happen to you to gone on a coma and how long were you in it?"

"I got hit by a car on the road because of a drunk driver. I was 4 years in a coma give or take." Said Nathaniel in a flat tone.

"That's horrible! Wait, what? How old were you at the times?" She ask surprise.

"Twelve." He answer.

"Oh my G.o.d, that's terrible." She said in appalled tone which turn in disbelief a second later." But… that mean that you are at most sixteen!"

"Well yes, i am." He said, still in a flat tone. He was starting to fear that this reaction would became an occurrence. 'Maybe i should not had worked out that much." He regret in his mind.

"I don't believe you! Show me your ID!" Said Taylor in a stern tone which Nathaniel obliged. Looking at it, Taylor could not help to shake her head.

"This unbelievable. h.e.l.l, you look like you are twenty! And you are more mature and composed that all my ex and one of them was near thirty! Maybe this is a fake ID." She grumble which make Nathaniel laugh.

Spying his moms on the corner of his eyes, he start walking toward them, Taylor beside him, not realising that she was still gripping his ID in her hand. Coming out of it and seeing the woman in front of her, she smile politely.

"Mary, nice to meet you here." Said Taylor in a courteous tone.

"Hi Taylor how are you doing? Can i present you my wife, Karine?"

The women's then start introducing each other and exchanging handshake and compliment on their clothes. Mary and Taylor being both on the music industry they known each other quite well. Mary even tried to rope taylor in the Lyndon label once which she denied. She was quite happy where she was at the moment and didn't want to change. Redirecting the conversation, Mary said.

"I don't believe you need to be introduce to our son." She said with amus.e.m.e.nt looking at Nathaniel.

Taylor blanked for a moment before realising what Mary said. Turning on the side, she saw Nathaniel giving her a nod with his little smile. She was going to rebuke him for not saying anything when she remember that she was holding his ID. Looking at it, she could clearly read "Nathaniel Lyndon" on it. Giving him his ID back, she could not help to shake her head.

"Well well, look at you mister mysterious. Do you have more surprise for me?"

"I could say that i don't but the night is still young. I could perhaps surprise you again." He said with a bright smile which cause her heart to flutter. "Okay keep it together Taylor, is a minor for Christ sake" She thought furiously.

"So he's really sixteen?" Said Taylor.

"Yes, i can vouch for him, i was very much there when he was born" Karine answer with a laugh.

"We have cute and very much embarra.s.sing picture of him when he was younger if you need additional proof." Add Mary, laughing too.

"I would like that" Said Taylor enjoying the look on Nathaniel face.

"Mom, when i was talking with granny, she show me some adorable picture of you when you were a teen. You seems to have a phase where you wore only bandana and purple sportswear pants in that time…" Said Nathaniel with an eyebrow raise, hiding his amus.e.m.e.nt seeing the smug smile on his mom face turning to horror.

"Sweetie, i was only joking you know that right?" She said with puppy eyes, triggering round of laughter from her wife, son and Taylor who was watching the cute scene with interest.

Talking for a while longer and hearing Taylor and his mom talking about music, Nathaniel suddenly got and idea and interrompt the conversation.

"Taylor, could i borrow your musical talent for a few minutes?" Ask Nathaniel, surprising the women's around him.
