Ok to sum it up. He wanted to make his father happy by being pro soccer player. And when opportunity appear, he quitted soccer because he wanted "to protect" Nathan. While Nathan himself capable to protect himself and come from family who able to protect him as well. Just see how Nathan can just transfer school without being blamed for beating guys. His brother is a lawyer. And MC decision probably what made his father left. He doesn't deserve to be sad or mourning. He should have tell Nathan that he was coerced to date Ian, and that David use Nathan's photo to blackmail him. Nathan is not damsel in distress. Alex is projecting on Nathan as if Nathan is weak and couldn't do anything without him.
