I saw Nick drive up, and run to me. When he held me I felt so safe, I felt like everything was going to be okay. That just made me cry harder because I finally realized that I did have feelings for Nick. I loved Nick. It was a horrible reality, that just confused me more and more and more. Now what was I supposed to do?
***Nick’s Point of View***
“I swear I am gonna kick that guy’s ass. No one should make you feel like this. I’m so sorry Mandy, I knew this guy was such an asshole, I should have stopped you from going out with him. I should have known he would do something like this. I’m so sorry, this is my fault.”, I said, I could tell that I was going to cry. My feelings for Mandy had grown so much over the past month. And I think that I finally realized that I loved her, but I could never say anything to her about it. It would ruin everything.
“Nick, it’s not your fault, you know I wouldn’t have listened if you said anything about him. I would have just gotten mad at you. Can you please take me to the video shoot? I really wanna talk to Brian. Do you think he’ll be done taping?” Mandy asked, her tears beginning to stop.
“Probably not, but I’m sure he’ll stop for you”, I said while pulling out of the parking spot.
When we got there I pulled into the parking lot. For a few minutes we just sat there, and no one moved. I looked over at her and I wanted to kiss her so bad, but I couldn’t, we had such a good friendship that everything would be ruined. Why does life have to be so hard?
“I’m gonna go in there. Thank you so much for picking me up. You’re such a good friend to me Nick.”, Mandy said giving me a hug. She quickly ran into the video shoot.
“Damnit, I hate this!”, I screamed to no one particular as I walked into the video shoot.
“Hey Nick! What’s up with Mandy? She came running in here looking for Brian, and then ran right into his shoot, and started crying and then her and Brian went off somewhere.” AJ asked.
I ignored him and kept walking. I didn’t know where to, but I needed to think, and this wasn’t the place.
“Nick? Um..okay well, I’ll see you later, they’ll page you when it’s your turn to shoot”, AJ said looking really confused.
I turned around, and I didn’t care if AJ saw the tears running down my face, I threw my beeper at him.
“Do you need to talk to Brian or something Nick?”, AJ said, grabbing my arm.
I shook AJ off my arm and shook my head no. “I just need to think”, I said, running off to the ocean.
