The next morning, Isabel groaned as a light was flipped on. "Turn it off.," She growled before covering her head with a pillow.
"I gotta pee damnit.," Nick grumbled trying to crawl from his bed.
"So go piss damnit and TURN OFF THE LIGHT!"
"Well, you're happy in the morning.," He huffed before shutting the bathroom door.
Isabel groaned and snuggled deeper into the covers, trying to keep warm. It had been long night, they had finally made it back to the hotel about 4 that morning. She peeked at the clock from beneath the pillow, it read 7:32 a.m. Her eyes closed again and she yawned, it was way too early and here Nick was already up. That was almost unheard of. The bathroom door opened, the light was flipped off and Isabel heard him lay down on her bed and throw an arm over her waist.
She groaned again, "Go to your own bed."
He smiled, "You're such a ray of sunshine."
"I know!"
He pulled her closer to him, "As much as I like laying here, we gotta get up."
"Why 'we'? Why don't you just get up and I'll go back to sleep?"
"No Isabel, come on, come with me."
"Where are you going? I'm not exactly awake right now.," She said rolling over to face him.
"We have some interviews and gotta make an appearance on TRL..pllleeasse come with me?"
She sighed, this was the last day she'd be with him for awhile. "Fine..I'll go...but do I have to get up now?"
"Yep..come on..," He said yanking the covers off the bed.
She jumped up as the cool air hit her legs, "Nick!"
He smiled and raised an eyebrow, "Wanna take a shower with me?"
She pitched a pillow at him, "No! But I get it first!," She said running to the bathroom.
"Isabel!"
"HaHa! Luckily, I put my clothes in here last night, woohoo!"
"Ugh!"
"Still love you Nicky!"
"Yeah yeah Isabel."
Isabel made sure her sunglasses were secure and Nick took her hand as they ventured outside to the waiting van. No matter how hard the guys tried, their fans ALWAYS found out where they were staying. Isabel wanted to cover her ears because of the sound of the girls squeals, shrieks, and yells, it was WAY too loud. Once inside the van, both of them relaxed as they waited for the others to come out. "What time's your flight?"
"11:35 tonight."
"So we'll have to be there about 10 or so, huh?"
She nodded and glanced at him, "Is that a problem?"
Nick shook his head, "Nope, just making sure."
"When will the tour be over?"
"We still got three months left."
"Oh."
"Yeah..."
The conversation ended there because AJ and Howie bounded inside followed by their security, and Brian and Kevin weren't far behind.
Isabel was inside the van at some tv studio in the parking garage with Jeff (security) and Ron (the driver) trying to catch a quick nap. The exhaustion on top of the busy schedule she was trying to keep was catching up with her and quickly. She leaned down further and curled into a ball the best she could trying to get comfortable and closed her eyes to the sleep that was overcoming her.
Nick was first back to the van and crawled in beside Isabel. She was still asleep as the others piled in as well. Nick moved her a little so she could rest her head on his shoulder and settled in for the ride to the MTV Studios. "Can she stay in here while we do TRL?," Nick asked Jeff.
He shook his head, "I don't think it'd be wise. Fans will find the van about five minutes after you all get inside, all security will be inside as will Ron, since he's basically security. I don't think she'd want to stay in here all by herself."
Nick nodded, "Okay."
At the studios, Brian, AJ, Kevin, and Howie filed out first followed by their security and went up to the studios. Nick nudged Isabel gently, "Hey, sweetie, come on, wake up."
Her eyes fluttered open, "Huh? What?"
"I know you were sleepin' good, huh?"
She nodded and yawned, "Yeah..where are we now?"
"We're at MTV, you've gotta come up with us. Everyone's going to be inside."
"Nicky..I just want to sleep.."
He brushed her hair back and smiled softly, "I know you do..so do I truthfully, but the fans'll find the van in about ten minutes or so and I know you don't wanna be stuck in here by yourself."
She nodded and sat up, "Okay, I'll go in."
He took her hand and helped her out to where Jeff was standing.
The rest of the day was spent at TRL and about five, they finally left the MTV Studios. They went to dinner and then back to the hotel to rest.
Nick sat on one of the beds watching Isabel pack her things up. "It was really nice having you here.."
"I had alot of fun Nick, and I'm not just talking about last night at the club. It was awesome just being here and being apart of your CRAZY life for a little bit."
He smiled, "I'm glad you didn't let that one girl get the best of you and ruin the whole thing."
She shrugged and sat down beside him, "It's okay..I just hope not all your fans are like that."
"They're not, trust me."
"I know most aren't but there are still that few that will always hate me because I'm with you."
"I know that too but we can't let them get to us."
She nodded, "Exactly."
"So..how about on Spring Break, you come to Florida and stay with me?"
"Okay.."
"Really?"
"Sure.."
"Okay, how about on Summer Break, we take a big vacation?"
She shrugged again and smiled, "Sounds good to me."
"How many years you got left?"
"Two. why?"
"No reason, just wondering."
"Oh, okay."
He smiled, "I don't really want you to go but I know you have to because you love school and love what you're doing."
"I don't really wanna go either..but I do have to go home and finish school, it's important to me Nicky."
"I know.."
"I know you know."
"I know you know that I know."
Isabel rolled her eyes, "You can be so weird sometimes."
"I know."
She laughed before standing up again to pack. "So..where will we go on this big vacation?," She asked.
Nick threw his arms out and laid back on the bed, "Anywhere you want to go."
"Italy?"
"Sure."
"France?"
"City Of Love? But, of course."
"Greece?"
He smiled as he felt the bed sink as she crawled back onto it, "Yep."
"Spain?"
"Si, si senorita."
She grinned as she sat on top of him, "Australia?"
"Umm..maybe..we'll have to see.."
"I wanna go to England too.."
"We'll go wherever you want to.."
She bit her lip, "Do you mean that Nicky?"
"Of course baby."
"No Kevin or anybody or press?"
"I can guarantee the Kevin or anybody but I can't the press..you know they'll find out somehow."
She nodded, "Okay..then it's a plan mister."
He smiled and opened his eyes to look up at her, "Are you happy Isabel?"
"Happy with what?"
"Your life, the way its going.."
She thought for a moment before nodding, "Yes I am."
"Are you happy with me?"
"Of course I am, I couldn't ask for a more perfect life."
"Do you think it could get any better?"
An evil grin crossed her face as she nodded. He raised an eyebrow and sat up the best he could,"How so?"
She leaned down to whisper, "Weeeelll..we could always get married Nickolas."
He grinned, "Maybe on one of those vacation spots I'll just ask you."
"Oh, really?"
"Uh huh"
She smiled, "You're serious!"
He laughed and rolled over so she fell off his stomach and leaned over her, "I plan someday Isabel for you and me to live happily ever after and be able to be the perfect fairy tale couple."
She smiled up at him, "I think it'll work out just right Nick."
"So do I.," He whispered before kissing Isabel.
