"Nick?" Emily asked. Nick smiled. "What are you doing here?"
"I had to talk to you" Nick replied. Emily looked away from him.
"Listen...I don't want any trouble...If you wanna sue me or something....I deserve it" Emily replied. Nick moved towards her, she stepped away.
"I not here to yell at you, I just wanna talk" Nick replied. She sat down in the same booth they were at only weeks before, he sat down across from her. He looked different for some reason, as if something was troubling him.
"About what?" Emily asked. He slid his hand across the table and held hers.
"Us" Nick replied. Emily looked up at him.
"Nick there is no US...There was no US. It was always you and someone you thought was your girlfriend" Emily replied.
"No...It was me with someone I loved" Nick replied, squeezing her hand. She pulled her hand away.
"Who put you up to this?" Emily asked.
"Tiff...." Nick started.
"Emily....My name's Emily" Emily yelled. Nick stopped talking.
"It was wrong of me to come here" Nick replied. "I thought....You know what...It doesnt matter what I thought I was wrong"
Emily watched Nick get up and start to leave. She bit her lip and sighed.
"Nick sit down and say what you wanted to say" Emily exclaimed.
"No...It's obvious you don't feel the same way I do" Nick replied.
"What do you mean?" She asked.
"As you know, Tiffany and I had a terrible relationship. After Sept. 11th, I fell in love with her again, there was something different about her. She was exactly what I wanted and the person I had fallen for in the first place. Until a week ago, I thought it was because maybe she realized how special our relationship was and that she was in love with me too. Then, you tell me about how your not Tiff and that Tiff's actually........you know...and I realized it wasn't her I loved, It was you" Nick explained. Emily felt tears coming to her eyes.
"Nick...I can't....I mean...Seeing how close I resemble your dead girlfriend...It's going to be akward for us. And how exactly are you going to explain it to everyone else? Oh...see....She pretended to be my dead girlfriend! yeah...That will fly with the fans and the media" Emily argued. Nick took out a pen and drew to columns on a napkin. He put a + sign on the top of one and a - on the other side. "What are you doing?"
"I'm making a pros and cons chart" Nick replied. Emily looked confused as she sat across from him. Nick scribbled some things under the minus sign.
"Ok...Cons of us staying together: The fans think your a freak, The Media has a field day with our relationship, You don't get to spend time with your friend and family that much because your in exotic locations spending time with me" Nick exclaimed.
"Is the last one a CON?" Emily asked. Nick shrugged as he wrote down some more stuff.
"PROS of us staying together: You spend time with me, The guys love you, my family loves you, my friends love you, we love spending time with eachother, I get outta my depressive state of mind, I don't sue you for impersonating my girlfriend, you don't have to work in this place anymore, You get to travel all over the world spending time with a guy you love" Nick exclaimed.
"Are you sure the last one's true?" Emily asked. Nick smirked.
"It better be or I'm wasting my time here" Nick replied. He slid the napkin to her so she could see it.
"Too bad your handwriting sucks and I can't read this" Emily joked. Nick stared at her.
"You get the point that the Pros out number the Cons" Nick replied with a grin. Emily crumpled the napkin up and got out of the booth.
"I think you should leave" Emily muttered. Nick didn't say anything. He thought that she would've for sure said yes to him.
"Yeh, Ok" He replied. He walked out side and got on his boat. He waited a few minutes to leave, hoping she'd run out and stop him, but she didn't. Nick sighed and started to motor as he pulled away from the dock.
Kim stared at the napkin in her hand, staring at Emily.
"He came here and you let him go?" She asked. Emily nodded. "Are you a fucking idiot?"
"KIM!" Emily's mom yelled. Kim rolled her eyes.
"It's just....He loves you and you love him. But for some reason, YOU insist on giving him a hard time when YOURE the one that should be happy he actually still wants you" Kim explained.
"I know Kim...It's just...I look like Tiffany, I talk like Tiffany and to the world I am Tiffany. How am I going to get over that? When he looks at me he'll see her and when all the fans see me...They'll see her" Emily exclaimed. Kim smirked.
"That's your ONLY problem with getting back with him?" Kim asked. Emily nodded. Kim smirked.
"It seems we gotta make a stop at that real Posh hair styling joint before we go to the Carter's place" Kim exclaimed. Emily stared at her.
"No" She replied.
"So we're just going to go see Nick then?" Kim asked.
"No Kim...I'm staying here....End of story" Emily replied.
"No Emily...I'm not letting you fuck up your life. This guy loves you, he's loaded and he has a nice ass. You can't get better then that" Kim exclaimed. Grabbing Emily's arm. Emily looked at her mom for help, but her mom just smiled and waved goodbye to the girls.
"Your a natural brunette correct?" The hairstylist questioned.
"Yeh" Emily replied.
"You shouldn't wear your hair like this...You should wear it shorter, above the shoulder, It'll bring out your face more" She exclaimed. Emily shrugged. The hairstylist pumped the chair up to her height and she started to snip away at Emily's hair.
"AHHHH!" Kim screamed. Emily touched her hair.
"I dunno girl" Emily replied. "I still look like her"
"Oh shut up....You look great! Best 80 dollars I ever spent!" Kim exclaimed.
"80 bucks?" Emily asked.
"Oh don't worry when you get with Carter you can pay me back. You look so good brunette" Kim exclaimed. "Now get in the car....We have a drive ahead of us"
"GET OUT!" Kim screamed. Kim and Emily sat in Kim's Geo Metro outside the Carter estate. The gates kept the girls out.
"No" Emily protested.
"I don't know what to do! I've done all I could girl, You have to go in there and get your man" Kim exclaimed. Emily crossed her arms and looked away from her. Kim laughed.
"You wanna play hardball?" She asked. Kim got out of the car and walked to the buzzer.
"What are you doing?" Emily yelled.
"Who is it?" AJ asked dryly.
"Emily for Nick" She replied. Emily got out of the car and ran towards Kim. AJ buzzed them in and Kim walked back to the Car.
"NO! What are you doing?" Emily yelled. Kim got in the car and waited for Emily. Emily walked over and got in. Kim pulled into the estate and drove up to the door.
"This is where I leave you girl" Kim exclaimed. Emily bit her lip.
"You know Kim...You're my best friend...And though I never show appreciation I don't know what I would do without you" Emily exclaimed. Kim gave her a hug and kissed her cheek. Emily got out of the car and walked towards the door. Before she got up to it, It opened up, Nick stood there, in his swim trunks.
"Hey" Emily exclaimed.
