Part III Chapter 57


When they arrived at the house, Win went inside and up to their room immediately and waited for AJ. He came up quickly and closed the door behind him. He went to her, trying to give her a hug but she stepped away.

“Sit down, we need to talk first.” She said very business like. He sat on the bed and she pulled a chair in front of him and sat.

“There are going to be some rules. First off, you now have a daughter that you have to take care of. And her mother happens to be the woman you also kissed, while you were supposed to be involved with me. Because of Latecia, I agree that the best thing for her is to live here with her father, I would not ask you to choose between me and your daughter. However, I will ask you to choose between me and Edith. Either you can be close with her, or me. You want me, you have to start telling me about your life.” AJ nodded in agreement.

“Second rule. We will go back to dating. I will not be living here so I expect you to be the doting boyfriend. You will ask me out, you will make phone calls, you will pick me up, take me out, and drop me back off home. I will stay with Howie and Nick.” AJ nodded again.

“Third, there will be no touching, no kissing, no sex, period until I feel I can trust you, which may be a long time away.” Again AJ nodded.

“And fourth, we can see other people.” Win said, but this time AJ didn’t nod.

“What, you want to go out with other guys?” he asked abashed.

“AJ, I want to see what else is out there. I think it’s a reasonable request. This way you can decide if you want to be with me or Edith, and you can have time to do it.”

“And you can decide whether or not you want to be with me! Win, this is a no brainer, I want to be with you!”

“You do not want to be with me otherwise you wouldn’t have feelings for Edith, which is evident since you kissed her. AJ, if this doesn’t work out, I want options. I think we rushed into this way too fast. This way it can be casual.”

“No way Win, absolutely not. I will not agree with you going out with other guys.” AJ said standing up.

“That’s too bad, because you don’t have a choice. I’m going to get the rest of my things, then I’m going to ask Nick if he’ll come pick me up.” Win said standing up and going to the closet.

“Win, I don’t want to do this. Why can’t we just try this again. I know I screwed up.” AJ said coming over to the closet.

“AJ, you can’t trust me, I cannot trust you. What kind of relationship do you think that is?”

“One that needs us to be together to figure it out! Win, please don’t go!”

“I will not change my mind. If you don’t mind I’d like to pack my things alone.” Win replied with a resolute face. AJ stood there defeated.

“Okay, fine, I’ll leave you alone.” He left the room and slammed the door behind him.

After Win packed her things she called Nick and he agreed to pick her up. Twenty minutes later he had pulled up in the driveway and knocked on the door. Edith let him in and he ignored her on his way to see Win.

“Hey, there you are, can you help me with this bag?” Win asked when she saw Nick.

“So you’re really going through with it?” Nick asked picking up the bag she indicated.

“Yeah, I am. I told him he needs to be the perfect boyfriend before I think about coming back here. And we agreed to see other people. Actually, I said we were going to see other people and he didn’t like it.” Win replied.

“You’re really gonna let him see other people?” Nick asked as they walked down the stairs.

“Yeah, I am. That way he can figure out what he wants, and I can figure out what I want.” Win replied opening the front door. AJ emerged out of the kitchen and watched her.

“Win, I’m begging you, please don’t go!” he asked in a pleading tone.

“AJ, you’re just going to have to come to terms with what you’ve done. You’ve no one to blame but yourself. I was not the one who kissed someone else. Good bye, call me if you want to, but there is no pressure to.” Win strode out the door to Nick’s car and disappeared from sight. Nick stood in the door watching AJ.

“You lay one finger on her, and I’ll kill you.” AJ said focusing his steely gaze on Nick.

“It’s not me you have to worry about. Temptation’s kind of hard to resist when it lives in the backyard, isn’t it?” Nick asked.

“Just because she says we can see other people, doesn’t mean I’m okay with it. So you stay away from her.” AJ replied, clenching his bruised fist.

“AJ, I am warning you, you hurt that girl one more time, and I will personally see to it that you never do it again.” Nick said with narrowed eyes.

“You’re threatening me?”

“You sure as hell believe it. I stood by and watched you ruin Catherine’s life, cause one she was an awful person and two, I didn’t think I could stand up to you. But this time I’ve had enough, and Win does not deserve to be treated this way. So you just keep massaging your knuckles, cause if you want to come after me, I won’t back down this time.” Nick walked out slamming the door behind him.

Win was waiting in the passenger seat when Nick returned to his car and put her bag in the back seat. He got in, started the car and pulled out, AJ in the window watching them all the while.

“So what do you have planned for tonight? It seems like you and Howie live the swinging singles lifestyle.” Win asked with a laugh.

“Oh, last night,” Nick chuckled, “Yeah once in a while we invite our friends from around here and have a little party.”

“Too bad you had to clear it out for me.” Win said.

“Don’t worry about it, you were a worthy cause to break up a party.” Nick smiled.

“Thank you.”

“No problem.”

“So is Howie’s girlfriend coming to stay with him?”

“Oh, Rene, from Reno, ha ha, yes, she is coming for a week and a half I believe, on next Wednesday. She’s an okay person, a little whiny though, Howie tends to go for that type of girl.”

“I didn’t think they were his type.”

“Neither did I.” Nick replied laughing.

“So what about you, any girlfriend I should be aware of?” Win asked.

“Me? Oh, no. I haven’t had a date, in a long time. Too busy.” Nick replied hastily.

“Please. How can you not have time? That um, what’s her name, Ally, the new stage woman, she likes you, and I know you like her.” Win replied.

“She’s not my type.” Nick replied.

“What do you mean she’s not your type? She’s tall, blond, and has big boobs, I thought that was every guy’s type.” Nick burst out laughing.

“That’s definitely not my type.” Nick replied.

“What about that girl a while back, that hotel heiress, what the hell is her name?” Win asked trying to remember her name.

“Paris Hilton. Yeah, that’s a trip I wouldn’t want to take again, you want to talk about whiny.” Win laughed.

“So what is your type then?”

“Um, she has to be some one who can hold her own, independent like, but willing to take help when she needs it. She has to have a sense of humor, be outdoorsy, and wants to have fun.” Nick said uneasily.

“That’s it? She doesn’t have to be a certain height, hair color or anything?” Win asked laughing.

“No, we’re long past that phase. I just want someone who will care about me, just for me, not the money. A person I can take home to my family and know she’ll be happy to go.”

“So in other words you want a normal person?” Win asked.

“I guess you could say that.”

“So that’s really your type? Hum, I’m sure Ally would fit in there somewhere,” Win replied thoughtfully.

“Honestly? I’m looking for a girl, like you.” Nick said nervously.

“Like me? Really?” Win asked surprised.

“I’m gonna be honest, I’ve always regretted not asking you out before AJ did. It goes to show, the forward one gets the girl.” Nick said sheepishly.

“Well, he doesn’t have me now, and I can see other people,” Win said looking at him.

“Yeah but,” Nick started.

“What? Nick, if you want to ask me out, do it now, otherwise, knowing you, the little bit that I do, you won’t get your nerve again.” AJ’s warning echoed in his head. But he liked Win, and she was offering him a chance to get to know her better.

He reasoned with himself. Either he could turn down this opportunity with a girl he really liked, always liked since he met her, and had stolen right out from under his nose because he hadn’t acted first.

Then again this was his friend’s girlfriend and he had told him specifically no to make a move on her. But Nick wasn’t the one who hurt her.

“Nick, hello, are you awake?” Win asked.

“Huh, oh, I was just thinking is all.”

“You looked a little dazed and confused.”

“Yeah, well, I made a decision.”

“As to what?” Win asked, not really sure what he was talking about.

“Well, I was just kind of wondering, maybe you’d like to have lunch with me on Friday? I mean if you’re not busy or anything.” Nick said rubbing the back of his neck.

“What? Oh, sure, of course.” Win said smiling.

“Cool.” Nick said blushing. He was unable to keep a large smile from spreading across his face.


Part III Chapter 58

That evening Win unpacked her things in the guestroom upstairs. Nick hadn’t stopped smiling since he got home.

“What’s that look on your face?” Howie asked suspiciously when Nick wandered into the living room.

“Nothing.” Nick replied unconvincingly. Howie gave him another look and said,

“What happened at AJ’s?”

“She told him they needed time apart, and that she thought they should see other people. He tried to get her to stay, but she wouldn’t.” Nick replied sitting down on the couch.

“You didn’t do what I think you did, did you?” Howie asked sitting up.

“Didn’t do what?”

“Oh man! You know he will kill you! Why are you going to make this more complicated!” Howie said throwing his arms over his head.

“Howie, in case you didn’t realize, it’s already complicated. AJ’s screwing around on her and she doesn’t want to give him up. Maybe being with me, she’ll see what she deserves.”

“It’s none of your business what goes on between them!” Howie said annoyed.

“When she shows up on my doorstep at two in the morning, crying, it certainly is my business. It’s also my business because she is my friend and I care about her.”

“So do I, but you’ve got to know when to step back and let her make her own decisions.”

“Excuse me, but I think I made my decision very clear. And Nick is right. The second I showed up here on his doorstep, and invited him into the problem, it became his business, and I understand that. But I don’t remember asking you for your opinion on anything, and you did not offer any condolences. So stay out of it.” Win said angrily. Howie put his hands up in defeat and walked away.

“I’m not in it.” He said on his way out.

“So, what do you want to do tonight?” Win asked with a smile.

“You want to go for a walk?” Nick asked.

“Sure, that’d be nice.” Win replied as the phone rang in the other room. Howie picked it up.

“Win, it’s AJ!” Howie called coming into the living room.

“What, already?” Win said shaking her head as she took the phone.

“Hello?” she said walking out to the kitchen for some privacy.

“Win, hey baby, I miss you. When are you coming back?” AJ asked.

“AJ, you already know that.”

“But Win, I’m no good alone. I need you back here with me.”

“I am not going to come back AJ, not until I can trust you.”

“I need you Win, my heart hurts so much without you.”

“Don’t start that lovey dovey crap AJ, it’s not going to work! Now you made a mess, now clean it up! I’m not going to pretend that I’m okay with this! You kissed another woman! I should have just moved on and forgotten you, I’m giving you a chance that you don’t deserve! And considering the fact that the woman you kissed lives in your backyard, along with your daughter, I am being very generous.”

“There is nothing between us, I swear. I was just weak, I didn’t want it to happen.” AJ pleaded.

“AJ, go take care of your daughter, she needs her father now.” Win said coldly.

“Well at least let me ask you out, like I’m supposed to.”

“All right.”

“Well, would you go out with me on Friday?”

“Sorry, I’ve already got plans.”

“Already? Who are you going out with?” AJ asked annoyed.

“None of your business.”

“Win, I want to know who you are going out with, I have a right to know!”

“You lost that right when you kissed someone else.”

“I deserve to know who is stealing my girlfriend away from me!”

“No, you don’t, now do you want to ask me out or not?”

“Just tell me!”

“Nope, and if your finished yelling at me, I’m hanging up.”

“Wait! I’m sorry baby, I’m just so, angry, with myself. You’re right, you’re right, I brought this on myself, I deserve it. You think I could take you to a movie on Saturday night?” AJ asked with a simper.

“All right.” Win replied.

“Okay, I’ll pick you up at seven?” he asked.

“Sure, I’ll be ready. Goodbye AJ.” Win replied.

“I love you beautiful.” Win hung up the phone before saying anything else.

“So what on earth could you possibly see in me, to agree to go out with me?” Nick asked as they walked along the beach.

“I’m going to be honest with you, I liked you too when I met you, but AJ made the first move. What I like about you though, is that you are shy. You don’t just throw yourself up front. AJ is harsher, sometimes too forward.”

“Do you think you two will end up back together?” Nick asked.

“I don’t know. I just know that I need to see what it’s like without him. We got really serious, really fast. We didn’t get a chance to be friends first.”

“It’s usually better to be friends first.”

“Mm. Nick, I know this isn’t fair to you. And I just want to make it perfectly clear. I’m not breaking it off with AJ, not yet. And I’m going to be seeing him. If you don’t want to be in this, you just let me know, at any time. I’m not going to be stupid and think that I’m going to have it all.”

“Win, I know you are going to see AJ, and I know you want this to be casual, but I like you, and I want a chance to get to know you better. Even if we are nothing more than friends, I’ll be happy with that. I won’t be ecstatic but I’ll be happy.” Nick replied.

“You are such a sweet heart Nick. You really are.” Win replied smiling.

“Thank you. But Win, I mean it, even if nothing becomes of this, I’m going to be happy that I got to spend more time with you. It’s not your fault that this happened.”

“Nick, I’m going to tell you something else, but you have to swear you won’t tell anyone.”

“I swear.”

“Once I stop trusting a person, I usually don’t trust them again. I have my doubts about going back with AJ at all. I never thought he could lie to me like that.”

“What do you mean he lied to you?”

“The other day, he promised me he would never hurt me, he’d always protect me. And then, well, you know what happened. He even gave me his ring.” Win said showing Nick the ring.

“Doesn’t look like either of you have much serenity now.” Nick replied.

“I know.”

“If you don’t trust him, why are you giving him another chance? If you don’t mind me asking.” He added quickly.

“I love him. I really do. I don’t know if I can just walk away yet. I have to at least try, for a little while. After that, I’ll know whether I can forgive him. But not until I try it.” Nick nodded.

“If it’s any consolation I don’t think he intended to hurt you.” Nick replied.

“Intentions don’t mean a whole hell of a lot to me anymore.” Win replied stopping and looking out at the ocean.

“They used to.” Nick said looking at her.

“That was before. What matters to me now is what actually happens. He may not have wanted to kiss her, but he did. He may not have wanted to hurt me, but he did.” She continued to stare out at the water and felt her heart starting to break.

“I thought, I finally thought that after all the shit I’d been through I’d finally found someone that cares enough about me. God, I wonder sometimes, if I’ll ever find out why this all happened.” Win said wiping away her tears.

“Why was I thrown away, why was I raped, why was I out on the streets?” Win said.

“You were raped?” Nick asked.

“Yeah, when I was eighteen. I thought I finally found someone who understood, who wouldn’t hurt me. God, I was so stupid.” Win said kicking a divot in the sand.

“You are not stupid Win. You did not know he was going to do this to you. And you couldn’t have known either.” Nick put his arms around her and pulled him to his chest letting her cry it out.


Part III Chapter 59


The rest of the song was recorded without trouble. Between the guys schedule of concerts and appearances it took two weeks to record the entire song and edit it.

Win’s lunch with Nick was uneventful except for the fact that she stopped worrying about AJ. She enjoyed herself immensely, it was great talking with Nick, about something besides AJ and the tour.

Her date with AJ was a different story entirely. AJ showed up early, picked a fight with Nick, yelled at Howie for no reason at all, and ended up in another fight with Win. By the time he had convinced her to go out with him, they had missed the movie and she was in no mood to talk to him. Finally she agreed to go out to coffee with him. But that was a bad idea as any. He tried to hold her hand in the coffee shop and made a scene in front of a crowd when she pulled her hand away.

When she got back to the house, she got out of the car before it had fully stopped and went directly inside.

Over the two weeks it took to record the song, Nick and Win went out on seven, official dates. He was always so sweet to her, always listening, but also always talking to her. It was nice getting to hear so much about him, his life, his family. He never even so much as pretended to accidentally brush his arm against hers, or try to hold her hand.

Once, when they were out for dinner, his foot bumped up against hers. Immediately he pulled it back, apologizing and blushing profusely.

Dating AJ turned out to be a lot harder than just being with him. When he wasn’t begging her to come back to him, he was making rude comments about the other guy she was dating. She was getting fed up with him very fast. He still wouldn’t open up to her at all and his recent bitterness was annoying. She was glad at the end of the two weeks when he told her that he had asked out another girl he had met a few days ago. She was pretty sure it was just to make her jealous, despite the fact that she didn’t feel anything but happy and relieved that AJ had finally taken to heart one of the things she had said.

In reality Win doubted her decision to try it again with him. She was looking for a way to move away from him, slowly, gently, without hurting his feelings or his pride. She thought her efforts with him were fruitless. She felt like he was closing up even more.

AJ wanted to be with Win but he couldn’t get himself to talk to her. It was a constant fight between opening up and closing down. He wanted to talk to her and get her to trust him again. He knew he had hurt her, but he resented her for putting a limit on their relationship and wanting him to bring up all those painful memories again. If she really loved him she wouldn’t want to make him relive that again.

On the last week of their Miami visit, Brian invited everyone to his and Brianna’s house for dinner in honor of completing the song. Because they lived so far away, AJ offered to drive Win so that he could have a chance to be alone with her. But she had already agreed to ride with Nick, Howie, and his girlfriend Rene that was staying with them. When Win said she wouldn’t go with him, he said he would invite his new girl to the party instead.

News that Win and Nick were dating had gone no farther than Howie. No one had told Kevin and Brian, although both were aware Win had been dating someone else. They however had avoided bringing the subject up to Win, because they agreed that it was none of their business. And considering the mood AJ was in, it was a better idea not to discuss what was going on. AJ didn’t know for a fact that Nick had been dating Win, but he had an inkling, and was constantly pushing Nick to get him to admit it.

Nick knew it would not be smart to fall in love with Win now. She was still attached to AJ, and there was always the possibility that she would go back to him. But he couldn’t help it. Not only was she the perfect woman by his standards. She was smart, independent, ambitious, funny, great fun to be with, interesting and interested, talented, humble, honest, the list went on.

So far he’d been able to resist temptation. He had dreamed of kissing Win since they had met six months ago. He had resisted the temptation just to take her hand while they were walking or sitting on the couch watching movies. He had resisted reaching out and stroking her mud-colored hair as it fell over her shoulders when she fell asleep on the couch or when she tossed it over her shoulder to keep it out of her face. But now that he was so close to her he couldn’t keep his thoughts free of her. He couldn’t stop thinking about her all the time. He knew it was wrong, he’d have to just keep his heart in check before he got hurt himself.

Dinner was wonderful. Win spent most of the evening carrying baby Winifred around and talking with Brian, Brianna, Kevin and Tessa. AJ lurked in the corner, his arm around his new girl he had brought with him to make Win jealous. When he introduced this new girl, Tiffany, to Win he called her his girlfriend, and Win as his friend. Win was gracious and smiled when she met Tiffany, much to AJ’s dismay. To this he asked,

“So where’s the mystery man Win?”

“Oh, busy is all.” Win replied with a gentle smile. Tiffany was actually a nice girl, and had Win not been dating Nick, she might have been jealous.

“Win, could you give me a hand with the baby?” Brianna asked putting a hand on her shoulder.

“Oh yeah.” Win replied and followed Brianna upstairs to the baby’s room. Brianna allowed Win in first and then closed the door behind her. Win went to the crib and looked down at the baby smiling.

“She’s so beautiful Brianna.” Win said with a smile.

“Thank you Win. She’s such a good baby too. But Win, what I really wanted you to come up here for, I wanted to talk to you.” Brianna said.

“About what?”

“You and AJ. I know that you are dating Nick.” Win stood up and looked at her.

“How did you know?”

“It’s just a little obvious sweetie.” Brianna said touching her arm. She motioned to the chairs by the window and Win took a seat. Brianna went to the crib and picked up baby Winifred before taking a seat.

“What’s the matter Brianna?” Win asked.

“Win, I heard what AJ did, and I sympathize with you. But you need to break it off. Now, before he thinks that he has a chance.” Brianna said rocking the baby in her arms.

“I know I’ve taken advantage of Nick, and he’s been sweeter to me than I deserve.” Win replied.

“No, not Nick sweetie, AJ. It’s time you made it clear that you are not going back to him.” Brianna replied.

“Oh. I know. It was dumb to try and save it anyway.” Win replied shaking her head.

“I know you love him honey, and I know it’s hard. Once I thought Brian had cheated on me, and it broke us up for a long time.”

“Brian cheated on you?” Win asked surprised.

“No he didn’t, a girl we were both friends with said that Brian and her had slept together. I didn’t know whether to believe her or not. All three of us had been friends for a very long time. Brian swore up and down that he never had anything to do with her. But I didn’t believe him.”

“Well you two got back together, what happened?”

“Eventually the story got figured out. She was trying to break the two of us up so she could date Brian, she admitted she lied. Even though nothing happened between them, I still can’t trust him sometimes. I know he wouldn’t do anything, but that doesn’t stop me from worrying.” Brianna replied.

“I couldn’t go through this again. Not knowing what happened or not. I can’t trust him, not anymore. And if I can’t trust him, what kind of relationship can it be?”

“That’s not called a relationship then sweet heart. It’s called a travesty. He’ll be mad for a while, but he’ll get over it. He has to, he has a daughter he has to take care of now.”

“You are right Brianna. I was afraid to admit it. I still love him even now. Not with the intensity I once felt of course. But I guess you can never forget when you love a person, and I don’t think you ever really do stop loving them entirely. There’s always a piece of you that will love them forever.” Win said thoughtfully as she looked out the window. Nick was helping Brian set up the table on the lawn for dinner. She smiled to herself as she looked at Nick. She had to admit, she wanted to be with Nick, not AJ, and her feelings for him were not nearly as strong as they had once been.

As she watched Brian walk to the house, Nick remaining and putting up folding chairs leaning against the tree she noticed another person walk out onto the lawn. It was AJ and he walked casually over to Nick who looked up as he saw AJ approach.

Brianna gave Win a sidelong glance but she did not see it since her gaze was intent on the two men below. AJ gestured to Nick to leave the chairs and talk to him. AJ was quite calm it seemed. Just talking to Nick and then Win saw it. AJ clenched his fist. His finger shot in the air accusingly at Nick, then he pushed him. Nick held up his hands in defense, trying to talk him down.

“Oh shit!” Win exclaimed jumping up from the chair and dashing out of the room. As she ran down the stairs she called to Kevin to help her.

She burst out the door to the yard running towards Nick and AJ who were now grappling arm to arm.

“Come on big man! You’re not afraid of me then prove it!” AJ yelled as he threw Nick to the ground. Nick popped back up, not daring to turn his back on him.

“I am not fighting you man! This is not the way to handle this!” Nick yelled as AJ dove at him, clipping his jaw.

“Knock it off!” Win screamed launching herself between them, knocking AJ off balance and forcing him back. Nick fell back on the ground holding his jaw.

“What the hell is wrong with you?” Win yelled pushing AJ back when he tried to go towards Nick again.

“So it has been him you’ve been screwing around with!”

“I have not been screwing around with anyone. And you do not have the right go beating up Nick!” Win shouted back. Kevin emerged on the scene and asked.

“What is going on?”

“None of your damn business Kevin!” AJ yelled.

“Knock it off!” Win shouted pushing AJ back.

“What the hell are you doing with him Win? Huh? Why are you doing this to me?” AJ asked.

“What I do no longer concerns you. And you want to talk about doing things, I didn’t kiss someone else. I didn’t hurt you half as much as you hurt me. AJ, we’re through. I don’t know you anymore. I never imagined you could hit someone. So here, take your ring and go.” Win said pulling the ring off her finger and putting it in his hand.

“But Win, please,” AJ said begging.

“No, I will not change my mind. This is no way to resolve anything AJ, I can’t be with a man who acts like this. Forget it.” Win turned and helped Nick off of the ground.

“Win look out!” Win turned around, and got in the way of AJ’s fist, as he aimed for Nick. Her eyes went black and her nose felt as if it were on fire. Blood blossomed down her face and hands. She heard a jumble of voices as she tried to open her eyes but they were swimming with color. She felt her legs fall out from under her and she was lifted up into someone’s arms.

“Brian, you know where the hospital is?” She heard Nick ask from far away. Slowly things were coming into sharper focus.

“Yeah, get in the car, I’ll be right there.” Brian called.

The next thing she remembered was sitting in a doctor’s office and having her nose painfully set. Nick was in the waiting room with Brian, pacing back and forth.

“I can’t believe he did that! I should have pulled her out of the way, at least he would have hit me!” Nick said angrily.

“Nick, no one knew he was going to dive back at you.” Brian replied.

“Oh, it’s all my fault, I knew he would go crazy when he found out I was dating Win. I knew it and I went through with it anyway. Now Win’s hurt again. I’m so stupid!” Nick said throwing himself into a chair.

“You’ve actually been dating her?” Brian asked surprised.

“Yeah, I have. I was too stupid to realize what would happen. God, what the hell have I done?” Nick asked rubbing his forehead.

“I’m not going to say anything Nick, you know what you’ve done. But if you care about Win, you’ll take care of her. And if she means that much to you, you’ll do anything for her. And it will be worth it.”

“I know, I do care about her. I just shouldn’t have gotten into this in the first place.”

“You can’t change that now. Just take care of her.” Brian replied. A few minutes later Win emerged from the emergency room, her nose covered with a bandage. Nick jumped and went to her.

“How is it?” Nick asked.

“Broken. But the doctor said it will be better in a few weeks.”

“I am so sorry Win, this is all my fault.” Nick said.

“No, it’s not all your fault. I agreed to this too. I just never thought he’d hit anyone.” Win replied.

“I know, I know. Come on, let’s go home.” Nick said putting his arm around her shoulder.
