Chapter 7: Nikki?
As I get out of the taxi I already see Nikki. She is wearing a gorgeous white dress with white lace netting.
As I walk across the bridge to get to her she waves at me smiling sweetly.
What is happening!? Is the just a plan for her to get me to trust her?
"Em!"I hear Nikki shout
"Hi Nicole."I say looking slightly confused,
She looks out at the lake.
"Wow... This place is amazing !" She starts.
"So what did you want to talk about?"I ask feeling a little out of place.
"First lets get some lunch. I am starving!" She sings.
We both order salads and start to discuss our situation.
"So... I know we have our issues after night of champions..."She starts.
"Yeah..."I say feeling the tension in the air.
"And... I was wondering if we could... You know...."She shrugs "Make up?"
"Okay."I say smiling a bit.
She stands up and comes over to me and holds her arms out for a hug. I stand up and hug her back.
"Do you need a ride?" Nikki asks
"Nah, Dean's gonna come get me ?" I answer looking over to lake and the setting sun.
"Dean huh?" She asks raising an eyebrow. "Are you guys a thing?!"
"Not really..." I say smiling a little.
"Oh my god! You are?" She beams at me
"No! No we are not."I try to hold back my smile , knowing she is gonna tell everyone.
"Don't worry ; your secret is safe with me!"she says walking over to her car
I pull out my phone and call Dean
"Hey you." I start.
"Hi." I hear him jangle his keys," You ready for me to come get you?"
"Yeah Dean" I smile." Thanks"
"For what?"He says
"For being you." I say , probably looking mental swaying and smiling like a crazy person.
" Well I will be there in... 5 ish minutes. So hang tight." He says as I hear him open the car door.
"Okay bye " I say.
"Bye."
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
As Dean pulls up I hear him singing loudly to 'Sorry by Justin Beiber'. I swing open the door and jump in. He looks at me as he sings and I laugh like a Crazy person.
The song ends I start giggling "Well that was really something."
"Thanks." He winks through the mirror. " How was lunch?"
"It was good, I guess. Really freaking awkward tho." I say.
"Did you guys make up?" He says whilst beeping his horn.
"Yeah, we hugged it out."I say yawning.
"So.." He says sighing
"So...." I repeat.
"Do you wanna come over for a bit?" He says turning down the radio.
"How long is a little bit?" I say raising an eyebrow.
"How ever long you want it to be Darlin." He smirks.
Once we arrive at Dean's house, we walk into the kitchen and he grabs a beer and a Coke for me. We sit at his counter and drink our drinks for a bit.
"So I haven't really talked to you much about what happened last time you were here..."He says breaking our partial-silence.
"What about?" I say trying to cover the fact that we kissed and it's a little awkward.
"The kiss..." He says trying to explain himself again.
"It's fine Dean, we already spoke about this." I say desperately trying to avoid any further awkwardness.
"Are you sure?" He asks staring into my eyes.
"Yes Dean I'm really, really sure. Okay?" I say trying to assure him that I didn't mind our kiss.
I walk into his lounge and sit. He quickly follows behind and jumps on next to me.
"Now... I need to ask you something?"
