"It's tearin' up my heart when I'm with you, and when we are apart I feel it too, and no matter what I do, I feel the pain, with or without you." 'N Sync's Tearin' Up My Heart was blasting through the speakers of the club that Ali and Kevin had decided to go to that night.
The happy couple were on the dance floor at the time. Nick, of course, was watching from a side table, attempting to go unnoticed. He had been tailing Ali and Kevin all day, not being able to approach Ali without almost running into Kevin. Now, here he was, sitting at a table in some club that he didn't even know the name of, all by himself. It should be ME out there with her, not him, Nick thought while gripping his strawberry daqueri. Being Nick Carter from teh Backstreet Boys had it's advantages. One of them being that he could sweet talk any bar maid in the place into getting him alcohol. And it wasn't like he was driving, so he could basically get as plastered as he wanted.
After about three more songs, Kevin left Ali, headed for the bathroom. This was when Nick decided to make his move. Ali was dancing with random people she met on the dance floor, and was having a great time. Until someone tapped her on the shoulder.
She spun around and gasped when she saw Nick standing in front of her. "Nick, what are you doing here?"
"Business stuff. I decided to check out the club, and well, I found you," he said with a smile.
"You just missed Kevin, he went to the bathroom. Oh, jeez, Nicky, he's so sweet! You should hear the song he wrote for me- it's adorable! I'll tell you something, I really think I'm falling head over heels in love with him!" she exclaimed with a huge smile lighting up her face.
Nick felt like she had ripped out his heart, threw it on the floor and stomped on it. He closed his eyes for a second, letting it sink in, then his eyes snapped open. "Ali, you have to know something," Nick said, grabbing her arm.
"Nick, what are you doing? Stop it, that hurts," she said, trying to get her arm back.
Nick loosened his grip on her arm, but didn't let go. "I have been in love with you since I was thirteen years old, and it should be me that yo're with, not Kevin."
"Nick! What in the hell are you doing here? Let go of her!" Kevin yelled, running up to Ali and Nick.
"You've been in love with me?" Ali asked, not believing what Nick had told her.
"That's it Nick, I think you should leave. Now," Kevin said, grabbing Nick's arm.
"NO! I'm not leaving unless Ali's with me!"
"Nick, don't make me hurt you," Kevin warned.
"Like you'd hurt me, sure."
Nick's comment sent Kevin over the edge. Kevin pulled his fist back and let it fly toward Nick's eye. He connected with force, sending Nick flying backwards, into a croud of people. Nick was stunned; Kevin had never hit him before, even when Nick deserved it. Nick looked over at Kevin and Ali, Kevin's arms were wrapped around Ali, who had a look of confusion plastered on her face. Kevin looked at Nick, and mouthed to him, "I think you should go." Nick took his advise and walked out of the club quickly, only to bump into Lily Baker.
"Nick, what happened? Your eye looks horrible, are you alright? Who did this to you?" Lily shot out about thirty questions with one breath.
"Look, I'm leaving LA tonight. It was nice meeting you, my eye is fine, and I hope to see you the next time I'm here. Have a nice life," Nick muttered as he walked toward the valet to get his limo.
"What's his problem?" Lily asked herself as Nick walked away, his head hanging.
