Eric and I were snuggled in his bed, Andre in the next bed and we were all watching Halloween when my phone rings,
"It's one in the morning, who in the heck is calling me?" I thought about Elliott and grab my phone,
"Hello?"
"Hey, what are you doing?" Nick, what is he calling for,
"Nothing...watching a movie."
"What room are you in, I'll watch with you." I look over at the guys and stand up so they can hear the movie,
"I'm not in my room, I'm in Eric and Andre's room."
"Oh, ok then-" I don't know what came over me and why I did it but I did,
"We can watch it in your room...if that's cool?"
"Yeah, come on over." I nod absent-mindedly,
"Ok, I'll be there in like ten minutes." He hung up and I turn to Eric,
"Get out of here, I was wondering when you two were going to hang out." I give them both a kiss on the cheek and stop by my room before going up to see Nick. I strip down and step in the shower, what am I doing? Am I actually primping for Nick? It's getting worse, I'm getting worse.
Lying in bed next to Nick watching Halloween is a very difficult thing. The lights are out and he had to put a pair of glasses on, does he know what those glasses do to a girl? After taking a shower, putting on vanilla flavored lotion and reapplying my make up to look as if I was hardly wearing any I made my way to Nick's room to see him in a pair of sweatpants and a white wife-beater. Jamie Lee Curtis almost gets her head chopped off and I jump, convieniently in Nick's arms,
"Are you ok?" I look up at him,
"I've never seen this movie before." He looks at me as if I'm crazy,
"Are you serious?" I nod,
"I saw the one with LL Cool J...H20 but not the ones before it." I don't move quickly out of his arms and he doesn't seem to mind so we lay there snuggling,
"You know...this is nice." I look over to him,
"What is?" His eyes stayed on the television,
"Hanging out like this watching a movie. I like to hug." I smile,
"So do I, it's nice to feel someone next to you." I look back at the television,
"So who was your friend I saw you with earlier?" He sighs,
"Oh, just a fan that wanted a picture." I look up at him and laugh,
"You usually take girls up to your room for a picture?" He shrugs,
"Yeah, if I don't want to get caught in the lobby." I sit up when he begins to move, he walks over to the coffee table and picked up and bottle of Gatorade,
"Does Tori know about these hotel room photo shoots?" He took a sip and shook his head,
"No...you know you girls make something out of nothing. Why even bother going through that." I smile as I lay back,
"I'm sure Princess Tori would understand." Nick looks over at me,
" Why do you call her that?" I laugh,
"I dunno, seems to fit." He shakes his head and walks over to his suitcase,
"She's a nice girl, you should give her a chance." I laugh and nod my head,
"Sure, she can do my make-up." Once I don't hear laughter, which is what I expect, I turn to see him staring at me, shaking his head disapprovingly,
"What?" He stares another couple of seconds, so intensely it makes me nervous and I break eye contact and begin to watch TV again,
"You are such a snob."
