�When did I get pierced? That sounds funny Howie. I�ve had my nose and eyebrow in for a while, I just don�t usually wear anything in them.� �Why, they look good?� �Thanks. I don�t know, it turns a lot of people off and the first thing they think, is freak.� �I see.� �Theresa?� I glanced over at Nick and smiled. �Can I talk to you?� �Sure. Excuse me D.� I smiled at Howie and got out of the booth. I walked out on the dance floor and put my arms around Nick�s neck. �What�s up Nick?� �You�re close with Megan, right?� �Of course. Why?� �Is she into AJ?� I glanced over at Megan and cringed. �She is?� �No, I can�t say that Nick. Why?� �I like her. She�s funny, smart, and beautiful.� �That she is.� �I want to hook up with her, but it�s hard cause I�m not going to fight with my best friend.� �I understand Nick. I�m sorry, I don�t know what to tell you Nick. I would say talk to her though, who�s to say things will go right between her and AJ. They might get a long, but things always tend to fade.� He smiled at me and gave me a kiss on the cheek. �You�re the greatest Theresa.� �I try Nick.� He laughed and once the song ended, walked over to Megan and asked her to dance. I put my arms around Nick�s neck and smiled. We swayed to the slow song and I loved being in his arms. I closed my eyes and put my head on his shoulder. I heard him sigh and I glanced up at him. �What�s wrong Nick?� �Megan, this isn�t easy for me to say this, but I like you a lot.� �Oh.� �And I was wondering if you wanted to go out sometime.� �Wow. Nick, um, I don�t know what to say. Gosh, can you give me a second.� �Sure.� I smiled and went in search of Theresa. I saw her dancing with AJ and frowned. I walked over to them and tapped her on the shoulder. She turned around and I pointed to the bathroom. She nodded her head, said something to AJ and we walked to the bathroom. �Theresa!� �What Megan?� �Nick asked me out.� �What�s the problem?� �I�m dating AJ.� Theresa glanced at me and raised her eyebrow. �Wow. He asked you out then?� �Yeah.� �So tell Nick that.� �I can�t.� �Don�t play them Megan, I won�t talk to you if you do that. And you and them are going to get hurt, remember, we�ve been down this road.� �But this is different.� �No, it�s not Megan. Listen to me, if you play them both, you�re going to get hurt, so are they, and I�m going to be the one to pick up the pieces.� �I won�t let that happen.� �Don�t risk it Megan. Talk to Nick. He�ll understand.� �I don�t know who I want.� �Stick with AJ. You can always break it off.� I glanced at Theresa and nodded my head. Of course, she was right. She was right about everything. �Thanks.� �No problem chica.� We walked out and I walked over to Nick. �Can I talk to you Nick?� �Of course.� We walked outside and I turned and looked at him. �This isn�t good news is it?� �I�m dating AJ. I�m sorry Nick. You�re a wonderful friend to me and I don�t want to lose that.� �Just make sure he doesn�t hurt you cause I will kick his ass if he does, kay?� I smiled and nodded my head. He gave me a hug and walked back into the club. Shortly, I was following. I took my seat on the end and kept my head down. I heard someone clear his throat and I saw Howie standing in front of me. �Wanna dance?� �Where�s Resa?� �I�m not sure. Come on.� He grabbed my hand and out on the floor we went. �Do you like Resa?� �She�s a good friend. I don�t know, she�s a little young for me.� �Only a couple of years.� .� �I know. She�s funny though.� �Yes, she is.� �So, you�re officially dating AJ huh?� �Yup, his mine.� �Well, I hope you two are happy.� I laughed and gave him a hug. �There�s Theresa. Why don�t you go ask her to dance?� �I might, later though.� We danced for a little longer and after that, we decided to go home, seeing how the day was long and we were tired. Two weeks later, I sat down in AJ�s chair, waiting for him to come in. He was 15 minutes later and I was pissed. This wasn�t like him. I got up and started grabbing my stuff. I turned as I heard the door open and in walked AJ. I glared at him and he just gave me an odd look. �What did I do?� �Your late AJ.� �I am? Oh, I�m sorry Megan. I thought I was early.� �Whatever. Sit down.� He sat down and I quickly did his hair and make up. �I gotta go.� �I look plain.� �I don�t give a shit.� �You should, seeing how we�re paying you to make me look good.� �So?� |
