�That was Sunnie�s sister, Madeline,� Nickolas replied.
�Why is she calling you?� Kevin questioned.
�To invite me to her wedding to Nick Lachey,� Nickolas answered and Kevin raised an eyebrow. �Well, Danielle decided it was her duty to tell Madeline that I slept with her sister and now Madeline is pissed and threatened to cut my dick off if I ever go near her sister again.� He grinned and Kevin just looked at him. �There was a reason Sunnie and I agreed to keep what happened between us a secret. She couldn�t keep her part of the agreement though.�
�She trusted us not to say anything and I haven�t.�
�She should�ve known that she can�t trust any of her friends. I mean, she told me all kinds of stories where they broke that trust between them, but she keeps telling them things that are meant to be secret.�
�Some habits are hard to break, Nickolas. They�ve been friends for a very long time�longer than we have.� Nickolas sighed and laid his phone down, as Kevin did the same.
�The last thing I needed right now was my ex-girlfriend�s sister calling and telling me she�s going to cut my dick off.� They laughed. �I�m glad she comes from a warm loving family.�
�She could hunt ya down and put ya six feet under.�
�That makes me feel so much better.�
�Apparently Sunshine�s sister is protective of her just like you are of your brother and sisters.�
�That�s different.�
�How so?�
�Because it is.�
�If you say so, Nickolas, I�m not going to argue.� Nickolas grinned.
�I just wish I understood Sunnie better.�
�Well if you don�t keep pushing her away I�m sure you would be able to. She�s not going to let you any closer unless you give her a reason too.�
�And what reason would that be?� Kevin grinned. �Don�t even say it, Kev.�
�Say what?�
�You know what you were going to say. So don�t even say it. Actually don�t even think about it.�
�Whatever.� Nickolas just looked at him and picked up his cell phone not knowing it was the wrong one. Kevin continued grinning and Nickolas walked away.

�How many times do I have to tell ya,� Alexander began, as the guys took a break from rehearsal, �V and I are not engaged.�
�Yeah right,� Brian said. �Whatever.�
�Fine don�t believe me,� Alexander said.
�If you�re not engaged then what�s with that ring ya got her?� Howard questioned.
�She liked it so I just got it for her,� Alexander answered. �It doesn�t mean we�re engaged.�
�Whatever,� the guys said laughing and a cell phone rang and they all answered their own. �Hello.�
�It�s mine,� Kevin said and the others started talking again. �Hello.�
�Kevin?� the person asked confused. �It�s Sunn. I thought I dialed Nick�s number.�
�Hold on a minute,� Kevin said. He looked at the phone then said, �This is Nick�s. We must�ve picked up the wrong one.�
�Oh,� Sunshine said. �Is he busy? I need to talk to him.�
�Well he�s on the phone with Josephine right now. I can tell him to call ya.�
�No, that�s alright. I�ll just call him back later. I have to soon get back to filming.�
�Alright. How�s it going?�
�Great.�
�That�s good.�
�Yeah.�
�Will we see you at Christmas?�
�Not on Christmas day, but after. I�m sorry I didn�t get a chance to see you before I left and say bye.�
�That�s ok. We understood.�
�I�m glad. Did Nick?�
�He was a little upset that you left without saying anything, but I�m sure he understood.�
�I hope so. Dani said he was pissed at me.�
�I�m sure he�s not.�
�I hope not.�
�He doesn�t say.�
�Listen I have to go. Just tell Nick I called and I�ll call him later, ok?�
�Yeah, I will. Bye.�
�Bye.� Kevin turned off the phone as Nickolas walked over. �This belongs to you.�
�And this is yours,� Nickolas said, as they traded phones.
�Sunshine just called.� Nickolas looked at him. �She was looking for you. She had to go back to filming so she said she�ll call you back later.�
�Thanks. I�m not going to call her back, because I�m giving her that space she wants.�
�I�m glad.�
�Yeah.�
�Come on, we have show business.�
�Yeah.� They chuckled and rejoined the other guys.
