Chapter 8

I woke up in Brian’s arms lying on the couch I didn’t want to wake him up so I put his arm around Nick, who was lying next to me. I couldn’t believe it, only 24 more hours until I had to leave. I went to go pick up Fricky and take a shower. When I got out Krissie was getting packed up already.

“Why r y packing?” I questioned.

“So then I won’t have to tomorrow” She hissed. Her eyes were red from crying. I don’t know why but I couldn’t cry. I was usually very emotional. I cried when I heard a sad song on the radio for god sakes! I turned around and saw Katie walking toward me. She had all her stuff packed too.

“Geez you guys, I’m going to make Brian suffer and help me pack” I joked.

“How can you not be sad? Whenever I think of not seeing Nick my heart feels empty,” Katie exclaimed.

“Well, I try to think positive 24/7, I think of it that it’ll only be 3 months until I see Brian again, not that I’ll be away from him for 3 months” I replied. Krissie looked at me and smiled.

“AH, Frick I don’t like you like that” I heard Nick scream. I ran into the living room to see that Brian had an astonished look. He had woken up to have his body resting on Nick.

“Hey, I fell asleep with Nikky” Brian mumbled walking into the bedroom. I followed him and wrapped my arms around his waist.

“I hate this” Brian mumbled “ I can’t be away from you”

“Sure you can, It won’t kill you” I joked. Brian was taken back by my reaction. I knew that I was being really bitchy. That was the way I dealt with problem. I tried to make it happy so it didn’t effect me.

“I’m sorry Brian, I’m trying to make myself feel better, It isn’t working” I sighed. Brian smiled at me. I knew I would miss his smile.

“I know what will make you feel better” He gushed. I gave him a look as he grabbed my hands.

“Stay Here” He instructed. I sat down on the bed and closed my eyes. When I opened them I couldn’t believe what I saw.

“Can I touch it?” I asked.

“Sure” Brian replied. He showed me a basketball signed by Michael Jordan. (What were you thinking I was going to touch you perverts?) I stared at the basketball and smiled.

“Let’s go play a game before I leave” I begged.

“Later, let’s just hang with the guys today” He replied. I shrugged and went outside. Kevin was getting dressed and standing in his boxers/briefs.

“Oh, Kev, Nice butt” I yelled. He turned around and blushed.

“I, um” He sputtered.

“Relax Kevin, geez” I laughed. AJ had a brochure with all the things to look at while in France. I sat down with Katie and in the end decided to just hang out around at the hotel.
