Nick and Jennifer were walking by a non-violence statue when he saw a familiar face, coming their way.
"God, what is she doing here? Come on Jennifer this way." He took her hand and led her behind the statue.
"Phew, she didn't see me...."
"Who didn't see you?"
"Mandy...she's here on a modeling job, and she's the last person I wanna deal with right now. Now all I wanna do is to be with you. I can deal with her later"
"Yeah, but I thought things were over between you too."
They made their way down the street once again and stopped by a café.
"You know how we were late last night? Well she called and begged me to take her back. She promised to be more soft and friendly with other people if I did. But when I told her that I didn't want her anymore she started to cry and I tried to calm her down but she wouldn't listen I don't wanna go trough that again, not now."
"Oh Ok." They were sitting by a small table drinking a coke.
They sat in that cafeteria for about two hours before they went to go CD-shopping.
Jennifer immediately went to the section with The latest albums while Nick went Playstation section.
After twenty minutes Jennifer found the CD she wanted and went to look for Nick.
"Hey Carter, have you found anything yet?"
"Nope, have you?"
"Well I got this for my brother. It was a Swedish rap-artist on the cover called Petter.
"Who is that?"
"Um...someone my brother likes. He's Swedish."
"Woo! He's scary!!"
"Yeah I know...but he has some good songs anyway...."
"Yeah I guess....."
"You guess, you haven't even heard the guy!"
"Well I know that you like our music and our music is good and since you like some of his songs they must be good."
"Hey Carter, don't say things like that....for all you know I could be some crazy lunatic who just happens to like your music and likes all kind of other stuff..."
"Yeah, but still."
They went to pay for the CD and then they headed back to the hotel. At the hotel they went to Jennifer's room to get some clothes they decided to find a place to go swimming. Nick settled down on the sofa and started to doze off. But just when he was about to fall asleep the phone rang. He heard Jennifer speak, but he couldn't understand a word of what she was saying. But from the tone of her voice she was happy at first but then she became so sad. After she hung up she came to Nick.
"That was my friend who was supposed to come tomorrow. She can't make it. Her brother is sick and her parents need her to take care of him while they're at work. So I guess I'll be going home soon, since she ain't coming."
"Oh, I'm sorry. But can't you stay at least three more days?"
"Why? Maybe..."
"Well we're gonna be here at least for three more days and I'm having so much fun with you. And remember you promised me to take me to that amusement park!!"
"When you put it that way.... Yeah I guess."
"Yihaa!!!!" Nick's outburst cracked Jennifer up and she just couldn't stop laughing.
Then when she finally stopped she saw the weird face Nick had, like she was insane or something, she cracked up again, and this time Nick joined her.
When they both were done they complained about stomachaches and then Jennifer went to finish packing her bag. Then all of a sudden Nick startled by a long line of words that he didn't understand, but they didn't sound that nice.
"What's up Jenn? Is anything wrong?"
"Yeah, me! I'm so screwed up!! I left my bathing suit at home on my bed!!!!"
"Hey baby, that's no problem, we can always go skinny dipping!!" He had walked to her so he was standing right in front of her and he was giving her a mischievous grin.
"Don't push your luck honey!!" She said and playfully hit him on the chest.
"Well then I'll buy you one"
"You can't buy me one just like that!"
"Sure I can, you know I got the money."
"Well I couldn't except it from a guy I've only known for two almost three days."
"Well if I say it like this then? You and my sister is the same size I think, what if I buy it to her and you borrow it? And then I accidentally put it in the wrong bag?"
"You don't give up, do you?"
"Nope, my mind is set on swimming!!"
"Ok then Mr. Rich guy you can buy me one.... But it has to cover all my personal parts"
"Hey, you get to pick it out yourself, silly"
"Oh.... You mean it like that?" Jennifer felt a bit stupid for assuming something else.
"Yeah, what did you think?" Nick started cracking up.
"Um...well, how can I help it that I'm so stupid!!!" Jennifer said. That only made Nick laugh more at her statement as well as the expression on her face.
"Hey, don't push your luck Carter.... I can leave at anytime I want and if you're gonna laugh at me I might do that." Jennifer got a serious tone in her voice.
"No!, no don't do that!! I promise I won't laugh." He said and sounded a bit desperate. Now it was Jennifer's turn to laugh.
"GOT YA!!"
"Oh.... I'm gonna get you so bad." Nick said with a fake anger in his voice at the same time as his eyes got thinner and he fixed them on her. This face was so ugly that Jennifer could do nothing but to laugh even more. When she was finished he waited a while longer and then he got tired of it.
"Are you coming already?"
"Nope I need to do some other stuff before...you know I'm a girl." Jennifer said with a grin on her face.
"Yeah, what is it with you girls and time? I'll go pack my bag, I'll meet you in the lobby later, ok?"
