The next day the guys had a video to make for “Shape of My Heart”. I had to go! I had always been curios on how they made them.
All the girlfriends came, even Howie’s girlfriend was still in town. I got to meet her. After we talked for a few minutes I found out why Howie liked her so much.
We all laughed and joked watching the guys, but made sire to stay out of camera view.
“Hey, Anne!” Nick called waving with his wet hand. I don’t know how he got it wet, but I could see the water shining off of it.
“If you dare touch me with that, I’m gonna kill you!” I screamed. He kept walking closer and I took off running.
“Anne, wait!” Amanda called, but then bust out laughing when she saw Nick chasing me.” I really hope those to get back together, and soon!”
“Nick no!” I screamed when he pinned me up against the front of the stage. He wiped his wet hand against my dry face. The water felt nasty against my skin.
“Got ya!” he laughed once he finished.
“That was so not funny, Carter!” I yelled jerking away and walking up towards Amanda.
“Oh yeah? Then why am I laughing?” he teased. I turned around and just smiled.
I watched them, well mainly Nick, work each and every detail out. When the female actress walked out on stage, I saw Nick flirt a hello. My heart rose into my throat. I almost stood up, but Amanda grabbed my hand.
“Don’t worry. She’s with that guy.” Amanda explained pointing to another guy I hadn’t even noticed. She scared me at times with how well she could read my slightest action.
I continued to watch their second day for the video. They were getting close too done. As they played the song the next time, the words rang in my head.
“Hold me now, don’t bother. For every second make me weaker...kept you in the dark...show you the shape of my heart....you can save me from the man I’ve become...I’m looking back on things I’ve done...” Then Nick’s voice rang out: “Now let me show you the true shape of my heart.” Tears came to my eyes as I realized that, that was what had just happened to me. I had been so cruel to Nick and tried to change myself.
“Hey, Anne! You okay?” Nick questioned as he leaned on the seat in front on me.
“No. Come here.” I whispered offering him my hand. Quickly I pulled myself up and took Nick out of the theater. Soon we were in a small barley lit room.
“What is it Anne?” he questioned.
Slowly my hands ran up his chest to his shoulders and around his neck. I leaned up to him and kissed him hard on the lips. Soon I felt his arms around me holding me tight. I kept kissing him over and over, never wanting it to end. I could her him breathing hard, but he didn’t stop.
After a few more minutes, he changed the kiss and frenched me for the longest time. He would have kept going if the guys hadn’t started to call him.
“I’m busy!” he yelled.
“Well...we need you now!”
“Fine!” he hollered. He was still holding me as he looked straight into my eyes. “Anne, please tell me this mean we’re back together!”
I could see the love in his eyes and felt the love over flowing in my heart. “Yes Nick, we are.” I smiled up at him,. His lips pressed against mine with such force, yet more love and happiness then I had ever felt between us was there.
“Carter! Come on!” One of the guys yelled. Reluctantly he pulled away and savored the kiss quickly as I did the same.
Nick grabbed my hand and pulled me into the theater. He then, took off running down the isle, leaving me standing. I watched standing in front of the back doors as he jumped up on the stage.
“What’s with you?” Brian asked as he motioned for all cameras to be turned off.
“Me and Anne are back together!” He yelled throwing his arms up in the air.
“Show us!” AJ demanded.
“Anne, come here.” Nick called. I walked up the isle and on stage. Nick pulled me in his arms again, We leaned toward each other kissed for a long time.
Claps and screams surrounded us. We soon broke apart and saw everyone crowding around us, yelling their congratulations.
I don’t know if I had ever been happier. This was how life should be and I knew it. Nick’s arms around me always, never ever to be taken away again. This time nothing in the world could come between us.
