The next morning, Lisa shaking her had waked Sarah up. " Good morning
sunshine, we have to get ready come on!' " Uh...." Sarah sighed as she got
out of bed. " I was surprised to find you here last night. I'd figure you
would have crashed at Nick's place for the night?" " Oh please." Sarah
shouted as she had begun to check her phone calls on her cell. " Man, James
called 3 times, I wonder what's up." " James, calling you 3 times in one
night?" Lisa spoke. " Yeah, that is so not right." Sarah exclaimed. " Oh, he
left a message on one of the calls, sh, be quiet." Sarah said as she pushed
the volume up. " Hey Sarah, I've been trying to get a hold of you all night.
I know you said you were going to go out for the evening, but I thought I
would leave a message. I wanted to know if tomorrow night at 8:30 you could
meet me at Michigan Lake in downtown Chicago. Let me know if you can't make
it. Other that I'll see you then. Buh bye."
" You know, I wonder what this guy is up to?" Lisa asked. " Ugh...Well, he
didn't say, Hey you, or Hey sunshine, or love you buhbye...He's probably
going to either break up with me, tell me that He's found someone else, or he
wants to take a break." " And how come you don't seem so upset about this
situation?" Lisa asked. " Because I wouldn't mind getting rid of James out of
my life for a little while." " What if he says he has found someone else? And
you find her to be much older and more beautiful?" ' Well, then that would
hurt I suppose." " Yeah..."
" Ugh...Love sux!!!!" Sarah laughed. " Oh, how did ur "reunion" go with Nick
last night?" Lisa asked. " please let's not get into it..." " Was it that
bad?" " Lisa...You will not believe what happened..." Sarah spoke as she had
gotten ready for the day while explain to Lisa what had happened.

" Yo Nick, get up, it's noon already!" Aj shouted as he shook Nick awake. "
It's noon?" " Yeah...You OK?" " No, I'm not, I'm so worn out." " Nick, what
did you do last night?" " Nothing." " No I mean with Sarah?" " uh, no aj, I
didn't go that far...oh man..." Nick mumbled as he raced to the bathroom and
shut the door...' Ooo, that didn't sound too good.' Aj went and knocked on
the bathroom door. ' Nick...You all right in there...'
Nick came out...He was hung over. ' Aj...I'll never drink a can of beer ever
again.' ' Nick...You drank?' ' Yeah...I was nervous as hell seeing Sarah
again...So I drank.' ' And...' ' And I acted like a complete fool...I was
drunk and was practically hitting on her. I feel like a jerk!' ' Oh, not
good.' ' Yeah, I know. I have to call her. I feel so bad.' Nick said as he
pulled out his cell phone and began to dial Sarah's number....
' Hello?' Sarah said in a foolish way. ' Sarah.' ' Yeah, who is this.' ' It's
Nick.' ' Oh...' ' Look, Sarah, I'm extremely sorry for my actions last night.
I was so nervous to see u again and drank b4 u showed up. I was drunk, and I
regret everything that had happened...Please...Give me another chance to
just. I...Sarah, I truly am sorry, and all I'm asking for is one more chance.
It's been so long, and finally I found u after so long... So come here please
again...To just talk after such a long time?' ' Look Nick, You scared me as
hell last night. I never thought of ever thinking of you acting like that
ever! I'm still pissed off. I can't believe you. But, since I know you are a
very down to earth boy, or I should say...Man... I have a show at 4...I'll
come later tonight. Sometime tonight OK, and please Dawson...Let's keep it
cool tonight all right? ' Yeah sure thing. I'm terribly sorry though Sarah..'
' Nick, are you OK?' Sarah asked. ' No, I'm just hung over. And I feel bad
for what I did. I'm just going to be resting for awhile. Thanks for another
chance Sar. Have a good show.' ' Thanks, and sleep!' ' Yea yea, yea I will.
Bye' ' Bye Nick.'
' So, what's going on?' ' He apologized and claimed he was drunk.' ' Well, no
kidding!' ' Yeah I know. I'm going over there later tonight. He sounds
terrible. Well, nuff bout Nick let's get to the Mall asap!' ' All right I'm
getting there!' Lisa said as she put the petal to the metal. ' So
Sarah...About that kissing thing that happened between you and Nick...Is he
still a good kisser?' Lisa asked. ' Well....' ' Come on Sarah admit it!' '
OK!!!! He must have had plenty of practice because for a drunk
guy...*sigh*...He is even a better kisser than b4!' ' Ooooo! You two were
meant for each other you know?' ' No I didn't. And thanks for reminding me.
Now...Let's go, everyone is probably looking where we are right now come on!'
Sarah said as she grabbed Lisa and ran into the mall...

' Hey Nick, how you doing?' Brian asked as him and Kevin had walked in. ' I'm
fine. Just tired.' ' Yeah, that's what happens.' ' So, is she coming
tonight?' Kevin asked. ' Yes, she is. She was real cool about this whole
thing.' ' Be glad that she is a very matured girl and understanding too ya
know Nick.' ' Yea, I know.' He laughed as he had gotten ready to be expecting
Sarah soon. ' What do you plan on doing this time Nick?' ' I just want to
talk. I just looked through the paper and saw some movies that I wouldn't
mind going to see, but that's if Sarah would like to. It's up to her. But,
still I can't get over on how I acted. I'm such an ASS!' ' Well Nick, you
learn from your mistakes that's all.' Kevin added. ' Yea, I know I know I
know....' Nick sighed as he went down to the sports area and shot some hoops
with Brian.

' Ugh...Man, that show was awesome!' Lisa spoke as she huffed and puffed her
way to their dressing room. ' You can say that again.' ' So...When are you
going by Nick?' ' Well...It's about 5 now...Maybe at 5:30 or 6.... I'm not
sure what do you think?' ' Well...I don't know, it depends on how you feel
being there with him.' ' Yeah, so I'll stay till I'm bored....' Sarah
laughed. ' Oh Sarah Ur so generous.' ' I know right...' She added as they had
changed into their normal cloths.
