Preview Of New Fan Fic,
There's no reason for the pic...I just thought Nick was cute!!!

"Jamie? Why’s your light on?" Howie whispered as he peered around the door. It was about one in the morning.
"I’m just helping Nick with our Math homework." I told him. Nick and I were working at my desk on our algebra.
"Well it’s really late, you should both get some rest." Howie said.
"I know, but it’s gotta be done by tomorrow." Nick insisted. "And I’m no good at algebra...Jamie’s the brainy one."
"Hey!" I exclaimed, playfully punching Nick on the shoulder.
"What?! It’s a compliment!" he said with a giggle.
"Well just finish up in the next fifteen minutes, okay?" Howie asked.
"We will." Nick and I replied in unison, giggling.
"And for Heaven’s sake, be quiet." he told us sternly. With that, Howie left the room.
"You know what he thought we were doing, don’t you?" I asked Nick as we settled back into the algebra.
"No, what’s that?" Nick asked.
I rolled my eyes. "You’re so naïve, Nicky!" I told him, laughing.
"No I’m not!" he replied with a frown.
"So you know all about girls and boys?" I asked him, giggling.
Nick shifted uncomfortably in his seat and gave me a look. "Yes, I know about girls and boys."
"Okay, only asking." I paused. "It’s just..." I started.
"It’s just what?" he asked me, slightly annoyed.
"Well it’s just that you haven’t been to much of junior high and you haven’t been to high school at all...I just wondered when you had sex-ed."
"I don’t wanna talk about it." he snapped.
"Okay, sorry. I didn’t know this was such a touchy subject."
"It’s not, you just make it a touchy subject." he replied grumpily.
"Why, what did I do?" I inquired, feeling insulted.
"It’s just not the sort of thing girls talk about with guys."
"So now you’re being a prude." I stated, feeling a bit irritated with Nick’s attitude toward the whole subject.
"I’m not a prude! Look I dunno what it is, okay?"
"I don’t think you’ve ever had a friend who’s a girl before, have you?" I asked him, realising what the problem was.
"Well..." he started to reply, but I interrupted him.
"That’s what it is! You’ve never talked with a girl before like this. When you’ve spoken to girls, it’s always been when you’re dating them. And you feel uncomfortable talking to me about it because I’m just a regular girl and not your girlfriend. I’m right, right?"
Nick frowned harder but gave in. "Yes, you’re right."
"Yes!" I cried, happy that I’d worked it out on my own.
"You know, you should become one of those psychoanalysts or something." Nick told me, still in a mood with me.
"Maybe I should. You know...you’re really easy to figure out."
