"Lucy.... oh, Lucy!" Nick sang dreamily. He sighed and gave his best friend a quick hug, heading to the back of the bus.
"He’s got it bad, amigos," AJ remarked. All eyes turned to him. "He’s got it REAL bad."
"What are you talking about?" Kevin demanded.
"Nicky’s in love, guys." Brian just about hit the floor in shock. "Think about it. He comes waltzing in here, daisy in hand, humming some nonexistant song, and who do we know named Lucy?" Brian reluctantly let the facts sink in.
Before much else happened, Nick came meandering out from his bunk, holding a journal in his hands. He was still humming.
His temper rising, Brian immediately filled a Tupperware container full of water and threw it in Nick’s face. "AAH! What was that for?!" Nick demanded furiously, wiping water out of his face. "Jesus Christ, Brian, what’s your problem today?!" When he didn’t answer, Nick heaved a furious expletive and left the bus in a storm. AJ chewed on his tongue and watched after him.
