Nick ran out of the building all hot and sweaty. He ran his hair through his silky blonde hair. He ran as fast as he could until he leaned against an abandoned building. Is this supposed to hurt this much? He asked himself as he felt the burning pain in his heart. He tried to choke back a sob but he couldn’t stop himself. Tears rolled down his cheeks. It was just too much to see Brian kiss Rachel. He knew that it was only a music video, but he ached for her so bad. Why couldn’t she open her heart to him?

I put on my jacket and left the building.

“Rachel!” Leighanne caught up with me as I slowed down my pace. The November weather was really cold!

“That was cute,” she said quietly staring at the clear night

“Yeah…don’t be mad,”

“Why would I be mad?”

“Brian kissed me,”

“I’m not mad…it was only a music video,”

“You’re the best Leighanne,” I smiled at her. She hugged me and went into her car

“Wanna ride?” She offered

“No…that’s ok,” I said smiling. She drove away. I kept walking. The wind blew harshly on my cheek. I was surprised as a tear ran down it. A picture of Danny appeared in my head. I shook it out of my face. To my surprised, Nick’s face appeared. I closed my eyes and opened them. I shoved my hand into my pocket and kept walking.

Nick leaned against the wall and breathed in the cold air. He shivered as the wind blew

I saw Nick leaning against an abandoned house. He looked so lonely

“Cold…isn’t it?” I said looking up at the sky.

He looked at me “Yeah…it is,” he said

“I liked that song that we recorded,” I said

“I do too,”

“Nick…what’s wrong with you?”

“Nothing…”

“Is it about Brian kissing me?” I asked

“No comment,”

“Nick…we’re just friends. Brian and me. Me and you are just friends too,” I said softly. He didn’t say anything. I looked up at the sky. There was a shooting star

“Look,” I nudged him softly “Make a wish,” I said

“Can I say it out loud?”

“Sure,”

“I wish Rachel would love me,” I stopped staring at the shooting star and looked at him. He didn’t look at me. He just returned to his normal sad face. I hate to say this. But I think I had feelings for him now.

I leaned closer to him. He looked at me. I leaned forward a bit and kissed him softly on the lips. He looked at me in surprise

“When you wish upon a star…it surprises me what can happen” I whispered.

He stared at me and then burst into his beautiful smile. I smiled at him and kissed him again.

He held Rachel and thanked his shooting star. They fell asleep together that night.
