At the Hyatt...
"It's amazing you were ready an hour early..." Nick said
"Yeah and it was amazing you were twenty minutess late" I said
"Shut up" Nick snapped
"I guess I could....but why should I? You went on and on-" I said getting interrupted by Nick's hand. So I licked his hand.
"Gross..." Nick said wipping it on my arm.
"Gross huh?" I asked.
"Yeah..." Nick said
"Then I guess we will never kiss again if that is SO gross..." I joked, knowing this would push one of Nick's many buttons. Even though I knew damn well Nick or I could not last a day...more like an hour.
"Hey...I was kiddin....you know HAHA" Nick pleaded
"Sure Nick...." I said only to push Nick's buttons and I could see that this was wroking. Nick got out of his seat and came over to me and kissed me.
"So you changed your mind..." I asked
"Yeah..." Nick said. Nick walked back over to his seat.
"Hey Brian " he yelled
"Nick...hey" Brian said giving Nick one of those "guy hugs"
"Nick, Your so rude not introducing me to your date..." Brian said
"Sorry...Brian this is Lyndzey" Nick then giving me a quick kiss.
"Nice to meet you Lyndzey" Brian said shaking my hand.
"Call me Lyndz" I said
"Well...why do you two join me over there for dinner" Brian said
"Sure..." Nick said. Little did I know who he was out with.
"Mel, I hope you don't mind Nick and Lyndz joining us for dinner...do you?" he asked
"Yeah I do Brian...I dating you, not "them"!" Mel said turning around and glaring at me. The way she said "them" really pissed me off. It made us seem like we were inferior.
"Nick, why don't we just eat alone. I can tell that we are not welcome here" I said
"No, we are going to eat with them even if I have to starp you down" Nick commented
"Fine...I do it" I said. Nick pulled out a chair for me to sit in next to Mel and pushed me in, being a sweet gentalman that he is.
"Thank you" I said taking the napkin off the plate and putting it in my lap. For about five minute no one spoke.
"You two will talk or you two will never leave" Nick said
"I guess we will be here for a long time then..." Mel said
"Oh grow up Mel...be mature" I said
"You should talk!" Mel said
"Look Mel...Im sorry for lying to you and the few injuries I caused you but-" I said getting interrupted
"But what? Sorry my ass..." Mel said
"Im trying to make peace here and you are fighting it!" I bitched
"So what...I'm still mad at you" Mel said
"Sorry to hear...But if you are listening to me, hear this...I am really sorry about what I did. I didn't mean for that to happen. But just remember...I takes to to fight" I said getting up and leaving the table and walking away.
"Lyndz" Nick said following me
"You set this up didn't you?" Mel asked Brian
"Yeah...Nick and I did" Brian said
"You ruined a good night for this..." a cocky Mel asked
"No...you ruined a good friendship and a possible one too. Bye Mel" Brian said getting up "Call me when your ego shinks down"
"Fine...be that way" Mel said
"No...you stop being a bitch" Brian yelled back
I sat in the bathroom and did nothing but think how I messed up a relationship with my best friend over a guy. All sorts of things come up. 'Was breaking up with Charles the right think to do?' I asked my self. I also started to think al sorts of things.
"Lyndz...you in there?" Nick asked. A first I didn't aswer.
"Lyndz....?" he asked again
"Yeah..." I said
"Are you ok?" he said walking in to the women's bathroom.
"Nick" I said
"So what...Oh my God! You guys get magazines, books, nice couches, and little mints! All we have is toilets and sinks!" Nick complained
"Nick..." I said
"Sorry...answer me...you ok?" he asked
"No..." I said
"Tell me what's on your mind...I have all night and do anything to happy" Nick said. Now I was confused. How could he do that to Mel and our friendship?
"Im not sure...Im just confused right now..."I said
"About what?" he asked
" Don't say anything till I finish! Before you came in here, I was thinking that until I met you, Mel and I got along just fine. Now that you came in the picture...it has changed...alot. I was thinking maybe we were not ment to be" As soon as I said that, Nick's face dropped. I took my hand and pulling his chin up and looked into his eyes "But when you said you would do anything to make me happy...I knew I was wrong. I know things between Mel and I have not changed, but maybe that was ment to be. One thing I know for sure is that you and I are ment to be" I said with a tear rolling down my cheek. I pulled Nick close to me and hugged him tightly.
