Summary: Nini accidentally sends a drunken text to her best friend who also happens to be her ex.
*Rini fluff*
***********************************************
"You sure you're not gonna get too wild tonight? I know how you ladies get when you're drunk, and let me just say that you'll need to barricade the doors so you don't end up roaming the streets like last time."
Nini let out a hearty laugh at her best friend's words. "Ricky, that was one time! You gotta let it go."
"You and Gina were shirtless while running in the neighborhood. Ashlyn and Kourtney were cheering you on while Red and I had to chase you guys down. You could've gotten arrested!"
"And what about it?"
"You guys were belting We Will Rock You at 2 in the morning."
"Everyone could use a little Queen at random times of the night. It's good for the soul."
"Nina!"
She chuckles and nudges his arm. "I'm just kidding! Don't worry this time we won't get nearly as drunk as the last girl's night. I think we all learned our lessons from the hangovers and puking."
He sighs. "Good, because I don't wanna get a call at 4 am to come pick you guys up from a station."
"I promise I'll let you know if I think we'll be in trouble."
He smiles. "Sounds like a plan."
She walks up to him and gives him a hug. He happily embraces her back, rubbing his hand up and down her back. She blissfully sighs at the familiar feeling. She always adored when he hugged her like this when they dated a year ago. They had been so into the hug that they didn't hear Kourtney's footsteps from the basement.
"You two lovebirds done yet? Gina needs all hands on deck to bring this keg in."
They both blushed at the nickname and slowly pulled away from one another. Nini pushed her hair behind her ear. "We aren't together, and yeah I'll be down in a second."
"Better hurry cuz Ashlyn and Gina are not exactly the strongest, and I'm no better."
"You sure you ladies don't want my help too? I wouldn't mind. I have plenty of time to kill."
Kourtney shakes her head. "Nope, this is part of the girl's night tradition. All four of us gotta team up and push this bad boy into the kitchen. We've been doing it since junior year of high school all the way to now, and we can't ruin tradition now can we?"
"All power to you." He turns back to the small brunette in front of him and grins. "I'll see you later. Call me if you need me."
She nods. "You know I will."
He gives her a brief hug and a fleeting peck on the cheek, making her heart jump and her cheeks red.
"Bye Neens."
He gives a small nod to Kourtney before finding his way out. Nini grazed her hand over the area he kissed and began smiling like an idiot.
"When are you two getting back together? I'm getting sick of the not so subtle flirting back and forth."
Nini rolls her eyes. "You don't know what you're talking about. Also, you know how complicated Ricky and I's relationship is."
A year ago, Ricky and Nini had split after two years together because they felt like it wasn't the right time and that they rushed into it. Ricky also happened to be doing a semester abroad the following semester, so he wouldn't be able to spend time with her. They both made the amicable decision to stay friends, and it's been that way ever since.
