nick carter imagines

#2

POV: you and nick have known each other for years and you've always had a crush on him but he never returned your feelings. Or so you thought.

"Hey y/n come here! We're watching a movie." Nick called from the living room couch, laughing as he put his arm around his girlfriend Mandy. The rest of the boys were there are well, also with their girlfriends. They were all on a break from touring, and had decided to rent a house in hawaii for a few weeks, bringing along their girlfriends and family. You however did not fall into either categories. You had been nicks best friend for ages, but you had gotten somewhat distanced ever since nick started dating Mandy. She absolutely hated you, she never smiled at anyone, only at nick but she seemed so fake, like she was only dating him for attention. You tried telling Nick this once but he didn't listen to you. You were honestly surprised Mandy even tolerated you being here, but nick had said he missed you. And to be honest you missed him too. You've loved him for years, more than a friend but he never gave any indication that his feelings matched yours so you never told him. You all had already been here for 2 weeks, and you were at my breaking point, seeing them together. Your heart broke a little each day seeing them together, whether it was hugging or kissing or playing on the beach. You honestly didn't know how much longer you could take it.

Seeing your forlorn expression at seeing nick put his arm around Mandy, brian whispered in your ear," I really am sorry about him y/n. You know none of us like Mandy. You and nick would be much better together."

"Wh-what?," you stuttered.

"Come on y/n, we've seen the way you look at him," AJ chimed in.

"Yeah well it's never going to happen." You said my eyes brimming with unshed tears.

"I wouldn't be so sure about that y/n," Kevin whispered softly. "I'm sure Nick has feelings for you, he just doesn't entirely know it. Mandy is blocking him from realizing it."

"Guys what's taking you so long?" Nick shouted. "I wanna watch the movie now!"

"We're coming!" Replied brian, patting your shoulder before running over to the couch, the other boys following him. You took a deep breath, and made your way over to the very edge of the couch, the farthest side away from Mandy and nick. Kevin turned off the lights and started the movie, which was some old cheesy horror movie. You didn't pay much attention to it, hearing Mandy giggle and jump every so often when she was scared, Knowing that nick was right there comforting her and hugging her was just painful. The lights finally turned back on, startling you slightly. You were so caught up thinking about nick you didn't even realize the movie ended.

"Wow that movie was scary!" Nick exclaimed jokingly. "I don't know how I am going to be able to sleep now."

"I can think of something we can do instead," Mandy said suggestively biting her lip and staring up at him.

Your throat closed up, You couldn't even breathe. You stumbled as you stood up from the couch and ran to the back of the house to the back door, so busy trying to get out that you missed nicks hesitation and guilty glance towards you. You fumbled with the door handle and ran outside, in your clothes not even realizing that a thunder storm was going on. You ran to the palm tree in front of the beach, sitting below it. Your eyes began to spill over with tears as you thought of everything. You were so sick of it. So sick of trying to hide your feelings, so sick of seeing nick all the time without really getting to spend actual time with him, so sick of Mandy and how she clearly tried to make you feel worse about yourself, so sick of how she constantly clung to nick like she owned him, so sick that you would never ever get to be with him.

You put your face into your hands, and just sobbed. It felt good to get all the emotions out for once. Your tears were mixed with the rainwater so much you couldn't tell them apart. You had barely been outside for two minutes and you were completely soaked, the rain continuing to come down in huge sheets. Suddenly over the thunder you heard a loud slam of the back door from the house. You turned around quickly, surprised to see Nick there, running out in the rain.

"Y/n!" He yelled, trying to see through the rain.

"Y/n!" He called again. You stumbled trying to get up from where you had sat in the sand.

"Nick?" You said, wincing as your voice slightly trembled from my crying.

"Oh y/n! I didn't know where you went! There's a storm you know it's not safe and- wait," he asked, stepping closer to you, brushing your hair out of your face putting your red eyes on display. "Are you crying?" He said with a shocked look on his face. He looked so genuinely concerned, frowning as he continued looking at your face.

"Why are you crying? What's wrong?" He said softly.

"It's nothing," You mumbled, you couldn't meet his eye level. You were afraid you would break down again.

"Come on y/n I know that's not true! I've known you since we were five! I can tell something is wrong."

You just stood there feeling numb. You couldn't, wouldn't, shouldn't tell him.

"You know you can tell me anything, you're my best friend." He said softly. You finally gained the courage to look in his eyes. They were so soft and genuine, full of concern. You completely lost it, your legs gave out and you fell, sobbing, hardly even noticing that nick caught you, and held you to his chest. He was whispering reassuring things to you, but you couldn't take it anymore, You scrambled out of his embrace and stood in front of him, taking a shaky breath. You had to tell him, so he would finally know the truth and you could both be free from this.

"Nick I- I can't do this anymore." You started out, your eyes brimming with fresh tears you forced to not spill over.

"What do you mean?" He stood up in front of you, his gaze shocked.

"I can't just keep pretending everything is fine, because it's not."

"I'm not sure I get what you're saying" nick said slowly, a concerned and confused expression on his face.

"Nick I love you. And I know you don't love me, but I just need you to know, because I just can't stand it. I can't stand seeing you with Mandy, she just looks at you like you belong to her and she's so controlling and I know you deserve better than her! I can't pretend that it doesn't hurt me because it does. I'm sorry I can't be just satisfied with our friendship but the truth is I want more, and I've always wanted more, because I know I want you, and I know you're the only one I'll ever want."

Nick just stood there, his mouth open in shock, and if not for all the things you just said you definitely would've laughed. You waited a few more seconds, nick not saying a word.

Your face burned with rejection, this time You knew it was real. " I really am sorry," You whispered, turning around to go back to the house. You walked quickly, not wanting to face him, when all of a sudden you felt a hand grab onto your arm. You turned around to see nicks face inches from yours, his blue eyes dark with such lust it made you gasp. The next thing you knew he was grabbing your waist forcefully and kissing you, his soft lips on yours. You couldn't even think. You just grabbed onto him, running your fingers through his wet blonde hair, the rain still pouring on you both. He finally pulled apart from you, but kept his face close to yours.

"I'm so so sorry." He said breathlessly. "I was so stupid, I never should have been with Mandy. It's you. It's always been you. You're the one I love y/n"

"Say it again." You whispered, smiling up at him with such happiness that you knew no one in the world was as happy as you were with nick right now.

"I absolutely love you," nick murmured, his hand pulling your face up gently to kiss him, leaving you breathless. He left no space in between you and him, his hands gripping your body. Just as he began to kiss down your neck he suddenly stopped, bringing his lips to your ear.

"Oh and also," he whispered,"I broke up with Mandy."

You grinned,"so it's me and you now?"

"Me and you for as long you want" nick replied smirking as he pulled you in for another kiss.

ahhhhh I hope you all enjoyed this imagine!!
