In which Ai-Vy rewrites how she wanted s2 Rini to happen because they can. I honestly don't understand the plot: they spent all of season one trying to get back together, then they break up again...? What happened to "I'M NEVER GIVING UP ON US" and "I'm never breaking up with Nini again?"
A lot of cursing since my life is shit and I'm writing fanfics to cope with it.
Then again, Richard Bowen is not stable enough for a seriously committed relationship. Eh, I guess he's got a few more years in Neverland...

January 2020

Un, Deux, Trois, quatre, cinq, six, sept, huit, neuf-

"Ricky, I'm moving to Denver."

His face was frozen in a shocked smile for the next couple of seconds. "Oh."

"Ooh," Kourt winced as she looked back and forth between the two. Red and Ashlyn looked slightly scared, and Carlos and Seb plastered some utterly artificial smiles on their faces.

Suddenly, they heard a balloon pop in the background, making the whole room jump in surprise. "Ah!"

Buckle up, Wildcats, shit's about to get real.

"So...?" Nini asked weakly. They were both sitting in her room after the party, some shitty Hallmark movie playing in the background. On the way home, Ricky didn't talk much, or at all.

"So?" he replied.

"It was last-minute, I swear, I got accepted into that acting school, I already have a roommate, but I'll call. It's a great opportunity, but if you don't-"

"Hey, hey," he said gently, cupping her face. "I'm so fucking happy for you, Neens. You deserve this and the world. Do not throw away your shot."

"Oh, and you said you weren't into musicals."

"Whatever. The point is, I love you. I'm willing to wait for it and make this work...you grow closer with distance, right?"

"Oh my god, Bowen, you are so fucking cheesy."

"That may be true, but I'm cheesy just for you."

"Oh, do shut up," she said playfully as she swatted his arm away, but he looked so helpless, coquettish, and that mischievous and lustful gleam on his eye made her want to do unspeakable things to him...

They didn't waste another second.

February 2020

"Well, that's the last of your stuff," Ricky said as he closed the trunk. They'd just loaded the last items from Nini's room into her car for her trip headed to Denver. "I'll miss you."

"Please don't cry because if you start crying, I'll start bawling," she said, wiping away some small tears. "I love you."

"Love you more," she smiled as she met his lips in a quick (yet still very hot) kiss. "Maybe that will help you get through the month of February."
