Imagination (Christian Collins fanfiction)

Chapter 5

I actually did eventually fall asleep, and now I'm being woken up by someone rubbing my shoulder.

"Nikki we landed..." Christian whispered. I sat up and he smiled. "How long was the flight?" I asked.

"About 7 hours." He told me and my eyes widened. "I slept the whole time?!" He nodded. Wow I slept a lot.

We got off the plane and he had his arm around my shoulders. Ashton was already outside the plane smiling until she saw Christian's arm around me.

He saw her and quickly pulled his arm back. I looked at him confused because he always put his arm around me.

He gave me an I'll-explain-later-look and I nodded. We walked to Ashton and she grabbed Christian's hand and intertwined their fingers.

Christian smiled at her. He really likes her, doesn't he? I smiled because my best friend is happy.

With a girl.

That's not me.

My mood changed and I ran off to the baggage claim and found my bag. I sat down and waited for Christian and Ashton.

They finally found me and got their bags. There was a limo outside waiting for us and some other people. When we got to the limo, people were already in there.

I recognized some people, but they all recognized me and Chris. I guess Christian knew most of them already do I kind of just sat there awkwardly next to Ashton.

She glared at me from the corner of her eye. I shrugged it off and glanced at Christian, but she kicked my leg.

"Ow!" I yelped and she smiled. Everyone looked at me and I blushed. I couldn't say 'Oh yeah my best friend's girlfriend kicked me' so I just sat there.

"What's wrong, are you okay?" Chris asked worriedly and I nodded. It hurt like crap, did she have spiked on her shoe or something?!

"She's not okay," the kid across from me, who I think was Sam Pottorff, told Christian, "The blonde one kicked her."

My eyes widened. Crapcrapcrapcrap. "Ashton! Did you kick her?!" Chris yelled and wrapped his arms around me. I tensed up because she already didn't like me.

"What? No! I would never kick her." She pouted.

Christian's grip loosened, but he was still holding me. "Yes she did, Nicole give me your leg." Sam said and I looked at him like he was crazy.

"Just give me your leg."

I slowly lifted my leg and he grabbed it and rolled up my pant leg, good thing I shaved...

"See? She's bruised. You can't bruise yourself." Oh... Was it that bad? I covered my face and Christian held me closer. "Ashton why would you do that?" Chris asked, obviously mad.

"I was- she- ummm... She was provoking me and telling me she would take you from me."

"WHAT?!" Sam and I yelled in unison. "Chris she didn't say a word. Don't believe Ashton." Sam said. Chris still had a firm grip on me.

"You know we have security camera's?" The driver said. He pushed some buttons and a screen lowered and played everything.

"Ashton why would you lie about that?!"

"Because you're all over her!"

"So? She's my best friend and if you want to date me you have to deal with it." He said.

Oh frick my anxiety is so high right now. I started crying quietly in to my hands.

"Oh my gosh she's such an attention seeker!" Ashton yelled, which made me cry more because I'm not. I hate when a lot of people pay attention to me, it makes me nervous.

"Ashton just stop, she hates attention."

Ashton scoffed and shut up. Finally...

I stopped crying and just sat with Christian. Well that was embarrassing...

Ashton tapped my leg and I tensed up. I looked at her and she smiled weakly, "I'm really sorry, I didn't mean to embarrass you and make you have an anxiety attack." I smiled weakly.

"Are we good now?" She asked. I hesitated to answer before nodding, "We're good." I said and we hugged.

"Awww my girls made up." Christian smiled. Ashton and I burst in to laughter which made Chris laugh which made everyone else laugh.

We finally got to the hotel and a bunch of us had to share rooms. I was sharing a room with Christian, but Ashton was staying there also. Yay, note the sarcasm.

We walked to the room and I dropped my stuff and jumped on one of the beds. "I call this one."

"Guess we'll take this one." Ashton said and dragged Chris to the other one. We? As in... Together?

I should've known we would eventually grow up and I would have a boyfriend and he would have a girlfriend... But I kind of started hoping it would be us.

"You okay Nikki?" Chris was kneeling in front of me now, "Oh, yeah. Yeah I'm fine." I said.

"I'm gonna go for a walk." I said and grabbed my phone and walked outside.
