Mrs Mulgrew's daughter || Waterloo Road

Wanderer Returns

**5 weeks later**
Between the school drama and rehearsals it was amazing I found time for myself.
Kenzie. actually. left.
But Brooke North is like Kenzie Calhoun 2.0, without the arson, I hope. But I wouldn't cross boyfriend stealing off my 'How to spot a Kenzie when you see one' list.

The girl is about as subtle as a bomb.

Anyway today is the day of the musical performance, I thought this whole musical thing would be a laugh, turns out Waterloo Road are more serious than I thought about this type of thing.

We're all in the changing rooms getting into first out fits for the show when there's a knock on the door.
"Yes?" I called out the the person of mystery
"Nikki?" They asked
I knew that voice. I turned around.
"Tiffany!" I said running over "how are you?"
"Im ok, I can only stay for the musical, but I wanted to see you before the show." She smiled
"How'd you know about the musical?" I asked
"I missed the place, so I was on the website and I saw the cast list and knew that I had to come." She smiled
"Nikki? Are you over here?" Cassidy asked
"I'm over her Cass," I smiled "Oh, Tiffany, this is Cassidy, Cassidy Tiffany."
"Hi." Tiffany said
"Hey, Nikki, you need to be ready in ten minutes." Cassidy smiled disappearing back into the sea of people changing
"She new?" Tiffany asked
"Yeah, joined a few weeks ago. Her and her strange step sister." I said
"Who's her step sister?" Tiffany said
"Brooke North. Justin's Gabriella." I sighed
"Are you and Justin still together?" Tiffany said
"Yeah, but I have bad news, Kenzie is pregnant with Justin's kid." I said
"What? Where is she? I'll kill her." Tiffany shouted
"She's gone. Apparently she gave the kid up and her mums taken her away, Spain I heard." I muttered
"I'm going to go and get a seat leave you to get ready. But tell Bonnie I'm here and I'll see her later." Tiffany smiled
"Ok, bye," I said and found Bonnie "Tiffany's here."
"What? Impossible her Mum has her on lockdown. There's no way she got out." Bonnie muttered.
"Well she did." I smiled
"How do you feel about this?" Bonnie asked
"Happy, I'm more worried about Justin, who know what happens when he sees her." I mumbled.

*Show time*
I peer through the curtains and spot Tiffany in the third row.
I wish she didn't act like she was here for me, it's obvious she came for Justin.
"You ready?" Cassidy asked
"Yeah, let's go." I smiled and headed backstage

I watched Justin and Brooke sing the opening song and I have to admit they were amazing.
I still don't think he has noticed Tiffany.
Soon enough it's my first scene.
"So Troy, thinking of signing up for the musical?" I asked
"No it's really not my thing." Justin muttered
"I'm sure you have a great voice but me and Ryan have starred leads in fifteen musicals, but we welcome new comers for smaller roles." I smiled

*some scenes later*
"Come on let's do this." Justin smiled
"Ok." Brooke smiled
*song*
"Raising til' it lifts us up, so everyone can see." Brooke sang
"That we're breaking..." Justin started but I could see his eyes had rested on Tiffany "Tiff..."
"Psssst Justin carry on." Cassidy hissed
"Where was I? Oh yeah," Justin laughed "we're breaking free."

*After the show*
"Nikki?" Justin shouted "You in here?"
"Yeah." I said
"Did you know about Tiffany?" He asked
"No, yes, maybe." I said
"Why didn't you tell me?" He said
"I don't know, I thought she might be staying for good and I freaked out." I muttered
"She isn't coming back and I wouldn't leave you." He whispered pulling me into a hug.
"Can we go and say goodbye?" I asked
"Yeah come one let's go." He smiled holding my hand.

We found Tiffany about to get into her taxi and ran over to her.
"Goodbye Tiff." I smiled
"Bye Nikki, I'll come again." She smiled
"See you soon Tiffany." Justin said
"You too Justin." Tiffany said getting into the taxi and waving as she disappeared into the world outside school.
