Nikki's POV

As soon as he's out of sight I shut and lock the door I go back to my room and take a long hot shower, after I get out wrapping a towel around myself and another around my hair. I dry myself off and get dressed in a black tank top and black shorts as I walk out I see Nathan laying on my bed looking at his phone

"Whatcha doing little brother?" I say as I sit next to him

"Nothing just going through instagram" he says looking at me " so what's up with you and pretty boy?"

" what's up with you and fatal attraction?" I say raising an eyebrow

"Bitch I was bored !" He says making me roll my eyes 

"Ah huh, and I don't know what's going on yet I like him and he likes me and right now that's enough" I tell him as I dry my hair

"Ok and what's gonna happen as soon as we're in the clear?" He asks sitting up

I shrug "what do you wanna do?"

"Bro, I wanna get back to work" he sighs

"Well we can't do anything til this case is closed, so for now we have to be on our best behavior, at least while we're here" I tell him

"Fine, I'll behave.... For now" I shake my head laughing as he falls back on my bed dramatically

I lay back against my pillow talking with Nate, after sometime we both end up falling asleep on my bed.  I wake up the next morning to Nathan taking up most of the bed like he used to before we got arrested except it's a little worse now because he's mostly muscle. I sit up and dramatically sigh and fall over his chest making him groan.

" dammit Nik u don't exactly weigh 90 lbs anymore" he said making me gasp

"Are you calling me fat Nathan?" I ask dramatically as a smirk appears on his face

" well if the shoe fits" he says smiling as he covering his eyes with his arm, I grab one of my pillows hitting him in the face as I get up from the bed " hey!!" He shouts sitting up straight. I give him the middle finger as I walk Into the bathroom.

After relieving myself and doing my hair and makeup I come out of the bathroom to find Nate gone, probably to get himself ready for school I put on my black joggers and a white shirt that says California in big bold old English letters and I match it with my white air forces. I grab my backpack and my phone and keys off my dresser and head downstairs.

I walk into the kitchen to find my brother stuffing his face with pancakes, I smirk as I go to grab a water bottle out of the fridge " are you even chewing little brother?"

He flips me off as he continues his assault on the mini stack in front of him " you know if you died right now I'd put 'died by deep throating pancakes' on your tombstone"  I see Nathan trying to contain his laughter with a mouth full of food, after a couple failed attempts he spits out what's in his mouth, I walk around behind him giving him a kiss on the cheek " see you later shaggy" I say laughing

"I hate you bro," he says smiling after a couple coughs " see you in a little bit Scooby" I smile as I make my way to my car.

I get in my car, listening to my engine hum to life as I turn the ignition, plug in my music and start to make my way to this uptight school. What Nathan said last night is still ringing in my head, I know I can't have my cake and eat to and as much as I like Xander I know it won't last deep down I know this is only temporary, I try to push it to the furthest part of my mind only for it to come back stronger. It's always just been Nathan and I, sure we've had our 'conquests' but it was never anything serious they were toys to us but Xander feels different, like maybe there could be a future with him
In it I feel like if I'm careless I'll end up feeling things I don't want to feel and that alone makes me nervous....

As I pull up to the school I immediately see him leaning against his car and as soon as our eyes lock an instant smile forms on his face and without realizing it a smile is on mine as well. I park a few cars away from his, as I'm grabbing my backpack the driver door opens and there he is with the brightest smile holding his hand out.

"Good morning beautiful" just with those 3 little words I'm grinning ear to ear.

"Good mornings handsome" I say grabbing his hand as he helps me out of my car. Before I can get another word out he's pulling me to him kissing me softly as he wraps his arms around me tightly, without thinking about it my arms are wrapping around his neck pulling him closer to me.

"Get a room!" I smile into the kiss as I hear Nate walking past us I flip him off just to hear him laughing as he walks into the building. After a few more moments we pull apart but he doesn't let go of my hand, I shut and lock my car, we turn to walk inside the building I notice there's more then a few people looking our way.

"Better be careful people are gonna start to think your spoken for" I say smiling as I look as him

He smiles back and shrugs " I am spoken for" he says squeezing my hand kissing me on the cheek.

Thoughts from earlier start to invade my mind but this time I'm able to push them away and just enjoy this moment with Xander.
