I walk over to the three of them as they stand there looking at me. "Wayne " my dad starts, "this is my youngest daughter Nikki " he introduces me , patting me on the back like I'm some kind of prized show pig or something and he's showing me off as if he's the worlds proudest dad. " nice to meet you Nikki, your dad here has told me so much about you " he smiles warmly as he extends his hand to shake mine. "You know It's all lies, right? " I say in a smart ass tone turning and smiling at my dad. Wayne let out a small chuckle my response.  I turn my head back to Wayne and shake his hand. "Its nice to meet you too. " I say with a smile. I could see Eddie staring at me out of the corner of my eye the entire time since I entered the room. Still standing there, still with a smirk plastered on his face and his arms crossed. He wasn't wearing his leather jacket I seen him wear at school earlier. I don't even know why he was wearing it today, it's like a thousand degrees. I turn to face Eddie now  "And this is Wayne's nephew" my dad started to introduce Eddie as he uncrossed his arms and put his hand out to shake mine " Eddie " he cuts my dad off introducing his self with the amused smirk of his not leaving his face  I look down at his rings and his bracelet dangling from his wrist as he holds his hand out for me to shake it, before looking back up at him suspiciously. "Nikki" I say taking his hand and shaking it . "Why is he looking at me like that?" I wonder to myself. He looked kinda smug and definitely way to amused by this entire weird situation as though he had one some game I didn't even know we had been playing. "Who wants a beer ?" My dad announced, breaking mine and Eddies competing states at one another as we look over to my dad . " If I ever say no to that question, you had better shoot me Mic" Wayne laughed. "Well then .." my dad laughed "guess we had better move this party over to your place Wayne my man.. cause I ain't got any" he continued, putting a hand on Wayne's shoulder with a grin. I roll my eyes at him, I could tell he thought he was hilarious and luckily for him, so did Wayne. "C'mon kids " my dad nudges me as he walks past me and out the door, followed by Wayne. I look up at Eddie he steps aside and extended his arm out towards the door with a slight bow and a grin " After you " he says. "Mmmhmmm" I with a slight frown but a small smile as I sus him out before I walk out of the trailer.

I followed Wayne and my Dad into Wayne's trailer, with Eddie's following behind me. I stand awkwardly in the living room facing away from the kitchen looking around at all the junky knickknacks and hats on the wall , feeling very weirdered out by the entire situation. Wayne opens the fridge and hands my dad a beer before handing Eddie two beers, Eddie whistles at me to grab my attention, I turn to him as he throws me a beer. I catch the beer and nod at him as a kind of thanks. He smiles at me looking down at his beer and cracking it open. I turn and sit on the couch Eddie then sits on the arm of the opposite end of the couch with one leg on the floor and the other bend up with his foot on the couch. I open my beer and take a sip. " So Nikki ?" Wayne starts to say from over at the counter, before putting a cigarette to his lips and lighting it. I look over at him raising an eyebrow as I wait to answer whatever questions going to ask. " Mic tells me your quite into music?" He asks trying to strike up some kind of conversation. "Uh- yeah, I guess I am?" I shrug as I put my beer to my lips to take another swig. I feel Eddies eyes on me. "You guess?" Wayne asks raising an eyebrow. " Mic yells me you love to sing, and that your quite good at it " he compliments. I hear Eddie choke on his beer next to me as he. I turn my head to see him coughing and laughing as he wipes the beer from his face. I know EXACTLY why he's laughing. I turn my head completely away from him resting my face in my hand in an attempt to cover my mouth as I hid my smile trying not to laugh. "Oh yeah, she's definitely quite the singer " He laughs through a cough as he chimes into the conversation wiping his mouth with his sleeve trying to hide his smile also. " Is she now? " Wayne says with a smile turning his head and giving my dad a look before looking back at Eddie. "Definitely " Eddie grinned and nodded " I heard her sing today, in fact.. the entire school did " he said with his eyes wide with entertainment as he looked over at me. I catch his look, my shoulders are practically shaking now as I try hard not to burst out laughing. Eddie looks at the ground resting his face in his hand also covering his mouth trying not to laugh. "What did you sing?" My dad looks over and asks in a confused tone. Eddies looks up from the ground and took in a deep breath as he moves his hand from his face "Micheal Jackson " he said unable to contain his laughter anymore as he throws his head back laughing hard. I'm about to lose it to, I stand up from the couch quickly. I'm having a cigarette I say heading towards the door in hurry
