Life Changing

Chapter 51

The next morning Emily met Amy for breakfast. They were at a restaurant eating.

"So what do you think of the road?" Emily asked.

"It's different, I like it." "I met a guy last night."

"Well any guy would be an improvement over the last one." "Who is it?"

"His name's Nic Nemeth." "He was very surprised to learn that you have a sister."

"Well saying I have a sister in prison isn't something I like to brag about."

"I understand."

"Do you like him?"

"I know it's crazy, especially at a time like now but I think I do."

"Do you think he likes you?"

"I hope so." "As of now I don't know if anything's gonna happen."

"Just don't hurt him." "Someone in this family already has."

"Did you two used to be a thing?"

"Yeah." "For about two months." "Before I started dating Sam I dated him." "It broke my heart to have to break his." "He's a great guy." "If anything does start just be honest with him from the beginning."

"I'm curious." "If Nic was so great why did you break up with him?"

"I realized there's only one man for me and that's Sam." "I made the right choice." "Sam and I have only had one rough patch but that was all Travis's fault."

"Have I earned any of your trust back yet?"

"You have been doing really well." "I want to trust you." "I want my little sissy back."

"You haven't called me that in years." "I promise I'm not going back to the way I was." "I don't want to be that person again." "Robbing that store that night was the worst mistake I ever made." "I just don't want you to hate me anymore."

"I don't hate you Amy." "I love you."

"I love you too."

Later that night Emily had just gotten to the arena. Nic came up to her.

"Hi Emily." He said.

"Hi Nic."

"Listen, would it be weird if I asked out your sister?"

"Not at all." "You have my full blessing."

"Thank you."

As Amy walked up to the doors of the arena Nic was waiting for her.

"Hi Amy." He said.

"Hi Nic"

"Would you like to go to dinner tonight after the show?"

"I would love to."

"Great."

After the show Amy and Nic went out to dinner. They had a really nice time. Nic walked Amy back to her room.

"Can I see you again?" Nic asked.

"Yes but I don't know when."

"Are you going to be on the road with Emily and Sam?"

"No." "I'm not allowed to."

"Not allowed to?" He said confused.

"I'm on parole and I'm not allowed to leave the state."

He laughed thinking she was joking but quickly realized she wasn't. "You're not kidding."

"No I'm not." "I was young, I was on drugs, my boyfriend and I needed money for our habit." "We decided to rob a liquor store." "We only made it about two miles before the police caught up with us." "I'm done with that life." "I just wanna be normal again." "If you don't wanna see me again, I understand." To her surprise he kissed her.

"I don't care about your past." "That's exactly what it is, the past." "The important thing is you're trying to better yourself now."

"I'm glad you understand."

"We'll figure out a way to see each other." They kissed.
