When The Lights Go Down

Nick's Girl

Bailey's Inner Monologue

It seems like every time I turn around I see Jake...is he following me or something? He looks so angry too, I am trying to not let it bother me but yet it does....why do I even care what he thinks, especially since the more time I spend with Sam the more I start to realize just how bad Jake treated me. I'm sure I would be enjoying this time with Sam more if I could get my mind off of Jake.

*B's thoughts are suddenly cut off when something catches her eye*

(Bailey)OOOOOOOOOOH!!!!! I want it!

(Nick) what?

*B runs over to a game booth and points to a Jonas Brothers tee shirt that says "Nick's Girl" on the front*

(Nick) *chuckles* you are kidding right? You could get an actual JB shirt anytime you wanted...instead of a cheapo carnie made one

(Bailey) I'm not kiddin I NEED that shirt

*Between Nick and Sam and a total of $12 towards an obviously rigged game, B had her shirt*

(Bailey) YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!

(Nick) you are such a dork I cannot believe we just spent $12 on a shirt that probably cost them $2 to make.

(Bailey) totally worth it *smiles*

(Joe) my favorite part was the fact that the guy had no idea who you were and is sitting there charging you $12 for a shirt...about you, classic

*for the first time of the night, surprisingly, the first group of giggling girls walk up to Nick, they looked to be about 10 years old both holding a carnie JB tee with the boys faces on them*

(Little girl #1) um, excuse me w-would you sign my shirt *tears forming in her eyes*

(Nick) sure

*Nick smiles and takes her shirt and the sharpie she is holding and signs it, she then takes it to Joe for him to sign...then they repeat the same on her friends shirt, both girls steal a hug from the boys before running off squealing*

(Sam) Dude, you just made her cry *laughs*

(Joe) that's the usual response when they see Nick....his face makes me want to cry too

(Nick) ha ha Joe is so funny, apparently not as cute as me, but funny...*sarcastic*

*The Night went on about the same, more groups of giggling girls and more rigged games, soon the group was down to just B, Nick and Sam...Joe and Ronnie had taken off to spend some time alone*

(Nick) *sighs* third wheel

(Bailey) shut up

(Nick) I knew this would happen you should have let me stay home then your date could have been a two-some instead of a threesome

(Bailey) Hush, this isn't a date I told you, we are just friends, besides I miss us just getting to hang out, so I wanted you to come.

(Nick) I'm going to go get a drink...u want anything?

(Bailey) nope I'm good

*Nick heads off to get a drink and Sam grabs the hand that Nick discarded and pulls B closer to him*

(Sam) so, what if I said, I didn't want to be friends?

(Bailey) *juts her lip out* why is that

(Sam) because I like you...and you like me

(Bailey) *teasing* I do?

(Sam) *smirks* ok fine...I like you and apparently you feel nothing

(Bailey) well, I wouldn't say that either *smirks*

(Sam) so you do like me...

(Bailey) maybe...

*Sam raises an eyebrow and gives an irresistible smile*

(Bailey) ok a little but just not sure I can be more than friends with anyone right now. Jake and I just broke up. I'm still...broken.

(Sam) hrmmm...maybe I could persuade you in some way

*Sam leans in and softly kisses B, pulling her closer and dropping her hand only to bring in into her hair cupping the side of her face, deepening the kiss*
