vanessa continues to sob, gingerly holding her hand as nick rubbed her back and tried to calm her down.

"vanessa?!" timmy ran to her, making nick back away, "babygirl, what's wrong?"

he fell to his knees next to her and pulled her into his lap. he looked at her hands and winced.

"it's not that bad," he cooed, "shh, baby."

nick had stood up and stood next to tatiana.

"you're so sweet." she said, "going to help her, sweetheart."

she kissed his head but nick didn't respond, he just looked at her and timmy.

"is she okay?" nick asked timmy.

"she'll be fine." tc said shortly, "we're going to the emergency room."

"take my car." tatiana said, shuffling through her purse to find them.

"thanks." timmy said once she handed them to him.

he helped her up and they walked together.

"I'll help you walk her out." nick said, taking a step to her.

"I got her." zach cut in, knowing that it would make vanessa upset if nick helped her. he held vanessa's waist to keep her from wobbling from pain.

once they got to tatiana's black car, he helped her in the passenger seat.

"stay safe," zach said as he closed the car door.

"okay." vanessa whispered, gently holding her hand in her lap.

timmy drove through the busy streets.

"it hurts." vanessa cried out.

"baby, I know." timmy said, "you know what I don't know?"

"what?"

"how you could dislocate your fingers on a bowling ball."

"stop." vanessa laughed but the movement send pain shooting up her hand and making tears come up in. her eyes again.

"sorry!" timmy laughed, "this is so sad, you can't give me anymore hand jobs."

"I have two hands." van joked back.

"no, real shit." timmy's voice was suddenly very serious, "why the fuck does nick think it's okay to hold you?"

"tc-" vanessa tried to stop his words

"nah, van, listen. how pathetic is that? you haven't even talked to him in like weeks. y'all only kissed two times, and yet, he still wants you."

"timmy."

"that's so ridiculous. he doesn't get the hint. you were mine first." he continued  to rant.

"nick and I have kissed more than two times." vanessa said before she could regret it.

"and he has tatiana," he continued, "what did you say?" he said after he registered her words.

"nick kissed me. on the plane."
