All I Ever Wanted

Lost and Insecure

"My name is Nico" The guy said as he handed me the water

"Thank you, Nico" I said as I took a sip. I calmed down a little, but my eyes are bloodshot and I was still sniffling."I'm Amy"

Nico smiled "I've seen you before, in the hospital" Nico said and sat down in a large blue chair.

"You have?" I asked him

"Yeah, my step sister is in the hospital" Nico said, frowning a little "She's uh, she's kind of sick"

"Oh no" I frowned myself, wiping my eyes "Is she going to be okay?"

"I hope so, I hope so" he muttered "Why are you there?"

"My friend and I got into a car accident about two months ago" I explained "She fell into a coma, and a... the driver of the car died" I whispered.

"No" Nico said, studying me "You're not talking about the accident by the airport"

I nodded "You heard about that?"

"I was there when you guys came in. It was crazy that day"

I nodded again and looked at Nico "Nico, how old are you?"

"What?" Nico asked

"You just look so young."

He blinked a few times and sighed "16, but if anyone asks I'm 18. Poppy, my sister, and I are the only things we have left. Our parent's are gone, and now that she's in the hospital, I'm claiming to be a little older since I'm a minor"

I gave a tigher smile and pulled the boy into a hug "Oh Nico, that's awful. I'm sorry" I whispered. I felt so bad for him.

Just as Nico gently hugged my back, my phone blasted out Orianthi and I jumped back. I took it out and saw Steven's name with a picture of us. I smiled at Nico and held a finger up as I answered.

"Hey Sweetie" I said, clearing my throat,

"Amy, where are you?" Steven's voice sounded worried but relieved.

"I'm okay, I didn't get that far" I laughed a little and looked at Nico before talking to Steven "I'll text you the address and you'll pick me up?"

"Alright baby"

I hung up and started texting Steven when Nico spoke up.

"Boyfriend?"

"Yeah" I said and looked at Nico, who seemed confused "What?"

"Oh, nothing, I just saw the picture on your phone. Looked like the guy from Aerosmith."

I grinned sheepisly "It was"

Nico laughed a little "Wow, really? Weird, they were the only thing Poppy and I could agree on when our parents were dating"

I laughed a little "Really?"

"Yeah, for a while. They were a big part of my sisters life" Nico explained, frowning a little "Poppy has been hurt and walked on and hates the world, but Aerosmith, The Rolling Stones, The Who, Bon Jovi, those guys actually made her seem like she'd be okay again." Nico looked down and sighed heavily.

"Nico.." I hugged the boy again, holding back tears. I don't know why, but I felt a bond with him through our conversation, like he was the little brother I never wanted. I let him go again and handed him my phone "Put your number in here, okay? I'll text you so you have mine. If you ever need anything, let me know, alright?"

Nico stared at me before smiling "Yeah, okay"

I smiled again and waited for Steven
