Draw the Shades and Close the Door (a Vic Fuentes Fanfic)

Chapter 33

~~Nina's P.O.V~~

Vic had been agitated all day. He kept checking that I could still go over to his later and despite saying yes, he still stayed agitated, his incessant asking was getting on my nerves. I wasn't in the beat of moods anyway. George was going off to university in 3 days and despite him being one of the most annoying people I had ever met at times, he was an amazing brother and i would miss him and his stupid comments so much.

He had gotten a place at cambridge cause he was a smart little motherfucker and I was happy for him but it was so far away. I knew he would be back at Christmas and maybe october for a quick visit but it would be so strange without him around to look out for me if I ever got in trouble.

So that had put me in a bad mood and with Vic's nagging I had a bit of a short temper on me.

I was sat by myself at lunch wanting a bit of piece and quiet to think through all my thoughts when I saw Tony approaching. I smiled. I liked talking to Tony he was so understanding and caring so I moved my bag off the seat opposite me so he could sit with me.

'Hey.' He smiled. 'Why are you sat by yourself?'

Tony had changed so so much since we became friends. He was so much more confident but not so much that he had turned into a dick. He was happy and smiled so much more, he talked in lessons and had also made other friends, people that accepted him and he wasn't afraid now to confront people and ask them questions and he wouldn't run off and make excuses if someone new spoke to him.

I looked up at Tony who looked concerned. I took a breath and smiled. 'I was just thinking.' I looked him in the eye.

He looked back but turned his head to the side in a questioning glance. 'About..' he continued.

I wouldn't normally discuss my thoughts with other people but this was Tony.

'Lots of things. Mostly George going off to university in 3 days, I'll miss him so much Tony.' I admitted my smile turning into something a lot more somber.

'Hey it will be fine Nina, don't worry about it.' I was sick to death of hearing the 'it will be fine' but I smiled at Tony none the less, he was just trying to be kind.

'Cheers Tony' I gave him a sad smile.

'What else? You're usually so happy Nina. I mean, you don't have to tell me.' He said genuinely, shaking his head.

I felt comfortable around Tony and even though he was best mates with Vic, I knew I could trust him. I sighed. 'Oh it's nothing really, just Vic getting on my nerves a bit, I know I shouldn't criticise him but he just keeps going on and on about me going over later and it's annoying and I don't even know of I want to, god knows why he is so desperate. I can't stand his incessant nagging over it!' I noticed my voice had started to raise throughout me talking and I few people were string. I hope they didn't know what I was going on about.

Tony looked slightly shocked sat across the table from me. 'Doesn't sound like nothing to me. Maybe when you go round tonight you should just have a chat about it.'

'Who says I'm even going round?' I glared at Tony.

'Look Nina I just think that he really wants you to go around seeing as he has even asking you all day so maybe you should go..' Tony said.

'Why are you so desperate for me to go?! I thought you would understand!' I almost shouted at Tony. We both went silent and looked at the table. I was just about to apologise for raising my voice at him when Vic walked over and sat down next to me. He sensed the silence and awkwardness between Tony and I and so decided to break the silence by saying..guess what?yep? 'Are you still coming over later.' I completely lost it.
