~~~~~ Nicole ~~~~~
((outfit on side))
I changed into a white laced bustier crop top, high waisted acid wash shorts, black and white vans, and a maroon kimono. I let my hair loose and slightly wavy. I then finished my make up and walked down stairs where Cameron was surprisingly home.
"Hey, how was your first day?"
"It was... Awkward."
He chuckled.
"Did you meet the cast."
My face got red. "I met 2 cast members."
My brother then began teasing. "Did you meet ...'OH MAH GAWD. ROSS LYNCH IS THE HOTTEST GUY ALIVE I WILL MARRY HIM!'
"... Did I really say that?"
He laughed. "You did.. And still do."
"Well... He's not interested in a shy, infamous, fan like me."
Cam smirked as he grabbed the carton of orange juice from the fridge. Just then there was a beep outside.
"Who's that?"
I walked to the window and looked out.
"Ross."
I opened the door.
"No Interest .. Right ?"
I chuckled and gave Cam a hug.
"Bye Cammy!"
I ran down my driveway and walked into Ross' car.
"Hello, thanks for the ride."
"No problem!"
He smiled and began driving off.
"So... Who was that at the door?"
"Huh?"
I gave him a strange look.
"Was that your boyfriend?"
I then started laughing.
"That's my brother!"
"Oh!" He chuckled then cleared his throat. "Do you have a boyfriend?"
I looked at him and shook my head.
"You don't?"
"No.."
"Really? A girl like you.. And no boyfriend?"
"I've... Never had a boyfriend."
"Really?"
"Ye-yeah."
"Wow.."
The car ride then got silent.
"You're not from here are you?"
I looked over at him and noticed he still hasn't taken his eyes off the road.
"No..I'm actually from Rhode Island. The smallest state."
"That's pretty cool."
After that remark we were already at the set. I hopped out of the car and walked with Ross into the studio.
LATER THAT DAY.
After messing with new camera angles, and filming a bit I went over to the snack table and grabbed a cookie. Just then I felt arms wrap around me. I jumped back and saw Ross.
"I didn't mean to scare you!"
He wasn't wrapping his arms around me, he was reaching for a cookie.
I fake giggled and started walking away.
"Nicole!"
I turned around and saw Ross and some girl with short-ish brown hair. Wonder who that could be.
Ross gestured me over.
I sighed and walked over using my bangs to hide my face.
"Hi.." I said quietly under my breath.
"Have you met Laura?"
I shook my head keeping it down. When I heard her awful laugh.
"Not much of a talker are you?"
I looked up to see Laura with the fire in her eyes that I do not miss seeing. And Ross with concern In his face.
"Are you okay, Nikki?" He pushed my bangs out of my face and adjusted my glasses.
"Aw.. The whore has a nick name." Laura smirked.
"Laura." Ross said in shock.
"Oops. Might not want to eat the cookies. Could go to your thighs like the rest of your food goes. It's noticeable."
I felt tears sting my eyes.
I threw the cookie down on the plate. And Ross tried to stop me. He grabbed my arm before I could drop the cookie.
"Ross, I'm fine. I lost my appetite."
I pulled away while dropping the cookie and picked up my bag off the ground. Then walked over to Shelly.
"Can I.. Take my break now?"
I asked as I wipe a single tear from my face.
"Is everything okay."
"Uhm.. Yeah, I just don't feel good."
Shelly put a hand on my shoulder.
"Why don't you take the rest of the day off."
I nodded and thanked him as I got my things together and walked out the door.
I was sitting on a curb when I remembered I was taken here by Ross. I sighed as I got up and began walking to the nearest bus stop. I honestly have no idea where I am or where I'm going. After looking around forever for a bus stop I came across this little place called "Crazy Sk8ers" I decided to go in. I opened the door to the shop and instantly all eyes were on me. The place was filled with skaters buying new things like trucks, decks, wheels, and shoes. Instead of standing around awkwardly I decided to go over to the cruisers section. Just then, I heard a voice behind me.
"May I help you?"
I turn and saw Ross... Why is he everywhere I turn?!
"I'm.. Leaving."
I was just about to walk off when I felt him grab my wrist.
"What happened with you and Laura."
"NOTHING!"
I yelled and people began staring.
Ross let go after hearing me scream like that.
I pushed my way through the store and out the door. I heard my name being called but I didn't bother to turn around. I just kept running and I didn't stop. I didn't know where I was going. I hopped a fence and was still running when I bumped into something hard and fell back on my butt. I brought my knees to my chest and began crying.
"Nikki, are you okay?"
I looked up to see what I had bumped into was Cameron.
"Laura remembers me."
He sat by me and pulled me close to him. I rested my head on his chest and began crying.
"Cam.. Where am I?"
"UCLA." He giggled. "You're on UCLA campus."
I wiped my tears. "Can you take me home?"
"Sure sis, come on."
He got up and I jumped onto his back as he gave me a piggy back ride to his car. We got in and drove away. The second I got home I ran upstairs, threw my clothes off and jumped in the shower. I laid on the floor In the shower and cried I then felt myself slowly drifting off to sleep.
