Wade drove for a few more minutes before Blake made a stop. We drove over a little bridge an stopped right in he middle of a secluded area
I pushed Dalton out of the car eager to stretch my legs with Nick laughing behind me an Dalton groaning from his fall!
As we stretched I hear Nick," your car sucks dude" before slamming the door shut.
I made comfortable aside Nick an saw Carly give him a look. Nick walked towards the front of the car with me till Paige called me an Carly.
I kissed Nick before heading to the girls
"Well?", I hear Carly ask after grabbing a folding chair as did I, while Paige held her purse.
"I couldn't. There's no point in freaking him out right now", Paige replies
"As apposed to when you find out your pregnant?",
"Paige I'm not one to point it out, but it's safer if you tell him sooner rather than later. That way he'll have some time to wrap it around that big head of his", I say trying to reason with her
"Guys, I'm not sure okay? He's been looking forward to this stupid game for months", Paige said," I don't want to ruin it by starting a fight".
I threw the chair on the ground, all of a sudden feeling frustrated. Damn it I took my meds! I looked up when Carly's words caught my attention
"Paige he's not going to marry you"
"Whoa Carly seriously, what she means to say Paige is that they won't approve of this". I gave Carly a look
"Who says I wanted to get married. Besides I've been late before", which is true I literally laughed the way she freaked out.
"When I know for sure I'll talk to him, okay?" In all honesty I think that was fair
Carly an Paige decided to sit down, while I just sat by Blake's front tire
"Emily, come over here an join us", Paige yelled out. I just shook my head an looked up at the sky feeling at ease. The stars were sparkling.
I see that the guys were done with everything, Blake pulled out a football. They began to play a game!
"Pass it! Pass it!", Blake and Wade then began to throw it an play. I see Dalton intercept.
" you don't wanna... too slow, too slow!" Blake threw the football at Wade who missed and it went over to him.
He was just about to say touchdown when the hall landed by Nicks feet
Wade was expecting Nick to pass the ball back to his outstretched hand but Nick hadn't moved an inch.
I stood up and made my way to the football by Nicks feet
"Don't hurt yourself babygirl", Dalton yelled. I smiled an tossed the football to Blake with such force, that caused them to look at me with shock. Carly and Paige laughing an cheering
"Damn Emily where the hell did you learn to throw like that?", Nick looked at me with a soft smile but I shrugged," Nick taught me very well", I said standing next to Nick who rubbed my thigh
"Nick do you want to take a walk?", he ignored me an looked to see Carly an Wade
"Wade, Help Dalton,please?", She said to him. Wade anxiously walked away
"Bye Wade", Nick told him waving! I could faintly hear Wade call Nick an 'asshole'. Carly turned to Nick with a not so happy expression. Another argument was coming an this time I'm not planning on getting involved. Usually when they have arguments Nick would leave me on the side to yell at Carly whenever he could. I'm mostly involved when one of the other brings my name into it!
I sat down in Nicks chair and held the jacket that Nick got for me on my nineteenth Birthday close to my body. I put my hood up an listened as the drama began
" you know what? You can be a prick to me that's fine, but he didn't do anything to you".
" so you admit that you did something", I drank my soda since I'm not allowed to drink any alcohol, doctors orders which I didn't mind.
"I admit, according to you, I did something sure".
"You dimed me out!"
"I did not dime you out. When the sheriffs came to the house and asked where you got the car, I said I didn't know", Carl tried to explain to him and that ladies and gents, right there, was the main reason Nick and Carly's bond drifted off.
"I didn't even know it was stolen. You're blaming that on me?"
"You could have covered for me huh? Emily did, though I never wanted her in that position", I smile at what Nick says. I was under a lot of pressure and I loved Nick so much that it was the least I could do for him, even the whole stealing thing wasn't Nicks fault.
"You get caught stealing, it's my fault. You resist arrest, it's the cops fault", I shook my head at how Carly is drilling him," he took a swing at me!"
"Get kicked off the football team, it's the coaches fault. Mom and dad kick you out of the house, it's there fault. Can't keep a job for more than two weeks, it's every managers fault." I literally just tripped out that she listed all bad things that happened with him in the past year.
It stresses him out an how I know that is every time Nick comes over to my apartment, he starts yelling an slamming things, so pissed with the fights between family, working, football, that I accidentally pulled him away from him yelling that he hit me, which was the first time out of our whole relationship, that he ever did that. He was so shocked with what he did that he left not speaking to me for a week. A horrible week without him was painful.
After that week, it was one bad rainy night when he knocked on my door drunk, apologizing for what he did. We got through it together an I'll always love him no matter what!
"I'm surrounded by idiots", Nick said which brought me back to reality. " hey I'm no idiot!" I said. Nick looks at me an smiles, then turned back to Carly.
"So why did you come? To piss me off?", Carly asked
"Don't you get it? Your the good twin, I'm the evil one", he said taking a sip of his beer. He turned around to walk back to me when Carly spoke up
"Grow up, your so afraid to take things seriously. I don't even know why Emily stayed with you after you hit her" I was in complete shock she brought that up. Nick had a pained look on his face then anger evident in his eyes
"Emily has nothing to do with this, but you wanna go there Carly okay. As afraid to Wade is leaving good old Gainesville", at that point Nick went it was wrong but when you mention that to Nick he'll explode
" New York City, well, I hear they got buildings as tall as the sky", he was almost at that breaking point where he might yell or snap badly.
"Okay", She said walking away with tears in her eyes. Nick turned to me, kissed my forehead an helped me up to sit on his lap," she took it a bit too far with bringing up what happened but the whole Wade thing babe really", I said with my hand over his chest where his heart is.
"I know Emily.... but it wasn't right?", He said looking down at me.
"Sometimes I wonder why I put up with you; you knucklehead", I said kissing him on the lips
"Because you love me so much not to", He caressed my face an kissed me deeply. I smiled an nod my head into his kiss, deepening it
There was a strong breeze that blew this awful smell along with it. I gagged pulling away from Nick as the others stopped playing an asked what the smell was.
Nick decided to get some fun," Dalton, did you crap your pants again", i laughed an saw Dalton actually smell himself. "No I don't know. Maybe, I mean I'm wearing my work clothes, so" I totally laughed harder.
Wade decided to take a look, taking a flashlight An walked a little more towards the tree, flashing his light at them.
"Ugh, it's horrible", Carly said while swatting her hand in front of her face.
"Something dead out there", Wade said
" I may agree with him, big time", I said, but my voice cam out muffled since it was hidden in Nicks Vest jacket as his was in my hair, definitely smelling my strawberry shampoo
"No somethings dead right here", Blake said," we need to drink it back to life. Bless me dawg", he told Nick who moved me to the side a bit leaning over an grabbing a beer out of the cooler an tossed it at Blake who caught it with one hand.
Let the party begin!
