Chapter 32:
Jessica's POV:
I paced my room thinking of ways to ask Nick out. I was so worried. What if he said no? Or laughs at me?
"Don't worry so much. He obviously likes you." Sami said, sitting on my bed and brainstorming ideas with me.
"But he pulled away when I tried to Kiss him." I retaliated.
"But he stayed with you all night when AJ left. A guy wouldn't do that for a girl if he doesn't like her." She pointed out.
"But what if he changed his mind? What if he doesn't like me anymore?" I slumped onto my bed next to Sami. "I'm just freaking out because I've been rejected before, and that is the worst feeling.
Sami turned to me and grabbed my shoulders. "Stop and take a deep breath." I did as I was told. "Now go out there and get your guy.
I walked over to my door, took another deep breath before opening the door, and walked out.
I was going to do this. I was not going to chicken out.
I went into the living room, but couldn't find Nick. I checked the kitchen and outside too, but saw no sign of him. I went back into the living room and saw Matt on his laptop on the couch.
"Hey Matt, do you know where your brother is?" I asked him.
"Yeah. I think he's in his room." Matt answered me.
"Thanks." I practically ran to Nick's room and nicked on his door.
"Who is it?" Nick called from inside.
"Jessica." I said. "Can I come in? I want to talk to you about something."
"Yeah, sure." I opened the door, walked in, and looked around. I've never been in Nick's room before, and it looked exactly how I'd imagine it. There were Batman, Harry Potter, and My Little Pony decorations everywhere. There were also signed posters from each of StarKid's performances.
"Nice room." I said as I shut the door.
"Thanks." Nick replied, sitting in front of his computer, but his chair turned towards me.
"Whatcha doin?" I asked, looking over his shoulder at the computer. A Word document was open, but blank.
"Trying to write act 2 of Twisted, but as you can see, its not going very well."
"Writer's block?" Nick nodded. "Every writer's worst nightmare."
"Maybe you can help me." Nick said. I pulled up a chair and sat next to Nick.
"Why do you have two chairs in your room?" I asked.
"Because Matt is normally in here helping me, but he gave up a while ago. I don't give up so easily." Nick explained.
"So where did act one end?"
