nikki misery : save myself from me

Like A Virgin

[Nikki's POV] 

I was in shock. 

She loved me? WOAH. 

WAIT, THE GIRL THAT I LOVE, LOVES ME? 

OH MY GOD. 

"Nikki?" Ashley said to me mid freak out. 

"Uh-huh?" 

"You're freaking out, aren't you?" 

"Ashley, she said she loves me. Obviously, along with the other bad things there. But, she loves me? Bitch, she better wake up soon so I can talk to her about it-" I was interrupted by my phone ringing. 

It said it was Damien. 

I picked it up and answered it. 

" Hello? "

" Nikki, you and Ashley have to come back immediately. The doctor says she's regained consciousness."

"WAIT WHAT?" I screamed.

Ashley jumped. "What's wrong?" She said loudly but in a soothing tone. 

"She's awake," I informed her. "We'll be there in five." I hung up the phone. 

We rushed to the hospital and ran to find Damien. 

We found Damien, Steven and Nick outside Riots room and no one else was in sight. 

"Is she awake? Where's everyone else?" 

"Calm Nikki, breathe bro. She's awake, the others are in seeing her." Nick told me, reassuringly. 

I nodded. "Is there a visitor limit?" 

"No, we were waiting for you." Damien chimed in. 

"Great!" Ashley said. 

We entered the room to find the pale, yet so beautiful woman sitting up on the bed. 

Wow.. 

She looked toward the door and waved at us. She noticed me and smiled, and pointed to the chair. 

Still not talking, huh?  We'll see about that. 

"Sorry?" I questioned. 

"Sit." Courtney responded. 

She scared me so I went and sat down beside Riot- Friday. 

Friday, her name is Friday. 

Like the day, you handicap. 

Next thing you know I'm gonna be calling her Wednesday. 

She held my hand as she listened to the others talk about what happened whilst she was gone. 

After about an hour of everyone talking nonstop, Nick changed the topic. 

"Yo, I'm pretty hungry guys. Can we go get something to eat?" 

"Like some dick?" I joked.

"I mean, depends where we get it." He said and winked at me and Steven.

Everyone laughed and Steven blushed.

Oh gosh, I know what this means.

Nick's gay. 

Nick asked everyone else if they were hungry, they all said yes other than Friday.

Then, he turned to me. 

I declined the food offer and said I'll stay back with Friday.

She looked in shock when I said her real name and then gave her mother a dirty look.

I stifled a small chuckle, trying not to be noticeable.

Courtney noticed.

"Alright well, we'll be back soon enough." Ashley said as they gathered their coats, jackets and small belongings.

"No worries, take your time." I responded.

As they all said goodbye and hugged Friday, a nurse came in and checked on her.

They left and the nurse was there for what felt like forever. 

I just wanted to talk to her and get an explanation but noooooo.

She only communicated to the nurse in whispers but still I couldn't hear her.

The nurse finally left us alone and closed the door.

"You want an explanation, don't you?" I heard a soft yet hoarse voice.

I turned to Friday.

"Yes, I would very much. Also, I don't wanna make anything more awkward but Ashley found your diary and showed me and-" I informed her, but I was interrupted. 

"Oh gosh, oh gosh, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it please don't hate me." She freaked out, went red and covered her face with the blanket.

"I mean I was gonna say I felt the same but it'd be awkward now if I said that, wouldn't it?"

"W-wait.. You feel the same?" She said quietly as she removed the blanket from her face. 

"Yeah, duh. Isn't it obvious?"

"No!"

"Jeez, I can't believe the girl I love is that blind. Everyone else teases me non stop about it." 

She giggled quietly. 

Holy shit that's adorable. 

"Seriously? They do the same to me." 

"You poor baby," I responded jokingly.

"Call me baby again." 

OH, SHE'S FLIRTING NOW???

I'M INTO THIS SHIT.

LET'S GO BOYS!

"As much as I know you'd love to flirt with me, a masterpiece, but we need to discuss the topic at hand. Why are you only talking to me and not like Steven or something?"

"Um.. I don't know. I wanted to talk to you because I need to explain a lot of things to you and I know you wanna help me and I'm sorry you had to see me the way you did and the way I currently am."

"Okay, Riot- Friday, sorry. Listen to me, I love you not just because how you look, because of your personality, and how you can write such beautiful lyrics and melodies that help yourself and others through endless amounts of pain. Even though I have only known you a short time, and I've legit only hear you speak now, I know that you're really kind, caring and smart and you have a strong voice and a strong opinion and others need to hear it." 

She was flabbergasted it seemed and she went a little red once again. 

"Fuck it." I said and leaned closer to her.

I put my hands on her cheeks. (face cheeks for u pervs)

"I love you, Friday." I whispered to her.

I kissed her.

I know it's cringy and taboo, but legitimate sparks flew. 

She put her hands in my hair as she kissed me back. 

She pulled away for a slight second. 

"I love you too, Nikki." She whispered back to me and leaned in and kissed me again.

And things escalated from there..
