HSMTMTS: Rini One Shots|Fast Updates

Ch. 1: Fireworks

Ricky Bowen:
Have you ever wanted to become part of a very corny cliche but when one appears right in front of you, you become terrified? Well that's the position I'm in right now. I'm in love with my best friend and I'm positive she doesn't feel the same way. She could get any guy she wants. Why would she choose me?

       Nina Salazar-Roberts:
It's not like I chose to fall in love with my best friend Ricky. It just happened suddenly, like most cliches do. But I can't act on something that could possibly push him out of my life forever. Hiding my feelings hurts but him no longer being a part of my life would hurt even more.

Ricky:
So. Homecoming is coming up! Has anyone asked you yet? They should know they have to ask me permission first seeing as I'm your best friend...

Nini:
I suppose since you're my best friend, who is verryyy protective may I add, I will tell you that this guy Jared asked me and I said yes. I would feel bad rejecting him and I guess we have some things in common like guitar playing. I just guess I hoped a different person would ask me...

Ricky:
Someone asked her already??? This Jared guy acted fast. And here I thought I'd face my fears and make a move.
W-who did you want to ask you?
Really Ricky??? Now is not the time to stutter!

Nina:
Wel-
Before I could confess, I was cut off by the doorbell ringing. Maybe this was a sign that we should remain best friends.

1 Week later: Homecoming!
Ricky:
I couldn't bring myself to ask any other girl to homecoming. Nini was the only girl I could ever imagine going with. She's the only girl that ever crosses my mind and takes up my thoughts. It would almost feel like betraying her if I went with someone else. But here I am witnessing Big Red trying to create his own dance moves.

Nini:
Usually when a girl accepts an invitation to homecoming, she anticipates her date would be by her side most of the night. Wrong. The date is instead talking up other girls right in front of me. Why did I say yes again? Oh yeah. To try and forget the fact I'm in love with my childhood best friend.

Ricky:
Why is she sitting alone? I'm gonna walk up to her.
Did you break a leg or something? Because I know that would be the only thing stopping you from having a fun night.

Nini:
More like my date just wanted a girl to help his rep so he could make moves on other girls. And the fact you haven't come up to me all night.

Ricky:
That shouldn't be stopping you from having a good time, guys never got to you before.

Nini:
That was before I fell in love with you.
Sometimes things get to me, Richard.

Ricky:
I rather get you on the dance floor, c'mon! I take her hand and bring her towards the dance floor. This is gonna be the night where either everything goes right or it all goes terribly.

Nini:
Right when our fingers touched I felt the electricity. I'm in trouble, aren't I?

Ricky:
You look so beautiful tonight. You look so beautiful always, Nini. I said as I looked deeply into her eyes, trying to read her.

Nini:
Maybe because I got played by Jared he's just being extra nice. This doesn't mean anything and I can't get my hopes up. Aw thanks bestieee, I wouldn't look as good if I didn't have a cute boy with curls dancing with me. Best friends or not, I had to play with a few of his curls.

Ricky:
"Bestie"? Ouch. You do it all on your own, Nini. It's always been you. I said to her, looking directly in her eyes, as she looked into mine. I put some stray hair behind her ear. I feel my heart racing and my hands sweating. It's now or never. I place my hand on her neck and lean in. I nearly chicken out but then I feel my lips slightly brushing hers. I back up and look into her eyes, I can see she is nervous. I slowly lean back in and touch my lips to hers. From then on all I saw was fireworks.

Nini:
Fireworks.
