~Nini Salazar-Roberts~

Nini runs faster than she has ever had, she was chasing after Ej down the school halls.

"Ej, wait!" "I tried, I really did, I tried ignoring the fact that you and him were together at one point, I really hoped you were over him-" "I am, we jus-" "No, I wanted to believe that you and him had no chance anymore, then I go and see you two on top of each other!"

"I tripped and fell, it's not like I would fall on purpose!" Nini shouted, and she was thankful the hallways were empty. "He can't just come into our lives and act like your his, your supposed to be mine!". "Okay first of all, you don't own me, so stop acting like I'm an object because I'm not, and second, I've been friends with Ricky basically all my life and yes we may not talk to each other as much since our break up but that doesn't mean we can't be friends!" "But Nini, when it comes to us boys we want whats ours and seeing our girlfriends with other boys kinda hurts." "I'm allowed to be friends with boys, it's not like i'm gonna handcuff them to a locker and kiss them!" Nini continues, "And like I said, stop treating me like I'm an object because i'm not!"

Nini gave up on Ej and walked back to the practice room, and then Ej realized how much he messed up.

⚡️

Nini entered the practice room and noticed how everyone was staring at her, but she turns and sees Ricky, she smiled. Kourtney quickly walks over and pulls Nini too the side.

"What happened?" Kourtney and asked, "I don't wanna talk about it at the moment..." Kourtney nods, Miss Jenn walks in. "Why so quiet, get to work!"

Everyone shuffled around the room either going over lines, practicing choreography, or working on the props.

"Okay, I need my wonderful Gabriella and Troy to stand in the middle!" Miss Jenn says and Nini and Ricky both slowly walk towards the middle.

"What are you guys, turtles?" Carlos said.

"Okay now we will be starting with Gabriella and Troy act 1!" "Is that the one where their singing or talking to each other?" Red asks.

Miss Jenn sighs, and looks at us basically asking which one we would be more comfortable with at the moment. "The firework scene, please." Nini answers for them both.

"And action!" Red shouts and Carlos gives him a look, "What, I've always wanted to do that..."

Ricky begins, "But seriously you have an amazing voice, you a singer right?" "At least he's remembering his lines." Nini thought. "Just church choir is all, I tried a solo and nearly fainted." "Really, why's that?" "I took a look at all the people staring at me and next thing I knew I was staring at the ceiling, end of solo career." "Well with the way you sang tonight, that's pretty hard to believe." "Well that was the first time I've done something like that, I mean it was so cool!" "I know, completely." "Well you sounded like you've done a lot of singing!" "Yeah my shower head is very impressive..." Nini laughs like she was suppose to do. 

Everyone counted down from 10 and big red makes weird firework noises. Ricky and Nini turn their heads to look at one another and Nini could feel her getting lost in his eyes. "I guess I better go find my mom and wish her a happy new year..." "Yeah me too, I mean not your mom, my mom...and dad." 

Nini turns her head slightly to see Ej standing at the door and she could feel her eyes water thinking about their argument. Ricky noticed and tried to continue, "Uh, I'll call you, I'll call you tomorrow!" Nini whispers a thank you. "Yeah!" They pull out their phones, taking a photo. Nini didn't actually take the photo but she had no idea Ricky did. "You too!" " Oh, okay." They swap phones. 

Nini smiles seeing how Ricky took a photo of her when Miss Jenn said they didn't have too. "Here you go!" Nini smiles while turning around to walk away. "Well just so you know, singing with you was the most fun I've had on this entire vacation, so um...where do you live?" Ricky turns his head to see no Nini of course. He looks back at his phone and said, "Gabriella.." 

Everyone then began to clap, making Nini and Ricky both turn red. "That was great, good jo-" "Did they ever thank him?" Red asks, "What?" "You know, the guy who pulls them onto the stage, he says you might thank him one day, did they?" "I mean, he's right..." Ricky says and it was quiet for a moment. Then the group began to laugh, "Okay, okay, Gina and Carlos start to work on Stick to the Status Quo while Troy and Gabriella take a 5!" 

⚡️

"Nini, wait up!" Nini turns around and sees Ricky running towards her. "Yeah, what's up?" "I just wanted to say good job.." Nini whispered a thanks. "Uh, about earlier, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to cause problems between you and Ej." Ricky said, "Don't worry, it's not your fault, he said some things and that is his fault." "Well maybe we ca-" "Nini, come on!" 

They both turned their heads and see Kourtney waving at them. "I'm coming, what were you saying Ricky?" "Never mind, it doesn't matter..." Nini nods, walking away and Ricky sighs. 

"Maybe next time..." Ricky says to himself.

K Speaks!
