Classic ~ Nick Austin (COMPLETE)

34. Jealous?

"I'm sorry, the girl you're what?" Josh's voice sounded as I glanced from Nick to him.
"Uh, Nick I think you should go home." I instructed, Nick's brow furrowing as Josh shook his head.
"Nuh, uh, nope. You guys both have to stay and explain what the fuck is going on." Josh insisted, joining the two of us in the kitchen.
"And you have to explain some shit to me." Nick replied.
"Fuck fine. One at a time though, and Nick's happened first so... I didn't know he was going to be there I swear, he told me that he missed me and he wasn't happy with the chick that he knocked up. And I told him to get fucked. Okay?" I explained, Nick nodding slowly.
"Okay and what about my explanation?" Josh asked, forcing our attention to him.
"Yes, Nick and I have been seeing each other." I said, making Josh's face tense up.
"For how long?" He whispered, staring straight at Nick.
"Uh, a couple of months now." Nick replied, his hand holding onto mine.
"So you've been lying to me this whole time?" Josh asked again, now looking at me.
"Of course, I mean, I know your rules. I know that if I ever asked you, you'd say no." I responded his brow burrowing again.
"And you don't think I'd have a reason to say no? I know these types of guys. I mean, you heard about Griff and Dixie, and Charli and Chase, and even Bryce and Addison, almost all of the times that they've broken up it's been because of Bryce." Josh insisted, "Just at least tell me you haven't slept together yet."
"Well..." I started but he shook his head, cleaning his eyes as his hands adjusted his hair, I knew this as a habit of his when he gets mad. "Josh please, I'm a big girl. I know he won't hurt me the same way Tommy did, and if I could get over that than I can get over whatever he ends up throwing at me."
"I know you will, but I don't want to have to kill one of my best friends if he breaks your heart." Josh replied, his glare shifting to Nick.
"That's okay, I'll do it for you." Bryce smiled, walking into the room, seeming to relax Josh.
"I'm sure you will Bryce. So we good or what?" I asked, giving Josh a hug.
"You better not fucking hurt her, Bear-Boy." Josh smirked, returning my hug.
"I won't. I promise." Nick replied, his eyes fixed on me.
"Then we good." Josh smiled down at me, kissing the top of my head. "I love you lil sis."
"I love you two Joshy." I smiled back up at him.
"Now go get some sleep." He laughed.

I took my pills, while Josh and Bryce walked back into living room. Once taken, I turned back to Nick.
"You staying the night?" I asked, smiling softly.
"I have no reason not to." He smiled back, his hand holding onto mine as I lead him up to my room. I changed into my pyjamas as my head became progressively more clouded. I brushed my teeth and climbed into bed, resting my head on Nick's shoulder as he wrapped his arms around my waist. "Goodnight bub."
"Goodnight."

I woke up the next morning at 7:30, my recording session started at 10, so I decided to climb out of bed and take a shower. I applied my makeup and changed into some sweatpants and a tank top, leaving Nick to sleep while I headed downstairs. I made myself some cereal, and a coffee before walking outside to eat outside.
"Morning." Blake smiled as he walked out with his breakfast.
"Hey, how'd you sleep?" I replied, him sitting across from me.
"Good, heard you guys came out to Josh. Yikes." He laughed and I nodded.
"Yeah and it wasn't by choice." I replied, rolling my eyes.
"But at least now he knows, you can talk to your manager about coming out publicly." He offered and I nodded slightly.
"Yeah, I guess you're right." I replied, smiling back at him as the door opened again.
"Good morning guys." Dixie smiled as she walked over to us, Nick following along behind her.
"Morning." I smiled back, Nick sat down next to me, wrapping his arm around my shoulder.
"How are you guys?" Nick asked the group and they responded, as I felt his fingers lightly rub up and down my arm. 
"Hey, Hypes having a party tonight. You guys are coming, right?" Dixie asked and Blake nodded.
"I'll check with Amelie, but it sounds like fun." He responded and I nodded as well.
"Yeah, I'll be there." I agreed and Nick smiled back at me.
"Stay the night?" He asked and I nodded back at him.
"Yeah, okay." I smiled back, before turning my attention back to the others. I checked the time, seeing that it was 9:30. "Ooh, I have to go. I'll see you guys tonight." I smiled, giving Nick a quick peck on the cheek before walking out to my car, driving to the studio. I walked in, heading to Studio B, opened the door to see a guy, about my age.
