I woke up in the morning, not really sure what I should do. I needed him. I had to be in his arms again, it's the only place I felt safe. I was scared without him. Maybe I had become a little too dependant. I flicked on the t.v and lucky me, Desi had been watching disney channel. And guess which movie was once again on? Yeah, Camp Rock and it seemed like everytime I turned on the t.v that's what was on. I really didn't need to see this movie. But I sat and watched it anyways. It was close to the end. When it finished, I eyed my cell phone that Charly had snuck in for me. After a minute, I felt my will-power crumble and I had to call someone. Anyone.
I had deleted Nick's number from my phone, to make sure I wouldn't bother him. I tried to remember but my memory was never the best... I sighed and pressed the second speed-dial. After five rings, finally someone answered.
"Nicole?" My heart beat faster as I stumbled over what to say. I loved this feeling, just hear one of my practically brothers on the line with me made me nervous. I hadn't realized how much I HAD actually missed Joe and Kevin.
"Kevin..." I said, excitedly.
"Nicole!" He said again, in a yell-whisper. Then he didn't say anything else.
"Uhh, yeah, it's me..are you okay?"
"Am I okay? Yeah I'm fine, why do you ask?" He was still whispering.
"Because you're whispering..." He laughed.
"Oh, yeah, that.. uhm, well Nick doesn't know I'm talking to you. So uhh, how are you? I didn't even hear what happened or anything, Nick wouldn't talk about it..." I took a deep breath. Kevin probably didn't notice, but he was saying his name a lot, and that affected me. It felt like a little sharp ping in my heart everytime. I guess I should explain why I was in the hospital, or why Nick didn't want to see me. Kevin and Joe were probably so confused.
"Does Joe know anything about it?"
"Not any more than I do." I paused for a second and then heard Kevin talking to someone on the side. ("I don't know, Nick, you were supposed to know.") Then he came back to me. "Sorry, but Nick forgot when our interview is, smart one..." I flinched again. But I knew I couldn't avoid the topic now.
"Hey, go get Joe okay? I need to tell you guys something, both of you. And could you go somewhere where Nick can't hear you?" I could tell that Kevin was confused, but he agreed and called for Joe. A minute later, I heared Joe.
"Hey, Nicole! What's up?" Joe said, enthusiastically. I decided to start it blunt. Why not?
"Not a whole lot, I'm sitting in a hospital bed, these things can get pretty uncomfortable...." I started. Kevin interuppted, like I expected he would.
"What? You're in the hospital? Are you okay? Why wouldn't Nick tell us that..." He trailed off.
"Kevin, let me talk" I said, smiling. He always did that.
"Ha, sorry." He said laughing.
"Well, uhm, you guys can't tell Nick I told you this, because for some reason he didn't want you to know. But obviously, we broke up I guess..." I said, my throat clenching, and my heart beating unevenly, not liking what I was saying at all. "And then, when I was in New York the next day, I got attacked by the guy who killed my parents, and it was pretty bad. He hurt my back really bad, so it damaged it further than the scoliosis already had. And I have scars all up my legs, but I'm okay now. It's been like 3 weeks." There was silence. I realized I had dumped a lot on them. After a minute Joe spoke. Leave it to Joe to break silences...
"So, you're hurt?" I couldn't help but laugh. He was pretty slow sometimes.
"Uh, yea, I guess you could put it that way." I said. I heard someone get up.
"Nicole, what hospital are you at?" I named off the hospital in New York City,
"Why?" I asked.
"Because we're coming to see you.We'll be there in an hour and half. Let's go Joe.. See you later, Nicole." I had a perma-grin on as I said good-bye and hung up the phone. They were coming. This would make everything better. Okay, not nearly everything. I had to admit, I missed Nick. The most I've ever missed anyone in my life, and that included my family. I still loved him, and I don't think that was ever going to change. Like the locket said, true love never faded. Too bad his love wasn't true.
Yay!
