Part 2 Comments? :)
Miley snapped her head around and looked up at Nick. The light made it hard to make out his face. All she could see was the outline of his body. For some reason that made her feel better. She didn't have to see his face feeling sorry for her.
"I'm completely fine. My car won't start."
Nick looked across the street and then back down to Miley, "Oh. I thought you were crying or something."
Miley smiled up at him, "Don't flatter yourself, pretty boy. I'm debating on if I should call my mom or a tow truck."
Nick sat down on the grass beside her and picked a few blades of grass. Miley looked over at him with a bemused look. "What are you doing?" she asked while self-consciously scooting away from him.
"I'm going to wait with you. You shouldn't be out here alone."
Miley looked away from him and smiled. "I haven't called anyone yet. Who do you think I should call? My mom or a tow truck? Or both?"
Nick looked down at his watch and squinted trying to read the time in the darkness. "Well, from what I see you have three options. One; call your mom, but since its really late you might get into trouble. Does she even know you're here?"
Miley looked sheepish to Nick, "I didn't tell anyone I was coming here. They'd call me crazy. Or obsessed. What's the second option?"
"Second option; Call a tow truck and have them take you back to your place."
Miley stood up and took out her cell phone, "Yah I was leaning toward the second option. Know any tow truck numbers? I should probably Google that, huh?"
"Don't you want to hear the third option?" Nick asked looking into her eyes and putting a hand over hers to lower her cell phone so she looks up at him. When she finally stops messing with her phone, she looks back at Nick and swallows, "What's the third option?"
Nick grabbed her hand and led her up his walk, "Third option; You come back into my place and we talk."
Miley looked down at his hand wrapped around hers and made a mental note to remember this feeling later. "Talk? About what?"
Nick gave her a look like, 'What do you think?' and kept walking. Miley stopped dead in her tracks which made Nick jerk a little like a puppy on a leash. "What's wrong? Isnt that why you came here? To talk?"
Miley looked down and hated that she had to ask this next question, "Isn't your friend inside?" she asked without making direct eye contact.
Nick took a step back towards Miley and started to tug her back to the house. "No, she left. She's the one who actually told me you were still here."
"But I didn't see a car leave down the driveway..."
"She parked around back. I live in a gated community but that doesn't mean someone with a camera won't snap a picture of her leaving my place."
Miley couldn't think of anything else to say other than, "Oh. Right. I understand. Okay then," Miley sighed, "Lets go inside."
