Nikki and Brandi sat in the break room waiting for Ponch and Jon. It wasn't exactly the most romantic date to begin with, but they loved the guys too much to care about that. Just as long as they saw each other it was all good. Brandi was sitting at the table looking at her fingernails she had just painted them the night before, and they were starting to chip already. She didn't care all that much. She wasn't big into all that make up, and doing nails, like other women. Nikki was so not into that either in fact, she didn't even own a thing of nail polish, let alone a single make up anything. No lip gloss, eye liner, no nothing. She didn't own any make up! Brandi did have a few things though. She didn't use them much, but she did own a few things. Just for special occasions such as seeing Jon.

The room was a little cold, and Nikki shivered and pulled on her sweater that Brandi insisted she bring along. Nikki didn't think she needed it, but Brandi knew her sister well enough to know that she got cold easily at night, so she made her dress as if it were going to be chilly.

Soon the door swung open, and someone came in, then the door closed and Ponch was leaning against it keeping it closed. He was laughing like crazy as he did it. Brandi and Nikkie were confused.

"Ponch, what did you do?" Nikki asked knowing something was going on.

"Nothing," Ponch replied. He was trying to catch his breath. Then he looked and saw Jon in the doorway at the window. He was making a fist at Ponch.

"What did you say to him?" Brandi asked coming closer.

"Told him…that…Sarge…doesn't…let…" Ponch couldn't finish he ended up falling over laughing his head off. The door swung open and Jon walked in.

"Frank Poncherello you're crazy! You could've told me that pen was broken," Jon said he was trying to keep a straight face. There was a big splotch of pen ink on his uniform shirt.

"I did," Ponch replied laughing still.

Jon put his hands on his hips, then decided he'd help Ponch up so he reached a hand out to his friend. Ponch gladly took it, and as soon as Ponch was up Jon hugged him tightly making sure to smear some pen ink on his uniform shirt too. "There, now let's see what Getraer says about someone getting pen ink on their shirt," Jon said with a grin.

Ponch got wide eyes. "Jonathan Baker!"

Brandi and Nikki couldn't help but just laugh at the two friends. "And they're supposed to be professional," Nikki whispered to Brandi in a teasing way.

Brandi giggled. "Uh-huh, best CHP officers in LA I heard…" she replied.

Then Ponch and Jon turned to the girls both making a face at them. Eventually all four were laughing about this.

oOoOo

Nikki was once again sitting at her computer screen on Facebook. She didn't understand why she even got on any more when she already knew the pain it caused her. But just getting on, and pretending she had friends was mainly what it was. She had a lot of people she'd friended, most of them were never on, a good portion of them were family members or people she'd never met before. Very few were actual friends. Ponch was almost never on. It drove her crazy! He preferred Twitter, of which he was on that, and snapchat almost all the time. Nikki rarely ever did anything on either. She was more of a Facebook person.

Brandi came and sat beside her, she turned on the TV and started to watch the news. Something that neither one of them actually watched, but they turned it on as a background noise in case they needed to hear something important. Because one time it was the only way of them knowing that Jon had been injured.

"That was a great meal, wasn't it?" Brandi asked turning on her laptop.

"Yes it was, and the show we got before it was terrific!" She replied laughing slightly remembering the break room.

"I'll never forget the look on Getraer's face when he saw their uniforms," Brandi said laughing.

Nikki also laughed about that. They laughter lasted a while, then it suddenly stopped when Brandi started talking to Jon on Facebook. She was so wrapped up in the conversation that Nikki decided to find something else to do. She sent a message to Ponch, and just as always it was left unreplied for what seemed like a million hours, but it was only a couple.

"Hey, sorry I didn't reply sooner. I got super distracted with a bunch of quizzes…anyway I have to get up early. I'll talk to you tomorrow, ok?" was what he said.

Nikki was at first slightly disappointed, but then remembered, Ponch still had a life…though how he spent his time was a little annoying to her at times, she needed to respect that. She noticed most of the quizzes he'd done, because he posted the results on Facebook, of which showed her he was still there.

"Ok, sleep well baby," she said then added a smiley face. Ponch just sent a heart and some kissy faces to her then said "I love you."

Nikki was bored to death, she didn't know why she was still on, she wasn't doing anything. So she ended up just shutting her laptop off. "I'm gonna go to bed," she told Brandi. She noticed it was still really early for her to be going to bed.

Brandi was a bit concerned. "Are you alright?" she asked.

"Yes," Nikki replied nodding her head. Then she left to her room. She flopped down on the bed and stared at the ceiling. "I wish I wasn't so lonely…I wish I was prettier…like Brandi…I wish life was better…no one seems to notice me anymore. I'm apparently not that important to Ponch if he's more interested in a few stupid quizzes…" she continued to talk to herself. She just kept saying all these things to herself. "I'm the worst friend ever…I can't believe I forgot to call Amber like I said I would! She's gonna hate me…but I'm not calling now, it's too late. She's working. I wish she didn't work night shifts. I never see her anymore." Nikki rolled over and started to cry. "I hate being emotional!" she screamed into her pillow.
