I do own nothing but the plot line.
Eddie's POV:
After the video chat, Mara come down from her nap. We had to explain everything.
Mara: But, Nina, why would you keep your identity a secret?
I looked at Nina and she nodded sadly.
Me: The reason she kept it a secret was because-
Nina: I was scared! I was just scared that you guys would judge because of karate. I mean, who would want to be friends with a freak like me!? Jerome, is still in shock because I beat him in video games and I broke a plastic table with metal bars with my one foot! My brother, Jack, broke what seemed to me like 15 bricks! I only came here for a fresh start. That's why I took they scholarship. And I got that scholarship because of karate. Yeah I smart room but not Mara smart! I just wanted to start all over!
Then she ran out of the room, out the door and into the room. Suddenly, all eyes were on me.
Me: Just think about what you're gonna do when I come back with Nina, who will probably in my arms unconscious.
I ran out of the house and ran towards the woods. I suddenly stopped when my phone went off. I then answered the call.
Me: Hello?
?: Hey Eddie! It's Jack.
Me: Hey J! What's up?
Jack: Rudy just found out where tournament will take place.
Me: And?
Jack: Lets just say he talked to your dad and we're staying at a your house.
Me: Shut up! You better not be playing with me, man!
Jack: I swear on my dog, Scruffie's, death, I'm not playing.
Me: Don't you mean on Scruffie's "life"?
Jack: Nope. Got sick and died.
Me: Oh, sorry buddy.
Jack: It's cool. But I have no idea how Nina will take both news.
Me: When are you guys coming?
Jack: Next week, why?
Me: Make a surprise entrance at dinner and let Kim tell her about Scruffie.
Jack: Hey, thanks man. And Milton said you don't come up with good ideas. *Giggles*
Me: Hey! They may not be the brightest but they always work in the end. Anyway, I gotta go. Nina ran off into the woods, plus, I got lost in them. *Strugs*
Jack: Kay. See ya next week.
Me: Right, see ya.
Jack: *Hangs up*
I hung up too. I walked deeper into the woods and started to shout Nina's name.
Me: Nina! Nina! NINA!
?: God, I'm right here! You don't gotta yell!
I looked to my left to see Nina on a burnt branch of the burnt elm tree.
Me: Hey.
Nina: Hi.
I climbed up the tree and sat on the branch in front of hers.
Me: Want to explain the dramatic run away?
Nina: Not really. I thought you knew what it was about anyway.
Me: Oh I do. Just wanted to make you talk about it...atleast.
Nina: *Giggles*
Me: *Think* It's working!
Nina: So, you came looking for me? I thought you were Fabian, but then I realized that your hair is a lighter shade of brown than his. So I was just like "Well, if it isn't the Osiran coming to save the day...again."
Nina and I: Ha ha!
Me: Hey, remember that song that I kept humming every time I went to my locker. Remember, my locker was right next to yours.
Nina: Yeah. You were obsessed with it. And Big Time Rush.
Me: Well, if you can't defeat them, might as well enjoy them.
Nina: Mhmm. *Starts humming the song*
Me: Do you remember the lyrics?
Nina: *Musicly* Say anything you want.
Nina and I: *Musicly* I'll turn the music up
Cuz baby
We ain't going no oh oh where
I'll leave it all behind
To be with with you tonight
And baby
We just keep going oh oh oh oh
Oh yeah!
Oh yeah!
Oh yeah!
Screamin' oh yeah
Ye-yeah.
*Regular* Ha ha ha!
I looked at Nina and she smiled.
Nina: I'm feeling better, thanks for asking.
Me: Good. Now, we better go.
I was about to leave when Nina stopped me.
Nina: Or we can stay here until lunch?
Me: Okay.
I got back in my position and looked at the tree.
Me: This can be our special place. Just you and me, under this tree. Gee, who knew it would just be the two amigos?
Nina: So what, now your DJ Miller?
Me: Maybe I am.
Nina: He he! Yeah, just you and me at our special place.
Me: When ever one goes missing, the other knows where to look.
Nina: Yeah. Best friends for life.
Me: And after life. Good thing I always carry a carving knife *Take out carving knife*
Nina: Why?
Me: I like to carve things out of wood. Sweetie gave it to me.
I started to carve three symbols in the trunk.
Nina: N+E? *Takes carver*
Then Nina added seven more symbols before carving a brokenheart around it.
Me: N+E=BFFLAA?
Nina: Nina+Eddie=Best Friends For Life And Afterlife. Just you and me Edison.
Me: Just you and me Nathalia.
