Chapter Seven; No Worries

"What's up, man?" Nick, Joe, and Kevin were piled in Kevin's old red pick-up outside the building.

"It seems that the producers wanted to cancel the movie." Kevin replied.

"I think we got that."

"Yeah, but the reason is because they want Mr. Russo, aka Alex's father, out of power. Heaven knows how they will do it." Kevin pushed hard on the brake as he sighted a red light.

"Wow. I just wish the Russo's would stop causing trouble. It's already enough that I have to deal with Alex, but-" Nick stopped himself, and cleared his throat.

"But...?" Joe questioned.

"Well, it's just that, I kind of miss being able to be with Miley." Nick looked away.

"Explain to me again how Alex is our secret weapon?" Miley rolled her eyes in disbelief.

"Look, what we do is simple, getting her to not notice what we're doing is hard. And how do we do that?" Sonny asked.

"Er, we...kidnap her and lock her up...somewhere?" Miley's response earned a quick hit from Sonny.

"Am I the only one with brains? We're going to let her in on the wrong plan," Sonny watched as Miley nodded her head dumbly. "You don't get it, do you?"

"Nope, enlighten me please."

"We're going to tell her that we're making a back-up movie to earn billions of dollars for RUSSO, INC. More specifically, billions of dollars for her. But, we tell her we need money to start out with, because we do. And the whole time she thinks she's helping RUSSO, INC., but, she's actually helping our new company: YILEN."

"Number one: is that even legal? Number two: what does "YILEN" stand for?"

"Asnwer one: YES! Answer two: Niley."

"Dude, we knew that. No need to hide." Kevin laughed.

"Well, it's kind of embarrassing considering that she didn't even look up at me twice during filming. She must hate my guts," Nick added hastily.

"You're nervous, doesn't she have a reason to be nervous as well?" Joe looked back at his younger brother.

"Huh. I doubt it."

"Dude, just call her." Kevin reached inside his pocket and twisted his arm to hand the BlackBerry back to Nick.

"Uh, no thanks." Nick pushed it away.

Joe pressed in Miley's phone number and held it against Nick's ear. "Too late, little boy."

"No, I don't want to-Oh, hi, Miles."

"Hi, Nick?" Miley's voice was hinted with nervousness.

"Yep, it's me." Nick paused.

"And you called because..."

Joe held up a piece of paper with words scrawled in black sharpie on it.

Meet me at the park on Sixth Street at four.

"I was wondering, if you'd like to...hang out." Nick finished quickly.

"Sure, when?" Miley seemed considerably happier, at least.

"Four o'clock...at the park on Sixth Street." Nick glanced again at Joe.

"Okay, see you then."

"BOOYA!" Joe slapped Nick on the back, laughing.

"Sure, sure."

"Who was right? Moi!"

"Yeah, okay, you were right." Nick couldn't suppress the unforced smile from his lightened face. "But, I don't have anything ready..."

"No worries, bro, no worries."


+VERY IMPORTANT+

Well, break was wonderful, and we can't deny that we might try it again, but we really were getting a lot of reviews and alerts, and it was making us incredibly happy, especially since we haven't posted in a while.

And so, I checked the stats for this story and I was really happy with what I have. I don't want to share any of that information, but I will tell you that it was way more than what I expected or had hoped for.

So, I really wanted to post something, and here it is...in a very bad state, but it is here.

My co-owner is quitting, so I'm going solo...it's going to be hard for me to update, so...I'm putting quite a few series on hiatus. The three I will be devoted on FOR NOW is "Dear Nicholas" (Niley, which a lot of you enjoy), Heartbreak Toy (Niley, which is kind of dirty but a lot of people like it...) and Just Acting, Right? What I plan to do is get this finished up, and get Niley together, and start on the sequel...not much has happened, but get ready for a plot twist!

-Bye!
