*Next Afternoon*
Nina's POV
I wake up to the smell of bacon and eggs. I force my eyes and look around. I'm stretched out on Fabian's couch, and surprisingly, he's not here.
I sit up, and stretch. "Fabian?" I mumbled.
"I'm right here." He calls from the kitchen.
"You're up… before me?" I eye him suspiciously. "What time is it?"
"12:00 and Mick called me earlier and woke me up…" Fabian explained.
"What did he say?" I asked.
"He's proposing to Amber." he smiled, taking the bacon out of the oven.
"That's great!" I exclaimed.
"Yeah it is." He agreed. "Want some bacon?" he asked.
"Of course, i'll just bring the pan to the table." I said eyeing the egg shells, pancake batter, and spilled coffee that littered the counters.
"No Nina that's-
"Oh my- shi- mother f- ow!" I rambled holding my burnt fingers.
"Hot." Fabian finishes. "Let me see." He says, walking toward me.
"No, it hurts." I say, trying to examine my fingers myself.
"Just let me see them." Fabian sighs.
"Fine."
"Oh this is bad…" he trailed off.
"What? What's a matter?"
"Relax Nina, I'm just kidding. You'll be fine, you just need some ice.
"That's good." I sigh in relief.
He get's some ice out of the freezer and putting it on my fingers.
"Better?" he asked, looking up.
"Better."
"Here." He said. "I think you deserve this." He said handing me a piece of room temperature bacon.
"Thank you." I laugh.
"I'm going to go head back over to my place, I need to get changed. I'll call you in a little bit." I say.
"Ok, see you later." He said before I walked out and went to my car.
I drive the small distance and walk up the steps to my apartment.
I walk into my apartment to see Amber and Mick making out on the couch.
"Don't let me interrupt you guys…" I mummer, awkwardly shuffling off to my room.
I take a quick shower and put on jeans and Fabian's pullover hoodie. I spray on some of my favorite perfume, Miss Dior Cherie, and put my hair into a pony tail.
I walk out to see Mick and Amber no longer kissing on the couch, thank God!
"Glad to see you guys breathe." I exhaled, plopping on the recliner and dialing Fabian's number.
"Oh ha ha Nina, you know you would be doing the same thing if Fabian was here…" Amber says with a smirk on her face.
I just sit back further into the chair, not being able to think of a good comeback, since it's true. I finish dialing, and wait patiently for him to pick up.
"Fabian?" I say through the phone.
"Hey Nina, you finished getting dressed?"
"Yep, want to come over? Mick is over here, and I don't want to have to say in my room the whole day." I say eyeing the kissing couple.
"Why would you have to stay in your… Oh…."Fabian trailed off, realizing what I meant." " Well be over in a few."
"Ok, see you then." I say before hanging up.
"Want to watch a movie?" I asked, hoping they could stop and breathe for 2 seconds.
Silence.
"Hey guys! Look! Pinocchio!" I say trying to get their attention.
"Ok..." I mumble putting Pinocchio in the DVD player.

After a few minutes, Fabian is knocking on the door.
"Come in!" I called.
Fabian walks in and immediately looks disgusted, seeing Amber and Mick still kissing.
"Yeah.. They've been doing that for 10 minutes." I say.
"Do you guys always have to ruin a perfect moment?" Amber groaned.
"It's our goal!" I laughed, taking Fabian's hand and sitting him on the couch next to me.
"Are you guys watching Pinocchio?" Fabian asked, looking at the now dancing puppet.
"Oooh! I haven't seen this movie in ages!" Amber sings.
"Amber, I was wondering if we could go on that date we never got around to..." Mick says, eyeing us, Fabian and I nodding.
"Of course, when?"
"Tonight."
"WHAT? I have to take a bath, put on my body butter, let that marinate, pick out a dress, pick out shoes, do my hair, do my makeup, and you're just telling me this now?" she rambled.
"Yes?" Mick asked, looking completely unsure of himself.
"Calm down Amber, you can start getting ready now, I'll help." I say, knowing the boys are going to turn off Pinocchio and put on some sport.
"Well move it woman!" she says, practically pulling my arm out of its socket. "Now what color should my dress be?" she asked pulling me into her room.
"How about w-
"Pink! No... I wear that too often."
"Well maybe-
"Purple... Yeah. I'll wear that." she nodded, obviously not planning on taking my advice.
"Now which shoes?"
"I'm just going to run your bath." I say. It's not like she's really going to take my advice anyways.
Which is a good thing, because I'm not the best at the whole fashion thing.
I turn on the water, and put in some strawberry bubble bath.
I leave it running, before walking back to Amber.
"Ok Nina, how should I do my hair, should I put it in a bun, curl it, straighten-
"It'll look good no matter what, Amber." I say.
"You're right... I'll wear it in a fish tail braid!" she smiled. "Nina, you wouldn't happen to know why Mick wants us to go on this date so much, would you?"
Uh oh.
I'm definitely not the best at lying...
"Me? N-no, why would I know anything about M-Mick and his plans-
"Spill." she says crossing her arms.
"I don't know anything! Honest!" I squeak.
"Sure..." she says sarcastically.
"So... You excited?" I asked.
"Not really... It's just a date... Unless you're not telling me something!" he accused.
"Listen! I know nothing. Mick's not singing a song to you, proposing to you, or letting you bathe with his own freaking monkey!"
"What?"
"Basically, I will not just sit here and be accused of being a lair." I said, putting my hands on my hips.
"But that's what you are for not telling me!" Amber exclaimed.
"I am leaving." I say, trying to escape the situation.
"Nina... What will I do for the past few hours?" Amber whined.
"Do you know how long it takes you to get ready everyday?" I ask.
"Good point.." she says nodding.
"Well I'm going to go see what the boys are doing." I say, walking back into the living room.
As I predicted, Fabian and Mick were screaming at the TV, chips and beer spread out on the table... Glad to know they felt at home...
"Yes!" Fabian screamed.
"No! Damn goalies." yelled Mick.
"Hello." I yell over the TV.
"Hey Nina." Fabian smiled.
"What's up with him?" I say eyeing Mick, who's chugging down beer.
"He's drunk one beer too many." Fabian sighs.
"That's not good. Seeing that in just a few hours, he'll be taking Amber on the date that will determine their lives." I say.
"I'm sure he'll get it together..." Fabian says.
"For both him and Amber's sake I hope he does." I mumble.
"Hey, Mick. How about I take you home and you get your tux." Fabian calls. "I don't want to have to bail you out again for DUI." Fabian mummers, causing me to laugh.
"Alright." Mick grumbles, taking one last handful of chips before standing up.
"I'll be back in a few." Fabian says kissing me on the cheek.
"Ok." I say turning down the TV.
Fabian pulls Mick outside, shoving a water bottle in Mick's hand as he closed the door.
"Boys..." I mumble to myself.
I begin to pick up the mess that was created by Mick, and started making the red tar-like substance, also known as the hangover remedy, that I know Mick will be asking for soon enough.

"Nina..." Amber sings waltzing into the living room. "How do I look?"
She twirls around in her purple halter top dress, squealing as she did.
"Amber you look amazing." I smiled.
"Thanks Nines!"
"The boys should be back in a little while."
"Ok... What is that?" she asked pointing to Mick's hangover drink.
Here goes the lying..
"Ummm... Tomato soup! Yeah." I say.
"Oh, well can I have some? I don't want to look like a massive pig in front of Mick and I'm starving!"
"You can't!" I say. The "hangover remedy" is absolutely disgusting.
"Why not?"
"Because Mick is here!" I say, hoping he would walk in the door. "And he's not here... Great." I mumble to myself.
"No he's not..."
"Yes he is... Look out the window, there he is!" I lie, even though I couldn't possibly see from the kitchen.
"Ok?" she says getting up and walking over to the window.
Quickly, I stuff the drink into the fridge.
"I don't see them in the parking lot..."
"I'm walking in now." I heard Fabian call before walking in with the now sober Mick.
"Mick!" Amber smiles looking away from the window.
"Hey Ambs, you look gorgeous." Mick smiled.
"Thanks." she smiled. "Let's go... It's starting to rain." Amber says pulling out Mick.
"Have fun you two!" Fabian and I say as they walk out the door.
"So... What do you want to do?" I ask.
"Um... Watch TV?" Fabian asked.
"Don't you think we do that too much?" I asked.
"You're right.." he agreed.
"How about we... Dance." I say.
"What?"
Without answering, I pick up the remote and turn on the radio.
I wrap my arms around his neck, as he does the same around my waist.
"Wait." Fabian says.
"What?"
"Come on." he says pulling me out the door and down the steps.
The rain is now pouring down, but that's not a surprise... I mean this is England.
"Fabian what are you doing." I ask. Letting go of my hand, he walks out into the rain.
"Fabian, get back over here, you're going to get sick!" I say.
"Dance with me." he says holding out his hand.
"What?"
"Come on Nina..." he says.
Reluctantly I step out into the rain, immediately getting soaked.
"The things you make me do." I smile, looking up into his dark blue eyes.
"We probably look so crazy..." I laugh, now waltzing with him in the rain. "You think people will think we're drunk?"
"Either that or high... But let them think." he smiled, leaning down and kissing me softly on the lips.
"You know you're amazing, right?" I asked.
"I've been told." he says picking me up and spinning me around.
He sets me down and I begin to run around, my feet splashing in the puddles.
I turn around to see Fabian standing there, smiling at me, his hands shoved into his pockets.
I run back to him and give him a tight hug before giving him a small kiss.
We continue to dance in the rain until the rain lightens up.
"Ready to go back inside?" I asked.
"Ready when you are." he said.
"Well let's go in... I can already tell I'm going to stay home sick tomorrow." I say pulling him along.
I walk into the room and sit down on the couch despite the fact that I was soaking wet.
"Sit." I say patting a spot next to me.
Doing as I said he walked over, but then sat ontop of me.
"Fabian! If you get you ass off me!" I squeaked.
"No, it's fine, I'll just sit here for a while." he said.
"Fabian, get off!" I giggled, punching him.
Without answering, he get's off me, and presses his lips on mine again.
"You know you mean the world to me, right?" he asked, his lips still close to mine.
"Ditto." I smiled, about to lean in when my doorbell rings.
"I doubt they're back already..." I mumbled getting up and walking over to the door. And there stood.. Joy.
"Hey, is Fabes here?" she asked.
"Well yeah but-
"Can I come in?" she interrupted.
"S-sure." I say, trying my best not to be rude.
"Why is the floor wet?" she asked. "Why are you wet?"
"Um..."
"Fabian." she says, noticing him. "Why are you wet? Never mind, do you have any time for studying, we have the huge exam tomorrow and... Well, it's not like your busy. Are you?"
Jealousy and aggravation starts to boil inside of me.
I'm tired of her always coming around looking for Fabian.
I'm tired of Joy always acting dumb when if she actually used her brain she wouldn't have an excuse to come and see Fabian.
And I'm tired of the fact that Fabian thinks he doesn't like her, so what if she said she didn't have feelings for him? It's completely obvious!
"Yes, Joy. Yes he is. With me. So could you not have the worst timing on Earth for once and just leave?" I asked.
It's not that I'm trying to be mean because I'm not it's just... She gets to me.
"Please... Just go." I whispered.
"Fine, I'll just... Talk to you later Fabes." Joy said before leaving.
I turn to Fabian who hadn't said a word. He looks surprised.
"What?" I asked.
"Little harsh, don't you think?"
"Well-but-... She's just-
"I get it Nines... But it's not like she likes me." he asked.
"Really Fabian?" I asked rolling my eyes. "Really?"
"What?"
"You did not just say that."
"She told me herself... She told me she had a crush on Eddie... Or someone."
"And you really think she was telling the truth." I say raising an eyebrow.
He just stares at me, unable to answer.
"No, Fabian. You shouldn't because you know what? She's lying."
"How could you possibly know that, it's not like you guys are best friends."
"Because I'm a girl Fabian! Stop being such a dumb ass and read between the lines... Sometimes I swear I wonder why we even got together."
The words spill out of my mouth, and before I can stop them, it's too late.
Of course I know why we got together, it's because I love him, and I need him.
"Fabian... I-
But i stop when I see his hurt expression.
His jaw is clenched tight and his eyes begin to water.
Oh no.
"Fabian, I didn't mean-
"Nina... If you don't know, then there's obviously no reason to be together." he said quietly.
"But Fabian-
"We're through Nina." Fabian yelled before leaving and slamming the door shut.
It takes a while to process what just happened, but it's not long before I'm running outside, only to see he's long gone.
"Fabian..." I choked out, tears freely falling down my face.
I slump down to the floor, and begin to pinch myself, hoping that this is all some type of nightmare. But it takes the absentminded yelp of pain escaping my lips to know that this is real.
Tears now streaming down my face I shakily stand up and run into my room.
I hope I can drown in my own tears, because there is no longer a reason to live.
Ok guys! You of all people should know I love fabina, I mean, it's in my username! So obviously they'll get back together eventually... Make me smile! ~Fabina43va
