CHAPTER 6
*Nicole's P.O.V.
Chris helped me feel better. He brought me back to the hotel and he calmed me down. When I finally was calm again, Chris asked the inevitable question:
"What happened?"
I explained everything and I started crying more. Chris just held me while I cried. That was when I realized how safe I felt with Chris. I used to feel that safe with Adam, until today. After I explained what was going, and I was calm again, Chris laid me down in bed and kissed me on my forehead.
"Night, sweetheart." He said.
"Chris?"
"Yeah?"
"Stay here. Please?" I asked. He nodded and climbed into the other bed in the room. He turned off the light and whispered.
"Sweet dreams, babe."
"You too, Chrissy." I soon drifted off to sleep.
*Adams' P.O.V.
"God! First they kiss, then they're hugging! What the else can happen?!" I asked. I was pacing in my locker room, while Jay listened intently from the couch. "How they hell did this all happen?" I asked.
Jay just listened. "So how exactly did your argument start?"
"She came in here and started talking and then somehow Chris came up and I brought up the kiss and then we were yelling at each other." I explained. "I said something about not caring what she does. How they hell did this happen?" I repeated. "God, they kissed! I wanna knock that stupid son of a........."
Finally, Jay interrupted me. "Ok, Adam I've heard enough! You don't own Nicole. She is a grown woman and she can do what she wants. I don't know exactly what the hell had happened today, but from what I hear, you've been a huge JACKASS!!!"
I nodded. I knew he was right. "I know Jay, but it still pisses me off! Chris knows how I feel about her."
"Wait a minute Ad, you never actually said how you felt about Nicole, everyone just figured it out and you never know, maybe Chris cares about her too?"
"I don't know."
"Adam, I'm gonna say this once, so you better listen. Go APOLOGIZE!"
I nodded and left the room. I walked down the hallway towards Nicole's dressing room, but stopped when I heard a sniffle. It was Nicole, and once again, she was in Chris's arms! 'I made her cry.' I thought to myself. 'And Chris is gonna get to make her feel better.' I felt my anger rising and instead of causing another scene, I just walked back to my locker room, pissed as hell.
When I got there, Jay was gone. "Son of a bitch!!!" I yelled. All I wanted to do was hit Chris, knock him out. "Wait a minute," I said out loud, "What the hell is wrong with me? I'm going crazy!!! Dammit!" I yelled. I grabbed my bags and started getting my stuff together to go home. 'This is all so fucked up. The girl I love and one of my best friends are in each other's arms right now, and it's all my fault.'
*Nicole's P.O.V.
I slept peacefully for a couple of hours, but then I had a horrible dream. It was me and Adam, and our fight kept playing over and over. He kept saying, 'I don't care what you do.' Over and over again then right before I woke up he said, 'I hate you.' It scared me and I woke up, sweaty and scared.
Chris heard me get up and he came over to me. He hugged me and calmed me down. "Are you okay now, Nickie?" he asked, with concern. Even in the dark, I could see his blue eyes staring at me, worried for me.
"I'm okay now Chris. Thank you." He leaned down and gave me and hug and a kiss on the cheek. We just laid like that for a while, until Chris pulled back and went to go back to his bed. "Chris wait." I said.
"What is it? Are you okay?"
"Yeah, but I wanted to say thank you for taking care of me, you didn't have to."
"Yes I did. You were upset, and like I told you before, I care about you. I don't ever want to see you hurt." I smiled in the dark, and I could see Chris smile back at me. I hugged him again, this time not letting go.
"Chris, will stay here with me?"
"I already am."
"No, I mean here. With me."
"Are you sure?" He asked. I nodded. He climbed into the bed and I turned to face him. He wrapped his arms around me and I snuggled closely to him, not wanting to let go.
A/N: What do you think? I've had lots of people tell me to put Adam and Nicole together, but I decided to make this turn in the story. Maybe we'll change it in the end? I dunno :). R&R and tell me what you think!!! :) Nicole
