Finding Each Other
Chapter 9: Guess whose Back?
Nikkie was wearing jean mini, a black long sleeve shirt and black sneakers. Her hair was in two loose cornroll braids. She had her black book bag. She was nervous about getting back to school, but she had to go. She was early, she was so nervous she couldn't sleep so she brought her stuff down and sat on the couch. She turned on the T.V. and began to watch. She went to MTV and they were giving MTV Wake up call. She was listening to music for a long time. It had still been dark outside. She went into the kitchen and made some waffles. Then Raylese came downstairs in her robe. She looked at Nikkie.
"What are you doing up so early..(*yawn) you still have like half an hour more" she told her.
"I don't know I'm a little nervous.I guess" Nikkie said
"Well I guess everyone is nervous. Everything is complete chaos, but you know we have got to get on, yeah I know he was are dad, but life ain't always easy to deal with" Raylese said and she went upstairs and back to bed.
Nikkie turned off the T.V. and went outside with her bookbag. She sat on the front porch and thought about how she was going to spend the last 4 and a half months left of school. She waited like half an hour more. She had her forehead in her knees. Then she heard a voice.
"Nikkie" the voice asked
Nikkie looked up and saw Jimmy. Nikkie then smiled and got up and hugged him.
"Why are you out here" Jimmy asked her
"Nothing waiting and thinking. I've been up all morning..just waiting nervously. I couldn't sleep" she told him.
"Ok you wanna get going" Jimmy asked her
"Wait a minute..come inside real quick" Nikkie told him
When Nikkie went inside she found Raylese putting on her shoes and Alexa watching her morning cartoons.
"Where's mom" Nikkie asked Raylese
"Sleeping, she wants to get some extra sleep before she has to finish up the stuff for the funeral" Raylese said "Oh..hey Jimmy" she added
"Hold on Jimmy I'll be right back" Nikkie told him dropping her bookbag and running upstairs.
When Raylese finished tying her shoes she got her bookbag from the closet and turned to Jimmy.
"Take care of Nikkie...she's counting on someone to keep her from being hurt again...and I'm sure you could be that person" Raylese said
"You got it" Jimmy said
Raylese grabbed Alexa's hand.
"Bye Jimmy" Alexa said
Jimmy waved bye and they left. Then Nikkie came downstairs and grabbed her bag. Then when she came back up from picking it up her face met Jimmy's.
"Are you ready" she said pumping her knee out.
Then Jimmy kissed her. "Yeah I'm good. Lets go" he said
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Jimmy and Nikkie walked hand in hand to school. They went in and went into the hallway and to their lockers. Nikkie wasn't even halfway done with putting in her combination when Paige came out of nowhere and hugged her.
"Nikkie I have missed you" Paige said
"Me too" Nikkie said
"I didn't want to call because I figured that you needed rest"
"Yeah" Nikkie said with a soft tone in her voice
"What's wrong aren't you glad to be back" Paige asked
"Nothing" Nikkie said
"Hun, with that face, I can see there is something. Now spill" Paige asked
"Well, besides that I am alive, over the weekend I found out my dad died" Nikkie said like it was ok.
"Oh.my god. I had no clue. I'm am so sorry" Paige said
"Its ok" Nikkie said
Paige left and Nikkie opened her locker. She looked in the mirror and fixed up the hairs that were sticking up from her braids. Then all of a sudden she heard some running footsteps. She looked into the mirror and saw J.T. running from Emma. She turned around and looked at them.
"J.T. I am going to kill you" Emma yelled
J.T. was backing up looking at her. "Your not really serious about that, now are you Emma" J.T. said nervously.
"No, your right! I'M DEAD SERIOUS!!!" she yelled and J.T. ran.
As Emma ran she calmed her down and stood in front of her.
"Emma, Emma, Emma! Calm down." Nikkie repeated putting both hands on her shoulders. J.T. stood behind Nikkie looking at Emma.
"Yeah keep the wild cat away from me" J.T. said
"Why you little..RAT!" Emma yelled trying to get J.T. over Nikkie's shoulders.
"No.No.No. Emma..stop" Nikkie said
"No way he is a pest" Emma said
"No she is" J.T. yelled
"J.T. just shut up" Nikkie told him
Nikkie took her hands off Emma and fixed herself up.
"Ok. Now what is going on here" Nikkie asked
"This little brat over stole my floppy disc that had my diary in it. He took it and put it into everyone's computers in the computer lab. Now everyone is reading it" Emma said
"I only did it because you told everyone about my bed wetting problem" J.T. yelled
"How long has this been going on" Nikkie asked
"Since yesterday" they both said
"Ok. Enough then. Friends" Nikkie said
"Whatever" Emma said turning around
"Emma" Nikkie said grabbing onto her shoulder
"Friends" Emma said "Just no more funny stuff ok" and she shook hands with him.
"Oh by the way Craig told me about your dad. Sorry" Emma said putting arm around Nikkie.
"Yeah sorry" J.T. said
"I'm ok though" Nikkie said
They left and Nikkie grabbed her English text book.
She walked to first period where she was 10 minutes early. It was Media Immersion. She sat down and found Marco and Spinner coming in.
"Nikkie" Spinner said excitedly. He came up to her and gave her a hug.
"Hey Spinner, Marco" Nikkie said with a smile on her face
They talked for like 2 minutes and they took their seats. Then Ashley, Ellie and Terri came in and talked to her for a while then Paige and Hazel came in and smiled at her.
Soon later class began and Nikkie kept finding people and saying hi to everyone again. She was happy to be back at Degrassi. At lunch she sat with Jimmy, Craig, Paige, Hazel, Spinner, Marco, Sean, Emma, Toby, Manny and J.T. It was the first time from different grades sat together. The were outside just hanging out. Then Jimmy, Spinner, Sean and the rest of the guys left to play some basketball. Leaving the girls to their "GiRl TaLk".
"So Nikkie I see you and Jimmy have finally gotten together" Paige said.
"It was a matter of time, I mean who didn't see that coming" Manny said.
"What are you talking about" Nikkie said
"Hello, it was so obvious" Hazel said
"You..Jimmy, I mean who couldn't tell you liked each other" Emma said.
"That obvious" Nikkie said
"Basically" Paige said
"You guys were to blind to see that you both liked each other" Ashley told her.
"I mean you guys kept thinking that it would never happen. All of the doubting kept you from thinking positive about it all" Emma said
"That's funny, because Jimmy said something exactly like that the night of the accident" Nikke said
"Really" Paige said
"Yeah, weird huh. I guess everyone saw that too. We were to blind to see that we were blind" Nikkie said
Everyone laughed.
Meanwhile in the court.
"So are things heating up with you and Nikkie yet" Spinner asked while passing the ball to Craig.
"No, but I don't need to worry. And I guess there is no need to ask how Paige and your relationship is going" Jimmy said blocking the shot Craig was going to make.
"Ha Ha Ha very funny. Paige and my relationship is fine" Spinner said.
"Nikkie is special. Especially at this moment." Jimmy said
"He is right" Marco said
"Yeah, I mean Jimmy can't think of stuff like that while his girl is in mourn. Can he now" Sean said while passing the ball to Craig.
"Exactly" Jimmy said
Craig shot the ball in the basket and won for his team.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The school day went on and the day went by fast because by afternoon everyone was happy to get out. Nikkie walked to her house with Paige, Hazel, Emma and Manny. She needed a day with some of her girlfriends. She went inside and told them to go inside the living room. She went upstairs and looked for her mom but no on was home yet. So maybe they had a while of fun.
The rest of the afternoon they watched DvD's in her room and talked to her friends online back in Virginia. They also played some games and ate a lot of junk food. During the little fun in the afternoon her Aunt Casey came home with Alexa and Raylese and Kayla. Soon later the had left. But her mom sat her down and told her something that Nikkie couldn't take. It was supposed to be a day of fun and laughing, but instead something had to interrupt.
Her mom told her that Friday they would be going back to Virginia for about a month because they were going to bury Chris there. So they were going to spend time with family and stay for a while. But the toughest part was how she was going to tell not only Jimmy but........EVERYONE!!!
Everyone was already happy she was back.
