"Sorry isn't gonna cut it. It was supposed to be you and aunt Ava. Not Ava and Simon and not Johnny and Mona," she said.
"This isn't 'Fairytale Land', Nikki, this is the real world and things don't always go the way you want them to," Johnny said. Nikki's eyes began to tear. She turned and ran up the house, to her room and slammed the door closed followed by the click on the lock.
Johnny got up off his knee and looked at Ava who was crying.
"I guess there isn't any hope," she said softly. She turned away from the group and walked away.
Chapter Three: Coming Home
"Johnny," Susannah began, but he cut her off by walking away, leaving Jay and herself.
The week went by in silence. Nikki was still cooped up in her room, only allowing Derrick to come in and give her breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Hard to believe, but it was true. Not even Bradin's coming home cheered Nikki up.
Bradin arrived early in the afternoon. He was disappointed that Erika was not one of the people who greeted him as he came out off the plane. But he could understand why she was a no-show. Jay was one of the people who greeted him. He came home a week early with Ava's permission. He was relieved Erika wasn't there. Him and Bradin were beginning to talk to each other more and more, and if he were to see Erika, it would only refresh the whole fight.
On the way home, Ava explained to the two of them what had happened between Johnny, Nikki, and herself.
"So, Bradin, when we get home, can you go see if you can talk to her?" Ava asked.
"Sure," Bradin said.
They soon arrived to the house and after taking his bags to his room, Bradin walked up the stairs to Nikki's room and knocked.
"Who is it?" Nikki demanded.
"Nikki, it's Bradin," he said.
"Please, just leave me alone," she said.
"Come on Nik," he said starting to get annoyed.
"Bradin, I don't feel like talking," she said, "please, leave me alone."
"Fine," Bradin said, giving up. He turned and began walking downstairs where everyone was.
"How did it go?" Susannah asked.
"It didn't," he sighed. He looked out towards the beached and then moved to the horizon. "I'm gonna go for a walk."
"Okay," Ava said.
"Be back by four o'clock," Jay said, "I'm barbecuing." Bradin smiled as he walked out the back door.
"So—" Susannah began, "You and Bradin and talking again?"
"I guess I've decided to give him a second chance. I'm still a little upset, but I can take it," Jay lied. "I think I'm gonna go see if I can talk to Nikki." He got up and walked up the stairs.
Bradin walked along the beach heading nowhere in particular. He was really hoping he would catch Erika surfing, but he told himself that they couldn't work.
'But I still love her,' he thought, 'I can't just forget her.'
It was just his luck; Erika was up ahead coming out of the water. Bradin just stopped and watched her. She patted herself dry and then lied down, trying to catch some of the remaining sunlight as the sun had begun to set.
Bradin's mind was racing. What would he do: talk to her or try to ignore her? He finally made up his mind:
"ERIKA!"
A/N: Well there it is. Thanks for all the comments. Im glad to hear that my writing style is improving. Next Chapter: Erika and Bradin talk as well as Nikki and Jay.
