Noting Stays The Same

Chapter 25: Im Out Boo

It was January 3, 2006. Time to go back to school. Nikkie was up and ready. She slipped on her light blue jeans and put on her anklet 2" light pink stilettos. She slipped on a light pink babydoll shirt and her pink blazer. She straightened out her hair. She grabbed her bag and went downstairs. She packed up her books and walked over to the counter. She found yet another note.

"Mom, you and your overtime" Nikkie said. Her mom had already dropped off Alexa and was on her way to her job. Nikkie grabbed her keys and got into her car and drove off to school.


Nikkie arrived at her locker and pulled out her notebooks. She had gotten her new schedule. She walked to her first period class which was Chemistry. She only had 3 classes because she only needed a few more credits. She seated herself beside Paige.

"Hey, you have to go through one more semester of this too." Paige asks. Nikkie nodded. "This sucks" Paige added

"Paige I have to tell you something major" Nikkie said

'What happened hun" Paige asked

"New Years night, I didnt share my oh-6 kiss with Jimmy" Nikkie said

"What? Hun your crazy talking here. So you didn't. Whats the issue" Paige said

"Paige...I may have kind of kissed Reggie" Nikkie said

"WHAT! Hot, sexy...wait you kissed him instead of Jimmy" Paige said

"Yes. And my issue is...is im not guilty. I enjoyed it" Nikkie said

"Hun, thats luck. You and Jimmy's relationship isn't exactly rock solid. But even though" Paige said

"You don't understand. Paige he's...forget it" Nikkie said

"What?" Paige asked

"Can we talk later?" Nikkie said

"Ok. Fine" Paige said

After class Nikkie and Paige walked out to the front of the school where everyone was hanging out on the front steps. Nikkie found a spot on the bench. Paige sat down.

"What's on your mind" Paige asked

"It's such a long story, but i'll cut it into the short version... Remember the whole dance last year, I mean what happened to me" Nikkie explained

"Yeah" Paige said

"Well. Reggie...Reggie's friends, or family with those guys. He's the one who brought me home" Nikkie said

"What?" Paige said

"Yeah...but he-" Paige cut Nikkie off.

"Well there you go" Paige said

"What" Nikkie asked

"Nikkie. You can do this. You can report it. If he's such a great friend, then there is your evidence. He's what you need for your case if you ever plan to press charges" Paige said

"But I can't do that. Paige, he is a great guy and to use him and risk him going to jail would be wrong" Nikkie said

"I'll keep this to myself, but not stopping that night was wrong" Paige said

"It wasn't him. Paige, I dont care about those guys anymore. I'm over it" Nikkie said

"So your not going to press charges" Paige asked. Nikkie stayed shut. Paige felt wrong for not pushing her.

"Well then. Whatever your decision...I'll support you" Paige said

"Thanks" Nikkie said hugging her. "Um, something else. Reggie invited me to go to New York" Nikkie said

"What? When" Paige asked

"Regents week" Nikkie said

"I say go. Get away from Jimmy to figure things out. Honestly, I wouldn't tell him though. So your better off lieing. Yeah, I know horrible. But its worth the stress relief" Paige said

"Thanks, um between me and you. Only" Nikkie said

"I promise" Paige said


Nikkie was in her room with Jimmy.

"Baby, Raylese invited me to New York for next week. And...I just wanted to tell you so that you didn't you know make any serious plans" Nikkie lied. Jimmy grabbed her waist.

"No, its cool. I wanted some time with you but. Family comes first" Jimmy said

"No, your always number one. Its just I havn't seen Raylese in a while and I want to spend some time with her" Nikkie said

"It's cool baby" Jimmy laughed. Nikkie smiled and kissed him


Vanessa was in Craig's room. She was looking at his wall which had alot of posters and pictures. He had alot of pictures of his friends. But the face she saw the most was Nikkie's. Goofy ones when they went to the beach, New York, dances, parks, amusements parks. Vanessa turned around when she saw him walk into the room.

"So, um you and Nikkie are close" Vanessa asked

"She's like a sister to me" Craig lied. Vanessa took that coment in with disguist.

"Um, I've been waiting awhile to tell you this, but...B.C elementary" Vanessa said

'What about it" Craig said

"You don't remember me from class 209. I crushed on you since the 3rd grade" Vanessa said

"I was 7. I dont remember" Craig said

"Well I do. And I'm so happy that the moment is here" Vanessa said

Craig laughed. "Wh-what moment"

"Us, me being here. With you" Vanessa said walking up to him and kissing him. She pulled back. Craig moved in to kiss her again. She sat down on his bed. He stopped kissing her and stood up straight. Vanessa looked up at him and then at his belt. She began to unbuckle it.

"Um-um, maybe-maybe, we shouldn't" Craig said

"Craig. I love you" Vanessa said. Craig stayed shut. Vanessa kept on unbuckling his pants and pulled him down on top of her. What went on wasn't supposed to happen, but Craig posed himself as in love with her as he supposedly "made love" to her.


It was Saturday night. Nikkie packed her bags for New York. She told her mother the truth, that she was going to a Sweet 16 as Reggie's date. She pulled out her dress and folded it nicely into the suitcase. There was a knock on her door. She turned around and saw Reggie.

"So your ready" Reggie asked

"Yup. I wanted to ask. Ya boys...their not g-" Nikkie stopped

"I'll keep ya far apart as possible. But if you get to know them, you'd be cool with them" Reggie said

"No, that's okay. I just don't want to have anything to do with them" Nikkie said

"So you ready to head out" Nikkie asked

"Yeah" he said grabbing her suitcase. Nikkie said her goodbyes and was on her way to the airport.


The plane landed at 1:45 a.m. in Laguardia Airport. Nikkie and Reggie got their luggage together and hailed a cab.

"Where to, youngn's" the driver asked

"Park Avenue Four Seasons Hotel" Reggie said. The ride was long. Nikkie fell asleep on the way to the hotel. When they arrived she woke up and got out. The scenary was beautiful. The streets were quiet. They entered the hotel and found their hotel room. It was beautiful. The room was nicely furnished and there were 2 full sized beds, a large living room. Nikkie dropped her purse and chose her bed. She kicked off her shoes and went right into bed without changing. Reggie laughed and got into bed as well. Before he did he called his boys to check up on them to see if they got in. In which they did. They were 2 rooms down from them. Tomorrow was a work day. And Nikkie was in for surprises.
