"Cold As Ice"
Chapter Five
DC: I don't own the characters of 6teen
By: Desiree
There's kind of, sort of, more swearing in here than usual, nothing too big though, just in some serious scenes, like the first one... so you've been warned... not like anyone really cares though, lol
Nikki's eyes continued to release tears. Her tears rolled down her face and down onto the ground. She couldn't believe what Jonesy had just said to her. Nikki hugged her chest tightly and looked down at the ground. "How stupid was I?" she asked herself looking at her stomach that was covered with her white tank top. She looked back up to Jonesy who's back was turned against her and he was slowly walking out of the park. "JONESY I'M PREGNANT!" Nikki burst out.
Jonesy quickly turned around and his chocolate brown eyes widen. "You're what?" he said in a shocked voice as he slowly walked back towards Nikki.
"Pregnant, you know, I'm going to have a baby," Nikki looked up at him.
" I know what pregnant means," Jonesy looked at Nikki. "But Stone got you pregnant? Is that why that fucken bastard left you?" he raised his voice.
Nikki looked at Jonesy and frowned and she looked down to the ground. "He told me it was my fault and that I was the one who was suppose to use protection and that it was my job, he blamed everything on me and he dumped me and the next thing I know he's left the city to be with some other girl..." Nikki fell to her knees. "I am such a stupid loser," she held her face in her hands and let he weak side show. There was no use in trying to hide the fact that she was upset. Afterall, she was pregnant and she was going to experience very many mood swings.
Jonesy knelt down beside her and wrapped his arms around her and hugged her tightly with one arm while gently stroking Nikki's hair with his other hand. "Nikki... you're not stupid... everybody makes mistakes and Stone well he was your mistake. You deserved better than him, he should of never left you but he did," Jonesy stopped and brought his hands down to Nikki's face and he cupped her face with them. Bringing her face up a little bit so that their eyes connected. "I would of never did that if I found out that you was pregnant with my child but the thing is your not, Stone's the father but I'm still here for you and I'm willing to forgive you," he said.
Nikki wrapped her arms around Jonesy and buried her face in his chest. "Oh Jonesy, I'm just so scared about having this baby, I don't know what I am going to do," she told him."I thought I would be alone... but as long as I have you and the gang by my side I know that I can get through anything," she smiled.
Jonesy stood up and helped Nikki up. "Come on, I'll walk you home," Jonesy said. He had completely forgotten about Christina. Oh shit. Now what the hell am I suppose to do? Jonesy looked at Nikki. "Uh, sit down on the bench for a minute," he said helping her on the bench. "I have to make a phone call," he said walking over a little distance and he took out his black cell phone and quickly dialed Christina's number and he turned away from Nikki. "Oh Hi, listen I wouldn't be there as soon as I thought because I ran into Nikki and I have to take her home... it's kind of serious, but I'll be there as soon as I can...yes,... me too, bye!" he clipped his cell phone and he turned back to face Nikki. "I'll bring you home now," he said walking back over to her.
"Okay," Nikki looked at Jonesy strangely. It was obvious that he didn't call his mom. And why did he walk away to make the call, it was obvious he didn't want Nikki to know what was going on. "So Jonesy, how have you been the past week? Actually since I started acting like a bitch while I was with Stone. I have to admit I did ignore you while I was with him," she looked at Jonesy. "And I regret it because you mean more to me than him anyway," she smiled as they started to walk out of the park and back down the street towards Nikki's which was about a thirty minute walk.
"It's okay..." Jonesy looked down at Nikki and gazed into her eyes. "We all make mistakes," he said. But at least with every girlfriend I've had, I never did ignore Nikki... did I? he thought quietly to himself.
"Jonesy," Nikki said in a serious voice. "Can I ask you a question?" she asked.
"That doesn't really give me a choice, now does it?" Jonesy laughed. "But of course you can, you know that,"
"Do we still have a bound?" Nikki asked. "I mean like do you still feel like there's something between us?" she looked up at him and smiled. "You know that special something?" she held Jonesy's hand. "Because I do," she said. Nikki hugged Jonesy's tightly and started to rub his neck and chest. "I'm so stupid for ever letting you go..."
Jonesy blushed and started to get nervous. He was never able to turn Nikki down. How could he? But he had a girlfriend! He was with Christina. Nikki never even knew anything about her at all and now she was coming on to Jonesy... this was going to get pretty messed up. Jonesy just wrapped an arm around Nikki and smiled. "So Nikki..." he said smiling.
"Uh my question?" Nikki cocked up an eyebrow still cuddling into Jonesy.
"I...er..." Jonesy looked down into Nikki's eyes and he got so lost. He slowly closed his and lended down.
Nikki smiled as she closed hers and waited for Jonesy's lips to meet hers but they never. Their little 'moment' was interupted by someone yelling at them. Well, they was actually yelling at Jonesy. "JONESY GARCIA! WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU"RE DOING?" It was a raging Christina. Yes, Jonesy's girlfriend. "Jonesy I didn't think you'd be like trying to kiss another girl behind my back!" she walked up to him.
"Christina... I... listen, it was nothing, I was just so lost in the moment, Nikki and I... we're... we're..." Jonesy looked at Nikki. How could he put this in a way that wouldn't hurt either one of them? "Nikki and I are close and we have something special and I'm sorry I guess I got carried away... I didn't mean to do anything behind your back, I swear!" Jonesy looked at his girlfriend and smiled.
"I believe you," Christina smiled but she narrowed her eyes as she looked at Nikki. "And what the fuck do you think you're doing trying to get a kiss off of my sexy boyfriend, huh?" she asked.
"Excuse me?" Nikki looked at Jonesy. "You have a girlfriend?" Nikki felt like crying but she held it in. "Well Jonesy if you told me that you dumbass I would of never came on to you," she looked at Christina. "Trust me... he's... um... what's the word, he can be... stupid on times," she said.
"HEY!" Jonesy yelled.
Christina laughed. "Oh, I know," she looked at Nikki. "So... I heard that your boyfriend dumped you and left town, I would of kicked his ass," she said. "And I'm sorry for freaking out at you, I just don't want to lose Jonesy," she said. "He's the only person who truely cares about me,"
"What do you mean?" Nikki looked at her.
"Why don't we go out somewhere to get to know each other better while we sent Jonesy home?" Christina suggested.
Nikki laughed. "Leaving him out of it?" Nikki asked. "Sounds good to me, we can always meet up with him later on anyway," she looked at Jonesy. "Are you okay with this?" she asked.
"Yeah, I have to go over to Wyatt's anyway," Jonesy said. "His girlfriend just broke up with him and I'm sure he could use some comforting..." he said.
"What?" Nikki's eyes widened. "Is... Wyatt okay?" Nikki asked.
"I don't know, I'll let you know later on," Jonesy said.
Christina walked over to Jonesy and connected their lips. Nikki's heart sank and shattered into a million pieces. She started to get sick but she could not let anybody know about this. She didn't want Jonesy to know how badly she wanted them back together and she most definately couldn't let Christina know. Another secret that Nikki held was the fact that there was a chance that the baby growing inside of her could be Jonesy's. What if it was? Geez, everything would definately be in a complete mess then.
Jonesy smiled as he broke the kiss. "I'll see you later," he said. "Bye Nikki," he said to Nikki and he left.
Christina walked over to Nikki."So why don't we go out to some cafe or something and just talk because I swear I'd rather talk to a girl than Jonesy sometimes and that Caitlin missy gets right to me... too preppy and cuddly and Jen she's too nosey and... oh wait, I'm sorry aren't they your best friends?" Christina asked.
"Yeah but I still say the same things about them," Nikki told Christina.
Christina laughed."Maybe Jonesy actually does have sensible friends after all," she said.
Nikki just looked at Christina and smiled. What else could she do? She couldn't rip Christina's head off for being Jonesy's girlfriend. Even though her she wished that she could but she had to play nice. She had to be friends with her or she knew that there was a chance that she could end up losing Jonesy altogether and she really needed Jonesy by her side. "So Christina..." Nikki started a conversation when they found a cafe. "What's life like for you? You know besides for Jonesy?" she asked.
"Oh..." Christina looked down, he big chcolate eyes started to get watery. "I have no life other than Jonesy. My family hates me because I want to be an actor instead of a nurse like they want me to be... they are always drunk and well now my father is in jail because he abused me and my mother is always blaming me for everything..." Christina looked at Nikki. "I can trust you right?" she asked.
"You should of asked that before spilling out your feelings to me," Nikki said. "But yes you can trust me," Nikki said. "And I'm sorry, life must be hard for you, don't you have any friends besides for Jonesy and well his friends?" she asked.
"My friends all ditched me because I didn't want to do drugs..." Christina said. "I wasn't going to fuck up my life just so some people would like me, if they was my true friends they would of stayed by my side no matter what," she looked at Nikki.
"I got to agree with you there," Nikki folded her arms across her chest. "Although my friends are really annoying, they are always there for me. Especially Jonesy, he's been there for me more than anyone."
"Really?" Christina eyed Nikki. "You and Jonesy? There seems to be a story here," she said. "I've heard Jonesy mention your name a million times..." she smiled.
Nikki blushed."Jonesy and I used to... date and we've always been close and that. I guess you could say we've always had a... special something, I don't know what to say about it now though," she explained to Christina.
"Oh," Christina said."Well, why don't we get something to drink and then go back to Jonesy's for a while to watch some movies or something," she suggested.
Nikki thought for a moment. For sure Jonesy would be making out with Christina and they would be cuddled together during the movie while she was sat down all by herself. "Well sure," Nikki said."I'm sure Wyatt will be there too anyway," she said.
"That's great! You just got dumped and so did Wyatt! It can be like a double date!" Christina smiled.
Nikki smiled weakly. A double date? As if in her on a date with Wyatt? Somehow it didn't sound that bad but she knew deep in her heart she loved Jonesy, damnit, there was a chance that she was pregnant with his child . "Sure..." she said in an unsure voice.
That evening it started to cool off as Nikki and Christina slowly walked over to Jonesy's and spoke about just anything that popped into their heads. "I think I'll call Jonesy and let him know that we are coming over," Christina pulled put her blue and red cell phone and dialed Jonesy's number. "Hey Hun. Listen Nikki and I are on our way over... I was thinking that we could all probably watch some movies... Wyatt's there too? That's great! Everyone else is coming... okay cool. See you soon, Love you!" Christina looked at Nikki and smiled. "Yup, Wyatt's there..." she said. "And the rest of the gang is coming too," she told Nikki.
"Great," Nikki cracked a smile. She was really not looking forward to tonight. For sure Jen was going to tell her off about how she have been acting lately and having to go through watching Jonesy suck face with Christina was just going to break her heart. Sure, Christina seemed like a pretty cool chick but Nikki loved Jonesy and she just couldn't bare to see him with another girl. It just wasn't fair but then again Nikki did dump Jonesy and he did make many attempts at trying to get her back but she turned him down so many times and now she felt like kicking her own ass for doing so.
They slowly walked into Jonesy's house and Jonesy greeted Christina with a passionate kiss while Jen greeted Nikki by grabbing her by the arms and draggin her up to her bedroom. "So? You've decided to rejoin the group, huh?" Jen glared at Nikki.
"You don't even know what I've been through," Nikki snapped while gently touching her stomach.
"Oh what? When Stone was actually with you, you just had to go suck face or whatever with him instead of being by Jonesy's side when he was in the hospital because your boyfriend put him in there?" Jen looked at Nikki. "And so Stone dumps you- and you stay away from all of us except for like a few conversations... Nikki like grow up! You've avoided us far too long, it's time for you to take action and keep your friends before you lose them because with the way you've acted lately I'm surpirsed Jonesy doesn't hate your guts," she said.
"Yeah well that's not your decision or your business," Nikki glared at Jen. "And I've spoken with Jonesy about what happened and he forgives me and you know what? I didn't do one thing to you or anybody else... when I was heart-broken and left alone nobody else was by my side!" Nikki said.
"Yeah well it's not like we tried. You avoided us!" Jen snapped.
"Yeah well maybe you should of tried harder because with you, you'll do anything in your power to..." Nikki stopped."I can't do this, I don't want to fight it's not good for me or for the..." she shut up.
"For the what?" Jen cocked up an eyebrow.
Nikki looked at Jen. She had her brown hair up in a pony tail because it had been a long warm day. "Nothing..." Nikki snapped.
"Fine then, don't tell me if you don't want to but don't go getting all bitchy at me about it," Jen said. "And by the way Jonesy's new girlfriend is great and he loves her very, very much," Jen grinned evily.
"Really? Oh and did you hear about Lisa?" Nikki said referring to her cousin that Jude had a huge crush on the summer before. "She's moving out here and I am going to set them up," Nikki loved revenge, especially when she got it on Jen. She and Jen have been best friends for a long time but Jen really pissed her off a lot.
"You wouldn't dare..." Jen glared at Nikki."You know what Jude means to me!" she said.
"Oh but Jen, it might ruin the friendship..." Nikki said in a mocking tone. "Like you know... remember what you had preiviously said about Jonesy and I dating? Um?" she glared at Jen.
"Yeah well, that's different and besides I let you guys go out after," Jen said.
"Actually, us going out had nothing to do with you, it was a decision Jonesy and I had made on our own. Don't you even get it in your head that you had power over Jonesy and I because you never did!" Nikki told Jen.
"Okay, okay, can we stop this now?" Jen asked. "I don't want our reunion to be like this," she said.
"Reunion? Oh my Lord..." Nikki rolled her eyes.
"Well, hey, what can I say, I did miss you," Jen said hugging Nikki.
Nikki slowly patted Jen on the back."Yeah, I've missed you too I guess..." Nikki smiled. "I've missed everyone..." she looked up at the ceiling. "So Christina... how serious is Jonesy with her?" she asked Jen.
"Well... pretty serious I guess... she's like the new you only I highly doubt she's replaced you in Jonesy's heart..." Jen said. "And Nikki?" she asked.
"Yeah?" Nikki cocked up an eyebrow.
"You're not going to set up Jude with Lisa are you?" Jen asked.
" I would do it to you if I had to plot revenge on ya," Nikki told Jen.
" Really?" Jen laughed. "Anyway, let's go back downstairs, everybody's there," she said. "But just one more thing... are you sure you're okay with Jonesy and Christina," she said.
"Of course I am okay with them dating! It doesn't borther me at all," Nikki lied.
"Good, now lets go downstairs and watch some movies," Jen said.
They walked downstairs and they found Wyatt there waiting. "Hey Nikki," he smiled. "I'm glad you decided to come tonight," he said.
"Yeah, me too," Nikki smiled walking up to Wyatt and hugging him tightly. "I'm about you getting dumped again," she said.
"Yeah well, that's okay... I think that I'll be able to get through this break-up a lot easier," Wyatt smiled looking at Nikki and placing an arm around her. "Come on lets go watch a movie," he said.
That is why we're all here," Nikki laughed.
Wyatt smiled. "I've missed you so much Nik," he said."I'm glad you're back," "Me too Wyatt, me too," Nikki looked over and saw Jonesy and Christina kissing very passionately. She closed he eyes and started to shake again. She did that a lot lately, especially when she got nervous or upset.
"Nikki, are you okay?" Wyatt asked.
"I'm fine," Nikki lied looking at Wyatt. She smiled."I'm just thinking about Stone that's all," she said.
It didn't take long for Jonesy and Christina to join the group before they all walked down to the basement living room. Nikki tried to hardest not look at them or to even think that they were together but she couldn't help it. It was just like an itch on her back that wouldn't go away and the pain she felt inside was unbearable. Adding the fact that she was pregnant was hard too. Only two people knew besides for the doctors of course and that was Jonesy and Stone. Both thinking Stone was the father but with Nikki being the only one knowing that there was a possiblity that Jonesy was the father.
Nikki was sat by Wyatt on the couch, next to Wyatt was Caitlin and then there was Jen and Jude. Jonesy and Christina was on the love seat just across the room and they weren't really paying much attention to the tv screen, they were too focused on each other and Nikki wasn't into the movie at all either, she was too busy looking at Jonesy and Christina make out. It borthered her so much but yet she still couldn't look away. "Nikki... are you okay?" Wyatt whrispered. He noticed that a few tears were started to form in her eyes.
Nikki looked up at Wyatt and frowned."Uh..." she didn't want to lie to him again. "No," she told him.
"Want to talk about it? We can go out into the kitchen?" Wyatt asked.
Nikki thought about it for a moment. Maybe talking to Wyatt about her problems would make her feel better. "Okay," she said getting up and slowly walking into the kitchen with Wyatt close behind her.
Okay, so I know it sucked and it was lame but I'm a crappy writer anyway so I'm just going to leave it there and try to work on the next chapter. Alrighty? xoxo
