Loving From a View
Chapter 1
Where are you Going
Disclaimer: I don't own nothing but the plot and Jeremy and a few others that might come along.
"Where are you going?" I asked concerned. I may not really act like I like Nicole but I do.
"Aw you care?" Nicole asked sweetly.
I rolled my eyes and ignored the question. "Where are you going," I asked again.
"My grandma just called she wants to go on a cruise with me," Nicole said while throwing some clothes in a suitcase.
"How long?" I asked while I watched Nicole pack about 10 outfits already.
"Only nine days," she said while packing some more.
"So why are you packing so many clothes?" I asked.
"Because you never might know how the weather is, who is going to be there, if you spill something on your clothes, if you have a date, if..." she said.
"Okay, okay," I said while rolling my eyes. Boy was I sorry I asked.
"Can you do me a favor?" Nicole asked while pulling out her suitcase to the door.
"What?" I asked.
"Watch Jeremy for me," Nicole said with puppy dog eyes.
"Why don't you asked Zoey?" I said. She usually does asked Zoey to do these things.
"Because I want her to be with Chase by now, I want you to get with Logan. Zoey would just use watching Jeremy as an excuse you wouldn't do that. You would do both," she answered. By now she was outside dragging her suitcase.
"Okay. Whatever." I said.
"Come on, lets go say bye to Zoey and everyone else," Nicole said.
Everyone else? That means Logan too.
"I don't know," I admitted.
"Come on Logan is not going to bite," Nicole said. " I know how it is to get scared and loss your words sometimes."
How does did girl know so much. Nicole is nervous about boys? Ha I thought the day would never come.
"It is not that," I yelled.
"So then come," she challenged me.
"Why?"
"Because I dare you," Nicole said with a smirk.
"Fine," I never let no say I can't do something.
Now here I am walking down the hall to see Logan. Just be of my stupid pride. That I could never let a bet go. We walked in silence. Nicole with a smirk on her face and a frown on mine. We reached the room. I signed.
Zoey was on the sofa. Chase was next to her. Michael on on the small chair. Logan was lying down on another sofa. I think he was sleeping. I hoped he was. I think Chase and Michael were talking about something while, Zoey was reading a J-14 magazine.
"Nicole were are you going?" Zoey asked walking up to Nicole after putting a magazine down.
"On a cruise," Nicole squealed.
"How long?" Zoey asked.
"Nine days."
"Oh," Zoey said sad. "Right now?"
"Yeah," Nicole sounded a bit mad that she didn't have time to plan this.
"Oh," Zoey said again. I think she was lost to words.
"Well bye," Nicole said as she drop the bags to give Zoey and hug. I think she was on the way to tears. Wow these girls are cry babies.
Michael and Chase got up to say there goodbyes. Michael had hit Logan's feet. Logan groaned.
I close my eyes to see if I was seeing things. I was scared to open my eyes. When I did Logan was walking over to Nicole and I was standing right next to her. I wanted to run but my legs felt like metal.
"Umm..bye Nicole," Michael said while putting one hand behind his head after Zoey and Nicole stopped hugging.
Nicole grabbed him and hugged him tight. Bye now she was crying. I looked at Michael and Logan's faces. They seemed scared to say bye to Nicole if it contain a hug and tears.
"Bye Nicole," Chase said when it was his turn.
She grabbed him and hugged him too. I think I saw Zoey face tighten. I was feeling bad for Nicole. Wait that means she is going to hug Logan too. She can't. I hope she doesn't. I pray she doesn't. She does. When I open my eyes to see Nicole and Logan hugging. You had to see Logan's face. Boy was he scared more than anything. I wanted to laugh. I did. Big mistake. He looked up to see me. I stopped like that. He looked up again confused. He studied me. He realized it. I was staring he was too. Our eyes met. Nicole let go of him. He didn't move neither did I. Our eyes were still connected. The room was quiet or so it had seemed to me. Nicole came up to me and hugged me. Our eyes lost each other. Nicole said something to me but I couldn't make out. I said bye and told her to be safe. We walked her to the front of P.C.A. I cried a bit and Zoey was full out crying. She got into the cab. It was white with black letters. It left and puff of smoke as it drove off. I looked up to the sky. It was a clear and beautiful day. Nice to go take a walk. That is what I am going to do.
"Bye," I told everyone.
Logan looked at me and smiled. I smiled back.
"Where are you going?" Zoey asked.
"Just to take a walk," I answered facing forward.
"Okay, just be back in a hour!" Zoey answered back in a mother-tone.
"Whatever!" I yelled back while rolling my eyes forgetting that they couldn't see me.
I walked down the path pondering and alone. No body was there. It was quiet. It was perfect I could just walk and think. I thought about Logan. What had happen. Why were we looking at each other. Is it really easy to see that I like him. Nicole guessed it. I wonder if he had. In the distance I thought I saw to people talking. As I came closer I realized they were auguring. Guess who it was? It was that boy Nicole likes and some girl. She was fairly petty. She had and nice skin tone. Blue or green eyes it was hard to tell from where I was standing. She had brownish hair with natural blonde highlights. I slowed down my space to hear what they were saying.
"I don't want you to go!" Jeremy yelled.
"I have to! You know that!" she said about ready to go into tears.
"I don't want you to go and leave me. What happen to being together forever?" I thought you loved me?" Jeremy said angry hurt and confused.
It this point I was behind a bush. I not noisy but Nicole told me to do this. It was kinda fun. I felt like a spy. I also felt sorry for him. He was loosing the one he loved. I wonder why?
"Jeremy don't make this harder than this is," the girl said in tears.
"Why don't we we have a long distance relationship, Kat?" he asked now sad more than anything.
Kat? Probably short for Katherine.
"You know it won't work," she said in tears.
"No you just don't want it to work. If you really do care for me as you say you do, you would try,"he said while turning his back and walking away. He turned back around to say his last words. "I cannot believe for this long I thought you loved and cared for me!"He left the girl crying as she fell to the floor in tears.
Wow. I thought I ran back to my room and dialed Nicole's cellphone number. Nothing. No answer. She must be in the plane by now. They make you turn them off for some strange reason. I try her again when she gets to her grandma's house. I took a deep breath and thought things over. I felt bad for the boy but I guess that means he is single know. Which is good news for Nicole. Then it also meant that he still might be caught up for this girl. I laid down on my bed when the door opened. It was Zoey and Chase and Logan. I wonder were Michael is? Oh my God Logan is here. How is my hair, since I just ran about half a mile? How did I look? My make-up? I got to act natural.
"Where is Michael?" I asked while picking up a magazine.
"He had tennis practice," Logan answered while taking a seat on my bed.
"Tennis?" I asked.
"Yeah," Chase answered. "He likes some girl on the team."
"Oh," I answered and went back to my magazine.
I felt something tug at my feet. I looked up. It was Logan.
"What?" I answered sweetly.
"We got to talk," he said. I followed him out the room. Zoey looked surprised and held up two thumb signs. I was smiling in side but was acting like nothing had happen on the outside. What are we going to talk about?
