Benji

Nicky walked in the garage behind Jimmy and Jason and shrieked when she saw the car. She tackled Benji and Evan both down and they smiled as she hugged them. Benji blushed as Nicky kissed him on the cheek and only Emma caught this. Benji hid it as Nicky ran over to Jimmy and kissed his cheek.

"Thank you so much you guys!" Nicky yelled to them and Benji smiled to her. Nicky smiled back and smiled, still not noticing his face. Something was going on between these two and Emma could see that it was as clear as day. Emma waited until after the party had started to find Nicky and she pulled her aside.

"What's going on between you and Benji?" Emma asked Nicky, whose face suddenly went white and pale.

"Nothing, Emma, nothing." Nicky broke free of Emma's hold on her arm and ran to find the one person that she trusted more than Jimmy.

"Benji, I need to talk to you." Nicky said to him once she found him in the crowd standing completely alone and looking sad.

"Alright, come on Nicky." Benji took her hand and led her to the garage unaware that Emma was following them.

"Listen, Benji, I know that you like me." Nicky began and Benji blushed again at her remark and smiled.

"So, what?" Benji then realized that Nicky was getting at something and he was getting a little annoyed. Nicky knew Benji had a temper that when threatened would spiral out of control and was often deadly if he got angry enough. Nicky could tell he was already angry and so she tried to pick her words carefully.

"So you need to not like me anymore." Benji started to grit his teeth so Nicky rushed her words. "You're like a brother to me Benji and I don't want to be with you. Emma saw you blushing at me."

"Oh, yes Emma is a sweet girl isn't she, unlike you." Benji was starting to move towards Nicky, who was stumbling back and over things. "See Nicky that's what I don't get about you. You flirt with me. You lead me on and then expect me to let it all just go."

"Please don't hurt me, Benji." Nicky was crying uncontrollably and she was up against a wall with nowhere to go.

"Get your slimy paws off of her now, Benji!" Evan's voice yelled to him as he walked over to him with a wooden baseball bat in his hand. Jason, Matt, Jimmy, and Emma were behind him and Emma had a kendo stick, while Jason had a crowbar, Matt held a baseball bat, and Jimmy held a steel baseball bat.

"Come here, Nicky. It's okay now." Jason yelled to her and she ran over to the group. Emma caught her and held her tight to her body.

"Its okay, Nicky. It's okay now. Let's go home." Emma whispered to her and stroked her hair. Emma could already tell that Nicky was upset.

"No, don't hurt Benji! Please don't hurt him!" Nicky cried from Emma's arms. Emma looked at the guys who looked at them and Emma nodded.

"Listen to what she says." Emma said to them and Matt nodded throwing down his weapon along with Jason and Jimmy. This left only Evan who looked livid.

"I told you to control your self, Benji. I asked you nicely every day not to do this." Evan was remaining as calm as he could. Nicky went up behind him and put a hand on his shoulder.

"No, it's just not worth it, Evan." Nicky whispered and he nodded throwing down his bat and walking away with the group. Jimmy took Nicky from Evan as they walked over to the group and Nicky's face was beginning to clear up.

When the group went back out to the party it was starting to empty out and so the group decided to leave. Nicky got in her new car and Jimmy got in with her. They left first and headed back to the house. Emma and Matt followed in the car with Jason.

When they got back to the house everyone went to bed. It hadn't been a very good party at all or a good birthday for Nicky, but when Emma and Matt checked in on Nicky and Jimmy they were sleeping comfortably in each other's arms. There was always tomorrow and everyone in the house knew that. So with that, Emma and Matt went to bed and fell asleep quickly. But what they didn't know was that trouble was brewing and old enemies had heard of Matt's return. This wasn't going to end pretty.
