Chapter Eight: Together for Never
Normal POV:
Nick pushed Kara away. "Look Tori it's not what it looks like," Nick said. The tears were pouring down Tori's face.
"What are you talking about. You said you loved me! You also said you would always be right there! What the hell happened to all of that?!" Tori yelled. Nick walked in front of her and touched her arm. "Don't you dare touch me!"
"Tori, she just came on to me," Nick tried to explain.
"Leave! Just leave! I never want to see you again!" Tori yelled.
"Tori-" Nick tried to say.
"Did you hear what I just said? I said leave!"
"Fine but just to let you know I love you, not loved," Nick said and left.
"Listen Tori-"
"Kara you leave too." Tori said. Kara left without a word.
Nick's POV:
I hate Kara! Now Tori hates me. My life now officially sucks. I need to get her back. I went back downstairs and went outside. I sat on the bench in the yard.
"Hey Nick!" I turned around it was Kevin.
"Oh hey," I said in sad voice.
"What happened? I saw you running outside," Kevin said as he sat next to me.
"I was so stupid. You know Kara my ex-girlfriend?" I started to explain.
"Yeah."
"Well I went up to Tori's room to wait for her to come up. I was there for about 30 seconds and Kara came in and told me how she liked me and she kept on getting closer and closer. Then she kissed me and Tori walked in, well yeah she told me she never wanted to see me again," I explained. I started to cry.
"Dude that stinks. Don't worry she will come back," Kevin was trying to cheer me up.
"Kevin I don't think she will. What if she never does?" I asked.
"She will. Just believe." Kevin said.
"Ok."
"Do you want to come back to the party?" Kevin asked.
"No I might later but not now."
"Ok I'm going to go back in, bye." Kevin got up and left. I just sat there and thought about how stupid I am and how to get her back.
Tori's POV:
I slammed the door shut. I felt like I could scream. Why do I trust boys? They are so stupid and really good at breaking your heart. I sat on my bed and cried into a pillow. Bang, the door flew open. It was Joe and Summyr they were making out. "Hello!"
They broke apart. "Oh sorry Tori I didn't-," he saw she was crying. "What's wrong?"
"Your brother. He is a cheater!"
"Nick? He would never cheat on a girl," Joe said and sat on the bed.
"Well he did with Kara!" I said.
"I don't see him doing that. I feel so bad," Joe said he put his arm around me.
"Yeah I feel so bad. I'm sure it was Kara putting the move on Nick," Summyr said.
"I told him I never want to see him again and I mean it."
"Wow, my brother is that low," Joe said.
"Apple bottom jeans boots with the fur, sorry I got into that," Summyr sang. I smiled. Summyr is nice; she is also really funny just like Joe.
Joe's POV:
Wow, Nick is so dumb.
"It's ok," I whispered to Tori. I was trying to comfort her (I'm so bad at this stuff), my phone was vibrating. I took it out and answered it. "Hello."
"Joe, did you hear what happened with Nick and Tori?" Kevin said - well he kinda yelled.
"Yeah. I'm with Tori right now."
"Where are you?"
"In her room. Why?" I asked but he hung up on me.
"Who was that?" Summyr asked with a worried look on her face.
"Kevin." and right on that cue Kevin ran in.
"Tori are you ok? I feel so bad and I'm so sorry," Kevin blurted out.
"Yeah I know. I just didn't think he would do that," she said.
"I was just with Nick and-" Kevin started.
"Don't say that name to me," Tori said with fire in her eyes.
"Ok well he said that it was Kara and he feels so bad. Come here I want to show you something," Kevin said and gestured for her to go over to the window. Tori walked over to the window and Summyr and I followed. She had a view of the front yard. There was a bench with Nick sitting on it. I could tell he was crying.
"Nick barley ever cries," I said.
"I don't care he should know how I feel," Tori said. I know she wouldn't be able to forgive him; I had to think of something.
"Can you guys leave? I kinda want to be alone," Tori said and sat on her bed. I looked at Summyr and Joe and nodded.
"If you need anything, you can call me. You have my number right?" I asked she nodded. I turned to leave.
"Wait Joe, there is something I want to tell you. Alone," she said. I turned to face her and Summyr and Kevin walked out the room and shut the door.
"What is it?" I asked.
"When Nick left he told me something. It was I love you, not loved, and it is kinda scaring me but I don't know why."
"Don't worry, he's saying that because he still likes you," I said.
"Ok, well I want to be alone," she said. I walked out the room. I turned to Summyr and Kevin.
"Did you hear that?" I asked.
"Yeah we listened through the door," Kevin said with a guilty look on his face.
"Ok so I don't need to explain. I need to see Nick," I said.
"Yeah. I'll come too," Summyr said. I took her hand and took her outside. He was sitting there, looking like there is no hope in the world. He looked up. I could see the tears in his eyes building up.
"Hey man I heard what happened. That completely sucks," I said in a quiet voice.
"Yeah, I can't believe I lost her," he said. "Do you know how she is?"
"Yeah I just saw her, she is completely crushed. She was sitting on her bed crying last time I saw her," I said.
"I just wish there was something I could do, to get her back," he said.
"I'll think I have a plan but I will tell you later. I just need to think it out," I said.
"Yeah, Joe will think of something," Summyr said. After 10 minutes Nick was still crying but he finally stopped.
"I think we should go home," Kevin said.
"Yeah, Joe can you go tell Tori we're leaving?" Nick asked me.
"Of course, I'll be right back," I said. I ran through the house back up to Tori's room. I opened the door. She was in there with Samantha.
"Hey Joe!" Samantha said.
"Hey I just wanted to tell you we are going, I'll see you later?" I said.
"Thanks for coming. I might see you later, but thanks for being here for me," she said with a smile.
"Bye, I'm glad you're better." I waved.
"Bye!" she said.
I shut the door behind myself and I thought I wonder why she is so happy right now. she was so sad before. Does she still like Nick? I went back outside.
"What happened?" Nick asked when I got back outside.
"Well she said she might see me soon. I don't really know what that means. And that is what basically happened." I said leaving out that she was smiling.
"Oh that is it?" Nick asked in disappointment.
"Yeah that is it," I said.
"Ok let's go," Kevin said. We walked to the car and went back to our house.
Tori's POV:
When Joe left the room I sat and tried to stop crying but I couldn't I truly did love Nick. I sat there for about 1 minute and there was a knock on the door. Please don't be Nick Please. "Come in." it was Samantha. I got up and ran and hugged her.
"This is a nice welcome," she said.
"Yeah well I just really need a friend right now."
"What happened?"
"Nick and I broke up."
"No way! You two were perfect downstairs," she said.
"Yeah well I was suppose to meet him up here and when I walked in he was kissing Kara," I said tears rolled down my face.
"Wow. Are you still friends with Kara after she did that?" she asked in astonishment.
"Well I haven't really talked to her but kinda I don't really like her right know," I said.
"Yeah she is kinda a big fat girl with millions of zits and did I mention a player?" she said. I cracked up with laughter. At that moment Joe walked in.
"Hey Joe!" Samantha said.
"Hey I just wanted to tell you we are going, I'll see you later?" He said.
"Thanks for coming. I might see you later, but thanks for being here for me," I said with a smile.
"Bye, I'm glad you're better," he waved.
"Bye!" I said. He is so nice I thought.
"That is sweet," Samantha said.
"Yeah do you think…"I started.
"Nick sent him?" Sam cut me off.
"Yeah I think so," I said.
"Lets look out the window to see." We walked over to the window. Joe was talking to Nick. Maybe Nick did send him up here. They walked away back to there car. Joe and Summyr were holding hands. I watched them walk back to their car and they drove away. I sighed.
"I wonder if we will get back together but I kinda don't want to," I said.
"I kinda want you to, but it is your choice," she said.
"Yeah I don't know," I said. Samantha's cell phone went off.
"Hello………….ok………when………..alright see you then………bye," she said.
"Who was that?" I asked.
"My dad he is picking me up in about 20 minutes," she said.
"Ok, do you want to go dance?" I asked. "It will keep my mind off Nick. Please?" I begged. Sam doesn't really dance that often.
"Fine but only for you," she said.
"One question do I look good?"
"Yeah you look divine!" she giggled. We ran downstairs with our arms linked. We heard the song "Our Song" I love this song!
Our song is a slamming
screen door,
Sneakin' out late, tapping on your window
When
we're on the phone and you talk real slow
Cause it's late and your
mama don't know
Our song is the way you laugh
The first date
"man, I didn't kiss her, and I should have"
And when I
got home ... before I said amen
Asking God if He could play it
again
We danced to the music till I heard this: I told you I made dinner plans for you and me and nobody else. I lost it. I cried right on the spot. Everyone was looking at me like I was crazy. I ran back up to my room. This time my brother followed me.
"What is wrong?" he asked.
"Nothing is wrong," I said.
"Yes there is. Tell me now!" he yelled.
"Fine!" I yelled back. "We broke up. Ok?"
"That idiot!" He yelled. "I'll kill him!" He ran out the room.
"NO AARON COME BACK HERE!!" but it was too late I went to the window and saw his car leaving the drive way.
