A/N: Sorry, sorry, SORRY! that i haven't updated in forever! With school stepping into my schedule, I've been busy. Okay enjoy! ;)
Nicky P.O.V
Morning light poured into my room as I heard the door creak open. Of course, it was Rose.
"Well your up early." she said to me. I was sitting at my desk looking out the window
"No I'm not, I never slept." I stood and turned around just in time to see the shock in her face.
"You know that's not going to help anything. Oh, Nicky, your face!" I touched the corner of my lip. He skin was broke when I was punched in the face, I guess now here was a jagged scab on my face.
"It's fine." I sat back down and crossed my legs.
"Okay then, let's just let last night pass on and get ready for work.
"No" I said without turning my head. "I'm not going."
"What? You have to. If you don't, this will never just blow over."
"I know, but I can't….. I just can't…." there was a long pause.
"Can't what?" I sighed.
"I can' see him… Sullivan….." I felt a tear roll down my face. "What have I done?"
Sully P.O.V
I was ling down on my bed looking up at the ceiling. My mind was blank; all I could think of was last night, with Nicky. I could see the fear and pain in her eyes. Her words echoed in my head.
"You're a part of the un-finished story. Anything can happen. But the book must close, someday"
It freaked me out a little bit. But it was true, sadly, and I could tell she was dying inside. The alarm clock went off as the time changed to 6:10 Mike came in and walked to the bed side.
"Oh, you're awake. Did you sleep at all?" I shook my head. "Dude, you know you're no supposed to do that.
"I know, but…." I sighed at the thought of Nicky, ", never mind." I got up and walked out of my room. "Let's just get to work." To be honest, I didn't want to go. If I looked at Nicky today, I would crumble.
At the factory, I tried to hide my "emotions" as best I could. Only Mike could tell I was still sad and worried. I scared okay and didn't see Nicky. Ha didn't surprise me. I tried my best not to make eye contact with her, or even glance at her, and I did a pretty good job at that. Randall was acting wired though. But then again, he's a creep. I left the factory late and, apparently, so did Nicky. I tried to avoid her but I'm an idiot.I tripped and fell over as I was leaving. She lifted her head from her desk at the sound of a loud thud.
"Sully!" She exclaimed. "I didn't even know you came to work. Of course, I did try to avoid you." She sort of was not telling me directly.
"It's okay, I did the same thing." I was getting up and started to studded. "I mean to you. Well, I was really trying not look at you. Not that you don't look good or anything. I mean you look fine." She raised her eyebrow at me. "You know what, I'm just going to shut-up now." I walked over to her.
"Yeah, you do that."There was an awkward silence.
"So, what were you doing here so late?" I asked her. She looked down and whispered to herself
"I didn't want to go home." She looked back up at me. "What about you? You are the one who tried to sneak out." She said as if she thought I didn't hear what she whispered.
"Nothing. I'm just here. What were you doing over there? Writing?" She looked over her shoulder.
"No. I was drawing. Until someone interrupted me." She looked at me and gave a fake smirk.
"Cool. Can I see?" At that question, she looked slightly embarrassed.
"No. There not that good. You shouldn't look at them." She paused then added "And please don't beg to see them." I sighed and shrugged.
"Sure." Another awkward silence fell upon us. So finally, I asked something I doubted she'd say yes to. "Could I, uh, walk you home?" She looked at me and said the unthinkable.
"Yeah. I… I'd like that. I looked a her, stunned.
"Really? Wow. Should we go then?" She looked back at her desk hen looked back at me.
"Sure, just let me ge my stuff together." She started to walk to her desk.
"Could I help?" SHe sopped and turned around.
"No!" She said and walked towards her desk once more. Well, I tried. After she ordered her stuff and fixed her desk, we left. As we walked out of the factory she stopped. "Ah! I forgot something!" She ran back in before the door closed. She poked her head back out. "Wait here." She said and left. I walked to the wall and leaned agenst it. A few seconds past then I saw something from the corner of my eye. I could have sworn I turned color, or slithered away, or something! I Turned quickly to see that what ever it was, it was completely gone and without a trace. I looked around then just shrugged it off and figured it was just my imagination. I scanned he area once more, then sat down. A minute or two past before Nicky walked back out. She was sort of hopping on one foot. I though it strange until I realized what she was doing. She was trying to clasp the anklet and run at the same time. She clipped it the asked frantically.
"Did anything happen!?" She looked at me with a worried expression and I pondered whether to tell her of the shadowy hing or not. I decided not to.
"No Just me and the slight breeze." She seemed to relax a little bit.
"Oh, good. well, let's go then." I was later when I wished I confessed the truth.
