EXTRAORDINARY GIRL

Brookes Point Of View

Duke won the basketball game 111-103. Brooke ended up having fun. Only because she was with Nathan. "Did you enjoy the game?'' he asked still pumped from the win.

"Yeah it was ok. The best part was when the people in front of us started a fight with you because I was cheering against Duke. You know you didnt have to stick up for me" she said looking into his blue eyes.

"I could of but I wanted them to know not to fight with my friend. They were jerks anyway! Who cares what they feel. I could take them both on easily." he joked knowng it was true anyway.

"Well look whos full of himself tonight!" she said laughing at his cocky smile. "You are a really great friend you know that? Your like the best friend I've ever had!". "Really, best friend?" he said expecting her to say she wasnt his best friend but Haleys best friend.

"You sure are best friend! Now that we are we need to make up nicknames for each other! Your nickname is..." is stopped and thought for a few seconds "Blue! Thats what I'll call you!"

"Why Blue?" he asked with a funny look on his face "Because your eyes are blue and Dukes color is blue! duh!! "Ok I get it! Your nickname is... Boomer!
Yeah I like that!"

"Boomer I love that name!" she said her smile as wide as her face. "OMG two B's thats hysterical! Blue and Boomer are best buds!"

"Thats pretty funny! So are you ready to go to bed energizer bunny?" "It's Boomer to you! 'Night Blue." she said as she walked into the bedroom. "Sweet dreams Boomer" he laughed as he said her nickname as he layed down on the couch.

Suddenly she appeared again. "Hey Blue" she whispered "Yeah Boomer?" he asked. "Will you stay with me tonight?" she asked looking down. "I'd love to!" he said following her into the bedroom. As they layed down she said "This is nice"

"Yeah it is" he said smiling. "One more thing Blue. Would you hold me until I fall asleep?" she asked thinking he would say no. Without a word he slipped his strong arms around her. For the first time in the past few weeks she felt safe.

"Thanks Nate" she whispered laying a kiss on his cheek. "Anytime" he said holding her closer.
