Author's Note: This chapter takes place after "Table 34." Enjoy!
She didn't want to listen to Taylor Swift alone. But that didn't mean she wanted to listen to her with Nick.
He was the reason she was single again. He was the reason Sam left. All for a kiss that he let her know, meant absolutely nothing to her. So why couldn't she tell him to go away?
Oh wait, she could.
"Go away, Nick," she snapped at him.
Nick stopped dancing.
"Look, Jess-"
"No, 'look Jess'!" she told him. "I am mad at you. You homewrecked me and Sam and you know how much I liked him!"
"I'm sorry, Jess. I didn't mean for that to happen." he frowned, avoiding her eyes.
"Then what did you mean?" she asked.
"By what?" he shifted nervously, eying the door.
Jess moved her body so that she was in front of the exit, he was not going to get away from her.
"The kiss," she answered plainly. "Why did you kiss me?"
"I told you, Jess. It didn't mean anything." Nick told her.
"Oh, okay," Jess' words dripped with sarcasm. "Then you won't mind if I do this."
She walks up to him, fully intending to plant one on him when he dodges her.
"What are you doing, Jess?" he practically screams.
"If you can give me a meaningless kiss, why can't I give you one?" Jess challenges him. It wouldn't be the first time one of them tried to use a kiss to prove the other wrong.
"Because..."
Before he can think of an answer he's dodging another kiss from Jess. With no other way to avoid her, Nick turns and runs away from her. Jess chases him around and around the couch.
"Get back here, Miller!" she screams, determined to catch him, fully aware that this is one of the weirder things she's done. And that is saying something.
Finally she tackles him, pinning him to the ground.
"Why won't you kiss me?" Jess asks, searching his eyes.
"Because it would mean something!" Nick yells without thinking.
Jess' eyes widen in surprise as she loosens her grip on his wrists.
