"Morning Eva." Nico said in her ear, and gently kissing her cheek. She smiled, snuggling up to him more. He smiled and put his arms around her, placing kisses on her lips over and over.
"Morning." She said between them. He kept kissing her, making his way down to her stomach, where he gently caressed her, being as gentle as ever. She smiled, kissing the top of his head. He looked up and kissed her passionately. It wasn't always like this though. This duet had sung some sour songs together. And it all started when their moms were in the hospital in labor.
"So, boy or girl?" Gina Sandberg asked to the lady next to her.
"Girl, you?" Tiffany Affler replied, grateful for the company.
"Boy." They started talking and soon Gina was wheeled away into motherhood. When she came back she was holding a little squalling baby boy named Nico. Tiffany was taken into motherhood a day and a half later. By then the two were best friends. Tiffany came out of the room holding a small, bald baby girl named Evangeline. The two new mothers had great plans for their children, but none of them were quite like what actually happened so many years later.
By the time the two babies had grown up into rebellious teenagers, Nico and Evangeline were as tight as their mothers. Maybe tighter. Sure, everyone thought that they were dating, but in reality they were just really good friends.
"EVA!!!" Nico said in mock peppiness when he saw his friend. God she looks good today. But nooo, she just HAS to like stupid Paul. He thought.
NICO!!!" Eva said back laughing as she hugged him.
"What's up?" Nico asked, keeping one arm around her. Eva was tiny for her age, at seventeen she was only five-four. Nico, though, was seventeen and five-eleven.
"Mr. Lowman's room." She answered, straight faced. Nico laughed, lightly smacking the back of her head.
"No wonder your mom hates you so much, your 109 pounds of smart-ass." He said. She smacked him as hard as she could, but didn't really hurt him all that much.
"At least I'm not a fat giant." She said, laughing. He grinned.
"Wanna cut today?"
"Don't I always?" The two left. It was a normal day in Helena, Montana. They got in there cars and drove to Eva's house, dropped off her car and the two decided to go to the little shopping center a few miles away.
"So, to the music store or the movies?"
"Music store. Then we'll see if we have enough to see a movie." She said, walking toward the store. Nico caught up and grabbed her hand. She smiled, and they went into the store. They came out about a half-hour later, Eva holding three new CD's.
"Movies now?" Nico asked, putting his arm around her.
"Yeah, but what's playing?" She asked, looking around.
"Let's go find out."
"Okay." They got to the movies, and saw The Toy Story and Toy Story 2 3D double-feature.
"That. Was. AWESOME!!!" Eva said, grinning. Nico laughed and ruffled her hair. God I wish he would like me, Eva thought, now walking beside him, but he only sees me as a child, always to be played with, to hold, but nothing else. I HATE IT!!! I wish I was at least a little taller… She thought sadly as they walked back out to Nico's car.
