When Nellie found out she was going home she was heartbroken. She wanted to win so badly. It was as if all the light in the world disappeared and she couldn't see. But in the distance she noticed a tiny light that got bigger and brighter as she got closer to it. That light was Blake and he was the light that saved Nellie from the darkness.
The night Nellie was to go home she and Blake met somewhere only they knew. It was there that Blake told Nellie he had feeling for her. It was there that they kissed. It was there that their kiss stayed. Blake never told Michael and neither did Nellie. That was the second time they had kissed. But Nellie realized that she did not feel the same for Blake.
Nellie knew Blake was a good guy. Any girl would be lucky to have him. But she did not love him, she had feeling for someone else. Nellie decided then and there to be honest with Blake.
"Blake, I'm sorry but I don't feel the same way for you as you do for me." She told him.
Blake was heartbroken. He had been waiting for a girl like Nellie to come into his life and now she was leaving. Blake didn't know what to say so he kissed Nellie one last time in hopes that this time she would feel something for him.
Nellie looked at Blake with her tear filled eyes,
"I'm so sorry Blake, but I love someone else." She said and then kissed Blake goodbye on the cheek.
She turned around to leave and reached for the door knob.
"Is it Michael?" It took every ounce of courage Blake had to ask this question, because he knew the answer could potentially kill him.
Nellie looked back at Blake, still holding on to the door knob, her eyes were like a waterfall, and her mouth was like a desert. She couldn't bring herself to answer Blake's question with words so she just nodded her answer, turned the door knob and left.
Blake stayed behind alone and heart broken. But the thing about Blake is that he was a good actor and he just walked out that door looking as if his heart had not been shattered into a million pieces.
Once Nellie left, Blake did not hear from her again. Until now. The reason that Blake didn't call Nellie (or vice versa) was because they weren't allowed. Once the eliminated contenders went home they were not allowed to contact the remaining contenders. This was so that they wouldn't discuss the show. They wanted as few people to know who the remaining contenders were so that it wouldn't leak and people could still be surprised. So Nellie was the last person Blake thought would call.
As soon as Blake heard Nellie's voice all the feeling he had for her came rushing back. Blake was surprised how quickly they came back after the countless days he spent trying to forget. He realized that they were never really gone, they were just overpowered by his new feeling for Michael. But is it possible to love two people at the same time? Blake asked himself.
Nellie:
"Hello? Blake are you there?
Blake snapped out of his flash back. He realized he was still naked.
Blake:
"Nellie why are you calling me so late?
Nellie:
"I didn't like how we ended things, can we talk?"
Blake looked around for his boxers he put them on and went to the bathroom.
Blake:
"It's kinda hard to talk right now. Nellie why are you crying is everything okay?"
Blake could hear Nellie wiping her nose. Nellie cleared her throat.
Nellie:
"I'm sorry if I hurt you Blake, I didn't mean to everything was happening so fast. I'm sorry.
Blake:
"Nellie don't worry about it. I came on too strong and I'm glad you were honest with me."
Blake was whispering so that Michael wouldn't hear him talking.
Nellie:
"I can barely hear you. Where are you?"
Blake:
"I'm in the bathroom, everyone's sleeping I gotta whisper cuz I can't be too loud."
Nellie:
"I'm sorry for calling so late. How's Michael? Is he still in the competition? If he is, tell him I miss him."
Blake felt a little jealous hearing Nellie ask about Michael. But was unsure if he was jealous of Michael or Nellie.
Blake:
"Michael's in the next room sometimes I wish he was you."
As soon as he said this he bit his tongue. He couldn't believe he said that out loud. But it was true. When he kissed Michael's forehead he imagined he was kissing Nellie.
Nellie:
"Does he know your talking to me? Will it start a fight?"
Blake:
"No I don't think he has a clue."
Nellie:
"Blake..."
Before she could finish her sentence Blake interrupted her and said.
Blake:
"It's really good to hear your voice Nellie."
The way Nellie said Blake's name made his heart race. He did love her. He wanted to be with her. But he also wanted to be with Michael. But the sound of Blake's name coming from the lips of an angel made him feel so weak.
Blake had worked so hard to try and forget about Nellie, but now this one phone call was bringing back all those feelings, feelings that Blake knew Nellie would never have for him. He knew he had to get off the phone.
Blake:
"I got to go, I have to get up early tomorrow. Good night Nellie."
Nellie:
"Okay good night Blake."
They both hung up. Blake decided he wanted to try to forget Nellie because his relationship with Nellie was more like a one way street. With Michael it was a one way street too but the only difference was that Michael was willing to drive against traffic to get to him. He also wanted to explore a little more with Michael. He knew what he felt for Michael was real and he wanted to keep feeling that for as long as possible, until death (or Ryan) tears them apart.
Blake heard a knock on the door. He opens it, it was Michael, he walked into the bathroom only wearing a towel wrapped around his waist.
"Are you ok" Michael asks Blake.
Blake closed the bathroom door, locked it and pulled Michael's towel off.
"I am now." Blake responded.
