Battle of Love!
chapter five: somebody that i used to kno
The next day things were going pretty smooth. Nick was hanging with Sonic and avoiding Zach! After lunch they went to train. Nick got too comfortable, he thoutht that he was safe from another ex for the day, but he cuoldnt have been more wrong...
Nick and Sonix wur sparring and then they took a break. Nick was super sweaty and took off his shirt. He then went and played some music on the radio. His musical changes had evolved a lot since he met sonic the day before. Now he wanted to listen to bands like Blackveil Brides, AFI, Brokencyde, Never Shout Never and Panic! at the Disco! He also straightened one part of his curly hair so he had side bangs! But he longed for a Hawthorne Heights tee from hot topic :(
Anyway Nick put on "Check Yes Juliet" by We The Kings.
"This is one of my favourite songs!" Sonic exclaimed. It was like him n Nick had known each other thir whole lives. Sonic knew Nick was gorge before but he wasn't sure about hsi feelings. Now they were becoming clear.
His feelings were love.
But Sonic could also see that Nick had been hurt a lot... He carried a heavy heart from all the times it had been broken. Sonic decided it was best to take it slow with Nick for a day or so!
The guys sat on a bench at the side of the gym. They drank kool aid and listened to the awesome tunes. After Check Yes Juliet, Welcome to the Black Parade by MCR came on! They were having an epic time, but then, a voice entered the room... And Nick was slapped by reality!
"No... No not him!" Nick splattered! "Not him..." he instantly started crying and sonic put his hand on his shoulder.
"You have to face him, Nick" sonic sed. Nick refused.
"NIck..." the voice came. A short little man with tan skin and brown hair but was a total hunk walked up to them. Nick's face was hidden. Once the guy stood before them, Nick dared to lift his eyes.
"Moises," Nick whimpered. "What are you doing here?"
"Idk" Moises Arias said! (the guy in the cover for this fic lol :)
Nick couldn't handle it! Moises was his most recent ex and they didn't end well. Moises was the love of Nick's life but they seperated bcuz it wasnt working out but they still had feelings for each other and still dated a bit. Nick knew this one would be the hardest of them all!
Sonic was hurt. He wished that all these random dudes would go away so he could have a proper day with Nick! But Nick ran away from Sonic and Moises. He ran faster than he ever had.
Nick crashed into his bedroom, but this time, he went straight for the stereo. He grabbed the CDs and threw them all over the bed. He looked for the most gritty, gut wrenching, emotional band to help ease his sorrows. He couldn't even think about Moises. He just needed to hear some hardcore music.
He put on Silverstein and laid on the bed, crying hystericly.
"Your face arrives again, all hope I had becomes surreal.
But under your covers more torture than pleasure
And just past your lips there's more anger than laughter
Not now or forever will I ever change you
I know that to go on, I'll break you, my habit!
You taught my heart, a sense I never knew I had.
I can forget, the times that I was
Lost and depressed from the awful truth
How do you do it?
You're my heroine!"
The music was helping Nick. He felt like tere was someone out there who really understood him. How was he supposed to move on with Sonic when all his exes were showing up!? They were all a painful reminder of his past heartbreak and trauma!
Nick was now angry. He got up and opened the closet. All he had were the gucci clothes he came with, but someone had stocked the closet while he was out... He grinned as the last tear fell down his cheek. In the closet were many pairs of ripped skinny jeans and band tees. Sonic had been there! Nick put on a tight fitted Pierce the Veil shirt, a pair of dark ripped skin tight jeans and a neon green checkered belt. He put a pair of pink beats by dre around his neck for style. He then threw on a bright blue hoodie from D-tox to complete the ensumble! Oh, but he couldn't forget the shoes. He put on black and white checkered vans.
Nick went over to the mirror and took in his appearance. There was only one thing left to change. He had to straighten all of his hair.
When the transformation was complete, Nick realized there was still something missing. He put a small dash of black guyliner under his eyelids. Looking in the mirror, he saw that he had never felt more like himself. He was still distraight about Moises, but he knew that there was hope. He went outside to find Sonic.
He was going to confess his love.
I think this is probably the most emotional chapture ive come ou with yet! you like?
NEXT TIME: Nick is ready to take a leap of faith and move on with Sonic... But what will stand in their way this time!?
