| Chapter Eight Nikki: Abs and I left the store, actually laughing. That was defintely a first. Sure, we always laughed at each other, but never with each other. We had about six bags altogether. I was definitely going to have to have some overtime at the beauty shop, I thought to myself. Wait a second, I am a famous popstar, I have loads of money, I'll never have to worry about it again! A smile crept across my lips. Yess... Being Abs had its advantages. Other than being a famous popstar, I would give anything to have those eyebrows, mmmm. We walked toward our meeting place in the food court, but no one was there. Ritchie emerged soon after from a store, a simple bag in hand. "Where did everyone go?" I asked him as he approached us. "I dunno, I saw J chase after Whitney a while ago," he shrugged. "Chase after Whitney?" I asked, confused. "Yeah, she was hugging some bloke and he went after her and they ended up leaving," he explained. "Oh, god, I better go find her," I said, starting to walk. "Uhm, Abs? Don't you think this is something for Nikki to handle? She is a girl and all..." Ritchie stopped me. I looked to Abs in my body for answers. "You know what? I think he can handle it this time, I'll give him one," Abs offered. I mouthed "thanks" as I walked toward the big doors leading out of the mall. J: I was angrily walking back into the mall to find everyone else when I almost ran into Abs on the way out. "Abs, what are you doing?" I asked him a bit sharp. "Looking for you and Whitney," he replied, looking at me strangely. "Are you okay?" "No," I angrily answered. "She left, I guess went home. She caught a taxi. Man, I really screwed things up." "What did you do?" he wondered. "I saw him hugging some guy and said the wrong things and she stormed out," I explained. Abs sighed. "Nice going mate," was all he said as he walked back toward the food court. What just happened? Abs was always on my side. Something was very different about him. Abs: "So uh Nik..." "Yea" I replied. "Erm I was wondering look I know we're freinds and all and you don't wanna ruin it but er well I was wondering do you think erm...maybe we could erm..go..." "Damn J I need someones keys" Nikki in my body said storming over. Thankgod for the intteruption. "Rich can I borrow your car?" She asked angrily. "For?" He enquired. "Duh to find Whitney God you can be thick." "Gee Abs nice way to treat me" I nudged her. "Oh...yea I'm Abs right I'm sorry mate just kidding can I have em." Ritchie gave her a weird look "Yea sure mate but you ok to drive?" She nodded snatching them. "So erm will you go out with me?" Rich asked as Nikki went to leave in MY body. I gulped Nikki turned to see what I'd say. Oh wow he looked really hopefull how could I break his heart. "Uh Sure Rich." "WHAT! NIKKI!" Nikki scremaed at me I gave her a look as if to say "How could I help it" She gave me an evil look which turned into a sly grin. "Hmmm have a great time guys oh and Nikki maybe you should handle Whit she does need a girls advice afterall." I looked at her shocked. "But erm you know her better" I replied. "Nonsense Nik go ahead here" She pushed the keys towards me and left. Great just flippin great. Chapter Nine... |
