Chapter Two
‘Yeah Mandy I would tell you but-.’ Nikki heard a knock at the door.

‘Oh god he’s back.’ Nikki cried. Mandy walked over to the door and opened it.

‘Hey JC, what’s up?’ Mandy asked letting him in.

‘Hey umm.. Nikki promised me a dance, cause she didn’t wanna go out so..’ JC said walking .

‘Oh say-no-more! I have to go and check on Matt anyway, so bye Nikki! And you take good care of her JC, she’s not feeling well.’ Mandy whispered

‘Ok I got it.’ JC said closing the door. Nikki came out of the bathroom and walked right into JC’s arms.

‘Oh hey you surprised me.’ She answered walking away from him and to the bed.

‘No-no-no, you promised me a dance, and baby I intend to get one.’ He said walking over to the radio.

‘JC, really I just wanna go to bed. I really don’t feel good, I think I have a bug and dancing won’t make me feel better.’ JC turned on the radio to a nice slow jazz song, and he walked over pulling Nikki out of  bed and into his arms.

‘JC, I really don’t think we should dance. I’m going to get sick.’ Quickly she ran to the bathroom and got sick. JC sat the chair next to her bed waiting for her to come out.

‘Mandy----- hey------yeah I’m fine----Nikki just got sick that’s all --- maybe you should come up here.’ JC hung up the phone as Nikki came out.

‘Are you ok? Mandy’s on her way up here.’ JC helped her to the bed. Mandy knocked on the door, then she opened it, forgetting all about Matt who was behind her. Mandy slammed the door shut right in his face and it hit his nose. Matt cried out in pain and opened the door.

‘Manny that hurt!’ Matt whined closing the door.

‘What did honey?’ Mandy asked as she sat close to Nikki.

‘WHEN YOU HIT ME IN THE FACE WITH THE DAMN DOOR!’ Mandy walked over to him.

‘Shut-up Nikki doesn’t feel well, she just got sick, she doesn’t need you yelling.’ Mandy whispered.

‘Oh now we’re “Doctor Mandy” to the rescue again. God she has JC right here to take good care of her, right JC?’ JC nodded. ‘ JC will take good care of her and if he needs anything he can call us. Now Mandy honey come with me to bed and get some sleep.’ Matt answered

‘Matt if you wanna sleep then go to sleep but I’m not leaving.’ Mandy whispered and pushed him out the door and closed it.

‘FINE THEN. I’m leaving.’ Matt whined in defeat and walked away.

‘OK what happened?’ Mandy asked JC.

‘Well we were dancin’ and she said she was going to get and sick and did. It’s not like she’s dying Mandy.’ JC said ‘ You go to bed with Matt, and let me worry about her. Ok?’ JC pushed Mandy out and went back over to Nikki.

‘It seems everyone is worried about you… even through you only tossed your cookies-.’

‘JC, don’t say anything about food.’ Nikki said, She couldn’t tell JC how she felt even through she tried she just couldn’t.

‘Just go home and to bed, JC. I can take care of myself. You said so yourself; I’m not dying.’

‘I just feel it’s my fault, and that I should fix it.’ JC told her as he got himself a drink of water.’

‘You have no idea how much this is your fault.’  She thought.

‘Yeah I guess if you had listened to me this wouldn’t have happened.’ She told him.

The Next Day

Nikki woke up and she was feeling much better. JC was gone so it made her day get off to a good start.

‘Hey , I got you something to eat.’ JC said as he came out of the bathroom. He pointed to the cart with food on it.

‘Thank you, JC, that was nice of you.’ Nikki said walking to the bathroom, when she tripped and JC caught her. Their faces were just inches apart, and they were stareing deeply into each others eyes.

‘Thank you.’ Nikki said, moving away from JC and to the bathroom.

‘Oh God, Oh God, what if he finds out that I still have feelings for him?’ Nikki said to her self.

‘Why didn’t I kiss her I had the chance?’ JC asked himself. Nikki came out of the bathroom, when the phone rang.
