Chapter 3

Nick's view

Tiffany, Brian and I decided to watch a movie. To be specific Liar Liar. I really didn't want to watch it but I didn't want to argue. We were at the part where Fletcher was in the elevator talking to the big boobed woman. I looked over at Tiffany and found her watching the movie but Brian was making a pool of drool on the couch (Not literally). He was staring at Tiffany intently. I'm surprised Tiffany hadn't noticed. I couldn't take it anymore so I decided to say something.

"Brian," but he just kept on starring so I tried again.

"Brian," nothing.

"BRIAN!!" I screamed. That did the trick.

"W-What?" he said confused.

"Finally. Do you want to go get something for Tiffany. She might be thirsty or hungry," I suggested.

"Yeah. Hey Tiffany would you like something?"

"Sure! Can you get me a Sprite?"

"OK I'll be right back," he said.

Tiffany's View

I was sorta happy Nick said something because Brian wouldn't stop staring at me and I was getting just a bit uncomfortable.

"So what do you think of him. Is he what you expected?" Nick asked me.

"He seems nice," I answered.

"OK. Do you think he likes you?" he asked.

"I guess. I mean he's not mean to me so I guess he likes me as a friend but more than that I have no clue."

Just then Brian walked in holding a can of Sprite.

"Here you go Tiffany," he said sweetly.

"Thanks"

He reached for the remote and turned off the movie.

"Question Time," he said mischievously.

"OK I'm ready," I said excited.

Brian's View

She sure seems confident. Oh well if she gets them all right she has to go out with me and if she doesn't she still has to go out with me.

"OK. How old am I?" I asked starting the questions.

"24," she said right away.

"When was I born?"

"February 20, 1975"

"Do I have any brothers or sisters?"

"Yes. You have one brother and his name is Harold."

"What are my parents names?"

"Jackie and Harold"

"Which one of the guys is my cousin?"

"Kevin"

"What age was I when I almost died?"

"5"

"OK here's a hard one. Do I have a girlfriend?"

"No. Leighanne cheated on you and you broke up with her. So you are currently single and I'm sorry for bringing that up. It must have been hard for you," she said looking at her hands.

"It's OK. I'm over it now but what I would like to know is how in the hell did you know that?" I asked shocked that she knew. I only told the guys and I know they wouldn't tell the press.

"Nick told me," she said while pointing at Nick.

"Oh"

"Did I pass?" she asked.

"Yep"

"What's my reward?" she asked eager to know.

"Your reward is dinner and a movie with me," I said smiling.

Nick's View

NO! This can't be happening!

"OK when?" Tiffany asked really excitedly.

"How about tonight at 7?" Brian suggested.

"That's fine with me," she said.

"Well I have to go. I'll see you tonight?" Brian asked.

"Yep. See you then," she answered.

"Bye Tiffany, Bye Frack"

"Bye," Tiffany and I said at the same time.

Brian then left and I turned to Tiffany. She was staring at the door obviously in a different world.

"Tiffany? Are you OK?" I asked concerned.

She looked at me and said, "Am I OK? Am I OK? I'M GREAT!! I'M GOING ON A DATE WITH BRIAN LITTRELL!! OH MY GOSH! MY DREAMS ARE FINALLY COMING TRUE! WHAT AM I GOING TO WEAR! OK I'm acting like a teenybopper. I'm stopping!"

"It looks like Brian likes you," I said sadly.

"Yeah isn't that great! Nicky you have to help me pick out something to wear. You know what he likes," she said while jumping out of her sit, grabbing my hand, and dragging me to her room.

"You seem excited," I said.

"Duh!" she said. She must have seen the sad look on my face because the next thing I heard from her was,"Nicky are you OK? You seem kind of down today," she asked concerned.

"I'm fine Tiffy. Stop worrying. Don't you need an outfit?" I said trying to change the subject.

"Oh Yeah. What does he like?" she asked.

"Well try something nice, pretty, and a little showy but nothing slutty. He hates people who show to much of their body," I told her.

"Ok, how about this?" she said while holding up a pair of khakis shorts and a blue sweater.

"Well it's nice but knowing him he'll take you to a nice restaurant. Do you have any dresses?"

"Yeah lots. How about this one?" she said while holding up spaghetti strap blue dress with glitter all over it.

"You know what? I have a present for you. Just stay here for a second. I'll be right back," I said while getting up and heading to my room.

"OK"

Tiffany's View

I was wondering why he got me a present. It wasn't my birthday that's for sure. Nick walked in the room just then carrying a large box. It was wrapped in red wrapping paper with a huge white bow on top. He walked over and gave it to me. I looked at the box while Nick sat next to me on my bed. I looked at him confused.

"C'mon! Open it!" he said.

I looked back down at the box and started to unwrap it. When I took the top off the box I found a piece of red cloth. I took it out to find a red spaghetti strap dress. It was tight at the top but then where the bottom of your bra would be it went free. I looked in awe at the dress. It was simply beautiful. I looked down to find something else. It was a pair of red clogs that went with the dress. I looked up to see Nick smiling widely at me.

"Before you say anything I have one more thing for you," he said while pulling a black box out of his pocket.

He gave it to me and waited while I started to open it. Inside was a gold locket. On the front there were small diamonds formed in a shape of a heart and inside the heart was my birthstone and his. I then opened it to find a picture of the two of us at my prom. My boyfriend at the time was out of town and I didn't have anyone to go with so Nick went with me. It was so sweet of him.

I looked at the picture and thought about how good we looked together. Wait what am I saying?! I like Brian and not Nick! Or do I? I just pushed that thought away.

"Look on the back," he said breaking me out of my thoughts.

I did as he said and found an inscription. It said, "Tiffy and Nicky Friends 4 Ever Love, Nicky."

I looked up at him with tears in my eyes. I couldn't contain myself. I flew my arms around him and hugged him tightly.

Nick's View

"Thank You," she whispered in my ear.

"Anything for my best buddy," I told her.

It felt so good holding her in my arms. I wanted to stay like this forever but she pulled away.

"Nicky why did you give me these things?" she asked curious.

"Well I wanted to give you something nice for being such a great friend," I partially lied. Don't get me wrong she's a great friend but I was going to give her the presents when asking her out. I figured that wouldn't happen so I decided to give her the presents now.

"That's so sweet Nick! Thank you so much!" she said happily.

"I'm glad you like them. Anyway I figured you could wear the dress for your date with Brian." I said trying to sound happy.

"That's a great idea. Well let me get ready and I'll be down when Brian comes," she said.

"OK, I'll tell you when he comes," I said while getting up and leaving the room.

"Hey Nicky?" Tiffany said to me before I closed the door.

I opened the door and replied, "What?"

"Do you think Brian and I would make a good couple if he asked me to be his girlfriend?"

"Yeah I think you would make the perfect couple," I said trying to sound convincing.

"Thanks Nick"

"No problem. Now get ready I want to see you in that dress."

"Ok Nicky!" she said to me while laughing lightly.

I then closed the door. I walked down the stairs trying to figure out ways to get Tiffany to be my girlfriend.
