Chapter 13

I woke up this morning in Nick's arms, it took me a while to realize why but when I finally did I smiled. Being in his arms felt so right. Why? That's a question not even I could answer at this point in time, but it did. I was about to close my eyes again when I looked at the clock. It read 9:30am.

"CRAP!" I screamed, waking poor Nick up.

"Whay?? Wha?? Christy is it your neck??" He asked finally realizing where he was and why he was there.

"No, it's AJ!!"

"WHAT HAPPENED???" He screamed.

"No, it's nothing like that, his plane, it comes in today!!!"

"Calm down, what time does his plane come in??"

"In about 30 minutes. Nick, I can't drive with my neck in it's condition, I mean, I'm better than yesterday but I'm afraid if I try to drive, well, lets just say I'm afraid to try to drive." I said.

"Look, I'll take you, hurry up and get dressed and then we'll go, you can get dressed right??" He asked.

"Yeah, I think so" I told him

"Okay, I'll meet you in….wait, whose car??"

"Mine, I have one here, I was just to afraid to take it and use it…memories you know?? I think I'm okay with using it now, the keys are on the key ring in the kitchen, the ones with the key ring that says Teeny." I explained

"Teeny?" he asked

"LATER!" I stated and we both went to change.

At the airport-

"Okay, so I'll go to the ticket counter and see if the plane is late or early, you go to the gate and see if they are already there okay?" Nick asked me.

"Yeah, I got it, then we'll meet at the gate." I finished

"Okay!" Then we separated.

I just don't get it anymore, Nick and I, we seem like a team, one of us isn't the same without the other. I don't feel like I'm a whole person without Nick, I don't know if he feels the same but, I don't know, maybe I'm just acting weird. I better watch for the plane.

Just then Nick came over to me. "Christy??" he asked

"Yeah?"

"The plane is on time, it should be here any second now. I'm going to go get you and I some breakfast and then call Brian and Kev to make sure they know we're all right and that I didn't kidnap you or something!! Any preferences for breakfast?" He asked, I opened my mouth to reply when he stopped me.

"A glazed doughnut." He said.

"How'd you do that?" I asked.

"I really don't know, it just popped into my head!!" He laughed. "Oh, and you were talking in your sleep last night too. You said, and I quote, 'Mmmmm I love glazed doughnuts!!' it was pretty funny but I figured you might want one now." He said still laughing only harder now than before. I shook my head as he walked off. Then I turned my attention back to a plane that had just arrived.
