Chapter 12
When Nick hung up the phone, it was decided that Nicole was going
to fly up to Germany - today. She was instructed to hang up and
get packed. Nick would take care of the ticket, she just needed
her to get her butt down to the airport. She did as was told and
Amanda went with her.
"Amanda, you don't have to,I mean,the ticket costs a fortune!!" Nicole said closing her suitcase.
"Don't worry!! I want to. LeighAnne's already been there for a week, I'll be alone!" Amanda smiled.
****AJ's hotel****
Nick hung up the phone and buried his head in his hands. Everyone else walked over to the bed and sat down, with Brian next to Nick.
"Hey man, it'll be okay." Brian patted Nick on the back and in return Nick hugged Brian and cried onto his shoulder.
"Oh god Brian,what have I done? I'm not ready to be a father!" Nick cried for another 10 minutes while evryone sat there.
When he stopped he had puffy eyes and a tear-streaked face.
"Nick," Brian said, "go and sleep for an hour, or just think. No buts. Figure it out. Whatever you do I'll back you up 100 percent. Go, sleep."
Brian pulled Nick up and walked over to Nick's room with him, then came back to AJ's.
"Guys this is serious" Kevin said as Brian sat back down.
"Well, let Nick figure it out." Howie said.
For the next hour they talked about Nick's possibilities.
****1 hour later****
Exactly 1 hour later Nick walked into AJ's room with a proud look on his face.
"Where's my wallet?" He said walking into the kitchen.
Everyone just stared at him. Nick emerged from the kitchen a minute later with his wallet.
"Well, what's the verdict?" Brian asked.
"I have to buy a ring. "He said. Brian stood up.
"What for?"He asked, almost but not quite getting the picture.
"I can't propose without a ring." Nick said opening the door.
"Wait Nick!!"
Nick looked up, ready to yell at him if he said no.
"Remember she doesn't like anything to fancy." Brian and Nick smiled and he shut the door.
