Chapter 5
June 21st-
It had been a month since I moved in with AJ. Nick and I had become inseprable. Also I got a job as a part time chef in a small restaurant.
I was sitting in the family room watching t.v. when all of a sudden I heard Nick and AJ running down the hall laughing hysteriacally.
"Hahahaha! We're gonna get 'em! Hehe, take these."AJ was laughing his ass off when I walked into the bathroom to see what was going on. Suddenly I knew what they were doing. In the sink there were almost 100 empty water balloons, while Nick and AJ were tyring to fill them all up.
"What the hell are you 2 up to today?" I asked trying not to laugh at the fact a water balloon just broke on AJ. \
"Water war with the others. They're over at Howie's waiting. You wanna join?" Nick said almost outta breath.
"I'll get my gun." And with that I went into my room and went straight for the back of my closet. When I got there I pulled out a monterous water gun I had gotten for my 11th birthday.
20 minutes later we were piling into AJ's car, AJ in the front and Nick and I in the back holding the stuff. We put the balloons in bags and the water gun had a strap so that was over my shoulder. In addition to that we had squirt guns in our pockets,extra water balloons, and someone would keep next to the hose at all times. That was AJ.
We pulled into the drive way of Howie's and got our stuff in order. When we snuck over to the side of the house, We notced Kevin, Howie and Brian in the back standing around a heap of water balloons, all with water guns! AJ snuck behind a bush by the hose, Nick kept to the side of the house, and I snuck over to another bush.
To start the war, I was supposed to spray someone. I chose Howie, since he was farthest away and they wouldn't notice me, and I shot a small amount. It hit his head.
"What the hell?!?!Get 'em!" Howie shouted. Just then Nick, AJ and I jumped up and it all started. We played for an hour and then decided to go swimming in our clothes. Well, actually, AJ pushed Nick in the pool and we all jumped in.
****Later that night ****
RRRRIIIINNNNGGGG!!!!
"I'll get it!" I shouted and ran over to the phone. I picked it up.
"Hello?"I asked in a funny voice as usual.
"Hey Nicole. Wanna do something tonite?" The voice of Nick said through the phone.
"I suppose I could. Like what?" I asked.
"Wanna go out to a movie or something?"Nick asked.
"How about we go to your house and watch a movie. There's nothing new in the theatres."
"Why not? Meet me here in 30 minutes. Ciao" Nick said and hung up the phone.
"AJ! I'm goin to Nick's!!"
30 Minutes later I pulled into Nick's drive way and ran over. When I got inside we walked over to Nick's room (Don't wory it's not like what you think!!) and sat down on the bed.
"What movie are we gonna watch?" I asked hoping he'd pull out Austin Powers for a laugh.
"Well actually I wanted to give something to you first. Over the last month you've been here we've been like twins. We can read each others minds! I just wanted to give you something to prove you're my best friend."
And with that he pulled out a box and handed it to me. Inside there was a sterling silver ring with the words 'friends forever' on the inside.
"Oh my god Nick I love it! Thank you so much! I don't have anything for you though. OH! Here." And I reached over and gave him a kiss on the cheek.
He blushed, I laughed and we watched
Austin powers. I fell asleep at his house that night with his arm
around his best friend, me.
