Chapter 12
~*~At the studios~*~
Whistling as he made
his way to the recording studios, Nick slurped his coke.
"Hey guys!" he yelled as he threw himself on the couch. Brian and AJ stood at the controls arguing about a song, Kevin sat drinking coffee, and talking into his cell phone, and Howie sat at the table eating a bag of chips. Turning to acknowledge Nicks prescence, Howie grinned.
"I love this place! Its like a little private apartment!" Nick smiled, not really listening to Howie at all. He was still smiling when Brian noticed he was there.
"Hey buddy! How was your date?" he asked walking over to the couch.
Nick said nothing, and still had the goofy smile on his face.
"Yo! Earth to Nicky! Anybody there?" Brian yelled, cupping his hands over Nicks ear.
Nick finally came out of his trance. Shrugging, he replied calmly, "It was okay."
Brian and the other guys chuckled. "Just OKAY?" Brian asked punching him in his arm.
Nick nodded, grinning.
"Did you get some?" AJ asked, walking over and lighting a cigarette.
Nick made a face. "Of course not AJ! I’m not into raping girls like you do!" he said, with a little annoyance in his voice.
AJ chuckled and blew a cloud of smoke at Nick. "You can’t rape the willing Nick. Thats not how it works!"
Brian laughed and slapped him high 5.
"So what d’ya do? Where d’ya go?"
Nick laughed finally letting his excitment show. "Oh guys it was great! We met at the beach, and then I told her who we were and she didn’t freak out or anything, and then she told me her whole life story and I told her mine..."
AJ cut him off. "That must have taken at LEAST 5 minutes!"
Nick stuck his tougne out at him and kept going. "She’s had a bad life, but once you get her warmed up, she’s so sweet! Kinda has your gross sense of humor AJ. She’s graduating tomorrow, and tonight I’m making her supper, and then we’re gonna meet up with you guys at a club. That way you can meet her."
Brian clapped him on the back. "Whoa man! I’m happy for you. But right now I want you to help with a little argument me and Bone were having. See, I think the songs chorus should be, ‘don’t want you back, cause your no good for me.....’ but Bone wants, ‘ don’t want you back, cause your no good in bed....’ which is more appropriate?"
Nick started to laugh and walked over to the control board with Brian.
AJ shrugged. "I thought it made sense." Shrugging, he ground out his cigarette and made his way over to the fridge.
