Chapter 8

~*Nick and Angel*~

Nick and Angel were in each other's arms, when A.J. walked over. "God Nick, you act fast!! What's going on?!" he asked. "I will tell ya later. A.J., this is Angel Mckennie." he said looking at Angel with a twinkle in his eyes. "Hi" she said smiling. "Hello, it's nice to meet you Angel. Nick, the bus is fixing to go back to the hotel, it's time to go." he said. Nick and Angel looked at each other, and a tear rolled down her cheeks. "I will be there in a few J, just let me be with her a few more minutes." he said smiling at A.J. "Ok" he said and ran to get on the bus. He turned to Angel, and saw that she was crying. "Oh Baby...what's wrong?" he asked wiping the tear with his thumb. "It's just that, will I ever see you again?!" she said. He wrapped his arms around her. "Baby, now that I've found you, I will never let you go! Never!! We are staying here for a few more days. Give me your address, and telephone number, so I can call you tomorrow." he said hugging her tighter. "Ok, she took a pen and wrote down her number and address, and gave him directions to her place. "Please call me when you get back to the hotel, or wherever you are going!" she said panicky. "Ok, I will baby, I promise!" he said pulling her to him and passionately kissing her. Five minutes later all the boys were on the bus, with Angel, Summer, and Sarah waving good night from the street. "Come on girl, let's go home." Summer said pulling Angel, and Sarah away.

~* Up in Heaven*~

"No! This can't be happening!!" JoJo said looking down at Angel from heaven. "What is it? They found each other, you have done what you were sent to do." a voice called. "No, please, I have to see her happy. She has been through so much. I love her too much to see her like this!! They were supposed to stay together, not part!" he shouted. "You know how his schedule is JoJo, this relationship has got to bloom like a flower." the voice boomed. "Please, they have to be together, near each other!! It's going to kill her if she isn't near him all the time!! Please let me make sure, that happens?!" JoJo shouted. "You're job is done with her, all you can do is watch over them, and guide her to do the right thing with him!" the voice boomed. "Please, I want her to be happy. The only way she is going to be is with Nick! Please let me have her dreams again, both of them sir, please?!!" he begged getting down on his knees. "Well, alright, but just this once! If you don't get the message across, then that's it!! They will just have to do it on their own, and you will stay here and watch over them. Deal?!" the voice asked. "Oh thank you sir. It's a deal!!" JoJo said smiling. Now, how will I get them to be together always? he thought to himself. He will just have to think, think, and think somemore. He sat back and watched her enter her apartment.

~*At the apartment*~

Angel, Summer, and Sarah walked into the apartment. "Man, I had the best night of my life!" Sarah said dreamly. "Yea, I know. Howie is so funny!!" Summer said laughing a little. Angel kept quiet. "Angel are you alright?" Summer asked. She didn't say anything, she just walked to her room. Summer knew what it was. It's Nick, she misses him! Well, I will just have to fix that! she thought.

~*Angel's bedroom*~

Angel walked into her bedroom, and sat down on the bed. She couldn't get Nick out of her mind. I finally found him, and I lose him in the same night. She fell back on the bed, and started to cry. Why does this always have to happen to me?!!!! First I lose my friend, and now I lose the love of my life!!!! she thought. Tears streaming down her face. She rolled over and turned on the radio. She didn't even bother to change her clothes, she pulled the covers over her and tried to concentrate on sleep. Which didn't come. The telephone rang, and she didn't even bother to answer it. Why should I? I will probably never see him again! The phone stopped ringing. Summer must have gotten it. she thought. She closed her eyes, and imediatly saw Nick's face. Her eyes shot open, and she sat up in the bed. She took the fabric of her white dress, and smelled his colonge on it. Geez, he smells good! she thought. She laid back down on the bed and closed her eyes again. Nick's face again. Damn, I'm never going to get no sleep, thinking about him! she thought. From This Moment by: Shania Twain was playing on the radio. It's a great song, it reminds me of Nick! she thought drifting off into a deep sleep.

~*Downstairs*~

Summer and Sarah were in the kitchen talking about tonight's events when the phone rang. "Hold on, I'll get that." she said answering the phone. "Hello......yes, this is she. Hey Howie, what's up? Oh nothing, just me and Sarah in the kitchen talking about tonight. Oh yes, I had a great time tonight! Yes, I'm going to be up for a while why? Ok, come on over then, you still have the address? Great, you guys are staying at the Crown Plaza right? Ok, I'm on Riverside Drive, and you will see a sign that says, Riverside Drive Apartments, go up the elevator, and you will walk out of them, and go five doors to the right, we are in apt#5. Ok, are you going to be by yourself? Oh, you are bringing Brian, and Nick? Great! See you in about thirty minutes then? Ok, bye!" she said hanging up. "Oh My God! Did you just say that Brian, Howie, and Nick are coming over?!!" Sarah asked. "Yup, and this is perfect too, for us, and especially Angel. I think she needs to be with Nick, right now. I'm just dreading the day when he has to leave her to go on the road!" Summer said looking sad. "Oh don't do that, you never know, he might get it arranged where she gets to tour with him!" Sarah said sounding excited. "Yep, but let's not get her hope's up! Hey speaking of, where is Angel?" she asked. "She is upstairs in her room. Probably thinking of Nick!" Summer said laughing. "Well, let's not tell her she is coming, but let's go up and talk to her!" Sarah said. "Ok." Both girls walked up to Angel's bedroom, and knocked on the door. No answer. They knocked again. Still no answer. The turned the door knob, and opened the door. There on the bed, she was asleep still in her white dress that she wore to the concert. She absolutly looked like an Angel! "Well, I guess we better go back downstairs, and wait for the boys to get here. Nick is going to be disappointed when he comes, because she is asleep!" Summer said sadly because her plan to surprise Angel wasn't going to work. "Aww come on, maybe she will wake up before he gets here." Sarah said. "I hope so, and I hope she doesn't have one of her nightmares either." Summer said turning on the Tv. The girls waited for the boys, while watching tv.

~*Meanwhile on Riverside Drive*~

"Ok, we are on the street they live on, she said go to Riverside Drive Apartments, and go up to the second floor to apt 5." Howie said to Brian and Nick. "I can't wait to see my baby!" he said smiling. "Man, have you even asked her to be your girl yet?" Howie asked. "Not yet, but I will tonight. I've waited so long to find her, and I don't want to ruin it between us!" Nick said. "Yea, but what is going to happen to you two when we have to go back on the road at the end of the week?" Brian asked. "I don't know, but I'm dreading it too." he said. "Oh well, I can't wait to see Sarah! Man, she is so beautiful and funny, she is special too!" Brian said. "No way, not like my Summer!" Howie said. "Hey now, don't forget my Angel, and she is an angel. She was sent to me, I believe!" Nick said smiling dreamily. "Ok, we are here!" Howie said pulling into the parking lot. "Alright, I can't wait to see her again!" Nick said impaitently. "Nick, calm down!" Brian said grabbing his arm to keep him from jumping out of the car. Howie parked the car, and and the boys got out, and walked to the elevators. They were about to see their girls.

~*Back in the Apartment*~

"Man that guy Marilyn Manson is so nasty looking!" Summer said looking at the Tv. "Yea, I can't believe what he did to himself, and he was a cute geek on the Wonder Years." Sarah said. "Well, yes but...." the door bell rang. "Hold on just a sec!!" she shouted to the door. Sarah stood up, and Summer ran over to the door. "Hey guys, come on in!!" Summer said answering the door. "Hey Summer!" Howie said giving her a kiss on the cheek. She blushed. He smiled. "Yea, long time no see! hehe!" Brian said walking over to Sarah. "Hey Brian!" Sarah said smiling at him. "Hey, what are you two doing?" he asked. "Oh nothing, just talking about this guy on Tv. He is so discusting." she said shivering from the thought. "Yes, he is." he said looking at the Tv. "Where is Angel?!" Nick said looking around. "Oh, she is upstairs, she fell asleep. You can go see if she will wake up if you want too." Summer said. "Oh, no that's alright, I'll just stay down here, and maybe she will come down." he said looking sad. "Ok, so you guys want something to drink?" she asked. "Sure, I will have a coke!" Howie said. "Same here!" Nick and Brian said. Summer only nodded, and walked into the kitchen to get the drinks. "Oh Nick, I'm so sorry. She was so upset when we got here and she went straight to her bedroom! I think she misses you." Sarah said. "That's ok, I miss her too. I wished she would wake up!" Nick said. "Well, the night is still young. But Summer says that Angel has nightmares, and she has them often, but she hopes that she does'nt have them anymore." she said. "I hope not either, or sleep walk." he said. "Angel has been through alot here lately, with the passing of JoJo and all. Boy, when he died, it was like something just left her heart in a million pieces!" Summer said coming out of the kitchen. "Well, what exactly happened to him?" Howie asked. "Well, from what the high way patrol said. JoJo and his friend were on this road in Mason Tn, and they were trying to pass some old lady. Then they hit gravel and the truck flipped about four times. Then his a ditch upside down." Summer said looking down. "Yea, Angel told me in my dreams, she said his last words in the hospital was that he loved her with all his heart." Nick said. "Really Nick? You dreamed about her?" Howie asked. "Yes, I have been for two months now. That's why, I was so happy to finally found her. I've been looking for her that long, maybe all my life." he said. "Wow, that is so cool!" Howie said smiling. "Yes, but Angel has been dreaming about him too! I told her she was crazy, until I heard about Nick's dreams too." Summer said. "Yea, and if he hadn't have found her, I would have gone crazy hearing about it!" Brian said laughing. "Hey!" Nick said. They all laughed at him for that.

~*Angel's Bedroom*~

Angel saw the truck flipping over and landing into the ditch. "NO!!! OH GOD!!!" she screamed. She ran over to the truck and looked inside. She grabbed the passenger door and pulled it open, and climbed inside. "OH GOD, JOJO PLEASE WAKE UP!!!" she screamed. JoJo opened his eyes. "I love you Angel, I always will. Don't ever forget me." he whispered. "OH GOD JOJO NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, DON'T LEAVE ME, PLEASE?!!!!!!" she screamed. He closed his eyes and no sound came to his lips. "WAKE UP, JOJO!!! IT'S GOING TO BE ALRIGHT, PLEASE WAKE UP!!!! WAKE UP PLEEEEEEEAAAAAASSSSSSEEEEE?!!!!!" she screamed. Angle sat straight up in her bed and let out the loudest scream she could. "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!" she howled. She got up and opened her door, and headed for the stairs.

~*Meanwhile Downstairs*~

"Oh god, do you believe what butthead just did?!" Sarah said laughing. "Yup, that was funny!!" Howie said. Everyone was laughing at Beavis and Butthead on Tv. "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!" someone screamed upstairs. "What?.........Oh no, it's Angel!!!!" Summer said getting up. Nick was right behind her. They were just at the head of the stairs when Angel came running, falling, and tripping down the stairs crying and screaming. "SUMMER!!!! OH MY GOD, HE IS GONE!!!!" Angel screamed, cried running down the stairs. Angel didn't even see the company there. Just as she got to Summer and Nick, she fell to her bum, and started wailing. "OH GOD, OH GOD, OH GOD!!! I CAN'T DO THIS ANYMORE JOJO!!! I WANT TO START HAVING MY GOOD DREAMS BACK!!! I CAN'T STAND THESE NIGHTMARES!!!" she screamed. Nick and Summer came over and sat down beside her. She was so blinded by her tears, that she still didn' t see Nick sitting there. And he understood. Summer grabbed her and held her. "Shhhhh, sissy!! He is in a better place. Besides, someone is here to see you!! Shhhh.......stop it Angel!! Stop it now!!! It was his time to go. Look who is here to see you?!" Summer said stroking her sister's hair. Angel looked over to see her beloved. "Nick? Oh My God, please make it stop! Please make the pain go away, I can't handle it anymore!!" she wailed throwing her arms around him. He stood up and pick her up in his arms and carried her over to the couch. "Shhhhhh.......baby, I'm here. I'll stay with you tonight. Shhhhhh." he said carressing her. She looked up and could'nt believe what came out of her mouth. (Meaning she wasn't ready to tell him how she felt) "I love you Nick! I fell in love with you in my dreams! I wanna be with you always!" she said crying. Nick felt his heart jump three miles high. "Oh baby, I love you so much!! Can I keep you? (the line from Casper), Will you be my baby forever?" he asked looking at her. "Yes! Oh yes, Nick I will forever!" she said wrapping her arms around him. Then he swept her up in the most passionate kiss that they had ever shared. The other's left the room, to let them be alone.
