Hey hey hey!
So you guys finally got the moment you've been waiting for!
Here's another!
______________________________________________________________________________
Abby's POV
The next morning Joe took everyone to eat at this breakfast place and I couldn't even go! How absolutly lame?
So I snuck over to the guys room to find Nick.
When I knocked on the door he didn't answer so I went back to my room and tried to find the key but they were all mixed up and I got frustrated. So I just sat there. I was pacing the living room when a light bulb went off on in my head. You know those doors in the hotel that leads to the other rooms for what reason I don't know. Well yeah... Those. I opened it and went through it. When I walked in the room the tv was on but I didn't see anyone. So I went in the room of the hotel. And there he was... Sleeping beauty. I shook my head and walked over to his bed.
I started biting my lip because I didn't know what to do. I didn't want to wake him up but I didn't want to be bored either. I sighed and ran my hands through my hair. I started thinking about last night. Then I started thinking about how I was a cheater. Then I started thinking about that kiss and my head started hurting.
I looked at him and thought how I would give anything to kiss him again. I walked over to him and leaned in. I don't care if he is sleep. The tip of my nose touched his and his eyes flarred open. He screamed (in a manly way) then fell of the bed and his head on the dresser. SO not what I was aiming for.
I bent down and he put his hand on his forehead.
"Ah god! Abby what are you doing here?" I freaked out I was so nervous and started talking extra fast.
"I am so sorry Nick! I was just bored and then I tried to find the key to your room but I couldn't so I got really irritated and then I came through the door and then you were sleep and then I thought about last night and then I-" He put his hand over my mouth and said.
"Abby! Its okay breathe." I glared at him and then pushed his hand away. Then we just sat there. I was still bored but it was better be with bored with him then without him. After a while he sat up and said.
"Go back to your room." I sprang up shocked and said.
"What?"
"I said-"
"Yeah yeah. I know what you said but... Why?"
"Because I am busting us out of here." I laughed and answered.
"Nick were not in jail!"
"I know that but were leaving this room." I shook my head no. Why do they always try and make me bad?
"Why not? Don't you wanna get out of here?"
"Well. Yeah but what if they come back and were not here?" He shook head and said.
"Abby Abby Abby. Always worried about the consequences of your actions. Haven't you ever just lived in the moments."
"Well once I have and I think we both know what happened." He looked at me in disbelief.
"You mean you've never done anything like that before?" I shook my head and he said.
"Go get dressed I'll be in your room in five minutes. I sighed and obeyed seeing as I wasn't gonna win this fight.

When I got to my room and put on a blue sleveless dress with white polka dots, a brown belt went right underneath my cleavage. I put a cream vest shapped cardigan over it. As soon as I put my shoes on Nick walked in the room.
"You ready?"
"Yeah let's go." I started to grab my phone and he stopped me.
"Leave it."
"But what if-" I stopped talking when he gave me a look that said 'really?' I smiled and we left.
~*~
"Mmmm! This is good! I always thought they were over exagerating when they said New York had the best hot dogs but... Man." He nodded and bit into his.
We were at the same park from last night and I know now that it was the central park. We were sitting on a water eating our extra awesome food and drinking soda.
"See. This isn't so bad is it? Even though it took me two hours to stop you from worrying about getting caught." I smiled shyly and threw my stuff in the trash.
"No I have to admit. But you do know were gonna die when we get back right?" He nodded and I laughed.
We started walking back to the hotel. He promised me that we'd go back now on behalf of walking to make it seem like we were still gone. He is such a trouble maker. And he is turning me out. We were at a street corner when I saw a sign that said 'Carlos Bakery' I gasped and Nick looked a little alarmed.
"What's wrong?" I pointed and started laughing.
"Look! The tv show!" He shook his head and said.
"You are something else." I shrugged and fixed my eyes on something ugly.
"Hey Nick look. Our old friend the cabby." He laughed and I looked at him then his taxi which was sitting by the way I guess he was picking something up. Then a plan was hatched in my mind. Living in the moment huh? Okay let's try.
~*~
I tapped my finger on the jail bar. While gawking at that fat cabby and that stupid police officer. He waited a whole thirty minutes until finally letting me call my mom!
Nick was sitting on the bench behind me in our new little holding cell.
"Abby would you please come sit down your making me nausous." I rolled my eyes and turned around.
"This is all your fault." He scoffed and said.
"And how is that? It was your dumb ass idea."
"So dumb that you went along with every single moment! And your the one who said. And I qoute 'When have you ever lived in the moment' that's what drilled the idea in my head anyways."
"Yeah but your the one who suggested to put his car in reverse and let it roll."
"We were having fun! And besides he des-" I stopped yelling when I heard someone clear their throat. I looked over to the bars and saw an angry mother an amused bestfriend and an amused brother. And all I could say was.
"Mom! How was the resteraunt?" She folded her arms and answered.
"It was pretty great until I got back to TWO empty hotel rooms AND recieved a call from a police station. Care to explain." I sighed and said.
"Mom... I have been really aweful these days and I will accept without argeeing whatever you throw at me. But before you decide anything you should know... Nick did everything! He stole the keys, he cranked the car, I don't even know how to drive! AND! And. He forced me out of the hotel room." At this point Aly was laughing so hard it echoed through the whole station. I looked to the side and noticed Nick standing beside me shocked.

"I cannot believe you would blame me for everything!" The officer unlocked the cell.
"Okay you two. Off you go." We both walked out and Greg shook his head and said.
"Two nights in. A. Row." I glared at him and my mom said.
"Okay officer how much do I owe?"
"Well considering they ran out of his taxi without paying last night... 35 dollars." My mom gave me a look and I pointed at Nick.
"Well that's okay here you go." She reached in her purse and gave him the money. He took it and said.
"Oh that's not all. You still have to pay for the damages to this mans taxi."
"Well it can't be that much." He looked over at his computer thingy then said.
"Now you owe 753 dollars." My mouth dropped and I looked at my mom.
She chuckled nervously and said.
"Well kids there's a time when you face your consequences." She handed the man the money and we went outside the station.
She turned to Nick and said.
"Nicolas Avery Walker. I have never in all my days seen something so completely horrid." He looked at the ground and then she turned to me and said.
"And you my friend are grounded til you die." I sighed and answered.
"Mom I'm sorry. If you want I'll get a job and pay you back. But come on we were just having fun i've never done anything like that in my life you've gotta give me credit." She didn't say anything she just shook her head so I smirked and poked her stomach then said in a sing-song voice.
"It could be worse." She half smiled and said.
"How worse?"
"I could be auditioning for the third season of teen mom. OR... On an episode of Jersey Shore. Or... I could just have herp-" She covered my mouth then said.
"Okay. Okay. You have convinced me. Now let's go back to the room and get packed up." I smiled triumphantly and we all got in the cab.
I packed all my stuff up and waited for Aly to finish so we could go to my brother's room and do nothing mom was having her very last night with Joe and Cassie was in the bathroom showering.
I was sitting on the bed when Aly came in and stood at the doorway and smiled at me knowingly.
"You kissed him again. Didn't you?" I narrowed my eyes and answered.
"No. I have not. We havn't even talked about last night."
"You expect me to believe that? You guys were alone for two and a half hours."
"Yeah and we were in JAIL for half that."
"Uh huh. And what about the other half?"
"We just... Talked." She gasped then said.
"YOU LOST YOUR 'V' CARD!" My eyes widened and my mouth dropped. I cannot believe.
"I cannot believe you! I am not a slut! And I refuse to have a one night stand with him." She narrowed her eyes at me then said.
"Losing your virginity does not make you a slut. And besides it wouldn't be a one night stand because you love him." I picked up a pillow and threw it. She dodged it then said.
"Nick and Abbby sitting in a tree." She continued to sing while I got up and chased her out of the room she ran out to the hotel hallway and started to bam on their room door. I wasn't too far behind when I grabbed her arm and made her stop.
She started laughing and I was gawking at her.
Greg opened the door and I stormed past him she was still laughing when she walked in the room when Greg smiled and said.
"What's so funny." Aly stopped laughing and looked at me. I glared at her and she answered.
"Nothing. Were just kidding around." I flopped down on the couch and said.
"No she's just kidding around." Nick walked in the room and Aly wiggled her eyebrows at me.
"What's up with all the noise?" I sighed and looked up at the ceiling. Could she be any more annoying? I like Nick but I don't love him. Were not even together! When we go home O don't how I'm gonna face Abe he'll be all happy and lovey and I'll be guilty and feel all weird. Why does everything have to be so complicated? God must hate me.
Nick sat down next to me and I looked down to where I caught Alison making kissey faces. I gawked at her and she didn't stop. We were having a whose gonna give in first macth when someone knocked at the door.
"I sprang up and went for it. There HAS to be a God! When I opened it Cassie was standing there with dripping wet hair and her night clothes was on.
"You guys left me." I smiled and stepped to the side so she could come in. Aly sat up straight then smiled.
"HEY! Join the party!" I sat back down on the couch and Aly turned to HBO. The Town was coming on and I guess we were gonna just watch it.
While I was sitting there I was trying to figuire out what I was gonna do about Nick when Cassie sat up and said.
"I have to get something out of my room." She sat up and Greg said.
"I'll go with you." I shook my head and went back to the movie. That's when the impossible happened. Aly sprang up and said.
"I'm gonna go take a walk. You guys enjoy that movie." I looked up at her wide eyed and she winked at me. The door closed and it was just me... And Nick. Why is she doing this?
I cleared my throat and looked at Nick. He smiled at me and I nevously smiled back and turned back to the movie. This shouldn't be awkward. But it is. He sighed which caused me to look at him.
"Abby." Oh geez.
"Yes Nick?"
"You know. I well we never got to talk about... Last night." I sighed and answered.
"I know. I was kinda hoping we wouldn't have to." He narrowed his eyes at me and I rolled my eyes.
"Listen. Nick. I like you. God do I like you but-"
"But you want to be with Abe." I scrathed my head and looked at the floor. A pained expression crossed his face. He got up and knelt down in front of me. I looked at him confused when he grabbed my hand.
"Abby. What happened last night can't happen again." A look of horror crossed my face. What? Didn't he like me? But he kissed me. Right? I mean surely I'm not making this up. This is impossible! He saw the distress on my face then said.
"Listen I know that we kissed but it was a splur of the moment thing. I'm getting back together with Megan. Look Abby. I've known you my whole life..." He trailed off and by now I was fighting back tears. I want to crawl in an empty, dark, dirty corner and die. This can't be happening. I tried to make him let my hand go but he wouldn't.
"Its okay. Really. I mean... I have a boyfriend and maybe you just missed Megan and I missed Abe and you were there and I was there. It doesn't matter." He looked at me shocked and I sat up. He finally let me go when the hotel door opened. It wasn't Aly. Of course. It was Greg and Cassie.
I walked over to the door and said.
"I'm going to bed now. I'll see you guys tomorrow." And with that I went back to my room.
Aly was sleeping next to me and Cassie was over in the other bed but I just couldn't seem to fall asleep. I was gonna tell him we had to stop anyways. So why do I feel like someone just dug a huge whole in my heart? And better yet why do I feel like I have made the biggest mistake of my life. I wasted my heart on him this whole time. It was stupid to think that someone like Nick would be interested in me anyways.
But that's what I get for cheating. I have to tell Abe. I'm going to tell Abe. Even he hates me after. Even if I'm left alone. It's strange. My entire life has been like this... Yet it suprises me every time.
Its over its time to stop dreaming. Everything isn't ice-cream and cherries and the sooner I realize it the better. Nick is getting back together with Megan and I am about to ruin a perfectly good relationship over nothing.
I sighed and wiped a stray tear from my face. I turned over to my side.
I know now that Nick doesn't like me. He made that perfectly clear. Although it was fun to imagine. We wern't the most compatible people and we don't have a lot in common and were probably not good for eachother. But it was the thought that maybe. Just maybe. We'd be good... Together.
