A little Bit Yours by JP Saxe

________________________________________________________________________________

Sarah's POV

AJ and I haven't talked since she called me Wednesday morning. Two and a half days. We've gone longer without talking, but we at least text if we can't call each other. I know I told her I wanted us to take a break, and I tried making it sound like it was because she needed to focus on mending things there but honestly it was for me. When AJ called me at the beginning of the week to tell me she was going to Florida with Sofia I was extremely hurt. I cried for hours after that phone call, and the person I turned to...Nick. The moment I called him and told him everything that happened, he booked a ticket here to comfort me. He's been great to have around, and it's helped keep my spirits up. After I got off the phone with AJ Wednesday, I instantly went to Nick for reassurance that what I did was right. He had tried really hard to tell me that nothing was happening between AJ and Sofia, but I can't help but feel that me distancing myself from her will only lead to something happening.

I lean forward resting my head on Nick's shoulder and intertwining our fingers. We both sit watching Emma Kenney as she picks up the bowling ball. "Beat that Jeffery," Emma turns yelling as the ball takes out nine pins. I stand and act like I'm dusting off my shoulder. "Show her how it's done, Sar!" Nick yells clapping as I make my way towards the ball return. Tonight was much needed after the week my emotions have had. I've missed my friends and moving to LA made things hard, but we always made time to fly out to see each other. It only strengthened Emma and I's friendship in the end.

I grab the bowling ball and make my way towards the arrows in front of the lane before starting my approach. I swing my arm and release the ball. I bite my lip as I stand watching my ball move right down the middle, "Come on, come on." I mumble before the ball hits the pins knocking them all down. "Strike!" I shriek out making my way towards Nick who was getting up to meet me halfway. "That's my girl!" He wraps his arms around me picking me up a bit. "Dinners on you loser," he turns towards Emma, and I stick my tongue out at her. I watch as she groans standing up to put the balls away.

We pull up outside my house after grabbing dinner at the local diner, and I see my family sitting around a firepit behind the house. I take Nick's hand as we walk up the rock path to the backyard with Emma trailing us. My family wasn't too keen on me having Nick here, especially since I'm still technically dating AJ. I talked to my sister, Hannah, the same day I told AJ I wanted a break and she said that I needed to make up my mind. Either I was going to try and put my insecurities aside and work things out with AJ or I was going to let her go decide if Sofia is who she still loves, and I try things with Nick. I needed to listen to my heart, but my brain told me to do something different, so it was hard.

We greet my family before I decide I just want to go inside and lay in bed. Nick follows closely behind me up to my room. He had been staying in my room since he arrived. We hadn't done anything physical, except cuddle and hold hands. He understood, and constantly reassured me that he knows that's a line that shouldn't be crossed no matter what was going on with me and AJ. Tonight was no different, but I couldn't help by get lost in him holding me.

"Have you heard from AJ," I shake my head at Nick's question. I got lost playing with his hand and he reaches up with his other hand to cup my face. I melt into his touch. Why does this feel so good and so bad at the same time? I mean, AJ and I are on a break, right? We haven't talked for a couple of days, and I'm sure she'll come here for filming and tell me she kissed Sofia to see if the feelings were still there. With that logic, I look up into Nick's blue eyes. Before I know it, we're getting closer and closer until then our lips meet. We've kissed on the set of Charmed, I mean he's my boyfriend in the show. But this kiss, the emotions feel so real compared to those kisses. We get lost in the kiss until we both start running out of air. We pull apart leaning our foreheads together. "Wow," Nick whispers between catching his breath. My eyes are still closed trying to catch my breath. Shit! I just kissed someone else, and I liked it. This is not good.
