No Good Nick

Part 4

Liz: Jeremy that wasn't nice.

Ed: Jeremy you can't say things like that to nick you know she has had a hard time with her family and being homeless and everything else

Jeremy: I know it came out wrong I feel really bad and didn't mean to offend her she's my sister I don't want that to be any different

Ed: Well Jeremy you have to be more delicate around her she is only a little girl remember

Liz: Ed hunny, she is 13

Jeremy: I know, I know.

Liz: Well you obviously don't you need to learn to be more careful

Ed: If we have to have this conversation again your getting your phone taken off you for 2 weeks

Jeremy: Dad!

Ed: What?

Liz: It was sar-

Jeremy: sarcasm it was sarcasm dad

All laugh

Ed's POV

I was so annoyed at Jeremy, he hurt Nick. I know he didn't mean to but he knows that Nick has been homeless and he knows everything about Sam and Dorothy and her dad and that everything that happened with her dad was partly his fault, it wasn't Jeremy's fault he stole but it was Jeremy's fault that the shop didn't have enough customers because he stole the menus I know I was wrong to not give him the loan too but at least I am being nice to Nick. I will wait until Molls comes down to tell us that Nick is okay before I go up and see her to make sure she is okay. Jeremy can be a pain sometimes.

Liz: What should we do about Jeremy if he hurts Nick again??

Ed: I have no clue but we will figure it out when it comes

Meanwhile

Molly's POV

I followed nick upstairs but our bedroom door was locked. I was really worried about Nick what Jeremy said was really upsetting he knows what is going on with her and he still said that I feel so bad for Nick but hopefully I can help her. I just hope she can open up to me if she can't then I'll just be there to comfort her.

I got to the bedroom door

Knocks*

Nick: Who is it?

Molly: It's me Nick, Can I come in?

Nick: okay I'll open the door just a sec

Molly: it's okay I can wait

When she opened the door I could tell she had been crying and I could hear it in her voice

She locked to door behind me

Molly: Are you okay?

Nick: I'm sorry if that wasn't cool what I did downstairs but it hurts you know

Molly: yeah I know I'm sorry that Jeremy's a jerk

Nick: I only locked the door because I don't want anyone to see me like this all way and vulnerable I trust you enough for you to see me like this

Molly: If you don't mind me asking

Nick: go ahead I'm already a mess

Molly: What hurt the most about what Jeremy said

Nick: I though it was him basically saying I'm not a part of this family and it reminded me of my dad and I was just thinking who loves me? Who wants a kid who has been through hell and back and I have no family Molls

Molly: Nick that's not true we're your family I'm your family and I love you more than anything you will always have a place with me all I want is for you to be happy and I want to be your best friend and I need to be there for you I'm sorry I haven't been there for these past few months and I should have been

Nick: Molls don't blame yourself it's my fault for running away because I have no family and I don't have a place and is everyone just using me does anyone really love me my dad used my Sam used me Dorothy used me. I don't know who I can trust anymore.

Nick fell to the floor sobbing so I hugged her

Molly: Everything will be okay Nick. I am your family and I love you so so much no one will ever come between us again. I'm not using you I promise you that.

Nick: Molls your the best thing in my life I'm scared someone will take you away from me again like my dad or Sam or Dorothy or even the authorities.

Molly: Nick no one can ever take me away from you I will always be here for you and that's a promise.

Nick: promise?

Molly: I swear down I will never let you go

I hugger her tighter, I felt like crying with her but I needed to make sure she knew I was never going to leva her but I also need to be strong. As she was crying in my arms we heard a knock on the door. I had to cry there was no stopping myself.

She wiped her tears I wiped mine too.
