Kat smiled. She knew Nikki had not accepted and moved on that quickly, but repressing feelings was what Kat did so she couldn't fault Nikki for it.
She swept a hand through her hair, smiling sheepishly through her blush. [color=6ecff6]"Yeah. Mr. Romance is working in overdrive, not that I am complaining about that,"[/color] she said then her smile faded as a serious look came to her eyes. [color=6ecff6]"I just hope he is sure I'm what he really wants... that he doesn't regret this later on."[/color]

Walking into the cafeteria they got food and sat down at a table together. [color=6ecff6]"I trust you with my life and with Grace's life, so please don't be offended when I say this Nikki but... I don't know if I can leave her, even if it's just for a few days. I'll be worried constantly. You're a badass auntie for sure and I know if anyone tried to hurt Grace you'd barbeque them, but I can't help it. She's my baby and I've never been away from her for more than a few hours."[/color]

She picked at the food on her plate. [color=6ecff6]"And that's not all. I can't believe I'm saying this but... God damn it I'm nervous Nikki. Really really nervous and that scares the hell out of me. I'm going to have to tell him. I'm going to have to say things that I have buried for years. I will have to relieve it all so he can know what he's getting himself into. It's not fair for him not to know. So we may be coming back not married at all."[/color]
Her voice choked a bit on the last words and she stabbed her fork into the table, leaving gouge marks. [color=6ecff6]"When did that bastard become so God damn important to me?"[/color] she asked his sister in frustration. [color=6ecff6]"If I didn't love him so much this wouldn't be so hard."[/color]
