Naomi's POV

'Mental note,' I think to myself as I handed one of the kids a slice of cake while Brie worked silently behind me, 'Kill Paige when you see her.'

Why Paige would tell Brie, Brie Bella, the girl that hated my soul and vice Versa for my own sake, to come and work a station with me was beyond my knowledge.

We didn't speak to each other, but only the customers, which I think was for the best because I knew that any type of conversation would start and end in an argument.

"Hey there NaBae." Sasha said as she approached the table with Tamina.

"What's up boo." I say to her as I leaned against the counter.

"Just checking up on you..." she mumbled as she eyes Brie, but then looked back at me, "You alright?"

"Peachy." I say while giving her my best smile, "Is Dean back with the kids yet."

"Oh yeah," she told me, "Sarah's in the bounce house and Benny is running around having the time of his little live. You haven't seen them yet?"

"No not yet." I say to them, "I've been working my butt off. These kids just keep coming back for more and more. I'd to be the parents that have to deal with this sugar rush tonight."

"Have y'all sold out?" She asked me and I nodded.

"Were out of cookies and brownies, all we have is cake and we're trying to make the slices small so we can stretch it." I say to her with a sigh, "When we sell out I'm done. I've been on my feet for two hours, I'm ready to sit down."

"We can't have you sitting on the job now can we?" I heard a voice with a Irish accent say and I smiled in the direction of the little devil.

"What's up Finn?" I say to him while he wrapped a arm around Sasha.

"The ceiling?" Finn suggested while looking up.

Sasha rolled her eyes, "Of course you'd say that."

Finn laughed, "Mind if I steal her away from you for a few Naomi?"

"She's all your Finnyboy." I say to him and waved as the two of them walked off.

"Um," I heard Brie say, "We only have one cake left."

"Just keep cutting small slices." I say to her plainly while grabbing a towel to wipe off the counter.

"What if we sell out?" She asked me.

"Then we sell out." I responded, "And we can both keep out of each others way."

"I'm in your way?" She responded.

"Not physically." I say to her, "But mentally your too close for comfort."

She sighed and closed her eyes, "What's the even suppose to mean."

"It means let's hurry up and sell this stuff so we can move on Brie." I say to her, being as short with her as I could.

"I need to talk to you after this." She said to me but didn't look at me directly.

I laughed, "No."

She sighed again, "What do you mean no?"

"Look I know that 'no' is a foreign word to you, but no." I say with a shrug.

Talk to me? About what? There's nothing to be said.

All of our 'fight' rumors had died down, she acted like she didn't want any help from anyone, so why would I take time out of my day to talk to her when I've tried to help before? I shouldn't. Rude? Maybe. But I don't care. You be in my shoes and make the call.

"Naomi please." She said to me.

"I said no." I say to her.

"Why not?" She asked while crossing her arms.

"Here's a better question," I say to her, "Why should I?"

She stayed quite for minute and pinched the bridge of her noes.

"You're right." She admitted, "You shouldn't have to. You have every right not to. So just listen to me right now."

"Girl-" I started to say but she stopped me.

"I'm a bitch." She said quickly.

"You wanna tell me something I don't know?" I say while crossing my arms.

"And I've done some pretty bad stuff back in the past." She said to me then sighed, "Real bad..."

"Your point?" I asked her.

"I don't expect you to believe me when I say this." She said with a sigh, "But I'm sorry."

I stayed silent for a moment before I suddenly burst out laughing.

"Oh your right." I say as I calmed down and turned my back to her to finish wiping the counter, "I don't believe you."

"That's fine, I just wanted to say it." She said to me, then remained silent.

It was dead silent between the two of us, and I kept finding myself shaking my head.

An apology shouldn't be an offense right?

But seriously feel like she just insulted me.

She wanted to apologize?

After years and years of nothing but us clashing at every given moment?

It was laughable, hence why I laughed.

It was a fucking joke.

But honestly, I was awe struck.

"So what was the point of that?" I finally asked, "Why waist 5 minutes of our lives off of that?"

I could feel her eyes on my, but I kept my back to her.

I heard her sigh, "Because."

"Because what?" I asked her.

She gave a cold laugh, "Stop trying to act like you want to understand me."

"I don't wanna understand you, I wanna know why you waisted my time." I say to her.

"It wasn't a waist of time to me." She snapped and I immediately turned around to face her.

"Then what was it to you?" I shot back.

"Necessary." She stressed, "I needed to say that to you, to Paige, and there's still other I need to talk to."

"Why?" I asked her.

"Because I can't like like this Naomi." She said loudly and slammed her hand down on the counter.

"You can't like someone forced you to fucking make peoples life a fucking hell." I growled back, "Check yourself. That was you. All you. So if you wanna get mad at some, look in the mirror."

"You don't think I get mad when I fucking see that bitch staring back at me?" She growled and I raised an eyebrow, "Yeah I get what i did."

"So now, out of all times, you wanna try to make things right?" I asked her, "Do you know how fake you look?"

"That's the thing Naomi." She shot at me, "I don't care. I don't care, because I'm trying to get this off of my chest for my sake. You don't have to go to bed at night with regret and feeling, legit feeling every pain from everybody that you've called a name, or made fun of. And you would think sleep would take you away, but I doesn't. No. it's a 24 hour hell that I live because I did this to myself. I made fun of people, I started arguments with people on line, I tried, and boy did I try, to make everyone's life a living hell because I thought it was funny."

"You don't get it." She said, but not looking at me any more, her hands pushed back her hair while her eyes wandered the ground, "You don't know what it's like to feel like you have some sort of demon controlling your fucking life. I've been told Karma was a bitch, but I've looked Karma in the face and saw that it was myself. And by god, I'm killing myself with every fucking breath I take."

"And I found out." She said quietly, "When I say sorry, or at least when I practiced say sorry, I felt better. I felt like maybe I could be a normal human being and be nice to people, consider their feelings. I figured I could change, and maybe I could be ok again."

I stayed silent and stared at her for a few moments, wanting to respond, but wanting to let her words sink in some.

"You said I don't know what it's like." I say to while shaking my head, "But I do. You see Brie, everyone has that little demon that wants to fuck your life up and leave you for dead, you've just never experienced it until now."

"I had to live with you hating my soul every fucking day." I say to her, "I even remember the day after my Mom passed, you called me a motherless bastard. You said that 'maybe if I wasn't so needy of my parents' you said 'maybe if you would had quit cheer' you said 'maybe if you would stop trying to make them proud of my worthless ass' then maybe she would still be here."

"Those words hurt Brie." I say to her while trying to control myself, "You won't ever experience how bad it hurt me. How much I cried because I though that maybe, just maybe, you were right."

She covered her face with her hands and I simply shook my head.

"I'm sorry." She mumbled as she wiped her face, "I'm really really sorry."

"I don't care." I say while turning my back to her, feeling the tears prick my eyes but not dare letting them fall.

"I just-" she started but then stopped, "I'm so sorry."

"The word sorry means nothing coming from you." I say to her while quickly wiping my eyes.

"Then I'll prove it." She said to me.

"Don't." I say to her, "I want nothing more to do with you Brie. You said what you had to say for 'your sake'. Now you can leave. Move on, get out. I don't care. We're through here."

She stayed silent for a moment and seconds later I felt her standing right next to me.

"I hurt you more than anyone else didn't I?" She asked me.

"You think I'm going to give you the satisfaction of knowing that?" I said to her.

"I wanna prove to you that I am sorry Naomi." She repeated, "Because I am."

"You wanna prove it?" I asked her.

"Yes." She responded.

"Well then." I say while walked away from the booth, "If I don't see a fucking major personality change, then I ain't believing shit."

%^%^%^%^%^%^%^%^%^%^%^

"Die!" Sarah shouted through a fit of laughter as she repeatedly hit Dean with a pool noodle.

"Violence!" Dean shouted back with a laugh as he tried to hit her with his pool noodle.

"Sarah stab him in the heart!" Paige shouted at her and Sarah poked him in the right side of his chest, "Other side!"

Dean playfully fell to the ground and stuck his young out of his mouth while Sarah climbed on top of him and stabbed the noodle into his stomach.

"I am victorious!" She shouted as she raised the pool toy in the air.

I laughed while Nikki went and picked her up and spun her around in a victory chant.

"Sarah!" Benne shouted as Roman approached us with Benny in his arms dressed in a small football jersey, "Why did you kill Dean?"

"He tested me." Sarah said while Roman sat down next to me.

"Oh my gosh." I say as I take Benny from Roman, "Aren't you adorable?"

"I look like Roman!" He shouted with a laugh as inspected his jersey.

"You look better than me though." Roman said to him.

I smiled at Roman while Benny sat in my lap.

The carnival was over for the most part and they would be tally how much money we raised this weekend. Now us as a student body we're taking a little r&r before we stared cleaning up.

"Stay down your suppose to be dead." Sarah whined when Dean got up.

"The floor is too cold to be dead." Dean said while standing up and poping his back, "Ouch."

"How's the back feel?" Seth asked him.

"Pretty good." Dean replied, "As long as I don't make any sudden movements or jerks I'm good. Really don't take the pain meds anymore so I'm doing good." 

"What about you Nik?" I asked Nikki.

"Ive been doing fine." She said with a shrug, "I haven't had too many problems."

"Things are finally getting back to normal." Punk said as he stuffed a chip in his mouth and crumbs fell to the floor.

"Could become any more messy?" AJ asked as she went to go grab a broom.

"I mean, I could be." He said with a smirk before taking a bite of another chip.

I rolled my eyes at them but smiled. It was peaceful right now.

Dean was currently doing some dance with Sarah while Nikki laughed.

Seth and Paige sat towards the back and were currently laughing about something.

Hunter and Steph sat off in the corner in a quiet conversation, but the smiles they gave each other signaled that everything was fine.

AJ and Punk were arguing about chips now, but arguing is sorta their thing. While Randy quietly laid down on one of the tables and was texting someone.

Then there was Roman who was tickling Benny who sat on my lap and it kept bringing a smile to my face.

"Can we go get some pizza?" Sarah asked loudly.

"Sarah you had 4 slices of pizza earlier." Dean pointed out.

"I'm a growing child." She said while waving her hand, "Is there a law saying how much pizza I can and can't have? No. so feed me more."

"We'll find you some more pizza, geez." Dean said as Renee opened the door and entered the cafeteria, "Renee, do you know if we have any more pizza?"

"No." she said quickly while walking towards the east exit and I raised an eyebrow.

"Hey." Paige said to her, "What's wrong?"

"I'm going home." She said quickly but Nikki stood up.

"Hold on, wait." She said to her, "What's wrong Renee?"

"How about you ask your twin Nikki." Renee shot at her while towards the door where more people were staring to flood in behind Summer, and the woman of the hour, Brie Bella.

I shook my head at the sight of her.

She claimed she wanted to change? Ha ha, wow.

"Where do you think your going Young?" Brie shouted at her.

"Oh my fucking-" Renee started while pulling at her hair, "Will you just fucking leave me alone?"

"Funny how your attitude changed now that we're Nikki, wow." Brie said while rolling her eyes.

"My attitude doesn't change for anyone bitch." Renee said while storming back over towards us and Roman stepped in her way to keep her from getting to Brie.

"AJ, take them out of here." Dean said while pointing to Benny and Sarah.

"Brie what are you doing?" Nikki asked.

"The better question what is she doing?" Miz said while pointing to Renee.

"What are you talking about?" Paige asked.

"She's fucking harassing me about my family so I decided to go the fuck off." Renee said.

"All I did was ask a question." Brie growled at her.

"And I told you to back off." Renee said to her.

"You are such an attention whore." Summer shot at her.

"Summer I will roast you over a fucking flame if you even speak to me again!" Renee shouted at her Roman blocked her from passing him again.

"Brie, you should have just left her alone if she told you to leave her alone." Nikki said calmly, but sounded tired.

"All I did was ask a fucking question." Brie said while throwing her hands in the air, "I'm so fucking sorry that she wants to keep her entire pathetic life a secret. Oops. Sorry. My fucking bad. Jesus Christ."

"Brie!" Nikki shouted at her.

"Pathetic life?" Renee said to her while shaking her head, "You know what. I'm out."

"Renee." Paige called after her but she kept walking 

I simply shook my head and kept to myself.

Nikki sighed, "Brie, I really don't have time to start asking questions about this shit tonight. Just go home."

"You don't even know what happened." Brie said to her.

"I don't need to know." Nikki said to her, "I've been through enough if these to know that shit got started and you were involved in it, and I don't feel like talking about it. Just go home, Brie please."

"You won't even listen to me." Brie protested.

"Listen to what?" Nikki snapped and it honestly surprised me when she did, "A load of fucking bullshit."

Brie stared at her for a minute, "What did you just say to me."

Nikki rolled her eyes, "Just go-"

"You will never fucking speak to me like that." Brie growled at her.

"Does she look like a fucking peasant to you?" I piped up. No, she's wasn't about to disrespect her.

"Was I talking to you?" She asked me.

"No, but I responded." I say to her, "What happened to your 'change' Brie?"

She stayed quiet for a minute and just stared at me.

"That's what I thought." I said while turning away from her.

"Do you think you have something hanging over my head?" She snarled at me.

"No." I say to her while looking at her again, "I'm just reminding you of what you said to me."

"Oh whatever." She said while rolling her eyes.

"See this is why I don't get you." I say to her, "Away from everyone else, you actually act like you have a heart, but now that we're in front of everyone else, you decide to put on."

"Me? Put on?" She asked me, "Oh please."

"I don't even know why I'm involved in this." I mumbled while crossing my arms, "Got my blood pressure all high and shit. I don't have time for this."

"Oh it's just like you to back down from a fight." She snarled at me.

"You got the wrong one Brie." I said with a cold laugh, "You don't wanna try me."

"Brie your legit trying to start something." Dean said with a long groan, "Please just go."

"And how about you go and get your child support papers ready." Brie shot at her.

"Will you just fucking go?" Nikki shouted at her and the entire room got silent, "Now. I'm sick of it. I'm sick of you. Get out of my fucking sight. I'm so fucking tired of... get out. I'm done. Fucking get out."

"Since when do I listen to you?" Brie shot back at her.

"Well if you don't wanna leave." I say while standing up, "I guess we can have a little come to Jesus meeting."

"Nams please." Nikki said to me, "Let's not even get started."

"No Nikki." I say to her, "I think this is something you need to hear."

"Whatever your about so say Fatu," Brie growled at me, "I suggest you tread lightly. Tell any of my business and I'll-"

"You'll what?" I say while stepping closer to her, silencing her instantly. Miz placed a hand in front of her and I immediately pushed it away, "I'm not telling your business. I'm telling Nikki her business."

"What are you talking about?" I heard Nikki ask as as I glared at Brie.

"Summer is there something would like to say to us?" I say aloud but still looking at Brie.

"You fucking bitch." Brie spat in my face and it was enough to make me shove her backwards.

She attempted to lunge towards me but Roman pulled me away and she ended up falling on the ground and glaring up at me.

"You're a fucking bitch!" She yelled at me again.

"Go ahead and tell everyone Summer," I shouted while looking at her. A worried expression wore on her face, "Go ahead and tell everyone."

"I..." she started.

"You better not." Miz growled at her.

"Say it Summer." Paige said to her, "You're already in this. Just spit it out."

"Say what?" Dean asked as he looked at her,

"Summer-" Miz started to say but I interrupted him.

"Don't worry about him Summer." I say to her, "Just say it."

She stayed quiet for a while longer, then quickly brought her hands to her face and mumbled something.

"What?" Nikki asked.

"I said I'm sorry." She said while removing her hands then looked at Dean, "I... Dean..."

She stayed silent for a minute.

"What is it Summer?" Dean asked again.

She shook her head, "You're not the father. It's not your. The baby isn't yours."

The entire room was silent for what seemed like eternity.

"I'm not?" Dean finally spoke and Summer shook head.

I glanced over at Nikki and saw her staring at Summer for a while, then her eyes landed on Brie.

"You lied to me..." Nikki said to her, "You told us that it was his..."

"Nikki-" Brie started to say as she stood up, but Nikki stopped her.

"Stop." Nikki said to her, "No, don't get near me."

"But Nikki-" she started again.

"Unless you have a fucking explanation to why the fuck you lied to me, don't talk to me!" Nikki shouted at her.

"I went through a wreak because you decided to tell a lie." Nikki growled, "I got cuts and bruises and everything else because you wanted to tell a lie."

"You had him worried sick because you wanted to tell a fucked up lie?!" Nikki shouted at her, "Brie! A child is a life changing thing and you dared to tell him, to make him think that he was about to have to take on something huge all because you wanted to tell a lie?"

Brie stayed silent and glared at me and I gave her one back.

"Oh that's it isn't it?" She said, "I'm the bad guy!"

Nikki shook her head, "You're sick."

"You want to tell all my business like you don't have fucking secrets." She growled at me, tears streaming down her cheeks, but I held my head high.

"I think you've done enough for the night Brie." Dean said to her, but did nothing but look at the ground.

"No!" Brie shouted, "No! You wanna make life a hell? Then how about this? How about you tell Roman about Randy, Naomi."

"What?" Roman quickly asked from behind me and I felt my anger rising.

"What the hell are you talking about Bella?" I growled.

"Yeah because I'd sure like to know to." Randy said while crossing his arms.

"She. Cheated. On. You." Brie said to Roman, then pointed to Randy, "With. Him."

Roman shook his head, "No. No, maybe I would believe if it was coming anyone besides you."

"Oh so you want proof." Brie said while taking out her phone, "so what the hell is this?"

She shoved the phone in my face and I had to resist the urge to punch her right then.

When I glance at the picture of Randy and I back in my kitchen on thanksgiving, I felt my stomach drop.

"What the hell." I heard Roman mumble behind me and bit my lip to the point that I knew I had broken skin.

"Need anymore proof?" Brie asked.

"You cheated on me?" Roman asked me and I turned around to face him and I really wish I wouldn't have.

"Roman I didn't mean to." I say to him.

"How the fuck did you not mean to?" He said and pulled away when I tried to reach for his arm.

"It was a fucking kiss." Randy mumbled, "Chill out."

"Did you say something?" Roman snapped, "Or am I just imagining my fist flying across your fucking face."

"At least I didn't fucking sleep with her like you did when I said that I was interested in her." Randy growled back while standing up.

"Stop." I said to Randy, "Roman I-"

"Leave me alone Naomi." He cut me off while shoving his hands deep into his pockets and walking towards the door.

"Roman, no talk to me-" I started to say while following him.

"I said leave me alone!" He shouted at me and I immediately stopped while he kept walking.

I watched as he harshly swung the door open walked out.

'No.' was the only though I thought I thought as I quickly jogged over to the door before it closed.

"Where are you going?" I shouted after Roman as he walked further into the dark parking lot.

"Go back inside." He said to me.

"Roman I'm not leaving you-" I started.

"That's why I'm leaving you." He said to me.

"Roman please just listen to me." I begged as he unlocked his truck.

"I'm not." He said while opening the truck door.

"Roman please." I said and hurriedly grabbed his arm while trying to get in, "Listen to me please, I-"

He stopped me when his lips roughly crashed onto my own and he pulled me into a tight embrace.

'Don't let go, don't let go.' I chanted as I felt a lump form in my threat. I wasn't about to loose him, not like this, not because of her.

When he broke it, I quickly wiped my face and rested my head on his shoulder, but looked up when he gently pushed me away.

"I need space." He said to me quietly, "I'm not about to say something to you that I'll regret. And I don't want to argue with Randy."

"Where are you going?" I quickly asked him as he opened his truck door and climbed in, "Roman."

He shut the door but rolled down the window, looking down at me and the look in his eyes complete broke me.

He was upset. He was beyond upset. He looked crushed. His words didn't say it but his eyes told everything.

He was mad at me, and I could see that, he was furious at Randy and I could see that too. But he just looked so... sad.

"Roman baby I'm so sorry." I said to him while trying to keep myself together.

"Get Nikki or Paige to take you home." He said to me, "Get in the house and get some sleep."

"Roman, where are you going?" I asked him again.

"Don't worry about it." He mumbled, "Just go."

"You can't leave me right now." I say to him.

"I'm not leaving you." He said to me, "I'm leaving everyone else and I'm not taking you with me. Naomi. I need space before I deal with anything else. Please. Just give me some space."

I stared at him for a few minutes before nodding.

"Ok." I said quickly.

Without another word, he rolled up his window and put the truck in drive, quickly pulling out of the parking lot and onto the road.

I bit my lip as hard as I allowed myself to and fought back every tear imaginable until I hurried my head in my hands.

Yeah. I was gonna fucking beat the hell out of Brie the next time I saw her for stirring this up.

But I was more mad at myself for even letting it happen.
