While Nick probably had reason to feel awkward because of Holly's words, he smirked. She was a funny kid, and he knew that Holly was just odd like this. She probably wasn't trying to be rude. She was just very honest in a way that represented the childish ways that her brain worked. It wasn't a bad thing, really. It probably wouldn't serve her well in the "real world" because the real world wasn't meant for people with disabilities in any way, shape, or form, but anyone who knew Holly would probably enjoy her eventually. Her innocence grew on even the coldest of people. Brooke was a good example of that. No matter how strongly Brooklyn would say the girl bothered her, Nick knew that the blonde cared about Holly more than she cared about most people. It was sweet, especially because that side of Brooklyn rarely came out.
As Holly spoke to Chanel and Makayla added her thoughts in, Nick busied himself with Chanel's phone. If the girls didn't have a preference, he would pick what he was craving. He already always had a big appetite, but knowing that he was going to soon be high and that he had done well financially today only meant that he was going to order all the more food. The Bus Stop Cafe sounded good. They had everything, basically, so it would be an easy way to hit all of his cravings in just one order. After adding buffalo wings, a Philly Cheesesteak sandwich, Chicken Parmesan, onion rings, penne a la vodka, and a slice of chocolate layer cake to the order, he handed the phone back to Chanel so that she and Makayla could add what they wanted. "Go in on it," he said quietly with a smirk. "I don't wanna be the only one eating good."
He would have headed into Chanel's room but recalled her comment about needing to freshen up and didn't want to intrude, so he slipped his backpack over his shoulders again and waited. It seemed like the only appropriate thing to do until he was invited into a room or at least until Holly was clearly settled in. He was surprised at how quickly she disappeared, but then again, Makayla clearly knew what worked with the girl, so it wasn't too shocking.
