Three years went by and no one has heard or seen Brizee. Nick never stopped looking for her. Theresa filed for divorce
soon after she left Kevin and the divorce was final a month afterwards. Kevin went back to Kentucky. Brian and Brittany were
engaged to be married. AJ was doing some solo stuff. The guys decided to take a long break which they needed. Nick was on
a solo tour for his solo album. The guys but Kevin understood how much he wanted to do it. Kevin didn't care what Nick did.
When asked if he supported Nick in his solo career, Kevin would say he did to the press. But Nick knew he didn't care. Nick
was in Denver for a show.
Meanwhile at an apartment in Denver.......
Brizee sat there staring at a pic of Nick and her when they were little. She really missed him but she couldn't go
back. She heard a knock at the door. She got up and opened the door and saw AJ standing there. AJ was the only one who knew
where she was. He hugged her tight.
"You doing okay?" AJ said.
"Yeah, I guess," Brizee said. He came in and she
closed the door.
"Briz, you should go back to Nick, he hasn't stopped
looking for you, he needs you," AJ said.
"He's busy with his solo tour, he's doing good
and I'll just be in the way," Brizee said.
"Briz, he's here in Denver, he needs you, you
know how much he loves you and you love him, you two need to be together, he needs to see you," AJ said.
"AJ, I can't, it's too hard, Kevin hates me,"
Brizee said.
"Theresa divorced Kevin because it's Kevin's fault
that you left, he's back in Kentucky," AJ said.
"AJ, I left, how could he want me back after I
left him," Brizee said.
"He does, Briz, he is not mad at you for leaving,
he's mad at Kevin for making you go, he doesn't blame you, he doesn't hate you, he loves you and he told us he won't stop
until he finds you, so he's looking in every city he's in for the tour, now is your chance, baby, go to him," AJ said.
"I love him so much, AJ," Brizee said.
"I know you do, now come on, I'll take you to
him," AJ said.
"Mommy,"
a small voice said. AJ looked and saw a little girl there. She had blonde hair and blue eyes. AJ looked at Brizee.
"Hayley, this is your uncle AJ, AJ, this is my
daughter, Emily," Brizee said picking Emily up.
"Do you know my daddy?" Emily asked.
"Nick's her dad, isn't he," AJ said. Brizee nodded.
"Yes," Brizee said.
"I know your daddy, want to meet him?" AJ asked.
"Yes!" Emily said smiling.
"AJ," Brizee said.
"You can stay here, I'll bring her back," AJ said.
"I'll come," Brizee said. They went to the hotel
where Nick was staying. They walked in just as Nick got off the elevator. Brizee ducked into the bathroom. AJ looked around
and sighed.
"J!" Nick said.
"Hey man," AJ said.
"Who is this little princess," Nick said smiling
at Emily.
"This is Emily, Emily, this is Nick," AJ said.
"Daddy!" Emily said smiling at him.
"What," Nick said.
"Nick, this is your daughter, Emily," AJ said.
"My daughter," Nick said.
"Yeah, she's three years old," AJ said. Nick's
eyes widened.
"Three? Who is her mother," Nick said.
"Um," AJ said.
"Mommy, look, I found Daddy! Me and Uncle AJ found
Daddy!" Emily said looking behind AJ. Nick looked and saw Brizee standing there. Nick ran to her and hugged her tight.
"Brizee, thank god you are okay," Nick said.
"I see you met Emily," Brizee said.
"Yeah, and I can't believe it, she is ours and I am happy, I'm not letting you out of my sight again, both of you are
staying with me, I can't lose you again, I can't let you go," Nick said.
Thank god, I thought you would hate me, Brizee
said.
Never, I could never hate you, I know its not
your fault that you left, its Kevins, he drove you away, Nick said. Brizee nodded. Nick took Emily from AJ and pulled Brizee
close.
We are a family, Nick said. Brizee smiled and
Emily kissed Nicks cheek.
Yup, Brizee said.
Come on, Nick said. They all went to the venue.
While Nick was onstage, Brizee, Emily, and AJ sat and watched him.
This is wonderful, AJ, Nick, Emily, and I are
a family, its so perfect, Im back with Nick and everything is perfect, Brizee said. AJ hugged her.
Its the way it should be, Briz, AJ said.
Brizee, Nick said.
Yes, Nicky, Brizee said.
I love you, more than that, Nick said. He sang
More Than That to her by himself and she knew everything was going to be okay.
