I sit on my bed for what seems to be like hours before it dawns on me that I have school.

I hurriedly get out of bed and run to the bathroom. Fifteen minutes later I'm heading down stairs dressed in a navy blue leather skirt, white t-shirt and pink vans.

I look for my dad but there is no sign of him anywhere. I try his cellphone but it goes to voicemail.

And the award of father of the year goes to...

Christian Quin

My dad !

I roll my eyes at my current situation and head for the garage where I know Will is impatiently waiting for me.

I don't give any thoughts to breakfast. I'll simply get a latté and doughnuts from Starbucks before getting to school.

My day at school goes smoothly. I don't tell Charlie that I've been 'hanging' out with Oren, and trust me when I say I feel terrible. It's like I've broken some kind of girl-code.

When it's time to go to home I head for the tracks to find Oren. I haven't seen him the whole day and something doesn't seem right.

"Holla"

A Spanish boy with curly black hair greets me as I'm seated on the bleachers watching the track team.

Kel

I immediately remember him.

"The spanish, Kel..." Charlie continues, "Is the ultimate player. He's dating Karen... the girl seated on the table, but he's also dating twelve more..."

He's one of the members of Oren's inner circles.

"So... what is a beautiful girl like you... doing in a place like this ?" He asks soothingly in his thick Spanish accent.

If I wasn't into arrogant, elegant, socialite and reckless bad boys... I would have found him attractive.

"Really ? That's the best you can do ? A bar pick-up line ?" I ask and he smiles in amusement.

"You know..." He starts. "...I would have pursued you if you were not taken. Too bad you're Oren 's girl."

The f*ck...

"I'm not Oren's 'girl' " I say the last part using air quotes.

He bursts out laughing.

What's funny ?

"If you're not his girl then why did he warn us to stay away from you ?! Huh ? "

He did that ? Is that why his group of boys have never bothered me ?

I snap out of my thoughts and shift my gaze to Kel.

"Speaking of Oren... where is he ? I haven't seen  him in school ?"

"Pretty... You haven't seen him because he didn't come."
