IT ALL STARTED IN HIGH SCHOOL

Everything is New

It's been a week since I moved to Alpena, Michigan from Florida. I can't believe I have to leave everything I worked so hard to achieve to be with my dad.
The area he lives in is quite upscale. There aren't any apartments around. No loud noise and the neighbors seems to mostly stick to themselves here. The most you hear is hello or a greeting depending on the time of day.
I try my best to stay in door. Dad has a pretty nice house. It's really a statement for someone who went through a lot of struggles. I must admit he has done a great job for himself. I wish mom could be here to see this. That he has changed. He works as a home depot manager. He leaves really early for work but always makes it home before 6. I must admit I am proud of this man.
I remember the first day I got here. I was amazed by the fact that he actually had a room setup for me. There were books on shelves, a computer desk with my own printer and computer. It's as if he knew I would be coming here. There were three other bedrooms including his and two bathrooms. It's as is this man bought this house with the intention of having a large family.
I chuckled at the fact that he bought dolls and teddy bears and placed them on the bed. His gestures were all just so welcoming.

"Hey dad what's up?" I answered my phone that brought me back to the future with its ring tone. "Just checking in on you baby girl. Remember we have an appointment to go to Alpena High today at 1 to finish up your transfer." He said over the line. "Yes dad I know. I remember. So ready when you are." I replied before we said our good bye.

I went downstairs and into the kitchen to fix myself a sandwich. I glanced at the time shown on the kitchen clock and it was just 9:30. I hurriedly eat and headed to the bathroom to get ready before Dad gets home.
I showered and then went through my clothes. I found a skinny high waist fashion nova jeans and a long sleeve red tight fit top. I sprayed my curly hair with some water I keep in a small spray bottle on my dresser. I don't wear make-up but a little eyeliner and lip gloss never killed anyone. I finished up with some perfume and before leaving my room I threw my side bag across my shoulder and headed downstairs. I looked at the time and it was almost 11. Dad should be here any minute now. I was putting together the rest of the papers the school had requested. Suddenly my mind runs on my best friend. I took my phone out and called her. "Hey babe what's up?" I am so happy to hear her on the other line. "Am good. Just getting ready to go meet with the administration office of the new school. Everything is just out of the norm for me. I miss you. I miss Aunt Jem. I miss the boys. I just miss it all." I lamented over the phone. "I know. We miss you more. Things are just so weird and lonely." Claire's tone made me want to cry. She is my everything. I don't know how I am gonna manage without her. We talked for a while. "Am gonna have to call you back later. My dad's here." I tell her then hang up after hearing dad pull into the drive way.

I met him outside and we pulled out the driveway and headed to Alpena High. When we got to the high school I was surprised to see how huge it actually is. I immediately started thinking of the many possibilities offered here. I think this is gonna be a challenge and am here to conquer. I feel so relaxed already.

As we sat waiting to hear my name I wanted to use the bathroom. "Dad I'll be right back. Gotta use the ladies room." I went to the receptionist and asked for the directions to the bathroom. After receiving it I thanked her and made my way to the bathroom.
I got there and made my way into one of the stalls. While inside I keep hearing moaning sounds from the stall on my left. I remember it being the last stall on that side. "Oh yeah. Yes baby. More. More." I listened and it sounds like a woman having sex and begging whoever giving it to her for me. "You love this don't you. You want me to fuck you harder? Tell me what you want" The voice of that person sounded rough and domineering. I was so shocked. I covered my mouth as I peed. Suddenly they stopped as if they heard me peeing. "Shit. Someone is in here. I thought you locked the bathroom door Caleb." The girl said seemingly upset. "Who cares. This pussy is mine. I can have it whenever and wherever." The way he sounded made me feel fearful for her.
I stayed quite for 5 more minutes. I heard the tap turn on and off and I breathed a sigh of relieve to know they left. I slowly opened the stall door and was about to walk to the tap. To my surprise the man I presume to be from the other stall was standing by the bathroom door with his arm crossed his chest. "I am sorry. But you do know that this is the girl's bathroom right." He walked towards me and towered over me. He had the most beautiful soft green eyes I have ever seen. His stature was so commanding. I backed away but my back came in contact with a closed stall marked 'out of service.'
"So you're the one eavesdropping on me and my girlfriend having a good time." His breath smelled minty. His shared a shocking resemblance to Hero Fiennes Tiffin a phenomenal movie actor who played Hardin in a sold out novel to movie series. I began feeling as if I am going to pass out. "Get the hell out of my way. Are you dumb? You two should be ashamed of yourselves." I gathered enough courage to respond pushing pass him and walked towards the water tap. "Oh someone's got an attitude. You must be new here." He smirked at me. "And what if I am? You think that I am afraid of you?" I smirked back. "You will soon enough new girl." He said with an evil grin on his face and leaned back on the closed stall. I flashed the water from my hand and left without even wiping my hand with any napkin.
I walked back to dad pissed at the fact that I am not fully enrolled as yet and some douche is giving me a hard time already. "You took your time." Dad told me. Standing by the office. "Did I miss anything?" "Yes you did. You got in." He was happy. I shaked the thought of what was making me upset and started celebrating with Dad.

Its the weekend. Saturday to be exact. Yesterday mishap kept playing in my mind. Its as if I wanted to see that strange guy again. My mind must be playing around I thought to myself. I never thought of a guy in that way and I won't keep doing it. No way. I decided to free my mind by going on the school's website to do a bit of catching up on the school's history.
I must have dozed off for a long while because I was startled out of a dream by the sudden knock on my door. "Nessa. Nessa. You ok? Can I come in?" Dad's voice made me remember what I was doing before I fell asleep. "Yeah sure. Dad." I replied sitting up on my chair.
"I just wanted you to know that we have been invited to a dinner party across the street by our neighbors the Carters. They are actually the ones who got me this house. They have strong ties with the bank I got the money from towards this house. Mrs Carter's father owns a bank in Detroit. They are really nice people." He seemed as if he could read my face expression which clearly showed I had no intention of going. "Huh ok Dad. Sure no problem. Let me go freshen up. Be down asap." I answered and walked towards the bathroom.

Before you know we are standing in front of the Carter's door. Dad pressed the door bell twice but no one answered. "Maybe they are not home." I felt bad for sounding too happy as I said this. "Hold on...
" As he was about to ring it the third time the door opened. "Hi. Come on in. Everyone is already at the table." The familiar voice said moving aside for us to get inside. YOU!!!! I thought to myself.

After being introduced to the family. I sat at the table in disbelief. That same arrogant bratty boy from school today. The self made bad boy who thinks he can mess with everyone. I sat at the table looking at each person in his family. His mother's name is Catherine Carter, his dad's name is Tim Carter and his baby sister's name is Alice and lastly I learnt that his name is Caleb Carter. His name sounds nice but he is far from that. I wonder if his family knows that he is a panty chaser.
I could feel as if someone was peering into my soul. I looked across from where I was sitting to see 'Panty Chaser' a name I decided to use for him staring right at me. I wanted to ask if there's a problem but I am not going to be the one to spoil this great lasagna Catherine made. Instead I reached for the glass of fruit juice and started drinking.

"Nessa will be in the same school as Caleb. She transferred from Florida. She has accomplished so much for a High School senior. She will be attending Alpena High School" My dad sounds really proud to say all these things about me. "Wow is that so? Caleb here is a senior too at that school. He can show Nessa around until she starts making friends." Tim responded patting his son's shoulder. "No. I think she will do great on her own. We actually met today. I passed her in the hall way at school." He straight up lied. I was about to call him out for laying but for some reason I just couldn't.
"Yes. That's a great idea Tim. Nessa needs all the help she can get. Besides the school is huge." I guess my dad chose to ignore Caleb's response for a reason. "Dad it's ok. I am a big girl. I can find my way around." I responded confidently staring at my first and only nemesis.
