Nini's pov

I wake up to the blaring sound of my alarm, great Monday morning just when you think you were finally free for the weekend, it ends. Ugh. I get up and shower and get dressed into my clothes. Leggings a simple light blue t-shirt and a cardigan. 

I grabbed an apple and my 'Salt lake Slices' uniform for after school and headed out the door for school. Me and my friends (kourtney, ashlyn, Gina, Maddox, big red, EJ, jet, seb and Carlos) all work at Slices and it's  kinda our hangout after school, even though we have to work. Sometimes I walk to school as it's only a ten minute walk, but I just couldn't be bothered so I asked the girls to pick me up. I stood outside waiting for around two mins when I see Kourtney's car pull up in my driveway. Kourtney was driving, Ashlyn in the front next to her and Gina in the back, I hop in next to Gina with my backpack over my shoulder.

"Hey guys" I say

"Neeners!" Ashlyn says

Gina and Kourtney all said hi as well and we were on our way to school.

"Ugh, I have math first thing" Gina complains as we step out the car. We laugh at her childish complaint

"That's rough" Ashlyn says while laughing

"I have English which isn't the worst but I feel so lazy on Mondays", Kourtney chimes in with

"What do you have Nini?" Gina asks as we approach the school 

"Chemistry I think"

"That's not horrible?"

"Why'd you say that as a question Ash?" Kourtney asks

"Dunno" Ashlyn replies with simply.

We get inside the warm high school. Luckily our lockers are right next to eachother so we don't have to separate. We see EJ, Big Red, Carlos and Seb already waiting but the lockers. "Hello ladies" EJ says as he kisses Gina's cheek. 

"Hey" Ashlyn says.

"What took you guys so long?" Big Red asks

"Gina was complaining about having math first thing on a Monday morning" I say while the boys start chuckling

"How is that my fault? It's a horrible start to the week" Gina replies while laughing.

"You're with me so we can just hold hands in the back of the class" EJ says

"Not sure if I want to say that's cute or if I wanna throw up" Carlos chimes in. We all start to laugh as we separate to head off to class. I'm with Seb for chemistry so we walk together and talk about our weekends. "That is the cutest thing ever! You had a date at that new restaurant!" I say, gushing about Seb's date with Carlos, 

"Yeah, it was pretty nice" Seb says innocently as he blushes slightly. "Speaking of which....." he starts

"What is it" I ask him as I see a smile creeping onto his face

"You should go out with someone"

"What! Where did that come from?"

"I don't know I was just thinking everyone has someone besides you!"

"No, Seb. For starters nobody likes me like that and I'm fine just the way I am" I say simply

"That's not true, you're perfect, Nini and are you sure this doesn't have anything to do with some curly haired boy?"

"Don't get me started" I reply harshly, my jaw clenching, knowing exactly who he's talking about

"Sorry Nini, but just don't be afraid of putting yourself out there" he says smiling as he pays my shoulder.

We sit down in chemistry and the day continues like normal.

Ricky's pov

I wake up to my alarm and roll out of bed. Today is the day I'm moving. Back to Salt Lake. Back to East High. Back to everyone. Back to...Nini. She probably won't be there, she could've moved schools. Everything will be fine...I hope...I think

I've been living with my mom in Chicago for the last 3 years and her new (well not new anymore) boyfriend Todd. He's a good guy but I don't think I'll ever get over the fact that my parents are separated or that my moms moved on completely. Truth is I wasn't really that happy in Chicago. I mean the place is great, but Salt Lake's my home. I also haven't seen my dad in forever, sure I'd call him every week but I haven't seen him face to face. I felt like an outcast and it was finally time to leave this place.

I put on my three striped hoodie, black jeans and vans. Brush my teeth, spray cologne and try to tame my hair. Mom was dropping me off to the airport before she left for work.

"You sure you have everything" mom asked as drove into the airport car park

"Yes, mom I'm sure" I said quietly chuckling over how many times she's asked that

She hugged me tight and said "have fun, Ricky. I love you"

"Love you too, mom"

We exchanged our farewells as I headed towards the airport hauling my suitcase. I checked in okay and sat on the plane. I was next to a window and an old couple, who were really sweet. I arrived in Salt lake memories flooding back to me.

Dad came to pick me up and I was so happy when I saw his face

"Dad!" I yelled sprinting down wheeling my bag along, not caring the looks that people gave

"Ricky!" He called back as he bear hugged me

We were smiling giddy the whole ride home. When we arrived I was exhausted. I asked dad if I could go to bed and he said sure so I went upstairs to my childhood room. There were picture frames of me and the boys when we were only 13. All the pictures of me on my birthday each year. But everywhere you looked you would see a picture of me and here. What if I get to see her tomorrow?
