Part 5 - Shower

Hey guys. In this chapter there has been a 3 month time skip. Sorry, I couldn't be bothered to write the parts in between! Nothing important really happened over the past 3 months, only some boring classes. Hope you guys are enjoying this!

I've been at college for 3 months now. I have gotten used to the college now, like I know where everything is and I know the area in which the college is. I've gotten closer to the guys and I pretty know everyone's secrets. I've been speaking to Jack some more. We've gotten really close, and I really enjoy his company. I've also gotten really close with Mark, and we've been hanging with each other a lot after classes. We mostly share the same classes, like science, English and media studies, as well as gaming. Ken got a girlfriend, Mary. She's really cool. They met at the café where Yami works and they just really liked each other. I kinda shipped them when they first started talking. Sshhh! Its just a thing I do with my friends. For example, I ship Mark with this girl who keeps following around college. Its actually really hilarious. She follows him to the café with her small group of friends and she follows him back to his dorm room. Now I think about it, it is pretty creepy. I don't even know who she is but I know she's in the wrestling team... I don't know how I know that but hey ho.

I walked quickly to the showers on F corridor, hopefully to avoid anyone. I really didn't like using the showers at this college, as there was only a curtain splitting the showers. I once had to shower next to some girl who sang really badly. It was so awkward when she asked to borrow some shampoo. Oh God. The image is literally stuck onto my eyeballs. I entered the shower room, and no one was in there. Good! I usually come really late at night to get the privacy I need. I entered a cubicle and took off my clothes. I hung them on the outside ramp neatly and once again entered the cubicle. I turned on the shower, and the water sprayed fast. It was freezing so I gave out a quiet scream. I hate it when the water starts off cold. I dipped my hair under the shower head when it warmed up and washed my hair. Suddenly, I heard the door open. Oh crap! Someone else was in here? I've got to leave and quick!

"Psst! Psst!" Whispered a voice from the far end of the shower room. I didn't dare look out to see who it was. It could have been some pervert. You never know!

"Nicki? Nicki? Are you in here?" Whispered the voice again. Only now I realise who it was.

"Yeah its me. What do you want" I asked, as quietly as I could. I didn't wasn't anyone outside the shower room to hear this conversation. I saw the shadow of the person outside of the shower curtain and I froze. I then heard the door open again. Mark flung open the shower curtain and entered the cubicle. The hell? He quickly closed the curtain and I quickly grabbed the shower curtain behind me to cover up my body. Mark then turned around and his eyes trailed down the shower curtain. I slapped him on the arm, quite hard and he just gave me a smirk.

"What the hell are you doing in here Mark? Get out! I'm trying to have a shower here!" I whispered, trying to find out what was going on. He turned off the shower so the shower room was silent. I could hear loud footsteps on the other side of the shower room. Who was that?

"I'm.. Err... Nothing is happened. I'm just ... Hiding" he whispered nervously. I could hear the footsteps getting closer to the cubicle Mark and I were in.

"Mark, who is that?" I whispered, slightly scared, and trembling as I was cold and wet. He looked at me with a concerned face. Is it him? Again?

"Its Tate" he whispered quietly, and slightly ashamed. Tate had been beating up Mark for being a 'Nerd'. I know its ridiculous right? But Tate has been punching Mark and Mark couldn't take it any longer, so the other day he confronted him. It didn't end up well for Mark, and now Tate is constantly breathing down his neck, just waiting to pounce on him at the right moment. Mark can hardly sleep anymore. He's just gotten so paranoid. Even though Jack is his roommate, he still feels alone.

"Its okay. I'll sort this" I whispered with a determined face. I wasn't going to get Mark caught so I had to lead Tate away somehow, or at least persuade him that I'm the only one in there. I pushed Mark to the back of the cubicle and grabbed my towel from outside the shower curtain. I wrapped it around myself, and walked out of the cubicle, bumping into Tate on the way.

"Oh sorry, I didn't see you there" I said innocently. He trailed his eyes down my body and I didn't like it. It made me feel really awkward.

"Have you seen anyone come through here?" He said staring at my feet, with a distressed look on his face.

"No. Sorry, I haven't." I lied as convincingly as I could. He seemed to buy it, as he nodded his head and headed for the door. He looked really tense. Did Mark do something to him after the incident? When Tate left the shower room I re-entered the cubicle. I stood there giving Mark a look to tell me what was going on. He sighed and just shook his head.

"There's no point explaining. I'm just gonna go back. Thanks Nicki." He said quietly walking out of the cubicle. He gave me a small smile on the way out of the cubicle and I was once again left alone. I sighed and went back to washing my hair, thinking about the latest turn of events. Maybe I don't know everything about Mark. I'll see if he will speak to me tomorrow.
