Screw it

Chapter 1

Erica's POV:

I got up early today feeling more shitty than I normally do. I have my alarm that woke me up at 5am for my first day in school, I wish I could throw it out the window, but my dad could literally kill me for it.

I hate school already, but the thought of being a new sophomore, and going back to my old town, and being back in that shit of a school makes me wanna kill myself before my father and his so-called 'new wife' can kill me. But I was happy about one thing, it was the after school soccer, i was going to the tryouts today right after school.I love soccer, it's my one and only love, it's the only time when my dad doesn't beat me, it's the only thing we agree on.

I quietly get ready for school and eat breakfast so I don't wake up my father and get a beating session right before school. I head out of the door at around 6:30 am, I walk to my school cause it's not so far from my house, I love the weather, it's been raining all night and now it's perfect. As I approach the schools territory I take a big deep breath and step inside the gates, as I take a step on the school's pavement i mutter under my breath to myself "welcome back to hell".

Walking into the school as a 'new student' is the most awkward feeling ever, I could feel everyone's gaze on me, but I walked to my locker like I couldn't see and hear people starting to whisper but I really couldn't care less. I put my stuff into my locker and only take out the necessities, seconds later I hear people, girls in particular, starting to squeal at the start of the hallway. I didn't know why, but soon enough the squeals got louder and closer and then I saw why. It was a guy, of course it's a guy, I was a so-called a 'hot guy', I didn't see what others say in him, yes he was masculine and somewhat good looking, but I bet he's a meanie. I watched him walk by and watch as every girl squeal in his presence, every girl except me, I roll my eyes at him and try to walk to class, he walks by and sees that I'm not exited about his presence. He attempts to walk up to me, and I notice so I go deeper into the crowd speeding up a bit, but unfortunately he catch's up to me and grabs my wrist.

"Hello there beautiful" he says grinning 

"Let go" I say nudging my wrist from his grip

"I see your new here, since you clearly don't know who I am, love" he says as he's about to say something else but I interpret him.

"I don't know who you are and I simply don't want to know" I say breaking from his grip and attempting to walk away again. But this man would just not get the hint that I simply don't care, and the next thing you know he's pinning me to the wall in the hallway and everyone is watching 

"Dude get a life" I say as I roll my eyes clearly annoying and not budged about the fact on that we're pretty close to each other, but I look into his eye and I feel I like already saw those exact eyes somewhere 

"Let me introduce myself, my name is Nickolas Archer " he says as he takes a step back and kisses the top of my hand and he says winking at me, and for some reason I feel like I have heard that name somewhere before 

"Ew, you're gross, you can't just walk around kissing random strangers hands" I say wiping my hand on his t-shirt " and no, I'm not going to introduce myself"

"Oh love, I could kiss more than your hands" he says smirking 

"Did anyone ever teach you how to shut the hell up" I say pushing my way through him and remembering what big of a crowd there was watching us and listening to our conversation, but I couldn't give two shits, I'm to pissed to care about what others think about this, the guy should learn some manners. But there's just something in his eyes and name that just didn't seem right with me.

I walk to class and take a seat in a free spot, I notice that everyone was looking at me, they all have probably seen or heard about what happened in the hallway, then I feel a tap on the shoulder, I flinch, and then turn around, I see a boy standing infront of me, I let him speak first cause he touched me first.

"Hi, I'm Vincent, but everyone calls me vince" he offers me to shake his hand, and I do, I look at him confused 

"I saw what you did out there, that was cool." He say's genuinely "I haven't seen anyone like that in years, but I do have to warn you, you signed up for a wild ride, princesse." A pause "I would know, I'm have been Nickolas's best friend for years now."

"So you're a jerk like him?" I ask 

"No, I'm the funny and hot sidekick" he laughs softly and i giggle, I think I might actually like Vincent more than Nickolas, maybe I might even get along with him

"Well it's nice to meet you Vincent." I say "oh please, call me vince, princess, I'm more used to it"

"So, everyone gives people nicknames here, huh?" I ask giggling a bit 

"Well, I never really got your name, so you know, a cute nickname it is" he chuckles 

"Well my name is Alexandra, but mostly people call me Alex, and I think I prefer it that way" I shrug 

"I love your name" he smiled "who named you? Your mom or dad?" 

"My stepmother did, it's not my original name, but that's a story for another time" I say looking down 

"Oh so there's going to be a next time, huh?" He asks jokingly "is this seat taken" he points at the seat behind me "nope, I don't recall anyone sitting here" I say lifting my head back up "great, well now it's mine" he says as he sits down, then I hear the bell ring, it's time for my class.
