My summer at Honolulu was spent surfing, gaining an awesome tan, and flirting with some girls I met at the smoothie bar. I even went out with some of them, but nothing serious. I was still texting and emailing one of them, Nickie Jae.

NickieJ123: So, when does your school year start? 

QuickFingers3000: Oh, in two days. I still gotta cram for my A.P. Algebra test at the start of the year. >:( 

NickieJ123: Wow, aren't you the smart one? :P Remind me why you put your chat name as QuickFingers3000? 

QuickFingers3000: My friends were with me while I was playing piano and they saw my fast and smooth playing and said I had "Quick fingers". I just thought of that memory while I was making an account. 

NickieJ123: I guess you should send me a vid of your awesome skills then! Haha... David Cheng what CAN'T you do? 

QuickFingers3000: I can't fail.  

NickieJ123: I didn't mean it like that! 

QuickFingers3000: Yeah, but I couldn't think of one on an empty stomach. Oh, speaking of which, I gotta head to dinner. Seeya Nickie!  

NickieJ123: Wait! I didn't chat with you to leave without doing me a favor. You go to Caddy High, right? 

QuickFingers3000: Yeah, why? 

Nickie123: Well I have a niece going there. Her name's Yuki Kurozaki. Do you mind saying "hi" to her for me? Tell her it's from Auntie Nini.

I remembered Nickie was already 20.

QuickFingers3000: Yeah, sure, but what does she look like? 

NickieJ123: Like me, except 4 inches shorter and just darn adorable. You won't miss her. But I haven't seen her in a few years, and she was still shy back then and played a lot of board games. 

QuickFingers3000: How long ago was this? 

NickieJ123: When she was thirteen. She should be in your grade by now. So about sixteen. So don't scare her! She's shy and gets scared very easily. Or at least that's how I remember her. 

QuickFingers3000: Alright, I'll say hi to Yuki for you. Talk to you later! 

NickieJ123: Yup! Seeya! :D

Turns out that Yuki Kurozaki was going to create a big mess at Caddy High that no one would believe.

Hi! It's vampirejuli! This is my first time uploading and I'm really scared about what you guys think! If anyone happened to stumble upon this story, please read my profile info before commenting or anything like that. It has my rules on commenting and such(plus more!). But since not many of you have the patience to click on my name and read, I'll just post them here:

If you like, like, comment, favorite, do something crazy! If you don't like it, comment with CONSTRUCTIVE criticism. I hate the haters. I was once one and have now changed and just put positive comments. Please be nice and no swearing! I would not like to take the comment away or fix it up (which you would respond to with another nasty comment.) I like being fair and respectful to my fellow Wattpad-ers (doesn't make sense, but I thought the people who went on here needed a name!) Thanks! Now you may feel free to criticize me! I love it when I can get helpful comments so I may improve my writing skills! I'm already starting to write Chapter One of this story. Hope you guys think that this story is worthwhile enough to read more! Seeya then!

P.S. The pic to the right is Nickie Jae played by the talented Alexandra Stan. Don't worry! I'll get a David Cheng out there sometime!
