Chapter five – on the court and you've finally got me...

Nicole's POV

A couple of days passed by since the party. I'd actually had a good time hanging out with Lucas. After my little dirty dancing incident I had to convince him I was only doing it as a joke. After that we'd completely gotten wasted together and after midnight I didn't remember much.

I did wake up at Martha's though but we did not attend school. Thank god, my headache had been so friggin bad. I stayed at Martha's that day, all day. When I got home mum asked me how it was and all that blah blah. I didn't tell her much.

So here I was in history third period on a Friday. Best day of the week, because it was the last day of school. Mr. Mane was rambling as usual and I was texting Martha. She had a lot to say about Kyle. She hadn't shut up about him and he finally grew some balls and asked her out. They were going to the movies tonight and Martha was fretting over what to wear. I rolled my eyes and shoved my phone back in my pocket.

'what does Martha want?' Lucas asked looking up from his book. I yawn stretching a little.

'she's over excited, plus how'd you know it was Martha and not June?'

'because June's phone fell in the toilet yesterday, remember? Gee you're a bad friend for not remembering that'

'I remembered' I said trying to remember when June had told me. I couldn't remember, dang it. I was a bad friend.

'yeah right, I can see you think about it. Don't think too hard'

'asshole' I shoved him and he laughed. Mr. Mane coughed telling us to shush so we dropped our voices to a whisper.

'so are you coming out tonight?'

'for what?' I asked him frowning. I looked up from my book to glance at him once. He was head down writing the stuff on the board into his book.

'celebrating the basketball team'

'how do you know you'll get on the team?'

'skinny legs, I always get on the team'

'you can't call me skinny legs today, I'm not wearing jeans'

'okay fine then, virgin pants'

'lu-'

'hey you're wearing pants' he defended and I rolled my eyes. Yeah I was. I was wearing denim shorts and a white tank top with a black blaze that was short and chic.

'okay point taken but stop calling me a virgin'

'why? Did you lose your V card?'

'no, it's annoying'

'damn you had me going. I want the honours'

'unlikely lulu'

'quit it with the name'

'we're on even ground now, lulu'

'whatever, virgin pants'

I roll my eyes and he laughs looking at me. I look back down at my book and finish off the last sentence.

'so are you coming?' he asked.

'don't you have to be on the basketball team?'

'nah you can be my plus one'

'plus one?'

'yeah you know. The invitations that say you're invited bring along a friend'

'oh right'
