Two Personalities

Chapter 1

I rushed to class I had never ever been late before! CJ was always getting in my way I mean really? I hate him so much right now, the sound of the bell still ringing in my ears. My English class was two steps when, speak of the devil, out pops my worst nightmare. "Hey Nikki, wanna skip and go to the movies?" He asked cooly "No" I replied in a low growl "Let me in! You know I can't be this late!!" I glared at him. CJ smiled "How bout' a kiss on the cheek first?" "How bout' a punch in the gut?" I hissed "Let me through!" CJ sighed "This isn't over" he walked away. I ran into the classroom and sat down right as my teacher called my name for attendance "Here" I said and raised my hand. She was old, about 80 I think, she couldn't see well but her hearing was spot on. Lucky for me she didn't have her glasses on so she didn't know I was late. But everyone else did.

I sat in silence and watched Ms. Alexander to go through a PowerPoint on writing techniques. I started to drift to sleep when the sharp end of a pencil jabbed me in the side I looked over at Kayla who had a note I'm her hand. I nodded and she gave it to me. I opened it and read it in my mind 'Hey Nikki! Why were you late? Was it CJ?' I scoffed and took my pencil to write down 'Yeah he's so annoying' I handed it back. She read it and wrote something then gave it back 'What will you do when he asks you out? You know he will.. And he is pretty cute! :)'

I was disgusted at that 'OMG. What is wrong with you!? Maybe you should date him' I shook my head and slipped in to Kayla. Our note conversation went on till' I ripped it up when she said if I'd rather marry Kyle or CJ.

"Come on Nikki! CJ is cute, funny, a bad boy, he would treat you well!" Kayla pushed me playfully. I glared at her "Um. No." Kayla laughed "I'll meet you at your locker after this last class. See ya!" she walked into the gym. I sighed and speed walked to art because it was so far away from the gym and you already know I can't ever be late. I walked in and sat down next to Kyle, of course I was assigned to sit next to him. He looked at me and I glared back "Hey" he said in that stupid snobby voice, wearing those snobby clothes, snobby shoes, just full out rich idiot. I hated him with all my heart. He always thought he was better than everyone else. Popular kids. Can't live with em'.

After art and after all of Kyle's ridiculous insults he followed me "Het Nikki if you want to be alone maybe try to look decent for once!" He snickered. I smiled at him "Kyle I try to be nice but your really starting to piss me off! So go away" I pushed him away and kept walking. I made it to my locker and Kayla was there with CJ. He was talking to some of his hockey friends so I ran over and whispered to Kayla "Why is he here?!" "Because I told him to. I want you to stop being so mean!" She whispered back. I growled and opened my locker got my stuff and as soon as I closed it CJ was looking back to our direction "Hey Nikki I wanted to ask you if you wanted to come to my hockey practice tonight..? I'll pick you up at 6?" He said. I had put my earbuds in and I couldn't really hear him "Um, yeah okay.. See ya" I said and turned away walking with Kayla.

Kayla was skipping happily "What's up with you?" I asked. Kayla looked at me "You just said yes to go to CJ's hockey practice at 6 tonight!" I stopped "What?!" My eyes widened. "I think your earbuds were in but accepted so you better go!" We exited the school and said bye then I started over to the pathway where I could just walk through thinking 'What if he asks me out there..? What will his team think? Why am I excited? Am I happy? No.

I need to calm down.' I sighed and walked into my house where my Saint Bernard, Sam, attacked me. I laughed and pet him "Good boy! Who wants to go get a puppy treat?" I ran to the cabinet and grabbed a treat then gave it to him. Then I went to my room to do my homework.
