My name is Nicolette, but everyone calls me Nikki. I'm 17 years old. I live in Ontario, Canada and go to McGill University. No this isn't one of those stories that tell you how to get through College and at the end tell you to just be yourself. This...this is my story. And so it begins...

"GET UP!!!!!!!!! WE'LL BE LATE!"

"I'm up geez! Do you have to do that all the time?"

"As a matter of fact yes I do. It's part of my morning routine to hit you in the face and wake you up 3 hours early."

My roommate Natalie has always woken me up like this every morning ever since we were late the first time...well...she was late.

"Ugh! Fine! But you owe me one."

I got up, took a shower, ate breakfast and just did my usual morning routine. As I started to put on my makeup...let's just say I'd rather get hit in the face again, but harder to probably knock me out.

Natalie's boyfriend, Harry and his friends came through the door. I like Harry, a lot actually, I've had a crush on him since forever, but of course, being the amazingly beautiful girl Natalie is, she snatched him up first. Harry's group of friends are a relatively nice bunch, every one of them except...Alex. Alex was my childhood best friend...WAS. As we grew up, I'll admit we started to drift apart, but all I knew one day I came home and saw Alex on top of my brother while my brother's nose and mouth dripped blood. I started to argue with him and all he said was that I don't know what happened and should be mad at my brother. I don't really remember what happen after, all I know was that I was on the ground holding my head "Al...e...x..."

"Nicolette? Nicolette? NIKKI!!!!"

"Oh right. Sorry I was just lost in thought."

"You've been doing that a lot lately. Are you sure you're ok?"

"Yh I'm fine."

I glance at Alex who is looking at me intensely. He looks almost concerned. I highly doubt. He's probably plotting something against me, or maybe he's not even looking at me but behind me or...

"NIKKI!!!"

"Sorry."

"Ready to go?" Harry asked

"Let's go or we'll be late." Natalie rushes.

We grab our phones and purse and started to walk out the door Harry holding Natalie's and everyone else walked behind them. As I passed them, Harry put his hand on the small of my back. Wierd.

"Nikki, promise not to get mad at me?"Natalie asked

"Why would I be mad?"

"You have sit next to Alex."

"WHAT!?! No! There is no way I'm sitting next to him."

"Oh come on please? For me? What's the worst that could happen?"

"You are lucky you're my best friend or else i wouldn't have been doing this."

"Awesome! But you and Alex used to be so close, I mean come on the guy was your best friend. What happen?"

No one ever knew what happen beside my brother, me and Alex and that's all who needed to know.

"We drifted apart. Far far far apart."
