Pure Hearts

Chapter 1

"Did you hear about Carter Jameson" My friend, Maci, said.

Maci and I met last year, when she first came to Riverdale High, she shadowed me, and that's how we became friends. Nothing big and grand, just simple, the opposite of Maci. She was outgoing, and only wanted to explore new things. She wanted more than this small town could give her. She is petite like me, small waist, we both have nice butts and boobs. I'll admit, we attract a lot of boys, I don't like the attention, she does. She has pin - straight blonde hair, and blue eyes. I had wavy, black, hair and bright blue eyes. She had a crush on my bestfriend, Nate.

Nate and I were friends since we were five years old, we went through a lot together, my dad's death, his parents getting divorced, the ugly teenage years. Nate never had a bad stage, he was always attractive. Although, I had acne and braces up until last year. Nate was tall, much taller than me. He is 6'0 while I'm only 5'3. He has light brunette hair, and green eyes. He has a lot of muscle, an effect of being on the football team.

Our two other friends, were Brandon and Bella. They are twins, both have strawberry blonde hair and brown eyes. They are both tall for their genders, Brandon being 5'11 and Bella being 5'6. The big difference was that Bella never stood up for herself, which made Brandon really protective over her. Mostly because, Brandon and Bella's stepdad beat them until they were 13 years old. When their stepdad went after Bella, Brandon beat the shit out of him. He was in the hospital for three days, and never came back. Their mom, left them when they were young. They love with their grandma.

"Yeah, He is back in school" Bella said.

"Are you serious?" I asked.

"Yes, I wouldn't lie about that" Bella said.

Carter Jameson, stereotypical jock. He left school two years ago, without any warning. I hated him, he walked through the halls and expected everyone to move out of the way for him. He was attractive, really attractive. But, I hated his personality, it sucked. He didn't care about girls, he treated them like toys, and they let him. They thought they would be the one to change him, to be the one to stay. I don't think that's possible for Carter.

Nate hated him too, I noticed Nate get uneasy when we talked about Carter.

"Wanna skip?" I asked Nate, he looked at me with his eyebrows furrowed, I usually didn't skip school. But, I can tell Nate didn't want to be here.

He nodded "lets go" I said.

He grabbed my bag and we said goodbye to our friends, on the way out. I saw him, Carter. He stared at Nate and than turned his eyes to me, staring at me.

"Can you not stare a hole through my head?" I asked Carter.

Nobody ever said anything to Carter, but I didn't care. I hated him and he was going to know I did.

And, staring pissed me off.

"What?" He asked, his expression turned mad. He walked closer to me and so did Nate.

"I don't appreciate you staring at me" I repeated.

"I will stare at you if I want" He said.

"No, you won't." I said.

"Listen to me-" he said, but before he could finish I cut him off.

"No, you listen to me, you just got back after disappearing for two years. And really, nobody cared you left. The only reason you are popular is because everyone is scared of you" He just listened to me. "When you left, a weight was lifted off of our shoulders. Because every sane person in this school can't stand you. So, please, instead of staring at me, when you walk by smile and wave, so I don't have the urge to punch you in the face every time I see you." I smiled and turned around. I walked away with confidence.

I was waiting for Carter to say something but he didn't. Nate caught up to me. "damn, tay. Confidence looks hot on you" He said.

I laughed "can we just go" I teasingly nudged his shoulder.

"Yea, lets go" He said.

We ran to his car, and I slid in to the passenger seat of his car. "I am transferring schools" I said.

Nate looked at me "That's probably a good idea" He laughed.

"He is gonna kill me" I said.

"He isn't gonna come near you, If he were smart he would stay away from you. You even scared me" he said.

I laughed and looked down at my legs.

We drove around and talked, we played our favorite songs and sang to them.

It got dark fast and we thought it was time to head home, it took a couple hours to get back home.

I fell asleep and woke up to Nate carrying me inside. I nuzzled my head in to his neck and he felt warm.

He brought me inside and set me on the couch. He said hi to my mom and she told him to put me in my room.

He picked me back up and carried me upstairs. He lied me on my bed and took my shoes. He tucked me in to bed, and said goodbye and left.

I woke up, sometime in the middle of the night and looked at my phone. I got a message from Nate.

"Hi, I didn't want to wake you when we got home. But, I hope you have a goodnight, see tomorrow!"

I smiled at his text and than texted him back.

"Thank you! I hope you have a goodnight, see you tomorrow!"

I put down my phone and fell back asleep.
