Love, Hate, and the Things In-Between..

Off to a Bad Start..

-Nicole..

Ugh! Here we go again. It's always the same routine with my boyfriend Josh. Never fails.

"No. For the last time, I'm NOT cheating on you!" I said getting very annoyed. I was tired of going through the same stuff everyday. He always accuses me of cheating on him. If a boy even stands next to me, he's ready to jump to conclusions.

"Why should I believe you?" he asked. I really couldn't believe he was asking me this question, and did he really have to do this now, on the beach, where people were starting to watch!?

"Because. I would never do something like that to you. At the very beginning of our relationship, I made a promise to you that I'd stay faithful, and I'm sticking to that," I said. I'm really the one that should be asking HIM the questions. Josh was starting to get very distant lately but I just shrugged it off, thinking it wasn't really a big deal.

"I don't believe you Nicole. Not one bit. You're lying to me!" he said. What the hell!?

"I am NOT fucking lying to you Josh! Why would you even think something like that!?"

"Because I know the truth. I saw the pictures of you and him Nicole."

"What pictures Josh!?" More and more people were starting to be drawn to our argument. It was getting kind of embarrassing.

"Don't ask me what pictures! You know what pictures I'm talking about. You're just a dirty little whore. I knew I shouldn't have a agreed to this! I'm out!" he said bumping me as he went past. I grabbed for his arm to pull him back, and as he turned around he hit me. Smack dead in the face.

-Princeton

"Yo man! You cant catch!" yelled my friend Ray as I was going to get the frisbee he threw.

"Nah, you just can't throw," I said back. As I was going to get the frisbee, something else caught my attention. It was a couple. And they seemed to be having an argument.

"Yo Ray! Come over here," I said.

"What?" he asked. I pointed to the arguing couple.

"Gosh. I wonder who pissed in his cornflakes," he said.

"Should we stop it?" I asked.

"Why would we do that?" he asked.

"Because. That dude looks like he's getting very heated," I said. "What if he did something stupid?"

"We can't just barge up into somebody's argument. What would we say? Hey dude. You look mad. I think you should stop arguing?"

"No. Of course not," I said. "But-"

Just as I was saying that, he slapped her. Smack dead in the face. A couple of the people gasped and screamed. I don't know what came over me at that moment but I was making my way over to them.

"Prince! What the hell are you doing?!" I heard Ray shout but I just ignored him.

"Excuse me dude, but I don't think that was necessary for you to hit her like that." I said.

"Who the hell are you?" he asked.

"Doesn't matter."

"Look. I'm okay." the girl said getting up off the ground.

"Are you sure? He hit you pretty hard." I said glaring at the boy who now had his fists balled.

"Yes. I'm sure. Just go away," she said.

"Is this the nigga you been cheating on me with?" the dude said. What the hell was he talking about?

"Josh I don't even know him," the girl said.

"You know what? Fuck you Nicole," he said and walked away. The girl glared up at me.

"You see what you did?! You just cost me my relationship!" she yelled at me.

"How? I was just trying to help," I said. Does this girl like to get hit in the face or something? I just went out of my way to see if she was alright but I'm the bad guy.

"I don't need your help! Cant you see that!?"

"Well excuse me for thinking it's wrong for dudes to hit girls in the face," I said.

"Can you just... Go away? Please?" she said. Just then Ray came over to us.

"Prince, the guys are waiting for us back at Roc's place. You coming?" he asked.

I took another look at the girl who was now sitting in the sand with her face buried in her knees. "Nah. I think I might have to sit this one out. I'm gonna go on home," I said.

"Alright dude. Catch you later." we did our little hand shake thingy and went our separate ways. All the way home, my mind was focused on one thing. That girl. I don't know why, but something about her was just.. I dont know. It was really bugging me. The only way that would go away was if I found out about her, and I don't know how the hell I'm going to do that.
