The Bad Boys and I

CH 33: First day back

Rachel's Pov

I got up excited, I woke up extra early to get ready. I did my make up with some glossy bright pink lip gloss. I was so excited it took me a half an hour to find something to wear. I finally found a cute green shirt with an adorable short black and green skirt with my black ankle cut boots. I finish it off with pearls and waited for Damien to pick me up.

I went into the kitchen and ate eggs and bacon with orange juice.

Damien and I took 5 minutes to get there with his driving, I hoped out the car seeing alot of faces I recognized.

"I know you want to say hi, go I'll see you later" Damien said giving me a kiss before leaving me. I ran to my old friends from chess club, they all asked if I was joining back but I told them I'll think about it.

Before I got to class I was asked to join 4 groups. I felt great to be asked backed by my groups I felt missed and needed.

My first period ending and I made my way to my locker but I bumped into a girl. "Ouch" I said realizing she bumped into me not the other way around.

"I've seen you before" I said then I looked at the pink and blue cheerleaders uniform. "Oh yeah, you danced at the ball and the party"

"Yup and I'm here to tell you I'm becoming the best cheerleader and you aren't rolling your pom pom self here trying to get back your place. It's my place now, got it" she said before bumping me and walked away.

Oh the joys, I've been cheerleading too long for that to scare me but I don't think I want to get back into cheerleading, maybe debate or chess. I believe Harvard is looking for that yeah maybe cheerleading as extra.

I took out my AP Cal book and put back in my AP History book and made my way down the hall. My morning went lovely I sat in the library during lunch doing extra work to get up my grades because they went down after the incident.

"I brought you lunch" I looked up and saw Damien with a salad in his hand. "I have no time for lunch"

Damien took the AP Cal book from my hands and placed the salad there before smiling at me. "You took you SAT'S in freshman year got 1700 and did it back over because you thought it wasn't enough then turned around and got 2000 and still wanted to do it over but didn't. Your GPA has always been 4.5 it may have dropped to 3.0 when you were home but then you got it up to 4.0 I think you can have lunch babe."

"And for you're information babe, I went back and scored 2200 not 2000. Don't worry I'll be with you every step of the way to make sure you get 1600" I smiled.

I ate lunch and Damien watched me do my work for the rest of lunch. The rest of the day went by quite nice and I was asked to come to the chess match and cheerleading practice after school.

"Chess match is starting now. I'll come by after or come to your practice then go and see who wins"

"Nerd" the same girl from earlier whispered thinking no one would hear her.

"Marisa I dare you to say that again" Britney the captain said.

"No no let her say it, nerd, geek. Baby girl I've been a cheerleader since freshman year also been in chess debate and a tutor club and more. I've been hearing people call me nerd and geek for years and I've never taken it as an insult people like me who work hard end up going to Yale and Harvard and feel proud of themselves so I will let haters hate." I retorted stepping in her face

"Yeah tell her Rachel" a few girls said making me laugh before dragging me onto the field to watch. After 10 minutes of watching I thought they could do better. I found myself choreographing a dance in 1 hour then ran quickly to chess to see who won.

Our school won.

Ricky was still at school so I asked for a ride home. He drove slowly as if he didn't want to go home. It felt like we took an hour to get home.

I ran up the stairs and took a bath before jumping onto my bed taking out my AP Chemistry book. I fell asleep on the book before I even got it opened.

I woke up in the middle of the night and decided to go for some milk. But I heard someone in the kitchen crying. I stepped in slowly and saw my mother sitting with a cup of coffee in her hand.

I turned around to exit but she saw me.

"Rachel"

Crap. I said to myself.

"Hi, I jus came for milk then I will get out your hair" I  said running to the fridge. I debated between almond and soy before I took up the almond milk.

I took a glass out of the cupboard and poured my milk quickly before placing it back into the fridge.

"Sit let's talk!" She commanded.

I sighed before sitting at the other side of the island.

"You're father said he's not coming home til I work things out with you and Ricky"

I'm guessing dad would never come home.

"Would you like some coffee?" She asked pouring me some.

"I don't drink coffee"

"How about this tamarind juice, I brought back from England" she asked walking to the fridge.

"I'm allergic to tamarind" I said drinking my milk.

"I think you should talk to Crissy, asked her questions about your chikdren and then you can speak to Ricky and me" I told her as I made my exit from the kitchen.

"You aren't allergic to tamarind, you are allergic to pumpkin" Ricky said as I exited the kitchen.

I laughed at my brother before hitting him on his head.

"I know that but seeing her face made me feel like crying of laughter just now" I said laughing while dragging my brother up the stairs.

"And then you say I'm evil and not nice" he said pushing me into my room.

Ricky and I fell asleep in my room after talking about mom.
