"Fucked off!"
I heard someone yell as I get out to my car. I'm wearing a folded skinny jeans and a "DON'T MESS UP WITH ME" tee matched with a 3-inches stiletto. I glanced at the area where the shout came from and saw a guy scowling other students and marched angrily on the hallway.
I walked past those staring students without glancing at them. I directly went to the administration's office since I already know where it is located. The building is still the same since I left the place.
"I'm back Bradford High ", I murmured to myself.
****
I peeked in an office with a sign board that says "ACADEMIC HEAD", I saw my Aunt (yeah, she's the academic head of this school. Well I call her mom, though).
"Hey", I greeted.
"Hi Nicky! Welcome back!" When was the last time I heard that childhood name of mine? I don't remember.
"Thanks. Am I not late yet?"
"No, no, just in time. Here's your schedule for this year." Handing me a my schedule. "Come, I'll walk you to your homeroom."
I tailed her to my classroom. She then had a talk with the woman that seems to be my Homeroom teacher.
"Hi, my name's Anne. Come on, Dominique", my homeroom teacher said with a smile.
"Enjoy Nicky, have a great day ahead", she kissed me on the cheeks. "Thanks, mom! You too ", I replied.
I entered the room and Ms. Anne introduced me to the class.
"Hey, we have a new girl here. Her name's Dominique Figueroa."
"Hi." I smiled to everyone.
"How are you related to Ms Figueroa?" a blonde girl asked.
"She's my mom." I answered and get a confused look from my classmates. "I mean, she's my aunt. My Dad's sister, I call her mom, though."
"Because her biological mom left ---."
I was shocked, how someone from this class could know that. I looked to the direction where the speaker sits. I saw the guy I heard earlier in the hallway.
"Welcome back, Nicky." He said with a disgusting look.
I glared at him with a do-i-know-you look and noticed my classmates with confusion again. Then Ms Anne cut us off and started homeroom. I sat beside a girl.
"My name's Kim." She's a brunette and seems friendly.
Lunch. I sat on a table in the corner of the canteen with my headset on, I just finished my meal and I'm supposed to read "A stranger in the mirror by Sidney Sheldon" when someone slammed a book on the table in front of me.
"Hi." It was the same guy in the classroom.
"Do I know you?" I replied grumpily.
"Don't you remember me, Nicky?" I stared at him in confusion and studied him.
"Oh my god David! Is that you?" I exclaimed.
"Oh my God! Is this me? You dummy how could you forget me?" He said with a raised brow.
"You don't look like the David I used to know! Oh my God! You don't like a dummy anymore! You're now a sucker!" I grumpily yelled.
He was surprised to my compliment and left his mouth opened. I stand up and said "Close your mouth, sucker." And walked past through him with a grin in my lips.

Nicky's POV
i absolutely did not expect that David will be as handsome as he is right now. I almost dropped my jaw. good thing he was surprised with my comment.
i keep on walking not looking on my way. let's say i'm out of this world again. thinking nothing when ---
"Shit! Can't you look where you're going?", i said angrily to the guy i just bumped.
"i'm sorry. please also look where you're goin, okay? Gomen." said the guy with a poker face and walked past from him.
dang it! why are there so many clumsy people in the world?
i reached the back lobby of the building, sat on the bench and continued reading my book.
"OUCH!" I exclaimed and touching the part i was slapped by something hard -- a book. I looked up and saw David "What?" i asked angrily.
"I'm not a sucker Nicky nor a dummy! And how dare you not tell me that you're coming back?"
"So what? Are you my boyfriend? And you dont have the right to slap me with anything, my dad and mom haven't done that to me." i scowled.
"Sorry. It's just that we're bully partners way back grade school."
"your sorry is not enough, treat me." i smirked.
"shit! you haven't changed. you're still a pig. alright let's go." he grabbed my right hand and we went to the canteen.
