Forever, I Promise || A.I.

Chapter 3

I wake up to my alarm clock blasting in my ear. Ugh. Another day of school.

As I walk downstairs, I smell food. Good food. BACON.

I run into the kitchen and saw my mom leaning against the counter. She looked up and said, "Good morning, Sweetheart. I made you some breakfast." She smiled at me.

"Thanks mom." I walked over to grab a plate of pancakes and bacon. I ate it in five minutes then I ran upstairs to pick out what I'm going to wear today. I decided on short denim shorts, blue vans, a t-shirt that had the One Direction boys on it. I love them!

After my mom dropped me off at school, I tried to walk in as slow as possible. I really don't want to go to school today. 

When I got to my locker, someone came up behind me and tickled me. 

"What the fuck!" I pretty much screamed. I turned around and saw Ashton running down the hallway. God, that boy.

1st period is my art class. I don't know why I took it, but it's not that bad. Yesterday we just had to draw something that described us. I drew music notes because I can't last a day without listening to music. 

Today we have to draw our shoe. I don't understand this, but I go along with it anyway. I take off my shoe and start drawing. It didn't take me too long to finish. It was simple. At least I took this class instead of gym. I wouldn't last five minutes in that class.

Ok, so far, I made it through the day. Just had to go to 8th period. Science. Ugh. 

When I walk in the door, everyone is out of their seats again. I see Ashton by our desks with three other guys. I reconize only one cause he's in my grade. I forgot his name though.

I walk over and set down my stuff at my desk. 

"Hi Nikki! These are my friends MIchael, Calum, and Luke. Friends, this is Nikki!" Luke! that was his name!

"Hi guys. What's up?" They all just stared at me. The guy with the purple hair had his mouth wide open. "Um, Ashton. Why are they staring at me? It's creeping me out." Ashton just shrugged.

"She's mine!" Michael said.

"No! She's mine! I call her!" Calum said.

"Oh please! I get her because I'm in the same grade!" Luke said.

They all started to hit and fight each other. 

"Guys! Stop it! You're acting like four year olds!" They all stopped and glared at each other.

"Okay, class. Time to settle down. Take your seats please." Mr. Thomas said. The three guys sat down on the other side of the room. I wonder why Ashton sat all the way over here yesterday instead of by his friends.

About halfway through the class, Ashton leaned in and whispered in my ear, "I'm done with this shit. Does he actually think we care?" That made me laugh kind of loud. Some people around me started looking at me weird.

The bell rang and everyone flooded out of the room. Everyone but me and four other boys. 

"Hey, Nikki. Do you want to hang out with us at Ashton's house today?" Calum asked.

I looked at Ashton and he nodded. "You're welcome to come. We're going over right now if you want to ride with us?"

I nodded, "Yeah, I'll come with. You guys are lucky I didn't have anything else going on today." They laughed and rolled their eyes.

We all walked out to the parking lot. Ashton had this really cool car. It was bright red. You could spot it anywhere because it was just that bright. 

There were five seats so we'd be pretty squished together. I had to sit in the back inbetween Michael and Luke. To be honest, it wasn't that bad. It was...warm and cozy.

The whole drive there, Michael and Luke wouldn't stop poking me. Ashton and Calum were just laughing at them. I flipped Ashton off a couple of times because he wasn't telling them to stop. I was pretty pissed off.

We finally pulled into his driveway. "So, what now?" They all just turned to me and smiled in a very creepy way. "You're not going to rape me, are you?" I did a fake gasp. 

They all laughed and Calum said, "God no! We're not like that! We're just going to play video games. Do you like Fifa?"

Fifa? What the hell is that? "Um, no. I never heard of it." Everyone except Ashton had an offended look on their face.

"Ashton doesn't like it." Luke said. He rolled his eyes then he punched Ashon in the arm.

Ashton glared at him. Then he punched him in his arm even harder. It looked like it really hurt. 

"OW! What the hell man! I didn't even hit you that hard!" Ashton just shook his head and started laughing. 

We all walked inside and went downstairs where the video games were. My jaw dropped as soon as I saw it. The huge flat screen, the corner couch, biggest stereo I've ever seen, and a mini fridge. 

"You like it?" Ash asked. I nodded, still in awe. This was going to be a fun afternoon.
