Nikki's POV

I felt guilty. Fucking guilty. Because even though I was living in the house of a seriously hot jock, who also happened to be the most popular guy in school, I liked someone else. I can't say love, because I never really understood it.

Moreover, he was seriously sweet, and had those dazzling blue eyes that made girls swoon. But even then, I missed that pair if piercing greens, that were so intense, I felt as if they were staring straight into my soul. I missed that dimpled smile, and that brown floppy hair. I missed those hands, which had once taken my own in them, and made me feel so secure.

What kind of a mess was I really ?

I left my room and started to descend the stairs, planning on going for a walk. I heard voices outside, and I recognized both of them. One of them belonged to Kyle.

Kyle's POV

*flashback to half an hour ago*

I looked out of the window of my car to see rows and rows of pristine mansions pass by. I turned left, onto the next street, and then saw it. A white mansion, huge in size, and more pristine than any of the others he'd seen.

I parked my car in front of the gate and proceeded to walk the one kilometer that led to their 'driveway'. Ten minutes later, I reached a pearl coloured porch with double wooden doors.

I rang the doorbell and waited in anticipation. In the meantime, my thoughts wandered elsewhere. The time when me and Nikki had gone to a fair that was in town, as friends of course, and I'd won her one of those huge teddybears from one of the shooting stalls.

She'd never smiled bigger. It made my heart clench, and I couldn't believe that this had been just six months ago. It felt like a different life.

The door was opened by a blond haired boy who looked familiar. A look of recognition crossed his face, but it was quickly shadowed by an expressionless look.

'What do you want ?' he asked, his voice impassive.

'I need to talk to Nikki' I replied.

'She's not here, I told you before' he said, looking me up and down like I was a tramp he'd seen on the sidewalk.

'I need to talk to her' I continued, jamming my foot in the door as Josh attempted to slam it in my face.

'What the fuck man, just get lost. She's not here !' he said, definitely angry now.

'I saw her bag on the couch, don't lie to me Josh' I replied, glancing at the living room behind him.

'Kyle ?' a third voice asked, almost doubtful. The same voice that I'd been waiting to hear for the past two weeks. Josh had opened the door fully now, on Nikki's request, although he seemed a bit reluctant.

'Oh God Nikki, I'd been trying to talk to you ever since that day at the hospital. Are you okay ?' I asked, taking her hand in mine. But she shook it off, and I couldn't help but feel hurt.

'I'm fine Kyle. I think you should go now' she replied, and I could clearly see her discomfort at being sand-wiched in between two guys who could kill each other any minute now.

'Nikki, listen about that day-' I started, but was cut off.

'I'm sorry Kyle, I can't do this. Not anymore' she said, and I thought I saw a flash of hurt in her eyes, those beautiful hazels that had enchanted me to no end. But that flash disappeared just as quickly as it had appeared.

She walked off, and Josh closed the door, wearing an almost sympathetic expression.

I couldn't believe this. The girl I'd been going crazy about, had rejected me ? She didn't exactly say it, but it was kind of like rejecting. I ran my fingers through my hair and messed it up even more as I headed back to the car parked in front of the gate.

I really didn't know what I was gonna do. I thought about calling Cameron, my guy best friend, and decided to cool off a little. I had to, or else my head would explode. It had been a lot of time since I last went to a party...

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Nikki's POV

I couldn't believe what I had just done. I had indirectly rejected Kyle. The expression on his face had been of so much love, yet filled with sadness. It hurt to even think about those green eyes of his, so full of hurt.

I was doing this for Josh. I couldn't let him down after all that he'd done for me. It would be like kicking an injured puppy, and I may have been many things, but I certainly wasn't the type who would just use guys and then ditch them.

After I had simply walked away, I had left Josh's place to go for a walk. I needed time to think. I walked to the city park that was ten minutes away from Josh's house (okay, mansion) and sat down on a bench, watching kids play.

I missed those days, when I had nothing to worry about other than which crayon colour to pick. The time when waffles and pancakes for breakfast was the happiest day in my life. When the worst thing that could happen to me was if one of my dolls broke, or if my pet cat ran away.

I tugged my jacket tighter around me, savouring the harsh winds outside. As I felt the soft material of the oversized jacket, I realized that it was Kyle's jacket. His favourite one, which he had given to me the day I was at the hospital with him.

A tear escaped my eyes, and I wiped it away hesitantly. Crying was definitely not a trait of mine. I never cried. Ever. If I did, then it was serious. I couldn't believe how so much had changed since I had moved to East High. Tomorrow, I was gonna go to school for the first time since my mum's accident. And I was definitely not looking forward to it.

I got up and I headed back to the place Josh's mother insisted I call 'home'. The one thought on my mind was how was I going to face Kyle ever again after this ?.
