The bell rings for school to be out. I couldn't leave school because I had no car. School is hell for me and can't wait till college. I wait for my mom to pick me up.
Nic: "hey you ok?"
I turn around to face him
K: "yea I guess?"
Nic: "I heard what happened in the morning. Is it true?"
K: "of what?"
Nic: "that G's dad abused him"
K: "I thought you knew"
Nic: "no? I always thought that his dad was out of the pictures"
K: "oh!?"
Nic: "how did you know?"
K: "when we were ten, Gray was in his room crying. I went in and seen he had bruises all over. He was hurt, and alone. He was curled up in a ball like he was almost trying to hide from him. I hugged him, and telling him it's going to be ok. He hugged me back and he said never leave me."
Nic: "he's still the same guy"
K: "I don't know if he is"
Nic: "what do you mean?"I cry and look away in embarrassment
Nic: "Kacie?"
I look at him
Nic: "did he give you that"
He points to my black eye
I nod my head slowly. He hugs me.
Nic: "everything will be alright"
K: "just do me a favor?"He looks at me
K: "don't kill him"
We both laugh
Nic: "even with that black eye you're still pretty"
He just called me pretty?
He looks into my eyes. He gets closer to me. We're inches away. I can feel his warmth of his lips close mine.
K: "kiss me"
And then he did. Wow never knew I would kiss my ex-crush. It feels so right with him. This feels right.
We break the kiss.
Nic: "I really like you"
He says out of breath
K: "I like you too"
We start laughing
My phone buzzes in my back pocket. I look to who it was, and seen who it was my mom.
K: "I got to go"
I say walking as fast as I could
K: "call me?"
Nic: "yea. I'll definitely will"We both laugh
I walk to my moms car
K: "hey mom!"
I say with a smile on my face
Mom: "someone's happy"
K: "I am"I say while blushing
Mom: "so glad you had a great day at school"
K: "wasn't all great. Mostly out of school, but did really make my day though"I say still smiling
Mom: "as long as your happy"
She holds my hand
Mom: "that's all that matters"
She looks at the road
Wow I had a hellish day to a good ass day were I might get a new boyfriend. Wait new?
I think of nick the whole car ride home.
Mom: "oh we need to get the mail"
She drives to the mail box, and gives me the keys. I get out of the door, and put the key into the slot. I open it to see mail in there like usual. I grab the mail and close the door. I go in the car, and we start to drive home witch was five steps of walking distance to my house.
We get out of the car and into the house. I look at the mail to see any letters for me, and there was one called UCLA on it. My eyes widen. I quickly go upstairs to my room. I close the door, and sit on my bed. I look at the letter that's in my hand. I just stare at it. Should I open it? Should I let someone else do it? I go into my train of thoughts when I hear a loud banging on the window. I look to who it is, and seen gray at the window. I let him in to see what he has to say.
