Monday mornings.
Ugh.
The worst combination on the planet.

Add that first day of last year at school and you get the worst worst day on the planet.

I decided to wear denim skirt with simple white t-shirt paired with black Dr. Martens boots.
God I admire them.

I was about to put on earrings when my phone started ringing. It was Jessica, my best friend.

'Hey Char'
'Hey, what's up?'
'Oh well, I was just calling to tell ya that I wanted to hit Marley's before we go to school'

Marley's was best coffee shop in our city.

'Yeah, sure. I'll be in front of your house in five'
'See ya'

Jessica and I had a tradition to always go to school together on first day. And since her car was still being repaired we had to go to school with mine.

'Good morning Charlie,'  I was greeted with my dad as soon as I went downstairs into the kitchen.

Before he and my mum found out that I was a girl my dad wanted to name his child Charlie. When I turned out to be a girl, my dad decided to give me Charlie as a nickname.

'Morning dad,' I say as I kiss him on the cheek.

We ate our breakfast with little conversation here and there.

While I was driving my mum called and wished me luck on my first day. She didn't know I was driving while having a conversation with her, other wise she would definitely freak out.

'Charlotte can you believe it? We are graduating this year,' Jessica says as soon as she enters my car 'Fuck, when did we grow up so fast? I mean I still remember first day of school'

She knew exactly what type of memories brought up first day and year of school.

'Please can you stop always bringing him up?'

'You have to admit that it's pure irony that you guys are enemies, but at the same time you two just can't survive without one another,' she says with sarcasm in her voice.

'Please I can survive without King just fine,' I tell her with a scoff.

'Yeah, yeah sure. King and Quinn can't survive without each other dumb-ass.'

'Quit it already Benson,' I say with rolling my eyes.

Once we reached Marley's we ordered our regulars and waited.

'Aw, isn't it my favorite person,' A voice says behind me and Jess. And I would never mistake that voice.

'King,' I say as I roll my eyes.

'How was your summer Quinn?' He says with his famous cocky smirk.

'Well, it was good, but I definitely didn't miss your ugly face" I say in duh tone and heard his jocks snicker from his back.

'You just broke my heart Quinn,' he says while placing his hands on his heart.

'Don't act like it wasn't already broken, King'

Something changed in his eyes when I said it.

Dang it, I think I went too far.

He bents down a bit so his mouth was near my ear. I could feel his breathing. "Think twice before you say something like that to me. You know I can't keep your little secret forever, Quinn." he says in my ear.

"Fuck you, King" I said with frustration.

"With pleasure darling, with pleasure" he says with a low chuckle and lefts Marley's with his jocks.

"Well, that was intense"

"Shut up Jess"

Dylan was standing in front of mine and Jessica's lockers while I was putting some textbooks in it.

Dylan was our friend since he transferred in our school in fifth grade.
With his blond hair and grey eyes he managed to have girls attention in our school.

Not that me and Jess were lacking attention. I was volleyball team's captain and Jess was in my team as well, she is an excellent player. We both were pretty tall, too. And that made my mum, who has model agency, beg us to participate with her other models in campaigns. We did it sometimes and had a lot of fun on set, but we haven't done it since our schoolwork took most of our times.

When I finished putting my textbooks in the locker someone said behind me

'Hey there Charlotte'

At first I thought it was King, since his locker was in front of mine, but when I turned around I was greeted with one and only Cedric Brooks.

Let me tell you a little about him.

He is a jerk.
He is a player.
He is one and only human being on this planet who hates Ace King more than I do. Like literally, they are enemies.
Jessica is sure Cedric likes me since seventh grade.
And did I already mention that he is a jerk?

'Hey Cedric

'How are you handling first day?

'Ask me that after three more lessons,' I say with a sigh and Cedric chuckles.

'Brooks' deep voice interrupts our conversation.

Guess who it is?

'King'

Yup, you've got that right.

'What are doing here?'

'What am I not allowed to be here? Am on your territory or something?' says Cedric with a smirk.

'You could say that,' King's eyes looked at me for a second at then looked at Cedric again, 'You see Brooks, someone might consider that you are acting like a stalker,' said King and took a step close to Cedric. 

"Really? Who?" asks Cedric with sarcastic smirk.

"Me"

'And tell me why is that King?' for a moment King's eyes lands on me and then he looks at Cedric with knowing smile, 'You really want me to tell you the reason in front of everyone?' And his eyes meet mine again.

Dude, what's going on here?

Cedric's eyes land on me and suddenly his eyes goes wide as if he realizes something.
He looks back at King and says "You know nothing."

"You want to make sure of that Brooks?" King says with his arrogant smirk.

"We aren't done yet King!" Cedric says and storms off.
