I heard someone sit down beside me and looked up. It was Michael."Fuck no you can't sit here," I said glaring at him. "Okay well 1) I'll do what I want, and 2) this is the only seat left, babe so deal with it." "Fuck you and don't call me that," I said rolling my eyes looking at the front of the room. "You wish you could" he whispered. I shot a glare at him and my voice excelerated in volume,"Leave me the fuck alone or I will gut you alive right here, right now." He smirked at me," Sorry princess. If you have a problem with me sitting here, maybe you should be the one to leave." I looked around the room and noticed he was right, there was only one seat left and it was next to some geek I didn't know. "I think I'll stay here." "I knew you wanted me," he said winking. This is gonna be a long year I thought to myself. I just rolled my eyes and started listening to my teachers endless lectures on how we should 'act our age'.

"Beeeep!"

Oh thank the lord now I can get out of this dreadful class. I didn't waste any time I hauled ass out of the room and practically ran to my next class. Thank god Michael's not in my next class. I kinda just daydreamed through the whole 2nd period. Only 4 and a half hours left and I get to get out of this hell hole. As I walked to 3rd period I spotted my friend Kallista. "Hey Kali!" I half yelled walking up to her. "Oh hey" she sighed and looked at the ground. I slung my arm around her shoulders and asked,"What's wrong?" I did my infamous puppy dog face like I used to do as a kid. She looked up at me and just ran off. I didn't bother going after her because when she runs off she just wants to be alone and think about things. I slowly slunk to my locker grabbed my books and headed to 3rd period. Kali was supposed to be in my 3rd period but she wasn't there. I entered the room and took a seat next to my friend Madeline. She looked different in a way. She still had her fierce look and rocking pink hair but she seemed different. "Hey Madeline." She stared at me for a second so I added,"Can I sit here?" She laughed and said,"We're not even friends why would I let you sit here? Besides I have real friends that want to sit here, that I would much rather sit with." Don't do it. Don't do it. You know what screw it. I flicked her off and sat down at the back of the class. I kept trying to send her a mental message that said 'fuck you bitch!' I don't know if she ever received that message or not. I didn't even realize that class ended until my teacher mrs.page came over and said,"Are you okay? Class is over now you can go to 4th period now." I looked at her in shock at first and then replied," Oh, I'm fine. I'm sorry I was just lost in thought." She paused and then said,"Oh okay well, have a good day then." I snatched my books and ran to 4th period. It was like a race I had only two minutes to get there before the tardy bell rings and I am not going to be tardy. I slipped into class and went to the closest seat I set my eyes on. My luck was cut short when my eyes landed on an empty seat next to the most idiotic person, Michael. I looked up at the ceiling and muttered,"What did I do to deserve this kind of torture?" When i turned my attention away from the ceiling and back at Michael, he was smiling. I slammed my stuff dramatically on the desk and Michael said,"I kept the seat warm for you princess." That's when I lost it. I slapped him across the face. It made a loud 'thwack' and it left a red mark on his face in the shape of my hand. When he recovered from the slap he smirked and said,"Calum chose a fiesty one didn't he?" I raised my hand up again and said,"If you say that again it's going to hurt much more than a slap." He raised his hands, surrendering. I just rolled my eyes and sat down. Class went by pretty fast as I was lost in thought again. I don't know what's wrong with me today. I went to my locker to put my books up to go to lunch. Finally something I'll enjoy. I got in line and Michael walked up to me and grabbed a tray. I glared at him for getting in the same line as me there's 3 other lines and he knows I'm pissed off at him. "Calm down princess, I didn't realize I would make you this excited for me to be next to you," he said winking at me. I just turned around and ignored him I got my food and left the line and went to sit with Calum. One of his football friends was sitting next to him so I sat in front of him. Calum saw Michael come out of the line and waved him over to sit with us when Calum turned back around Michael smirked at me. You don't even understand how much I wanted to slap that stupid smirk off his face. "Hey princess," he whispered as he sat down. "asshat" I whispered not looking up from my crappy lunch. Calum was too busy talking about football plays with his new friend that I don't even know he didn't even bother to introduce us. Whatever I don't even care i'd probably forget his name by next period anyways. Towards the end of the lunch period Calum got up to put his tray up and wasn't paying attention and bumped into that geek kid in my 1st period his water spilled all over him and Calum just laughed and walked off. The geeky dude I didn't know ran off and I got up and followed him Calum can be such a jerk. I ran into the boys bathroom not caring because I felt bad for the kid I saw him standing in front of the mirror crying and trying to dry himself with paper towels he looked over when I walked in. "You aren't supposed to be in here this is the guys restroom." "I know and I don't give a shit are you okay?"i said kinda rudely "I'm sorry I didn't mean to be rude I just wanted to make sure you were ok." "Why would you care it was your stupid boyfriend who did this," he snapped back at me. He was right it was my stupid boyfriend who did this, but I'm not like Calum I care about other people when I'm in the mood, I can be a bitch at times. "Yeah I know my stupid jerk of a boyfriend did this but don't take it out on me I'm trying to help," I replied starting to get irritated. "What's your name," I asked walking up to him and grabbing some paper towels. "Luke,"he kinda half smiled. I could tell he was happy that I was helping him. "I'm Nicole," I smiled widely at him. "Who in this school doesn't know who you are," Luke said laughing. I blushed...a lot. "It's ok that's not a bad thing all the time." he said still smiling. I bunched the paper towels up in my hand and dabbed at his shirt trying to dry it. He just looked at me for a minute and I looked around the restroom my eyes stopped at the hand dryer. "Take off your shirt and put it under there," I said pointing at the hand dryer. "no I'm not taking my shirt off in front of you that's awkward and weird," "were in the guys bathroom, who cares." "what if someone walks in,"he said looking at me. "I'll lock the door I said getting up from sitting on the counter in front of him. He wasn't paying attention and didn't move so we were standing there like an inch apart not saying anything I looked up at him and he was looking at me. I looked back at my feet and he backed up. It was so awkward. I walked to the door and locked it. I turned around and he already had his shirt off under the hand dryer and I couldn't help but stare. I mean he had abs. He looked at me and we both blushed and turned around. I walked up to him and took his shirt to keep drying it for him. We didn't talk for what seemed like forever it was only 2 minutes though. "what's your next class,"he asked breaking the silence except for the hand dryer, "Mines Mr. Townsend." "Oh me too," I said looking up at him finally, all the water had kinda messed up his hair. I climbed back on the counter and combed my fingers through it and fixed it. "Hey thanks for helping me you didn't have to do this," he said quietly almost inaudible. "But I wanted to," I said looking in his eyes they were a beautiful blue. I looked all over his face. "do you have a lip ring?" "uh yeah, I got it to piss off my parents, but I can't wear it at school."
*beeep*
The bell to go to class rang. Luke pulled his shirt over his head it was mostly dry. He looked at me upset. "what's wrong?" I asked him. "I really don't wanna go back to class everyone's gonna look at me and laugh and make fun of me even more."he whispered tears starting to form in his eyes. I wrapped him in a huge hug, he hugged me back really tightly and I heard the door shake but it was still locked we pulled back from the hug and I looked up at him tears had started falling and I wiped them away with my thumb and we just sat there for a second and he whispered once more thanking me. "no problem,"i said grabbing his hand and jumping off the counter. I pulled him with me to my locker and got some books his locker was across the hall from mine so it worked out. I went to his locker as he shut it and I grabbed his hand again and we walked to class together. We walked into class still holding hands and everyone was staring at us. I looked around the room and there were 3 seats open two in the back and one next to Calum liked he saved it for me I looked at Calum and Luke told me it was ok if I wanted to sit with him. I said "no way I'm not leaving you." We walked past Calum and went to the back and sat next to each other. Calum looked at me confused. I flipped him off
,and he mouthed "after school," and winked.
