I MADE THIS CHAPTER LONGER THAN MY OTHERS :) YOU'RE WELCOME. ;P

I smirked walking towards him whilst hearing Lucy shouting "Nina! what are you doing?" continuously until I approached him and stood there waiting for him to turn around.

His friend nudged him, gesturing in my direction as I stood there with my arms folded, and smirk on my face.

"N-Nina?" He quietly stuttered in slight shock.

"Nina? don't you mean loser?" I confidently confronted him.

His friends were standing next to him in shock waiting for his response. I could tell Ian never talked to "losers" like me, judging by their facial expression and the fact that he knew my name, proved that he did know me.

He just stood there, unable to say anything.

"Are you stalking him?" One of his friends, Paul asked. He was another one of the "populars" in the school and was pretty good-looking. Of course not as much as Ian however he was a close second with chocolate-brown eyes, Blondish- Brown silky hair, and unbelievable abs that could be slightly seen through his plain blue shirt.

I just ignored his pathetic remark and looked at Ian with hopeful eyes, trying to show him that this is the place to apologise.

After a few minutes of silence he finally spoke "Can I talk to you .. a-alone?"

"No!" I shouted, "say what you gotta say right here, right now."

He paused one again with panic being clearly shown on his face while I just looked at him hoping he'd do the right thing.

"Let's go guys.. we're gonna be late for the movie" he slightly mumbled to his friends as they all walked past me glaring at me with slight confusion on their faces.

I was completely gutted. Was his "popular" reputation really that important to him? that he would risk his education for it? I thought to myself. I also couldn't believe he would just hurt me like that, again but I didn't want to admit it to myself that I was hurt. I stood there feeling betrayed and broken all over again with the same thought running through my head, This can't be the Ian I met 2 years ago. I hated him and as soon as this tuition thing was over I wasn't gonna be crushing on him at all. Heck, I wasn't even gonna go near him!

Suddenly I felt hands on my shoulders making me jump a little in the air before turning around to see Ian standing there with pleading eyes.

"Okay, I can explain" He started before I cut him off,

"I'm sure you can, but I don't wanna hear it" I declared walking away from him pretty pissed off.

He followed me and tried to explain anyways.

"Look Nina, I really am sorry" He apologised trying to be sincere.

"What, for the first time you humiliated me or the second time?" I asked him with clear annoyance in my tone of voice.

He sighed and continued "I'm really sorry about that Nina, it's just my friends were there and-"

I stopped walking. "So?" I asked him.

"So I have a reputation!" He told me making me furious. Is this what he calls an apology?

"You know what Ian, you can take your "reputation" and you can shove it" I fumed before quickly walking back to my friends.

My weekend didn't go so well because of the already bad mood I was in and my mothers constant ranting, but it was monday today and I was getting ready for school. I threw a white hoodie on and wore some black demin shorts underneath before running downstairs, grabbing an apple and leaving for school.

I arrived at school as Lucy and Britt came running towards me before I even reached the automatic school doors screaming slightly.

"What is it? why are you screaming!?" I asked them, astonished.

"P-PROM!!" Britt screamed with Lucy joining in.

I raised an eyebrow at them. They knew I hated prom, but every year they forced me to go and dressed me up since it was the one day I actually let him. I think that's partly the reason they're so excited but this year, I wasn't gonna let them persuade me. It's been tough lately and I really don't want to go.

"I'm not going" I exclaimed noticing the sudden drop in their faces.

"Why!?" Lucy asked.

"Because I just don't feel like it" I told her after shrugging.

She sighed. "Dont let Ian ruin prom for you!" She told me, "Just forget him".

"I really don't wanna go" I insisted before Britt cut in,

"You have to go!" She whined, "Please?"

Before I could respond, Lucy agreed "Please?"

I sighed knowing they wouldn't stop until I said yes but just to shut them up for now I told them I would think about it.

I got back from school and walked into my house only to see Claire sitting on the couch, texting on her phone.

Pretty surprised, I asked her "You're back?"

She looked at me, with a raised eyebrow and said "What does it look like?"

I rolled my eyes and ignored her sarcasm before continuing "How's dad?"

"Fine," she said getting up, "He says hi."

"Okay, so why are you back early?"

She smirked. "You didn't think I'd miss prom, did you?" She announced just as the doorbell rang. Claire walked towards the door and opened it as she saw a postman standing there holding flowers. She smirked taking them off his hands and closing the door. "These must be from Ian" She boasted, smiling and took out the small card that was tucked inside pleased that she had guessed correctly. "Told you" She simply uttered seeing the words "From Ian" on the top but soon her smile turned into a confused frown as she stared at me and whispered "but It's for you.."
