Today I had to go to school. I've gotten absolutely no sleep in the past two days. Well if one hour counts. Skipping school wasn't an option because Sam and I had to present our project today. I grab some clothes and pull them on slowly. I wore jeans with a black tank top. Instead of pulling on some cute shirt I put on Sam's jacket. I zip it up a little leaving it open for the most part. When I was checking myself out in the mirror I hear my name from the conversation going on in my sisters room.
"Yea I think he likes her." Lexa asks.
"Why?" The unknown girl in my sisters room asks.
"You saw how he looked at her the other morning. You saw how happy he was that night also." My sister says.
"I don't see what he would like about her." The unknown girl says. This girl was getting on my nerves.
"Sam and Nicole have been friends before I was born. Yes they hated each other for a while but my sister is very forgiving. If you ask me I think they would look cute together. I also think that they're perfect for each other." She says. That's the Lexa I know. Loves romance and always wanting people to get together.
"I just think Sam should be with me." The girl says. As soon as she said that I knew who it was. Ainsley. Before I knew it I was in my room with small tears escaping my eyes. They weren't sad tears they were more tears of fear. I was afraid of a 14 year old because of a dream.
"Come on Nicole stop it. It was only a dream. It wasn't real." I mumble to myself. My phone buzzes. 7:50. It was just 7 five minutes. Did I really spend that much time trying to calm myself down? Shit schools about to start. I slip on my white vans and run out of my room.
"Lexa! It's 7:50!" I shout as I run down the stairs. Alexa and Ainsley were sitting at the counter talking and drinking some juice.
"Hey. We're ready." She tells me. I nod.
"Go get in the car. And start it for me would ya?" I ask her tossing my keys at her. They both run out to the car.
"Are you okay? You don't look to good." My mom says feeling my forehead.
"I'm fine. Just had a lot of homework." I lie.
"Okay. If you ever feel bad or sick just call me." I nod and grab a water.

"You girls got everything?" I ask as I get in my car.
"Yea. I like that jacket. Where'd you get it?" My sister asks me.
"Oh um it's not mine." I say to her.
"Then who's is it?" She questions me.
"It's Sam's. He made me wear it after we hung out yesterday." I say to her looking behind me to back out. Ainsley was giving me a glare but I brushed it off.
"What did you guys do?" My sister asks nudging my arm.
"Well we went swimming at Taylor Caniff's house. He had all of his friends there." I tell her.
"Who all was there?" She asks.
"Let's see, Taylor..."
"Well no duh!" My sister exclaims. I smile a little.
"Nash Grier, Cameron Dallas, Jack Gilinsky, Jack Johnson, Shawn Mendes, Aaron Carpenter, Carter Reyonlds, Matthew Espinosa and Hayes Grier." I say telling her the long list of boy.
"You hung out with Hayes?" She asks with her eyes lighting up. I nod. "He's so hot!" She says pretending to faint. I smile.
"I'll make sure to mention you when I talk to him." I say. She squeals as we pull up to school.
"Are you doing anything after school?" I ask her.
"I'm going over to Morgan's. She's taking me." She says as he steps out of my car.
"Okay. I'll see you later then?" She nods and closes the door. I climb out of my car locking it and walk to my locker.

Sam's POV
I had so much fun with Nicole yesterday. My plan was to bring her there to see how my friends liked her. They loved her. Some more than what I hoped for. Nicole has to be at school because I was not presenting this project on my own. When I was walking down the hall I see Nicole at her locker. I carefully walk up behind her and wrap my arms around her waist. She jumps a little when she first feels my touch.
"Hey beautiful." I whisper in her ear.
"Hey." She says quietly still putting books in her locker.
"Did you have fun yesterday?" I ask her.
"For the most part." She says again quietly still not looking at me.
"What's wrong?" I ask her. She shakes her head a little. Okay something was seriously wrong. She never denies anything is wrong unless it's really bad. "Nicole tell me what's wrong." I say as I turn her around. She had dark bags under her eyes. Speaking of her eyes they were red and puffy. She was crying. Why was she crying? "Are you okay? What happened?" I ask her.
"It's honestly nothing." She says again.
"Something's wrong. I wanna help." I say to her.
"It's...its just nightmares. They're really bad." She says to me.
"And why am I just now hearing about this?" I ask her. She shrugs.
"I don't want you to know...I don't want anyone to know." She says closing her locker door.
"I want to know so I can help you. I care about you." I say holding onto her hand.
"I-It's just stupid stuff." She says looking down.
"Hey, nothing about you is stupid." I say lifting her chin up and placing a kiss on her lips. She sighs and we start walking to class. Nicole tells me about her dreams. They were all bad. People calling her names...me calling her names. Ainsley pushing her off of a cliff...me not there to save her. "Nicole if anything like that happens I promise you that I will do anything to prevent it or anything to save you." I tell her. She smiles a little, but I can sense there is something she hasn't told me. "You ready for this presentation?" I ask her. She shrugs and we walk into class as soon as the bell rings. We all take our seats and our teacher takes roll.
"First up Nicole and Sam." We walk up to the front and begin our presentation.

"We did great." I say to Nicole as we take our seats in the back of the room. She shrugs and watches Matt present his project with his partner Amelia. "I know you're keeping something from me." I whisper to her.
"I'm not. I promise." She says giving me a sweet smile. Matt and Amelia's project was okay but not as good as ours. When they're done I see Nicole pull out her phone. When she puts hers down Matt picks his up. He looks up at Nicole fearfully and shakes his head. She nods slowly. What were they talking about. I had to find out.
