(flashback)

I was walking around cause i didn't want to be home with my annoying brothers. I ended up at the park for some odd reason. I saw her there..... it looked like she was crying?? I was wondering why she was crying. Those gorgeous green eyes shouldn't be crying. I started to walk up to her and I was right.....she was crying.

Joe: hey gorgeous, you shouldn't be crying.

???: Why not?

Joe: Your eyes are too pretty for all that water.

???: You don't even know my name, so how can you tell me what I shouldn't be doing?

Joe: Because you're too cute to be wearing a frown.

???: Still, you don't know me or what i'm going through so you can't be telling me what to do.

Joe: Well, i'm listening...

???: Ugh, you're not going to leave me alone till I tell you are you?

Joe: Nope, I am not.

???: Of course not. Well it's my dad...me and him got in a argument about my grades.

Joe: I don't understand... why did you two get into a argument about your grades?

???: Well I got a B in AP Chemistry and he wants nothing lower than an A, because he wants me to go to Harvard, and he was yelling at me saying "i'm ruining my chances on getting in and messing up my GPA." Also, he was telling me "i'm ruining my dreams".... the thing is, I don't want to go to that school or any college..i'm not sure what I want to do yet. It's his dream, not mine and I tried telling him that and thats how the argument started.

Joe: Well, thats not right for him to decide your future. It's your life, not his. I understand, he's your dad and everything, but this is your life, you have to make your own mistakes, your own choices.

???: Exactly, but he's like "I just want a better life for you then what I had". Right now, i've already got better than he ever had.. i've gotten everything i've ever wanted. I never had to work for it. I just asked, and got it. No matter what it was or how expensive it was.

Joe: Damn, daddys little girl, shall we say lol. its your choices,your business what you wanna do and he might not understand that. No one will besides yourself.

???: I'm not daddys little girl.....i'm his little princess. You seem to understand it.

Joe:Same thing pretty much... you get what you want either way

???: It's different to me.

Joe: Well, it's not..

???: Nope, it is.

She giggled then. Her little giggle was so cute. I just kinda watched as she sat there. I wanted her name... I was determined to get it one way or another.

Joe: You said i could get your name next time I saw you

???: I don't remember saying that

Joe: I do, that means you lied to me

???: Fine, you really wanna know?

Joe: Yes, I do want to know.

???: Nicole

Joe: I like that name

Nicole: Thanks

Joe: I'm gonna call you Nikki for short

Nikki: Only special people call me Nikki. What makes you think your that special lol.

Joe: Everything about me is special.

Nikki: Sure it is, conceded much.

Joe: Maybe a little.

Nikki: Lol at least you admit it.

Joe: Yup.

For the rest of the day we sat there, talked, joked around, and played games. It was a pretty good day.

I walked her home when we were done. I didn't want her to get in trouble or hurt by anyone else.

Joe: Goodnight Nikki

Nikki: Goodnight Joseph

Joe: It's Joe, but its cool.

I kissed her forehead and walked away some. I watched her walk in her house. As I walked home, all I could think about was that I finally got her name.
