Nikki's POV

############

I slowly open one eye and see Mel's arm on my face, " Really?" I sigh, I take her arm and move it off of me, and by her side. I close my eyes and ( Whack!) Mel's arm is back on my face, but this time it hurt. " Melanie!" I yell, " What?" She moans, rolling over. " Whatever" I say, giving up.

I roll over on my side, my back facing Mel, I try falling back to sleep but can't. So I grab my grab my Iphone 5 c, Pink and click the button on the right side, so it'll display the time, 10:45, " Ugh!" I moan, I need to get up I need to, but I don't want to.

" Nikki, what time is it?" Melanie asks, " Uh, 10 something" I say, trying to remember. " Oh My God! My mom is gonna kill me!!!" Melanie says in a panic, Melanie gets up and searches for something, " What are you looking for?" I say in a yawn, stretching my arms, and rubbing my eyes. " uh, my things, my bag, everything, I have to get home. I told my mom I'd be back at a certain time today, and I'm late! Help Me!"

Melanie was running all over, throwing bags and clothes everywhere, and here I am, siting, still trying to make out of what's going on. " Nikki! Please!" Melanie says in my face. " Okay, Okay, geese, calm down" I say getting up and turning on a lamp. " Here, is this yours?" I ask, holding up a black laced bra, knowing that it couldn't be mine, because mine aren't black.

" Oh yeah, thanks" I walk out of the room, leaving Melanie to her business. While walking into the kitchen, my phone goes off, a song coming on from PTV. " Oh my fucking God, leave me be!" I say out loud, walking into the room, Melanie hands me my phone, " Thanks" I click the answer button and talk.

" Hello?"

" Hi, is Melanie there?"

" Yep" I say turning around, Melanie looking at me.

" Can you put her on the phone? This is here mother, it's kinda an emergency"

I

hand the phone to Melanie, " Who is it?" Melanie asks, I shrug my shoulders and head towards the kitchen to get a glass of water.

" My mom is such a bitch, like seriously, I told her i'll be home when I awake, but I told her what time i'd awake, and she totally freaked out on me. Like, what the hell?!" Nikki says walking into the kitchen, bags in her hands.

" So does this mean you have to leave?" Melanie nods, sighing. " Well, call me, or text me, when you get home, okay?" I say, " I can't, I threw it at the wall" Melanie says laughing. She walks towards the door and opens it, smiling and waving. I wave back, and she's gone.

The door opens again and it's Melanie, " Miss me?" I say laughing, " Hahaha, Look, may I have a ride over there?" I look at the clock hanging above the door, 11:15. " Sure, take ten" Melanie shuts the door behind her and heads towards my kitchen. I run up stairs and walk into my room.

Most of my walls are a light purple color, but the hall way walls, are chalk board paint. Drawings and names all over. I look at them when I enter my room, finally reaching the main part of my room. I walk over to my closet and turn on the lights. I throw on a pair of short shorts and a flowie tank top, with some black flip flops and sunglasses. " Are you ready yet?" Melanie yells, " NO!" I reply back, grabbing a hair brush and putting my brunette hair up.

I head down stairs and I see Melanie on my phone. " Hey!" I say, grabbing my phone out of her hand. " I was just playing a game" Melanie says sighing. Melanie walks out and so do I, grabbing my car keys and shutting off the lights.

Melanie's POV

" Thanks again Nikki" I say hopping out of the truck, and opening the back door to grab my bags. " Anytime, and hey, get a new phone" I nod and head into the house. I open the door and I hear some music, " Anybody home?" I yell, setting my stuff down on the floor. I walk upstairs and I find my dad in his office, " Dad" I say, surprised that he's actually here.

" Hey honey, where have you been?" he asks, pausing the music, I walk into the room, " I spent the night at my friend Nikki's house" I say smiling, " I thought you two weren't friends anymore" he says, "no that was me a Janessa" I say.

" Oh, so is there anything you need? I'm heading out but I'm coming back tonight for dinner." I look at him, wondering why he's here. My dad is never home, but when he is, it's usually because he needs more money, or something useless.

" Uh, no not really, just a new phone, mine broke, so I have to go get a new one" I say, hoping I can leave, " I'll go get you it" my dad offers, " No, no it's okay, I'm gonna go by myself, you know, some alone time." My dad has this expression on his face as if he's saying ok.

I wave bye and walk to my room. " Okay, I need a phone, but don't have one, and I need to breathe, but I don't know how to" I say frustrated. I grab my laptop and lay on my bed for hours.

( You Have 5 New Messages)

Great, I think to myself, I open them, and they're all from Nikki.

***********************

R u okay?

Did u get a new phone yet?

Hey call me!

Wanna go out?

What's your new phone number?

**********************************************

Nikki is a type of girl who is really lovable, like, she can never get mad at you. If she is mad, then it's something serious. She's never mad about a break up, or if someone stole something ( unless it's her phone), and she likes knowing about everything. She's obsessed with Social networks, especially Instagram, and she loves shopping.

I reply back to her.

***************************

Yes I'm fine, my dad is home ( which is odd) and he's staying for dinner

No I haven't

I will when I get another phone

No, can't, busy sorry :(

********************************

I close my laptop and head sown stairs, remembering that I left my bags and purse down there. I run down stairs and I see my mom. " Hey" I say, walking towards my bags.

" Melanie your grounded" Mom says, putting her hands on her hips, great I say Hi or Hey and this is what I get. What the fuck?

" And why?"I ask, walking towards her, my bags now in my hands. " Because, you said you'd be home at a certain time and-" Now I lose it.

" God Mom, I told you that I'd be home at a certain time! I woke up and realized what time it was. I came here ad fast as I could, Why the fuck are you grounding me? I'm here aren't I ?! So there's no fucking reason I should be grounded!!" I yell at her, now I'm in her face.

" You yell at me again, and I will slap you so hard your head will spin!" She warns me, " So what? This is what I get I-" a sting hits my face, I look up at my mom is yelling at me, but I can't hear her, ringing noises fill my ears, and I fall to the ground.
