Recap:
Standing at the gates to the school, waiting for me, was Sarah. I'd completely forgotten about our fight last night but I noticed she had an apologetic look on her face that was until she saw Nicky standing beside me with a big grin on his face. Her face turned livid.
"You know what you are Pippa?! You are an absolute fucking BITCH!" she screamed at me, and then ran off. I turned to a very confused Nicky, quickly apologised, and ran after Sarah.
What had I done? I know what I'd done. I'd caused myself to lose one of my best ever friends just by talking to a boy.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When I rounded the corner Sarah had disappeared. She must have gone inside, I thought, but that second the bell rang. I really wasn't saved by the bell. I walked to my first class, English, with tears pricking at my eyes. My breath caught in my throat and finally one tear slipped down my cheek. I knew it was stupid to cry, but my best friend who I had known since I was 3 had just run off from me. And what had I done? Absolutely nothing, except talk to Nicky. Yeah I know she's obsessed with him but seriously people, it's a free country! I'm allowed to talk to who I like. And what right does she have to stop me. She can't control me, I have my rights. The tears stopped abruptly and my fists started to clench. I could feel my sadness disappearing and being replaced by raw anger at my 'friend'. How dare she think she can get angry at me because I talked to some guy, and how dare she embarrass me like that in front of everyone, and call me a bitch on top of that, just the shouting was bad enough. I decided I wouldn't go and chase her, that was her decision to run off, not mine, I hadn't done anything so I'll just wait for her to apologise to me.
I walked into my English classroom and sat down in my usual spot. Sarah should have been sitting next to me but I was shocked to see her sitting with Emily and Tayla, the school sluts. I hated them and had done ever since I started at my school in year 7. They were bitchy, conniving and fake and the fact that they were in the highest ability levels for most lessons just added to their smugness. Plus they were like copies of one another. They both had long, fake blonde hair, orange faces, big boobs, and had very, very short skirts on. I truly hated them. They were like what Nicky normally is, but ten times worse with the embarrassment. And to see Sarah sat over there with them made my heart sink. The sadness was coming back, but I had to be strong about this.
The lesson dragged on and on, time felt like it had slowed so much that one hour became ten. Every two minutes or so Sarah would look over at me leering, and carry on talking with Emily and Tayla. I was pretty sure they were not liking Sarah sitting with them judging by there faces, they probably thought it was bringing there popularity down.
Finally the lesson ended and I stalked my way out of the classroom, making sure I definitely did not look at Sarah or any of her new 'friends'. I made it to my next lesson which was history. Luckily Sarah wasn't in this class. I sighed in relief and sat down in my place at the back of the classroom. As I was looking in my bag for my books I noticed someone sit down next to me. I looked up to find myself staring into a pair of sparkling blue eyes, the colour of the sky on a summers day, and felt myself sinking into them. "Err hello... Mrs. Dreamer, please awaken from the land of daydreams, her presence is required". I was shocked out of my staring by Nicky's low voice and realized I'd been staring into his eyes for quite a while now. I'd forgotten he was in this class. I shook my head and cleared my thoughts. "Sorry" I said, sheepishly and Nicky chuckled.
"I know you just can't resist it, I'm just too sexy" he said with a smirk on his face.
I scoffed at Nicky, "you just keep telling yourself that".
He faked hurt and smirked. "One day you will fall for me, my friend, and god, am I looking forward to it"
"Why?" I asked with true curiosity.
"Because then I know I will have had every girl in the school fall in love with me" he said, arrogantly.
"Well" I said, grinning "you have a long time to wait, because that is never going to happen." I had promised myself this long ago, I wasn't stupid, and I saw what Nicky did. He picked up girls, got there hopes up, went out with them for like a week, and then dumped them, never speaking to them again. I seriously didn't want that to happen to me. I didn't want that kind of hurt.
"By the way, what happened earlier with you and Sarah?" he asked with confusion in his deep blue eyes that looked like silk and seemed to swirl around, making me forget all my troubles...
"PIPPA!" Nicky whispered harshly into my face. I snapped back to reality. God, I had to stop doing that!
"Sorry, sorry, it's a bit complicated I'll tell you at break." I told him. He nodded and we both shut up. The class was starting.
Thankfully history sped by and it was soon break. Me and Nicky grabbed our bags and went and sat on the field. It was a bit weird really. Before yesterday Nicky and I had barely ever spoken, except for Nicky's stupid comments, and today we were sitting together at break. People were giving us funny looks. The boys looked at us like we were two aliens walking through a city centre, and the girls, to be completely honest with you, scared me a little. Some of the looks they were giving me seriously made me think about running and hiding. But I couldn't blame them. I was sitting with the most popular guy in school like we were best friends, even though everyone knew about my serious dislike for Nicky. Many girls worked very, very hard to even get noticed by him but I had made it without any effort.
Now I thought about it, it did seem very sudden that Nicky wanted to be friends with me. It made me suspicious. I knew I still couldn't fully trust him; he could be playing one big prank. Maybe he was going to get me to spill some of my biggest secrets to him and then tell everyone, or maybe he was pretending to befriend me and then laugh at me, the friendship being one big fat lie and leave me on my own, or maybe he was trying to kidnap me or rape me or kill me or...
Stop, I told myself, you're being ridiculous, maybe he is just trying to be friendly for a change. But I still shouldn't let my guard down just in case.
"So, what happened between you and Sarah earlier?" Nicky asked.
I considered telling him a lie, not include that Sarah liked (was obsessed with) Nicky, liked she'd asked me to, to save her the embarrassment. But she'd embarrassed me. I'm telling him, I thought, Sarah can just live with whatever embarrassment she gets from this. I knew I was being a bit harsh but I didn't care she deserved it.
"Well" I started "you may be unaware of this but Sarah is just a little obsessed with you, to the extent of even if I talk to you she gets mad. It's a bit ridiculous really, I don't see why she likes you so much.
"It's because I'm a sexy beast" nicky said, wiggling his eybrows. I just rolled my eyes at him and carried on.
"Anyway when you added me as a contact on MSN and found out we'd been talking she got a little pissed off at me. At least she didn't find out what we were talking about" I said chuckling "Hmm, I never did find out how she found out we had been talking in the first place" I said getting sidetracked.
"Err sorry that was me, I didn't know she'd be so upset about us talking" Nicky said.
I slightly narrowed my eyes at him and carried on, "so she found out about us talking, and got a bit pissed off at me and called me a sket" I saw Nicky's eyes widen at that moment, but I saw recognition in them.
"She was obviously pissed at you for talking online to me so I guess when she saw us two together she lost it and has now fallen out with you" Nicky guessed.
I just nodded. "Wow, jealous much? What a bitch." I heard him mutter under his breath.
The bell rang for the end of break and I stood up dragging Nicky with me. As I turned around I was met with the sight of Sarahs face livid, for the second time that day. She was staring daggers at me, and she'd obviously just overheard my conversation with Nicky. But when Nicky turned around Sarahs face softened up completely, and slowly went bright red.
"Heyy Sarah" Nicky said his voice husky and sexy, "want to walk to class with me?"
She just stood there and stared until she final did one small nod. They linked arms and walked off into school together.
And me. I just stood there with my mouth hanging open. Hadn't he just called that very same girl a bitch just two minutes ago, and now he was walking off into school with her. Wow I was confused.
