Chapter 1 - The First Day:

Monday, September 7th 2009.
Today is the first day of junior year (Grade 11) at Ocean View High School. For California teenagers, it's like heaven on earth. For me, it's not. Hi! I'm Nicole Carter. A 16 year old Italian. The head cheerleader and a competitive volleyball player. It sounds like i'm the typical perfect Mary Sue, but i'm really not. Living in the O.C isn't what you expect, there is drama, romance, tragedy, But mostly, A LOT of drama! This place is a real life soap opera. Everywhere someone goes, They're surrounded by freaking idiots and a chain of bullshit started by someone. Like most teenage girls at Ocean View High, we're obsessed with boys and relationships and having sex, Speaking of relationships, I'm currently in a committed relationship with the basketball captain and their all star player Percy Jackson. He has the cutest eyes and a smile that you can't resist. My long time best friend Annabeth Chase is one of the funniest girls I ever met. She's one of the most supportive best friends I've ever had and the most powerful. Her father, Frederick Chase is the Supreme Court Judge here in the O.C. Percy, Annabeth and I have 6 other best friends and are just as supportive, Caitlyn King, Zoe DiLiberio, Sean Cooper, Jesse Hall, Grover Underwood, Chris Johnston and Amy Stelatkos. Were the legendary group of 9 at Ocean View High and we run the school. Basically, living in the O.C. is just stressful but in short, All I can say is that in the O.C, nothing is perfect. Everything is unexpected and sometimes, Your fate can control you and there's nothing you can do about it. Let the story begin…

Sadly, sophomore year is over and today, We're officially high school juniors. Percy (August 18th), Amy (August 27th) and I (August 21st) recently celebrated our sweet 16 with me in August. We had a blast.

I was thinking about how our junior year is going to play out as I was driving to school in my Silver Toyota Camry. As soon as I pulled in to the school parking lot, Zoe was waiting for me by the front doors. I pulled into the nearest parking spot, grabbed my schoolbag and got out of my car and met up with Zoe at the front doors.

"Zoe!" I greeted

"Nikki!" Zoe greeted

We walked into the school together smiling and laughing.

"This year is going to be our year" Zoe proclaimed

"Damn right!" I exclaimed happily

As Zoe and I walked into the school, we saw our worst nightmares flash before our eyes, Bianca Di Angelo. Percy's bitchass of a cousin. She just moved here to the O.C. from Seattle and is here to ruin my life for currently dating her cousin Percy. I looked behind her and look. It's her best friend Katie Gardener. She's had a crush on my boyfriend since freshman year and is out to steal him from me. Zoe and I were shocked.

"OH!" I exclaimed

"MY!" Zoe exclaimed

"GODS!" We both exclaimed in unison

Katie and Bianca walked over to us with their fancy Prada bags and their Gucci heels, Too bad I one up-ed her ass last year when I spread those rumors about her being pregnant. She sure got the attention she wanted. Sucks to be her.

"Well, Well, Well" Katie smirked "Look who it is"

I crossed my arms and gave her a dirty look.

"If it isn't Anne of Green Gables and her best friend Diana Barry" Bianca retorted

Zoe panicked. "What do we do?" She whispered

I smirked. "Well, I guess you're just jealous of the fact that I have a hot body and you both weigh 32lbs. have the asses of a bag of oranges"

Bianca and Katie's jaws dropped in unison. Zoe and I walked away to meet up with Annabeth.

"You just fucking owned her ass!" Zoe exclaimed excitedly

"Here's a little lesson" I explained "Do NOT fuck with Nicole Alyssa Carter"

Zoe and I continued walking to our first period art class to meet up with Annabeth. Lucky us that all three of us are together for an 1 hour and 15 minutes. Zoe and I entered the classroom and saw Annabeth. She looked over at us and smiled.

"Oh My God!" Annabeth yelled "Zoe! Nikki!"

"Bethy!" I screamed with excitement

Annabeth got up off of her chair and hugged me and Zoe. "How are you?"

"Were great" Zoe replied

"I'm glad" Annabeth said "We spent, like all summer together"

"I know right" I said

"I cannot believe were high school juniors now" Annabeth explained

"Yeah" I sighed

"But this year is going to be different, I want this year to be the best. No drama or Bianca Di Angelo" Zoe explained

"Is Katie Gardener still after Percy?" Annabeth asked me

"Sadly, yes" I replied sadly

"Don't worry" Zoe said "We'll make sure Katie doesn't get anywhere near him"

"She better not" I said

"Oh yeah! Bethy! When Nikki and I ran into Bianca and Katie, Nikki owned Bianca's ass in a trash talk contest" Zoe announced

"Are you serious?" Annabeth questioned

"Yeah I'm serious" I replied

"That ought to show her" Annabeth said "She cannot fuck with us!"

"Yeah!" I exclaimed "We run this school and we will rule the school once again"

Annabeth, Zoe and I high fived and we all sat down together for our first period art class.

Jesse & Percy in the gym with Jesse shooting hoops, he and I are practicing for our huge basketball comeback game against John F. Kennedy High School in next month and we had to work hard to make sure that we win.

"Guess who just transferred here to Ocean View High School?" Jesse questioned

"Who?" Percy asked

"Bianca Di Angelo" Jesse replied

Percy dropped the ball and my eyes widened in shock. "Are you serious?"

"Sadly, yes" Jesse replied

"Is Katie Gardener here with her?" Percy asked sacredly

Jesse panicked and his eye's moved around side to side. He gulped in scarce and didn't know how to answer.

"Well?" Percy questioned

Jesse sighed. "Ok, Katie is here"

As soon as Percy heard that, his jaw dropped in shock. My shoulders had clenched in disgust and my mouth was dry.

"WHAT?" Percy screamed "My 6th grade stalker is here?"

Jesse nodded. "She's dating Luke Castellan but she's more interested in you"

Percy growled angrily and threw the basketball down on the ground and stormed out of the gym.

"Percy!" Jesse yelled

Percy ignored his yell and continued walking away from him and pretended that this conversation never happened.

After Zoe, Annabeth and I left our art class, we ran off to our history class. We made it just in time. The three of us sat in the back row in the middle 3 seats. But our luck turned sour when we ran into the dark and gothic retard Clarisse La Rue. She sat in the far seat by the window one row ahead of us. She gave me a dirty look.

"Well Well Well, if it isn't the Glee club" Clarisse retorted rudely

"Glee club?" Zoe questioned with a snot-nosed attitude "What happened? Retard camp's filled up?"

Annabeth giggled. "Talk about your 'goth' wannabe"

Clarisse growled. "Shut up you Athena brat!"

Nikki chose to stay out of the fight and just sat there silently until the bell rang but just a few seconds later, Our luck turned when Caitlyn came into the classroom and sat beside Zoe.

"Hey!" Caitlyn greeted

"How's it going?" I questioned

"Nothing unusual if that's what you're asking" She replied

I smiled. "How was your summer?"

"Great! I had the best time in Scotland!" Caitlyn explained

After Caitlyn had finished her sentence. The period bell rang and the entire class swooped in and sat down in their seats, our first day isn't off to much of a very good start. Things should get better soon.
