As I walked slowly down the street, with my books clutched tightly in my arms, I tried to remember the days when my Dad didn't drink, the days when my Mom was still around and most of all, the days when I wasn't scared of my own father coming home! I walked through the gates of East Northumberland High School. I had never really realised it before, but, there were so many cliques in our class! We had the sluts, the emos, the cheerleaders, jocks, geeks, losers, and then, us. Me, Demi and Taylor weren't really anything. We were, I guess you could say, normal.

'SELENA!' Taylor shouted. 'OVER HERE!'

I turned around to see Taylor waving me over. She was talking to some guys. I wasn't sure who they were, but I didn't really care either.

'Hey.' I smiled at Taylor.

She smiled back at me and introduced me to the boys. Their names were Joe, Nick and Kevin, fraternal triplets. Weird, right? I mean I'VE never heard of that before!

'Nice to meet you.' I forced a smile on my face before the bell rang for first period.

'You ready Tay?'

'Yeah! See you at lunch boys?'

'Sure thing!' Joe winked at Taylor and she blushed a little. OK, I know its mean, but I couldn't resist...

'Ooooohhh...what's going on there?' I smirked devishly at her, while she went bright red.

'SHUT UP!' She didn't stay mad at me for long, she knows I was only teasing.

LUNCH

With the Boys.

'Dude. You so like her!'

Joe laughed. 'No I don't Kevin! I don't even know her!'

We sat down nearest the door, watching out for Taylor and Selena. After about 10 minutes, they came through.

'Hi!' Taylor smiled as she sat down beside Joe.

Joe smiled at her.

SELENA'S POV

I sighed as I sat down beside, ummm, Nick. I couldn't help but smile at Taylor giggling at Joe, who was, of course, showing off.

'Heya.' Nick said to me smiling.

'Hey!' I smiled back. 'What's U—AAHHH!'

A splash of water fell on top of my head pouring right down over my face, cloths and lunch.

'WHAT THE HELL?!' I turned around, and surprise, it was Miley. She had tormented me ever since I took the last juice box in kindergarten. What was her deal? I grabbed a napkin and wiped my face.

'What's that?' Nick said pointing to my cheek.

CRAP! I thought as I ran out of the canteen into the bathroom.

Nick ran after me because Taylor was busy yelling at Miley.

'Selena?'

'Go away Nick!' I held back the tears as I searched frantically through my bag for my concealer.

He sighed, 'what was that on your cheek Selena?'

I opened the door. 'Nick, it's nothing just leave me alone!'

I tried closing the door but he stopped it with his foot.

'Look, I know you've only known me for 5 seconds, but, I've known you for a lot longer than that!'

'Huh? What do you mean?'

'Do you remember back in Texas? Barney reruns, pretending to drive my dad's truck and crashing it into a tree?'

'N-Nick? Nick Jonas?'
