Hi! My name is Nick Lucas and welcome to my "awesome" life. Well, I guess my life is like so many others,in other words boring. I have lived all my life in Dallas, with my mom, dad and little sister. Dad went to war about a year back, and we haven't seen him since then, but he writes us letters every month or so and also for our birthdays. Dad is in the military, you see. He is very firm about rules and order, but yet he is the most amazing dad anyone can ever wish for. Life with out him is really hard because we were, and still are, the best of friends. So, when he left for war I lost both my farther and my best friend. Mom seems to take it pretty well though, she knows aswell as my sister and I do, that he soon will be back with us. Speaking of my "beloved" little sister (who tend and/or enjoys driving me crazy) She can be described in 3 words:
Friend: Because I know that she'll always be there for me when I really need her.
Popular: Because... well it is pretty much self-explainatory (sp?)
And Crazy: Because she is IN LOVE with this huge pop/rock singer, Snow donas or Poe fonas, or whaterever his name is, and she LOVES speaking about him 24/7. I must say it is "slightly" beginning to drive me crazy. Anyways, I guess thats just Selena.
Monday Morning (school day)
Nicks P.O.V
"Urgh", I said to myself as the alarm started beeping. It cannot be serious about this? "5 more minutes", I mumbled into my pillow as the beeping intensified. "Can you not hear or somthing?" I yelled and violently threw my head into my pilliow. The beeping stops. "thank you", finally peace and quiet.
"Nick, Nick Nick Nick, NICK, Niiiiiiiicccckkkk!". So much for peace and quiet, I thought as my bedroom door swung open and my little sister came jumping into my room. Who has that kind of energy in the morning? "Leave, Selena, I wanna sleep" I said as I turned to the other side, trying to fall back to sleep. "NO!, Guess what? I entered the contest, ohhhh I sooo hope I'm gonna win!, Imagine this: A date with the Love of my life. Doesn't it sound soooo romantic" she said as she threw herself on the bed and sigh dreamily. "You don't even know this "Flow bonas, and who even says you are the one who will win the contest?" She hit me hard over the head with her history book. " Don't even dare talk to me if you do not know his name!" And then she stormed out of my room, smacking the door hard as she did so. Better get up before she gets back in here and starts talking baout him again.
At school
I quickly grabbed my books from my locker and hurried to english class. I luckily made it in time just as the bell rang. "Dude, where were you? I thought you were bailing on me or somthing?" I looked to my right and true enough there was Jonathan. We had decided to skip some classes later to go play baseball at the park. Jonathan was not the best friend in the whole world. He was a little too... eh... clingy. It was close to being gay, which could make you a little uncomfortable once in a while. "No man, My sister just held me up with all her "Im in love" shit, you know how she can be sometimes" I said as I took the seat beside him. "Ah, riight, well were skipping after english right?" He whispered.
"Yeah yeah, now shut up, I wanna check Stacy out, she looks so hot today" And she did indeed, her long-wavy brown hair fell down over her shoulders. She was wearing a purple dress, which would have been called slutty by most people. She looked at me and winked. I took out my phone and wrote: "Skipping after english, baseball, wanna come?" I pressed send as I tried to hide my phone from the teacher. I saw her look down at her phone and I was wishing so bad, that she would come.
I recieved a message: " Can't, parent-teacher meeting at 2, sorry" Aw, why my I always have such bad luck.
After school at home in the kitchen
"Do you think I'm gonna win mom?" Selena asked my mom for the 7th time today. Yet my mom kept calm and simply answered;"Yes dear, of course you are" I rolled my eyes, why did she care so much about this? "So the contest ends tomorrow and the you get the results thursday and the date is saturday, and I have this friend who also got her sister to enter for her so she had a double chance of winning" She told me. "Interesting, and I want to hear about this why?" I asked as i again focused on my homework, rolling my eyes at her. "Well..." She look a bit nervous "I kinda entered you"...
My eyes shot up from my homework and looked at her with fury. "You did WHAT?" She stepped a bit away from me and said "Well, it would be me going on the date not you!" I stood up not believing that she would do this, I didn't care for her stupid "boyfriend". "Nicholas Lucas, would you calm down?" Why does she have to use my full name? Is that just something mothers to do make you uncomfortable or what? I breathed in and exhaled. "Fine, it's not like they are going to pick a boy anyway, the guy isn't gay right?" I asked as I again sat down in my chair. Selena shook her head "No, he's not but..." She was interrupted my my mom. "There you see Nicholas, it means nothing, it'll be alright" and by that she went into the living-room. "But what?" I asked her ignoring my mothers interuption, still slightly annoyed at Selena. I could see she gathered courage and then said: " But you had to be a girl to enter so I wrote Nicky instead of Nick" and with that she spurted (sp?) up the stairs and into her room. Leaving me behind furious at her. I'm not even gay? Why in the world would I want to go on a date with a guy then? I shook my head and gathered my books. Theres is like one in a billion chance it will be me, I truely had nothing to worry about.
The next day in school
I entered the school with Jonathan who gave me and my sister a ride everyday. Everything seemed normal, yet alot of people I didn't know was staring at me. Weird, ah well of to class.
Jon (jonathan) and I walked to class talking about our baseball game (which we won) and new tactics (sp?), but when we entered to class room he suddenly stopped and ran over to a free seat. What? I thought. What's wrong with him today. Then suddenly a paper-ball hit the side of my head. "Hey Jonas, I didn't know you were gay for that twinkle-fairy pop star Joe Jonas?" I looked at him in confusion. Gosh, I hated Jimmy, the biggest Jerk at school. (Yes with a capital J lmao xD) "I'm not?" I answered and sat down at a open table. "Well, that's not what I have heard! Nicky-poo here signed up for at contest to win a date with his little boy friend!" The class roared with laughter, some people even fell of the seats laughing. Jon looked at me in gulit, yet he was not laughing. I guess he told Jimmy? I sunk down in my seat, I couldn't way till the day was over. I didn't let their laughter get to me though, I'm not gay so it doesn't really bother me if the laugh at something which is not real?
At home after school
I couldn't get home fast enough. I knew Jonathan had told Jimmy and the rest of the class, but who told Jonathan? Only one person besides me knew about it and she would soon regret everything. I opened the car-door and ran inside the house. Mom wasn't home yet, if so, I would have been grounded. "SELENA!", I yelled at the top of my lungs. Soon after she came down the stairs looking kinda confused. "What's up Nick? What's wrong?" She asked scratching her head lightly. I simply couldn't calm down, not that I have a thing with anger but this really pissed me off. "WHY? did you tell Jonanthan about the contest? You KNOW he can't keep a secret?" I said as I stepped towards her. She looked long at me, then at the stairs before she ran up to her room. I ran after her, eager to get some kind of explanation. She had locked the door to her room, so I kept banging on it for several minutes. I finally calmed down and slid down the door with my back against it. "I'm soory Nick, I didn't mean to do it, it just... slipped out", she said through the door. She obviously regretted the fact that she had done it. "It's okay, Sel. I just didn't like the thought of people calling me gay" She opened the door, making me fall on my back through her door way. She looked at me grinning. "I get the letter tomorrow though, so it will all be over?" Suddenly somthing hit her and she started screaming. "AHHH, I'm going on a date with Joe Jonas, I NEED to get ready" And with that she dissapeared into her room.
