Chapter 1

The sun was shining bright, and Nika couldn't help but cover his eyes. It made the rest of the sky hard to see, and it seemed like it would be a normal day. The school was quiet, but average to say the least. Nika's friends came up to see him as usual.

"Nik what are you gonna do 5th period?" Said Alan.

"Not sure. Why? Are you smoking in the courtyard again?" Nika replied.

"Hey hey! Keep your voice down."

"Heh no thanks. Do we have new students today?"

"Hmm? Oh yeah. Some new juniors and pretty cute might I add."

"Oh. Is that so?"

"Look for yourself."

Nika looked down the hall to seen a mahogany-eyed black-haired girl. She was stunning and just perfect. Nika hadn't felt anything towards girls until she showed up. She was different in a way he could not explain. He watched her as she passed by noticing that she blushed when passing him. She couldn't feel like that, but then again a lot of girls did already.

"Uhm….E…excuse me?" She asked sounding scared crazy.

"Yes?" Nika stepped forward away from the locker.

"Uhm…where's room 413?"

"Oh that? Go four doors down from this one." Nika pointed behind him, and she blushed quickly running down the hall to get to class. She wasn't paying attention when she fell spilling her books. Nika went over and started to help her.

"Oh no please I'll get it. My fault for being clumsy."

"Please I insist." He got down picking up her books and seeing she was in Adv. Bio Chem. "Wow quite the class."

"Ah!" The girl had seemed almost shocked that he was looking at her class. It was embarrassing to her.

"I'll see you around? Oh by the way. The name is Nikarov: Nika or Nik for short."

"Y yeah. I'm Nima. S see you Nika." But he was gone before she could even get the words out. The bell rang signaling that classes were resuming, but Nika was not in class. He had skipped to see what the others were up to. As usual they were smoking and had a few drinks to go around.

"Alan where's the fire?"

"In my mouth idiot. Where else would it be?" His speech was slurred. Alan didn't hold alcohol very well.

"He's drunk isn't he?"

"Of course Nika. When are you going to come 'see' me again?" Asked Maria. She was the first girl to really sleep with Nika.

"When you get tested and are certain you didn't contract diseases from your latest boy toy."

"I did."

"Liar. I can tell because you don't look any different from the last time you got syphilis."

The day had ended for Nika only being 6th period, and the usual skip periods. Gym and study hall wouldn't miss him that much. Little did he know that Nima was in pursuit trying to catch him off guard.
