Chapter 1

"Students!" Mr. Medulla attempted to quiet the class as they gathered around Lash in hope of an autograph… "Students, find your seats!"

Jo(short for Joanna, but she didn't like being called that) had been sitting beside Lash since they started attending Sky high, and now began to get fed up of it…

Her focus drifted from the crowd of teenagers beside her and the fact that she was getting pushed and shoved, to Mr. Medulla's face and how it had changed from anger to desperation.

Having nothing else to do, and knowing that Lash would normally teased her about doing something good until she restrained him, went up to the front of the class and jumped unto the teachers desk.

Standing on the desk, she whistled loudly, just enough for the sound to echo through the classroom and quiet the noise. They all looked at her. "Don't you think it's time for you guys to shut the hell up?" with that, she jumped back off and unto the ground.

"Thank you Ms. Wynters" he said, a bit stunned.

"Whatever." She said going back to her seat.

"Alright class, find your seats." Mr. Medulla said tidying the papers on his desk that Jo messed up, throwing the leaves with her shoeprint in the bin.

"I give you props, they were going to suffocate me." Lash muttered.

"Just didn't want your head to swell." She chuckled a bit, taking out her I Pod from her pocket.

She then pulled back her chair and kicked up her feet unto the table, and closed her eyes.

"You're going to get in trouble." He said removing her right ear phone.

"That has never stopped me before." She said turning up the volume until Lash could here it, and saw a smile appear on his face, that was one of the reasons he fell for her, she was so much like him, it was scary.

Speed turned around to talk to Lash. "Gwen is killing me."

"What does she want now?"

"She wants to know if Justin Timberlake teaches you how to dance, and when are you going to released your first album."

"Yea, and very soon."

Speed turned back around, and seconds later a squeal was heard.

A thought ran through Lash's mind as to why Gwen was suddenly so interested in him.

And while he was thinking about it, it wasn't long before a girl entered the classroom and began to talk to Mr. Medulla.

"Thank you." She said as Mr. Medulla pointed to him, he was taken a back, but once she turned around to face her, a sense of relief filled him, as the girl standing before him was Nikki Logan, America's top model.

"It's Nikki Logan!!!!!!" Gwen yelled, almost having a heart attack..

"She's a babe." Will said

"I know I am." "Now, before you waste anymore of my time, you're Lash Summers, right?"

"What do I owe this visit?"

At that point, Jo turned off the volume, once she saw Nikki.

"Do you realize you're one of the celebs now, well not as well known and famous as I am, but will a bit of publicity and music videos, who knows, you'd be a Justin." Nikki said. "Photo OP." she smiled brightly, as she kissed him one the cheek, and 5 guys took multiple pictures of them.

"So we have a shot?"

"You're on my page, but I'm way out of your league." "Anyway, since you know Justin, and he's your chorographer, he's my boyfriend actually, I want you to start hanging out with someone."

"Who is that?"

"Nina, I taught her everything I know, and if you love me, you'd love her."

"Nina?" he was a bit puzzled, but once he saw her standing before him, his mind was diverted by her. "Nina."

"She will be your partner, music videos, movie previews, parties, you name it… she's yours."

"You're joking right?"

"This is just the beginning of being a celebrity."

She snapped twice, and Nikki's posse' and paparazzi left with her. "Enjoy. And, before I forget, Justin wants you to meet him at 5 at his place, a jet will be here to pick you up at 3."

Lash was overwhelmed with joy as a wide grin refused to disappear from his face…

Nina was given a seat beside him, and she took out a cell phone and handed it to him.

"You'll be able to reach me on this, and vise versa." Her voice was soft and seductive somewhat, as she pulled closer to him, she could immediately feel him become weak.

"Alright." He took the phone.

"Hey, Lash." Jo called to him, as she tapped him on the shoulder.

He looked beside him to see her, she didn't seem too pleased.

"Who's the chic?"

"It's Nina."

"Nina, this is Jo. Jo, Nina." He said, introducing her.

Jo knew exactly what was going to happen… with Lash, he was going to lose it, like he did last time… Any and every girl he seems to come in contact with that actually likes him, he' d get with, and they'd either betraying him, or break his heart, as well as his bones. Maybe that's why we stayed friends so long, because she always saw how much Lash loved her, but for the good of the both of them, she couldn't love him back, no matter how much she wanted to….

"So, when will this class finish?" Nina asked, looking at the clock on her phone. "We have to get ready for rehearsals."

"What rehearsals?"

"For the first video."

"So soon?"

"We have no time to waste. Justin told me to get you ready as soon as possible."

He thought for a while as to how he was going to get out of class.

"Hey, Speed."

Speed turned back around. "What is it?"

"I need to get out."

"Again, this is the seventh time this week, it better be important."

"Nina is important." Lash emphasized.

'Wow, he has never done this to me.' Jo thought, as he watched him in his desperate hope for Speed to comply with his plan. 'Maybe he doesn't love me as much as I thought.' 'Maybe he just comes to me for a person to lean on and empty all his problems, knowing that I always listen..' 'He seems to actually like this girl… A common case of Lash'

"Fine,….. Sir." Speed immediately began to make a whirlwind around Mr. Medulla with his rapid speed, just enough to give Nina and Lash enough time to leave, Jo followed them, she wanted to get to the bottom of how out of the clear blue sky, a girl just appears in the class…

They ran down the hallway, hand in hand, then entered the empty cafeteria, and locked the door shut…

Jo watched from outside as Nina began to show Lash the new moves for their first music video.

Inside, Lash began to feel watched, and when he looked out the cafeteria window's door, he saw no one, he waited a bit, still focusing on the choreographed performance by yours truly Justin Timberlake being danced by Nina, but still glanced over at the door window, taking one guess as to who it was.

Jo knew she would get caught soon, she already did, cause she was so much like Lash, she would look when he looked and get busted, and so said, so done, but something was different, this time, he pulled open the door, and she came toppling in, but before she fell, he caught her just in time.

"Jo, what are doing here?"

"What do you think I'm doing?" "Getting an early lunch." She said as she stood back up, he knew she always had an excuse for everything she got caught for.

"I think she was prying." Nina said, with a glare aiming straight at Jo, crossing her arms.

" Jo, Can't you just keep out of this, this once?" Lash asked her.

"What are you talking about, I don't understand." It was just normally a pass over for them whenever Jo was caught being curious in Lash's relationships which didn't last long for him to get a kiss, but something was different with this one…

"Leave us alone, Lash has no time to waste." Nina blurted out..

Jo looked at him, a bit disappointed, then turned around, heading for the door.

"Jo, wait."

"It's okay, I'll back off, no need to repeat yourself, Barbie here made it clear." With that, she left, traveling back down the hallway on her skateboard….

-At Lunch-

Lash, was with Nina, and once Jo saw them together, she diverted towards Speed, and Lash's friend's table.

"What's up shorty." One of the guys said.

"Nothing, guys, do you think I can sit with you?" she asked in a gloomy tone.

"Anytime dudette." Another guy said, and she sat down beside him.

"My bro's at you again, ain't he?" Lash brother, Zaine said, as he passed her an apple. "Do you want me to handle it?"

"No." "I'm fine." "Knowing him, he always comes back." She started to eat her lunch, occasionally looking at Lash and Nina, Nina very close to Lash, and early fans starting to gather….
