Here's the first chapter. about how it all started. first NDSSG fanfic ^^ enjoy :)
"Hey, Moze! Can I speak to you for a bit?" I asked the second I found my most reliable and best friend since childhood. "Sure, what's up?" she replied. It's time, I told myself, to tell her…I have no choice… It wasn't too long ago when I found this out about myself. "Well, I…uh… how can I say this…" I noticed that Moze was turning red. Very red. "Are you okay?" I asked, concerned for my friend. "Oh, me? I'm okay…why you ask? Better yet, just finish telling me what you were gonna say," she blurted it out, anxious to get me to talk.
"Umm, never mind. Sorry to bother you Moze," I chickened out. "Oh, okay then. Hey, Ned, in that case, can I tell you something?" she asked, kinda hesitating. "Sure. Shoot," I say, calming down my nerves. "Well, it's about that study group we were gonna have tonight. I won't be able to go, you see, my aunt came for a surprise visit. I haven't seen her for the longest time," she looked to the floor, blushing a bit. "Oh, well that's all right. The boys, Suzie, and I will try to manage without you. It'll be alright!" I said joking around. "About Suzie," she started again, "she's going to be with me. As my best female friend, I asked her to be there with me to meet my aunt. I would've asked you, but the study group was at your place so yeah…"
"Oh, I see. Well, I guess it'll be just us boys today," I said, sighing. Then again, it wouldn't be so bad. Cookie, Seth, Loomer (don't ask HOW on Earth he got into the study group), Faymen, and I will be able to study…or party! "And make sure you all study! NO partying around! Faymen will tell me what you guys do tonight," she glared. "O-kay then." "Well, hey! I gotta go! Class is almost starting, so yeah. Bye!" she gave me a small wave with a grin. "Later," I replied. I started walking to class when Cookie bumped into me. "Oh, hey Ned! I can't go to the study group tonight. I'll explain tomorrow. Well, gotta run! Bye!" Cookie ran as fast as I have ever seen him run. Maybe he finally got a date with Lisa? Well, I gotta admit, that Zemo got herself a huge makeover when we came into the 8th grade.
Okay, this confusion made it a time for some tips! *Ned goes to Tip Mode* "Study groups, the one grouping of friends that could be fun, and yet you study! [It's more fun when you have your friends over for a study group, but make sure you have at least one person who will keep you on track.] That way you do study, instead of party. Also, [invite those who you know that really need to study,] like let's say, Seth Powers! And, [be prepared to be asked to join.] If someone's crush is joining, be prepared. Loomer asked the second he heard Moze was going to be there. Too bad she's not going anymore…" *Ned goes out of Tip Mode*
"What'd you say?!" Loomer caught me by surprise. He had me pinned to a locker, his face so close to mine I can feel him breath on me. "T-that Moze isn't going to be in tonight's study group…?" I stuttered. Billy, or Loomer as we call him, is the school's bully. "Hah! After you promised that Jennifer would be there! Well, you know what? Be ready for a pounding tomorrow!" he walked off angrily. Hmm…well, Moze said that Faymen would be there, so at least it'll be three of us. At least that's what I thought… "Hey Ned," Faymen said as I walk to class. "Sup? Ready to study tonight?" I playfully and softly elbowed him. "Well, about that…I'm sorry. I can't make it. I know Jennifer asked me to make sure you study, but…I had a change of plans," he told me, hesitantly. "Oh, I see. Thanks anyways, Faymen," I said, feeling down.
*Tip Mode* "Another tip, when you make a study group, [make sure everyone doesn't get last minute plans.] It could totally kill your whole plan to make the study group." *End Tip Mode*
I walk in the classroom, and then I ended up tripping on what seemed to be the Weasel the Gordy always chases around. Then I land on someone, well more like I get caught by someone. First I see a green sweater, then a white shirt as my gaze goes higher, then I see his face and blonde hair. It was Seth Powers, the most beautiful jock in the whole school. Last thing I needed was for him to tell me that he can't make it either. I was the one who invited him. I was hoping to have some time with him! Yeah, this is what I was going to tell Moze. I don't know how, but I ended up falling for Seth. "Hey Bigby, careful there!" he told me, holding on to me till I got my balance back. "Seth, oh, hi! Th-thank you! It's nice to see you!" Nice to see you?! Idiot! "Haha! Nice to see you too, pal!" he grinned, putting his arm around my shoulders.
"Oh, hey, Bigby, can I tell you something? About tonight?" Oh no…now2 I'm beginning to think that no one even wanted to have this study group. "What, now even you're not coming?! What is it with you people?! The one time I want to study and no one's gonna help me!" I cried out annoyed to hell. "Ned, chill out! I wasn't gonna say that I won't go," Seth held me in front of him, his hands on my shoulders. "You weren't?" I asked, relieved. "No, I was gonna say that I'll bring some rad CDs to listen to while we all study. Plus, I was going to take a few bags of chips to eat, too!" he told me. "Oh, okay. Thank God! I thought you were gonna bail on me like everyone else did!" "Wait- no one else is going?" Seth asked, disgusted. Great NOW he'll bail on me.
"I can't believe them! After you went to all the trouble of inviting them and getting it all ready! How unthoughtful of them!" he continued. "Well, they had sudden change of plans," I defended them. "It doesn't matter! I wouldn't of had missed this study group for the biggest basketball game of the season! Well, maybe I would, but chances are I'll still go!" he told me, kinda blushing. Aww…So sweet…I blushed as well. "Wh-why would you say that?" I asked, looking down and then back at him. "I'm not sure…but I have a feeling that I just have to be there," he replied. The bell rang. We both sat in our chairs, completely on opposite sides of the classroom.
For the last two periods, I didn't see Seth in the halls. The only one of my friends that I saw was Cookie, but he ran off quickly again. Definitely got a date with Lisa if he's running that fast and not running from Evelyn Kwong.
