Chapter 1
Claire's POV
-----------------
"...you are a bitch!"
The simple statement rang in her head like church bells early Sunday morning. And just like the alarm clock ringing in her ears now. She groaned and glared over, 7:00 AM. Then realization it her. It was Monday morning.
'...what happens Monday?' Brian's voice sang to her like a warning for the day ahead.
"Claire, sweetheart, hurry!" her mother called from downstairs. The words took a moment to register in her head. And her mouth took even longer to form any words.
"Yes..mommy.." she said slowly. Radio clicked on. Simple Minds- 'Don't You Forget About Me' played. Oddly enough, it reminded her of John Bender.
/Won't you come see about me/
/ I'll be alone, dancing, you know it baby./
/ Tell me your troubles and doubts, giving me everything inside and out./
/ Love's strange so real in the dark./
/Think of the tender things that we were working on./
/Slow change may pull us apart, when the light gets into your heart baby./
/ Don't you...forget about me.../
/ Don't, don't, don't, don't./
While thoughts of the gorgeous bad boy filled her head as she walked over to a large walk in closet. A pink off the shoulder sweater and jean knee length skirt with black boots. Her hair was combed to a neat perfection. She glanced at the clock. 7:47 AM. She ran downstairs, grabbing the brown jacket and tossing it onto her slim upper body. Walking out to the car she slipped into the BMW. Her father got in and drove her to school.

John Bender's POV
------------------------------------
"You got school today?" His father asked, hopefully.
"Are you a fucking idiot?" he replied harshly, "It's Monday, asshole! Of course I got school. Damnit, you always this smart?" He said with full-blown attitude. Just as his dad was about to attack him he rushed out the front door. The school was four blocks away, he walked quickly. He got there right when Claire did. Walking infront of her car, he didn't even acknowledge her and all hope on Claire's face fell. The guy she'd been thinking about all morning just blew her off. John Bender walked into the school, greeted by four of his 'pals'. Claire got out of the car and walked passing him.

Claire's POV
-----------------
It hurt, she sighed as she passed him.
"'Ey! Cherry!" he called. She turned and looked hopeful. "Whatcha' got under that skirt, anything I can play with?" Her face fell, yet again, as he tossed his longish , brown hair back. Winking and blowing a kiss at her. That hurt even more as he gave her that signature lopsided grin. But what hurt most...
he was still wearing her earning.
