"Desperate,
desperate You're
reaching out
And no one hears you cry You're freaking out
again
'cause all your fears Remind you another dream has come
undone
You feel so small and lost like you're the only one
You
wanna scream 'cause you're Desperate…"

(Nicole's POV)
I sighed as I pulled open the doors of Horace Mantis Academy, as I looked around I noticed students scattered in the halls. I walked over to the first girl I saw, she was standing at her locker going through something.
"Excuse me," I said quietly.
The turned toward me, "Hi," she said with a friendly smile.
"Hi, um, I'm new and I was wondering if you could tell me where the office is." I asked shyly.
"Sure, follow me," She instructed shutting her locker, I nodded following closely behind.
"So, I'm Danielle Anderson, you can call me Dani, I'm a senior." She said as we walked down under a banner reading 'Welcome Back!'
"Hi, I'm Nicole Evans but you can call me Nik or Nikki." I introduced myself to not only her, but to you the lovely readers who get to read my story. "Oh and I'm a junior."
"Really? My boyfriends brother is a junior." She smiled.
"Is your boyfriend a senior?" I questioned, I'm a curious person I can't help it.
"No he's a freshman at UCLA." She answered.
"Oh cool," I said with a smile. "That's where my sister, Mandy, goes."
"Is she a freshman?" Danielle asked.
I nodded. "Yeah her major is Music Industry and her minor is Creative writing."
My sister Mandy, is 19 and awesome. When she was 18 she disobeyed my brother and got a few tattoos that were easily hidden including on her right shoulder she has a white lily next to a tiger lily with a heart locket necklace around the two that was one that our mom had and it said Love is forever. On her left shoulder there is a beautiful waterfall with a mermaid and then Along the bottom of her back she has the music to nocturne in c sharp minor by Chopin. She also has about 4 piercings in each ear. Over the summer she got 5 more tattoos, the Cheshire cat tattooed on one foot and lock, shock, and barrel in their bathtub tattooed on the other and on the back of her neck she has a tattoo that says "Nevermore" with a raven sitting on the 'o' and on her left wrist in pretty cursive almost calligraphy it says 'Nicole' and on her right in the same it says 'Nate' and she has a lip piercing and her tongue too. My brother is going to have a heart attack.
"Here's the office," Dani announced opening the door for me. We stepped inside.
"Oh Ms. Anderson, what can I do for you today?" A women in her mid thirties asked.
"This is Nicole Evans, she's new and needs her schedule." Dani explained for me.
The women smiled and nodded getting my schedule the next thing I knew Dani and I were back in the hall.
"Wanna come meet my friends?" She asked.
I nodded and followed her.
"So where are you from?": She asked leading me down some stairs to a court yard.
"Um Florida," I said quietly.
"Cool really cool," She smiled.
"And Texas, New York, Tennessee, Germany, France, Italy, Sweden, um…Arizona, Colorado…"
"Whoa girl…" She said giggling. "Why so many places?"

"You
want somebody, just anybody
To lay their hands on your soul
tonight
You want a reason to keep believin'
That someday you're
gonna see the light…"

I took a deep breath ready to tell my story.
"When I was born I lived in South Dakota, my sister Mandy was 2 my brother Nate was 12. Anyway when I was 2 my parents died in an accident and we went to live with my grandma in here. When Nate turned 18 he joined the air force. I was 6 when he left Mandy was 8. Two years later Nate decided he wanted us around so we had to move to our first spot…New York, he was working on some research project there. Anyway, he got sent overseas in May and we came back from Florida to live with my grandma again." I explained.
"Oh wow, I bet you're really worried about him." She said softly.
I nodded slowly, "All the time."
We walked toward a boy and she sighed. "Do you ever put that thing down?"
The boy who had a guitar sitting on his lap looked up and Holy hell that's Nick Lucas.
He smirked. "Nope Never." And then he set it down next to him making Dani roll her eyes.
"Nikki that is my boyfriends brother Nick Lucas." Dani introduced.
"Hi," I smiled shyly at him.
"Hey,"
He smiled with a nod. Omigosh he is SO cute!
"Nick can I see
your schedule?" Dani asked sweetly.
He nodded then looked at me. "Last time I didn't listen to her Kevin pelted hacky sacks at me while I was asleep." He glared at Dani who giggled.
"I have no I idea what you are talking about." She smiled innocently.
I laughed, I couldn't help it.
"Oh you think that's funny?" He smirked.
"Psh no!" I lied but I plastered on an innocent smile.
"Ok I don't believe you," he began with a grin. "but that face is just too adorable so I'll let it go."
I blinked. Did Nick Lucas just call me adorable?
He handed his schedule to Dani who looked at it.
I glanced at them.
Nicks schedule was: 1st: Speech, 2nd: AP Honors Chemistry, 3rd: AP American History, 4th: English 11, 5th: Study hall, 6th: Government, 7th: AP Calculus, and 8th: Study hall.
"Smart ass," I mumbled he smirked.
Mine was: 1st: Speech, 2nd: Chem, 3rd: AP American History, 4th: English 11, 5th: Study hall, 6th: Music, 7th: Geometry, and 8th: Study hall.
So we have period 1, 3, 4, 5,and 8 together.
Suddenly a blonde came skipping, yes really skipping, up to us.
"Hey guys!" She said brightly.
"Hey Chloe," Nick smiled.
"Who is she?" She asked pointing to me with a smile.
"That's Nik," Dani mumbled still looking at me and Nick's schedule's making sure they are correct, I guess.
"No, Nick is right there, and he's a he she's a she." This girl, Chloe, said utterly confused.
"No I'm Nicole but you can call me Nik or Nikki." I explained to her as Nick laughed at her.
"Oh I get it!" She said smiling, obviously proud of herself.
"Do you Chloe, do you really?" Nick teased.
"Yes jack ass I do." She said.
Nick's face turned into an adorable pout.
"Dani she's being mean!" He whined. I giggled as I looked at Chloe's schedule.
Every class I don't have with Nick I have with her. She smiled seeing it and hi-fived me.
"To busy," she had now ditched the schedule and was texting someone.
Continuing to pout Nick turned and looked at me.
I shook my head "You got yourself into trouble you get yourself out."
He added droopy eyes and I broke, almost.
"No, even if that face is adorable I'm not breaking." I giggled.
He dropped the face and shrugged.
"I gotta go to my locker!" He declared standing. "I'll meet you back here in 10 minutes Nikki." He finished walking away.
