Badder's POV:

I was walking home from Nixie's house when Nico called me, again. "Yes oh master of annoyingness?" I said answering my phone. "Did you find out if she likes me!" He asked in a rushed tone.
"No, we were working on my History report and I did not have time to do your dirty work. Why don't you just ask her out or something?"

"Because, if she shoots me down then I can't even be friends with her and that would totally ruin everything." He said as if it were obvious.

He had this freakishly huge crush on Nixie ever since before we met, when he found out I was friends with her he's been bothering me ever since. "Well sorry I don't want to fail."

"Don't you mean fail again?" He said trying to insult me.
"Yes fail again and thanks to that little comment I'm not sure if I'm gonna help you anymore." I said counter-acting his attack.
"I'm sorry! I didn't mean it!"

"Sure you didn't, don't cry Nico I was kidding."

"I wasn't crying!' He yelled.

I smiled, "I gotta go see you tomorrow." I said and hung up before he could respond. When I got home it was dark outside and I got a text, from Nico.
It read 'So you'll find out tomorrow right?' I just closed my phone and went to bed. In the morning, I had two missed calls and five texts. One text was from Percy, Nixie's brother, and everything thing else was from Nico.

When I got to school, I didn't need to find Nico. He found me. "Is you phone okay?" He asked. "Uh, yeah, why?" "I was just wondering because you never answered my texts…" He said looking disappointed.
"Texts? What texts? Boy, I think your phone is broken or something." I said because I felt bad for how sad he looked. "Oh well I sent you texts last night and-" *RING!* the bell screamed interrupting that annoying
rampage of Nico-ness. Luckily I didn't have my first two classes with him and then came third period, Language, one of my least favorite classes and Nico sat right next to me.

He walked in and sat down, "Hey" He said smiling. "I swear Nico if you don't stop stalking me people are going to think we're dating." I said after some girls looked over at us, giggled, then looked away. "And we wouldn't want Nixie
to think that now would we?" I said to him with an evil smile on my face. "No, not at all." And he scooted a inch farther away from me. I smiled and looked down as the bell rang.

"Okay class, I hope you're all ready for the quiz!" My annoyingly perky Langue teacher said as she walked in. "Ugh." I hissed under my breathe knowing I was going to fail. Nico glanced at me looking concerned, "You okay?"
"Yeah it's nothing. My head hurts." I said. "Do you need to go to the nurse?" He asked. That was a great idea! Leave it up to Nico to accidently give me an evil plan. "Yeah, I think so." I groaned.
"Hey, Mrs. Q Badder doesn't feel good." Apparently I looked like crap today because she bought it. "Okay go on down to the nurse Badder." She told me looking upset that I'd miss her
"wonderful" test or something.

When I got to the nurses office she told me to go lay down and I saw myself in the mirror. I did look sick, actually I kinda did feel sick. Power of suggestion?
Just then a kid about my height walked into the office, he had a bloody nose, a black eye, and the brightest green eyes I've ever seen. He had super dark black hair and he was really cute.
"Terrence what'd you do now?" The nurse asked him. "Another fight." He said and looked at his feet. The nurse sighed and cleaned up his nose, "Sit down and wait for the principle,
I'm sure he'll want to talk to you about this." He sat down and looked at me. "Hey." He said in a charming manner. I blushed "Hi, Terrence Lenete?" I asked. "That's me."
He said leaning back in his chair, "Badder Preston?" He asked me looking me up and down. "Yeah." I said. "Well isn't this my lucky day?" He said smiling. "Lucky day?" I asked him.
"Yeah, how'd I wind up here with the cutest sophomore at this school?" I blushed again. The bell rang and it was time for lunch, I was supposed to meet Nixie so I said, "I gotta go but I'll talk to you later right?"

"Only if I'm lucky." he said smiling.

I blushed again and ran off to find Nixie.
