Basically calling yourself pathetic
Naomi's POV
"Here you go daddy." I say as I hand him his breakfast which consisted of eggs, bacon and toast.
"Thank you baby girl," He says back to me.
I smile at him, then head back into the kitchen. My phone buzzed, and I see that it was a text Randy.
Randy: you need a ride?
I smile. He's been giving me a ride to school lately and it was really sweet. It's not that I didn't know how to drive, it's just that I was saving up the money to buy a car for when I graduate. We have a car, but it's broke down and can barley run, I don't think it's be too safe to drive.
I respond back to him.
Naomi: yeah, you don't mind right?
Randy: course not, I'll be there in ten.
I put my phone back in my pocket and grab a extra piece of bacon that I had made for dad.
I couldn't believe that in a couple months I wouldn't be doing this anymore, well school that is. I didn't really have any plans for collage, we didn't necessarily have the money for that. Plus I didn't even know what I want to be anyways.
I finish my food and walk back to the living room and sit on the couch and watch the morning news.
"Nikki Doll coming to pick you up?" Dad asks me.
I smile at the old nickname. My dad gave that nickname to her back when we were in the seventh grade. Nikki use to be pageants and was really girly, unlike myself who would have rather played outside with a ball. Dad gave her the name Nikki Doll because she looked like a doll at pageants. She said she hated doing them, so she stopped doing them.
I shake my head, "No, Randy's coming to pick me up."
"Randy?" He asked.
"Yeah," I say, "Daddy he's another friend."
He nods, "As long as he doesn't hurt you, I guess it's alright."
I raise a eyebrow, "Daddy, we're not dating..."
"Oh..." He said and I laugh.
"Well when your ready to date somebody," He said to me with a laugh, "Make sure you run it by me. I'd like to meet the boy."
"I'll be sure to do that Daddy," I say with a laugh as my phone buzzed. It was a text from Randy saying that he was here.
"I gotta go daddy," I say to him as I walk over to kiss his cheek, "Ms.Candice will come and check on you around noon and she'll come over here later on tonight while I'm at the game too."
"Alright sweet pea," He said as I walked towards the door and open it, "I'll see you later. Love you."
"Love you too," I tell him then close the door.
I walk out to Randy's grey Chevy Silverado.
"Good morning." He said with a smile as I got in.
I smile back at him, "Good morning."
"You have a good night?" He asks as he begins the route to school.
I laugh slightly, "It was a little restless. I mean it's really kinda hard to sleep after... Well that."
Randy gave a small laugh, "Yeah. You're right about that. I'm not ashamed to say, that was the scariest moment in my life so far. And hopefully the last."
"Your right about that," I say back to him, "I don't even know how a person is capable of doing that. And I can't believe they do that kinda crap for a laugh."
Randy nods and we ride in silence for a few seconds.
"So," Randy said, breaking the silence, "You thought any more about Homecoming?"
"Um," I say, "I kinda have but i haven't made a decision, yet."
"Oh ok," He said, "That's fine. I'm sorry if rushing you, I don't mean to."
"No, no," I say to him, "Your not rushing. I promise."
"I just," He starts, but then sighs.
"You just what?" I ask him.
He sighs, "I just kinda have my heart set on going with you."
"Going with me?" I ask, "To homecoming? Or in another term?"
He stays quite for a moment.
"Kinda both..." He mutters.
I feel my breathing hitch. Is he really trying to say he likes me?
"Oh." I say, unsure of what really to even say.
"I'm sorry," he says to me, "I'm sorry if this is awkward..."
"It's not awkward." I tell him, "Just say whatever you feel. No one can judge you for the way you feel."
'Yes they can,' I think to myself, 'most people do...'
"Well..." He starts and I could see his cheeks turn a slight shade of red, "Nams... Um..."
He sighs again, "Your like a Diamond. A diamond is beautiful. A diamond is valuable. And everyone wants it, but only one can have it. I want a diamond. And I found a rare one. But i feel like other people found the same diamond as I have and they want to take it as well."
My brain and voice weren't functioning too properly at this moment, so I just kinda say there in shock for a minute or so.
"I guess what I'm trying to say," Randy continued, "Is that... I like you... And I'm sorta afraid of someone taking you away."
I really couldn't believe he just said that. I mean I sorta figured out in the past couple weeks that Randy had feelings for me, but thinking it and actually hearing him say it were too different things.
'Well get excited!' I think to myself, 'This is what you've wanted.'
I should be excited, but it's like there's this feeling in my stomach won't let me.
"I'm sorry," He said after a minute or so, "I probably just weirded you out. I mean you might not even feel the same way."
"No Randy," I say to him, "It's not weird. As for feeling the same way... Um..."
'Just tell him how you feel,' I think to myself.
"I'm just sure," I say to him as he pulls into the school parking lot, "I mean I know feelings are there, but I'm not sure what to do with them."
"I completely understand," he says to me while parking.
"Don't say that," I tell him, "Because I don't completely understand myself... Its confusing."
"Naomi," he said and turned off the car and looked at me, "If you don't feel the same, then that's fine. You don't have to like me, just because I have feelings for you. I can learn to get over them."
"But I feel like I have feelings for you too," I say to him and we both got quite.
"You do?" He asked me after a minute or so, "Why didn't you tell me?"
'Because your not the one I have feelings for...' I think to myself.
"It's complicated..." I tell him.
"Naomi," he said to me, "You can tell me about anything. You know that, right? You can tell me about how you feel."
"I promise if I knew, I'd tell you..." I mumble to myself.
We stay quite for a couple more minutes.
"Let me make something a little more clear..." He mumbled.
"And what would that be?" I ask.
"How much I like you..." He said and leaned closer to me.
"How?" I say and I felt my breathing hitch again.
"Like this." He said then gently placed his lips on mine.
The kiss was soft and gentle. It's just like I imagined with him. It was just perfect
'But it's not Roman...' I think to myself and I want to curse the thought.
A couple seconds later he broke the kiss and I could see his cheeks were a little red. I could feel my face heating up as well.
"I..." He started then scratched the back of his head, "I'm sorry."
"No it's ok." I tell him,"Let's just... Take things slower, ok?"
He nods, "Yeah, we can do that."
I give him a small smile, "We should be getting in there. There probably wondering where we are."
He nods and gets out the car and so do I, "Yeah, let's go."
We walk through the school and to the cafeteria. But instead of me thinking of the kiss I just had with the guy I've always wanted, the only thing on my mind was the other guy I didn't want to fall for, but I found myself doing so anyway.
%^%^%^%^%^%^%^%^%^%^%^%
"What's wrong with you?" Roman asked for the six millionth time as the bell rang, releasing us from fifth period.
"Nothing." I say getting annoyed.
"There's something wrong," he said as he followed me down the hallway, "You haven't insulted me all day."
I roll my eyes, "Consider yourself lucky then."
He raised a eyebrow, "Seriously, what's wrong with you?"
"Nothing's wrong Roman." I say once again, "I'm just thinking."
"So your trying something new for a change." He says smirking at me and I glare at him. His smirk dropped.
"I was just trying to make a joke..." He said while rubbing the back of his neck.
I shake my head and continue to walk to the cafeteria.
It wasn't a lie. I had been thinking all day. About him and Randy, and I honestly didn't really feel like with either of them right now. Why? Cause I want Randy... But I want Roman too.
I need to narrow it down and maybe that'll help. Like why do I like Randy? Well he's nice, and he's funny and sweet. He cares about me and now I know that he likes me too...
Why do I like Roman? I have no idea, and that's what annoys me the most. I don't want to like him, like at all. I mean we always argue, we're both rude to each other, we disagree on everything... But literally one night, one night that was never suppose to happen. One night that turned into two times, makes me question everything.
"You should stop thinking," Roman said as we walked into the cafeteria and went through the lunch line, "You act different when you think."
I roll my eyes, "Well you act like you care about me when I do."
He rolls his eyes but then looks at me, "What are you thinking about?"
"A whole bunch of none-ya-business." I say as I grab from the lunch lady.
"Is it about me?" He asked while handing me a chocolate milk.
"Nope." I lie to him.
"Well maybe it should be," He said as we waited to pay for our food.
"Why?" I ask him, though I was honestly uninterested in listening to is most likely dumb excuse.
"So we could be even." He said to me as I let the lunch lady scan my ID card to pay for my food.
I raise a eyebrow, "Be even?"
He nods as he lets lunch lady scan his ID as well, "Yeah. We could be even. You think about me, I think about you. Bam. We're even."
I stop walking and turn around and look at him, "You think about me?"
He smirks, "Of course. Especially when I fell in the mood."
I glare at him then kept talking, "Your a prick."
'Add to the list of reason I hate Roman Reigns,' I think to myself.
I sit down and surprisingly I was the first one to the table today.
"Oh come on," Roman said with a laugh, "What else was I suppose to say?"
"You could not say anything," I say to him, and I could feel myself getting aggravated.
"It's not my fault I want to brag," he said while smirking at me, "You're good."
"Shut up Roman." I growl at him while sending him a look that could kill.
He stops smirking and a look of regret crossed his face, "Naomi, I didn't mean-"
"I said shut up!" I shout at him. I didn't need him talking. It only made me feel worse about myself and I honestly don't need that.
"Let's calm down you two," Nikki said as she sat down and so did Dean.
I groan and close my eyes then lay my head on the table as the rest of them come and sit at the table.
I feel someone move a strand of hair out of my face. I open my eyes and see Randy standing there looking at me worriedly.
"You ok?" He asks as he sits down.
'My damn, I'm tired of hearing that question.' I think to myself but nod to him anyways.
"So anyone actually want to talk about what the hell happened last night, or are we just gonna pretend it never happened... I'm good either way." AJ asked.
"I choose option number two!" Punk said.
Dean rolled his eyes, "There's not much to talk about... I mean obviously this guys has some serious issues. Maybe the cameras caught him."
"That what I was going to tell you guys," Nikki said, "Alicia has office aid first period and one of the things she's in charge of is the security footage. She checked it this morning."
"What is show?" Seth asked.
"She said it showed us walking down the hall," Nikki said, "And all the things happening, but when the lights went out it didn't show anything. Then the came back on it showed what we saw."
"Was the paint still on the lockers this morning?" I ask while lifting my head up.
Nikki shook her head, "It was gone. Alicia said the footage glitched and the lockers were back to normal."
"I really, really hate this." Punk said with a groan.
"Well I don't think anyone is too excited about it Punk," Dean said while running a hand through his hair.
"This guys doesn't necessarily target people does it?" Roman asked.
"I don't know," Hunter said, "But it be real stupid for the thing to target us."
"Let's just not think about it," Randy said to us, "It's for the best."
Dean nods, "I agree. Let's just talk about something else...like you guys are gonna whoop some ass tonight."
"You got that right," Randy said, "The Lanson Cougars have won a game this season. It should be a easy game."
"As long as we keep our heads in the game, we should come out on top." Hunter said.
"Don't get too cocky now," I hear Satan's Daughter say from somewhere, "You never know."
I groan and lay my head back on the table. I was not in the mood for her.
"Nope." I hear Nikki say, "I'm not dealing with this today Brie. Just leave."
"Awe," I hear Brie say, "Why not?"
'If only murder was legal...' I think to myself.
"Leave Brie," I hear Nikki say again, "It be for your own good."
"Listen up," I hear her say and I could imagine her her glaring at her sister, "I don't have to listen to anything you say, understood? This is America, is it not? And I think one of the rules the freedom to sit wherever you want."
"That not a rule, you idiot." I hear Paige say.
"Was I fucking talking to you?" Brie said loudly.
'Why the hell is she always talking to loud?' I think to myself, 'all she's trying to do is gain attention'
"I can talk loud too!" Paige shouted, "Are we talking like this now?! Seriously just shut up, please."
"You are so pathetic." I hear Brie say.
"That really didn't make any sense," I heard Seth say and I was surprised he actually said anything.
"Excuse me?" Brie said.
"Why would you call her pathetic after she only repeated what you did?" Seth said, "That's basically like calling yourself pathetic, which isn't necessarily a lie."
I heard 'ooo's' in the distance, meaning we had probably gained the attention of a lot of surrounding tables.
"That's some talk Seth," I heard Brie say loudly, "For someone who tried to make her Jealous with me. You sound pretty pathetic yourself."
"Yeah..." I heard Seth say, "But I only did what you suggested, meaning you only called your pathetic again. Which one again, it the truth. Call me a nerd if you'd like but It's simple logic Brianna. If you were smart maybe you'd know that."
I lift my head up and look at Seth in surprise. Everyone at our table was doing the same and surrounding tables were 'oooing' and watching us intensely. I look at Brie and see that she was basically seething with anger. I decide to lay my head back down on the table because as great as it is to see Seth tell off Brie, I didn't want to e apart of this right now.
"Wow," I heard Dean say, "It's about time you say something man."
"You might wanna watch you mouth Seth," I heard Brie day, "You obviously don't know what I can do."
"Oh and what will you do?" I hear Roman ask sounding serious, "Please tell us all what you would do to him. I really wanna know. Because if anything happens to him, I swear you'll regret it."
Brie laughs, "Oh, and what they'll hell are you gonna do about it?"
Roman laughs, but it was more of a angry laugh than a funny one, "Be glad your a girl and be glad I'm a gentleman and I respect women. Cause I promise you if you were a dude, I would have already beat your ass."
"That sounded like a threat, handsome." Brie said and I could imagine her smirking.
"Oh it wasn't a threat, baby girl," he said to her, "It was a promise."
"Can I help you out with that?" Nikki asks with a laugh.
"Can you mind your own business, freak?" Brie asks loudly.
"Freak?" Nikki asked with a laugh, "I've been called worse."
"Oh really?" Brie asks sarcastically, "And what would that be?"
"Your sister." I heard Nikki say and a whole bunch of 'ooo's' follow.
"Damn Nikki." AJ said with a laugh.
"You shut the hell up!" Brie shouted.
"What are you so mad for?" Stephanie asked.
"I think it's because she's not winning the argument." Hunter said with a laugh.
"I told you to leave," I hear Nikki say, "I told you leaving was for your own good, but you didn't want to listen to me."
"Might as well except the consequences, Brie." I hear Dean say.
"Does it feel good to have the tables turned on you?" I hear Randy ask.
"Oh so all of you are gonna jump on my case now?!" She shouted.
"We're not jumping on your case," I heard Paige said, "We're giving you a taste of your own medicine."
It was quite for a moment.
"Well not everyone at this table," I heard Brie say, "What's the matter Naomi?"
'I should hurt her for just putting my name in her mouth.' I think to myself but I don't say anything to her.
"She literally didn't even say anything to you Brie." I hear Paige say.
"Awe, what's wrong Naomi?" Brie asks, "Too tried from working at the strip club club last night?" A lot of people 'ooo'd' again.
I pick my head up and look at her in annoyance.
"Oh look," she said smirking at me, "She's up."
"Brie," I say annoyed, "Do me a favor and go shove a cactus up your cunt."
"Damn," Aj said while people 'ooo' again, "That hurt me just thinking about it."
"How the hell is that even suppose to work?" Dean said with a laugh.
"Well considering that she's been ran through by everybody and everything," I say staring right at Brie who was glaring at me, "It should be a pretty easy fit."
"You calling me a whore?" She asked almost in a threatening tone.
"Wouldn't be the first time." I tell her, "Won't be the last."
"You're a hypothetical little bitch." She said while death glaring me.
I roll my eyes, "Oh really? Bitch there ain't nothing hypocritical about me, so swerve."
"You wanna sit there and call me a whore? Your no better and you fucking know it! Little girl I will expose you." She said to me.
"Oh what you gone say?" I shout at her, "Anything you say done already been said, so take your little ass on somewhere before I beat it."
Brie glares at me, then smirks, "You know I think it's really cute. I think it's really cute that you think you aren't a whore. I mean think about it Naomi. You follow Randy around and you two act like you're dating, then behind closed doors you go and fuck Roman. Wow. Sounds pretty whoreish to me."
"What?" Randy asked.
"Leave now!" Nikki shouted.
Brie smirked, "Sure thing."
"You fucked with the wrong one Brie..." I mumbled to myself as I tried to keep myself together as she walked away, but I honestly wanted to break down.
It was quite for a long time after she left.
"Is it true?" I heard Randy say. I refused to look at anything but the table and I stay quite.
"Is it true Naomi?" He asks me again louder.
"Yes," I say barley above a whisper.
"So you tried to play me or something?" He asked harshly.
"Randy no-" I start be he cut me off.
"I tell exactly how I feel this morning, and you don't tell me that your fucking with him?!" He shouted.
"Chill the fuck out!" Roman shouted at him.
"Do you really want to start with me right now Reigns?" Randy asked him.
I shake my head and stand up. I felt like all eyes in the cafeteria were on me as I left the cafeteria.
'Just go outside,' I tell myself, 'You can cry there. Don't you dare cry in front of everyone.'
I walk outside and go to the front of the school and sit on a bench.
I wanted to kill that girl. I wanted to watch her suffer. She put my personal business out there and now everyone knows. The only thing I ever wanted to keep to myself...
"Naomi," I hear a voice say and I look up and see Roman coming towards me.
"Go away," I say as I wipe a tear away from my cheek.
"Come on, Naomi." He says just as the bell rings.
"I'm not going back in there," I say to him and wipe more tears away.
He sighs and stayed quite for a minute.
"Come with me," he tells me.
I look at him, "Why? Where are we going?"
"Just come with me." He said while grabbing my hand and helping me stand up.
He leads me out into the parking out and to his car.
He opens the back door and motions for me to get in.
"Where are you taking me?" I ask wiping away more tears that had fallen and get in the car.
"Nowhere." He tell me as he gets in the drivers seat and turns the car on. He turns on the air conditioning and then gets in the back seat with me.
"You can just relax." He tells me, "I do this a lot. Just don't think. We don't have to go back in there."
We stay quite for a while and the only thing I could think of is what happened at lunch.
"You alright?" He asked me.
I shake my head and close my eyes, I didn't want to see him anymore.
"No," I tell him and my voice cracks, "She told everyone. Everyone knows Roman... Everyone thinks I'm some kinda stupid whore, and that most likely because I am."
I felt more tears escape my eyes as I finally let a sob rack through my body.
I feel him grab me and brings me closer to him and wraps his arms around me.
"Don't you ever call yourself that again, do you understand me?" He tells me as I cry into his chest, "Your fucking beautiful. Don't let the bitch get in your head."
We stay like this for what seems like forever. I cry for what seems like forever and he never lets go of me.
After some time I finally calm down and lift up. I have a headache from all the crying and I feel tired as crap.
"Why are you doing this?" I ask him, "Why are you being nice to me?"
"Because I can," he said to me as he moved some hair out of my face.
"You're probably tired," he said as he moved me to a position where I was laying slightly ontop of him and he had his arms wrapped me, "You can sleep for a while, if you like."
I sniff and shift myself slightly, "What about you?"
"I'll be here when you wake up." He told me.
"You don't seem comfortable." I tell him. Roman wasn't a fairly small guy and the back seat wasn't that big.
He laughs, "I'll be fine. I promise. Just go to sleep."
I lean back and rest my head on his upper shoulder.
I feel his eyes on me but I don't change my position to look at him.
I feel him place a kiss on head as my eyes get heavier. I feel myself drifting into the most peaceful sleep I had had in a long time.
^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^
