Chapter 1:

*Beep*
*Beep*
*Beep*

"Ugh!" I moan, my alarm rattling in my ear. I wipe the sleep from my eyes and sit up, stretching out my arms.

Joys, my first day of senior year. It's going to be so fun..not.

I walk into into the bathroom and cringe at my reflection, I pick up my toothbrush and turn on the shower; stepping in once I've cleaned my teeth.

After I have washed my body and shaved, I step out of the shower and wrap a towel around my body. I walk out of the bathroom and open the wardrobe, picking out some ripped high waisted jeans, a thin white crop top and a white and green jacket.



I take out a brush and comb through my long, brown hair; deciding to keep it down. I apply a little eyeliner afterwards so my green eyes stand out, and make sure that they aren't smudged. I add a thin layer of pink lipstick to finish off the look, I have one final look in the mirror and smile in satisfaction.

I pick up my black satchel and white converse, walking out of the door, and closing it with my foot.

Yay, time for hell..

"Madam Victoria, would you like some breakfast?" Gloria, my house caretaker asks.

"No thanks, I'm late already." I rush down the steps, looking down at her as we spoke.

"But your mother said that you can't leave without breakfast." Gloria's worried tone makes me laugh lightly in irritation.

"Tell her that I don't give a fuck about what she says." I take a final look at my outfit in the mirror, and quickly swap my jacket with a leather one, deciding that it looks better with my outfit.

"But-" Gloria starts but I grab my keys and walk out before she can finish.

I wave goodbye to her and close the door on my way out, clicking my keys and getting into my matte black BMW.


I rev the engine and smile as it makes a satisfying purr, heading out of the driveway and in the direction of school.

As I enter 'Katherine High' I mentally groan, oh how I love to serve in hell.

I park my car in the front and step out, heading straight to my locker. I grab my math book and make my way to class, taking my usual seat at the back.

"Welcome students to another year." Mr.Jacobs, my math teacher says once all the students are in.

"Today we have a new student joining us, he is called Nathaniel Elington. Now, please find a seat and we can begin class Mr.Elington."

My eyes widen in shock as soon as the name slips from sirs lips, are you serious?

The Nathaniel Elington, the Nathaniel that I've had a past with; the Nathaniel who once meant the world to me from my summer in New York two years ago.

I scan the classroom and start to panic once I see no more empty seats in the room.

Crap! Crap, no! Please, no! Please don't sit next to me, sit on the damn floor for all I care; just not with me.

He sits down beside me and turns his head to my direction and smirks, asshole.

"Oh, fuck no.." I mutter under my breath.

There is a reason I sit in the back of the class, because I know that no one else would sit next to me. But now Nathaniel Elington, who once meant the world to me, is now sitting next to me. Oh how did I get so lucky?

"Something wrong, beautiful?" He smirks.

I quickly scan his features, irked at the fact that he is still charming, with his brown hair and eyes, and chiselled features anyone would fall to his feat in an instant. Oh those eyes, the ones I thought I'd never see again.

"Yeah, you called me beautiful." I say coolly, glaring at him.

"Please, you and I both know that you have those girly butterflies in your stomach when I say that, beautiful." He replies smugly.

I guess a perk of sitting at the back of the class is that the teacher never really notices what you doing, so Mr.Jacobs has no idea that we are speaking. Allowing us a sense of privacy.

"Someone's ego is too big for their own good." I retort, breathing out a laugh.

He chuckles, "So, what's your name by the way?"

"A name." I reply flatly, hiding my shock. Is he pretending to not know me? Or has he honestly forgotten who I am?

"My name is Nate, and you are?" 

I roll my eyes at his comment, of course I know your what you name is; so I glare at him in return.

"Hint hint, this is the part where you say what your name is." He whispers.

"Victoria. My name is Victoria." Maybe he has forgotten me?

"So I'm guessing your friends call you Vic," he squinted,"or is it Tori?"

"I don't have a nickname, all my friends call me Victoria." I say.

"Oh and I do intend on passing senior year by the way, and that requires paying attention you know." He grins at my response and looks at the board.

I really don't want to talk to him, as much as I deny it, the aching feeling inside my chest multiplies each time he openly showed that he had forgotten me.

I honestly don't pay attention at all in class, I just lied to Nate so he would stop annoying me. All My mind would allow me to think about is our summer together, and how he ha seemed to have forgotten it all.

Each lesson rolled by quickly as my mind was just focused on Nate; no matter how hard I tried I couldn't get him out of my mind.

*dinggggg*

The lunch bells obnoxiously rings in my ear, so I pack up my books and head to my locker. I place all of my books inside it and walk to my usual table with my friends outside.

"Oh My God!" My best friend Ashley screams as soon I sit next to her.

"Have you not seen the new hotties yet?" She yells in my ear and I stare at the blonde, blue eyed girl next to me as if she was a mental patient. She sure acts like one..

"I know right! Like oh my god I'm dying!" I reply sarcastically.

"You're always so mean, Victoria." She childishly sticks her tongue out at me.

"That's why you love me, Ash." I smirk at her.

"Unfortunately, yes." She dramatically sighs.

"Did I hear someone say something about hotties?" My other friend Robert joins in.

"Yeah, there's these two new guys from New York that have joined today." Ashley spreads the news excitedly.

"What's their names?" Rob asks.

"Nate and Jessie." She says like she is in a trance. Really?

Oh and Robert is gay if you hadn't figured that out yet.

"Remind me why I'm friends with you idiots?" I laugh.

I take a bite out of my salad and feel someone's arms wrap around my waist.

"Well, this can only be douche bag Gerald." I grin.

"The one and only!" He smirks, sitting next to me and wrapping his arm around my waist.

Ladies and gentlemen, this is Gerald Iver. Katherine High's hot bad boy who's also captain of the soccer team, and also a really good friend of mine.

We have like a flirty kind of relationship. We've been friends since middle school and since last year we started flirting around, it's just some fun.

"Oh no..Look who unfortunately joined us!" Ashley sourly says.

"He is my friend, so he can sit here if he wants to you know." I laugh, Ashley hates Gerald, she thinks he's a conceited jerk who thinks he's the shit.

"Friend, or boyfriend?" Robert raises a brow and asks, his perspective on Gerald is pretty neutral.

"More like friends with benefits!" Ashley scoffs, yeah; she really hates our friendship.

"So you guys know that I usually have the start of the year bonfire, right?" Gerald starts.

"Pretty much the whole school knows, dumbass!" I say, matter-of-factly.

"So all you guys are invited, see you there, especially you beautiful!" He directs his last sentence to me, blowing me a kiss.

"Oh and blondy, don't feel special because the whole school is invited." He winks at her while she returns a deathly glare.

Robert and I laugh at the two of their childish behaviour, and smile once Gerald comes up to me again.

"Not funny guys!" Ashley yells in a high pitch voice.

"See you tonight," he kissed my cheek, "Oh and make sure you wear the sexiest dress you have." He whispers in my ear and walks away smirking.

"So are you guys coming?" I ask my friends.

"Definitely girl!" Robert replies enthusiastically.

"I don't know, maybe not." Ashley groans.

"What? Why not Ash?" I ask, turning my attention to her.

"Because that ass face is a jerk!" She spits bitterly.

"Oh come on, those two new hotties will be there." I wink, trying to convince her.

"Okay, fine I'll be there!" She laughs, throwing her arms in the air in defence.

...

"I'll pick you up at 8." I remind her as the final bell goes off, beginning to walk to my car as she heads in the other direction.

I walk out onto the carpark but get stopped by a figure, I mumble an apology and walk the other side of them, but they block that path too; I Cary this out about three times until I look up in frustration.

"Oh no..Not you again!" I moan.

"Hello to you too, Sunshine." Nate says with a smirk.

My heart starts racing, each thud becoming so loud that I'm terrified that he is able to hear it also.

"My name is Victoria," I say coolly, "now move out of my way!" He moves and I start making my way to my car.

"So are you going to the party tonight?" I look to see that Nate is following me, I roll my eyes at his nosiness.

"I happen to know the host really well, so yes, of course I'll be there." By the time the words leave my mouth, I have reached my car already.

"I'll see you there then, sunshine!" He grins, walking away.

I stare at the back of his retreating figure, and can only think of one thing. Fuck him and his nickname!
