While in 6th hour I stared at the clock counting each tick until I heard the bell ring. I gathered my books and jacket then rushed out the door passing everyone while not looking up for the slightest thing. I looked for the number 77 on a bus, but couldn't find it. I became frantic when I heard the teacher scream "Hurry everyone get on your bus!!" I desperately looked for the number 77, until I felt a hand on my shoulder. I turned around and noticed that it was Norris. "Are you lost, little kitten" I felt my cheeks heat up from the embarrassment. "I-um I'm looking for bus 77 but I can't find it I said looking at the buses that were starting to leave and sighed. "Never mind I'll just call my mom to get m,e" I said while pulling out my phone "Why? I'll just give you a ride" Norris said while giving me a smirk, "but how, you don't have a car plus even if you did, you rode the bus this morning" I said looking confused. "A,h that's cause Flower has my car she's gonna pick m- us up". "I don't want to be any trouble," I said looking down, "don't worry you won't be and as a matter of fact she's here right no,w " Norris said as a black Range Rover pulled up. A small frame stepped out of the car. She was absolutely stunning she had a nice frame, pink hair,  blue eyes, tanned skin(which she tans every day)and a totally good fashion sense judging by her outfit. When I extended my hand and gave my name, all she did was give me a evil glare which sent awareness down my spine, I also felt a hint of bloodlust from her like she wanted to rip out my spine and feed it to her dogs. I snapped out of my little moment when I heard Norris speak "This is Flower. Flower this is Nika, my friend" "it's nice to meet you Flower..." I still felt the bad vibe so I gave her a compliment. "I see why they call you Flower, your really pretty, like a flower". "Hmph!" was all I got, not thank you or anything just a big fat Hmhp..Wow she's more of a bitch then Christa I thought. She finally spoke but they were not kind words. "Are you his next little whore?" Flower said crossing her arms and glaring at me. "Um no I'm just his acquaintance" I said back to her while adjusting my backpack. "Well he's mine" Flower said while getting in the passenger seat. I didn't say anything instead I just got in the car. "So where in Michigan are you from Nika?" Norris said from the driver seat. "Ann Arbor" I said looking down. "Ann Arbor, that's cool" Norris said while smiling. I heard a heavy, irritated sigh come from Flower, I knew she meant shut up talking to him, and that's exactly what I did because I being me didn't want to anger her any further. We pulled in front of my house. I hopped out the back seat and walked to the driver side. "Thank you," I said to Norris with a big smile, "No problem, anytime," Norris said with a grin, he then slides me a piece of paper. I didn't open it until I got inside. The paper read "text me at 777-994-7393". I just smiled at the paper.

I texted the number "what is it, why did you give me your number" I texted timidly. I waited eagerly for a response but got nothing. I eventually got bored and less eager for his response and got up to get something to drink, when I returned I had 3 new messages from Norris. One said "hey cutie," another said "wyd?" The last message said "We should get together this weekend" I ran to my calendar to see the date...This weekend, that's one day away I thought while heating up and getting excited. I tried to calm my racing heart because this was the first time I went out with a guy, hell anyone. I went to bed extremely happy, thinking about the days to come.

On Saturday morning I woke up earlier than usual. I gracefully looked at my clock, 7:30 am is what it read. I yawned, rolled on to my back and stared at my ceiling for what seemed like hours. *Beep beep beep* my phone rang "Hello" I spoke with my morning voice, which sounded coarse and manly "Hello Nika, this is Norris, can I pick you up around 10:00 am?" Norris spoke calmly through the phone. "Yes that's fine" I replied "ah ok then, be ready at 10:00 am," Norris said over the phone. I nodded to myself trying to give myself the motivation to get up. "Sounds good," I said over the phone with a wide grin on my face. "Babe who is that" I heard a female voice over the phone,"It's Nika, remember you met her yesterday, we're going out today" My cheeks heated up at his words, but I knew what he meant and I was now certain that it was Flower "Oo oo oo I'll tag along to" Flower said with eagerness in her voice."No it's just gonna be me and Nika" Norris said firmly to Flower, I could feel her anger through the phone and I knew she didn't like me "Um ok I'll call you when I'm there" "ok" I slowly responded *Click* the phone hung up. I sat up and looked at the clock that read 9:30 am. I blinked multiple times at the clock before I realized the time "Oh shit" I said in an outburst. I ran into the bathroom, brushed my teeth, brushed my hair and put it into a sloppy bun. I then ran into my closet and stared at the bundle of a mess, ugh what to wear I thought while tapping my chin and staring at the pile, I pulled out my phone and looked at the time and weather. 9:49 am, 78 degrees with an 85% chance of rain. Wow I thought, I grabbed my jacket, slipped into my jogging suit and sat on my couch. *Beep Beep* I looked out the window a saw the same black Range Rover from the school courtyard. I felt a knot in my stomach, and a bad feeling in my gut, but I ignored it.
