Chapter One

First day of my senior year, fun. Im so excited to get this year over will so I wont ever have to see these superficial, stuck-up, spoiled assholes ever again. Ok, now, Im not saying Im not spoiled, because I am. But, I dont look down on people and judge them because their car doesnt cost at least $20,000.

I clicked the alarm button for my 2000 Firebird Trans Am, convertible. Yes, spoiled, I know.

"Marissa!" I heard my "best friend" bellow from across the parking lot. I rolled my eyes as I sensed Veronica coming up.

"Hey," I smiled fakely.

"Hi, uh, I am so mad at my dad," she whined.

"Why now? He wouldnt buy you your own house?" I said sarcastically.

"No, I hate my stupid car. The things a piece of junk and when I asked for the new Porshe 911, he refused," she rolled her eyes.

"You have a Mercedes Benz," I said annoyed, looking at her in disbelief.

"Yeah, I know," she said.

"Whatever, I'll see you later," I said and walked off into my homeroom.

I looked around the classroom and didnt see anyone I was too familiar with. I saw a cute blonde boy sitting down in the back of the room. He looked tall and his short blonde hair was adorable.

I walked up to him and smiled, "Mind if I sit here?"

He looked up and smiled at me, his blonde hair falling into his eyes.

"Sure."

I sat down and waited patiently for class to begin.

"Ok, students. Come get your schedules," the teacher called from her desk. Lazy ass, get up and give it to us. I sighed at my thought, I was being just as lazy. I got up and walked up to her desk behind everyone else.

"Name," she commanded.

"Marissa Curtis," I told her.

"Here," she said handing me the schedule. I looked down and studied it as I walked back to my seat.

"So, what classes do you have?" Nick asked looking over at me.

"Physics, Calculas, Newspaper, and English 4 Honors, you?" I asked looking up at him. He was staring at me. Wow, he had beautiful eyes.

The same, except, no Newspaper, I am an Office Assistant," he smiled.

"That's cool. Maybe we could sit together," I suggested.

"Yeah, that'd be cool. I dont know anyone here," he laughed.

"Oh, well, Im Marissa," I said holding out my hand.

"Nick."

"Did you just move here?" I asked, curious.

"No, not really," he laughed.

"Oh," I said confused. I didnt ask anything more about that, figuring if he wanted to tell me, he would.

"Well, we'll probably have the same lunch, we can eat together, if you want," I smiled.

"That'd be cool," he smiled, looking down.

Just then, the bell rang and Nick and got up.

"Come on, if you want, I'll walk with you to class," he smiled.

"Aww, thanks," I grinned.

We walked out of class and started down the halls.

"So, where do you plan on college?" I asked curious.

"Uh, some performing arts college, if I go," he shrugged, "you?"

"Stanford," I shrugged.

"Wow, thats a really good college, what'll be your major?" he asked interested.

"Law," I rolled my eyes.

That's my father's big plan. Nothing less than the best. All three of my older brothers went to Stanford and are now practicing law, and Im expected to do it as well. Although, that's not what I want. I want to be a teacher. I know, it doesnt make a lot of money or anything, but Id rather make a difference in someone's life than ruin someone's life, you know?

"You dont seem so happy about that," Nick said.

"Yeah, well, I dont want anything to do with law," I sighed.

"Than why are you doing it?" he asked.

"Because my father insists upon it," I answered.

"Oh, I see," he said as we walked into a classroom.

He took a seat and I was right next to him.

"So, what do you really want to do?" he asked smiling.

"I wanna be a teacher," I answered.

"That's cool," he said.

"Yeah, well what about you? What do you want to do with your life?" I asked.

He laughed nervously and then the teacher clapped his hands to get everyone's attention.

"Ok, I want everyone to get a partner," he began.

"I am so sorry Im late!" Veronica rushed into the classroom.

"Marissa!" she shreiked.

"Hi," I rolled my eyes and looked away, embarrassed.

"Ok, anyways. I want everyone to find a partner and move to the lab tables in the back," he announced.

"Wanna be my partner?" Nick asked smiling.

"Id be honored."

"Marissa!" Veronica said looking at me, hurt.

"Sorry, Nick asked first," I shrugged.

"Do you even know him?" she glared at Nick.

"What does it matter?" I shot back.

"Whatever," she growled.

Nick and I stood up and walked to the back of the room with the rest of the class.
