Whocares101: Royce..? Royce Banks Royce?..
Moviegirl16: Yea..
Whocares101: You can't trust a guy like him.
Moviegirl16: He is such a nice guy. He has been nothing but sweet to me. I have a date this Saturday.
Whocares101: You can't be serious! He is a pompous asshole. You can't be serious...
Moviegirl16: Yes I am. Jeeze, what's your problem? You don't even know him.
Whocares101: Fine. Just be careful. He is bad news.
Moviegirl16: Whatever.
I shut my laptop and let out a huff. How dare he say something like that. Ugh. He doesn't even know him. Royce is so different. Whatever. Why should I even let something he says rile me up so much. I'm going on that date, and I'll be out with such a wonderful guy. That'll show him.
I got up and plopped down on my bed. My eyelashes slowly start to flutter, and soon they are closed shut as I fall asleep.
XxXxXxXx
I push myself up onto my elbows as I wake up suddenly. Sweat starts to drip down the side of my forehead, and I brush it away with the back of my hand. I roll my body out of the bed, and make my way to my computer. 4:25 am..great. I plop down onto my chair, and rub the sleep out of my eyes. My fingers ghostly run over the keyboard as I log in.

I smile lightly and send him a message.
Moviegirl16: Hey there.
Whocares101: What are you doing up?
Moviegirl16: I woke up, and I can't sleep.
Whocares101: Oh I'm sorry..
Whocares101: and well, I'm sorry about before. I just..I just don't want you to get hurt.
A blush rose to my cheeks lightly, and I rub at them to stop them from getting any worse.
Moviegirl16: Awh. Well, I really appreciate your concern, and I'm sorry as well. But I'll be fine. Really.
Whocares101: Well okay. As long as you are ok. Well..I think we both need to go to bed.
Moviegirl16: Yea, I think you're right.
Whocares101: Well, goodnight beautiful.
Moviegirl16: Goodnight :)
I just my laptop yet again, and stretch my arms up over my head. A yawn escapes my mouth as I shuffle my way back into bed. A small smile rests on my lips as I cuddle under my blankets thinking of my mystery man.
XxXxX
I make my way down the hall way at school zombie like. I try to rub my eyes from the sleepiness I still have from last night. I need to get more sleep tonight. I have my date tomorrow too. Speaking of Royce, I haven't seen him today much. I wonder where he went. I'm sure he would be here today. He did tell me he would see me later. I'm sure he is here.
I walk into Mr. Foley's class, and he yet again is in a pastel colored button up shirt. I mean, I'm sure there is nothing wrong with wanting to look fashionable..
As I make my way quickly to my desk, I keep my head down out of sight. I took not even 5 steps, and I run into a large wall, my books falling everywhere. The wall makes a sigh sound. Wait, walls don't make sounds. Glancing up, I see Derek leaning down about to pick up my books and paper. I blush lightly, helping as well, trying as quickly as possible to get out of this situation. I stand up in a rush, and end up colliding my forehead with Derek's who is still leaning down to help me. He reaches his hand up to rub his forehead lightly
" I-I I am so sorry. I am such a cluts. I did not mean to do that," I reach up and touch his forehead without any thought. "Is your head okay?"
He looks down at me, looking away quickly. "Yea." He grunts out to me. I let out a sigh of relief.
I grab the remaining papers from his hands, and make my way to my desk. A figure sits in the seat beside me, and I look over to see Derek. I give him a questioning look, my eyebrows raising slightly. My only response from him was a gesture towards the teacher. Oh. I guess he told us to sit with out partners. As class begins, we scoot our desks slightly closer, and begin working on our project. As time progresses in our mutual silence, he finally speaks up.
" So I think we need to spend more time out of school working on this all. Would you uhm, want to come to my house after school to work on it?" He asks with almost a nervous tone.
My eyes widen in shock. Is he asking me to go to his house?
"It's a simple yes or no, and if you want a good grade on this project, I would say yes." He grumbles at me, looking anywhere but me.
I nod lightly and we work until the bell. As I'm packing my things to leave class, Derek hands me a note with his number on it. Text me when school ends, and we can head over to my house. I nod in return, brushing my hair behind one of my ears.
Walking over to my locker, Liz and Tori are already standing by it, waiting for me. I acknowledge them with a small wave.
" Hey guys," I say as I start to open my locker, tossing in the things I don't need, and taking out anything thing that I do.
" So what is it I hear about you and new boy having a hot date tomorrow?" Tori asks wiggling her eyebrows knowingly.
A soft blush runs to my cheeks,"It's just a small date. It's not that big of a deal." I brush her question off as if it were nothing. Liz sequels and jumps, her arms flailing.
" I'm so happy for you! Your first date!" She smiles more. The warning bell soon goes off.
"Be safe!" Tori says as she walks away winking at me. I roll my eyes and start to walk the opposite way, while Liz follows shortly behind Tori. I quickly start making my way to my last few classes of the day.
I enter into my science class, and there sitting right beside my desk is none other than Royce Banks. He had this gorgeous smile spread across his flawless complexion. He could make anyone swoon. I took my seat, and tried looking everywhere but the gorgeous god sitting beside me. We didn't speak a word to each other the whole class. Small glances were thrown back and forth, as well as smiles. As the bell rings, we all gather our things, and make our way out of the school. As I am about to walk out of the class, someone grabs my elbow drawing my attention.
"So, about that date tomorrow cutie, I think a movie and ice cream would be a great start. How does that sound?" I smiled at the sound of going to see a movie. I turned towards Royce, and smiled at him.
" Sounds good." I smiled and a soft blush ran to my cheeks, as we walk together down the hallway.
"Do you want me to take you home again today?" He asked with concern, with a willing look on his face.
"Oh uhm, no. I'm actually going to Derek Souza's house today. We have this stupid project.." I took a small glance at him to see his eyebrows furrow together.
"Derek SOUZA? That loser? Wow. I didn't think he's the kind of person you would want to hang out with." My eyes widen as I think of what to say.
"N..No..It's not like that," I try to say, but my stutter comes out very predominant, showing my nervousness. A large figure stalks past us, and I see a familiar head of dark hair. I let out a sigh. "well I've got to go," I'll see you tomorrow. At 6?" I quicken my pace to start catching up with Derek.
Royce smiles and nods. I give one last wave good bye, and quickly start walking faster to catch up to him. I hope he didn't hear that..
As I come up beside him I quicken my pace to match his, and we start to come up to a old rusted looking yellow truck. He unlocks it before we get right up to it, and he slides right in. I follow suit, and sit in the passenger seat.
"S..so uhm, How was your day," I respond, attempting to make some sort of conversation. I look over to Derek as his eyes are concentrating thoroughly on the road in front of him.
He sighs softly and looks over at me, sincerely, "Chloe.."
I here the sounds tire wheels screeching on the road. A familiar car takes an illegal turn as we are heading straight, and all I see are headlights from the car. I feel the warmth of Derek's hand wrap around me, holding me back against the seat for protection. I look towards Derek, a hint of fear in his eyes as he looks back at me, as the car makes impact. I hear glass break on my side of the truck, and I soon black out.
