Nicole's POV
The week went by really fast. The girls and I have became really close. I've been liking Sydney. I really miss Liz and Lucas though. I got out of bed and got dressed in dark red skinny jeans, an all time low shirt and my black vans. Daniella asked if I wanted to go to Starbucks with and of course, I said yes. I grabbed my penny board, my purse with my sunnies and house keys.
I shut the door and locked it before making my way to Starbucks on my penny board.
When I got there I ordered and walked over to sit with Dani.
"Hey what up" I say as I sit down. "Nothing, I'm just bored." I nodded understandingly.
"Nicole!" I cashier shouted. I got up. "I'll be right back." I told Dani. I walked over to the cashier and grabbed my drink. When I turned around I saw Dani was talking to a guy that I recognized for some reason. I have a bad feeling though.
"Hey Dani who's this?"
"Oh, Nicole, this is Jeremy." I looked up to meet familiar green orbs that I once fell in love with. Then he broke my heart. I felt my eyes tearing up. I started backing away slowly.
"Niki?" He questioned
"Jeremy" I said sadly.
"You know each Other?" Asked Dani. I nodded and bolted to the door. Once outside, I looked around and started sprinting to nowhere in particular. I heard my name being called multiple times, nut I ignored them. Tears are already streaming done my face. When I was tired of running I stopped and sat on a bench. My phone was beeping constantly so I turned it off. I held my head in my hands while I cried. I heard footsteps coming closer and closer.
"Nicole? What are you doing out here all alone?" I looked up to see Trevor. I shrugged and he sat beside me. I cried into his shoulder. He was saying 'it's okay' and stuff like that.
After I was done sobbing, my crying turned into a steady whimper. Trevor took my home about an hour ago. I can't believe I just ran into him.
A few hours later
From Dani
Are you ok? Who was that guy? How do you know him? Why were you tearing up?
To Dani
No I'm not ok. That was Jeremy Hunt. He is my ex. I was tearing up because he broke my heart.
From Dani
Oh really, oh I'm so sorry. I'm coming over. You have to tell me what happened. See ya in 5! Xx
I sighed. Dani only lived like ten minutes away walking distance.but she most likely driving. I decided that the five minutes I had before she gets here is enough to clean myself up a bit. I got up from my bed and headed to the bathroom. I looked in the mirror and I saw that my hair was really messy and tangled, my eyes were red and puffy and my face in general was pale. I brushed my hair and washed my face. My mascara was running soo bad. After I washed my face I put foundation and concealer on to cover my red puffy eyes. I applied mascara and bam! I don't look as bad now.
There was a knock at the door and I ran down the stairs to open it. Dani appeared all emily and happy, her normal self. I opened the door wider to let her in. She walked in and straight to my room. I closed the door and followed.
She sat on my bed and looked at me. I sighed and sat on my bed with her. Time to do some explaining.
"Ok, um, Jeremy and I used to date..... And we were very much in love.... Then I came across pictures or him kissing other girls, and rumours about him cheating on me. I didn't want to believe them....... One day I..I went over to his house because I was bored a..an..d I heard things I didn't want to hear. When I got to his room I....I..found him with another girl...in his bed. I ran out crying. I haven't seen him since... And that was like, three years ago." I sputtered out. I stared at the wall in front of me the whole time. Tears threatened to spill, but I didn't let them. I shouldn't be crying over this. I mean it happened three years ago. Dani hugged me, and I smiled knowing she's my best friend and always will be. " I'm so, sorry Nik." She apologized. I shook my head and said " it's not your fault."
*****
The next day me, Dani, Blake and Kat were in the mall shopping. Duh.
I came across the music store I was at when I first met Trevor.
"Hey can we go in the Region?" I asked them all. They all nodded and we headed over there. I went straight to the guitars. Everyone looked at my weirdly. I grabbed a guitar and started strumming.
"Hey guys I'm going to the drums." Dani told us. She headed of and I kept strumming. Kat and Blake went somewhere else. Then I heard a bass. It really good too. I look up to see Blake rocking out the bass in the corner of the store. I had an amazing idea. I've always wanted to be in a band.
" GUYS, GUYS!!!GUYS!! OMG!!! I have an idea!!!" I said excitedly. Their heads all shot up to look at me. I smirked. "We should make a band." I said slowly. We all looked at each other. "Oooooh yah we should!!" Squealed Blake. The rest just nodded.
" We need instruments." Kat said. I looked at her with a 'are you kidding me' look.
" oh...... Right" we all laughed.
" I have guitars at home soooo I don't need any. And don't forget to get acoustic and electric." I informed them
