"And then we turned around and saw the whole class standing there clapping. After that Ms. V told us we got into the talent show." I explained what happened to Kay, Han, and Chris during lunch. Des and Chris were having lunch with us in the cafeteria.
"So you two are in the talent show?" Han asked.
"We really couldn't say no to her after the proud look she was giving us." Des piped in.
"Wow! That's amazing. I guess Han and me are gonna have to go this year to support you two." Kay laughed.
"Yeah you better." I jokingly threated.
"Hello everyone." I turned to look at a petite, dark brown haired girl smiling at all of us.
"Hey Nikki, what are you doing here? Don't you have class?" Des asked her.
"It was just study hall and the teacher fell asleep again, so I skipped out." She explained as she sat between Chris and Des, and across from me.
"Nikki, you shouldn't be skipping." Chris scorned her.
"Grow a backbone Christopher. Do something bad for once in your life." She said winking at him. He just grumbled at her.
"Aren't you going to introduce us Dessy?" She turned to Des, and then looked at Kay, Han and me, who were on the other side of the table.
"Of course Nicole. Guys this is my friend Nikki. Nikki meet Kayden, Hannah, and Adeline." He said point at us when he said our names.
"Nice to meet you guys. I'm Dessy BEST friend." She playfully glared at him.
"Yeah my best friend." He smiled at her. Something in the bottom of my stomach ached, but I ignored it.
"Nice to meet you Nicole." I said shaking her hand.
"Call me Nikki and nice to me you to Adeline. I've heard a lot about you." She smirked.
"Call me Addie. And good things I hope." I joked.
"Okay and yes very good things."
"Shoot I forgot I had meet Mrs. Eastwood about the English project." Kay said getting up quickly.
"I'll walk you there." Chris replied getting up too.
"Okay. Bye guys. Nice to meet you Nikki." Kay said to everyone.
"You too Kayden." She smiled.
"I need to tell you something later. I'll tell you on the drive home." He whispered in my ear as he kissed my cheek and left.
"Weird boy." I laughed.
"What's up with his black eye?" Nikki asked looking where the boys had just exited.
"He got beat up downtown." I said automatically.
"Poor guy! How come?"
"He's gay."
"Well that's no reason to hurt another person. Stupid ignorant people." She replied scowling.
