Kiss Me Again by CLom (best books to read in life .TXT) 📕

I wake up to the blaring noise of my alarm clock right in my ear. I roll over and hit the top of it, in the hope that I hit a button that would shut it off. It turns out that I didn't so I had to actually sit up and switch the alarm from On

to Off

.
I get up and walk over to my too big of a closet, and pick out something to wear for the first day of school. I'm not like those girls that have something planned for this day a week in advance. So I grab dark demin cut off short shorts, my blue/green loose off-the-shoulder shirt, underwear and my bra and head over to the bathroom to shower.
After I'm done cleansing myself I let the warm water fall on my head and run down my body just for the relaxing feeling. Then I reaslize I actually have to be somewhere in a half hour so I jump out, put my hair in a towel and get dressed.
When I'm done with my make up, which is really some eyeliner, eyeshadow, and mascara, I take my damp blonde hair out of the towel and blow dry it straight. Then I touch it up with my straightener and when I'm done it's about half way down my back. To dress up the outfit a little more I take one of my many necklaces and put it on while I go down the stairs for breakfast.
I go over to the fridge to see what fruit we have and I see a note on the door from my parents.

Had an early meeting this morning, there's some pineapple for you on the second shelf. Have a great first day! Love you!

love,
Mom and Dad

That's the 4th early meeting this week, and it's only Wednesday! Oh well, I'm not complaining too much. I'm happy I don't have those nosey parents that always want to be in my business. I'm usually busy anyway.
I look at the clock and it says 7:39. I still have some time before the 7:45 bus arrives so I go brush my teeth, put on my black Toms, grab my school stuff and head out the door. You'd think going into my senior year I would be driving myself to school by now, but no. I don't have a car. With all of the money that my parents have they still haven't found the need to buy me my own car so that I wouldn't have to take the stupid bus anymore. Hopefully for my 18th birthday that's coming up September 7th I'll finally get my own car. A girl can dream.
As I wait at the bus stop I see some unfamiliar faces walking towards me. They look like some incoming freshmen so I decided to be friendly this morning and introduce myself.
"Hi I'm Nicole but you guys can call me Nikki. Are you students at Valent High School?"
A girl that looks like a younger version of me answered in the sweetest voice ever "Yeah! We're some of the new freshmen this year. What year are you?"
"I'm a senior. So I'll tell you from experience, don't pick a lunch table in the middle of the lunch room because there will be at the LEAST 2 food fights this year and you don't want to be stuck in the middle of one of those." I say with a kind smile.
"We'll remember that. Thank you!" She says back cheerfully.
"No problem."
I turn around to see the bus pulling up and the doors fly open right in front of me. I step into the bus and say hello to the bus driver, who is different from last year. But they change every year so that's not a big deal. Then I search for my usual window seat in the second row from the back. I sit down and take out my phone and earbuds and play some music for the ride.
After a couple stops we finally pull up to the Valent. This place has been my home for the past 3 years. From tennis, to late rehearsals for the play/musical, to cheerleading, and finally attending every home game for football, basketball, and baseball, it's been great!
Right when I arrive I go straight to the gym for our first-day-of-school assembly. As I walk past small crowds of people I hear a couple whistles and hollers coming from the football team towards the back of the bleachers. I ignore them and go straight to the spot where me and Anna planned to meet for the assembly so we can sit by each other.
One second I'm sitting alone, spacing out, and another Anna is sitting right next to me filing her nails waiting for me to notice that she's there.
"Anna! Oh my gosh! How long have you been sitting there??"
She laughs. "Maybe a minute or two but you were too spacey to notice." she says with a smirk.
I give her one of the biggest hugs and say "I'm sorry! But Oh man! I haven't seen you in two weeks!! how was florida!? Nice tan" I nudge her playfully, "Any summer romances?!"
"Give or take a few", she says jokingly, "I did meet this one guy and he was pretty cool. Nothing to throw my crazy single senior year away on though!"
I laugh "Exactly! Wow can you believe that we're seniors!? This is crazy!! We're going to have so much fun!"
Right as I say that a loud piercing sound comes from the speakers and everybody quiets down. Our principle comes out with a microphone in her hand and begins the assembly with
"Welcome back everyone! Get ready for another amazing and exciting year here at Valent!"
Oh I've been ready.

"Can I see your schedule to check if we have anything this year!?"
"We probably don't have much, but sure."
She rips the paper out of my hands and scans it intensely. Anna squeals and hands it back to me with a smirk on her face.
"We have English, Lunch, AND P.E. together! how lucky is that!? I thought I was going to have to go through P.E. alone this year!"
I laugh and nudge her with my elbow, "You wouldn't be alone, you are so good at just going up to people and introducing yourself. You wouldv'e been fine."
She rolls her eyes and says "Well I guess I'm off to AP Chem. See you in English!"
I give her a little wave and head in the opposite direction to Calculus.
When I walk in I see the room is only half full so I decide to pick a good seat now. As I lay my binder down on the desk someone taps me on the shoulder. I turn around to see a preppy brounette with a pony tail and an argyle sweater on. Classic.
"Hi! I'm Samantha and I just transferred here from New York. Is this Calculus or did the last person I ask give me the wrong room because they didn't seem sure at all."
"No that person was right. This is Calculus, I'm Nikki." and I reach out to shake her hand. She takes my hand and gives it a good shake and says, "Thank you! You're so nice you know that?"
I laugh a little, "Thanks, I try I guess. Some people wouldn't agree."
"Well who needs them then." And just then the bell rings signaling us to take our seats. "I'll see you around then?" She asks.
"Yeah. Sure." I say with a smile before I sit down.
Classes always go by fast the first day back. This day is always the same. Teachers tell us what the goals are for this year, they tell us how important it is to not be tardy, blah blah blah. I've heard this so many times before. So by the time I was to my 4th period class I was ready to pass out. When my lunch bell rings I feel so relieved and go straight to my locker to grab my lunch. When I get to the cafeteria I sit down at my usual table that I've had the last 3 years of high school.
A little bit later Anna comes and sits down next to me. Following her is Dillion, Mark, Abby, Tyler, and Jess. Mark and Jess joined our table Sophomore year and ever since its always been the 7 of us.
Dillion has dark brown hair, blue eyes, and a pretty average build. Abby is very petite, with a light complextion, almost black shorter hair, and hazil eyes. Mark is the usual Jock, very muscular, green eyes, flowy blonde hair, and a smile that can blind you. Jess is the beautiful chearleeder that hates all the stuck-up prisses on the squad but puts up with them so she can get a scholarship to chear in college (her parents put her in tumbling since she was 4). She's blonde like me but a bit lighter and a shorter cut, light brown eyes and a figure girls would kill for. Then there's the jaw-droppingly handsome Tyler (a.k.a. my best guy friend) He has the best body (not too overwhelming) the most gorgeous eyes (deep blue), and messy brown hair that falls in front of his eyes whenever he looks up at you.
"Hey guys! I was afraid they would split us up this year." Mark says as he takes a seat.
"I guess not!" Anna replies in her flirtacious voice. She's had a crush on this kid since the beginning of Jr. year when he walked into school the first day completely grown out of his awkward phase.
Tyler comes around the table and sits nexts to me and gives me a little nudge.
"Haven't seen you in a couple days" he jokes, "How were your first couple classes?"
"Ehhh not too bad, It's going to be quite a year for Calc and AP lit." I say with a groan.
"Don't worry if all else fails, you can always become an actress" he winks at me.
"Psshhh, not even! I only do that stuff for fun." I say and roll my eyes. "That doesn't mean you can't be good, I've seen you and you're amazing."
I look down at my tray while I blush so that he doesn't make fun of me. He touches my cheek with the back of his hand and says, "That's so pretty"
I slap his hand away, "shut up" and I stick out my tongue.
He just shrugs,
