this chapter….

------------

------Nikolette’s Pov------

Mark had sort of freaked me out a bit the other day, when he gave me a hug but I soon
got over it. Mainly because he came over and saw me almost everyday, it was either at
school or when I got home. I hadn’t told Nyk because I knew he would get mad, that I
was spending time with his enemy but Mark needed my help and I always go out of my
way to help people.

‘Nikolette… someone at the door for you!’ my father called up the stairs, I knew who it
would be before I reached the bottom of the stairs.

‘Hey Mark, are you okay?’ I smiled and gestured him to come inside. I led him up stairs
and into my bedroom. My room wasn’t large but it wasn’t small either, all the walls were
red, my bed black and white, on one wall was a photo frame filled with millions of little
photos of me and my click, then I had my computer desk with a Apple Air Notebook
plugged into the wall with a photo frame next to it of me and Nyk. I loved that photo it
was the first one we ever took together.

‘Wow… is this your room?’ Mark did a little spin in the middle of my room looking
around the whole entire space.
‘Yep… now what seems to be the problem today?’ I smiled and sat cross-legged on my
bed.

‘Janette called and asked if we could get back together.’ He sighed and sat on the floor.

‘What did you say?’ I tilted my head back.

‘I said that I would think about it and get back to her soon.’ He sounded so professional
when he said that, it was as if he was hiring someone for a job.

‘Okay… so what are you going to say?’ I sighed… why was I helping him?

‘I don’t know… I felt so betrayed, and I really don’t think I want to get back with her.’

‘Say no then... You don’t have to do anything you don’t want to do.’ I smiled and sat up
properly. ‘It’s not like your going to lose your popularity just because you’re no longer
dating her

‘That’s true… it got to where I am now because I worked for it… playing football isn’t
easy so yeah I made it here because wanted to do it.’ He stood and started to hype himself
up.

I smiled and watched him, for most of the afternoon. It felt great to have someone else to
talk to other than the people in my click not that I didn’t like talking to them, its just that I
like talking to other people outside of my little world.

‘What are you doing this Saturday?’ Mark smiled down at me and pulling me out of my
own thoughts.
‘Saturday… hmm… nothing at the moment. Why?’ I placed a finger on my lips and
thought some more.

‘Did you want to go see a movie or something?’ he continued to beam at me.

‘I don’t know, Mark… I have a boyfriend remember.’ I sighed and thought of Nyklus.

‘I know… but it wasn’t going to be a date or anything… just friends.’ He gave me the
cutest look, I hated when people pulled the puppy dogface because I can’t help myself
but agree with what they say.

‘Just friends…’ I nodded and smiled.

‘Great… I will pick you up at eight…’ he beamed once more.

‘Sure… okay… I will be ready by then.’ I smiled and looked over at the photo of my and
Nyk. I don’t think that this is classified as cheating; Mark is a friend as long as nothing
happens between us its not cheating.

-------- Two day’s later-----

‘Hello my love.’ Nyk pulled me into his arms and kissed me softly on the lips.

‘Hello sweetie.’ I smiled and hugged him back. I still hadn’t told him about Mark and I
don’t think I want to either. I wanted to keep our friendship a secret and that way neither
of us would get hurt by it.

Mark went around school like he normally did, but the only difference was that he didn’t
bother to notice my click and me.

‘What are you doing this Saturday?’ Nyklus smile down at me. I didn’t know what to do,
I could tell him the truth and risk him getting angry or I could lie and run the risk that he
will find out later.

‘Sorry I already have plans for this Saturday, how about next week.’ I smiled, what I said
wasn’t a lie and neither the truth.

‘Okay… I will find out if we can do something next week, because I’m not sure if I’m
working or not.’ He sighed and released me from his hug.

‘I’m sorry. But I will leave next Saturday booked for you and me time.’ I smiled and
kissed him on the cheek before heading off to class.

--------Nyklus’s Pov---------
‘Is it me or has Nikolette been a bit distant the past few days?’ I asked Ish as we walked
to Ancient History together.

‘I don’t know but what ever it is she doesn’t want you to know about it.’ Ish looked
around the class for Cythanie. We found her in the back of the classroom with two seats
saved for us. Ish was excited to see her and nearly ran all the way over to her just to pull
her into a hug.

‘Hey Cythanie.’ Is smiled and sat next to Ish.

‘Sweetie… do you know if Nikolette is hiding something from the rest of the group,
because Nyk thinks that she is being a bit distant.’ Ish stunned her with a dazzling smile.

‘Um… if you want I will ask her this afternoon.’ She smiled over at me.

‘Thanks.’ I sighed and concentrated on the work that needed to be done in this period.

-------Nikolette’s Pov-----

‘Yes the day is finally over.’ I smiled over at Nyk as we walked home after school that
afternoon.

‘Mm…’ he mumbled some words and continued to walk towards my house.

‘What’s the matter Nyk?’ I sighed and stopped in the middle of the pathway.

‘You…’ he whispered. ‘You seem so distant lately and I don’t know what I have done.’
he looked down at me with pain in his eyes.

‘What are you going on about? I put my hands on my hips.

‘What are you hiding from me… seriously I promise that I wont get mad what ever it is.’

‘You wouldn’t understand.’ I looked down at my feet.

‘Try me.’ he grasped my hands.

‘Mark and I have been spending a lot of time together after school.’ Nyklus removed his
hands from mine and took a step back.

‘Why would you want to spend time with him? He doesn’t even like us.’ He half yelled at
me.

‘I told you, that you wouldn’t understand.’ I threw my hands up in the air.

‘But why Nikolette?’ he calmed down.

‘Because he needs a true friend right now. If you haven’t heard he broke up with Janette
and he needs some help…’ I poked him in the chest. ‘And just because he doesn’t like
you, doesn’t mean that he hates me.’ I grumbled and walked away, heading toward home.

‘Nikolette, wait… come on… I’m sorry.’ I could hear Nyklus run after me.

‘Nyklus what is your problem? Aren’t I allowed to have other friends other than you and
the group!’ I spun on my heel to face him.

‘You’re allowed to have as many friends as you want, but why does it have to be Mark?’

‘I can pick anyone I want.’ I yelled. ‘Why can’t you understand that he is my friend?'

‘Because, he never just wants to be friends.’ He yelled and threw his hands in the air.

‘Whatever Nyklus…. I’m going home with or without you.’ with that last word I stormed
off in the direction of home.

This was the first ever fight I had with Nyklus and I didn’t know how to cope with it.
When I got home tears were flowing down my eyes and I stormed up to my room.

I pulled out my apple iphone and messaged Cythanie.

Just had fight with Nyk.

Cythanie
What over??

Me

Mark… we are just friends and Nyk didn’t like that one bit.

Cythanie

He must be jealous that’s all… it happens to guys all the time...

Me

But it just felt like he wanted to control, what friends I’m allowed and not allowed to
have.

Cythanie

What were his last words to you??

Me

He didn’t have the last words… I did… all I said was Whatever Nyklus, and then I
stormed off…

Cythanie

Wow you called him Nyklus… I haven’t heard you call him that in ages… :O

Me
Yeah I know… I kind of feel bad that I yelled at him but Mark just need a true friend and
I was that person… seems I have known him since I was just a kid… sigh what am I
going to do…

Cythanie

Call him and make up…

Me

Okay…

Cythanie

Fingers crossed everything will get better :)

Me

Thanks

I sighed and placed my phone down on my bed and I lay back, and tried to think clearly.

What was I going to do? I love him so much but I have never had an argument with him
before.
