Hey, there is a picture of Nicholas on the right side, I wish I could find a better picture, but it will have to do....

Tuesday

 I was sitting in detention. It had just begun and I was lost in thought in what happened yesterday. Not about the whole Nicholas drama. No, I was thinking about my brother the menace. He is so childish. Did you know what he did to me? Well...

"Hey cupcake. What you thinking about?" A voice inside my head said. Oh great! He's even interrupting me in my head.

"Cupcake?" Nicholas asked. Ohhh. So he wasn't in my head.

"Huh?" I mumbled when I snapped out of my daydream.

"Hey, I told you would come to to like your nickname." He said grinning.

I scowled " I do not!"

"Whatever. So what were you thinking about?"

"My evil brother." I said sighing.

"Ah..." He said, "What did he do?"

I sighed again, "Put whip cream in my shampoo."

He laughed very loudly and the teacher looked at us sternly.

"Classic!" He said still laughing out loud." I bet you had quite a suprise."

"You have no idea." I said.

He laughed again. Very loudly indeed. I shhed him and he quieted just a bit.

"I like your brother, cupcake."

"Speaking of cupcakes. Did you enjoy my cupcake?" I half-whispered.

"It was very delicious." He said.

I rolled my eyes," You are evil."

He laughed again, even louder this time.

"That is it Ms.Woods and Mr. Carter you have another detention tomorrow." The teacher said.

I groaned in disgust but Nicholas just merely shrugged. He did quiet down. We talked the whole detention. Even though we weren't supposed to. Talk about bad -ass. You know hes not that bad. Well he is still an arrogant jerk but...hes funny.

Finally the detention was over and Nicholas offerered me a ride home. On his motorcycle. It was black,big and intimadating. It fit him. Especially with his black leather jacket, black jeans and black t - shirt. I didn't understand the white sneakers though.

At first I didn't want to go on the bike.

"Melissa get on the bike." He had said.

"No! I'm scared." I had said shaking my head.

"Melissa!" He had shouted.

"What?"

"If you don't get on the bike. I will put you on it." He had threatened.

"You wouldn't!"

He raised an eyebrow. And I gave in. I did grumble a lot though.

Actually the ride was very nice. I like the feel of the wind. It had been chilly, so Nicholas gave me his jacket to wear. Like I said he wasn't that bad. Omg! Yesterday I hated him like poison and now... I kinda liked him. I'm so confused...

Right so...we reached my house. It was big, a family house with five bedrooms with their own bathroom one was a guestroom. The house was painted blue and white and had a splendid garden which my mother spent hours on.
