Ms Nerd and Mr Jock

Start from the beginning
                                    

I had been called a nerd since I aced all my subjects and hang out with smart kids. I didn't look like a nerd of course, I wasn't ugly, I inherited my mother's smooth brown hair and light hazel eyes. I could have easily gotten into the popular gang with my looks and money. But I preferred not to because I didn't think i would like the company of fake friends. Leon who over the years developed a love for skate-boarding, still stuck by me and our friendship remained strong. He didn't seem to dislike the company of my other friends, which I was grateful for.  

The reason why Cameron despised me was because I refused to be in his popular clique and not join the cheerleaders. 'You could have a perfect high school life with me, I don't get you!' He had said that once, that was after a huge fight had happened between us. No one in school knew I was the daughter of billionaire Roy Millers of course. I was just regular Celiana Millers. Over the years, I just assumed that the reason why Cameron left, was because I was a threat to his popularity. 

Present Time:

"Next time I see you nerd, I'll kill you." an evil grin crossed Cameron's face. I was going to be sixteen and he still treated me like some social outcast. I didn't even look like one! Before Cameron had the chance to kick my books, Leon stopped him, putting himself in between me and Cameron.

"Next time you kick my best friend, I'll kill YOU." he crossed his arms. Leon grew up a lot since he was five. He had one of those skater looks which fitted him a lot. "What did she ever do to you? And freaking stop with the nicknames!" he pushed Cameron and Cameron stumbled backwards. Cameron looked like he was about to beat up Leon but his friends stopped him of course. Who would want to lose Leon when he had high chances to be in the basketball team? What they didn't know was that Leon hated basketball despite his natural gifting in all type of sports.

"Stop. I'm going to class." I picked up my books and smoothed down my hair. I gave Cameron a sad look but he returned an emotionless one. I sighed and walked towards the science wing. 

"Does Cameron hate me that much?" I sighed when I got to my seat which was, as usual, next to Isabel Tyler. Isabel Tyler was Cameron's little sister who was the same age as me. Cameron was going to be seventeen. Isabel here, was one of my best friends.  

"My brother hit you again?! I'm telling my mom." she took out her cell phone but I took it from her. 

"No, it's alright!" I smiled at her. Even when Cameron hated me, I still considered him as one of my best friends. Isabel frowned and put her phone in her bag. 

"I don't get why he even calls you a nerd. I'm the nerd here.. So what if you hang out with us? You're different! Why do you even want to be with us when you could be with the pretty people?" she pretended a angry face which made me laughed a bit. "It's not funny, Celia."

Celia was my nickname for Celiana. But no one called me that except close friends and family. And of course, Cameron. 

"He's just worried Tiana would hurt me if he doesn't treat me like junk." I smiled at Isabel. 

I heard her sigh. "You could even treat him like he's your friend. Sometimes, I don't get you."

Cameron's P.O.V. :

That Leon pushed me. How dare he? I was practically the king of the school! I admit, I didn't like hurting Celia but if I didn't hurt her, my popularity would shatter and Tiana would leave me. Besides, she's a nerd and a jock like me, don't hang out with nerds like her. With looks and money like that, why didn't she joined our clique? I sighed in frustration as I can't concentrate on History Class.

"Cameron Tyler. Please go to the principal's office. Your parents and your sister are there waiting for you." my teacher called me out. The hallway was empty since everyone was in their respective classes. It was so silent I could hear a pin drop. As I entered the principal's office, the principal and my parents turned their heads to my direction. Isabel was sitting there clutching onto her bag. 

"Cameron, we have some news." my dad spoke up. "There was an earthquake in our neighbour hood. Our house and all the other houses surrounding us had collasped. So we're going to live at my best friend and his family's place for awhile." Earthquake? But wasn't that house the first place I met Celia? I shook the thought out of my head. That wasn't the time to think about Celia. Actually, why was I even thinking about that nerd?

"Go back to class and we'll talk about it when school's over." 

Celiana's P.O.V.:

School finished and I ran out of that place. Literally. Leon recieved a call that his neighbourhood had an little earthquake and his house collasped. A thought came to my mind. What happened to my old house then? The one Cameron lived in? I shook the thought out of my head. Leon's mom was living with her friend so at the mean time, Leon could crash at my place. None of my friends had been in my family's mansion before. Even Leon. 

I saw my driver, Ben in a limo outside of the school gate, parking there. I covered my face with my hoodie and went in with Leon. The last thing I wanted was people in school recognizing me as the rich girl. I was never good with attention anyways. So why bother now? I had been in a limo for almost a thousand times but it was like Leon's first time inside one because he just can't stop blabbering about it.

When the mansion came into view, Leon gasped. It was huge, I knew that. But I never liked to show off. As I entered, Leon followed me from behind. Mom was sitting in the living room which was in Leon's saying, extremely incredibly huge. "Celia? Back already?" she smiled at me. My mother had brown hair which flowed all the way to her waist and thick eye lashes. She was beautiful for a woman in her early forties. 

"Yeah. I am. Leon's crashing for awhile, will that be alright?" I asked my mom.

"Of course! But he's not the only one crashing over for awhile. Your dad's friend and his family also suffered the earthquake and so they'll be staying here maybe for three months until their house is back. It's October so you'll be alright until school ends for the year." I raised an eyebrow. Who else would be staying at my mansion? 

Dinner came and we were in our dining room. Leon kept looking around saying that he felt like he was living in a castle. I bet castles looked better than my little old mansion, I told him but he just shook his head and laughed. The door bell rang. Servant Leah was about to open the door but I got to the door before she could. 

I wondered who would be at the door?

A knock came from the door and I opened it. Standing there was Cameron Tyler. 

Once my best friend.

The person who hated me with all his heart.

The one I would never guess be standing there at my door in a million years.

Sorry if the start sucks. I'll improve more.
