Ronnie

Nicki Palmer would describe herself in three words: adventurous, ambitious, and fun. She's not your average girl; she gets into trouble at school, doesn't do what her parents ask of her, and likes to sneak out at nights. She can't wait for high school to end so she can pursue her favourite hobby: dancing. 

Niall Harrison is a troublemaker who happens to hate her. He would describe Nicki in three words: selfish, spoiled, and annoying. The two of them have never been able to stand each other, ever since Rey moved to a public school 3 years ago.

All they have to do is get through their last year of school without killing each other before they will finally get their freedom. But that could be a little tough, since they're stubborn, tough, and strong-willed. Their differences may collide, but at the same time, they sort of complete each other. Too bad hate is much more powerful than love.

Or is it?

Cold Water

When I wake up the next morning Niall is still sleeping so I text Jake.

Niall stirs awake so I type a quick reply to Jake.

I lock my phone and pretend I’m sleeping, only to fake wake up when he does.

"Hi. I know you woke up before me. I heard your nails typing, you don’t fool me." He laughs and cracks his neck.

"Oh, I was just saying good morning to Jake." I say and get out of bed to go brush my hair and teeth.

"I should go." Niall says when I come out of the bathroom in just my underwear. He’s staring at the bed, which is cute, because he doesn’t want to stare at me. "Should I sneak out or?"

"Well, my parents are probably still asleep so there’s no trouble."
