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 get home the next Monday from school, Leah is sitting in the living room, yelling at mom.

"Why the fuck are you yelling?" I ask after I’ve toed off my shoes.

"Language." My mom tells me as I kiss her cheek.

"Because I have no idea what to wear to the springtime ball this Friday." Leah whines. She’s holding two dresses and my mother looks helpless, obviously done with this shit.

"Honey, just pick one, and I’ll buy you shoes that go with it tomorrow."

Leah rolls her eyes at her. "I can’t tomorrow, I have detention this week."

"Why do you have detention?" mom scolds her.

"Because…I was texting during class."

"I need to get to work, but I promise I will buy you the shoes myself-"

"I can take her today." I offer and my mom beams at me, standing up from the couch.

"You’re the best son ever." She smiles and grabs my face to place a kiss to my cheek.
