I Swear I'm Not Crazy

4| Welcome To Hell

NIA

"I'm rich, rich, bow down peasants." I exclaimed while throwing money in the air.

"Wake up miss." I heard a voice say in the distance. "Nia!"

"What? What?" I blurted out, getting aggravated. I opened my eyes, "No!! It was a dream I'm not rich." I cried.

Matteo looked at me in confusion, "Get up, it's time to go to school." He says politely.

"School?" I groaned. "Yes, school the thing kids go to, to get an education." He explained I can feel is sassy attitude even though he's saying it oh so politely.

"I'm not stupid." I scoff and throw my covers off of me. "I just don't want to go." I say as I make my way to the bathroom.

I sniffed myself, ew I smell. "I'll be out in a minute!" I yelled.

I took off my clothes that have been on for more than twenty-four hours, what? I was tired when I got here.

I entered the bathroom and stared at my reflection. I look like a zombie. My long curly hair was a big Afro right now and my green eyes had dark circles under them.

Sighing I went into the shower. I let the warm water flow down my body, I could stay in here forever.

But good things come to an end eventually.

The water got cold.

I got out wrapping my towel around me, I french braided my hair too tight to the point my eyes looked Asian.

I would be a cute Asian. Asians are hella fine.

I undid it and did a loser French braid and did my baby hairs. "Looking good, mama." I say with a wink to myself.

I applied some coconut oil on my face and called it a day.

I made my way to the uniform that was hanging on my closet door.

I put it on and went downstairs, holding my dirty converses in my left hand. I rolled my eyes as I saw Greg standing at the end of the stairs with Veronica.

My eyes flickered past them and spotted Matteo, "Good morning Matteo." I say walking passed them both, "Right now you're my favorite person in this house." I say out loud so the people in the back can hear.

"I'm honored but, your father is trying hard to make up-"

"Thirteen years, I don't think so." I cut him off.

"Please, Nia." I heard Greg say behind me, I turned around glaring at him, "Listen, I can't rewind time, I would if I could, hell I would've done it by now." He paused and pierced his lips together, and walked closer to me placing his hands on my shoulder. "But, I can't. I can only fix the present." He says with a smile.

"Did you get that off of a movie or something?" I spat and swipe his hands off of me. "It's going to take a lot more than a stupid speech to get on my good side, do you know how many days mom stayed up crying because of you?"

"Do you know how many times I've gotten sad because I saw other kids with there fathers."

I scoff, "Of course you wouldn't, you weren't there." I say.

"Wheres breakfast?" I questioned.

"Right this way."

After breakfast, Matteo guided me to the garage. "HOLY s**t!" I exclaimed as I made my way to the five cars that were in the garage. "What the hell does he do, is he a drug dealer?" I questioned.

"Not quite, he's a businessman he has a multi-million dollar company." He explained.

"And he only has five cars?" I questioned not impressed.

"Oh, this? this is nothing, he has more at his other houses."

"Other houses?!" I blurted out.

"So would you like to take the limo?" He questioned.

"Oh! Why not? I might as well make a good first impression." I say with a smirk.

Pulling up to the school I knew immediately these kids were loaded with money. All down the line for student parking were Exotic cars.

Great, I'm going to school with a bunch of preppy rich kids.

"For the love of everything holy." I yelled when Matteo got out the car to open my door, I told him a million times I could open my door but, he insisted.

"Have a good first day Nia." He said with a smile.

I walked out, "Thank you, and I'll try." I said as I fixed my skirt. If this skirt rises one more time, I swear to God!!

I turned around watching him drive off, No... Don't go...

I turned back around to see everyone staring.

You know I now realized that I was the only one that arrived in a limo everyone was chauffeuring themselves.

They started to whisper and point, "What the hell you all staring at?" I yell and march my way up the steps.

"HELLO!!" I heard someone yell behind me, "NIA!"

I hear some girl with a soft voice yell my name behind me, I thought I was hearing things at first because I'm new. How would anyone know my name? I heard a loud thump behind me I turned around.

Once I turned around these girls were surrounding her looking down at her on the floor.

These girls were surrounding her one had blonde short hair and the other had long red hair. "Watch where you're going you f*****g loser." The redhead spat as she pushed the girl's books to the far right with her black heels.

"Gosh. You almost ruined my Louboutin heels, bitch." The blonde yelled.

I looked around, Why is nobody stopping them?

"I'm sor-"

The blonde girl kicked her in her stomach, "Did I say you can f*****g speak?" The blonde girl yelled.

"Woah! Calm down!" I yelled, pushing her away from the poor girl. "The f**k don't touch me." She spat. "Yeah don't touch her!" The redhead says crossing her arms.

I squatted down ignoring them, "Are you okay?" I say with a concerned look in my eyes. "Y-yeah..." She whispered I reach out my hand to help her up.

"Oh wow, losers reunite!" The girls say with a fake smile. I rolled my eyes helping the girl up. "Oh my God look at her shoes." They started to laugh, I looked down at my dirty converse. "Oh my God look at that booger in your nose." I said out loud. Blondie started to cover her nose.

I heard some people snicker behind me, "You must be new." The redhead said.

"So I'm- WHERE going to let you pass this time, but-" She paused smacking the blonde's hand away from her nose and muttered, "There is no booger in your nose, Stacey."

She glared back at me, "We are the queens of this school, mess with us lets just say we would make your life a living hell." She threatened and like that they sashayed away.

I crossed my arms and turned around almost bumping into the girl that was calling after me.

"Oh, you're still here."

"Hi. I just wanna thank you." She says softly, tucking a piece of her black hair behind her ear.

Oh my God, she's so adorable.

"Don't mention it if they bother you again just go spike lee on them." I say as I walk past her trying to find my locker. "Easy for you to say." She says running up beside me, "Plus it's not that simple they run this school as Patrica said back there."

"Okay well, then you're in a bit of a rut." I say as I playfully poke her on her shoulders. I turned around bumping into a hard figure.

I took in a deep breath inhaling sent of... Vanilla. I was quickly shoved into the blue lockers, "Ow my back." I groaned.

"She is deeply sorry!!" I heard- dang I never asked her for her name. I looked up locking eyes with a demon, just kidding. I looked up to see a guy with green eyes, his whole aroma was scary, but his eyes they were gentle. "If you broke my back, I'm pressing charges." I sarcastically say.

I flickered my eyes behind him there where two guys standing there with there arms crossed. "She's a bit of a joker." The guy with blonde hair said

"Watch where you're going." The guy said with his deep New York accent.

As I said, I love me an accent.

"If you keep talking you're going to make me wet." I moved closer to his ear, "And you holding me down isn't helping either, I like it a little rough." I whispered.

He let go of me looking astonished but that look quickly faded back to his scary Demeter. "Let's go." He says stuffing his hands in his hoodie pocket walking away, and the two boys followed.

I think I'm going to enjoy this school, what else can I do?
