AUTHORS NOTICE

I JUST WANTED TO SAY SORRY FOR NOT POSTING THIS SOONER. I have received a lot of attention from this fanfiction than I thought I would and I haven't even written anything for it. I'm so sorry for wasting people's time or making people upset if they really wanted to see this. Also, school is almost out for me! (yay) so during the summer I'll definitely be more active.

Nikki's POV

May 4th, 2016, Monday

UGH! I can't believe MacKenzie is STILL trying to get with Brandon even though she's in a different school now! I overheard some of the CCP girls saying that she almost tried asking him out to this "Summer Dance" Which I don't know about, but I recently want to ask Chloe and Zoey in case they might know! Those two girls, may be dorks, but they know a ton about dating and romance!

"Hey gurrll!" Zoey smiled and waved across the hall. "Hey!" I waved back and ran over there to talk to them.

"Do you two girls know anything about the "Summer Dance" that the CCPs have been talking about?" I asked them, doing jazzhands.

"Yeah," Chloe replied. "In fact, we just found this poster explaining everything you need to know about it." Chloe puts down her backpack and hands me this very pretty pink and purple colored sheet that had all the information about the dance.

I took the sheet and looked all over it. The design was very interesting to look at, with the swirls and hearts. "Wow, I'd like to meet whoever made the design! They are a good drawer..."

"Of course you do..." Chloe rolls her eyes. "Apparently, this Summer Dance is going to happening soon, we get to invite plenty of friends, cute boys, and there will be food too! You know how much I LOVE food."

"I wonder if BRANDON asks you out." Zoey said, batting her eyes all flirty-like.

"Aww come on guys!" I start blushing. "Maybe he'll ask me, but only as friends."

"Oh, come on Nikki, remember that kiss he gave you during our fundraiser? I'm sure he'll ask you out! You two were practically made for each other!"

The bell starts to ring.

"OMG! The late bell! We're gonna be late." I quickly grab by bookbag, binder, diary, and the Summer Dance sheet, shoving it all in mindlessly. I jump in the air, not wanting to get the teacher mad on the last month of school and raced down the hallway with Chloe and Zoey falling slowly behind. Finally we made it to our homeroom, but something was odd. There was a boy I've never seen before.

A new kid in the last month of school?! Pssh unbelievable.

I sat down, trying to see his face, but he was facing down, getting stuff out of his bookbag. I couldn't see him, but the shape of his head was cute. Ahaha... "the shape of his head".

"Hello class," My homeroom teacher walks up. Kids just kept talking and talking. "CLASS!" He screeches, making me hold my ears his voice hurts so bad. "Thank you. Today we have a new student joining us." He gestures to the kid, and the boy finally gets up facing me.

All what I had to say is that he was a SUPER cute boy.

Almost as cute as Brandon.

And that's saying A LOT.

"Hi." He says. "Um... my name is Greg Heffley. And... um, yeah. Just joining this class." He stand up for a little while, awkwardly like he's waiting for something. In the corner of my eye, I could see Chloe and Zoey making googly faces. I turn to them and mouth

"What's wrong with you two"

"Isn't he cute" Zoey mouths back.

I hesitate and then realize that he's walking straight toward me. I sit up straighter, as if that helps, and kinda smiled at him. He smiled back, this kinda crooked cute smile. It made me all gushy inside.

Geez, all this love crap and I'm gonna vomit.

Then I started going into this thing called RCS (Roller Coaster Syndrome) Basically any girl from the ages 10 to 18 who fall in love with a guy feel like they're floating in air, at the same time having their stomach rolling around and do as many flips and tricks as it can. It can make you feel all happy in the weirdest way.

I felt like opening my mouth and going "SQQQQUUUEEEEEEEEEEE!"

I LOVE to HATE that feeling! :)

Greg takes his seat behind me and I could feel his presence there. His cute, brown hair, brushed to the side, and his blue eyes, shimmering in the classroom lights. I dared not to look behind me, NO DUH. But I really, really wanted to. Really really wanted to, because he was so darn cute!

And then I thought about Brandon... who do I like better? I guy I barely know, or a guy I've loved all throughout Middle School. Ooh... this is gonna be hard. I just won't think about Greg for the rest of my life... piece of cake.

Right?

AT LUNCH TABLE

"OMG! Did you SEE that new guy?" Zoey squealed in my ear, making me wince.

"Of course I did." I saisd sarcastically. "He introduced himself to the entire class doo-doo bird..."

"Isn't he cute?"

"Yeah, super cute!" Chloe kicked the table mindlessly. She always does that when she thinks about cute guys.

"Yeah, well too bad he wouldn't talk to us dorks." I said, secretly wishing he would. I just wanted to move on the a different conversation.

Zoey sighed. "Yeah. I guess he wouldn't."

Chloe watched Greg enter the lunchroom, looking for someplace to eat, until eventually he sits in another section alone. "OMG!" Chloe bursts with happiness. "HE'S SITTING ALONE! Let's go talk to him!"

"What?! No way!" Chloe starts walking toward him faster than I ever saw he walk. I grab her arm and pull her back. "We can't! It'll be too awkward."

"Awkward is my middle name." Chloe pulls her arm back with all her might and starts walking toward him again.

I groan. That'll be a disaster.

Zoey jumps up. "Imma talk to him too."

"What do you mean?" I ask.

"Don't worry Nikki, besides look at that poor boy. He isn't sitting with anyone. We should talk to him. And I'm going over to him whether or coming or not."

I sigh. "Fine. Not much of a point being stuck alone at this table anyway." I walk with Zoey towards his table.

Greg looks up. "Oh hi." "Hello, sorry if it seems like we're intruding." Chloe giggled. "It just seemed like you needed some friends."

"Sure." He looked at all three of us. "Um... you girls gonna sit?"

I started laughing loudly. "HAHA. Yeah... funny joke."

He stares at me. "Yeah..."

Chloe and Zoey take a sit, while I'm in a trance, staring into his eyes. Chloe eventually pulls me down, falling down like a little girl's favorite ragdoll toy. "Ignore her, she's the weird one in the group.

Like you should be talking, Chloe. But I just think that in my head, so no one hears it except me.

"I'm Nikki." I finally say. "These are my two friends, Chloe and Zoey."

"Yeah, you three are the girls in my homeroom class." He says. "I'm kinda new here, and I'd like it if I'd have a guide."

"OOOH I'LL GUIDE YOU!" Zoey says with her cheesy smile. Chloe gives her a glare.

"We'll all be happy to guide you around." I say. "I even know this one cool guy named Brandon that I think you'll really like. He's nice and handsome just like you...- I mean, like You... um... a character in a TV show... hehe."

Chloe and Zoey stare at me like a just killed my mom.

"Wow. That's um... interesting."

"Very." I respond, trying not to make the conversation awkward. "Ok Chloe and Zoey, we need to go back to our table and finish eating, right?" I nudge them. "It was so nice having formal introductions with you!" I grab Chloe and Zoey and pull them up to their feet. "Ok, come on. Bye Greg!" I wave and walk away. Chloe and Zoey stay back to bat their eye-lashes and do stupid things, because, you know, that's sexy...

UGH GREAT! Now I'm confused if I like GREG better or BRANDON better? What do I do? I want to ask Chloe and Zoey about it, but they are probably crushing way to much on Greg to understand anyway, which is pretty stupid. I wouldn't blame them though. He is SUPER cute.

I'm such a BAD friend. :(
