asked by anyone at our school. It’s not like I am homely or ugly I just kept to myself and stayed in my books. Now I got to go with the man I loved and it was going to be a night to remember. The night of the dance was going to be the first time that we slept together. I wanted everything to be perfect. I had spent hours and hours shopping for the right dress to make his head spin.

 

            The day before the dance there was a new girl that was enrolled in our school. She was beautiful. Long tan legs, long wavy blonde hair and baby blue eyes. Derek had two classes with her but I didn't have any. Derek had been very distant all day long and I thought that I had done something wrong. After school I asked Derek what was bothering him and why he was so distant, he said "There isn't anything wrong Niki stop being so clingy." My heart shattered and he walked away from me. As he walked down the hall I see Blondie come up and walk beside him. Jealousy ripped through my veins. I could feel the biting pain of my nails digging into my palms. I wanted to trust Derek because I loved him but there was something going on with Blondie, I could feel it in my bones.

 

He didn't call me that night and I wasn't going to call him after he said I was being clingy. I don’t know what happened. One day we are in love and nothing to change that and the next day I am “to clingy”. The image if Blondie keeps flashing in my head making impossible for me to get over this issue. I know that there is something going on. I mean come on, the day she comes to school Derek acts like I am a disease and then they are walking together after school. What does she have that I don’t? I treat Derek like a prince and we get along together so well. It might be the fact that she is beautiful, tall, has long legs and a southern draw that would set your heart on fire. We have been together for 8 months and in one day he has turned cold to me. There is nothing that I can do but wait and see what happened. Tomorrow is the dance and I wanted to have everything be prefect so I decided to blow it off and try to focus on the dance.

 

            The dance had finally come. I bought a new floor length red sparkle dress. It was backless and had a small train behind it. It was a beautiful dress. When I put the dress on I felt like a totally different person. I was confident for the first time in my life. I was hoping that this would catch Derek's attention and hopefully he would stop acting so distant. I spent the whole day getting my hair and makeup done. My long black hair was curled and flowing down my back. My makeup was perfect, not too much but just enough to notice. There was no way the Blondie was going to out shine me tonight. I was so excited, especially for Derek to see me. The plan was for Derek to pick me up at 8pm in the Limo and we would both go to the dance together.

 

            When 8pm came and he didn't show I called his cell phone and it went to voicemail. I left so many messages. I could feel hot tears stinging my cheeks as my heart began to break. Then anger set in. How can stand me up? We have been together for months and he stands me up!? This is all because of that slut Blondie. I feel my whole body become hot and my face red with anger. My mother see's me sitting at the bottom of the stairs and asks, "Where is Derek, Niki? Is everything ok?" The last thing that I wanted is my Mom to know what was going on. She would make a huge deal about it and I don't want to talk about it right now. I just want to know what is going on and where my boyfriend is. My suspicions are coming true. I know it. He has to be with that slut. Anger has taken over every part of me and I am seeing red. I need to know for sure if my suspicions are true. I am going to dance…now.

 

 I look at my mom realizing that I haven’t answered her question yet "Ya, Mom I guess the Limo broke down and we are going to meet there." I hate lying to her but I don’t want her to know what just happened because she would not approve of what I was going to do. I don’t want to argue with her right now because I tend to say things I don’t mean when I am upset.

 

She looks at me with a concerned face, "Do you want me to drive you, Niki?"

"No thanks Mom, I am going to drive. It would be kind of embarrassing having my mom drive me to the Spring Fling." I try to force a smile and restrain the tears that are fighting to get out. I need to hold myself together. I don’t want to fall apart and look weak in front of Derek. I went through a thousand things that I want to say if he is at the dance. I am going to tear him apart. I knew just what I was going to do. I was going to drive to the dance and confront Derek. There is no way I am going to let him treat me this way. I am not going to be walked all over. I jumped in my car and pulled out of the driveway as slowly as I could as not to draw attention to my mother. I knew she would be watching through the window. Once I get out of her sight I step on the gas and race to the school. The trees and homes are ripping past. I pay no attention to my speed. Ripping around corners, running stop signs, I am unstoppable.

 

            I finally get to the school parking lot. There are lines of Limo stretched around the school. I speed to the front of the Gym and parked my car in the fire lane. I wasn't planning on staying very long. I marched into the Gym I could feel piercing pain in my palms from my nails, but I didn't care. I started walking around the herds of dancing teens all enjoying themselves and laughing. I couldn't help but hate all of them. This was supposed to be a special night for Derek and I and he has ruined it. I feel like I have been looking for him for hours. Maybe I was wrong. Maybe something happened at home and he wasn’t able to get me. I was starting to feel guilty for thinking such things about Derek. How could I be so stupid? But finally out of the corner of my eye I see Derek. My heart is breaking and falling to the ground. I step over the pieces running on pure anger. He is standing leaning against the wall with a drink in his hand. He hasn't seen me yet. I begin to walk over to him from the other side of the gym. Then Blondie walks up to Derek and kisses him. I lose my mind and run over to him. I slap his drink into his face and yell “What the fuck do you think you are doing?! Derek how could you! You’re a fucking bastard! Why would you do this to me?! If you didn't want to be with me anymore then you should have just broke up with me like a man and not cheat on me!" I could no longer hold back the tears from my eyes. My face is covered in wetness and my makeup running down my face. I cock my hand back and slap him as hard as I can in the face. The music was blasting but everyone in the Gym was staring at us.

 

Derek’s face turns white. People are starting to gather around us and he begins to realize that his popularity is at stake. Then the Blondie decides to open her mouth and let her southern draw roll out . “I don't know who you think you are but Derek is my boyfriend. Derek told me that you are obsessed with him and pretend that you are his girl. Stop embarrassing yourself. Have some class." She Flips her hair and grabs Derek's arm and kisses him on the cheek. "This is my Boyfriend so why don't you run along." Anger takes over and I lung at her ripping out pieces of her hair and scratching her face. Derek grabs my waist, "Niki stop please! I’m sorry, please stop!" Rage has taken over as my scratches turn into a closed fist and I am punching her anywhere that will connect on her. My father always told me that if I ever got in a fight the key to coming out on top was being aggressive. I was swinging as hard as I could keeping my eyes open to make sure I was making contact and making sure it was painful. I know that she didn’t know that we had actually been together for 8 months and Derek had told her an awful lie to get her, but the rage inside me was taking over. I finally stop beating his new prize and look him in the eyes” Derek, you are a waist of space and you will fuck regret the day you fucked with me. Enjoy this little slut because I guarantee you that she will leave you when she finds something better just like you did to me. She doesn’t give a shit about you. I cared about you Derek! I hope she fucks you over like you did to me!" Derek looks down to the floor at the bloody mess that used to be Blondie and back up into my eyes. His eyes are filled with tears and it seems that he a realized what a grave mistake he has made but it’s too late. The love I had for him is gone. He opens his mouth to talk but before he can say a word I turn on my heels and walk toward the exit. “Niki! Niki! I’m sorry please don’t go!” I can hear Derek yelling from behind me. Blondie is crying on the ground. I get to the door and push both of the heavy metal doors open feeling the cold night air on my face.

 

            I let the cool air fill my lungs and tried to stop the tears from falling down my cheeks. I look down at my knuckles and see blood, cuts and bruising. What did I do to her? I can barely remember what happened after I jumped on her. I don’t feel regret, she deserved it. I need to get home before I get caught. I start to walk to my car...wait…where is my car? Shit! That is what happens when you park in the Fire Lane I guess. This night has turned into such a nightmare. The last thing that I want to do is call my mom and tell her my car was towed. Especially since my face is wet with tears and my fits are cut and bruised. She doesn’t approve of violence so I would be grounded forever. I decide that walking home is the best idea right now. I would rather sneak back into the house and clean myself up before I break the news to my parents that my car was towed. Hopefully they never find out about the fight, I
