As Derrick pulled into the parking lot of OCD, he sighed. He just didn't feel like being at school today. It wasen't like he was avoiding a huge assignment, or test, he just didn't feel like being at school today. To Derrick, the actul part of going to school had gotten alot less exicting to him, unlike how it used to be back in grade nine. He used to have accecptable grades, but over the years, they began to slip, and Derrick was afraid to tell his father and disappoint him. He wanted Derrick to go to Brown, where he was a legacy, but with the grades like his, the only way he would get accecpted was with a sports scholarship, or if his dad gave a a very big donation to the school.

Now, Derrick parked his new black land rover lrx concept, and turned it off. He reached over to the passanger seat, and grabbed his school bag, and then open the door and got out. As he was walking across the parking lot, he heard what sounded like a collision happen behind him. Derrick quickly turned around to see what the commotion was. Well, it was a crash. Someone had backed into someone. Derrick stood still, watching to see who it was, and what would happen next, crashes sometimes are very eventful. As the person walked out of the silver car, he noticed it to be Alicia Rivera. The girl who he had these weird feelings for. He stood there from afar, watching her, talk to the person she had hit -- Layne Abeley! Wow. Within a blink of an eye, he began to hear Alicia scream at the girl, and not even in english, this was when Derrick knew he had to get involved.

Running over to where Alicia and Layne where, he stopped and faced Alicia "Woah, woah. Rivera, calm down," He said to her, putting his hand on her shoulder.

As Alicia walked over toward him, Derrick could feel that feeling inside of him begin to take over. You know, knot your throat up, and magicly create butterflies in his stomach. "Woah, woah, woah. Wait." his mind yelled at him. He fully knew that he shouldn't be feeling like this towards Alicia, this is how it should be when he's around Massie. What was going on. When she reached up to his face, where their noses almost touched, like an eskimo kiss, and she spoke, he was able to say nothing back to her. Maybe all that flirting for all those years wasen't the greatest idea.

As they stood there, within incheds of eachother, Derrick did his best to keep himself composed, and cool, making sure not to do anything stupid that he would regret. "I really doubt that that car cost more than my house." He said, adding a small smirk in the end. He took his words kind of slow, but he was able to make them all out, without stumbling. "Just look at my ride. Its a friggen' Land Rover. That thing cost a few dollars."

Now what happened next, Derrick could of lived without. As she turned around, he caught her smell, and oh how she smelled. And then as she did her flirtatious walk, Derrick did his best to look away, looking at anything to take away his attention from her. He then heard Alicia speak, but he didn't know what she said, and then before he knew it, he saw Layne bolt it, "Um..." He said, pointing at Layne as she ran off. Helpful much?

"Well, I'm doing fantasic, and I can't wait for the school day to be over." Derrick said, with a small chuckle, "And yourself?"

"Ohh...well, I bet it was defiantley worth more then...You."

The grin that was on Derrick's face flew away. Now not only was Alicia saying his car was worth nothing, she was saying that he was worth nothing. Yes, Alicia had the attidue, and needed to be best, but what she said cut him, and it hurt deep. "Why thanks Rivera. That means alot, you know, that its worth more than me." He said scarstictly, with no emotion on his face.

"Don't worry about her. I'll find a way to destory her... I think I will either dose her in horse raddish, or cut her hair off in woodshop. Or both."

Now, Derrick wasen't one for utter humilation, but the sound of Alicia ruining Layne sounded good. It sounded more than good... It sounded awesome, but he wasen't about to sound his opinion on the situation. He would remain as nutural as possiable.

Derrick grabbed his arm, after being pushed by Alicia. "What was that for?" He asked, with a laugh in his voice, "Just two more years and we're outta this place... and then onto collage." Derrick's voice died by the end of his sentance. He was exicted to get out of this drama filled school, but then, what would he do. He wouldn't be the alpha dog anymore... and would he even get into an Ivy like his dad wanted?
