Chapter 1: Natalie Porter

"Ms. Porter....NATALIE PORTER!" said Mr. Starks

 

"Yeah," I said back.

 

"Since we can all tell you are paying attention, please to enlighten us by explaining the assignment."

 

"Sure thing Mr. S, we have to pick a partner and do a powerpoint about our future" 

 

"Looks like Ms. Porter was hald way paying attention class."

 

Everone in class just clapped and laughed. We all know I was not paying attention and that I had just read it off the board. The thing with Mr. Starks was that he wasn't the brightest teacher but he had the best class. He was teaching us useful things. Think we would use out in the real world after graduation.

 

Lets take a few steps back, my name is Natalie Porter. I am a senior at West Bell High School and on less then 2 months I will be graduating school. And don't get me wrong I love school but today I was too busy thinking about my future. I was at the top of my class and was very active at school. More then half of the school loved me and the other half couldn't care less about me. I was ready to be done with high school and move on. I even had a plan set and on top of that list was to graduate high.

 

"Natalie and Aric, you with be partners," said Mr. Starks

 

"So when do you wana work on this?" asked Aric

 

"Just stop by my place after school and lets get this done" I said 

 

Aric Miller was the typical jock, 6 ft tall, blond hair, blue eyes, and amazing body. I only knew that because he was my ex. But now we where friends and he is currently dating my bff Sam. She was crazy for him and I was only dating him to have someone around. So we I noticed Sam liked him more then I did; I stepped aside and let her have him. I love Sam Kirks, she is my bff since middle school. I was new in town and she was the first person to talk to me. We became even closed when my mom passed way in 8th grade. Pretty much after that we became like sister. 

 

"Bring Sam!" I yelled while we walked out of class.

 

"Of course but Kyle better be there" he yelled back.

 

Kyle is my boyfriend. Kyle Bears was they best boyfriend in the world and nothing could change that. 5'10'', dark brown hair, tan, great abs, and bright green eyes; He was prefect.  After Aric and I broke up; Kyle and I started dating. 2 years of dating to be exact. He was truly my other half and the big plus is that my father like him. 

 

As I walked to my locker to swap out books I noticed Kyle standing there with a rose in his hand.

 

"This is for you babe," Kyle said

 

"Thanks baby," I said back while planting a big kiss on with lips. "See you after school, Aric and Sam are coming over."

 

"Sure thing, meet me at my car" He said as he walked away.

 

Finally class was over and I walked right out of school and straight to Kyle's car. He was already there waiting to me to get in so we could leave.

 

"Took you long enough" He said I  closed the door. And we drove off to my house. 

 

The drive to my house was about 30 min aways from school. We lived outside of town because my dad like how quite it is. My dad had plenty of acers of land and he used most of it. Our closest neighbors where probly half a mile away. Which I didn't mind because when I had parties no one would bother. My dad is CEO of a big car company. He had plenty of money but that didn't mean I was allowed to do or have as I pleased.

 

"I'm home!" I yelled

 

"I'm in the kitchen Alie" He yelled back

 

Kyle and I walked into the kitchen. And my dad was making food.

 

"You might want to make more then that papa"

 

"Let me guess, I need enough for 5 people"

 

"Yup, it's five"

 

"Great, because that what I made. Now go get cleaned up and I'll take the food the the study room."

 

"Your good pa, how did you know"

 

"Sam called and told me there were coming over to do homework"

 

"Sorry I didn't call I...."

 

"I know you forgot, now go and get cleaned up"

 

 

...........4 hours later..............

 

 

 

"Finally done!" I said. 

 

"Yeah, it's about time" said my dad "You kids better be getting home it's dark out and I don't want you parents to be worried."

 

"Ok Mr. Porter" they all said.

 

"See you at school babe," said Kyle and kissed me goodnight.

 

After that night the time few by and finally graduation was tomorrow. 

 

 

 

 

Chapter 2: The Real World

Graduation came and went. I graduated with honors which made my father very proud. It seemed crazy to me that I was done with high school but beleive me I was happy to cross/check that off my list. 

 

My list stopped after #4 because I'm not sure that I want to do after I start college. I mean there are so many things that could happen. Now back to my list; time to start #2. Finding a job was way easier said then done. I have never had a job since my dad never let me work while I has in his school. While Kyle, Sam, and Aric all had job. They all had what I didn't which was there own money.

 

"Alie come down, dinner is ready" Dad said.

 

As I walked into the dinning room I noticed the table was set for 3.

 

"Pa, do we have company?" I asked. Just then my dad and a short dark haired woman walked in to sit down.

 

"Hi Natalie, I'm Robin" She said, "It's finally great to meet you, your dad talked about you all the time."

 

"Um, not trying to be rude but who are you?" I said back in the nicest way I could. I didn't care that my dad was seening someone. But the fact that I didn't know anything about her and she know a lot about me was so not ok.

 

"Alie please don't be rude, this is Robin my girlfriend" my dad said.

 

"Ricky, its ok." She said

 

"Ricky??" I said with the my mouth open

 

"Natalie...sit down and eat!" He said.

 

"Look Ricky, I'm very happy for you. It's about time you found someone, mom would be happy" I said. My dad just looked at me as if he couldn't believe what I had just said.

 

"Thanks kiddo" he said smiling.

 

After dinner Robin and I sat in the living room talking about my plans for the summer. We talked about how I couldn't find a job because I had zero experience thanks to my dad. Robin was nice and must say I did like her for my father. I could tell he had left us alone so we could talk and 1 hr later we said good bye.

 

"I'll call you if I hear about any job openings Natalie," said Robin.

 

"Thanks Robin," I said as she walked out the door.

 

............2 days later..........

 

It was early Wednesday morning when I got a call about a job. I missed the call because I never answered the phone that earlier.

 

They left a voicemail that said:

"Ms. Porter, this is Mark at West Computer Repair and my friend Robin told me you were looking for a job. If your interested the job is your."

 

After listening to the voicemail I decided to get up to get dressed and go apply. My dad and Mr. Starks always said that applying for a job and person makes you look better. I started looking through my walk in closet to decide what to where. I decided on black dress pants, flate silver shoes, and a silver and black top. I curled my hair and put only the basics in make up. To me basics were eye liner, blush, and lip gloss. And I looked professional. As I went down the stairs and out the door my dad reminded me not to be home too late. I don't think he notcied how early I left since he hadn't had his coffee. 

 

As I walked in to West Computer Repair, I noticed only one other girl work there and everyone else were guys.

 

"Welcome to West Repair, how can we help you today" she said.

 

"I'm Natalie Porter, I'm here to see Mark" I said back with a smile.

 

"Welcome new girl, I'm so happy to finally have another girl working here"

 

"Thank you," I said back as she signaled me to follow her to the back.

 

Without even trying I had a job thanks to Robin. I was excited but a bit confused because I hadn't even talk to Mark.

 

"Mark, this is Natalie" She said.

 

"I see you got my voicemail and decided to come to work," He said joking.

 

"Yeah, sure why not" I said back.

 

It was no joke, I really did stay but not to "work". I filed out paper work and got loging and my new ID for work. It was going to be a long week rest of the week since I had to train.

 

MONDAY

 

Finally all done with my training and I get to work on my own. My work hours were good, 36 hrs a week and pay was $10.00 per hr. It was a perfect summer job for me and when school started I would be able to continue to work there. I had my first real world job and I was happy that I would be to learn a lot from this place.

 

Working had kept me pretty busy and Kyle and I only talked when we could. Our relationship seemed so perfect in high school but now I didn't know where things were going.

 

I heard my phone ringing while I was getting ready to go to work. Finally Kyle had taken the night off so we could hang out after I got out of work. I had a half day since I was filling in a lot for other and they didn't want to pay me over time. Finally I would get to see my love, Kyle.

 

....Texting Kyle....

 

Kyle: Hey baby, I outside your job. Could you please hurry.

 

Me: I'll be out in 10 mins

 

Kyle: Fine, take your time. But you said you would be out at 1 and it 1:20

 

Me: You were late, so hold on

 

I finally finished closing my last ticket and I was starting to question if going out was a good idea. I hadn't seen Kyle in weeks since he was busy at work and never had time for us. And the time he is off he wants to start off fighting.....Ohhhh how i hate him complaining sometimes.

 

i walked outside and Kyle was sitting in his car playing on his phone.

 

"Finally, you're out" he said.

 

"Yup, so what do you wana go do?" I said back

 

"I actually have a surprise for you babe," He said winking back at.

 

He started to drive and we talked about how we have been doing just caughting up before we got to where every we were going. I few minutes later he made
