It took Ali and I an hour to finally get ready. Afterwards, we walked down to the gym to actually socialize. Socializing, not really our thing.

Then again, changing things up in college is what college is about, right?

I think I'm doing college right. Who let me college? I'm not sure if I want to college anymore.

Damon gets worse by the second and I'm not looking forward to seeing him tonight. Hopefully he doesn't come. Most likely, he's not very social either.

The first song that was played was on of my favorites. It was Weightless by All Time Low. Ali and I were dancing like crazy people. Not a lot of people even knew the song. The group that we met the other day wasn't even at the dance, giving me slight disappointment.

I don't know 98 percent of pop music, I'm more of a punk rock and alternative rock stuff. That's how I met Ali. I saw her at a Pierce The Veil concert and knew she went to my middle school. We've been best friends ever since.

Other than the very few songs we danced to, we also just sat at tables and talked since they had free food. While in the middle of a conversation about which lead singer from each bad was cutest, I looked up and Damon comes walking in the gym.

I groaned and Allison turned around. "He's here?" I nodded and she rolled her eyes. "I swear, it's like he's obsessed with you!" I nodded before banging my head on the table.

Ali sighed before nudging me. I looked up and Damon was walking over to me. I banged my head on the table again and I felt and hand on my shoulder. "Stop, you're going to make yourself stupid and lose your mind." I stopped and glared at him.

"Why are you here?"

"I thought I'd make sure you're...you know...alive," he glared at me and it was a cold, hard glare.

"What makes you think I'd be dead?"

"You don't know anything about this place. Anything can happen."

"What are we in? A horror movie? Or college?"

"Both," he grabbed my arm and started dragging me to the door. I tried pulling my arm out of his grasp, only for it to get tighter. Great.

He's probably dragging me out to the middle of nowhere so he can murder me.

God, I'm so paranoid.

"Let go! Stop, Damon!" He growled before he started to run. I struggled to keep up and soon enough, we were running into the dorm room.

"What the hell," I slap him after he lets go of my arm and he doesn't even react, just frowned.

"I want you to be safe," he says in his I-kinda-want-to-kill-you voice and I roll my eyes.

"Safe from what? Free food and Allison? If so, good job! You've fulfilled your duty! I'm going now," I started to walk towards the door and he grabbed my arm again.

"Look, you may not think I give a shit about you, but I do. Why? Because my father thinks you might leave the college. Believe me, sugar, I wouldn't be this nice if it wasn't for him." He let go and I sigh before going back to the gym.

What just happened?

"I see you're alive and well. What did he want from you?" Allison was waiting at the doors. She intertwined our fingers before walking into the gym and towards the table we were at.

"I don't even know, maybe he's doing drugs," she thought about it before nodding. We sat down and started eating more pizza.

"Seems legit." She said and I nodded in response before casually looking behind Ali to see the one person I'd hoped to never see again.

Claire Smith.

The only one who knew the secret to set me off my edge. The only one who could be so rude, people would die.

Ali looked at me with confusion before turning around and seeing her. She gasped and went to my side, saying things I couldn't make out. A second later, I was being pulled by Ali to the doors that led out back.

"Oh no! Jesus Crist!" I chuckle slightly. We made a joke to pronounce Jesus like if it was a Spanish name and Christ as Crist. Even in the worst times, she would say this.

We started walking towards the football field and notice the group on the field and sitting in the bleachers. My body filled with glee. Finally, some people besides Ali who I can stand. Woo hoo.

**

The rest of the night was like a blur. The last thing I remember was heading to the dorm with Ali. She dropped me off and went to her own dorm. I opened the door and looked at the alarm clock on Damon's night stand.

It was 3:27 and I was surely about to pass out. It didn't even seem this late. It felt like 2ish. I'm usually asleep at decent times. College changes you.

I tugged off my shoes and pulled off my tights before heading to the closet to get my big t-shirt for the night. I walked in the closet and shuffled through my drawer until I found an old Star Wars shirt.

I walked back out and pulled off my dress. I slipped my shirt onto my topless body and started putting my dirty clothes in my small hamper. I'm not going to wear my sleep shorts tonight. I'm way to tired.

I put my hair up in a messy bun before slipping into bed. I pulled the covers all the way up to my neck and the last thing I saw was a dark figure walking in the door. Then, I fell into a dreamless sleep.

Hey kimosabes!

I know what you're probably thinking. 'OH MY GAWD YOU TOTALLY FORGOT ABOUT THIS BOOK! YOU ABANDONED USSSSS!!!' My apologies you guys. A whole bunch has been going on and I haven't had a lot of time on my hands.

I'm sorry the chapter sucks, it's like 3 in the morning and I'm really tired. No judging! I have some exciting news, I'm getting a new puppy and she's a Boston terrier and it's been about 6 years since I lost my Boston terrier, Bailey. She was about 11 or 12 when she had a seizure. It was very hard to cope with her loss, but I did it!

I'll post a picture of what she looks like in the next chapter. Her name is Annie and I'm totes excite. I'm also totes awkward. How do you like the new cover? I'm thinking about having a cover contest soon. Message me for more information. Anyway, follow me, vote, comment, go read my other book, eat healthy, stay away from white vans with 'FREE CANDY' on the side, wash your hands, brush your teeth, you know...the usual stuff.

Bye my young Kimosabes!
