Chapter 1

    "Happy Birthday to youuuuuu!" Everyone around me sang. I blew out my candle and made a wish. I wish for this to be a good year. After I made the wish I realized it was pretty broad, but oh well, not like it would come true anyway.

    Honestly, I loved birthdays. Other people's birthdays. The awkward feeling of having happy birthday sung to you and opening gifts while simultaneously reacting in your head how you really feel and then out loud what the person wants to hear... Too much pressure.

    But this year would be different, I just knew it. Not only is my birthday January 1st, making it a fresh start in a way, but I'm turning 21.

    For most people, this age symbolizes freedom, and drinking for the first time, so you could only imagine the shock on my mother's face when my dad gave me my "first shot" and I took it without a disgusted face afterwards.

    "Y/N M/N White.. care to explain?" She said, as my dad, uncle and brother laughed in the background.

    "Give her a break should I remind you of all the stuff you did before you were 21?" Aunt Marie raised her eyebrows at my mom with a smirk.

    "I love you guys." I said between gasps of air during my laughter. "We should all take a shot together."

    "Hell yeah!" Walter Jr screamed with a vodka bottle already in his hand. While my mom scolded at him I threw a wink.

    Uncle Hank poured the shots, "to a New Year." Gulp.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    "You've met someone." The dog said.

    "What?" I muttered.

    "Your wish is gonna come true just don't continue to be stuipid ok or els- beep beep BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP."

    I opened my eyes to a blindingly bright room and my alarm going off. "Rise and shineeee." Alisha sung in a off key tone while opening the blinds.

    I slammed my hand over the clock."I think I'm gonna throw up."

    "Oh, don't move I'll get a garbage bag, hold on!" Alisha rushed out of the room.

    The thing is, Alisha isn't just a friend, she's my drug dealer, so waking up to her in my room is slightly concerning. Ugh, my head is killing me.

    "Here." She handed me the bag, and I sat up, sitting on the edge of my bed.

    "Thanks. So uh.. what exactly are you doing in my house?"

    "You don't remeber?"

    I stared at her blankly. The hell is she talking about?

    "I had a couple friends come over and we all had a party. Don't worry your house isn't trashed everyone was respectful. Your telling me you don't remeber anything?"

    "No... What did I take?"

    "Well.. we all had a little," she made a snorting motion off her finger, "and we were drinking... The usual.. weird you don't recall anything though, my stuff is never laced."

    The last that comes to mind is my birthday, the rest is a blur."What day is it?"

    "The third."

    So I must have spent new years day with my family, and then partied with Alisha and her friends the next day... I just don't remember any of it.

    "Unfortunately you don't remeber the amazing time we had, but look at this." Alisha grabbed something from off my nightstand, with a huge smile. "My friend gave you his number."

    "Alot of guys give me their numbers what's the big deal about that one?"

    "Oh goodness where do I even start? He's not just my friend he's my boss.. do you know what that means?"

   "No...."

   "Do I need to spell it out for you? HE'S RICH! Not only that he's really handsome too."

    "Are you getting some kind of raise for promoting him like this? I'm sure he can go get a prostitute or something, I need a drink."

    I haven't had a boyfriend since 12th grade in highschool. It was misery honestly, the jealousy, the tears, the obsession. Im not ready to date again, even if that was three whole years ago. I stumbled to my fridge and chugged the first liquid in sight, some Sunny-D. Refreshing.

    "I'm gonna head out Y/N, I'll see you sometime soon." The front door slammed shut, and I heard a gasp.

   Bang! Bang! Bang!

   Without time to go see who was banging at my door, the person on the other side invited themselves in started running towards me.

    Oh shit.
