"Hey, Ashby." My friend Shayley, who was sat next to me in our English class whispered.

"Yeah?"

"Phil's having a party at his this Friday, you in?"

"Hell yeah." I nodded with a wide smile, I couldn't say no to a party at Phil's, he always threw the best ones. There was always plenty of drinks, great music, games, jokes and he only ever invited the best people. He made it a law that no douche bags who crashed parties, got too drunk and ended up wrecking the place where allowed, and neither where girl's who clearly went to parties just to get drunk and get laid. We didn't want people ruining our fun after all.

"Awesome." Shayley grinned. "Hey you think you can get some, ya know?"

I chuckled, I knew exactly what he meant...weed. I didn't really smoke it myself, I did every now and then but not often, however my fellow dorm leader sold it on the downlow to seniors, so it was easy for me to get ahold of. "Yeah sure, how much?"

"Uh just an ounce dude and it's only for me, phil and Aaron, I got work Saturday so can't go too crazy."

"Sure I'll speak to Oli later." I nodded. Just then the bell rang singalling class was finally over.

"Okay guys don't forget I want chapters four through til six read by Friday, and to make sure you have there will be a pop quiz on Friday too. Now, off you go." Our English teacher, Mrs. Begin announced loudly over the muttering students, packing away their equipment into their bags.

"What you doing now Ashby?"

"I got to go into work, Sarah has this major interview on Thursday that could mean big things for the paper she has to prepare for, so I said I'd go in after class' and help her out."

"Ah that's cool, well I'll see you Friday then." Shayley smiled, I bid my goodbye and headed back to my dorm to get ready for work.

You're probably wondering why me, a college senior is still living in the dorms, well that's because I couldn't afford to move out of the dorms when we where supposed to, so with help from my tutors I became dorm leader along side Oli and a guy called Harry. It was pretty nifty, I had my own room, small kitchen with a fridge/freezer, small oven and a mirowave and my own shower and bathroom so I didn't have to share the one's on my floor with everyone else.

I was a leader of the north dorms, there was six floors, all with six rooms in total, expect the ground floor, third floor and sixth floor which had a seventh room for the dorm leaders. I was the leader who stayed on the ground floor, Oli was on the third and up on sixth was Harry. I liked our dorms, we didn't get too much trouble with parties, complaints or loud noises, sure we had it occasionally, but nothing compared to what the south and East dorm's suffered with.

"Hey Harry?" I called through his door, knocking on it.

I waited a few seconds before the door opened, "Sup?"

"I got to work, Oli will be back from classes in like an hour, but I won't be back til pretty late I'm guessing. I've left a note on my door to come up to you, or Oli if it's after four for the rest of the night."

"That's cool, you could've text me ya know?" He chuckled.

"No, because I have to give you this too..." I handed over a copy of To Kill A Mockingbird that my English teacher asked me to pass on to him.

"Oh yeah sweet, thanks Al, I had to miss English this morning so yeah, cheers man." He smiled greatfully, taking the book.

"No worries, I'll catch you laters." I nodded and made my way to work.
