C H A P T E R 1:
I set the cardboard boxes on the floor near my bed. I have yet to figure out who's my roommate. "Kara! You don't leave your old women stranded out where she can't find you." Mom complains. I rolled my eyes.
"You look so much like you father." Mom whispers, touching my cheek. I give a small smile. My Dad was in the military. But he died a few months back. "I miss him." I say softly. "I do too." Mom says.
I begin to sort and unpack my belongings. "I have an appointment. I'll see you soon." Mom says, kissing my cheek. I nearly fold my cloths in my side of the dresser. When I was finished with my cloths, I moved to the pictures.
I reach into the box and pull out the first picture I grabbed. I smile, and sit on my bed and stare at the picture of my father and I on Christmas. I skim my thumb over the glass where my father's face is.
"You must be Kara. I am Emily." Emily says, sitting next to me on the bed. "Hi." I whisper, continuing to stare. "Is that your father?" Emily asks. I nod. "He died a few months ago. He was in the military. " I say, setting the picture down onto the nightstand next to my bed.
"Oh I am sorry to hear that." Emily chirps. "Yeah." I say, standing up and continuing to unpack the pictures I choose to take with me. "So the football team is having a party and I was able to get a small group to come. Do you want to come?" Emily asks, watching me unpack.
"That'll be fine." I say, hanging a picture of my dog and I. I put my packing on hold and choose a dress to wear to the party. "Red or blue." I ask, holding both dresses to my body. Emily giggles, and points to the blue dress. I nod and throw the red dress onto my bed.
I change my bra and panties set. I than change into the blue dress. I pull out a pair of black heels. I grab my wand, and patiently curl each strand of hair. I than apply little amounts of make up to my face. "I am ready." I say, looking over to see Emily in my red dress. "I want it back." I say grabbing a mini purse and my phone.
I step out of the car as soon as it comes to a stop. I could hear music blasting from the outside. Cups and drunk people out in the front. I walk up the path to the front door. I enter the wild frat house.
I walk towards the keg and pour myself a cup of beer. People grinding on each other. Making out, and talking. "Hey cutie." An attractive man stalks up to me. I give him a smile.
"I am Kara." I coo, taking a sip of the beer. "I am Ashton. What's a pretty lady doing alone at a party like this?" Ashton asks. "I actually came with my roommate but she ditched me for some guy." I say, watching Emily laughing at a guy's jokes.
"What year are you in?" Ashton asks, partially slurs. "I am in my fresh men year." I state. He nods. "I am in my last year. I am in football." He says. I nod. "That's nice. Planning to go to the NFL?" I ask, taking a swift drink of my beer.
"Yes. I plan to be drafted." Ashton shouts. "That will be nice." I say. Ashton nods. When Emily runs up and pulls me onto the dance floor. "Let's dance." She screams. I move my hips to the beat.
After several minutes of dancing, strong pair of arms wrap around my waist. I wrap my arms around the guy's neck. Emily sends a wink my way.
When the guy is ripped off of me. I spin on my heels. There I see Ashton fuming standing between the guy and me. "Ashton what the hell man?" The guy shouts. Ashton doesn't respond and they have some type of stare down. I take a step forward. Ashton storms off, and disappears somewhere.
Emily shoots me a weird look. I gave my shoulders a shrug. "I am Matt. But Ashton has laid his mark on you." Matt points out. "What the fuck?" I snap. My nails digging into the palm of my hand.
"I am going back to the dorms." I say into Emily's ear. She nods and tangles her arm with mine.
By the time we got back and gotten ready for bed, Emily was out. I sigh and climb under the covers. I lay my head onto my pillow. I close my eyes.
The next morning I woke up to my alarm. I roughly push my hand to silence the alarm clock. I sit up in bed, stretching. I place my feet on the wooden floors. I slowly walk to the bathroom where I take a quick shower. I massage the shampoo into my hair. I rinse after feeling good. I brush my teeth and hair. I quickly put it in a high pony.
I walk to my side of the dresser and put on jeans and a crop top. I slip on a pair of white flats. I grab my bag and slip out the door. I make my way to campus. Luckily I don't get lost.
I make my way to my first class. Law enforcement. I open the door, to see the professor sitting at his desk. "Hello Professor Holen." I greet. Mr. Holen looks up from his desk. "Hello. Please sit anywhere." Mr. Holen says.
I make my way to the front row, and set my stuff down.Input my phone on silent. I type a quick massage to my mom.
Missing you. Starting class. :) love you.
I send the message and click out of messages. I click Crossy Roads and pick my favorite character. I play distracting my time until class starts. Students file in, laughing with their friends that were in this class.
I resume my game not paying attention to who sits next to me. "Class is about to begin. I ask you to put you cell phones on silent and away." Mr. Holden says loudly. I put my phone away and get out my supplies that I need.
I look to my right to see a girl around my age. When I look to my left. I gasp. Sitting next to me is Ashton. "What are you doing here?" I whisper under my breath. "I took this class since my freshmen year Kara." Ashton whispers in my ear.
I snap my mouth shut remembering that we are in class. Than I feel slight poking on my thigh. I flash a glare towards his way. He snickers, and writes his notes pretending that he's not doing anything. I roll my eyes.
When I feel Ashton's cold breath on my naked neck. It sent chills down my spine. "Stop." I hiss, clutching my pen as I write the notes that Mr. Holen is writing on the broad. I sigh just wanting this class to be done and over with.
Today is going to be a long day.
