Chapter 2
Aria's POV
*** FLASHBACK ***
I shoved open the double doors with all the energy I had left in me. Sweat was dripping down my forehead, my lips were bleeding, my knuckles were bruised and so was my face. This time it was not like before; this time I meant everything I did, every single thing filled with anger and hatred; this time there was no stopping me; this time will not be the last. I took out the cancer stick and put it between my lips, taking a long drag in as I let my lungs fill with smoke; I reached into my back pocket, took out my piercings and put all nine of them in. This is me and no one can change me.
*** FLASHBACK OVER ***
"BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP!" I rolled over and whacked my alarm until it stopped repeating the same annoying tune; I guess I will never learn my lesson. Every morning I wake up wishing that I didn't stay up on my phone all night, but I always forget ... well more like decide to ignore it when it comes to going to sleep. After rolling around for the next ten minutes and contemplating on whether I should get up or not, I force myself out of bed with my duvet wrapped around me; whilst trudging down the stairs, my mind goes back to New York and the past I had there. Quickly, I push it out my head and instead think about my fresh start; I have moved to a new house, in a new town, in a new country, which is the opposite of where I lived before.
Once I arrive at my natural habitat, the kitchen, I scavenged through the cupboards looking for my cereal, but to my luck there is only seven and a half Coco Pops Hoops left; this is why I don't share my food with people. Disappointed, I grab an apple and a banana from the fruit bowl and head upstairs to get changed and ready for the new seven-week term coming up at school. If someone had mentioned the word 'school' to me around a month ago, I would have laughed in their face and walked off, but since I am not the same person as I was like in New York, I'm not that bugged about going to school, as I actually have proper friends who have changed me for the better.

The bell had finally rung to indicate that the school day was over and I rushed past everyone as fast I could, attempting to get to my locker before the corridors were filled with the sweaty bodies of students. I had to get to my house as soon as possible and get changed and leave, because my cousin was throwing a huge party tonight and I was going to DJ for him; he had already spent money on alcohol, dance crew entertainments and renting out a place and it would have been a shame and waste of money to get a DJ when he already had his own set and me!
After a sweaty journey on the London underground, I finally turned up to my cousin's flat he had rented out for the week just for the party. Yes a whole week for a party; it's one of those parties where you invite everyone in your contacts who invites everyone in their contacts and so on and you refresh in the morning and get smashed at night. The party is going to last five whole days.
I decided to set up the DJ set whilst my cousin and his best friend (whose name was something like Ethan) got the drinks and food ready for tonight. Just I finished setting up and was about to make a new remix, just because I was bored, I saw a group enter; I think it was street dance crew my cousin was going on about and they looked pretty young too, their ages varied from thirteen to twenty.
I went back to remixing and every now and then I couldn't help but look at the guys practising and may I add shirtless. There was these two that were together a lot and oh my god they were eye candy especially the one with the black earrings. He was a brunette, had green eyes, five foot something nearly six, had his ears pierced and was wearing a snapback. I nearly melted when I saw those back muscles and those veins and eyes; somebody hold me I'm about to melt, but then I reminded myself that I need to stay away from them, so I finished off my remix and went to get myself a few shots. I know I'm underage and stuff but I'm better than the old me. I guess I did start drinking when I was thirteen but.... I have no reason so I'm just going to get myself shots.
Later on that night
"LICK IT! LICK IT! LICK IT! WOOOO!" so here I am now, licking Vodka off Theo's abs. I found out he's the guy from earlier best friend and they're also part of the crew. At the moment we're playing truth or dare and to be honest they have some pretty shit stuff like the usual you know, make out, 7 minutes in heaven, licking Vodka of body parts, making out and giving each other hickeys. It's not like the dares that I did with the people in my past. Anyway the past is in the past. Once I did my dare I put my phone (which was attached to the DJ set) on my remix shuffle and went outside for some air.
"Hey," said a voice behind me.
I turned around and replied. "Hey."
"Pretty sick remixes back there. Did you go to DJing classes?
"Haha no. Kinda taught myself and got a bit of help from my cousin."
"That's cool you should teach me one day. I've always wanted to learn how to DJ."
"I will but in one condition."
"What?"
"I saw you doing that trick with your skateboard that had like a dance twist to it, so I was wondering if you'll teacher me."
"Sure. Can you skate though?"
"Yupp!"
"Then we have a deal."
"Deal!" we stood there for a few seconds just taking in our surrounding.
"When you were licking Vodka off my best friend and throughout the whole game, I noticed something different about you. What's your story?"
"That..." I waited for him to say his name.
"Jai."
"That, Jai is for me to know and for you to find out honey."
"I will Aria, I will." And with that he walked out after leaving a peck on my cheek.
There was something about him that made my brain hurt. Anyway how did he know my name?
