A boarding school. The only thing promising about this new situation was the parties. Thank you so much Mom and Dad. The only thing you've ever done for my was buy me things. My rich parents could care less about me. They hand me a wallet with a VISA, Master Card, and an Am Ex and send me off to play. I could buy whatever I wanted, as long as I stayed away from them. I was jerked out of my thoughts when the limo stopped in front of the gates to the school. They opened a second later and we drove up the lane. Just before the car stopped, I made sure to check my hair and makeup. I was wearing only mascara and lip gloss, and my outfit was cute but sexy. I was wearing a thin, see through white long sleeved shirt and skin tight faded jeans. My heels were five inch stilettos and white, matching my shirt. I got out of the car when the door opened and grabbed my purse. I waited for the driver to get some of my luggage and took one suitcase myself. I slid my white cased iPhone 3GS into my back pocket and followed him up the stone path to the main doors. We walked to the principal's office and knocked on the door.

"Come in!" She called. I opened the door, not happy about the place one bit. "Ah, Miss Lance. Here is your room number and schedual. I'll have someone show you around after dinner"

"M'Kay." I said, taking the papers from her. "Thank you."

"No problem." She smiled. I smiled back and she pointed us to the Maple section of dorms. I walked there with the help of the driver and collected a lot of eyes from students walking past towards their last class of the day. We found my dorm and then on the second floor we found my room. I shared it with someone named Lindy. There was a picture of her on the door under the whiteboard. Apparently they tacked those up to all the rooms for other students to leave messages. She seemed like she was extremely popular. There were notes all over the board, and she was really pretty. I unlocked the door and walked into a room painted a beautiful shade of burnt orange. It was a hardwood floor with shaggy tan carpet under the two beds there was a note on my pillow. I picked it up and read it quickly.

Ace,

Hey, i guess we're going to be roommates! My name is Lindy, and I can't wait to meet you. I should be in my last class the time you get this, but if you wait for me, i can come over right after and help you unpack and get settled in. I can take you to the dining hall then if you'd like. I can't wait to meet you and get to know you! I hope you like the room, ~Lindy :)

I looked up as the driver dropped off my things just inside the door. "Thank you so much." I smiled.

"No problem." He bowed. I handed him a fifty out of my wallet. "Thank you. Have a good semester." He waved and walked back out the door.

"I'll try." I smiled. He closed the door after himself. I flipped the note over and looked at it.

PS the second dresser is all yours, and i've cleared out half of the closet for you:)

I walked over to the closet and looked inside. She had some really nice style. I opened all seven of my suitcases on my bed. I started unpacking, knowing that there was no way i would finish before she got here. I set out all my makeup first, organizing it on the counter in the room. there were two chairs there and a long mirror with light bulbs on the top. Her makeup was on her end, so I decided that that was what the counter was for. After taking care of all that I started putting my shoes on my shoe rack. I put the heels on the top two shelves and flats and tennis shoes on the bottom. As soon as i closed those two cases and slid them under my bed, the door opened.

"Hello!" Lindy walked in. She was about my height (if I took off the heels) and had blonde hair that was pin straight. I froze. So did she.

"Damn." I said, shaking my head. "We look almost like twins!" I laughed.
