-Picture above is Andrea-

*I've got a fire for a heart, I'm not sacred of the dark you've never seen it look so easy...*

I hear my alarm going off from the bedside table. Of course I set the alarm song to Drag Me Down, I mean why not, today was the first day of the rest of my life or some shit like that my parents told me when I left for college. Today I started my freshman year, here at the University of California and I was anything but thrilled.

"Turn that alarm off!" my roommate Emily yells from the other side of the room.

"I will geez... don't strain yourself." I say as I climb out of bed.

"Well you know I don't have an early class today so I need to sleep. Unlike you who has a 8:00am class; like seriously what freshman picks a class that early." says Emily pulling her blankets up and over her head.

"Calm down you can sleep all afternoon cause I'm going to be out in classes all morning then I'm swinging by the music store to see if they have any open job positions."

"Good now get your shit together and leave me to sleep." Emily quickly remarks before I hear light snores coming from under her blankets.

Gosh she sure is a grumpy morning person, I'll have to remember that for the next 8 months, while I'm rooming with her. I quickly grab my shower products and a change of clothes before rushing out of the dorm and down to the showers.

Luckily my class is so early that there are very few other girls in the showers as I quickly strip down rinsing my body and washing my hair. As I am standing in the shower I hear a commotion followed by lots of laughter, I don't think anything of it and continue showering when I finish I grab my fluffy white towel and wrap it around my body and pull back the curtain.

Where to my horror I find my change of clothes gone. I frantically look around the showers to try and find my clothes, realizing now that, thats what all the laughter was I had heard. Some bitches had stolen my clothes and stashed them who knows where. I don't have time to deal with this right now, not on my first day of classes. Then suddenly about four of your typical fake, plastic, high school bitches come strolling into the showers with smug grins on there faces.

"What the hell" I scream at them. "Where are my clothes!"

The first one with gross, over-dyed hair says, "We threw them in the boys shower room. Good luck getting them back." She and her groupies all throw there heads back and laugh at me.

"Ugh, I don't have time for this shit." I yell back. I have no choice but to go into the men's shower rooms and search for my clothes now. I pray there are no guys in there as I gently push open the men's door. As soon as I take about three steps into the shower room my body collides with someone else causing me to fall to the floor, luckily my grip is like iron around my towel covering my body.

"Fuck...What the hell!" a deep voice groans across from me . I quickly look up to see a guy with dark brown hair, dripping with water. Thank god he didn't drop his towel either but damn he sure does have the best abs I've ever seen.

"Did you not hear me?" he questions and I quickly pull my eyes up to meet his.

"I am so sorry but I am just trying to find my clothes some girls said they threw them in here."

"Oh really?" he smirks at me, narrowing his eyebrows. Clearly not believing that as the reason I'm in here.

"NO nothing like that I am really just trying to find my clothes. Have you seen them?" I blush and tell him. I quickly walk over to the hangers to check for any clothes seeing as this guy and I are the only ones in hear.

"What did you say your name was" he questions.

"I didn't but its Andrea" I say as I quickly stand up and turn around to almost collide with him again. He must have crossed the room to stand by me as I was searching for my clothes.

"Well Andrea, I'm Cameron" he says glancing down at me as I pull my towel tighter around me. "And seeing you, right now, dressed in nothing but that towel is seriously screwing with my head right now..." he groans. I take a step back till my calves run into a bench and I stop.

Struggling to find my voice, I stammer "Lllllook I don't know what you think your going to get right now Cameron but I just need to find my clothes and I'll go."

"Why go when this is so much fun..." he says leaning into me, his eyes flicking down to my lips. My heart rate quickens and my breathing shortens... hopefully Cameron doesn't notice. Why is this total stranger sparking these feelings in me right now?

But instead of my lips he leans to grab something behind me and leans back up to show me. "I believe these are yours." He says placing my clothes into my hands.

"Thanks " I say and quickly dart away from him and as I am just about to exit out of the shower room Cameron says, "I'll see you around Andrea, hopefully in the shower again" I turn back and see a sly smirk turn up the corner of his mouth.

And with that I turn and race out of the showers. As soon as I get to my dorm I shrink to the floor, ugh what just happened. Whatever I will never see Cameron again, and I push the thought of him out of my mind. Shit I still have class to get to, and so I quickly get dressed and grab my book bag and race off to my morning classes.

After I finish all my classes for the day I head over to the music store on campus. As soon as I enter the store I head straight for the counter.

"Excuse me, I would like to apply for a job here" I say hoping to get one of the workers attention. When out of the back room walks one of the workers, a hardcore looking guy with tattoos all over.

"Hey, what do you need?" the worker says.

"Hey, I'm Andrea and I was hoping to get a job here... are you hiring?"

"I'm Nate and of course, we are always hiring, especially for a pretty lady like you" he says walking around to meet me on the other side of the counter.

"Ah...Great, can I fill out an application now?" I say looking down at my feet then back up to him.

"Oh course here you can fill this out and I'll give it to my supervisor for ya"

"Thanks, Nate" I say and quickly fill out the application and hand it back to him.

"We'll be in touch, thanks for stopping in Andrea. See you soon".

"Bye, Nate. I look forward to hearing from you" I wink at him and head out the door and back to the dorm. Why did I just wink at him? What were you thinking Andrea?

As soon as I get back to the dorm I throw down my bag and flop onto my bed and fall asleep immediately. Today was the craziest first day ever, yet as I fell asleep I couldn't get Cameron; the mysterious shower guy off of my mind.
