*Layla's POV*

As I lay in bed on my first night of collage I honestly could not wipe the smile off my face; I was finally free! My whole life I have been constantly abused by not only my parents but everyone at school, and at times my extended family but now as I lay in my cosy dorm room at California State University (A/N- I don't know if this is an actual collage so please don't yell at me ;) ), I was finally happy and although I knew I would never truly fit in I was at peace for the first time in my life.

Suddenly, there was a loud knock at the door, "shit" I whispered, I didn't expect a roommate and I knew no one else would ever need or want to bother me. As I approached the door the usual anxiety kicked in and I considered staying silent and hopping back into bed but before I could even think twice a feminine voice hollered, "I know you're in there, please let me in!", well there goes that plan. Eventually I built up enough courage to open the door but immediately regretted my decision. Standing in front of me was a flawless, model-like girl who immediately shouted, "oh my god! I have a roommate!" and pulled me in for a hug, 'just perfect' I thought sarcastically. I hated anyone outgoing and perfect, it always made me feel like crap and automatically knew she would force a friendship in which I really didn't need or even want. "My name is Casey, and you are?" "Uh, um.. L..Layla" I timidly stuttered out. Great now I look like a freak! "Great! I am so glad we are rooming together, I know we will be best of friends in no time! I am just going to go ahead and dump my stuff down and head down to administration to pick up my schedule, do you want to come?" "Uh, nah its fine, I already picked mine up and need to continue unpacking anyway" I quickly muttered. "Awh, okay that's fine. I'll be back in a couple minutes then we must go out together for dinner, I need to get to know you!" she exclaimed hurriedly and before I even had a chance to politely refuse she was already out the door. "Just perfect", I muttered under my breath sarcastically.

Before I knew Casey was back and dragging my out of the room, "Come on Lay, I want to get out for dinner, I'm starving and I have too much to talk to you about" Casey hissed at me, but of course in a friendly way. "Arg, fine but you owe me one I said quietly" before pushing her hand off my forearm and quickening my pace to keep up with her. "Where are we even going?" I asked suddenly remembering I hadn't even thought to ask this yet. My anxiety grew as we got closer and closer to our destination and before I knew it we where in front of, what I believe to be, one of the scariest and unnecessary places on earth. Fuck you Casey...
