Cora Quinn, just your average 15 year old orphan. She loves music and animals and reading fanfiction, but she's already sure that she'll never get anywhere in life. At least that's what everyone tells her.
Her parents left her at Penshallow Orphan...
AN: drug mention/ sexual assault and just generally a more mature tone (Chapter 5) - - -
Five weeks into school and everything was going pretty good, no one bugged me and Arlo kept me close at all times. In fact, tonight he offered to have me come over to his house, apparently he was throwing some kind of celebratory party. For what? Dunno know, but I'm not gonna turn down the first and most likely only party I'll be invited to. As soon as I told my dads I got invited out, they went crazy. I was automatically hauled off to the closest mall and spent hours picking out an outfit along with getting my nails done and my hair styled, Jack figured to go big or go home. At the end of the trip I was in love with my look.

As soon as we all got home I texted Arlo,
-Heyyy it's cora I was double checking that I should be at your house by 10 tonight?
- yepp can't wait to c u, u can come earlier if u want and help set up but up 2 u
His reply came fast and sent me stumbling down the stairs towards Alex. "Hey daaaad I know I said it started at 10 but can you drive me over there now."
"Hmmm I don't know Cora, can I?"
"ohmygod I'll be in the car." I rolled my eyes at him as he began to laugh. I was really starting to feel like part of the family but deep down I always knew jalex would help me fit right in.

As I stepped out of the car I came face to face with the most handsome guy I had ever seen, he had on all black like myself including a leather jacket with small spikes on the shoulders, dirty blonde hair that looked like he just came from the beach, a dark tan, and deep set ocean blue eyes. I've known this guy for 0.3 seconds and I was already swooning; way to go me! *hint sarcasm*.
"You must be Coral?" He put his hand on my back, centimeters above the skin showing from my crop top, making me pull away a little.
