Chris's POV

Five friends. I told Jess she has five friends. If she has only five friends, what does that make me?
I wake up with a start. Someone's knocking on my door. I get up groggily. Probably that mean red headed lady. I open the door and groan. "What?" My eyes open wide when I see who's outside my door. "Fin, Kuntakinta! What are you guys doing here?" I ask surprised. Fin smirks and looks me up and down. "Dude you look good without a shirt." He says and I blush. I was only wearing some boxers. "Here," Kuntakinta says abruptly and shoves some clothes and boots. "Thanks?" Fin laughs. Then he whispers something into my ear, "what are friends for?" My eyes open wide again. "How do you know?" I ask panicking. "I have my sources." He smirks and him and Kune leave me alone. I close the door and go to shower. The cool water makes all my problems disappear. I brush my teeth and get dressed. A white T-shirt, army pants and tall black boots. Huh. I wonder what the occasion is? I look in the mirror one more time then leave my room. On the way to the elevator, someone bumps into me. "Sorry." She apologizes. "Its okay." I reply and look into her eyes. She has red hair and deep, deep grey eyes. "Uh. Is something wrong?" She asks me and waves her hand in front of my face. I shake my head to snap out of my thoughts. "No. Nothings wrong. I didn't catch your name." She twirls a lock of her red hair. "Amy." I smile. "Nice to meet you Amy. I'm Chris." We shake and then she runs off. "Who was that?" I hear someone ask. I jump and look behind me. "Jess?" She looks hurt. "That was Amy." I reply. She nods. I can tell something's up. Was she......jealous? "Are you okay?" She nods again then links arms with me. "Come on let's go to breakfast."

{Dining Hall}

We walk into the dining hall, looking for our friends. At that moment, Ella walks in. "Hey Chris, Jess." We both tell her good morning and then continued our search. "Hey uh, Jess we need to talk." Ella suddenly tells Jess. "About what?" Jess asks. "Its about yesterday." Jess smiles at her and they go in the corner to talk. I resist the urge to eaves drop but its eating me alive not knowing what they're saying so to distract myself, I go get Jess and I some breakfast.

Ella's POV

"What's up?" Jess asks me looking concerned. I sigh. Should I tell her like this? "Jess. Yesterday Fin told me about my past." Jess looks at me, expecting me to continue. I take a deep breath. "He told me that he and I were dating and that we were in love. He told me about how I used to paint and draw and...." I take another deep breath. "Did you know that my dad was in the army." Jess shakes her head. "Well he was and he died in battle." I choke on the word die. "Fin told you all of that?" I nod. She sheds a few tears and I do the same. Then I feel someone else's presence. "Fin," he gives me a small smile and wipes away my tears. "Let's get some breakfast." He suggests and I agree. We walk away from Jess whom now is crying. Why is she crying? I'm the one who lost my dad. Fin leads me to the food table and fulls my plate and then does the same to his. I get a table and have a seat. Fin joins me not long afterwards. "Are you okay?" He asks worried. I nod but don't look at him. He bites his lip. "What do you want to say?" I ask but don't look at him. "Nothing." He says back barely audible. I sigh and look at him. His eyes are beautiful. Blue and intense. Soon after, Kuntakinta and Belle join us. "Hi." Belle greets and Kune nods his head towards us. Zayn and Zoe join us afterward. Zayn has frosty blue eyes and messy dark hair. Zoe looks just like him but younger. I decide to start a conversation. "Where are you two from?" I ask taking a bite of bacon. "Antarctica." They reply in unison. I hear Fin snicker. "You're kidding." I kick him in the shin. "Ow!" At that moment Chris and Jess join us. They look so cute together! Chris is holding two plates and Jess is holding nine notebooks. They both sit down. "What's up?" I ask. Jess lays the notebooks out on the table. "Each one has a name on it. Look for yours," is all Jess says. We all look around. I find mine and open it up. A picture of myself is printed onto the first page and below it is all my information.
