Dark (The Past Never Changes)

Chapter 1

Kaylee's P.O.V.

I wake up with a massive hang over. What ever happened last night was crazy. Like I don't even remember when I showed up at the party, just that I went. I sigh and turn over.

"KAYLEE!" My room mate, Bree calls.

"WHAT?" I yell back.

She doesn't answer which means she's busy and needs me to come help her. I sigh and walk to my dresser to change cause apparently I didn't do that either last night. I brush my teeth before I walk downstairs and Bree is making eggs and pancakes. I curse her for her way of never having a hangover, no matter how drunk she gets. She slides me some water and pain medication.

"How's your head?" She asks. I glare at her and she laughs.

"What happened?" I ask.

"Well lets just say you didn't miss much." Her face falls.

"B, what's wrong?" I ask.

"Well um, Steven cheated on me.." She says.

"I'm so sorry!" I get up and hug her.

"Okay okay. Mariah and Devin are coming over for breakfast. Their bringing some guys over I guess. They said it's to get me to 'move on'." She laughs. The pounding in my head gets worse by the knock at the door. I get up to get it. As soon as I open it, Mariah and Devin screech then stop and frown.

"You look like shit." Devin opens up freely. Mariah nods.

"Thanks." I say sarcastically. I don't even bother to look at the people behind them. They aren't for me anyways. I turn around and head upstairs to shower.

After showering I pull my hair to the side and scrunch it up, then ruffle it out and let it air dry. I put on a pair of black shorts and a checkered black and white shirt. I spray with perfume and put deodorant on and head down stairs. I walk into the dining room where everyone is sitting and laughing. I try to ignore it.

"Well look who looks better?" Mariah jokes.

"Shut up Riah." I smile.

"So this is Alex, Niall, and Tony." Devin points to who is who. I wave and give a small smile.

"Dude so what happened last night?" Mariah asks.

"Dude, I'm right next to you. You don't have to yell. And honestly, I uh, don't remember." I say trying to replay what happened.

"What do you remember?"

"Uh.. Walking up the steps." I say quietly. They all laugh at me. "Shut up!" I walk into the kitchen.

"Teasing you, huh?" Bree asks with a smirk on her face.

"Yes." I pout my lip and she hugs me.

"At least I don't have to do it now. I live with you!" She pulls back.

"Ha-Ha." I say sarcastically.

"Help me?" She asks but hands me two plates before I can answer. I walk into the dinning room and set the plates in front of M and Dev.

"Thanks guys." They all say, not in unison. I quickly grab mine and Bree's plates.

"Thanks Kay." She smiles softly and I sit down at the end of the table away from everyone, like I usually do.

I don't really like people. At all. I'm a really nice person, so my friends say, but do not expect me to trust you right away. It all started when my parents broke up. My dad kind of just stopped talking to me. We would make plans and he would have to cancel for some stupid reason. As I got older and he missed my 16th birthday party, I kind of stopped trusting everyone but my mom, Bree, Devin, and Mariah. I was mostly upset because my dad's brother came, but my dad didn't because of his crazy new wife. She's always been more important to him than me anyways. And I don't need anyone other than who I have. I'm thankful for them.

At first, Riah and I were supposed to get a place together, but she got fired from her job and I didn't want to live at home anymore and neither did Bree, so she said she would get a place with me. Bree's really annoying sometimes, but that's okay cause she takes care of me when I drink. We really get under each other's skin when we spend too much time together, so I'm glad we both have full time jobs. Bree has blond hair and she's really short. She has pretty green eyes that I wish I could have. She's really beautiful, but she doesn't see it. She always says all of us are prettier than her, yet she has, well had a boyfriend. She still doesn't believe it though.

Devin has short brown hair and dark brown eyes. She's a little taller than Bree and a little shorter than me. She's pretty too, but again, even she doesn't think so. Mariah has natural dark brown hair and light brown eyes. Her hair is shorter too, but it's currently colored a burgundy red. She's a little taller than me, but not too much. And me? I have long medium brown hair and hazel eyes.

"Kaylee!" Bree says loudly.

"Hmm?" I hum.

"Wanna go out tonight?" She asks.

"No, you can go. I want to stay in." I say.

"Okay." She trails off and looks at me apologetically. She knows I don't like going out all the time, but I like that she understands.

"What do you plan on doing?" Niall, I think asks.

"Um, watching movies and eating snacks." I say and look down at my now empty plate of food.

"Mind if I stay in with you? I don't wanna go out either." He asks. I'm a little surprised.

Niall has blonde hair, but you can tell it's died just like Bree's cause of the dark roots. His eyes are really bright blue and he seems to be a couple inches taller than me.

"Uh, Sure. Wanna go to the store with me then? You know, to pick out snacks and movies?" I ask.

"Yeah, when do you wanna go?" He asks. I look at the clock and it's now 11 am.

"What about like 3?" I ask.

"Course. I'm gonna go home for a little and shower. Catch ya guys later." He gets up and leaves.

"He has a thing for you." I think it's Alex that says that. I shrug and get up.

"What ever." I sigh and walk up to my room.
