Hi guys, i just wanted to say thankyou for reading this and please add to your reading list. I hope you enjoy it!! :)

Chapter 1

“Oh my god!! Where is it???” I screamed as I tried to find my baby blue dress that I loved. It must be here somewhere I thought maybe my little sister Maggie stole it. She is always trying to steel my clothes, makeup and anything she can get her dirty little hands on.

“Maggie!!!! Where is my baby blue dress!!!” I yelled for my sister.

“What?!” She yells back.

“Don’t you what me missy! Where is that dress?!”

“Ummmmm let me see… go find it yourself” She yells from down stairs.

I just hate my life!! Don’t get me wrong I’m not like super rich or whatever I just have a complicated life. My mother pays no attention to me, my farther is always away on business trips. Oh I almost forgot I have the most annoying little 12 year old sister anyone can have.

“I mean it Maggie I know you have it, please go find it in that black hole you call a room!” I say

“How about no Peyton!!” she says.

“Fine!!” I yell at her.  I go walk towards her room, to find that it’s so much full of crap that I could barely get through the door.

“Holy hell Maggie, you have some crap in here” As I barge through the door I have to try to stop myself from falling over. I quickly try and find that dress and get out, I have Uni at 10am. It’ now 9:45. Oh no I thought to myself, 10 minutes to get ready with 5 minutes to drive there.

I quickly throw my dress on the bed and take a shower, I get out, dry myself and step into my favourite dress. I apply light makeup, grab my flats and quickly straighten my hair as it doesn’t take that long only resting just below my elbows. I run down the stairs towards the kitchen to get my car keys and a banana for breakfast. I lock the door as I watch Maggie faking sick, seriously lucky bitch. I hop into my blue Suzuki Swift and drive to freedom which is my University. The University of Sydney that is. And if you haven’t guessed already yes my favourite colour is blue.

Don’t get me wrong I hate the load of work that has to be done but I do love it there, studying Accounting. I hop out of car, as I arrive at University looking around for a familiar boy that is my best friend. I see him coming as I turn around. He is wearing denim jeans and a light red t- shirt. He has freckles on his face which makes him look younger, amazing brown eyes, gorgeous light brown hair and he has the perfect body with girls lining up to date him. But he doesn’t go for them as he says it wouldn’t be fair to ditch me.

“Hey Peyton, what up?” he smiles as comes towards me and hugs me. I smile and hug him back.

“Hi Spencer, nothing just looking for you.” I smile as his face lights up.

“Well of course you were because you are physically drawn to me.” He smirks that amazing smirk he uses to win all the girls over and slips in a wink.

“You wish Prince charming, come on, I don’t want to be late for our first lecture.” He sighs and walks beside me as we head to the lecture, we both study the same course and have the same dream of studying Accounting. We have so much in common, he is the apple to my pie. I have known Spencer since my first day of year eight in High School. When this guy tried to hit on me at my locker, Spencer told him that I was not interested and claimed that we were dating. Stopping the biggest player from our school hitting on me again. Ever since that day we became best friends, and never left each other’s side.

“Ah Miss Green, Mr Mclay how nice of you to join my lecture this morning” said Mr Anderson.

“Yeah sorry sir we got caught up” Spencer said as he tried to find a seat in the back. With my head down I followed in as everyone snicked at my crimson face.

“Well I don’t think that is a very good excuse Mr Mclay” said Mr Anderson with a disapproving and a disappointing look.

“It won’t happen again Mr Anderson, were sorry.” I said saving mine and Spencer’s asses. Spencer turns around and mouths ‘Goody toe shoes’ to me as we finally find a seat towards the back of the lecture hall.

“As I was saying before I was rudely interrupted…” he droned flashing as a glare and an eye roll. Too bad I didn’t care.  

I was slowly drifting between reality and day dreaming when someone tapped my shoulder, as I turn around I literally froze with wide eyes. I was greeted with the most heart melting smile. I thought that Spencer’s smile was amazing!! This boy was the definition of HOT!! He wore dark denim jeans and a blue shirt that showed off his toned muscles. And don’t get me started on his face. But I was taken away from day dream to soon.

 “Are you done checking me out sweetheart, or do you want to stare at me all day?” He smirked and moved closer so that we were at eye level.

“Umm…. Sorry did you want something?” I asked him.

“Oh yeah can you please email me some of your notes on this lecture I’m new here.” He asked with the most gorgeous smile.

“Ah yeah sure what’s your email?” I asked him getting out my laptop which should have done a while ago as everyone has been copying down notes that Mr Anderson was writing on the white board.

“Oh yeah it is jakeandrews@hotmail.com”

“Oh ok thanks Jake.” I smiled at him which made him smile.

“That’s ok and what’s your name sweetheart?”

“My name is- before I got to finish my sentence I was interrupted.

“Well Miss Green and Mr Andrews is your conversation more interesting than my lecture?” Mr Anderson spoke in a monotone, as he looked really pissed off.

“Maybe it is Sir.” Jake said in a sarcastic tone, when everyone, and I mean everyone was looking at him.

“Well please enlighten me Mr Andrews?” Mr Anderson asked as he put his white board marker down on his desk.

“Sure Sir I was just asking this kind young lady here to email me notes on your lectures, as this is my first day.” Jake finished as he smiled at Mr Anderson, he looked lost for words for a moment until he quickly recovered.

“Well Mr Andrews make sure you ask Payton in your own time, which is NOT in my lecture!” Mr Anderson exclaims quite loudly, which only makes me and Jake laugh more.

“I don’t think that he likes me very much.” Jake whispered to me.

“Oh don’t worry he hates everybody hahaha.” I laughed as Mr Anderson carried on with his lecture talking about how a formal report is due Monday or whatever.

“Peyton, stop being such a bad ass and turn around before you get yourself in trouble.” Said the familiar voice of Spencer.

“Spencer, calm your farm I’m just emailing Jake my notes.” As I turned around to look at him he had a look of anger across his face. And giving Jake a look saying ‘back off mate!’ I just wanted to laugh that Spencer was so protective of me, I never knew he would get in the way of me making new friends especially a guy.

“Ok students this is the end of my lecture I want your formal reports on my desk next Monday by 11am sharp.” Spoke Mr Anderson. Just when I was about to leave the room, someone whispered in my ear.

“See you tomorrow Miss Payton Green.” Jake spoke softly in my ear. Then quietly left, which made steam rise from Spencer’s ears signalling his anger. Oh boy this is going to be a long day at University.
