Chapter 1

My body was shaking violently from being cold, I was slouched against a tree with my head inbetween my knees. I couldnt give up now, I had to keep moving.

I dragged myself up with pains shooting up my right leg, I knew for a fact it was broken. All I could hear was my own teeth chittering and screams from far back in the woods,

they were becoming more hysteric, there was surely about four girls to cause that much noise. I tried to run to the cabin in front of me, I had known it was here somewhere in the northside of the woods. 

I started to hop towards it, I had about 20 feet left to go until I felt a crashing weight hit my body, my head hit a rock and I started to become dizzy. 

With the last energy I had I looked up to see what hit me only to find a face inches away from mine. His breath being the only visible thing I could see, it came out in puffs of cloud, his face shadowed by the dark.

He stepped back and the moonlight illuminated his features, he had slick jet black hair gelled back, his mouth was in a sly grin and he held a heavy object in his hand, I tried to squint my eyes to see what it was before he raised it-

"HANNAH THIS IS YOUR LAST CHANCE"

My body jerked awake as if I had fell, I clutched the side of my bed and tried to calm down, my breaths came out ragged and quick and my heart was going to burst. 

"IF YOUR NOT AWA- WOW" Brooke came storming through my door, hear jaw dropped when her eyes caught mine and saw my state.

"Hannah whats wrong?! Do you need an ambulance?!"

My hand was still holding on to the side of the bed whilst the other was on my chest. The bedsheets were wet with sweat, I hope.

I sat up and shook my head "I had a bad dream again" I looked up and Brooke was sitting at the bottom of my bed.

She looked at the sheets then looked back at me with a weary expression. 

"Sweat" I said trying to reassure her that her 18 year old roomate doesnt pee the bed. Her mouth formed into a line before she let out a laugh. 

"I was seriously doubting you there, what happened this time?" Her almond eyes had sympathy in them, that was very rare.

"It was the usual, I was being chased in the woods then a man tackeled me and hit me with a rock over the head, I really dont know how to get rid of these dreams?"

"Are you eating cheese before bed?"

"Oh shut up Im being serious!" I snapped.

Her eyes went wide, she stood up and walked infront of me. "You need to calm down, just because you are having these freaky dreams it doesnt give you an excuse to be snappy with me!" she spoke calmly but I could tell she was annoyed. I nodded my head and stared at the floor.

"Anywayyy, we need to go food shopping, throw something on, il be outside." she said whilst walking out the door.

I waited till I could hear the front door shut then grunted, it was always her eating all the food but still managed to have the figuire of a stick insect.

I envied her on that, I was never the skinniest but nevertheless Iv never been fat. I quite like the way I am but I dont have the need to flaunt myself to everyone with skimpy unlike most of the girls in my college. I never stood out in that way, you would usually catch me wearing band shirts. jeans and vans; a massive contrast to the sluts in the area.

I walked over to my wardrobe and pulled out black skinnies and a ramones t-shirt, I quickly jumped in a shower.

I washed my hair and brushed my teeth when I was done.

Stepping out of the shower I slipped on the wet tiles and landed on my arse. I couldnt pull myself up because I was laughing that hard at myself. The bathroom door was ratteling and and angry Brooke was waiting for me when I opened the door. 

"Hurry up! what the fuck was that noise?!" she was pacing up and down the hall whilst checking her watch.

"Woah calm down, I slid and landed on my arse coming out the shower" she tried to hide her laugh but her dimples gave it away. I waltzed past her and went in my room to get ready.

Walmart was packed, I had to drive round the carpack three times before I could find a parking space. I heard occasional tuts and grunts from Brooke who was sitting in the passenger seat with her cigerette hanging out the window, I eventually found a space and parked. We walked into the store, I went to find a basket and Brooke headed straight towards the alcohol section, I guess someone got their paycheck in. I followed behind her, bumping into almost everyone in my path. When I caught up with her she already had her arms full with bottles of vodkas, spiced rum and whiskey. 

" Wow, who are they for?" There was atleast 11 bottles she was putting in the baskets, she got a spare one so it wasnt too heavy.

" Iv invited people round remember?" She said as if it was obvious.

"I dont remember this? what 'people' " my head tilted to the side.

"friends and friends of friends" She beamed

"We arent here for food then no?" I was quite disapointed, I love having a fridge full of food.

"Nope" she said popping the P.
