Hi guys! Most of this chapter is in flashbacks! Anything in italics is part of the flashback! Thanks.

Also, dedication to my friend Sheila, who read it through before I posted it!

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Girls were chatting and sitting around the living room. Cheerleading must be over early, because I didn't expect this many people to be home. The loud noises only added to my forming migraine and upset stomach. I made my way up the stairs to my room and unlocked the door. Everything was just like I left it this morning. It looked almost the same as it did when I first moved in last Fall.

"Holly, come on. We don't want to be late!"

Up and down the block, girls were running up to doors and talking to frat boys in the streets. I ran with my friend up the front walkway to the large wooden doors of the newly painted Delta Nu sorority house. My chest was pounding inside my chest at how nervous I was right now. I was actually pretty upset, but I tried to stay positive beside my friend. I only had one shot to make this work. I had to get in, no matter what.

The doors opened wide to the sight of five or six girls dressed in tight neon crop tops and high waisted denim shorts. They had perfect bodies and perfect personalities. I wanted to be just like them.

"Hey girls! Welcome to Delta Nu! Come inside!" One of them piped in. 

I looked over to my best friend, Caroline, and smiled. We walked through the doors as they shut behind us.

A knock on my door woke me up. 

"Come in," I called out weakly, rubbing the sleep from my eyes and stretching my arms above my head.

Serena walked in and sat on the edge of my bed, smiling at me and patting my legs. She really was like a mother to me here. 

"Have a nice little nap?"

"Yeah," I nearly whispered, lost in my own thoughts.

I didn't feel like talking about my headache or the memories that had been pestering me since Harry and I's conversation earlier today. I was the only one who knew what had happened.

"We were going to post the little's information downstairs. Don't you want to come see? If not, I know you're tired and I can just tell you-"

I shook my head and threw my blanket off. 

"No, I want to go down and see it too."

Serena wrapped her arm around my shoulder and gave me tight squeeze as we walked out of my room.

"That's my girl."

Caroline and I showed up to the frat party across the street. The place was booming with loud music and people ran in and out of the front doors with red solo cups filled to the brim with vodka or scotch.

I felt uncomfortable in my outfit right now. The skirt was too short, and somehow Caroline convinced me to wear a thong and a push-up bra. I felt completely exposed, but I also seemed to be the only one who cared. Caroline for sure didn't. She pranced around in tight jeans and a crop top, though she probably shouldn't be wearing one. I wouldn't want to at a sketchy party like this anyways.

Inside, she went straight for the alcohol and brought me a cup filled with beer, which I didn't want. To please her and the people watching around me, I took a sip and smiled.

She ran off to go talk to some of the frat boys, leaving me alone. I needed to find a way to get rid of this drink... I turned and nearly ran into of the guys. His brown hair was layered in his face and his blue eyes stuck out like stars at night. He was fucking hot. He bit down on his lower lip as he looked down at me.
