Sleeping on my own was something I was used to, but somehow last night I didn't get much sleep, I missed the girls being cuddled up next to me, even though it was a thousand degrees.

I have to get used to sleeping with someone from now on.

I laid there in the middle of a hundred pillows as I stared at the ceiling just thinking.

I used to love playing sports, it was one of my favorite things to do in the summer, my favorite was probably golf, it was a time for my father and I to bond. Of course it was fun but as I got older my father stopped treating me like his child and instead treated me like a random young women. Over time our father/daughter bond just faded away, until there was nothing left.

There was never a mother and daughter bond to begin with, It was more like a we-live-together-and-I-do-as-she-says bond. She has always made my decisions. She even chose my friends, the only reason I'm friends with Alice and Potty mouth Cristy is because my parents and their parents went to high school together.

I don't understand why they had me if they weren't even going to give me the affection I needed or the special care, more than half of the time I spend my days with a nanny while they worked their butts off. For what? More money? We already have tons of money just sitting and waiting to be put to use.

I was showered in toys, I got a big or fancy toy every time they missed a birthday, that added up and eventually they wouldn't even fit in my play room. I got a doll every time they had to leave for a work emergency, I had a cupboard full of dolls and teddy bears, it all added up until they started falling off the shelves. I never really liked dolls but of course they wouldn't know since they hardly paid attention to me.

"Good morning bails" Jc smiled as he walked into my room.

"Bails? Seriously?" I chuckled.

"Sure why not?"

I shrugged my shoulders, "sounds kind of funny"

"Come on downstairs, join us for breakfast"

"I'm not hungry but I'll join you" I said as I got out of bed and followed him downstairs.

"Good morning Bails" they all said at the same time.

"Not you guys too" I chuckled as I covered my face.

"We came up with it while you were taking your nap yesterday" Alice smiled.

"Well it's weird" I chuckled as I sat besides Cristy.

"We should play a drinking game!" Kian shouted out of no where.

"Dumbass you do realize it's barley the fucking morning" Jc said as he smacked him on the back of the head.

"I meant later on in the day, stupid!" Kian picked his nose and then rubbed his finger on Jc.

"I haven't drank in long time" Cristy said.

I sighed and just listened in confusion as they started naming different types of alcohols and I nodded my head to try and look like I knew what they were talking about.

Jc leaned over and whispered, "you don't know a single fuck of what we're talking about, do you?"

"Not a single thing" I whisper back.

"Bailey, what's your your favorite type of beer, vodka, whatever" Kian called out.

"Me?" Of course me! What other Bailey? "I-I.. um.. i-I don't drink" I said as i lowered my head.

"Yup. She's never even tasted beer" Cristy said as if it were a sin.

"I'm not even 21 yet" I said as I got goosebumps all over my arms.

"So?"

"Okay girls okay, I mean do you want to taste it?" Kian asked.

"Yeah right, like my mother left a few beers and vodka in the cabinets" I giggled. If they knew my mother and how strict she is they'll be laughing along with me.

"Not your mom, but us. We're not big alcohol fans but it makes for a great video"

"Maybe later" I said knowing very well I was lying.

They continued on with their conversations as I just played around with my fingers. It's times like these where I wish my phone had service. What if something goes wrong and there's no way to contact the police, or fire fighters? We could die, stranded out here.

What if the house somehow sets on fire? Most likely by Kian, how would we get help? What if a serial killer stumbles upon our cabin and starts having a killing spree? What if the power goes out and we all die from all the heat?

The conversation began to heat up as they started talking about exes and crazy girlfriends. A knock almost made us jump from our seats. We all stared at each other a bit frightened. Like I said before we were miles away from the closest town.

"Maybe it's the guy that's suppose to deliver our food" Alice whispered as we all got down on the ground.

"It's not even been two weeks yet" I whispered, "I'm going to check the window"

I walked over to the living room and looked out the window carefully so they wouldn't see me and my heart dropped to the floor as my body crawled with goosebumps. I quickly ran back to the kitchen as he knocked again a bit louder this time.

"You two need to hide in your room and don't come out at all, go" I said as I pushed them towards the stair case.

"Why? Who is it?!" Kian questioned.

"Just go" I said as I kept pushing them.

"Bailey who is it?!" Jc asked as he stopped me by grabbing both of my wrists.

"It's Tyler.. my fiancé"
