Adriana's pov
I look infornt of me and i am faced with an enormous building probably 60 feet tall or even taller. i walk forward gawking at the sight while my best friend Sam stroll's behind me with my bags in one hand and his in the other. "its absolutely amazing isn't it Sam" i say as my brunette hair is whipped around in the harsh wind. its September its suppose to be cold.
"yea i guess" he sighs combing his wavy dark brown hair back with his fingers. Sam is a whole head taller than me around 6'0 and me , well im only 5'4 so im pretty short compared to him which is a big disadvantage to me because back in the care home he would always be able to reach the cookies on top of the fridge and he wouldn't even give me one.
We became friends as we were neighbors for a long time. back in those days the Sam that is now here was very different back then. he would be so kind and polite and would never hurt a fly. he was extremely clever (which in actual fact he still is) and he was what some one would say as the most happiest child around, but that sad day came when our house caught fire and somehow the fire had transferred into Sams house. it was about 4 am when this had happened .
Flashback
* * *
I opened my eyes to someone frantically shaking me. my gaze set upon my next door neighbor Sam. he looked worried as he grabbed my arm and pulled me up so i was standing . he was coughing and not long after i started coughing.i look behind him and i see a flame of red , my heart now scared for its life .
"come on" Sam yelled as he pushed my window over and over but it would not open , this was because my mum had locked it because of safety reasons. i quickly ran to my bedroom door and shut it grabbing one of my dresses and shoving it under the door so that no more smoke could come in. i was finding it hard to breath i kept coughing . "help me out addy" Sam said which brought my attention to him as i ran to him and tried opening the window but we couldn't. we were only 15 we did not have enough strength. the smoke started getting in again.
"are we going to die Sam" i cried. my heart was going into a frenzy. was we going to die. how did this fire start in the first place i pushed harder and harder while Sam did the same . i feel my knees going weak maybe because of the lack of oxygen or maybe because i was so scared i could barely stand up.
i coughed again as i pushed harder and harder. Sam looked at the window and told me to stand back. i did. and he kicked the window a few times while i was frantically grabbing all the clothes i could and i was shoving it all by the door. there was hardly any oxygen in here need to find a way i looked up and there was a fan that was attached to the outside i quickly ran to it nearly tripping over some dresses. i pulled the string and just as i thought the smoke was getting sucked outside. i looked over at Sam just as he manages to break the window causing a few glass pieces to go into his leg. he did not show any sign of him getting hurt. he was good at that. good at being brave.
he used my book to break the rest of the glass and he made a big enough hole for us both to jump out. just as i walk towards the window i realize that i am not wearing any shoes. Sam realizes too as he picked me up and we both jump out of the window

"hello" Sam says waving his hand in front of my face "you okay"
"yea im fine" i chirp shrugging off all the negative feelings that had happened years ago "come on lets go" i say carrying on my walk as we reach the front desk. "hello may i have the rooms of Adriana Sims and Sam Parker" i say to the old lady who was sitting behind the desk with a pen in her mouth.
"of course my dear"she then starts typing something in the computer and after 1 minute she starts speaking again. "you two are in building A and your dorm rooms are K5 and J3"
she then hands us our keys and a map each before looking back down at her computer showing this a sign that she wants us to go.
"why do you think that building A and B are so far away" i say checking the map. they are far not the normal space for two dormitory buildings to be apart.
"i dunno you should have asked the lady when you were there"
i purse my lips "why are you being so quite today, i mean your like this normally but your going worse now"
he stops and looks at me "addy you know the reason for that, its pointless asking"
"its not" i whine "this is our first day in a new start i mean look no more sharking fridges with another 12 people we now get to have our own food"
he looks at me and rolls his eyes. i know he wants to smile but he never does. not anymore
"come on we moved out the care home you got to be happy about that" i say smiling. i mean yea the care home was good but i did not appreciate sharing rooms with someone who had a collection of insects. he would always threaten me with them when i wouldn't clean the room. im so happy to be away from that.
