"I promise mom." I tell my mother as she is giving me this full report on what to expect on in college. You know the 'big years'.

"Are you even listening to me Layla?". She questioned her has on her hips looking quite unhappy with me.

I roll myeyes and look at her, "Of course I am mother." I really just can't wait until she leaves me to my dorm letting me make it my own. I can't wait until my roommate comes here.

"Well I will be leaving now. Oh, honey I am going to miss you so much." She says bringing her hands up to her cheeks. "We will only be a few hours away but still, I am going to miss my little girl! I will come here and be with you as soon as you ask. I just love the city. Do you see that building right there?" She asks pointing her long finger out of the open window.

"Yes mom it was where you used to live wasn't it?"

"Yes it was! You are going to have so much fun!" She said for the second time today. "Well I must be off now I have a long drive to get back home."

I move from the position I was just in and get up to hug her. "Bye mom." I whisper over her shoulder still squeezing her.

"Bye sweetie." We release each other and she moves out the door.

I open up my computer and go onto Netflix. I start to watch the Breakfast Club for about forty five minutes and have to stop it when a tall beautiful brunette walks through the door.

"Hey." She greets me with a handshake.

I ignore her offer and pull her into a hug, "Sorry I'm a hugger. My name is Layla." I tell her.

"My name is Colleen." She replies back to me.

"Well I am a bit hungry, I think I'm going to go down to Starbucks. Do you want to come with?" I ask her trying to be as friendly as I possibly can.

"Sure I'll come. But will you come with me to a party please?"

"Sure why not."

As we get to Starbucks I order a carmel coffee and so does Colleen. We walk back to our dorm with these in our hands.

"So who's party is this tonight?" I ask curiously.

"My cousin's he's a year above us though. His name is Brent Larkings."

I nod my head and ask her what time it is at.

"It is at sevan o'clock. So we have to get ready when we get back." I nod my head in agreement.

When we get home I through my coffee out since it was finished. Then start to curl my straight hair. I burn myself in the process but we are all good. Then I apply light makeup to the face and add dark red lipstick. I get my black dress that goes down to mid thigh. Then I get my favorite pair of heels and put them are. They are dark red heels that match my lips.

Colleen comes out and I see her rocking her outfit. She is wearing a similar dress to mine but hers is moroon rather than my black dress. She did big eye make-up that made her crystal blue eyes pop out. Then she had on nude lipstick with matching nude heels. She looked hot I mean like woah hot.

Instead of driving to the party we get a cab because driving in New York City sucks and we wil probally just crash at the party. We walk into this frat house and I can feel the music blasting so loud I didn't catch what Colleen was trying to say.

I'm going to go get a drink."I scream over the speakers. I see her nod and I get up to walk away.

While i was getting my drink I felt a body behind me. I turn around and see this boy looking around 19 standing behind me looking over my sholder. "May I help you?" I ask.

He responds with a grab to my wrist and brings me to the dance floor. I begin to protest but find myself on the floor covering my hands over my face.

"Don't you ever touch her again, you hear."
