By the time I was done talking with my mom, there was still 40 minutes until my next class, so I started walking the rest of the way to the Dome.

When I got there the band had already started practice. I looked up at the bleachers to find a perfect place to sit, while looking throught the bleachers I spotted the boy named Nathan who had bumped into me on the sidewalk.

When he saw me looking he smiled and patted the seat next to him. I smiled back and started making my way towards him.

"Hey Kenzie!" Nathan smiled at me.

"Hey, Nathan. I thought you were late for band practice and I find you sitting in the bleachers." my remark caused a slight blush from him.

"Oh yeah, even though we sit on the bleachers we still have to be on time."

"Ha, Yeah I know what you mean."

I heard someone clear their throat behind us. "Oh right, Kenzie these are my, uh, house mates." He started at the left and worked his way towards us. They were in a row above us, so it was easy for me to shake their hands.

"This is Siva, Tom, Max, and Jay, guys this is Kenzie."

They all said hello.

"You're all British?"

"Um, no. All of us except Siva is British." I looked at Siva after Nathan answered my question.

"Irish!" Siva stated while pointing to himself. I couldn't help but smile.

"Well, it's nice meeting you all, if I may ask, what brings you too this small college town?"

Tthey all looked at each other before the boy named Jay answered. "Well, we wanted to know what college was like in America, but we didn't want to go to a big college. This was a top three choice, so we came here. Even though Tom here didn't want too." He said the last part while pointing at the boy with the whit T-shirt, a simple grey zip-up hoodie, and sweats. With converse, in almost the exact same color as the ones I was wearing.

When Jay was finished talking Tom started "Well, I don't think many people want to be in a really small town, where everyone knows each other and you know no one. And we're in Oklahoma of all places."

Nathan looked back at me "Don't mind Tom, he has tantrums quite a bit."

I looked back Tom, "Well, you know me now, I could introduce you to some people if you want."

Max spoke up this time, "That would help us out a lot. Is there any good resturants around here?"

"Well, considering this is a college town, there's mostly just pizza places. There's a Chili's." I couldn't help but laugh, "Okay, I see where Tom is coming from."

"See she agrees with me." Tom said smiling, like he had won an arguement.

"Are there any vegatarian resturants in town?" Jay finally spoke up again.

"Um, I don't know, there might be one on main street, there's lots of little resturants there." He nodded "Okay, I'll check them out tomorrow."

"So is there anything fun to do around here?" Siva asked leaning forward.

"Well, here at the college cafe they have an open mic night every week, there's also a laser tag arena, but other than that there's a town about an hour away that has a mall and a civic center for concerts. There's usually a concert every weeekend. Other than those places it's pretty boring." They all laughed and I couldn't help but laugh too.

"So, what are you guys majoring in?"

"Music." They all stated together, I had to smile.

"All of you?"
