"Ms Gold,  we can not simply allow someone to move into your dorm just like that." The receptionist beamed.

"Look here Ms Beatrice. I don't want to create a scene, so if you can kindly get this done it will be perfect. I really don't want to call my dad." As soon as I mentioned my dad, Beatrice's furiously typed on the keyboard. 

"It's done," she mumbled as I beamed with excitement.

"Thanks." Turning away in excitement, I headed towards Lotus giving her a thumbs up.

"I told you I could do it..." Lotus glanced behind me in a worried glance and soon my smile turned into a frown as I looked back to see Sebastian King staring right at me. His arms crossed and eyes cold and calculated, Sebastian held no emotion whatsoever as he continued staring.

"Let's go." rolling my eyes I grabbed Lotus' arm pulling her back to our dorm. 

"Ms.Gold" Sebastian now pushed himself off the wall as he stood a few feet away from me and Lotus. My eyes furrowed in confusion as Lotus who avoided Sebastian's gaze as if it was poison, her hands suddenly starting to shake. I looked up at Sebastian as he stared at me with his head tilted a bit as if waiting for me to say something.

"What," I spoke confidently my expression suddenly turning sour, knowing that this guy was no angel. Sebastian's eye's gleamed mischievously a small almost unnoticed tilt of his mouth upwards. My patience soon ran out and I turned my back walking away from him, Lotus following behind.

" Let this be a warning Ms.Gold. I don't want you insulting my friends like that ever again." I suddenly came to a halt scoffing at his words. 

" You mean insulting your reputation." and just like that, I continued walking back to my dorm.

" Lotus. You gonna tell me what was going on there..." Lotus suddenly froze, her gaze moving to me as they widened.

"I...um what..."

"With Sebastian." I raised my eyebrows as I put my book back on the coffee table, my attention fully on Lotus as she hopelessly tried to make up a lie.

" Has he hurt you before." I found myself suddenly frustrated.

"Not me." Lotus bearly found herself mumble.

"Who..."

"Yo guys. Whats going on?" My gaze snapped to Jack, who stood by the door his hands in his denim jacket pockets. He smiled like a kid at a candy shop, suddenly jumping onto the couch nearly pushing me off in the process.

"We could have been naked, you a**hole. Haven't you heard about knocking and how did you get in anyways." I glared at him causing his smile to widen more. 

" You left the door open and you guys walk around naked...." Jack stared at a blushing Lotus, whistling. 

"You pervert." shoving him off the couch hard enough for him to fall flat on the ground.

" You know you're a violent woman." Jack grabbed his stomach hissing, causing my eyes to widen.

"Shit I didn't mean to hurt you..."

"I'm fine. I got this by playing football." I noticed Lotus stiffen, jumping off the sofa and running to Jack's side. They both whispered among themselves as if they were completely oblivious to the fact that I was watching them. Lotus stared at Jack worriedly her hands touching his cheek. Feeling awkward, I got up slowly walking to my bedroom, leaving the two to converse silently. 

"He did it again didn't he," Lotus mumbled to Jack unaware of the fact that I could hear her. From hearing that I knew I had a pretty good idea about what they were talking about. Lotus wasn't the only victim of bullying in Arlington.
