Walking Away

1

College is the year things get crazy. Boys get cuter and girls fall in love. My story is no ordinary love story. This is my life you just entered it. Now I will tell you the story.

The first day of college awaits me. I'm standing right outside the gates of FSU. I walked on to campus heart beating with excitment. I walk to the office to get the key to my dorm. I get the key and I'm so excited I run to the room like a little kid. I open the door and Im immediately filled with excitement. My roommate isn't here right now so I take a minute to really look at this room. It's really nice. The door opens and a pretty girl walks in. Following behind her is a guy. His face is so pure and beautiful.

"Hi you must be my new roommate. I'm Athena and you are?" The girl says.

"Oh I'm Ciara. It's nice to meet you." I say. Athena is a nice name. I don't know many Athena's.

"Nice to meet you too." Athena says. The boy standing next to her has a smirk on his face. "Oh this is Jaxson." Athena said. She must have noticed I was staring at him.

"Hey." He says. " Athena are you coming to the party tonight?" He asks. Athena nods her head. Jaxson walked out of the room. I begin to unpack my clothes and put them in the dresser.

"Are you going to the party tonight?" She asks me after a long period of silence.

"What party?" I ask unsure of what I'm getting myself into.

"Jax is throwing a party tonight at his frat house." She says. I'm not sure what to say and I don't want to dissapoint her.

"Ill go if you'll take me." I say before I can process the words in my brain.

"Ok! You have an hour to get ready." She says. I grab my towel and a nice dress from my dresser and leave to go shower. I get out of the shower and clean and dressed. I forgot my makeup. I ran back to the room where I find Athena in a blue wrapped dress. Its short and strapless. The color suits her nicely.

"Hey! You almost ready?" She asks me.

"I forgot my makeup."I say. She gestures me to sit on the bed. She takes my makeup bag and takes out a green eyeshadow to match my dress. I close my eyes and she begins to apply it to me. Then she takes out a liquid eyeliner and wings it perfectly. She then applies a light pink lipstick. She brushes my hair and puts it in a bun. She adds a pink bow to match my lips. She adds mascara to my lashes and puts the makeup away. "Perfect!" she says.

I look in the mirror and I thank her. I can see we will get along well. She takes me to her car and we drive over to Jaxson's frat house. The grass looks stained from alcohol and I begin to regret coming. We open the door. I walk in and see people dancing and getting drunk. This is the craziest thing I have ever seen.
