In the middle of the night I woke up, feeling dead out of blood with ice-cold limbs. Alarmed every part of my body stood rigid in it's place, minutes felt like hours as I just stared profrating the wall infront of me. I wanna scream scream scream; letting aggravation sleep down into me else into the thick air enveloping me. Before the frightful feeling of my subconscious creepily whispering in my ear, Ashley sat beside me rubbing her eyes with back of hands getting out of her sleepy state. Had I gone made her waking up in this pitch dark didn't even startled me.

"Are you okay?" She sighed wrapping an arm around me still on her back.

"Yea' nothing serious, just woke up from my sleep" I assured her; not in any way I'm going to tell her I had a nightmare making her conclude I've some sort of mental illness. She nodded with eyes still closed and huddled me towards her, my body instantly relaxing against the cool sheets of bed.

"Everthing will be alright" With her four words I'm deep in slumber before I know.

Twenty four hectic days felt like twenty four years, getting along with office and college work was one hell of task! My graphic class project is still pending; phew why I'm getting feels like it would be done before the day of my funeral.
Aha, not to mention that I've not seen my boss and his assistant which is my boss too but way way more smaller in rank than him, till this day. Finally week is over. I'm zoning out standing in the middle of mess, hustle and bustle carrying out in all zeal.

"Cupcake! If you're done with your classes come sit with us and have a meal" Emma shouted sitting a distance away from me, disconcerting my focus and everything seems like it came back to reality, I'm stressed. She's sitting their with her friends which includes Jodi, being very feminine gesticulating  nails manicured with a red color on.
Sipping on her celery juice she laughed with her look alikes not physically but mentally sure they do.

I waved Emma in negligence gesturing her I'm not coming to sit, beacuse I don't want my head to get roasted with gossips about new fashion trends, who's friends with benefits with whom and much more them snubbing me. Before I could turn back on my heels, somebody slipped their arm in mine dragging me towards the table they were all at.

"Where were you. thought you were escaping too? Ashley's voice echoed pushing me to the seat, handling a tray loaded with food to Emma. My words didn't even made out of my mouth to protest when a tall figure came towering over Emma, she glinted whacking his arm lightly.

"Care to make some space for innocent man" Harry grinned hauling Ashley and sitting in her seat getting a scowl instead and blow at his chest.

"Anobody could enjoy the comfort of my lap-" He raised his eyebrows asking everyone, and Jodi is always awaiting for his pervert remarks.

"But the point here's nobody wants that comfort" Ashley shook her head sitting on his lap, but leaning more towards his knees making it seem less akward. I'm silent all the way because my shoulder's stiff like stone. But all of them are so energetic right now, Emma munching her food speedily while Harry's hand continuously removing Ashley's hair band making her pique and Jodi getting burned espying, she's even jealous of Ash being Harry's best-friend.

"Um..guys who's going to the party tonight, at frat house?" Lillieth called out diverting everyone's attention.

"Me!" I spoke raising my hand being childish while in all my fantasies I don't know there's a party being held. Not to forget in the same frat house I cried gallons of tears, where I felt so low that I've never felt in my entire life. The attention that was on lillieth, was one me now.
