"What's all that noise?" I ask Alana after hearing constant banging and angry shouts from downstairs.
"Probably the boys moving in." She answers looking at the booklet for the college.
"Why are you reading that?" I ask her.
"I need to get to know the campus."
"The only places you need to know Alana are: the apartment for sleep, the library also for sleep, your classroom for studying and the bar for when you need to get drunk." I tell her. She rolls her eyes and relaxes into her chair.
"We might need the nurses office once in a while."
"Yeah, maybe that."
"It's not a 'maybe that' Zoe, it's a definite. What if one of us suddenly becomes ill and we don't know what's wrong. Then we'll need the nurse."
"Or we could go to our best friends downstairs." I say.
"Whatever Zoe." She says rolling her eyes and standing up.
"Where are you going?"
"To ask if they want help."
"They didn't help us."
"Because all of our stuff was here Zoe!" Alana shouts walking out of the apartment and slamming the door shut. I sigh and look at the TV, dad wanted to check out the apartment before us so he brought everything down and set it up while we said goodbye to a few friends a few days before we arrived this morning.
"Knock knock." Someone says knocking on the door, I roll my eyes again and open the door to see Luke.
"Hi." He says.
"Can I help you?"
"Alana said that I can use your toilet."
"What's wrong with your toilet?"
"We haven't unpacked the toilet paper yet."
"Air dry." I say going to shut the door. He slams his hand on the door so I pull it open.
"What do you want?!"
"To use the toilet!" He shouts.
"Fine!" I shout stepping aside and letting him in. He runs to the toilet and I wait by the closed front door.
"Thanks." He says walking out minutes later.
"Did you wash your hands?"
"Of course I did! I'm not an animal."
"Okay." I say opening the door for him with a fake smile.
"You need to relax."
"Yeah well when I do, I'll let you know." I smile slamming the door shut on his face.
"Bitch." I hear him mumble. I roll my eyes and sit back on the couch flipping through the channels.

"Creative Writing is that way." Alana says as she walks forward to fix my t-shirt and bag.
"I'm not a child Alana, stop it." I snap smacking her hands away.
"Sorry okay! I'm just worried about you, you haven't been yourself since we finished High School."
"I'm fine."
"So you keep saying."
"Because it's true. Now go otherwise you'll be late." I say turning around to walk towards the room that not many people were walking into.
"I love you sis!" She shouts.
"I love you too!" I shout back before walking into the creative writing room.
One curly haired blonde sat in the room. She was flicking through her creative writing piece that was set during taster days.
"Hi." I say, she looks up and smiles brightly.
"Hi! I'm Aurora."
"Nice name, I'm Zoe." I say sitting down next to her.
"There aren't many people in this class."
"There's not?"
"No, there's us two and 3 boys." She says. "Creative writing isn't a popular subject."
"It's an easy subject."
"If you know how to write." She tells me.
"Yeah, I suppose." I smile.
"Is this creative writing?" Someone asks. I turn around and sigh.
"Hi neighbour!" Calum shouts running down the stairs and sitting next to me.
"Hi Calum."
"Hi Zoe, who's your friend?"
"This is Aurora."
"Nice name! Calum." He says shaking her hand.
"Hi." She smiles.
"So where about do you live?" Calum asks striking conversation.
"Oh, I just got here and I haven't got anywhere. I was just going to sleep in a hotel I saw nearby until I could find a place."
"You didn't find somewhere before you came?" I ask.
"I wasn't sure whether I was coming really." She laughs awkwardly.
"I like you, come live with me." I say.
"What?"
"My apartment fits 4, there's just me and my sister so we have two spare rooms." I say.
"You're going to give your spare room out to a stranger?" She asks.
"Are you a murderer?"
"No."
"Then you can have my spare room." I say sending a text to Alana to let her know.
"Wow! Thank you!" She says hugging me. Calum coos and I glare at him.
"Hi class!" The teacher shouts running down the stairs and towards the front.
"Preppy." Calum mumbles, I hold back a laugh and look as the other two boys run in and sit in the back.
"Everyone come closer!" The teacher shouts, "My names Mr Holton, I'm your teacher."
"No shit." Calum mumbles as we walk closer to the front, I laugh and look at him shaking my head.
"Homework first, work later." He says collecting in all the papers with our creative writing pieces on. Mine was by far the longest at 3 pages back to back.
"I'm going to have fun reading this." He laughs before collecting in Aurora's. I smile and look down at my table, Calum laughing beside me.
"Shut up you dick." I whisper. He smiles before concentrating back on Mr Holton.
