It had been a few days since the kiss.

I had to admit I was expecting the typical silent treatment. You know where everything is awkward and the guy is ashamed of being around the girl.

Thankfully it wasn't like that. I mean we definitely weren't all buddy buddy, but we didn't avoid each other.

After the kiss I made him promise that nothing would change. We would just continue working together like always.

It was one of those, what happens in the forest stays in the forest situations. And it was working.

Yesterday we revived our test results. My baiting test was partially inconclusive because of the Derek thing but over all I did well.

Now I've always been a humble person so when I say 'well' it actually means I was at the top of my class. Yes that's right, little old me beat out the other 9 people that came here with me.

My weapons scores were almost perfect. My fighting was less exceptional but it still beat everyone else. As for baiting I was only up against 2 other people. I was attached and still did the best.

I felt bad though, I had an edge on the competition that no one knew about. I couldn't tell anyone about who or what I was.

People would ask me how I do so well and I would have to lie. Which is one of my biggest pet peeves.

I've just never liked it. It makes me feel sick and vile.

Since I've been here I've turned into the person I always wanted to be.

In school I was the quite smart one because that's what people expected of me. But here, no one knew me. I could act however I wanted. And you know what I chose? I chose to be the bad ass.

No I'm not the annoyingly fake and bitchy bad ass. I'm the don't get in my way unless you want to die bad ass. And if I do say so myself it feels pretty damn good.

I stand up for myself like I never would've before. And you know what? It feels pretty damn good.

I heard a soft knock on my door.

"Come in"

Carly and Marisa stepped into my doorway holding a few dress bags.

"We picked up your dress for tonight. You can thank your awesomest best friends later" Marisa said in a bubbly voice.

"Well I can tell someone is excited for tonight" I stated rolling my eyes.

Carly stifled a laugh behind her.

"Oh come on" Marisa started to annoyingly poke me "you know it's gonna be fun. We get our jobs and then we get to par-tay!"

I smacked her hands away from me and gave her a playful glare.

"Fine but you better not get so drunk that I'm the one who has to carry you home"

She held out her hand infront of me.

"Deal"

"Well now that we have that out of the way, we should get ready," Carly said finally joining the conversation.

We all piled into my bathroom to get ready.

I applied a light smokey eye, or however light you can do a smokey eye. Carly helped me wing out my eye liner making a dramatic effect. I settled on a dark red lip that complimented my skin tone very well.
