Dear Diary...

Chapter 2

   Kaitlin James...I knew that last name sounded familiar. She gives me and Lux a dirty look before putting her helmet on her long sandy blonde hair.
   "Well yeah call me sometime for that coffee. My sister might cut my brake line before if I don't get her to campus before her party." He rolls his eyes "But I'll be there tonight...you should swing by. And you can bring your friend too" I blush and smile.
   "Well duh I literally go everywhere with her" Lux states. I look back and glare at her while she puts her hands up in defense and proceeds to light her bowl.
   "Yeah we'll try what's the address?" Landon writes down the address and gets on his bike to ride off. Not before giving me a wink with those icy blue eyes.
Lux rolls her eyes as I get into the truck. "What?" I ask
  "Its been 2 hours and you already got a guys number and a date?!" She says as she starts the truck and hops on the freeway headed toward campus.
   "Hey a girl has needs! And hes hot. The only downside is his sister" I say looking out the window running my fingers along the edges of my diary.
   "Yeah. If I knew that bitch was going to UCLA I would have went to SDSU." she says.
   We stare at each other for a single moment than burst into laughter. "No, SDSU isn't far enough away from home" I say as I laugh and start to write.

~Dear diary,
    Kaitlin James followed us to our new start. You see, Kaitlin use to be my best friend before I was close with Lux. I've known her since seventh grade. Eventually she turned into a real bitch when we got to high school. She started bullying me and so I became closer with Lux.
   Lux brings out the bad-ass in me. One day after swim, Kaitlin walked by us getting out of the pool and called me a whore. I told her to turn around and say it to my face. She charged at me and I threw mine and Lux's phones into a bush. I beat the shit out of her and got suspended for two weeks...and had to buy Lux a new phone.
All I know is a week later when I went back to school she told everyone I was in the hospital because she won the fight and all she got was a broken nose, some lost hair extensions, and a black eye. How did people believe that when all I had was a small scratch above my eyebrow? Apparently Kaitlin has a brother I never knew about and DAMN hes fine as fuck! We use to be best friends and she never once mentioned she had a brother. In fact she said she was an only child...I wonder why. Well, he invited me to a party tonight and I'm really excited to see him....god I sound like such a nerd! I just met him!! Why am I so excited to see a stranger? whatever.
Xoxo, Ash

   We pull up to UCLA and park in the unloading area and start grabbing our stuff from the bed of the truck. "ASH WE FUCKING MADE IT BITCH!!!! I cant wait to see our dorm!!!" Lux screams in my ear, with a slight lisp from her swollen tongue.
   "I need a Slurpee and to smoke." I say trying not to wince at the pain in my mouth when I talk.
   "Bet!" she says with a little giggle as we carry our stuff up to dorm 219...our new home for the next four years...
   This dorm is more like an apartment. When you first walk in you are in the living room. To the left is our all white and black kitchen with a beautiful island/kitchen table. If you continue going straight past the kitchen is the hallway. To the left in the hallway is a bathroom, directly across the bathroom is a master bedroom already filled with a full size bed, desk, and dresser with a walk in closet and its own bathroom. And all the way at the end of the hall is the other bedroom that Lux has already claimed as her own.
   This dorm is beautiful, and if it wasn't for the college fund my grandma made for me, and the glowing recommendation my high school English teachers left for me, there would be no way we could ever afford to live here.
   I start hanging lights around my room with Lux's help. I don't know what I would do without her sometimes. I am 4"11 and she is 5"6 with stunningly beautiful long legs.
"So Landon is Kaitlin's brother..."
   I roll my eyes. "Yeah I know. I just hope hes nothing like her. She has made my life hell for the last four years Lux." I say sitting on the bed holding my head in my hands.
   "I don't know Ash. I think its a bad sign and I don't have a good feeling about this." She says finishing hanging up my lights and now sitting next to me on the bed.
   "But I don't even know him yet. Like what if he is a really good guy?" I look at her already trying to find ways to defend him.
   "Ash listen. He might be a good guy and he might be the worst. He offered to fix your phone and that's great but we don't know him. And WHY have we never seen him before? You've know Kaitlin for how long? And never knew she had a brother. It's weird and I'm just following my gut here but you do what you have to. If you want to go on a date and get a little sex on then do it. But I'm just telling you how I'm seeing it babes." She pulls me in trying to ease my thoughts.
   My mind just keeps asking the same thing. Why have I never seen him before?
