I'm Not An Angel

06

"So this is my side. You can do whatever you want to your side. I don't care. But I would make it like, non breakable, because we hang out in this dorm the most. It's definitely the largest out of everyone's." Olivia says as we walk back into our room.

"I don't have a ton of stuff. I just brought what he put on the packing list and a couple extras."

"You'll get more things. With birthdays and christmas and you'll buy things too."

"Yeah I wondered how that money thing worked here."

"It's not that complicated, but it takes a minute to get used to it I guess. You get an allowance every month. The amount depends on what you do during that month. Good grades, better allowance. Doing well during training, better allowance. So basically if you do good things you get money, if you do bad things you don't."

"Oh yeah, that makes sense."

"Cool, anymore questions?"

"Yall were talking about writing on your door where you were, how does that work?"

"Our doors are magnetic, so every person has a magnet on their door and the locations of different things around campus are written on the door. So like activities center, in dorm, cafeteria, school, training and stuff like that. Did you not see it when we walked in?"

"I guess I wasn't paying attention." We hear a knock on the door. Both our heads turn towards the door, and Olivia gets up to go answer it. There are some muffled whispers so I just continue to put things away. As I go to hang up a couple things in the closet, two arms wrap around my waist and pull me back into a broad chest. I let out a small squeal and look up to see Owen's face. I smile and he spins me around so we're hugging.

"Why didn't you come see me earlier?"

"Umm, I was comfortable and didn't want to leave. Plus I don't completely trust him."

"Who, Zander?" He backs out of the hug.

"Yeah, I've heard bad things about him."

"I could say the same about your group."

"Owen, I trust my people-"

"And I trust mine."

"I'm looking out for you."

"I am as well!"

"I don't trust your people, you should hang out with mine."

"You know some of the people in my group!"

"Yeah, fucking Lucas."

"Owen, Jeremy is here too."

"Jeremy Jeremy?!"

"Yes..."

"Where is he?"

"What?"

"Where is he?"

"Why?"

"You know why."

"Owen, you can't do that. He had to leave, just like we did!"

"He did more than that. WHERE IS HE?!"

"What more did he do?"

"That doesn't matter!"

"It does!"

"Aven, just tell me where he is and we can get this over with."

"No!" He runs up to me and pushes my shoulders against the wall. I let out a small scream as he pins me there and continues to question. I feel the tears start to slip from my eyes. I raise my arms to wipe them away, but he just pins those instead of my shoulders. "P..please stop!"
