Looking around she noticed the cameras stationed outside looking down on her. She wondered again for the millionth time if she was making the right decision. She had no idea what to expect. The last thing she needed was sasaeng fans hunting her down to throw eggs at her. If the other occupants were just regular people like her, then hopefully that possibility would be low. However, this was Korea and all the other reality shows she'd ever seen had celebrities in it. So really, this could be anything. ********************** This is a rough draft, feel free to leave comments and suggestions. What works for you and what doesn't.

TRIGGER warning: contains acts of sexual assault, self-harm, and swearing *** 'Zander's lips curved into a soft smile. "No need to worry, Lala. It'll heal." His smooth voice was soothing to the ear but I didn't let it affect me- physically. "Lala?" I asked, changing the subject before I could let my thoughts wander. Zander shrugged, still smiling. It wasn't a big smile. It wasn't even a wicked smile. It was a genuine one. His damn dimples were showing again. "It's a nickname. Layla reminds me of Lala. Don't friends have nicks names?" He raised a challenging eyebrow, a deep twinkle within his captivating, honey-glazed eyes. *** It's only been two years since the night that made Layla Adams lose any and all trust she had in anyone. Desperate for a new life, she convinces her parents to move to a new state with the promise that she'll get her act together for senior year. Two years nearly wasn't enough to stop the nightmares but Layla has grown used to sleepless nights and eases her nerves through nicotine and caffeine. And maybe a mysterious new boy who moves in next door. But when Layla's very own nightmare comes back in the form of reality yet again, she's going to need a little more than cigarettes and coffee to keep her wits- and maybe her life.
