I sigh as I pull at the passenger side door handle, quietly thanking Colby for a nice night, or a semi nice night. She nods her head in agreement and promises to call me soon, probably tomorrow. I close the car door and start making my way towards the dorms of Juilliard. The hallway is quiet and I carfully dig around in my pockets for my keys.

"Shit." I mumble, realizing that I lost them.

This is not the best way to start my first year of college. I contemplate knocking on the door, in hopes that my room mate might hear, but then again it is about 1 o'clock in the morning and I don't really want to deal with the consequences of pissing her off. I turn on my heels and start to walk back down the corridor when I hear the dorm room door open slightly.

"Sophia?" my room mate calls out softly.

"Kat?" I ask, squinting my eyes slightly.

"What are you doing out in the hallways so early in the morning?" Kat scolds, crossing her arms; more due to the cold but I still feel like a little child being scolded.

"Colby and I went to The Rave tonight, and I lost my room key somewhere." I reply, hanging my head as I mumble the last part.

"Lost your key? More like you left it on the mother-ducking desk before you left." Kat whispers harshy while beckoning me into the room.

I rush forwards and squeeze past Kat, hearing the door click behind me. The room is suddenly flooded by light and I can see Kats weary face now.

"I'm sorry for waking you, but thanks for saving my ass there. I really didn't want to have to sleep in the hallway." I grumble, flopping onto my soft bed.

"Next time you better not forget your key or else you will be sleeping out there. Now turn the lights off and get some sleep, I don't want to be tired on the first day of College, Sophmores are required to already know the drill." she says laying herself under the sheets of her own bed.

"Night Kat." I call out.

"Whatever." she mumbles in response.

I smile to myself while closing my eyes. Sleep never came so quickly before in my life.

Early the ext morning I woke up in a cold sweat. Looking at my clock I realize that I only have a little over an hour until my first class starts; 9 o'clock sharp. I roll out of bed and pad across the cold wooden floor, wishing for some warm fuzzy socks. I make my way to the bathroom and start the shower. When the water warms up and wash my hair and body quickly. I hope out, reaching for the towel rack and wrap the towel around me. Walking back to the small bedroom area I reach into my drawers and pull out a strapless red sun dress with a gold waist line, and throw on my gold ballet flats. I then grab a pair of underwear and a bra before re-entering the bathroom. I blow dry my hair and straighten it before throwing on my clothes and applying makeup. Once my lip gloss has been applied I walk to my bed, checking the clock before waking up Kat.

"Kat?" I say quietly, reaching across the room for her.

I gently tap her shoulder and she groans.

"Go away." she says sharply.

"Kat, you have about an hour to get ready for school." I infrom, shaking her awake.

"What?" she asks, rubbing her eyes and looking at me.

"You need to get ready for class now." I answer, pulling her sheets off her.

"Alright, alright, no need to get pushy, give me a few minutes." she grumbles and she steps out of the bed.

I sit on the edge of mine, picking at my nails an humming softly. I watch Kat as she rushes around to get ready, clothes flying everywhere.

"How this look?" she asks, guesturing to her outfit.

She is wearing black fit skinny jeans, a Black Veil Brides band tee and converse sneakers. Her short brown hair curls up at the tops of her ears and her pale skin radiates against all the black clothing.

"Are you really going to wear that on your first day?" I ask casually.

"Of course, why wouldn't I?" she scoffs, reaching under her bed for her black bag.

"Well, I mean, first days are all about impressions." I reply carefully.

"And I'm making the impression that this is my style of music, and screw you if you don't like it!" Kat exclaims, pushing her hair behind her ears.

I laugh a bit; it's rare to hear her swear, but don't be surprised if she does over something she believes in. I stand up from the bed and nervously pat down my dress. I'm beginning to feel a bit self concious and Kat seems to notice.

"Hey, we have about half an hour before class starts, do you want to get coffee?" she offers, opening our dorm's door.

"Hell yeah!" I exclaim, bouncing a bit in my step. I love coffee, it's an addiction of mine.

I follow Kat across the street of our College and to the nearest coffee shop. I get an iced medium carmel coffee, creme and sugar added in. I reach for my wallet to pay, but Kat stops me.

"You're a Freshman this year, and as a welcome gift I buy a coffee in your honor. Here you go." she says, handing me my coffee.

"Next time, I buy you something." I state, quietly taking a sip of the cold liquid and savoring the carmel flavoring.

"Alright." she agrees.

We both head back to the school and depart on out separate ways. Kat and I have known eachother since I was a freshman back in high school. In fact, Kat, Colby and I were and still are the best of friends. Once we say our goodbyes and promise eachother to meet up later tonight I walk to my first class. Which is Music Theory. I open the class door and step in, walking into someone's chest.

"Watch were you're going little lady!" the man exclaims.

I look up in shock, recognising him immediatley.

"Austin?!?" I asks, his chocolate brown eyes staring back at me.
