"¿Cómo dices...How are you?" Mr. Wasserstein asks the class and only own kid raises their hand.

"Cómo estás" the kid answers

"Yes very good Malcolm"

I wanted to kill myself.I couldn't wait to leave this place tonight.I had already face timed with Kartini and Alec making plans for the night for a party to be thrown at Angelo's Fraternity. Kartini was going to be our getaway car away from this place and everyone was going to love me for it.

I invited Scarlett to the party along with the guys.I couldn't sneak the whole school out,they can't even all fit in Kartini's jeep,it just wouldn't have worked.Even if I wanted to, so she was the last person I invited.but if I could the only people who wouldn't be invited would be Lux and Maddox.

I exited the classroom and skipped to the boy's dormitory.Girls were allowed there during the day but not at all at night.I needed to find Ryder or Hunter and go over my plan with them for tonight it was mandatory that everyone knew how and when we were sneaking out or else the whole thing would fall apart.

So I walked aimlessly around these unknown halls and found myself in a room of steam and moisture.Am I blind or something? I must be blind if I could not tell that I had walked into the boy's shower room.I shut my eyes at the sight of all the naked bodies in towels and turned on my heel and out of the room.The most embarrassing part is I think I found Ryder and Hunter.

I lean on the wall across from the showers and wait for one of them to exit fully clothed.It took a while but eventually, Hunter walked out running his hand through his wet thick golden hair.

"Did you like what you saw back there?" He chuckles silently.

I roll my eyes playfully and end up smiling at the floor "We need to talk" I bite my lip.

"What's up?"

I explain to him about tonight and how he should explain it to Ryder and the rest of the guys.

"Tonight's going to be wild! I haven't been to a party since freshman of primary school and there was barely anything there.I just can't believe I didn't think about sneaking out sooner"

"Yeah well let's just say sneaking out is another reason I was a force here" I shrug and then Ryder walks out of the shower room still pulling his shirt over his head.

"Aerona? You just couldn't get enough of me could you?" Ryder teases and I shake my head at him and wave them both off.I couldn't help but think that I had just made two new really good friends including Scarlett.Yeah, Ryder seemed to really want to get in my pants but he was just a plain old tease, like most guys with their ego...right?

I enter my dorm and find Scarlett straightening her hair with her purple flat iron in her wooden desk chair."Hey" she says while ironing a strand of hair.

"Hey, you getting ready?"

"Mhmm I'm doing your makeup ok" she states

"Err...uh ok...I mean I can do it myself but—?"

"No it's just I haven't been out or gotten ready with a friend in ages, it's more of me thing" she put her flat iron into her drawer after unplugging it and pulled her now straight blonde hair into a high ponytail effortlessly. She was dressed in a dark purple and black sleeveless dress that stopped at the midway of her thighs.

"Ok sit" she pulled the chair up to me and I slouched down when I sat."Sit up" she pulled me to sit upright on the shoulders and then grabbed two of my makeup bags.She pulled out my CVS foundation first and smeared it all over my face with my pink beauty blender as I look up at the ceiling.She covered my dark circles and blemishes with my NARS concealer and then curled my lashes along with some mascara for length.She took my ColourPop 'might be' highlight and dabbed it on my cheekbones, the tip of my nose and chin.Lastly, she grabbed the 'bad girl' eyeshadow and sparkles my eyes with it.

"Gorgeous now for the lips" she sighs while digging through my bag in frustration "Ugh where is it?!"

I stand up and grab my leather jacket and take out the dark NARS matte lipstick I brought from home and take the mirror she had on her desk.I stain my lips with its color and make that Pop sound after.

"Great now I'm going to go do my makeup and you-you should get dressed," she says pointing at my uniform and I sigh turn to face the wall and remove my clothing one by one.I dig through my drawer to find at least one good outfit for the night; a Rose Gold Sequin Long Sleeve V Front party dress that I obtained from Kartini a while back in freshman year.

I slipped it on and gawked at my own appearance in Scarlett's mirror.I push my feet into my long heels and zip them on.I pull over my hoodie that covered most of my small body and the dress so I'd be incognito when sneaking out tonight.

"Damn we look hot" Scarlett smirks and leans on her bedside admiring herself.

"So genius when do we escape this prison?" She asks.The bell for dinner at the canteen goes off and I smile evilly "Right about now" I tell her and she pushes herself up, I could not wait for the plan to fall into play.Pray that everything tonight goes well!
