"This can't be happening! I've never died on such a low level!" Thomas yelled to himself down the hall. Thomas was addicted to his DS; no one could get him off of it when he started playing. Downstairs, I could the clicking of my moms' heals and the thump of my dads sneakers as they walked up the grand stair case. I could discreetly hear the creaking of the old fan in my dorm over the sound of the fireworks. I was standing out on my dorms' balcony and staring at the fireworks shooting into the sky in dazzling colors, making the black sky look like it was bedazzled. The wind picked up and the cold bit at my cheeks and my nose. It was surprising how chilly it was for August. I leaned into Josh and put my head on his chest. He wrapped his arms around me and rested his chin on the top of my head. With mild interest, we were both staring out at the "end of summer" fireworks that Roseville always shot off on the last night of summer.
"I'm glad you're here," I admitted to him." We were at my school; Gallagher Academy for Girls. I know what your thinking; why would I be at school in the middle of summer? Well, because my moms' the headmistress and my dad is the Countries of the World teacher, that's why. I spend my summer, spring and winter breaks at the school, unless we go on vacation. I don't really mind being here except for the fact that I only often get to see my boyfriend of two years, Josh. He is a junior, like me, at Roseville High. Josh is allowed to visit on weekends and when we have school dances and prom.
"I'm glad I'm here too," he told me, his voice muffled through my hair. We stood there a little longer before Josh had to leave. Once he left I threw on my Pajamas and crawled into bed. I pulled the covers up to my chin and listened to the crickets chirping outside. For some reason, I felt nervous for the beginning of the year, and I could already tell something was going to go wrong.
