Chapter 1

I was jolted out of sleep by screaming coming from down the hall. I looked around making sure no one was in my room, but when I heard the laughter following the scream, I realized it was just Kylie getting her revenge on Rebecca. You see, Kylie got in some huge trouble by selling drugs to the other kids at the orphanage, and rumor has it that Rebecca is the one that told the security guard.

If Rebecca really did tell on Kylie, and I don't think she did, than she is more stupid than I thought. Everyone knew what Kylie did when someone even thought about crossing her. Now Rebecca eyes are on fire, because Kylie told me she was going to put bleach in her shampoo. Poor girl.

I sat up in bed and rubbed my eyes, I looked over at my roommate seeing she was still fast asleep in her bed, I quickly walked to the dresser and pulled out a shirt and some pants not caring if they matched. I quietly but quickly walked to the door trying not trip on the piles of clothes that dotted the floor if I fell there was no hope of getting out of here without Sara waking up. When I made it to the door without Sara waking up, I thought my day was already looking better, but that was immediately shot down when I opened the door and Kylie and her friends were standing there. Kylie looked like a girl you wouldn't want to mess with, the had short cropped black hair, narrowed angry black eyes and a scar down her cheek, and like me she was dressed in baggy black clothes.

How I wish I could tell her to leave me alone, but unless I wanted to have a knife in my shoulder I don't think that would be a wise choice.

" Helen wants you in her office," She gave me a glare that obviously told me to lie. No matter how close we may be, and trust me are close but only because I'm scared to death of her, and what better way to keep myself safe from her than becoming her 'best friend' but she still won't hesitate to make my life hell if I let any of her secrets out.

I nodded and started walking towards the councilors office, I expected Kylie to leave me alone and go off to make someone else miserable but when I looked behind she was following me. I turned around and pretended she wasn't there. It was working well until we made it to the office. She grabbed me by my neck and shoved me against the wall. I felt the sharp point of her knife press in to my side.

" Listen Melissa, keep your mouth shut are I'm going to make sure you will." She pressed the knife harder against my side to make her point clear. When I looked up to answer her I noticed a couple sitting in the waiting area, each of them were beautiful, It was hard to look away, and they were staring right at us with wide eyes, as if they could hear what she was saying.

" I am talking to you," Her voice was so cold it made me shudder.

I nodded my head towards the couple, once she saw them she back off and gave me one last look before walking off. When I looked over to the couple they were gone. I sighed and stepped in front of the door to the office hoping this won't take long. When I opened the door I couldn't help but gasp at the site in front of me
