A/N Hi! Welcome to my first story! I'm sorry the chapters will be short, but I figure having the chapters shorter helps me publish at a timely manner. That way I won't get tired so quickly and stop writing. I'm not sure when I will be publishing the next chapter yet but I do have the first few chapters all done and ready. I was thinking maybe once or twice a week. I'll figure out more soon and let you all know! Thank you so much for reading my story! I hope you enjoy it! Feel free to leave me reviews to comment, question, or simply say hi.

Chapter 1

BPOV

"That should be the last of it," I told my best friend of 10 years. Angela and I had just finished unpacking my last box of belongings. I was attending the University of Washington in a month and had just moved into my campus apartment. Angela, the greatest person ever, was staying closer to home in Forks. She was planning to attend a community college as well as taking care of her sick mother. Even so, she decided to help me move in and made the drive in her own car to help me bring the rest of my stuff.

"I'm going to miss you so much," she said as she hugged me.

"Thank you, thank you so much for helping me. I'm going to miss you too. I'm so glad Charlie gave me the SUV to take to college so that I can drive around and visit whenever I can." Charlie, my father, had finished fixing up a used SUV he bought from a friend of his. His friend, Billy, had no use for the car as it was simply sitting in his garage collecting dust. Billy jumped at the offer the moment my dad decided he wanted to fix it up so that I would have a car to use while I was away. Thank goodness for that.

"When is your roommates moving in?" Angela asked.

"Irina said she's coming probably the end of this week. Tanya and Alice said they're moving in closer to school time since they are on vacation. So probably not for another month for them," I answered. My apartment was a 2 bed, 2 baths. I got the email two months ago about my housing assignment and my three randomly assigned roommates who I have not met yet. I'll be sharing a room with Alice. Tanya and Irina will be sharing the other room. All of us were first years. Alice and Tanya were both Psychology major. Irina was a biology major. I was getting my child development major and hopefully my teaching credential soon after that. I always have a love for children and found teaching to be my passion.

"Will you be okay alone? I can make arrangements to stay with you if you would like," Angela suggested worryingly.

I laughed. "I'll be fine! I'll just get settled in and go exploring the area in my free time. Go home and be with your family!"

"Remember your pepper spray! Stranger danger! Don't stay out too late! Always lock your door!" Angela crazily started listing all the possible warnings she can come up with.

"Go, go, crazy! Call me when you're home so that I'll know you're back safely," I said and pushed her to the parking lot. We gave each other one last hug before she got into her car and drove off. I kept waving until her car was out of site.

Well, here goes! To a new beginning. I could not wait to see what the future had in store for me.

A/N I know it's a very basic start, but I promise there will be so much more coming up. Leave me a review! :)
