Chapter 2. I've decided to continue on writing so at least, if you liked the first chapter, you wouldn't have to wait for the next :) Hope you like it.

Oh and I'm putting it in POVs now. I'm probably going to be doing Ally's mostly, so yeah.

Don't forget to review and follow :) Stay Auslly! Mwah x


Adam wrapped his muscular hand around the gold doorknob, the light from the sun bouncing of it prettily. He twisted it and carefully pushed the door open revealing a large spacious reception. It was entirely made out of marble and the cool air conditioning could be felt as soon as they opened the

door. Comfortable looking turquoise couches sat opposite a large mahogany desk. A woman seated at the desk, a telephone placed to her ear and a pen in her hand, busy scribbling down details onto a piece of paper. Adam and I approached her desk, our footsteps echoed in the large room. We

stood in front of the desk and the lady didn't even look up. She was fair and wore thin-rimmed glasses. She was probably in her late thirties but looked way younger and had beautiful sapphire like blue eyes and radiated the glorious smell of vanilla. As she didn't look up, Adam decided to make a small

'ahem' sound and surprisingly her head shot up immediately. She glanced at Adam and I and smiled lightly, before she lifted up a slender, carefully manicured finger as if to say 'one minute'. "Okay good-bye", she said into the telephone, before she placed it back unto it's stand and dropped her pen.

She looked up at Adam and I and laced her fingers together as she smiled at us, showing pearly white teeth. "Hello, I am Mimi Moon, secretary here at S.C.A, I'm guessing you are Adam and Allyson Dawson", she said to us, a friendly tone in her voice as she picked up a sheet of paper and read our

names. Adam and I nodded, but inwardly I felt like rolling my eyes. I hated being called Allyson, but this woman was so nice, I didn't want to make a bad impression on my first day. "Well it's lovely to meet you both, I'll get someone to show you to your dorms and you can unpack and perhaps rest

before this evening's event", she said and picked up the phone once more and then placed it down again. Moments later, two students, one a girl, the other a boy arrived in the hall. The girl was short with curly brown hair and a slightly tanned complexion, as well as a huge smile. The boy was

extremely tall and had short red hair and a gazillion freckles and a seemingly calm aura. They were both in a uniform. My eyes nearly popped out of her head when I saw them. Uniforms? Wow, this day just kept getting better and better. I thought, all the sarcasm in the world implied. Mimi stood up and

headed over to the boy and girl. "This is Patricia De La Rosa and this is Desmond Roberts, they will both be one of your room-mates and your guides until you've settled in properly", she said with a smile. "Allyson dear, Patricia will take you to the girl's dormitory in the east wing and Adam, Desmond

will take you to the boy's dormitory in the west wing", she said and before she turned to head down a long, portrait lined hallway, she added; "Oh and I hope you enjoy your time here at Sunset Cove Academy", she said with a beaming smile, sounding almost to much like an air-hostess or a pilot on a plane. I knew that this was not something I was looking forward to, but maybe the journey ahead would be slightly better.


As Mimi disappeared down the hall, Patricia turned to face me and smiled. I didn't want to seem rude and decided to smile back before I introduced myself. "Hi, I'm Allyson, I mean Ally Dawson, nice to meet you Patricia", I said in a friendly tone. Patricia grinned. "Oh please, call me Trish, everyone

does, nice to meet you Ally", she said in an optimistic, over-bubbly voice. I was slightly taken aback by this. I had half expected that Patricia, /Trish/ would say something like 'Okay, you know I'm Patricia, now follow me', and act all snobby, but she didn't. She seemed like a generally nice person. I

had just perceived such, as movies and books I'd seen and read had implied that boarding schools were strict and dark and scary and all the people in it were snobby or mean or boring, and not the /good/ boring, like me. "Okay..Trish...where's our dormitory?" I asked Trish politely and then looked over

my shoulder at her brother and Desmond who seemed to be hitting it off big time, because they had laughed at something and then began walking towards their dorm. Adam caught my glance as he walked away, he shouted: "Bye sis, catch you later", over his shoulder, before he disappeared out

the entrance and turned right. "Our dormitory is that way", Trish said pointing left towards the east and grabbed my wrist and pulled me towards the door. I grabbed unto my suitcase and guitar-case and let myself be dragged out the door of the main building and back in the luxurious outside

ambiance. Trish dragged me further, to the east wing of the estate towards a large building that resembled the main building slightly but differed because it had two extra floors, balconies and was decorated slightly with colourful flowers. "Wow", I breathed, admiring the gorgeous building. Trish

grinned and nodded. " I know right, that;s what I said when I first saw it", she shared with me and I smiled and looked up and the building, admiring the fine architecture. After about five minutes of staring, Trish sighed and turned to me. "Come on Ally, let's go inside", she said and grabbed my wrist

once more and dragged me into the building. The first thing I felt was another cool blast of air conditioning and then I glanced around a saw a foyer. It was dead classy. The walls were a shade of champagne and a chandelier hung from the ceiling. A long staircase spiraled all the way up the five floors,

the railing engraved with ethnic designs. The room was silent. "Wow", I repeated and Trish smiled and nodded again. "I know, it's amazing, you're probably going to say wow when you see the /rest/ of the dormitory", she said and walked over to a door at the far side of the foyer and gestured for me to follow her.


With a small sigh I collapsed onto the fluffy white bed in the bedroom. I was exhausted after the car ride, but now I was beyond tired after Trish's dorm tour. The dormitory was bigger than I thought. It had a lounge, a kitchen, a study and a practice room. It also had the bedrooms and bathrooms and

behind it, had a small garden with manicured sage green grass that was peppered with an array of gorgeous flowers and blossoms. As Trish had showed me everything I really wondered where I was. I felt like I didn't belong here. It was so luxurious and glamorous and it practically /screamed/

perfection. That didn't seem me. Then I thought about my dad. It must have cost him a fortune to send both me and Adam here. Why would he though? He could have just enrolled us in a normal high school, but here he was, picking a posh fancy one. I was so wrapped up in my thoughts, that I thought myself to sleep, thoughts still floating in my mind as I slept.


"Ally, Ally wake up", I heard a voice say for the second time that day. My eyes fluttered open and I saw a Latina girl standing above me, in a really pretty black dress. At first I was sort of frightened but then realized where I was and recognized the Latina girl as Trish. "Yes", I asked softly, not lifting

my head from the extremely comfortable pillow and closing my eyes once more. "You have to get up Ally, you only have fifteen minutes to get ready for the welcome party or we'll be late", she said in a worried tone. My eyes immediately opened I shot up. "Wel..wel..welcome..wh..what?", I stammered

uneasily. "Par-tee", Trish said slowly and carefully like she was talking to a five year old and I raised an eyebrow. "I didn't know there was going to be a party", I said, but more likely whispered. "That's weird, didn't Mimi tell you about it?", she asked. I closed my eyes and tried to remember the few

words Mimi had said to us, and once sentence lingered in my mind 'I'll get someone to show you to your dorms and you can unpack and perhaps rest before this evening's event'. I froze. "Um...Trish..I don't know if I want to go, I'm not really a 'party' person", I said and laughed awkwardly. I wasn't lying, I

really wasn't and I also wasn't in the mood to socialize with people, I still felt really tired from the long day. "But Ally you have to, it'll be fun",Trish said with a big smile and I sighed. "Fine, but only because I know Adam will be there", I said and she clapped her hands together. Unlike me, Adam was a

social butterfly and was confident, cool and popular. It was weird that we were twins, and practically opposites but we still managed to get along perfectly. I dragged myself out of the warmth of the bed and threw my suitcase open. Judging from Trish's dress, the party was formal and luckily, I had

brought one formal dress. I picked up the red strapless dress from the case, and held it up to my body. "Will this be okay?" I asked and she smiled and I took that as a yes. I slipped off my current attire and slid the dress on as well as a pair of tiny red heels. Trish helped me to do my hair in this pretty

pinned up way with a few curls dangling over my face nicely. She also did my makeup, applying a red-based lip-gloss onto my lips, mascara and eyeliner to my eyes and blushing my cheeks lightly with a soft pink. When she was done and I looked in the mirror, I actually couldn't believe it was me. I looked

like a whole different person and I found myself smiling. Trish looked at me and rolled her eyes playfully. "Come on Beauty, let's get there and then you can get vain", she joked and I giggled and got up and followed her out of the dormitory.


We walked back towards the main school building, where music could be heard from the inside. I smiled as we walked inside and met a few students on the way, who greeted Trish and looked at me weirdly, causing me to blush. As we actually entered the real party venue, I could see about a

hundred students, dancing, joking, laughing, talking, socializing and felt an uneasy feeling in the pit of my stomach. I hated social gatherings, I wasn't a great conversationalist, and I was as shy as hell. Trish grabbed my wrist and led me deeper into the room and over to a pretty girl with light brown,

nearly blonde straight hair and pearly blue-white eyes. As we approached her, Trish let out a small squeal and screamed 'Cassidy!" and the girl turned and upon seeing Trish her eyes lit up and she pulled her into a hug, "Trish!". The two girls had a tiny conversation before Trish pulled me forward.

"Cass, this is my friend and our new roommate Ally Dawson", she said and I smiled slightly at the pretty girl, who was clad in a pastel blue strapless dress. "Hi", I said softly and she grinned. "Hey Ally, nice to meet you", she said and I was about to reply when someone came over to us. The person

was a guy, clad in a handsome tuxedo. He snaked a hand around Cassidy's waist and kissed her cheek. I looked at him, and had to try my best not to let my jaw drop to the floor. He was the definition of /gorgeous/. He had fair skin, and dirty blonde hair that flopped just the right way. He had the

cutest smile and even in his tux, I could make out a swim-suit model worthy body. "Oh and this is Austin", Trish chimed in and he turned to me. His pearlescent hazel eyes seemed to bare into me and I felt my face turning red. He chuckled lightly. "Hi, I'm Austin", he said, even though Trish had

already introduced him. "Al..Al..Ally", I struggled to get out and smiled weakly, feeling my face burn. Austin grinned and I put my head down, Despite this, I could still tell he was staring at me and when I put my head up again, Cassidy had her arms around his neck and she pulled him into a kiss. And for some strange reason, I felt even sicker to my stomach than I had before I came here. Why?
