The High Horse Dorm:

Caitie's POV

ALPHA'S ACADEMY

BANQUET HALL

SUNDAY, AUGUST 31

7:21 P.M

I sat at the High Horse table and took in all of its decorations. The chairs were actually like horses! The table cloth was an expensive lace and our champagne flutes were filled with sparkling apple cider. I can tell our table was the one that…well you know, cost the most. This dorm was perfect for me and I can tell I would wrap my girls around my French manicured finger. As I twirled my perfectly straightened, golden hair, I watched as a girl with golden hair and red streaks approach the table.

"Uh excuse me, the honors table is over there." I pointed to the table that said honors above it. The girl didn't walk over or say thank you, she just sat down on one of the horses and took a sip of the apple cider.

"This is the high horse table, right?" she said putting down her glass. Obviously, was it not noticeable from the horse that she was sitting on?

"Yes, but even a one year old who couldn't read could figure that out." I rolled my eyes.

"Well I belong here then. Hi, I'm Zoe Lauryn Santimere, but just call me Zoe." Zoe held out her hand. I just stared at it. Who knows what germs someone with that hair could have!

"And I'm Caitie Shea, as if you didn't know that. And you can call me Caitie Shea." I flipped my hair.

"First and last? I'll just stick to Caitie. You're a mean one huh? Where are you from?" Zoe asked.

"LA but just recently moved to New York for modeling. And you're from?" I asked her as I shifted on the horse.

"I'm from Texas! And no, I'm not one of those trashy southern girls. I grew up mostly in the country club and my huge estate."

Hm, maybe I should actually give this girl a chance. I mean she obviously is worth my respect since she got accepted into the high horse dorm in the first place.

"Oh I absolutely love people from Texas! And especially the 'cowboys'." I winked which made her laugh.

"Oh tell me about it! All the guys were like my best friends! I mean I had girl best friends but only a select few were worth my time. The others caused way too much drama and all I want to do is party and have a great time." Zoe waved her hands in the air. As she looked around the room, I quickly observed her outfit. She was wearing a peach, tight body con dress with gold gladiator heels. Her golden hair was in perfect (but not as perfect as mine) spiral curls with red streaks and plump, red lips. Those could not be real…injection? Maybe I should ask to be sure. I think I was going to get along with Zoe after all and she looked so innocent it'd be so easy to win her over.

"So where are the other girls?" I looked at the empty seats.

"It could be their flight? Or maybe fashionably late?" Zoe laughed. I looked around the room and noticed that we were the only table that didn't have everyone. Boy do they need to get off their high horse? (a/n: see what I did there?)

Just then as we continued talking the doors burst open and the only thing I could see were body guards headed for our table.

A/N: Okay so I'm really bad at cliffhangers and I know this was kind of short but I wanted to get into the next chapter! The next chapter goes to the party dorm but it would include other dorm members to so look out for that chapter!
