The tearful good bye with her parents was not only depressing, but it brought into perspective of everything she would be leaving behind. She had grown up in Toronto, it was her home, and she knew nothing else. She would now be surrounded, with not only different people, but different surroundings.
Instead of wallowing in the sadness of being alone, she decided to embrace it. Sliding her over sized Chanel sun glasses over her eyes, she unrolled both the driver and passenger side windows, allowing the cool high way breeze to fill the car. Her hair blew in the wind as the song on the radio changed to Paris Hilton's new single. Not only was the song incredibly catchy, but the girl had a great voice. Paige sang along with Paris
"Even all the gods are crazy
Even all the stars are blind
If you show me real love, baby
I'll show you mine "
Before Paige knew it she had arrived in the parking lot to her new home. Pulling into a parking space beside a black SUV, she took in the sight of the buildings. They were old, but classy. Brown and red bricks were alternated between the building, various statues and moments sat in the middle of different grassy fields and courtyards. Forcing her eyes back to the trunk of her car, she tried to maneuver the luggage out of the car, without making a large commotion. Removing the suitcases had been the easy part, she soon realized as she tried to pull the five bags in her two hands. Just as the largest bag was about to hit the floor, a gorgeous young man caught it with one hand, lightly setting it upward.
"I see someone over packed, just a little bit." The guy allowed a smile to creep over his lips
"Just a little" Paige said, making the single with her thumb and forefinger.
"Don't worry about it, it's a freshman thing. I did the exact same thing last year."
"How'd you know I'm a freshman?" Paige asked a little confused.
"You have the freshman like innocence and you've been starring at the building for the past ten minutes." The guy clucked as her swung Paige's shoulder bag around his right shoulder and took the two largest rolling bags in his hands.
Paige struggled to keep up with the boy, the very cute sophomore boy, whose name she did not yet know. The walk to wherever he was taking her seemed to take forever. Finally the boy stopped in front of the smallest building.
"Admission hall, it's where all the information for the freshmen and new students is. I'd go in with you, but I've got to be somewhere in like ten minutes. Good Luck, Freshie"
"It's actually Paige" Paige yelled after the boy, but he was gone. Most likely to meet his gorgeous girlfriend, who would just happen to be the same age as him. Paige groaned as she tried to get all of her bags through the small entrance at once.
