"you seriously did that! THAT's how you got in here?"

"yeah! I played a guitar from a case that was supposed to be restricted because it was signed by my Idol- jean simmons- and now I'm stuck in here for touching it!" I laughed, we ate some more glop from our trays and continued to talk.

"how is it being the only girl here?" he asked suddenly, making my eyes open wide.

"its fine I guess, I don't really know anything different though-"

"I mean- If I was the only guy here than that would mean multiple girls hitting on me wherever I went. That happens to you, I'm around you a lot of the time."

"yeah, I guess that happens a lot. I think its just that guys are more aware of something when there is less of it. so when I'm the only girl they will get to see in the next eighteen months, they jump on the opportunity."

"exactly. That's why I asked about you being the only girl here, is it okay?"

"I guess… the boys here are easy enough to handle and I'm good at handleing things anyways," he laughed, making me smile. We both prodded at our "food" and continued this conversation for a long time. I was still thinking about the gun that he somehow possessed…sadly I don't believe him, no one- especially not Mr. sir- would give a minor a gun in a correctional facility. I know I wouldn't! I would keep one under lock and key and possibly even some kind of alarm system.

We sat in silence, listening to the whole room scream and laugh and be boys, which I was so not going to get in the way of. A discusted smirk came onto my face as one of them across the isle put some food in his mouth and spat it at the dude sitting next to him.

Our table was rowdy too, and me and peels where probably the only ones actually eating the slop that was set before us.

I took the time to observe the guys I haven't really gotten to know much lately as they sat there, pushing each other and occasionally scooping the mush into their mouths messily.

There was bruise. Tall, handsome, dark skinned. He had a weave that he "gave himself", and a dream to become a cosmetologist. He had thick muscles and REALLY white teeth that shone when he smiled…but so far, I knew his attitude was gruff and mean. He wasn't very funny, but people laughed at his jokes because they thought he would punch their teeth in.

Then there was sweat sock. His name said it all. He sweat buckets on top of buckets and wouldn't stop for anybody. He was large (no offense to him) and extremely funny.

My eyes trailed down the table, peels had started a conversation with eyelash. His long black hair swept his shoulders, and his super long eyelashes batted at the air as if they could start a tornado. I could tell immediately that he was fit. The jumpsuit was baggy on him, and his arms were ripped beyond compare to bruise's. He had that one accent that surfer dudes have, he said "riotous" a lot, and called everything cool. He went with the flow all the time, and he walked with his head wagging and slightly bent forward as if everything was awesome. He came from California. He has a light tan and a tattoo of a turtle on his lower back…yeah…he showed me…

I looked over at Rex, he was laughing hard. His blonde hair with a streak of black in it covered his blue eyes. He had perfect teeth, a permanent smirk on his face. Rex is the "ladies man" of the group. He wont stop hitting on me, a few times he asked if he could put my sunscreen on for me. He was skinny and short, but he was reaaallly pretty! I don't think I could call him handsome though, he is just to good looking for that. He is only about five inches shorter than me though. The tallest in the group was peels.

"so yesterday-" began rex, putting his hand on bruise's shoulder, "-layers finished second, right after you. how can that be? Can you answer that? She has only been here for about a week… but- doesn't that mean she gets to move up in the water line? You know-" then it hit me.

There is only one girl here.

One.

And that's me… and I finished second!

"wait a second!" I said, making rex look at me. "Who's layers?"

They all laughed at me…making me frown.

"yo peels!" he nodded at me.

"fine." And peels turned to me, smiling. "So layers. Tell us how you got that hole dug so fast!" I gaped.

"I- I just dug!" they laughed harder.

"So layers?"

"Hey layers?"

"how layers?

"Sup layers?"

"I'm LAYERS!" and they laughed, making me jump up and down in my seat with excitement.
