I finally made it home and all I hoped was that my parent's didn't notice, I walked in the door and my mom saw me. "Hey where were you?" she said, "um out" I said back as I ran upstairs, running into my dad. "Orianna Skye Chapman" he said, "hi daddy" I said hoping he wasn't going to be to mad. "Care to tell me where you have been?" he said, "I was out" I said, "where?" he asked. I wasn't sure what he knew, "just went for a walk" I said. "Care to tell me again or are you going to keep lying?" he said, "depends what do you know?" I asked, "Where were you?" he asked, "I went to see someone" I said that technically wasn't a lie. "Where?" he said, "I have a feeling you know already" I said, "tell me" he said, "daddy please don't be mad I miss him" I said. "That's funny coming from the girl who cared less about him when he was here. Orianna we all miss your brother but you going to Toronto alone is not okay" he said. "I know daddy and I won't do it again" I said. "Well regardless you are grounded" he said, "I thought I already was?" I said. "Well its longer now" he said walking downstairs, I knew Max told him but why did he rat me out.

I called him but he didn't answer typical, I wasn't going to spam call him this time it wasn't important. Everything about being a teenager sucked and I just wanted my older brother here. I have no idea why most of the time I hated him but there was something about being in high school without him that sucked. It could be the boys or the dumb girls who think they are better then me. I mean I have Penny but that is not enough, I though I was pretty but I guess I am not. The mean girls as I call them keep calling me fat but I mean I am only 120 pounds how is that fat? I just don't get it they can't be that much skinnier than me. I sometime just wish I could fast forward my life, because these mean girls were making it hard for me to find a boyfriend. Either that or all the guys in Adventure Bay just sucked.

I saw a missed call from my sister, and I knew she found out I told dad but I had too. I needed her to get that what she did was wrong. I just hoped dad wasn't to hard on her, I mean I knew he wouldn't be Orianna was still his little princess. It was finally the weekend again and rather than go home since we would be going for thanksgiving next weekend we decided to stay. "Oh my gosh there is a party tonight we need to go" Klea said. "Parties never turn out good for me" I said, "too bad I need you to come go get ready and the girls and I will pick you all up" Klea said running off. I walked into my dorm and both Adam and Hunter were there, "hey" Hunter said, "hey Klea is making us go to a party" I whined, "ha yeah she just texted me it won't be that bad" Adam said, "it will be worse" I said. "What makes you so sure?" Hunter said, "knowing my history I just have a feeling" I said. "Right but this time Aria will be there" Hunter said giving me a wink. What difference was that going to make, I mean I am sure there was someone here who hated me. I seemed to attract that kind of thing, bullies of all sorts. I mean I know my friends will back me up but still it just had me thinking. The good new is that Scarlett finally left. My dad's threat actually worked, at least I haven't seen her around anymore. Who knows though she could be lurking in the shadows ready to pounce at any moment. Now I was just being dumb, what was she going to do, scratch me, she was not exactly the biggest and I could take her. "MAX" Hunter said my name loudly, "what?" I said, "dude you are so out of it, maybe you should stay home" he said, "I am fine what?" I said, "get dressed dude Klea and the girls are coming and you look like crap" Hunter said. "Gee thanks" I said what a great friend he was, I grabbed some clean clothes and ran to have a quick shower. I wanted to at least impress Aria a little bit.

I was no nervous about this party I just wanted it to go well, I really did, but something was nagging me. I made it back to the dorm just as the girls arrived, Aria smiled at me and we all walked to this party together. "We stick together" Klea said, "yes" the girls replied. Strength in numbers I guess, but everyone was to always get separated at parties, the first thing everyone did was grab a few drinks. I mean I grabbed one too just so I could fit in but I didn't want it. Everyone was having a good time, I was too but I felt like I was being watched. It could just be a coincidence, because I knew Klea and Hunter were both keeping an eye on me. I was dancing with Aria but this felt too real, like it wasn't a friendly stare. "Max are you okay?" Aria asked, "I am good, I um just need to use the bathroom" I lied as I ran upstairs, why I did that I don't know. I mean now I was trapped and if I was being watched they probably followed me. I found the bathroom and locked myself inside. "Max you are being an idiot, a hot girl is hitting on you and you are being an idiot" I said to myself. I took a few deep breaths and went back to Aria. I couldn't find her, I looked around for any of my friends and they were all gone.

"Well well what do we have here?" I heard a voice, I recognized it, "Shane" I said, "you guessed it twerp. Now come with me" he said, "what why?" I asked, "I need your help" he said. I didn't know if this was a trick or not, "just let me tell my friends" I said, "come on it won't take long" he said pulling me along. I couldn't fight him off even if I wanted too, I knew this couldn't be good. I had no idea what he wanted but I guess I was going to find out.
