Graveyard

I was still a little uneasy about the information that was revealed to me by Keno. Strolling back to my dorm I took in the scenery of the strangest place I have ever seen. I walked passed something that looked like it was the boy dorms. There were a bunch of kids dressed in all black sitting on and around the wall by the entrance. The boys all wore deep black eye liner and black lipstick. Their accessories were collars and jewelry with spikes and chains. Some of them wore long black coats. Ok, so it gets better. This must be the goths. I recognized the look from a couple kids I saw in high school. They seemed very different, like straight out of a movie. They moved to the beat of their own drum. Then there was the group that dressed like an episode of mean girls. They were very blonde with a lot of make up on. I kept walking by. I guess ever educational institution had all the groups of people who hung out together. Quite a variety. Not sure where I fit in but it didn't bother me.

After locating most of my classes, I came across a building that was boarded up. It looked like it was condemned a long time ago. The windows were dark and some were broken. It was very similar to the back gate. It looked like no one maintained it or set foot in that area. Hmmm… more questions for my new friend, Keno. I bet he knows. He's probably used to all this weird stuff after three years. I walked away and head back to my dorm.

I finally made it back and walked into the suite. It looked like all of my roommates were finally there. There was luggage and things everywhere. So much for a little peace before class starts. One of the girls were setting up the top bunk across from my bunk. She spun around to dig into her suitcase. Her wet look curls that fell down to the end of her back followed her spin. She was a pretty girl. She had a beautiful smile and had good fashion sense it seemed. She looked like a Latina plus sized model. She wore a crossover shirt in olive green which tied towards her right side and fitted stretch jeans with tan, leather platform sandals. Hi! She squealed. I'm Lacy. Hi, I am Oshun. Nice to meet you. Igualmente. Hablas español? She asked. Un poco, I replied. Bueno, practicaremos este semestre. Ok, that would be awesome, I replied. I was excited she offered to help with my Spanish. Lord knows I was struggling.

The bottom bunk was already made up with purple and pink. There was a shaggy pink throw pillow and a smiley face pillow on it. Looks pretty neat, I thought. At the closet was the owner of the purple, happy face bed. She was short and slim with glasses. Her hair was curly blonde and up to the middle of her neck. She was dressed in an oversized t-shirt with leggings and flip flops. She was taking her clothes out of her bag and placing them in the closet and the drawer at the same time while listening to whatever was playing in her headphones.

We all had one drawer each. Not much for four girls. "Feel up baby feel on me, pull up if you're feeling lonely, Brra, ta, ta, tat. Shots, shots, shots, I'm drinking". My head snapped back to the closet. Wait… this little chic was listening to Nicki Minaj! Ok then, nice. I thought. I guess she felt me looking at her because she lifted her head up from her back to see me looking at her. Oh, hi. She said taking out one earphone. I'm Isabell. You can call me Bella. She said. Oshun, I said. Cool she said before putting in her earphone and continuing her turn up organizing session to Megatron. I Head over to my work station and pulled out "The Secret". I had been trying to read it for a while so I made it my goal to read a chapter every day until I was finished while I was there.

There was so much noise in the room with the girls setting up that I just decided to call Rob instead. I missed him anyway and I needed to hear a familiar voice. I walked out of the room and took a walk through the doors. Most of the students were inside their rooms getting ready for the semester. Hey babe, I said as he answered the phone. Hey Boogs, what's up? I miss you, I said. I may have sounded a little emotion because he asked if I was ok with a little concern in his voice. I'm ok. You know I don't let a lot of things bother me. This school is a little weird though. How so? He said. Well, there is a grave here. It belongs to this girl that died on campus. I am supposed to find out more info about it today. Umm, ok. So, a grave hun? That's pretty intense. I have never heard of that. Not on a campus. I guess every place is different. I guess, I said. Try not to let it freak you out Boogs. If you don't feel right you can come straight home. He said. I know babe. I just gotta focus and stop worrying. I miss you so much Rob. I miss you more love. Can't wait to kiss those beautiful lips again, I blushed at his flirtatious voice. Can I call you tonight? My dad has me on a project that I gotta get done. Of course, talk to you soon. Love you babe. Love you too Boogs. I blew him a kiss before hanging up. Talking to Rob relaxed me every single time. He knew me better than anyone.
